Living Inside a Miracle - by Phil Gosling

'It ain't what a man don't know that hurts him; it's what he knows that just ain't so.'--Frank 'Kin' Hubbard

We take things for granted. It's only when something dramatic happens that we even realize we have taken something for granted. The reason we take things for granted is because they have become part of our routine, and the object of a routine is that we don't have to think about it.

Our lives are filled with routines. Indeed your whole life can be just one huge routine in which every day starts at the usual time, you go to work in the' usual way, have the usual time off, do the usual things in the evening and weekends, and go on the usual vacations. You drive the usual type of car, live in the usual kind of house and earn the usual income that has been pre-ordained by your usual position in life.

Routines are essential, medically sound - and often unfortunate.

Routines are essential because without them we'd have to spend most of the day thinking about the next thing we have to do and tie knots in a thousand handkerchiefs to remind us of what to do next. Without routines we'd all go crazy.

Routines are a way of maintaining the status quo. Not the rock group but the state in which everything attempts to stay the same. Indeed medicine has a name for it: homeostasis. Homeostasis is what every cell in your body is trying to achieve. It is the state of equilibrium, that point where everything stays the same; where nothing changes. This is part of your natural programming. Your cells are programmed into thinking, "I am alive, therefore if things don't change, I will stay that way." Cool thinking really, for a cell.

And because you and I are the sum total of a zillion cells working in harmony then we too, as people, also suffer from corporal homeostasis. With few exceptions most of the human race avoid change, like things to stay as they are; if it ain't broke don't fix it; and when change comes along we don't like it at all: unless it's good change of course. That's OK.

But routines can still be unfortunate. By definition we don't notice them or think about them. So when your lady or man clears off with someone else it's possibly because you took her or him for granted and never noticed. Routines keep you where you 'are, in the same place. But most of all, the big problem with routines is that they stop us noticing something very important. We are blinded by them. They stop us noticing the world we are living in. We take the seasons, the sun rising, green grass, trees, the air we breathe, even life, for granted.

Above all it stops us seeing that we are living inside a miracle; that we are miracles within a miracle. We shouldn't even be here; life is against the laws of physics. And those very few people who see this, and study it, discover a strange truth. Not only are we miracles inside a miracle, but we can change things. We have the power. Not only are we in The Matrix, but like Keanu Reeves' Neo, we can control it. You ARE Neo.

Phil Gosling has just launched his latest and very unusual book, 'Success Engineering.' He reveals information that is at the very cutting edge of science; a place so close to magic that it is difficult to tell the difference. Everything you have ever wanted - the car, the home, the income, the life - is so close you can reach out and grasp it. You just have to know how to grasp it, how to really succeed. This book shows you how to engineer your own success.

Some things remain the same: the fact that you are exactly where you are today because of the decisions you made yesterday; the fact that you accidentally pressed the wrong switches. Success Engineering is all about showing you the right switches to press.

Your Sacred Commission How to receive direction from God by Katie Brazelton

Purpose Driven Life: "The future is often a big gray area of unknowns, holding a host of things we cannot foresee. Thankfully, we have a God who knows the future, who has carefully planned all things. It's our job to trust that God has everything under control and to seek His direction. Each of us needs to ask, 'God, what's the next step in your purpose for my life?' and eagerly anticipate his answer, because his vision for what's next in our life is better than any of the visions we have for ourselves.

When you seek direction, God may not speak to you in an audible voice, but He will communicate His message. That's the incredible news the prophet Amos proclaims when he says that God 'reveals His thoughts' (Amos 4:13). That's what Daniel was explaining to King Nebuchadnezzar when he said that there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets (Daniel 2:28). Our God, the God of Amos and Daniel, wants you to trust Him to reveal His thoughts about your purpose. He not only has a vision for you, but when the timing is perfect, He will reveal it. Just as he was clear with prophets like Samuel and Isaiah when he chose them to carry his messages, he will be clear with you."

The Language Of Confidence By: Jason E Johns

The language we use programs our brains. Mastering our language gives us a great degree of mastery over our lives and our destinies. It is important to use language in the best way possible in order to dramatically improve your quality of life.

Even the smallest of words can have the deepest effect on our sub-conscious mind. It is like a child, it doesn’t really understand the difference between what really happens and what you imagine. It is eager to please and willing to carry out any commands that you give it – whether you do this knowingly or not is entirely up to you.

“Try”

It is a small word yet it has an amazing impact upon us. If someone says, “I’ll try to do that” you know that they are not going to be putting their whole heart in to it, and may not even do it at all. How often do you use the word try when talking about the things that matter to you? Do you say “I’ll try to be more confident” or “I’ll try to do that” or “I’ll try to call”?

Think about something that you would like to achieve, and say it to yourself in two different ways. Firstly say, “I’ll try to …” and notice how you feel. Next say “I will do …” and see how you feel.

The latter made you feel better than the first one didn’t it? It gives you a sense of determination; a feeling that it will be done. Listen to the people around you and when they say they will try notice if it gets done or not. Eliminate the word try from your dictionary and see how your life improves."
