"The beliefs that you hold as a result of your own experience are very strong, and we understand that you cannot release them immediately and replace them with others, even though we know there are many more productive beliefs that you could foster.

But there is something you can begin today that will make a profound difference in the way your life unfolds that does not require an immediate releasing of the beliefs that you currently hold: Start telling a more positive, better feeling story about your life and the things that are important to you.

Do not write your story like a factual documentary, weighing all the pros and cons of your experience, but instead tell the uplifting, fanciful, magical story of the wonder of your own life and watch what happens. It will feel like magic as your life begins to transform right before your eyes, but it is not by magic. It is by the power of the Laws of the Universe and your deliberate alignment with those Laws."

Abraham - Money and the Law of Attraction, p. 81

So what stories have YOU been telling yourself lately?

I have embarked upon a course in hypnotherapy. As a consequence of this program, I am to become a certified hypnotherapist at the end of an eight week program. This training, along with the CMI training in Aspect Therapy will equip me to see clients, and write and teach about these amazingly helpful modalities for working with consciousness to ease our passage through this extraordinary amusement park we call our lives.

I can see my new book now, it’s called “Frameworks & Transformations” and describes how to use this stuff in a way that is fun and easy, with lots of graphics. An e-book that makes these ideas accessible to anybody.

Meanwhile it is wonderful to be learning something new in a more or less formal setting. It has been decades since I dusted off my student aspect and sat down deliberately to learn a new body of knowledge, and it feels wonderful!

I’ve got highlighters and binders, books to read, notes to go over, exercises to try, and homework to do. All the forgotten pleasures of being a committed student of something new - lots of fun!

The really big payoff though, is sudden new visions I have been having internally of just who I am allowing myself to become. The structure of the course naturally carries one’s mind forward two months to the finish line. Before Christmas, I will write the exam and probably become a certifiable hypnographer in the new year!

But seriously, I will be officially sanctioned to work with people’s consciousness in a supportive and nurturing way. This certification combined with the upcoming CMI - 3 which will give me another certificate, will make for a very credible display on the wall of the waiting room. All of this represents a very cool new persona for me!

And the probabilities of this future event are huge now that we have paid our money and engaged the program. Subjectively I can already feel myself expanding in marvelous new ways to manifest this very positive new perspective on who and what I AM.
