2 Imagination Holds The Key

3 We're going to give you a very powerful statement: Everything that you will some day live, in terms of life experience - and by some day, we mean as soon as right now, tomorrow, the next day, or some day - anything that you will some day live, you have first imagined

4 Because nothing will manifest in your experience without the imagination process happening first. The Teachings of Abraham by Jerry and Esther Hicks

5 The Incredible Power of Thought, Emotion, and Belief 2009 Spirit of Golf, LLC

6 There is stuff...

7 There is Mind s response to stuff...

8 As we change Mind s response to stuff...

9 the stuff begins to change

10

11 It s not hitting a bad golf shot that causes emotional pain; perceive it s how we the shot and the meaning we attach to it that creates frustration and anger

12 As we consciously and deliberately improve what goes on inside of us, things outside of us effortlessly fall into place

13 Shift from a paradigm where we believe that it is randomly happening to us (victim) to one where we begin to know that we are manifesting in every moment (empowerment)

14 Seven No-Win Stories We Tell Ourselves

15 fix If I my swing, my shots will go straighter and farther, my score will improve and then (and only then) will I be happy 1

16 I am what I score 2

17 Trying harder will get me the results I want to achieve 3

18 If I can mentally figure things out, everything will be OK 4

19 I care (lots) what other think people about me 5

20 Something outside of me can make me happy or sad 6

21 I m not good enough 7

22 On a very intuitive level, we know it is the makings of Mind that are holding us back...

23 We talk a lot about golf being a mental game, but what does that really mean?

24 Peak performance comes as we balance the energies of head and heart

25 Things I Can/Cannot Control

26 Things I Can/Cannot Control Things I Can Manage Things Outside My Control

27 Things I Can/Cannot Control Things I Can Manage Attitude Perception Pre-shot routine Post-shot routine Focus Emotions Mindset Imagination Things Outside My Control Where the ball goes How my body moves Score Winning Losing Weather What others do/don t do

28 Conclusion?

29 Conclusion? Most of what I get upset over is totally beyond my control

30 At The Level of Mind

31 Every painful emotional experience is about a non-acceptance of what is

32 There is an underlying belief that things are not supposed to be wrong or out of place

33 We fall into a victim mode whenever we see conditions outside ourselves creating our problems rather than our internal perception fueling the event

34 it s not fair

35 Any problem comes to us only because we have focused our attention long enough to label and judge something as a problem

36 On an energy level, whatever we resist persists (further intensify) and whatever we go to war with we strengthen and intensify

37 A ghost is dragged along whenever we are emotionally connected to what happened rather than to what is

38 The mind attaches meaning to a past event and we think/feel the event is still happening (mind/body has not updated)

39 The unwanted thing is perceived as perpetual and real and the deeper part of us confuses then with Now

40 Something bad has happened which I am feeling terrible about over which I believe I have no control

41 Stuck-ness results in an inability to move forward because the mind is locked into the (repetitive) past

42 People who are stuck focus on what they don t want rather than what they desire

43 We become pathological (problem-based) fixers rather than creators moving toward what we desire

44 "Fear only exists when you do not understand that you have the power to project thought and that the Universe will respond. - Esther and Jerry Hicks, The Teachings of Abraham

45 We all have the ability to focus our way out of negativity and move closer to what we want and desire in any moment

46 Forming Our Belief Systems

47 A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again A belief is just a thought I keep thinking over and over again. From the teachings of Abraham by Esther and Jerry Hicks

48 We are mostly unaware of the constant and non-stop static and chatter running through the brain

49 We become certain (stubborn and defensive) that our thoughts and beliefs are the way the world really is (thoughts = beliefs = realities)

50 Reality is nothing more than our individual perception (stories) about what is real

51 I am right I told you so

52 Associative Memory

53 Most (if not all) of our present day experiences were first learned as a child 0 6 years old

54 What we think of and perceive as real today is really a collection of the associations we made a long time ago (remembered experiences)

55 The brain can process only a fraction (1%) of eyes what the see

56 We think that something is real because we see it a certain way, really when it it works the other way around

57 We see something because it has already been filtered by the brain through memory, and as we remember something, something is what we see Memory = Thought

58 From the movie, What the Bleep Do We Know

59 Out of belief comes our ability to imagine and create

60 Must believe that anything is possible for anything new to appear

61 otherwise limited to same old thought patterns and same old stuff

62 We cannot change what see we until we first change what we believe

63 Real change requires a courageous inner journey beyond memory and our preconditioned patterns of thought, emotion and belief

64 The bottom line, at least as far as science has gone up till now, is this: We create the world we perceive. When I open my eyes and look around, it is not the world that I see

65 but the world my human sensory equipment is able to see, the world my belief system allows me to see, and the world that my emotions care about seeing or not seeing. - From the book, What the Bleep Do We Know?

66 Begin thinking eyes of the as a flashlight or projector rather than something we see through

68 The (Quantum) Field of Infinite Possibilities

69 The Quantum is the Field of infinite power and possibility

70

71 We now know there s a field of energy that underlies all physical existence. This field is so new in its discovery that scientists have yet to agree

72 upon a single term; it s called everything from simply the field to the mind of God, to nature s mind. In 1944, Max Planck, the father of quantum theory, called it the matrix. Gregg Braden, author of The Spontaneous Healing of Belief

73 Until very recently, there was an assumption that space was empty and stuff was solid and real

74 What seems like no-thing (the space) waves are of energy that are pulsating, highly intelligent and unimaginably powerful

75 There is more power and potential energy within one cubic centimeter of space than there is in all of the matter within the entire Universe. Dr. David Hawkins

76 Most people think that the vacuum is empty. (But if we) take the vacuum within a single hydrogen atom and take the latent energy in that, there is a trillion times more energy there than in all of the mass of all of the stars and all of the planets out to 20 billion light-years. That s big From the movie Down the Rabbit Hole

77 What seems solid (the stuff) is ultimately made up of space

78 As we expand into a broader perspective, we begin to see the stuff

79 not as solid, but as space with (highly intelligent/organized) specks of particles that make things appear to be solid and real (illusion)

80

81 Everything exists in the quantum Field as unmanifested power and unlimited possibility until we do one thing

82 We give something our attention and intention through: Focus Imagination Passion Observation Awareness Consciousness

83 It s through belief and imagination that the wave pattern collapses and nothingness gets transformed into somethingness

84 We rearrange infinite into finite (stuff) through the power of the Mind

85 Altering the Field (of Illusion)

86 Everything is Energy, and energy is Every - thing

87 What we are seeing in manifested physical form is the collapsing of infinite possibility into a single reality

88 A golf shot becomes nothing more or less than the projection of thought, emotion and belief

89 Atoms do not touch (huh?)

90 Thought matter(s) Thoughts become things Every thought begins to rearrange the atoms of the Universe Imagination/intention creates Cannot see, do or be anything outside belief

91 The key is to move beyond the illusion of the stuff and tap into the infinite power and pure potentiality that always exists inside of us

92 Because nothing will manifest in your experience without the imagination process happening first. The Teachings of Abraham by Jerry and Esther Hicks

93 The Body as an Energy System 2009 Spirit of Golf, LLC

94 The toaster and the electricity

95 Through the misperception of the ego, we see ourselves as a body (the toaster)

96 We are mostly ( % - ) energy (the electricity)

97 Most of us spend our entire lives focused on the toaster (and the toast) rather than the electricity

98 body The is made of information and energy and (mis)perceived as solid matter

99 We ignore the (energetic) messages bodies our are every telling us in moment through our emotions

103 Law of Attraction

104 Interestingly, the invisible energy field that shapes matter, as defined by quantum physicists, has the same characteristics as the invisible shaping fields that metaphysicians define as spirit. Dr. Bruce Lipton, Spontaneous Evolution, Our Positive Future

105 Law of Attraction is the simplest and (singlemost powerful) Universal law there is

106 Whatever I give my attention (energy) to will begin to appear in my life Thought Matters

107 Your wish is my command

116 The following quotes are excerpts on The Law of Attraction from a variety of printed and recorded materials from: The Teachings of Abraham by Esther and Jerry Hicks

117 Whatever you have the ability to conceive, this Universe has the ability to provide. Anything, without exception. So your work is on the conjuring of the idea, period. The Universe has the stuff to deliver the goods, and will.

118 Your ability to imagine will help the next logical steps come to you faster. Work the bugs out in your imagination. You don't have to build little things and bigger things. You can do it all in your mind. We're not talking about the next logical action step. Use your imagination until your big dream feels so familiar that the manifestation is the next logical step.

119 there is an important distinction that we want you to understand that will help you mold your life into that which pleases you. This is a mental process, not an action process. It is about aligning your thoughts; it is not about taking action in order to achieve results.

120 Leverage your time more by spending a little more time every day imagining and a lot less time every day doing. Do a little more imagining and a little more less doing. Until eventually most of what s happening is happening in the cool, calm, anticipatory state. Just imagine yourself into the successes, and watch what happens.

121 No matter what it is, if you really want it, and if you get out of the way of it, it will happen. It must be. It is Law. It can be no other way. It's the way this Universe is established. If you want it and you relax, it will happen.

122 You think about transmitting outward: "I'm going to affect the world from my outgoing signal." That isn't the way it works. You affect the world by achieving the vibration that brings the signals to you. You create a nucleus that the Universe has to respond around. That is how you are the creator.

123 It s not your work to make anything happen. It s your work to dream it and let it happen. Law of Attraction will make it happen. In your joy, you create something, and then you maintain your vibrational harmony with it, and the Universe must find a way to bring it about. That s the promise of Law of Attraction.

124 We get what we energetically vibrate whether or not we know the signals we are vibrating

125 We can t want something and doubt we ll get it and hope to attract it into our experience

126 We can t want something and believe in it and not receive it

128 Where Do We Go From Here?

129 The Present Moment

130 Every thought we have surrounds one of two things

131 Past Future

132 Most thought separates us from the unfathomable power of the here and Now

133 All of our power is in the present moment

134 Through the light of (present moment) awareness we begin to see the illusion of wasted thoughts and beliefs

135 As we see the illusion of thought, we can use the power of the Now to let go of past and imagine what we want in the future

136 Accepting Responsibility

137 One of the difficult transitions we make on our journey of personal transformation is a shift out of the victim mentality (you did this to me)

138 We begin to accept there are no coincidences or accidents events take place that we think are random are not - they are energized by us in thought form first

139 We empower ourselves by accepting responsibility that we have imagined our experiences into Being

140 Ultimately we come to K(now) (we know in the Now) we are responsible for attracting everything wanted and unwanted into our lives

141 not It is happening to us; it is happening through us and because of us

142 Eventually you come to see that everything outside you is a reflection of your own thinking

143 You are the storyteller, the projector of all stories, and the world is the projected image of your thoughts. Byron Katie, Loving What Is

144 Your environment is the physical picture of your thoughts, emotions and beliefs made physical. Jane Roberts The Nature of Personal Reality

145 The Key: Emotional Guidance

146 Emotional (inner) guidance begins with an investigation of what we are thinking and feeling here and Now

147 in relation to where we want to be

148 Two points of emotional relativity

149 Where I Am Now

150 Where I Want to Be Where I Am Now

151 Where I Want to Be The Emotional Gap Where I Am Now

152 Where I Want to Be Joy/Empowerment/Freedom/Love Appreciation/Passion Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness Positive Expectation/Belief Optimism/Hopefulness/Contentment The Emotional Gap Boredom/Pessimism Frustration/Irritation/Impatience Disappointment/Doubt/Worry Blame/Discouragement Anger/Revenge Hatred/Jealousy Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness Fear/Depression Despair/Powerlessness Where I Am Now

153 Where I Want to Be Joy/Empowerment/Freedom/Love Appreciation/Passion Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness Positive Expectation/Belief Optimism/Hopefulness/Contentment Boredom/Pessimism Frustration/Irritation/Impatience Disappointment/Doubt/Worry Blame/Discouragement Anger/Revenge Hatred/Jealousy Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness Fear/Depression Baby Steps Despair/Powerlessness Where I Am Now

155 Stop resisting (giving attention to) what we don t like or want

156 Move toward (imagine) what we want and desire

157 Detach. Shift. Embrace.

158 Detach.

159 The art of (energetically) going with the Flow

160 We become culturally conditioned to see things as good vs. bad (evil)

161 No good or bad; only good or our resistance to good (which is often what we think of and label as bad)

162 Consider it like a stream that can only flow in one direction downstream. We can either be in the downstream flow of happiness and joy or we can be paddling upstream and fighting peak performance with lots of resistance, tension, trying and grinding.

163 We go with the flow by letting go of the oars to access the unfathomable power of the here and Now Allowing Trust Surrender Acceptance Non-attachment Non-judgment

164 Begin to stop resisting what we don t want... Detach

165 Accept and allow whatever is to be Detach

166 Effectively practiced through conscious breathing and meditation Detach

167 Detachment = resignation Detach

168 Detach. Shift.

169 Shift toward a positive state of what is desired Shift

170 Shift from solid emotional ground Shift

171 Difficult to shift out of strong negative emotions (need to detach first) Shift

172 What do I want and desire and how wonderful does it feel? Shift

173 Effectively practiced through reframing/ affirmations Shift

174 Find the feeling as if the desire is already in place Shift

175 Detach. Shift. Embrace.

176 Turn up the fun Embrace

177 Amplify the joy and bliss we are experiencing Now Embrace

179 The Breath

180 Offers a point of stillness used to observe the Mind and quiet the mental and emotional chatter

181 We slow down thought, action, reaction and stuck-ness through conscious breathing

182 Practice is used to access insight and guidance

183 We effortlessly move into the stillness, peace and joy that are the true nature of our being

184 The mind follows 1 the breath

185 The body follows 2 the mind

186 Just breathe 3

187 Be aware of your breathing as often as you are able, whenever you remember. Do that for one year, and it will be more powerfully transformative than attending all of these courses. And it s free. Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth

188 Make the breath part of your pre-shot routine Breathing Practices

189 Breathing Practices Use the breath to: Stimulate (or) Calm down

190 Breathing Practices Deep belly breathing

191 Breathing Practices Focused attention (third eye)

192 Breathing Practices Ocean breath

193 The Manifestation Process

194

195 Manifestation is the art of deliberate and conscious creation

196 Begins with imagining something different and better and allowing it into our lives

197 The imaginative power of the Mind precedes anything the body can or cannot do This is not a story about the chicken and the egg

198 Requires a paradigm shift from seeing is believing to one where believing is seeing (before the proof)

199 Step One

200 Imagine what we want and desire 1

201 Do not have to consciously know what the desire is 1

202 Step Two

203 Emotionalize with feeling the belief that the already desire is in place (I already am that) 2

204 Personalize by having an improved sense of self (esteem) in relation to the desire 2

205 Act (feel) as if... (ask why? 2

206 Step Three

207 Surrender allow and things to flow(er) and unfold 3

208 Trust/faith in the Universe to deliver the goods No need to know how and who and where and when 3

209 Step Four

210 Stay totally focused on feeling the desire as if it s already in place 4

211 Requires a moment-to-moment awareness of thoughts and how they feel 4

212 Am I allowing or am I resisting the Flow? 4

213 Stop being a but-head 4

214 Manifestation Process What do I want? Emotionalize/act as if Surrender/allow/trust Stay focused on desire

215 The Only Thing Holding Us Back

216 Self sabotage (the only kind there is) occurs for one of two reasons

217 1. We don t really want what we think we want

218 1. We don t really want what we think we want 2. We don t really believe we can have it (not an energetic match to the desire)

219 "Fear only exists when you do not understand that you have the power to project thought and that the Universe will respond. - Esther and Jerry Hicks, The Teachings of Abraham

220 Act/Feel As If

221

222 Wouldn t It Be Nice If

223 Wouldn t it be nice if (keep it in the Now)

224 What and Why

225 What do I want and I do I want it (feel as if it is a done deal)

226 Anchoring the Emotion I Want to Feel

227 Most times the pre-shot routine focuses on kinesthetic and visual imagination and ignores emotional cues

228 Access the emotion feel you want to after you hit the shot before you hit the ball

229 Acceptance Confidence Enjoyment/Fun Letting Go Commitment Appreciation

230 breathe in the feeling, amplify and anchor it (tapping)

231 Telling A New Story I Believe

232 Tell ourselves a feel-good story we believe; then anchor it into the preshot routine

233 The story does not have to be about golf

234 Our story includes: The breath A kinesthetic feel (rhythm and tempo) The emotion we want to access and feel (act as if) The target

235 Examples: I breathe in rhythm and tempo as I gaze at the target I gently connect with the target I calmly set the club on plane and feel the ball explode to the hole

236 Connecting mind/body/spirit: The essence of who we already are and always will be

237 In Closing

238 You can t solve a problem with the same mind that created it Albert Einstein

239 Wisdom is avoiding all thoughts which weaken you Dr. Wayne Dyer

240 When you ask, it is given, every single time, no exceptions. You are beloved, blessed Beings who deserve good things - but it takes a self-convincing before you will allow good things. The Teachings of Abraham by Jerry and Esther Hicks

241 A wish for you today is that you have a fabulous game of golf, and an even more wonderful day playing Life Spirit of Golf
