The Power (33 page)

On the other hand, if you
negatively
affect another person so much that the person goes on to negatively affect someone else, then the negativity will return to you in full. You will receive it back in the form of negative circumstances affecting money, your career, your health, or your relationships. Whatever you give to another, you give to yourself.

“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”

Marcus Aurelius
(121-180)
ROMAN EMPEROR

When you are feeling enthusiastic, happy, and cheerful, those good feelings affect everyone you come into contact with. Even if you connect with a person just briefly in a store, on a bus, or in an elevator, when your good feelings make a difference to any person you connect with, the affect of that one instance on
your
life is almost incomprehensible.

“Remember there’s no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end.”

Scott Adams
(b. 1957)
CARTOONIST

Love is the solution and the answer to every relationship. You can never improve a relationship with negativity. Use the Creation Process for your relationships, and give love to receive. Use the Keys to Power for your relationships. Notice the things you love, make lists of the things you love, talk about the things you love, and turn away from the things you don’t love. Imagine having the perfect relationship, imagine it at the highest level you can, and feel having it with all your heart. If you find it difficult to feel good about a relationship, then love everything else around you, and just stop noticing the negative things in the relationship!

Love can do anything for you! All you have to do is give love by feeling good, and any negativity in your relationships will fade away. Whenever you are faced with a negative situation in a relationship, the solution is always love! You won’t know
how
it will be solved, and you can never know how, but if you maintain feeling good and give love, it will happen.

The message from Lao Tzu, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, and every great being is loud and clear – love!

POINTS OF POWER

• With every single person you come into contact, you are either giving love or you’re not. And based on what you give, that is what you receive.
  
• Give love to others through kindness, encouragement, support, gratitude, or any good feeling, and it comes back to you multiplied in every area of your life.
  
• Look for the things you love in a relationship more than you notice negative things and it will appear as if something incredible has happened to the other person.
  
• Trying to change another person, thinking you know what is best for another person, thinking you are right and another person is wrong is not giving love!
  
• Criticizing, blaming, complaining, nagging, or finding fault with another person is not giving love!
  
• You have to be happy to receive the happy versions of other people!
  
• The force of love presents you with a whole array of Personal Emotional Trainers, disguised as everyday people, but they are all training you to choose love!
  
• You can stick everything you love and want to you by looking for the things you love in other people, and saying yes to those qualities with all of your heart!
  
• You can’t talk about or hear negativity and have good feelings!
  
• Life is presenting every person and circumstance to you so you can choose what you love and what you don’t love. When you react to anything, you are reacting with your feelings, and as you do, you are choosing it!
  
• You can’t change a negative situation with bad feelings. If you keep reacting negatively, your bad feelings will magnify and multiply the negativity.
  
• If you’re feeling fantastic, the force of your magnetic field creates a shield that no negativity can penetrate.
  
• Changing the way you feel is easy compared to running around trying to change the circumstances of the outside world. Change your feelings and the outside circumstances will change!
  
• The more you give love and feel good, the more magnetic your field becomes and the more it expands, drawing everything and everyone you love to you!

FATHER OF WESTERN MEDICINE

What does it mean to be healthy? You may think that being healthy means that you are not sick, but being healthy is far more than that. If you feel okay, or average, or nothing much at all, you are not healthy.

Being healthy is feeling the same way as little children feel. Little children are bursting with energy every day. Their bodies feel light and flexible; moving is effortless. They’re light on their feet. Their minds are clear; they’re happy, and free of worry and stress. They sleep deeply and peacefully every night, and they wake up feeling completely refreshed, as if with a brand-new body. They feel passionate and excited about every new day. Look at little children and you will see what being healthy really means. It is the way you used to feel, and it is the way you should
still
feel!
