Vicious Cycle? Review your Cause and Effect Beliefs
Catherine Ponder, one of my favorite cause and effect experts, is one of the most respected woman leaders of positive thinking, and law of attraction in spiritual practice. Beyond The Secret Rhonda Byrne, she knows a thing or two about helping women improve our personal lives - she has been helping people for all of her life. Albert Einstein also based his philosophy on cause and effect theory. Let's look at Catherine Ponder's take on this key issue, and how it can help you attract less of what you do Not want and more of what you Do Want.
Though she speaks from a spiritual religious place, which may be contrary to your own, I highly recommend her books for any woman interested in progressing more quickly in solving her own problems. She speaks in terms of basing our attempts on positive change in truth, not fantasy. Her works did not look like any other minister’s writings in the day, and now, many spiritual leaders have followed suit. She specifically mentioned law of attraction, and I first stumbled on the term in her powerful book, The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity, many years ago (see carousel, below).
What is Cause and Effect Theory? (try the Exercise below) In the scientific field, it is at the basis for much experimentation. Do you remember your first high school chemistry labs? The physics experiments, perhaps? As a science and nature fan, I sure do! Aristotle taught it, as many other geniuses did. For our real women, problem solving purposes, suffice it to say that, given circumstances inevitably produce standard results. This is evidence-based cause and effect truth, accepted by scientists and philosophers.
What problem are you trying to solve? The one that eludes you? The one where you seem to be repeating the same mistakes over and over again? Thinking consistently, hopefully, about finding a solution for a problem, combined with parallel action, does bring positive results. Not convinced? Explore the work of Madame Curie, the first person to receive two Nobel Prizes. Your thoughts are one of, if not the most important part of the cause at the root of your problem. The effect you desire will emerge, just as it already has for you in any area of your life where you do have good results. You did not avoid thinking of the positive goal in those areas, did you? An event cannot precede its cause.
And so, in order to create sustainable positive change in your life, have you looked at the true underlying thinking causes of the problem of most concern to you today?
Cause and Effect Exercise. Answer these soul searching questions to ferret out your most significant truths:
1. What is my greatest problem today?
2. What are all possible and known causes of this problem? These can be causes I am totally responsible for, or causes outside my control. Keep writing until you can not think of one more tiny possible cause. Some women will come up with as little as 5, some as many as 46 or more!
3. Highlight all causes which you know, deep down, that if you applied your attention, energy and focus to, over time, you would create positive change.
What you have done, is clarifyyour cause and effect truth. No woman’s is exactly the same. Two women with the same amount of debt, will have greatly differing lists. Two women facing the same weight loss challenges will present amazingly varying lists. Clarifying is an important element of evidence-based law of attraction application. No lamp. No genie.
Yes, you create what you think about. And yes, there are many coincidences which occur along the way, indicating an as yet unexplained and perhaps spiritual element to this process. However – you must be realistic and truthfully assess your responsibility in your current problem, to make speedy progress in attracting less of what you do not want and more of what you do want.
Cause and Effect Expert. Catherine Ponder's personal life reads as an example of her own teachings and women’s law of attraction solutions. Living in financial hardship, and a single mother, she discovered what she considered the ancient secrets of manifestation. From there she has become a renowned authority, and has been abundantly rewarded for her excellent work. A great example of healthy living in old age, she is still teaching about abundance, in her Palm Desert, California church.
