Understanding Your Internal Resonance #

Beyond the purely tangible, our internal states—our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs—profoundly influence our physiological responses, cognitive patterns, and behavioral tendencies. This intricate interplay forms a dynamic internal ‘blueprint’ that shapes how we perceive and interact with the world. Understanding this fundamental principle is key to consciously shaping your reality.

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” — Nikola Tesla

Mindsets: Fear vs. Faith, Scarcity vs. Abundance #

Underlying all these models is our fundamental mindset. Are we operating from a place of fear or faith? Fear-based thinking often drives the Have-Do-Be and Do-Have-Be models. We fear not having enough, not being good enough, or not achieving external markers of success. This fear can lead to anxiety, constant striving, and a feeling of never being truly satisfied.

In contrast, operating from a place of faith (whether in oneself, the universe, or a higher power) aligns more with the Be-Do-Have model. It’s the belief that by focusing on who you are becoming and taking aligned action, the desired outcomes will manifest. This doesn’t mean passive waiting, but rather a confident and purposeful engagement with life, knowing that your efforts are guided and supported. This faith, when coupled with a healthy obsession, transforms mere effort into an unstoppable force, propelling you towards your desired outcomes with unwavering conviction. For many, this faith extends to a belief in God, providing a profound sense of peace and assurance that their path is divinely guided, and that challenges are opportunities for growth.

This understanding profoundly impacts your mindset. A scarcity mindset is characterized by a persistent focus on perceived limitations, fear, and competition. This cognitive pattern can trigger physiological stress responses, narrow attentional focus, and lead to behaviors such as hoarding, a reluctance to collaborate, and chronic anxiety about resources or missed opportunities. In this state, your internal system is primed to detect and reinforce perceived lack.

Conversely, an abundance mindset fosters a state of gratitude, generosity, and collaboration. This cognitive and emotional orientation promotes neural pathways associated with positive affect and open-mindedness, leading to behaviors such as freely sharing knowledge, celebrating the successes of others, and confidently pursuing new ventures. This mindset cultivates an internal environment conducive to recognizing and attracting opportunities.

The Rider’s Influence on the Horse’s Disposition #

In the analogy of the Rider and the Horse, this ’energetic blueprint’ is akin to the overall ‘mood’ or ‘disposition’ of the Horse, which is heavily influenced by the Rider’s (your conscious mind’s) consistent guidance and internal state. A Rider who constantly projects fear and scarcity will find their Horse anxious and resistant, prone to stumbling or shying away from challenges. Conversely, a Rider who embodies confidence and abundance, consistently guiding them with clear, positive intent, will find the Horse responsive, powerful, and eager to move forward, even through unfamiliar terrain. Your conscious choices as the ‘Rider’ directly shape the ‘Horse’s’ (your subconscious and physiological responses) readiness to navigate the journey of manifestation.

Universal Impact of Energetic States #

Consider a job seeker approaching interviews with a scarcity mindset, convinced that jobs are rare and competition is fierce. Their anxiety might manifest as poor body language, hesitant answers, and a general lack of confidence, ultimately confirming their initial belief. In contrast, a job seeker with an abundance mindset, believing in their value and the availability of opportunities, might exude confidence, engage authentically, and attract positive attention, leading to a successful outcome. This principle applies to relationships, health, and any area where your internal state influences external results.

My Own Mindset Shift #

Early in my trading journey, I was often plagued by a scarcity mindset. Every loss felt catastrophic, every missed opportunity a personal failure. I would approach the market with fear, constantly worried about losing what little I had, which paradoxically led to more losses. My internal state was one of anxiety and desperation. It was only when I consciously began to cultivate an abundance mindset—trusting in the process, focusing on learning rather than just profit, and believing in my capacity for growth—that my results began to shift. This wasn’t about ignoring risk, but about approaching it from a place of calm confidence rather than paralyzing fear. This internal shift was profound, transforming my relationship with the market and, by extension, with myself.

Cultivating a Positive Energetic Blueprint #

Your emotions are powerful indicators of your current internal state. Chronic engagement with emotions like shame, guilt, apathy, grief, fear, and anger can lead to sustained physiological stress responses and reinforce limiting cognitive biases. In contrast, cultivating emotions such as courage, neutrality, willingness, acceptance, reason, love, joy, peace, and enlightenment promotes states of well-being and cognitive flexibility. To shift towards more adaptive internal states, cultivate practices like:

1. Mindfulness and Meditation: To observe thoughts and emotions without judgment.
2. Daily Gratitude: To shift focus from lack to abundance.
3. Positive Affirmations: To reprogram subconscious beliefs.
4. Acts of Selfless Service: To foster generosity and connection.
5. Spending Time in Nature: To reconnect with a sense of peace and vastness.

Aligning Your Inner World with Your Desires #

This conscious cultivation of your internal blueprint is a vital component of the ‘Be’ in the Be-Do-Have model, allowing you to attract your desired reality by first embodying it internally. By mastering your energetic state, you empower the Rider to guide the Horse with a powerful, positive resonance, ensuring your journey is one of conscious creation and abundant manifestation.
