So going back to Sunday, finishing up that day and the lessons, I had then continued packing up my room and moved a bunch more things into the storage unit. While I was packing up, I had to retrieve my red harmonium box from the garage. After a quick glance in the garage, I noticed it was perched maybe 15 feet above the ground stacked on some other boxes. Definitely needed to have some balance, hand-eye coordination, and dexterity to get it. As I was climbing on top of all the other boxes, ledges, etc. it would have been very easy for me to fall backward. My feet were on the rims of 2 different boxes without the lids so I had to find the perfect balance. While I was reaching up to get the box, I just thought to myself and radiated energy of "I am balanced. I have balance." And sure enough, I didn't falter one bit as I handled the box and handed it down to Sydney. Whenever I'm in another situation that requires balance, I just need to repeat to myself that I'm balanced with pure intention, and I'll be fine.
After the storage unit, headed over to Barnes & Noble where I completed my weekly review and newsletter. I had browsed some books earlier, so I ended up buying 2 more. One called The Craft which is about how Freemasons built the modern world. The other Measure of Man which is about the Florentine Renaissance. Who knows when I'll actually get to reading them but excited to have them in my Book Vault digitally and on my book shelf at my new place once I move in this weekend.
Then as the evening began, I drove to Freedom Park, where I video chatted with Vishnu, one of the people that I met at the Year Zero Collective a few weeks ago. Very interesting and optimized person who's also geared for self-growth and efficiency. I admire that he takes a physical, mental, and spiritual approach to his improvement journey instead of just one or the other. He takes extremely copious notes through a rigorous multi-step process, so I admire that about him. He's also only at the entrance of his content creation journey, so we shared our thoughts, ideas, inspirations, and visions for where and how we wanted that side of ourselves to grow. It was a 2 hr + chat with him but felt like I had more energy after it than before! Those are the types of people that I want to surround myself with as I continue to grow myself. Looking forward to learning more from and with him going forward.
So Monday morning, I had initially started it off well, but then I took a nap, got in my own head too much and actually was the start of a subpar first half of the day. I went to BK on the way to work and even got coffee, which I never do. After a bit, I realized why I never do lol. My physical body does not want caffeine inside me, especially with a heavy breakfast. I could feel the lethargy during the first half of the day. So unideal. But mid afternoon onwards, I think I was mostly back to normal. Lesson learned of no coffee in the US, especially in the morning. (India's a bit different with chai.)
Later on Monday, when I was doing my viz med, I had a very quick, fleeting thought that Cole, as he was physically entering the house at that point boisterously, was running and fell down the stairs. I'm like, why would I ever imagine that? It lasted only for < 1 second but it had still come across my consciousness. I was in a good mood so I'm not sure what the exact cause of it was. But anyways, a bit later as I was eating dinner, Cole had come into my room. As always he was energetic and now was jumping onto the bed and rolling over on it. The 1st 2 times he had gotten a good jump but the 3rd one he wanted to go even bigger. So he jumped high and far, landed on the bed, rolled around a couple of times on the bed. But at the end of rolling, he had hit his head on the front corner of my desk, which was nearby the bed. I took him downstairs and put an 'ice back' of frozen vegetables on it for a minute before he was back to his normal self. But as the situation relaxed, I realized what had just happened. I placed an imprint during a subconscious time frame of Cole getting hurt and in no more than an hour, it materialized. I created that. Definitely don't feel good about that event. Shame that it even crossed my mind. AND it was an indication of how quickly I can manifest things from immaterial to material. Crazy!
This isn't the only incident either. In addition to my actual affirmations being actualized, there's been a couple others recently that have materialized. Last week, for whatever reason, I had another violent thought. That Trae Young would get injured with a leg injury and he would be grabbing his leg in pain on the floor. Again, only lasted for a quick second. But it was enough as a few hours later that night, I read an ESPN notification that Trae Young had left the game with an ankle injury and wouldn't return. I just saw that in shock. I had envisioned that happening just earlier that evening.
The course instructor had mentioned last year to never do the viz med in a bad mood and now I know why. It can go from subconscious creation to physical reality as quick as I can blink. And the thing is I wasn't even in a bad mood. These instances were just passing thoughts for 1 second.
I have had positive things come from the viz med though lol. I had imagined my family all hugging during one of my affirmations for the last few months and a couple weeks ago, it actually happened after an intense family discussion. I've also pictured a van that we're all in and taking in the beauty of the mountains. Not sure exactly where or when that will be but if it keeps popping up, I know it'll happen one day. The day it does, I'll look back to this day I journaled it and say "I created this!"
The other uplifting visualization coming to life was our company celebrating major achievements. I had pictured us all hugging and laughing. And last week it had become a reality when we celebrated as a company on the first 3 franchise groups being awarded licenses. So heartwarming realities have happened as a creation of my consciousness.
What I've noticed across many areas of life is that 'bad' things happen much quicker than 'good things. Things that elicit emotions of happiness and joy and things that elicit emotions of anger or sadness or fear. That may be obvious but I think there's a much deeper principle at play here. A fundamental truth. They say in finance that the markets take the escalator up and the elevator down. The work, profits, results of years of hard work, investing, portfolio management can be undone in just a day. Obviously many instances of that historically. In my life, habits take weeks, months to build up and in a day with a bad mood I can feel like not doing them any more. Like eating healthy for a week and then Saturday night rolls around and I get too many items from Taco Bell lol. All the calories burned working out and eating healthy undone with a greasy, heavy unhealthy meal in just 15 min. And then even in these viz med instances. The events that happened as a result of my violent thoughts occurred much quicker than the events centered around loving, compassionate, celebratory thoughts. There's also a connection between how hard I try to make something happen and them actually happening. I set these intentions out into the Universal Consciousness and they'll happen on its own divine timing. The more I "will" it to happen, the less likely it's going to happen. So the key here then is to create and radiate these pure intentions driven by love and let everything unfold naturally. The more I think about "should I work out? should I not work out?", the more I'm going against the natural flow and order of things. The more often I can have quick, fleeting positive thoughts overall and in my viz med practice particularly, the more likely they'll actually happen with greater ease.
[EPIPHANY] OH SHIT!
Focus is not having your attention on only one thing.
Focus is the absence of thought.
