Can Financial Freedom Be Acheived By Simply Shifting Your Expectations?

Sometimes I use little post-its. Usually I highlight or underline. Occasionally I’ll use my nail to permanently mark the margin alongside a thought worth keeping. But tonight, I got out of bed, found a pencil, and for the first time ever, circled a sentence:

“Reality is negotiable.”

It doesn’t get any more concise than that. There is probably a part of you that whole heartedly agrees with this statement. And there is a part of you that begs to differ. This article is here to provide the evidence you need to satisfy that self-limiting side that is in opposition to you being fully empowered.

Beyond being able to negotiate a better deal on your vacation package or a piece of real estate, imagine being able to negotiate it all…

“Reality is a bit plastic, and we tend to put a structure on it, a form…
Our brains take information in, and sometimes give it a form…It’s not that the picture is out there; it’s that we’re getting data that we’re turning into a picture according to nour own belief systems” n Michael Talbot, The Holographic Universe

You may find this concept a little out there, but what if I were to tell you that the latest research in the fields of psychology, neuro-science and quantum physics all concur---expectations create reality.

In a variety of ways, spiritual teachers have been trying to get this point across for hundreds of years. We’ve now developed the tools to provide the research to even the most skeptical mind, if only that person would choose to look a little deeper. Do the research. Satisfy your mind.

If, as Talbot explains “If reality is holographic you’re helping create it by believing it,” and beliefs are just a collection of thoughts, many absorbed unconsciously or programmed in with someone else’s intention based upon their limited perspective, doubts and fears, than what could be more worth while than seeking the truth that would set you free from others view of reality and creating life on your terms? Wouldn’t you choose more joy? More abundance? Less stress? Radiant health? Balanced, fulfilling relationships of mutual benefit?

If in fact, expectations do determine reality then reality truly is negotiable on the most profound level imaginable! That means you do have the power to choose your options.
It’s just not something they teach you in school. Too bad, but it’s not too late.

The latest research has discovered that while the brain always finds change stressful, even if the change is for the better, there are ways to gently manipulate the neuropathways that carve out the mental maps that determine the point of view that leads to expectations and therefore everything you witness around you.

Quantum theory though summarized eloquently by teachers like Deepak Chopra or Michael Talbot, can be a bit daunting for the average student of life. If you are the type who needs the scientific research to really get it, then go for it. Meanwhile consider this:

As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.” Henry David Thoreau

And if that’s not enough, know this: “The entire course of a man’s life has many times been changed by a single thought.” Claude M. Bristol, The Magic of Beliefnnnn
