Knowing I’m capable.
Knowing I can actually do it.
Knowing I’m worthy to receive the rewards.
There is a shift afoot in myself, and I wish this same shift for you. I’m done with being in doubt. I’m done with thinking negatively. And for this reason I’m dubbing 2019 The year of Knowing.
I’m declaring this to instill it deep within and around me. I’m filling my mind with the white light of positivity to help push way those inevitable thoughts of doubt and questioning my resolve. For years I’ve been saying that I do believe in myself and that has been helpful. However, the shift from believing to knowing is critical.
I’ve come to understand that the knowing is the key. The key I’ve been searching for my whole life. It is in the knowing that bridges the gap between potentiality and certainty.
Take, for example, this simple process of making something happen. First, you have an idea and then set forth an intention. Next, you take action on the intention. Then most importantly, trust and allow it to happen.
You have the thought, “I would like a fire in the fireplace. Okay, I’m going to make one.” You collect the wood and the kindling and the matches. You can pretty much trust (tongue in cheek) if you strike a viable match (not wet or used), it will light. You then put this lit match to the kindling, and you know it will light. You allow the fire to build and you know the wood will burn creating a fire in the fireplace. You knew this process would work. You’ve seen someone build a fire before. You’ve smelt wood burning from a fireplace. And, you’ve poked at burnt wood, evidence of past fires. All the physical evidence of knowing it would happen.
Here’s the rub. What if you wanted to use this process to make something NEW happen? Something you’ve never seen or done before. Perhaps, it’s not new. Perhaps it’s something that happened or you did it, but you doubt it can happen again. The challenge is… the element of certainty is hard to come by when there’s no evidence.
What if you made a choice to know it would happen? Imagine the power and the force behind that idea and intention. Now, I can imagine what you’re saying. “You mean if you KNOW you can win the lottery, it will happen”? Let me be clear about what I’m saying. The mind is a powerful, powerful tool in creating your life. And if you choose to let the mind assist you in creating that life in a positive way and with intention, you will accomplish more to that end by harnessing this process. Science has proven the power of the mind over matter. The power of prayer, even. So, let’s take it to the level of intention and thoughts.
I’m ready to take this concept of “knowing” out for a spin and see where it takes me. I hope you give it a try. Let me know how you’re doing. I know it will be a good year!
