On Modern New Thought...It's a Philosophy of Life...Not a Religion...

Modern New Thought (Positive Thinking and the Law of Attraction)...

Simply stated modern New Thought is the belief that our thoughts and behaviors create our experiences for good or ill.  There is a God; Universal Mind, Infinite Intelligence or Omnipresent; seen as a source of creation, not as a being.  Practitioners of Modern New Thought know all are one with each other and the mind of God.  They know to change one’s experience in the world; one must change one’s mind.  The principles of Modern New Thought are based on knowledge from various religions, philosophies, and studies of human behaviors.

 

The practice of New Thought dates back to the 19th century.   Phineas Quimby is credited with its beginnings.  Quimby, a healer and hypnotist believed all illness and healing occurred according to one’s state of mind.  Other pioneers of New Thought include; Emma Curtis Hopkins, Nona L. Brooks and Melinda Cramer.  

Positive or Negative Life Experiences...It's All About Choice...

Everyday, upon waking, we have a choice of opening our eyes to a beautiful productive day or a dismal destructive one.  We determine our daily choice by the attitudes we bring to our day.  Which is your choice in welcoming the new day?  Do you drag yourself out of bed dreading your day or greet it cheerfully excited by the possibilities it holds?

There is a Universal Law which affects all of us.  It is the law of attraction.  This law of attraction guarantees that whichever words, thoughts and behaviors you send out into the world will be returned to you in kind, threefold.  Meaning any negative, hateful, or horrid energy that you spit into the wind is going to whip around and smack you full in the face…as well as any gentle kisses you send into the breeze.  Which would you choose to have boomerang back into your life; positive or negative energy? 
 

Everyone naturally answers positive energy.  The problem is that we move through our days, our lives; thoughtlessly.  We are sleepwalking and unaware of the tons of trash that we send out every second.  But, boy do we ever notice when it hits us between the eyes on its return path!  And, of course, we are shocked!  We do not understand how these awful things could be happening to us.  We are good people…all love and kindness!    
 

Yes, we are all love and kindness, innately, but we are blind to our carelessness.  The curse sent out to the aggressive driver, the impatient sigh delivered to the lady counting her pennies in the checkout, the jealousy over a coworker’s new promotion, or any of the other countless things we speak, think, or do without thought or care.  These are the unintentional expressions of ego which damage us.  We need to be conscious of the fact that these little, fleeting negative things do not simply evaporate when they hit the “Universal Atmosphere,” no; they build an incredible momentum that can take no other course, but to arrive back in the life that hurled them out there to begin with. 
 

Make the choice to embrace the positives in life.  Be awake and aware!  Pay attention to your words, thoughts and actions.  Practice this awareness daily.  If you notice you are being negative, stop and find a positive to take its place.  If you seek love, kindness, peace, joy, blessings, and abundance…send them out into the Universe so they may be returned to you threefold.  This is a path to peace.
