Trust is the opposite energy from resistance. When we trust, we say we are "going with the flow." But what is the flow? It's the way things are going. For instance, in line with the popular metaphor of a river, the flow is the direction the river is going in. Nothing mysterious or complicated about that. What complicates our getting into the flow is our resistance.
Everything in our lives is connected. The sun shines, and so flowers grow. The rain falls, and then trees can make leaves so the oxygen they produce can allow us to breathe. These connections are so seamless, we don't have to think about them in order for them to work. They just work. The same ...
Stuckness By, TB Wrightnnn At one time or another we all have said that we were "stuck." Let's examine this declaration, because saying those words is exactly what it is: a stand for being stuck. So what does it mean to be stuck? It usually means that there's somewhere we want to be at, either ...

For everything that comes our way in our lives, there is a use for it that can be life affirming if we but do a bit of planning for it, including our experiences of non-ordinary reality. Or, in the case of The Steel Shaman, especially our experiences of non-ordinary reality. Let's begin by defining the two terms here, non-ordinary reality, and The Steel Shaman. Non-ordinary reality implies that such experiences are in fact reality, as much as our "ordinary" reality is, and ye
You too can be inspired to live out your life dream, and in the same way as Oprah Winfrey is living out her particular dream. All of our dreams may be different, but the way to achieve them is, was, and always will be, the same! What if you could find out what that way is? You could then take ...
There is a path of knowledge whereby information can flow from that which is unknown, into that which is known. This flowing causes an inspiring vitality to be felt, the likes and depths of which is so overwhelming, that you might say it is the only true satisfaction that is ever experienced by human beings. This path is one which is customarily described as from "non-ordinary reality" into "ordinary reality" with the observation that the term "reality" is applied to both des
Goals And The Value Of Certainty and Faithnnby, TB Wrightnn It was my daughter's bike trip down the Virginia Creeper Trail, and I was arriving just as the seventeen mile journey was starting. I had to be late in order to accommodate attending my son's field trip the previous sleepover night of ...
Tom Wright What every single person on earth does, is to make other people wrong for the intentions that they imagined were behind acts that were done. Actual acts often happen, they are what is real. But the degree of significance that is assigned to that act, the meaning that is assigned to that act, and the degree of upset attached to the "wrongness" of that act, is something we all, every single one of us make up entirely.
TB Wright What is a distinction? Hot or cold. Up or down. Those are distinctions. They give us valuable information about the world around us. What is a meaning? It's good that it's hot. It's bad that it's cold. Those are meanings. They give us no information about the world around us. They only give us information about the world inside us. We make distinctions because they give us access to our power, through paying attention to the world around us.
This article will be short and sweet. Making distinctions, such as "hot/cold" is as important in self-help work, as it is when choosing what coat to wear today. In making any distinction, we have to define our separate terms, and then see where our beliefs overlapped them, until we got to the point where we confused the two.
Thinking that there's some magic formula out there, that if only you would find it out, then all of your success, money, love, and on and on, will finally arrive into your life. Then, like a flood gate bursting, this magic portal will be opened, and soul mates, friends, popularity, and fame and fortune will be yours. Hey, that's great! Show me that door. It's the old "If only I'd been taller" game we play with our minds. If only I'd been taller, then I would have gotten that good job!
TB Wright This will be a short article on the one most important factor in your life, in your success, and for the world, and that is: you. Unless you are as fully immersed within your own self-love, which means to be experiencing your inherent, already existing, never going anywhere, self-worthiness, then you are not reaching your full potential. My invitation? Start practicing. The way to start practicing is to do The Loving Process© over, and over, and over, again. How many times do you need to do those pushups?

Once we know what intention is, and is not, this distinction allows us to become specifically aware of its location in our bodies. Just like no one puts their shoes up in the same way when they get home, everyone has a different place where they store the energy of their intentions. This ...

TB Wright *This article is specifically designed to start a thought process that will lead us away from dissatisfaction, and on to satisfaction, through practice. This takes time. The invitation is to give yourself that time, and to practice the "tell the truth now, tell the truth later" method of success, which always works toward our satisfaction. We all have a myriad of things we like. No problem. We all have a myriad of things we do. No problem either. All of us also be, do, and have, a lot of things other than that which we like.
n When I was only twenty-two years old, the doctors sat on the edge of my bed and quietly pronounced that I had two weeks to live. That was thirty years ago, after four years of being constantly sick, and weakened by blood loss from ulcerative colitis. Either I, or my colon, had to go. Instead ...
n Money isn't what most people think it is, and that's why they don't have more of it. The one thing you have to shift in your thinking about money is the thought that it's static because it's not. Money is not like rocks, yet most people treat it that way. Money flows and money ...
There Is No Secret To Successnnby, TB Wrightnnn Success. Most people know that they want to be successful. Or do they? Successful? What does that mean? Don't kid yourself. In this society every time we use that word, we are immediately immersed within beliefs about success. Money, cars, houses, ...
The steps leading to the effortless use of powerful processes are sequential, and often seem complex because there can be many of them. But just like taking the first step up a long staircase, each subsequent step is as easy to take as the preceding one. It's only when we try to view whole ...
In part one of these three articles on the effective use of our energy of intention we discovered what intentions really are. In part two we practiced finding out where that energy physically originates from in our bodies, and then how to set it into motion so that that energy goes in the ...
We live in a world where information is king. Just go to the Internet and you can access someone, somewhere, who is willing to sell you information about something. The dilemma is in finding the true experts among the millions of information sellers who in the past, would have never dreamed of ...
n At times it seems our thinking thinks us, but that's only because we've been programmed to react in certain ways. We are most likely upset by what our parents, our peers, or our community taught us to be upset by, and by the way, still teach us to be upset by! They even taught us ...
The Loving Process© and The Success Of Healingnn*From Be BAD! Do Good! How To Get What You Want In Spite Of Yourself!nnn After a lifetime of breakthrough seminar work, I thought that somehow all that wisdom was going to protect me from life's hardships. After all, I had experienced hundreds of ...
Every path toward achieving any result is a process. An honest evaluation of this process is critical to producing results. Measurements must be made to determine if we are doing what we say we want to do, and achieving what we say we want to achieve. Either we are getting the job done, or it ...
The biggest win I ever experienced was on the day I finally realized that life isn't a game you can win, only play.* After that realization, playing every moment with all my heart became infinitely more important than whether I achieved a particular result. Amazingly, and as if in an instant ...
n I was watching a DVD the other night, The Astronaut Farmer, and it really made me think. As implausible as the actual story was, the myth it portrayed in human terms was of great value. Perhaps the very implausibility of the story was what made the truth behind the myth stand out to ...

n In order to be at our maximum effectiveness, in any area of our lives, from creating the perfect supportive relationship, to manifesting a million dollars, to experiencing perfect health, we have to first determine where we are: the position, perspective, or platform we are coming from, the ...
While our successes and failures, our rejections and acceptances, always seem as if they are directed to us personally, and we certainly do take them that way, most of the time they are not. Let's take our standard response that we have been programmed to "re-act" with, or to "act out over and ...
n There seem to be a certain number of hard wired skills we have, and one of them is our attention. Our attention isn't what we focus upon, but rather, our ability to stay focused on something. It is innate, natural, and isn't going to change, so we don't ever need to conce ourselves with ...
n People all around the world work too hard. What is too hard? Anything beyond enjoyment is too hard. If you are not enjoying what you are doing, you are working too hard at it. The solution? Play. What is play? It's the "playing, action, or conduct of a game." The game is life, and the conduct ...
Succeeding is like winning a foot race. We cross the finish line, win or lose, with all that we have. There aren't certain "parts" of ourselves that we leave behind, even though in the arena of personal growth it sometimes seems that way. It seems like we leave our ability for frustration, or ...
Socrates once said that "The unexamined life isn't worth living" but this is only exactly one-half of that equation. The secret of the second part which completes this whole is contained within the phrase "The unpracticed life isn't worth living." All too often we examine our lives, and then ...
