10 Insights Into The Power Of Thoughts
Harness the power of thoughts so that you can create the life that you want. Your every thought is a statement of your desires to the Universe. You are a product of all the thoughts, feelings and experiences you have had until now. In the same manner, whatever thoughts you have now are going to influence your tomorrow. This being the case, you need to be very aware about the thoughts that run in your head. By not taking charge of your mind, you may just attract circumstances that are contrary to what you truly desire.

On the plus side, if you can exercise great control in what or the way you think, you can begin to attract resources from the Universe, to make your dreams come true. For today, let’s examine 10 truths about the power of thoughts, so that you can set leverage on your mind effectively:
1. Thought is spiritual energy.
Thoughts are often depicted in a cloud of ideas coming out from your head. In reality, thoughts are measurable units of energy. They are waves of energy that penetrate through time and space. Your energy field changes constantly, based on the vibrations that you project.
Thought is also spiritual energy as well. Your soul is a part of the Universe or Spirit or God. Your soul or “I” is what lies within you. Universe / Spirit / God is creative and thought is creative. Your soul expresses itself through thought. It seeks to create in the essence of love. Sorrow, misery, fear and unhappiness are thoughts and emotions that limit and subtract. Hence, in its purest definition, thought can be said to be of spiritual energy.
2. You Create Through Thought.
You are always creating through your thoughts. In fact, you create the reality that you are in right now. You cannot stop the process of creation. The Law of Attraction is the law that explains this creation. Understanding this law allows you to create anything that you desire.
The Law of Attraction explains that like attracts like. Positive energy attracts positive energy. Negative energy attracts negative energy. The Universe responds to these energy vibrations. It does not decide for you what you need. In fact, it just responds to what you sent out.
In short, when you exude positive energy such as joy, you are more likely to attract favorable circumstances. On the other hand, when you exude negative energy such as worry, you tend to attract situations of lack, not enough money and so on.
“You are a creator; you create with your every thought. You often create by default, for you are getting what you are giving your attention to wanted or unwanted but you know by how it feels if what you are getting (creating) is what you are wanting or if it is not what you are wanting”. Abraham Hicks
3. Your Outer World Is A Mirror of Your Inner Thoughts.
If your thoughts are often rooted in fear, your outer world will be one of endless struggles, lack of opportunity and poverty. On the contrary, if your thoughts are rooted in love and abundance, your outer world is one of unlimited possibilities, richness and beauty.
Every thought is a cause and every condition an effect. Most people try to change their outer world with more effects. However, it is a mere exchange of one form of misery to another. Nothing positive has really happened! They do not realise that change is most powerful when it comes from within.
4. Vibration Is The Action of Thought.
Each thought resonates a certain vibrational frequency, through emotion. When your thoughts go “I like this”, “it tastes good” or “I am abundant”, the vibration is positive. When your thoughts are “I hate this”, “I am no good” or “it is difficult”, the vibration is negative.
A thought that “I am awesome” compared to “I am good” has a different emotional charge to it. The same can be said of a negative thought. A thought that says “I feel downright depressed” compared to “I am sad” vibrates at a more negative frequency. Obviously when you change the thought and in various degrees, you can effect a change in the energy vibration felt throughout your body. Hence, adjust the power of thoughts appropriately to bring you closer to what you want.
5. Thoughts Vibrate Either Love or Fear.
Every human thought is based in either love or fear. The two emotions, fear and love, form the language of the soul. The emotions carry the thought out into the Universe.
Unfortunately, most of us are not aware that we attract our struggles and hardships because of our base emotions behind the root thought. In Conversations with God Book One, this root thought is described as the Sponsoring Thought. It is the thought that drives human motivation. The Sponsoring Thought is either a thought of love or fear. It is the thought behind the thought behind the thought. “It is the raw energy that drives the engine of human experience.”
Hence, in evaluating the outcomes that you are experiencing right now, you need to uncover what your Sponsoring thought is. Its vibrational resonance is what determines the reality of your current experience.
“When you are having a hard time making yourself do something, or when the action you offer does not produce the results you are seeking, it is always because you are offering thoughts in opposition to your desire.”
— Abraham
6. Power lies in The Concentration of Pure Thoughts.
Since like energy attracts like energy, they “stick together”. This happens when you concentrate hard. Matter forms out of pure energy. Once matter forms, it remains as it is for a long time. It is removed only when there is an opposing set of destructive energy.
We harness the power of concentration, when we hold a thought in pure intention for at least 17 seconds. The key is that it must be clear and strong; that is, with no interfering or sabotaging thoughts or intent. So the longer that we can persist in our concentration and attention, the greater will be the vibrational force that can bring our thought into manifestation.
7. Power Lies in Thoughts From The Subconscious Mind.
Your conscious mind is limited. It is your subconscious mind, which is more powerful. It is where the Sponsoring Thought lies. If you rely on using your conscious mind alone, you are operating below your fullest potential.
Thoughts in your subconscious mind can sabotage what lies in your conscious. For instance, the hidden thought that you may not be good enough can derail the positive intentions you may have about your work. Your potential for greatness becomes severely compromised.
Methods that are helpful in accessing your subconscious mind include meditation, lucid dreaming, and hypnosis. You can also make use of the power of thoughts with positive daily affirmations, subliminal messaging and/or brainwave entrainment.
8. Thoughts influence your body.
Your body reacts to your thoughts. Lie detector tests are developed, based on this fact. If you asked to confess to a secret to which you have outwardly lied about, you start to sweat profusely, your blood pressure goes up and your heart starts to beat faster. These signs prove that every single cell of your body is affected by the increased rate of emotional response caused by the thoughts in your head.
“I admit thoughts influence the body.”
— Quote by Albert Einstein
Hence, it is not inconceivable to believe that ill health or diseases are first caused by toxic thoughts. Toxic thoughts weaken you and send out a negative energy vibration, causing you to attract the very experience that you wish to avoid but have unconsciously focused upon.
Conversely, positive thoughts make you feel relaxed and less tense. They invoke the release of endorphins, reducing pain and increasing pleasure. You envelope yourself in positive energy, that attracts better outcomes into your life. The power of thoughts can bring about physical wellness!
9. Beliefs Are Habitual Thoughts.
Many of us often stubbornly hold on to our beliefs. We identify so much with them; that we feel threatened if others challenge them. Even if there is that little niggling doubt, we choose to hang on to them. We fear being stripped naked should our beliefs get de-throned. Yes, many of us go to the extent of worshiping our beliefs.
But what if the belief is not true? What if the belief is a lie that someone else has told you? What if this belief is one that limits and prevents you from being the person that you can truly be? Beliefs that do not help include inner talk like “I am not good enough”, “I do not deserve to have money”, or “others are born with better luck than me”.
In reality, beliefs are habitual thoughts. Most of them have been formed since young. Since they began in a thought, you can always change this thought from a negative one. Most certainly, harness the power of thoughts positively!
10. Intuition arises in the Silence Between Thoughts.
Intuition often arises when you are silent; that is in present moment awareness. It arises in the gaps, the space in between your cluttered thoughts. It comes only when your mind is at ease. Intuition often offers the creative solution, that your conscious mind cannot address to your problems at hand. It is the product of your subconscious mind.
Devote an amount of time each day to sitting in Silence. Meditation is a training that your mind needs, to practice present moment awareness. The more you practice, the greater will be your ability to access your intuitive abilities.
Conclusion
You could have been oblivious to the power that you have. It is time to take control; for the ability to create a better world for yourself lies in your thoughts.
Understanding the power of thoughts can help you with an energy shift. Through awareness, you get into a positive state of being. You begin to attract abundance, the birthright of your Soul.
Love and Abundance Always,
