What If? Using the Power of Your Imagination for What you Desire Instead of for What You Don't

Have you noticed that your mind is continually trying to use your imagination to create scenarios to correlate with its fearful ideas? Your imagination is an equal-opportunity power tool, and your limited ego-mind frequently appropriates it to conjure up a match to its that which it is afraid of. The mental language that most frequently precedes these fearful creations is “What if?”

What if I take this financial step and lose everything? What if I open my heart and it gets stomped on? What if I take this new job and I hate it? What if I choose the wrong outfit and I’m miserable? What if I burn dinner? What if I’m late? What if the car breaks down? What if I miss her call? What if I look like a fool? What if, what if, what if!

Then your mind searches its database for images to correlate with these “what if” scenarios, and creates a scary visualization to match up with the fears. Which, of course, gets your fearful feelings going. And then, because feelings are the fuel for creation, you’re empowering the manifestation of the very thing you don’t want to happen!

Happily, you are not obligated in any way to stay with the mental movie of the worst-case scenarios that your misaligned ego-mind would like to play for you! Indeed, you’ll get far happier results if you don’t. You can pull the plug on ego’s projector and use your imagination to create something more desirable with your aligned mind.

The quickest, easiest way to neutralize the undesirable “what ifs” is simply to choose a new “what if.” Thus, if you’re getting ready to make a financial decision and your fearful ego goes into the “What if…” game, simply switch it from “What if I take this financial step and lose everything” to “What if I take this financial step and I gain a lot and my life is enhanced?” allowing your mind to create a joyful scenario to match, and empowering it with your feelings.

What if I open my heart and experience more Love? What if I take this new job and it’s stimulating and prospering—the perfect next step for me? What if what I am wearing doesn’t even matter and I enjoy myself no matter what? What if dinner turns out to be delicious? What if I arrive in perfect Divine Timing? What if, what if, what if.

When you give your mind something to visualize and empower in service to the Divine Design for Harmony, it simply won’t be available to empower the Divine Design for Disharmony!
