Shhhh....Don't Tell Her!

Yesterday afternoon, I watched Okra Humprey as Martha Beck, Louise Hay and Cheryl Richardson talked about The Secret and the power of positive thinking.

It really made me think about the power of my thoughts and words. How do the things that I think affect my life? Could changing the tracks in my brain actually change my life?

I was thinking about all of that this morning after I hit the snooze button.

We're looking at buying a new house together. Major step. The house that we want is a tad out of our price range. Could changing my thinking make it possible?

They said to start thinking and writing down the things that you want. Test their theory. See if what you want will actually come to pass.

So, right there in bed I started. I started thinking about living in that new house. About having a healthy body. Being an athlete. An artist. Having sex.

The alarm went off again and again I hit the snooze button.

My girl turns over and starts the sweet stuff. A little morning delight ensues.

Oh. My. God! It works!

The basis of personal economic success is priorities. You may have to give up one thing, to obtain another. A guy once told me anyone can be a millionare, even after going bankrupt- but there will be sacrifices...Some days it's best be appreciate what you've got!

last year, maybe the year before, (i have terrible memory)my friend invited me to her church with her to see What the Bleep do We Know? - its a relatively cheeeeezy movie that still has tons of really cool info about quantum physics and thought processes like how a thought implants itself in a neural pathway in your brain, when you train yourself to think positively, your brain will find positive thoughts faster and thus react positively faster. all this to say in theory thought = action you are putting the thought into your brain, then focusing it into real energy so that it is released into the universe to come to fruition...kinda interesting stuff, to a dork like me anyways ;)

before B-rad and i moved back home, i manifested our house. B-rad is ever the skeptic, but to him i say: "So, i think positive... if nothing else, i have a more positive outlook on life."

Now i am turning my thoughts to getting lots of hot sex. yeah.

Jay said...

I'm totally gonna give this positive thinking thing a try if it worked that well for you! ;-)

Mackey said...

Well thanks for testing that out for us;)
Such a giving gal you are;)

Em said...

Haha. . .so cute how you call it "the sweet stuff". It worked for me this morning too, I mean, I had this thought that I'd really like a cup of coffee, and then I made myself one. It was amazing.

Tequila Mockingbird said...

Doc said...

I learned that Secret a long time ago.... LOL!

Babes...I do believe. I do believe. It so works.

I can't hit the snooze buttin. My 8 month old baby wakes me at 5:30 in the A.M. every morning...without fail.

I woke wishing my girl would go change him and get his bottle for him this time...

Oh yes, it works. I slept in an extra 30 minutes. God, I love her. I am wishing she wears that VS outfit I bought her last week. I so know I'm getting shagged tonight, because I'm wearing mine too. I believe babes.

Ciao.

I've always tried to be a positive thinker and have never quite figured out how negative thoughts could ever help!

Good luck with the new home purchase!!

Biscuit said...

I could stand to change my attitude. I've been focusing way too much on disappointments lately.

The power of positive thinking cannot be underestimated.

Seraphine said...

Obviously, positive thinking has it's benefits beyond putting a smile on your face.

Almost everyone goes through the "tad out of our price range" thoughts when buying a new house. If you can afford the payments (even if you have to cut your budget somewhere else) DO IT!

Think of the great sex you can have in YOUR own house!

Schmoop said...

I use visualization and positive thinking all the time. It works to some degree, at least for me it has.

Good Luck on the house. Cheers!!

katy said...

bloody hell it works real quick, off now got things to do ;)
ps hope it works as quick in getting you that house

The Mistress of the Dark said...

I've been thinking for a full year that a certain DJ should fall madly in love with me. So far it isn't working :(

MrRyanO said...

Morning sex is sweet!

Martin Lawrence once said that at night the pussy marinades...thought I would share that info.

Cheers to morning marinades!

Positive thinking works sometimes...just like having PMA, which is a Positive Mental Attitude...depends on the wish I think tho.
My wee-one and her partner had a house built last year...PMA was instrumental with that.
It's a good thing! I didn't even think about putting that with a sex-wish-thought thing though. Great idea!! I love good stuff in the morning! What a way to start the day! :)
Yay for you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeff B said...

I can see myself doing a little market research here!

Maybe you should think about having sex in your new house. Might as well double up.

Diva said...

Before I learned I could control my fate by my attitude I was sad, depressed and not gettin any.

On a non sex related note.. I know what you're talking about with the positive thoughts about co-existence in ya'lls own place. Did it last year!!

Congrats, girlie!
Keep thinkin positive & keep up the serious nookie!

Cooper said...

Yep - it does! I watch The Secret and Read Peale's 'Power' book...basically the same thing..and put up a visualization board with the things I want to have happen in my life. I look at it every day. A couple have happened, some in process, some...not yet.

But they will. (<--- KEY - have faith that it will)

Anndi said...

Positive thoughts about the house... and christening every room ;)

elizabeth said...

I dunno. I think positive thinking does work. I sat there and thought "I'm sick of masochistic (sp?)cruel men - I want a real live prince charming." SHABAM. He actually showed up. LOL. NOW I think about great sex - and again.... SHABAM - great sex WITH prince charming. Who knew? I am all for the positive thinking let me tell you! lol.
