Thought vs Action - Which Matters Most?
Plenty of people believe in order to get what we want,
we have to go out and make it happen. That we have to roll
up our sleeves and pay our dues to earn our reward. They would argue
our thoughts aren't what make the difference - action is.
Latest research is beginning to show, however, that our thoughts
ARE things that play a role in what happens. Author Lynne McTaggart
compiles many of those studies in her book "The Intention Experiment,"
which raises eyebrows among even law of attraction skeptics.
For an open-minded person, the question surfaces about the value
of thought and action and how they interplay when it comes to creating
the lives we want.
Hard core proponents of the law of attraction tell us action isn't
what makes the difference in getting what we want. They believe
all that matters in regards to what manifests in our life is what
we vibrate. They say you don't have to figure out how to make your
dream come true - you just vibrate it and Universe will deliver.
In the middle of the road are other metaphysical practitioners who
believe that thought alone won't get you anywhere, but that the
combination of thought and action is what creates powerful change
in our lives.
Who's got it right? Folks who believe action is what makes things
happen? Those who believe thoughts alone create everything? Or those
in between?
Here's how thought and action reallywork in our world and how we
can best use them to easily and swiftly achieve our dreams.
THE ROLE OF ACTION
Let's take for example someone who wants financial abundance. Most
people who want more money have been trained to believe we have
to earn it, that getting more money means getting a raise, working
more hours, picking up a second job or getting more clients. Some
resort to reducing expenses, while others sign up for training or
education to be more valuable in the work place. Still others rely
on chance by participating in the lottery or going to Vegas.
Are these actions effective? Is there a right or wrong way to approach
financial prosperity? Although plenty of experts would sell you
their formula for financial success, there IS no absolute right
or wrong action. Some things work for some people and not for others.
That's because it isn't the action itself that makes the difference.
It's how you feel about the action that matters most.
Which means your results in life aren't dictated as much by the
actions you take as they are about your feelings about the action.
The important question becomes how does this action make you
feel? No one can know that but you. Some people pick up a second
job and feel empowered and on track; others pick up a second job
and feel desperate and spiraling downward.
What we feel is what matters. That's what makes up our vibration,
which is what the Universe answers. We're not awarded happy endings
as a result of a price we pay or the amount of effort we expend
or how much we've suffered in order to deserve it. It's simply a
matter of getting what we vibrate.
So if we're going to rely on action to get what we want, at the
very least we want to ensure the action we take allows us to vibrate
alignment with our end goal. Otherwise, we're actually holding at
bay the results we want.
THE POWER OF THOUGHT
Let's look at it from the standpoint of relying on thought (or vibration)
alone in order to get what we want.
Some practitioners of the law of attraction have been taught we'll
be handed all our dreams and desires if we simply believe them real.
We're told the brain doesn't know the difference between what's
real and what's imagined, so if we just imagine strong enough and
long enough that we are rich, the Universe has to make it so.
And we need never leave the comfort of our couch in order to let
it happen.
The problem for most of us is that it's a nice concept, but we've
been so conditioned to believe action is required that believing
in the power of thought alone is a little farfetched. If we don't
believe we can manifest money "magically" into our lives,
it's not likely to happen.
My experience with most people is that although we might want to
believe we can think something into existence, we often hold an
element of doubt about it. (That doesn't mean it's not possible
and that people aren't already doing it!)
COMBINING THE TWO
The power for most people is combining the power of thought with
our reliance and belief in action. When we leverage thought to create
a vibration aligned with the results we desire, and we take action
that enhances that vibration, our creative power shines. That's
when it looks to outsiders as if we were favored by the gods, living
a charmed life where everything goes our way.
Taking the action we think will serve us very often is what triggers
an aligned vibration. In fact, very often deliberate creators find
once they get their vibration lined up (by holding proper thoughts
and feeling aligned emotions), they don't even have to take action
before good things start happening.
Many of us approach our dreams backwards. We think we have to "figure
out" what to do in order to get what we want. We think action
is required and that's what we focus on. But if we never check in
on how that action feels, we spin our wheels frustrating ourselves
to the point where we often give up - or at least go at it the hard
way.
Things go much smoother and manifest more quickly when we first
get our vibration lined up (by thinking right thoughts and feeling
good) and then taking inspired action.
Have fun playing with getting your energy lined up with what you
want first, and then check in on what feels good to do next. Combining
the power of right thought and inspired action allows for really
cool manifestations in your life.
