Thought Vibration

According to Mr. Atkinson, all thought is sent out in a wave pattern, similar to the wave patterns of sound and light. This causes vibration in the thoughts of others and helps to attract like minds. It is also the same vibrations that help to impress the thinking stuff described in The Science Of Getting Rich. Using this viewpoint, people who think in a positive manner will attract other people who think in a similar manner, and people who think negatively will attract like-minded, negative people.

When it comes to the realm of positive thinking and attraction marketing, you need to get your mental attitude in the right frame, otherwise you are setting yourself up for failure. If you have ever listened to a seminar from any of the top internet marketers today, they almost always start off by saying that in order to become a millionaire, you need to surround yourself with millionaires. What the are really saying is that you need to think of yourself as being successful, believe in that thought, and surround yourself with others who have the same thoughts and are successful. If you hang around with people who are generally negative, especially when it comes to being successful, then you will pick up on the thought patterns of those people and hinder your efforts at becoming successful yourself.

The human mind is considered one of the gateways to the Universal Will – Supreme Will, Thinking Stuff, Quanta, Dark Matter, God, etc, choose your own title based on your beliefs if it will help you to get in the proper frame of mind. The Universal Will is directly related to a person’s will power, and is the primary focus of these theories to cause all of the negative thoughts and emotions to subside and allow one to think, act, and believe that he is capable of, and worthy of, doing or being anything that he wishes. Most people, at least those that are not as successful as they want to be, will claim a lack of will power on the reason that they cannot achieve the success that they desire. It is not a lack of will power that is keeping anyone from becoming successful, but a lack of proper mental attitude that prevents one’s will from becoming the dominant force in his thought patterns.

In order to begin the process of training your mind to remain in a positive mental state, you can use Mr. Atkinson’s mental picture as a very good example. Think of yourself as the King over your own realm. See yourself sitting on your throne and ruling over all of the other parts that make up you – especially those negative thoughts that intrude upon your positive mental attitude. You are in charge, so order those thoughts to subside and remain fixed on the positive things that you want to see for yourself, and with some practice and a little time, you will begin to think of yourself as in charge of what thoughts that you allow yourself to have. Once you can do this, putting yourself in a positive mental state becomes far easier and quicker, and allows you to overcome any negative thoughts that you may have.

Mr. Atkinson gives an exercise in his book that is designed to help you get into this positive mental attitude. Make the affirmation to yourself “I AM Asserting the Mastery of My Real Self”. Repeat these words to yourself at least once an hour, and several times before going to bed. Don’t just say or think the words, but do so positively and with earnest, and with the thought that you keep of yourself that inspires you to believe the words are true.

Using this exercise, you will in time begin to have new, more positive thoughts without having to make an effort to have them, and you will begin to see that things that seemed difficult before now come to you much easier. You will begin to see yourself as the image that you have of yourself, and begin to believe that you are in charge of yourself. This is the first step in the retraining of you mind to become the positive, successful person that you want to be.

Part 2 of Thought Vibration will be posted soon.

Preparing To Receive What You Want

In order to receive the things that you want, the things that you have made your mental image of and impressed onto the thinking stuff, you need to be prepared for when it comes to you. This is not as difficult as it may sound, and mainly requires thinking and acting in a positive manner. According to Mr. Wattle, the following things need to be firmly believed and followed in order to receive what you want.

Each person that desires wealth must live and work in a manner that causes him to more than fill his present place.

In order to do this, the person must not only strive to be the best at what he does, but to be the best that he can be at what he does in his current business. If you are not happy in your current business and are thinking of making your riches in another business, you still need to be the best at what you do so that the business that you would like to be in will come to you more quickly.

When you more than fill you present place, then you will not have a choice except to move higher up. This is how nature works and evolution occurs. When an organism more than fills its present place, then it has no choice except to adapt to a higher plane of existence, and the same applies to people in business. Just being the best at what you do will only work to keep you in the same position that you are in, as your employer will have no reason to move you higher up if you make him more money doing what you do.

Keep in mind the purpose to get rich through realization of the mental image that you have formed in you mind.

Once you have formed the mental image of the life that you desire, and the wealth that goes with that life, then use your idle time to think strongly about that image, refine it, and perfect all of the pieces of the image. During your normal day, while working and interacting with others, keep this mental image in mind always. There is no need to daydream and dwell upon it all the time, since that will be done in your spare time. Just keep the image in your mind along with the belief that you desire and deserve this image.

Hold the thought of the mental image so that the impression will be communicated to everyone and everything you come into contact with.

Since everyone and everything in the universe is made up of the same thinking stuff, the more that you are able to impress the image of your desire on everything you come into contact with, the more the impression will be acted upon by the thinking stuff. Just remember that you do not need to think strongly about your image all of the time, just keep it in your mind once it has been fully formed.

Give to every person a use value in excess of the cash value received.

Depending on the type of business that you wish to enter, in order to receive the highest cash value for what you are giving, you must give a use value higher than the cash value received. This is especially true for the service type business, such as network marketing and online business that does not sell a specific product. A good example would be selling an ebook that tells others how to do something. The use value of the ebook should be higher than the cash value being asked for it – if the ebook is valued at $49.95, then the person buying the ebook should be able to expect more than $49.95 in return value for his investment..

The next part of this will start in on the theory behind Thought Vibration, and how it is related to Positive Thinking.

How Positive Thinking Works Part 2.

Creative thought vs. Competitive thought.

Creative thought is defined as taking a certain thought (such as getting rich or finding that one special love), thinking about it in a determined fashion, and then holding that thought strongly enough to impress that thought onto the thinking stuff. This will cause the thinking stuff to create the circumstances for you to achieve whatever it is that you desire.

Competitive thought is defined as trying to force your thoughts and desires to work by competing against others for what you desire.

According to the theory outlined in The Science Of Getting Rich, using creative thought allows a person to come into direct mental contact with the thinking stuff, thereby causing the thinking stuff to move into action and create the circumstances necessary to cause that persons thoughts to become reality. Competitive thought stems from greed and envy, and causes the persons thoughts to be impressed onto the thinking stuff in a negative manner, producing negative results for that person.

According to Mr. Wattle, in order to receive the most benefit from impressing your thoughts on the thinking stuff, you need to have a firm image of the thing that you desire in your thoughts and continue to think about this thing in a creative manner. The more firmly you believe that this image is yours and is on its way to you, the more committed that thinking stuff will be in making the image yours.

Thinking in a negative manner, such as giving a lot of thought to poverty and lamenting on personal problems, will cause the thinking stuff to attract these negative thought to you – basically a person that thinks about poverty on a regular basis will remain in poverty, or someone who dwells on illness and disease will attract more illness and disease into his life. Competitive thought increases the negative emotions and thoughts that are impressed upon the thinking stuff.

This adds a fourth element to the basic concepts of The Science Of Getting Rich:

1 - There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and in its original state exists in all areas of the universe.

2 - A thought in this thinking stuff will produce the thing imagined in that thought.

3 - A person can form things in his thoughts, impress that thought upon the thinking stuff, and cause the thing he thinks about to be created.

4 – A person must pass from competitive thought to creative thought. This is the only way to be in harmony with the thinking stuff, which is always creative in spirit and never competitive.

Part 3 will concentrate on making yourself ready to receive what you want.

How Positive Thinking Works Part 1.

While I am waiting to see what the results of the positive thinking experiment are, ltes see if I can explain a little about how this works.

According to Wallace D. Wattle, there is a substance that he refers to as the "thinking stuff" that makes up everything that is in the universe. Quantum physics theories now refer to the "thinking stuff" as dark matter.

Positive thinking uses what is referred to as creative thinking. Mr. Wattle's theory can be broken down into 3 main parts:

1 - There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and in its original state exists in all areas of the universe.

2 - A thought in this thinking stuff will produce the thing imagined in that thought.

3 - A person can form things in his thoughts, impress that thought upon the thinking stuff, and cause the thing he thinks about to be created.

Using this theory, a person should be able to impress the thought of becoming wealthy onto the thinking stuff, thereby creating wealth for him.

Attraction marketing uses the same theory in the basic Think Rich, Be Rich idea. If a person has a strong enough, and clear enough desire to become rich, then he will become rich because the thinking stuff will create the circumstances needed for him to become rich.

Part 2 of this article will concentrate on the proper method of using thought to make positive things happen for you.

Attraction Marketing and The Power of Positive Thinking

I seem to be stuck on this topic, so I might as well write something else about it. I have been trying to use the methods for positive thinking laid out in the book The Science of Getting Rich. Since I have only been doing this for a couple days now, I can’t really say what the overall results might be. For now, I can only comment on the immediate results.

I am thinking more positive thoughts than I was before, and trying very hard to suppress the negative thoughts that seem to just naturally come into the mind throughout the day. I have been in a much better mood than normal this week, and have been motivated to do more work at my regular job than usual.

I know that it will take at least a couple weeks of doing this before I can give any definite results, but judging from the increase in positive mental attitude over just the last two days, I am hoping for some really great results. I will continue with this on a regular basis to let everyone know how this works out.

This can be confusing.

With all of the ways to advertise your online projects, things can get pretty confusing at times. It seems like I spend a lot more time sitting in front of this computer than I do working at my regular job. Traffic exchanges, mass emails, article writing, blogs, and the whole social networking thing seem to take up more time than ever.

Out of all of the methods that I have tried for advertising, the best and most responsive so far has been on the social networking sites. Twitter seems to be the best one for reaching the most people at once, but with a couple of third party programs, I am able to send out messages to around 25 different sites with just one mouse click, so there are some ways to save a little time.

I am just getting this blog page started, so I will keep this one short. Leave me a comment with your suggestions or advice on what kinds of things should be covered in this area. I am always trying to learn new ways of doing things, and any help would be appreciated.

Ok. Part 2 of this thing.

I have been sending out a lot of safelist emails lately, and the response that I get is pretty low. I would guess that most people do not read the emails that they get from these safelists, since there are just too many that show up in your inbox. It looks like the way to go with these safelists would be to use the solo ads that they offer. I open up most of them just to get the higher credit numbers, so I do see at least the splash page being used for each ad.

From what I have been able to tell about the safelist credit mailers, they are free, so they can be used without much effort and without dipping into your budget. Just don't expect to get too many results from them. Solo ads are OK, but not nearly effective as the responses from traffic exchanges. I guess I will still use them all until I am able to build up a large enough subscriber list.

I would like to focus a little bit on the concept of attraction marketing. Two books that I have read, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattle and Thought Vibration by William Walker Atkinson, focus on using positive thoughts to overcome the mental barriers that most people have to making money and becoming wealthy. Both of these books were written in the early 1900's and still hold merit today.

I do not know how well the actual money attraction part works, since I have not seen any vast improvements to my income just by thinking positively about it, but I will say that having the proper mindset and focus about what you are doing makes it much easier to write things like this blog, articles, and advertisement emails.

If you have not had the opportunity to read either of these books yet, you need to take the time to do so. The Science of Getting Rich is probably the best known of the two, and was the inspiration for the most recent positive thinking book, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne.

Right click on the links and choose "save link as..." to download the two books.

As always, your comments are welcome. Let me know what you think about the idea of attraction marketing, and whether you think it works or not.
