A funny thing happened to me on the way to blogging…hahaha. Well, not really. I just seem to be having a tough time with this week’s blog. At the beginning of the week, when I first read Haanel, I thought it would be a piece of cake. Chapter 20 is so mind boggling how it pulls together everything we have been doing so far. Yet, how do I write about it? I guess I am part of the Universal Mind so I have creativity in me. So here goes…
Section 8 in this chapter speaks of the essence of the Universal being within me–is me. As I begin to perceive it, I will begin to feel my power. Just think of it, there really is power within me! My imagination is starting to rev up, inspiration is being fueled and I am connecting the invisible forces of nature! “It is the power which will enable you to plan fearlessly, to execute masterfully”. This is simply the law of relaxation. When I read this I really had an inspiration. I had been feeling so “off’ but not in a way that felt like my old blueprint. After I read this, it occurred to me that it was my new blueprint thirsting for new knowledge and a way to express itself! I had so much going on, I needed to get it out. I kept reading…

I read that to be inspired I had to get out of the beaten path and the rut. This, again, is everything we have been learning. It is our old blueprint. We need to get out if the old and bring in the new. Make new habits. And darn it all, new habits I have formed and I have become their slave! Just like Og says in the first scroll! It’s no wonder my mind is seeking bigger and better. I am amazed at how these pieces are fitting together.
And Will Power comes in as a danger……huh? I keep reading and put it together. Haanel explains that this is us coercing the laws of nature. I might be able to get what I want, but through this manipulation of the mind, it will not be sustained. It is not in harmony with the Universal. It is our finite being conflicting with the infinite of the universal. I am better off cooperating consciously with the Great Whole in order to harness this power I possess. With the Law of Subconscious, this reservoir of infinite resources will be accessed by subby from what my conscious plants, not with Will Power but with harmony.

Nicole, good for you for realizing your power is within you. From your blog rover friend John.

Thank you John!
You’ve had many tremendous insights this week. Fantastic dedication to the process. Will power is a bit of a paradox as it is quite detrimental when we try to force things rather than being in alignment with natural law. On the other hand, it is quite helpful to use our will to stay focused and to take the next step on our journey even when we are afraid and dealing with a bit of resistance. Bit it’s all good as we know deep inside when we are lying to ourselves not only about willpower but anything else. Have a great Week 21. Joseph
You are very welcome.
I loved how you explained the lesson this from this week. So much fun when we see it operating in our life. Your friend, Linda

Thanks Nicole. Appreciate your comments.
Great insight Nicole. Getting off the beaten path to find inspiration. And the importance of staying in harmony, will power can’t bend the natural laws!
Great insight Nicole

Cooperating in harmony does sound a whole lot better than trying to force things! 🙂
