It is funny to remember when NLP (Neuro-Linguistic-Programming) became famous in the early 80’s that people were shocked to hear behaviour and personality defined as programs. It was shocking to compare a human being to a computer!
Today, science is going far beyond this notion. Quantum physics specifically affirms that we can’t be only observers in this world but contributors. This notion changes everything. The universe would not exist without consciousness and our own mind is building reality. Is that hard to believe?
We can’t look at something without influencing it and it seems that we are part of a gigantic Universal computer. Depending on our beliefs, we allow different kinds of events to happen in our lives, exactly like a program allowing you to open some documents. It actually makes perfect sense. Our beliefs are framing the territory of possibilities and if you don’t believe in the magic of life, it does not mean that it does not exist but that you can’t access it.
Our beliefs change our environment and health. The placebo and nocebo effects are well known and obviously important in the way we can either improve or damage our health. What is interesting is that all the double blind studies conducted for new molecules are showing an increase of the placebo effect. It is as if the program for self-healing is getting stronger.
Our beliefs seem to be a major factor in the whole process. If you want to make a presentation and you don’t have Powerpoint on your computer, it is much more difficult. In the same way, without the right beliefs, you cannot access certain levels of reality where, for example, your own inner power can heal you efficiently.
Don’t try to convince someone of anything. If the person does not have the right program, it will be almost impossible to believe you, because the reality of the person does not include this possibility. The famous St Thomas quote: “I believe what I can see”. Do you see electricity, do you see air, viruses, energy..?
Because we are the architects of our life and environment, our beliefs are creating our life and vice versa. If I see the glass half empty, my life is unfolding according to this belief. So I have every reason to keep believing the same thing and to reject the ‘half full’ notion. In other words, changing beliefs is a gamble and needs strong commitment and faith to succeed.
The only hope, seeing how someone else’s life is different, is for some people to question their beliefs. What is he/she doing differently to obtain this result? Too often the notion of “they’re just lucky” gives an easy reason not to questions your own beliefs and patterns. Exemplarity is the only way to perhaps make people move on from the half empty position.
The only advice that I can give you is to stay as open as you can in order to be able to download more programs allowing you to have a wider range of experiences. And what if the all notion of beliefs and programs is true- do you believe it?
It is all up to you.
