The Law of Reversed Effort
Are you still getting the opposite of what you desire? We read about having our conscious (will-power) and unconscious (imagination) in congruence.
However an explanation of why is somewhat harder to locate.
The law of reversed effort is essential to getting what you desire. Explained simply The law of reversed effort states the harder you try ( conscious will-power) to do something, the less chance you have of achieving it.
Imagine you are out walking and come across a cake shop. Through the window you see a delicious Cream with Jam Bun. Just the thought of it starts one salivating. Your conscious will is saying move on as the Cream and Jam Bun is not good for your weight control. And so it is not. Your unconscious mind (imagination) at the same time is working against you. The imagination is showing you pictures of how you will feel biting into the bun, your taste buds delightfully sending messages of pleasure to your brain and all the pleasant feelings your body will associate with the Cream and Jam Bun.
The question is what chance do we have with the imagination. This is why imagination trumps will power.
Since the will power now lost the battle with imagination, as we enjoy our Cream with Jam Bun, let us work on our real power. Our imagination.
When we align our imagination with the conscious will our desires will be attracted to us effortlessly. To bring our will power and imagination into congruence we will change our imagination toward our desired result.
Using visualization, imagine passing on the bun for a better looking you down the track. The plaudits you will receive, “wow you look fantastic”, “how did you get that body”. Imagine how much more respect you will have for yourself. How great you will feel in the light of the new you.
This will bring your will power and imagination into congruence with your imagination remaining the dominant thought. Say goodbye to self sabotaging and use the power of imagination to get what you truly desire.
