The Power of Belief

I come across this inspiring story today that again demostrate the power of human mind. That's when we are clear on what we want, and we really focus and belief that it will happen with faith, the universe will answer and it will become reality. I remember one phrase by T Harv Ecker, "Where attention go, energy flow and result shown". Where's our attention in our life? I sometimes asking myself, where is my attention and focus is? Is that area what I wanted to improve? Sometimes it just weird that i give my attention and focus on some unnecessary incident. I jus gotta practice more on how to focus.... ;p

Below is the inspiring story that demostrate "The Power of Belief". Hope we all benefited from it.

They said she would never walk again. Paralyzed from the waist down, Beverly Kearney the Head Track and Field Coach at the University of Texas laid in her hospital bed recovering from 3 five hour surgeries to correct a protruded spine, skull fracture and severe lacerations—the result of a car crash. Its mind boggling what a head on car crash and being thrown 50 feet from the car like a rag doll can do to the human body. But what is even more amazing is the power of the human spirit to overcome. Bev, a 5 time national champion track star in college, never looked in mirror after her accident. She never saw the lacerations or other physical affects of the accident. She always saw herself as the person she was before the accident. She never blamed anyone or said “why me”. When visitors came to her room all sad and crying she kicked them out. “It isn’t a funeral she told them; it’s a place of healing.” Bev didn’t plan on getting worse. She planned on getting better. She never embraced the Doctor’s diagnosis when they said she would have pain and other complications for the rest of her life. No, Bev was too busy and too focused on the fact that she was going to walk again. “It’s all about what you allow into your mind,” Bev told me. “And I only allowed the positive in and kept the negative out.” She even refused to get into a wheel chair until they finally convinced here to use it only to get to rehab to be able to walk again.

Then one day as Bev lay in her hospital bed looking at a poster of The Texas Relays, the biggest track meet of the year in front of 20,000 fans, she made the declaration that she was going to stand up on her own two feet at that event. An inconceivable notion to the average person since the Texas Relays was only 4 months away. But inconceivable was not in Bev’s vocabulary. She believed it would be so and so it would be.

4 Months later on a beautiful April day in front of 20,000 cheering fans Bev Kearney heard nothing but silence as time stopped and she stood up on her own two legs. The power of believing was on display for all to witness.

Several years later Bev is walking, and coaching and thriving. She says she was a good coach before the accident. But now she is a phenomenal coach. She and her team have won two national championships since the accident and getting ready for a third. Her goals are to keep winning national titles, write books, and help young women pursue their dreams through her non-profit foundation “Pursuit of Dreams.” Her message to these girls and the world is: “Thoughts, Words, Deeds. If you can think it and really believe it then you can do it.”

I couldn’t think of a better role model to share this message than Beverly Kearney, University of Texas Head Track and Field Coach and role model for us all.

Sending Positive Energy your Way,

Energy In Motion -> Emotion

Recently, I'm listening to a recorded seminar called "The Enlightened Wealth." In this seminar series, the author T Harv Ecker shared a lot of the intra-personal relationship with wealth. Wealth the attention of the Capitalism society.

Among the very interesting idea the author shared, one of them is "Emotion." What a Big Word, it's usually more than 70% of our life surround with emotion. Harv explained that Emotion is actually energy in motion within us. However, most of us will keep this "Emotion" inside us, without expressing it out. And this will cause a big problem caused the energy lock within us will just keep finding a way out, and we might be fighting it to keep it inside. Until we really cannot fight it, then it exploded and we might do some stupid things and then wondering why we did what we do when our intelligence take control again. (High emotion, Low intelligence)

So, are your "Energy in Motion" stuck within you waiting to be unlocked? Perhaps it's time to learn to handle the emotion and express it in a appropriate way so that it won't become a timed-bomb. It's really a life long learning journey on this big subject.
