There is not enough action available to compensate for misaligned thought

There is not enough action available to compensate for misaligned thought.

--Abraham-Hicks: Money, and the Law of Attraction

I'm a fan of Abraham-Hicks, Byron Katie and Ferris Bueller, the trinity of personal growth in my brain. They each offer their distinct flavor of inspiration and relief and reinvigoration of living for me, and I appreciate the heck out them.

I've been noticing a pattern in my thoughts that I'm declaring to ditch, or replace with something else, another kind of pattern that serves me rather than locks in the staleness.

That would be misaligned thought, or strands of thought that because they are so practiced, they slip out into the neuropathways unbidden and unwelcome, but oh so familiar.

The patterns I want to release to the ethers to be activated no more are reactivity to what others might say or do, judgment of what myself and others might say or do, and the ever popular "oh my god, what would that mean if I actually did that?".

I want to make these thought processes conscious and transparent so I can see them for what they are--noise--diffuse the intensity around them, and substitute a different story.

This is called the immersion method of transformation. Learning a foreign language in this way reduces the amount of time it takes to actually speak and hear and maybe even write in a lexicon other than your mother tongue. I propose to immerse myself in awareness of what thoughts are running me, cancel and delete them whenever possible, and rewrite my story according to how I want it to be, thus reducing the amount of time I am stuck with what I've manifested thus far.

Which isn't all pain and dreariness, I should clarify. I'm just wanting to claim the rest of my birthright.

I've done this kind of all-out revamp campaign before. I read several books by Jonathon Randolph Pierce in a few weeks' time and observed as I found myself a few months later working in a new position earning 25% more than I had been. Amazing stuff.

So I'm basing this latest effort on previous success, and lining up an equally formidable board of advisers to inform my strategy. Of course this type of endeavor requires commitment, a genuine desire to change, and getting to a place of knowing that it is going to happen.

Otherwise it languishes on the vine like every other well-intentioned attempt to rewire beliefs.

I fully expect a new crop of resistance toys to be created, and that will be part of the fun. Yes, I say fun. Observing my life change is fun. Doing the work is fun. Talking about it with others who are interested is fun.

Realigning the stories I tell myself over and over will release amazing amounts of energy and time and health and abundance and great people and experiences coming my way.

And the most engaging reason to do this, or to do anything, is that it will feel great while it's happening.

It crossed my mind to start a count-down of some sort, or track 100 days of transformation, or some similar number related accountability thing. But that doesn't feel right. So I'm not going to. What I will do is be as honest and raw and genuine as I can while reporting on my progress here and elsewhere, in order to benefit others on their paths of getting to good places as well.

What I will do is examine and expose the thoughts and beliefs that hold me back. If they resonate with you and you are able to take something away from my experiment here, so much the better.

In as much as it's all about me, it's all about all of us.

And I can't wait to see what happens.
