In 2007 I was diagnosed with
Meniere's Disease - an inner ear disorder that causes violent attacks of
tinnitus, which is so loud that I was virtually deaf in the affected ear. The
tinnitus then causes dizziness, which results in vomiting. Attacks are
unpredictable and can come at any time anywhere. The specialists told me that
there was no cure and that the illness could result in permanent deafness in
the affected ear. All they could do was prescribe me the strongest medication
possible that supposedly helped to reduce the frequency of the attacks. This
illness dominated my life for two years. During this period, I was backpacking
and my enjoyment would often be interrupted by violent attacks of this illness.
Attacks became so frequent that I had to return home. When I arrived home, I
was bedridden for a number of weeks with one attack after another.
When I first began learning about
the Law of Attraction, two years earlier, I was depressed and living
undesirable circumstances. I felt trapped by my contract in the British Armed
Forces, so much so that I developed a desire to commit suicide. If I had not
come across the Law of Attraction, I would probably not be here today. I began
imagining myself on the beach in Australia and I trained my mind into a state
of belief and positive expectation. Just three months later, I was on a beach
in Australia and I was a qualified fitness instructor!
So, two years later, when I reached
the point where I was bedridden for a number of weeks because of my illness, I decided
to change my mindset regarding my illness. I threw my medication in the bin and
I began visualizing myself back in Australia, in a bar with my friends sipping
champagne. I visualized myself as healthy and I imagined myself telling a
family member the story of how I used my mind to heal myself. I believed in my
vision and I imagined it with conviction and clarity. I trained my belief and
expectation and I began feeling optimistic, excited and eager, even whilst I
was bedridden with dizziness and vomiting. One month later, my attacks stopped.
Three and a half months later, I was back in Australia, in a bar with my
friends sipping champagne!
Many people do not believe in
giving false hope. However, more and more people are now beginning to
understand that there is no false hope. Hope opens the door to belief; belief
opens the door to knowing, and knowing opens the door to unlimited
possibilities. There are many things that were once perceived to be impossible
by the masses that are now possible, such as travelling by air and connecting
with one another via a network of computers. History shows us that just because
we cannot see how something can be possible right now, it doesn't mean that it
isn't possible.
Life is a journey of continuous
growth, development and expansion. There is one principle that we must learn if
we are to take control of our journey. The simplest description of this
principle is as follows: our life experiences are a reflection of our habitual
thoughts. Visualization is a powerful tool, but it is often misunderstood to
mean that you only have to spend 15 minutes imagining your goal once or twice
per day. What are the nature of your thoughts the rest of the time? Most of us
are not even aware of what our habitual thoughts are because we're not
consciously paying attention. Raising self-awareness is the first step.
Changing a negative habitual thought pattern is the second step, which only
takes about 30 days regardless of how long you have had that thought pattern.
