A Definition of Faith

Dictionary.com defines faith as;

• confidence or trust in a person or thing
• belief that is not based on proof

This is an accurate representation of what you need to practice and master - believing in the invisible or intangible.

If this is the first time you’re being introduced to acquiring faith in such large quantities then it may, at first glance, appear to be “impossible”. Let me first address this by saying that nothing is impossible and that particular word has no place in our dictionaries. If your mind can conceive it, then this universe has the ability to yield it.

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.

Faith is something that requires continuous effort to sustain. Putting in a few minutes of faith here and there isn’t going to cut it. If you desire something so much that you acquire a burning desire for it, then you should have no problem in finding the energy and time to spend developing your faith.

Dream it into being

My favourite way of developing faith is by day dreaming and meditation. When you visualize yourself already in possession of your desired outcome then you are in that moment applying faith. You want to become emotionally involved with your object of desire and really see yourself already enjoying that thing you want.

This should be great fun for you! There’s no need for it to be a strain or a hassle for you to do this. If you are feeling resentment in dreaming about yourself as already having your desire then you should consider asking yourself…

• Is this something you truly want?
• Do you feel as if you can have it?
• Will it bring you more joy?

If you cannot answer those questions with a definite YES then try reaching for something that is a little more within your current range.

An example of this would be for someone who has lived poverty for much of their life making the decision that they will be a millionaire by the end of the year. This is something that is most certainly attainable however the shifting of beliefs for the person may be too big a jump for them to make and so a lesser goal that still stretches their boundaries would be more appropriate. Only you can decide on what goal would be appropriate for you.

Affirmations

You were programmed with beliefs that may or may not serve you by repetition, so it makes perfect sense that in order to change we should use the same method to program ourselves with what we do want. This leads us nicely on to Chapter 3: Autosuggestion.
