How To Rebalance Your Internal State And Achieve Happiness: Exploring The Greatest Principle
When it comes to finding true, lasting happiness, Beyond Willpower suggests that the answer lies within yourself.
Everything that is ailing you can be identified and controlled internally, even if the problems seem to be external issues like physical or financial obstacles, divorce, or whatever it may be.
The book explains how you can gain control of your internal state of mind by rebalancing the energy in your body, as well as setting goals that can make you happier.
You will learn first-hand why a pay raise or breast enlargement won’t make you feel a real sense of joy; how the search for contentment differs drastically from a child’s yearning for candy; and why even after a heart transplant some people find themselves still craving unhealthy fast food.
If you want to discover genuine happiness and fulfilment, Beyond Willpower shows that you have the power to do this in as little as 40 days by looking within yourself and learning why what really matters isn’t material objects or superficial achievements – it’s something much deeper!
The True Goal For Your Success Is An Inner State Of Mind, Not External Circumstances
When it comes to finding out what you want more than anything else in the world, it’s important to recognize that your ultimate goal should be based on an internal force, not an external one.
Most people choose goals like money, achievement or health when asked this question, but these things will not provide lasting satisfaction.
While money may bring about some temporary joy or a sense of accomplishment for a particular task, it is not a guarantee of long-term happiness or peacefulness.
A better approach is to create a goal based on achieving a particular emotion or feeling – like love or contentment – as these are goals that will resonate with you each day and motivate you from within.
This type of internal force is actually something that we all strive for subconsciously; why else would we brush our teeth, eat healthy food and spend time with our most loved ones?
Ultimately, by understanding what drives us internally and by making sure our goals reflect this inner desire can help lead us towards a fuller and more meaningful life.
How Painful Experiences Can Prevent Us From Achieving True Happiness
Beyond Willpower shares a powerful message – that chasing after everything you want won’t bring you true happiness.
It all starts with our pain/pleasure programming, which implies that children pursue pleasurable things and avoid painful ones.
In other words, they use a three-step strategy: they want something (like ice cream in the example), make a plan to get it, and carry out this plan.
But this same strategy can backfire on adults who are trying to be happy.
Sure, you might come up with a plan to get what you want, execute it and enjoy it for the moment – but it won’t last forever.
If your default response is to chase after any potentially pleasurable experience, you’ll never experience the true happiness that’s waiting inside of you.
In short, if we always want more of anything external–be it money, fame or love—and if we drive ourselves towards these wants no matter how much or how little pleasure or fulfillment they give us in the end – then we will never experience true joy and satisfaction that comes from within ourselves.
The Surprising Role Of Cell Memory In Physical And Mental Health
We all know that the experiences we have have an effect on our physical and mental wellbeing.
But what you might not realize is that our bodies’ cells are actually recording these experiences, and if those experiences are painful, it can negatively affect the health of our cells.
This was the conclusion from a study conducted in 2004 by scientists at Southwestern University Medical Center in Texas.
They found evidence that unpleasant experiences can alter chemical markers within the body’s cells, which, in turn, can cause illnesses such as cancer and depression.
Furthermore, organ recipients often show new personality traits immediately after receiving an organ from a donor.
This phenomenon is known as cellular memory and indicates that our cells remember pleasurable sensations as well as painful ones – even when they are transferred to another body.
Using Energy Medicine To Heal Your Body And Mind
Do you often feel pain or suffering? It might be time to look into healing your energy with Beyond Willpower.
Energy Medicine is a powerful way to overcome physical symptoms and emotional problems by targeting specific parts of the body with positive energy.
Albert Einstein’s research showed us the significance of the energy in our bodies – when it’s positive, we experience health and vitality!
Unfortunately, when we suffer from an energy deficit, or bad energy enters our system, we can find ourselves in pain.
Energy Medicine offers an alternative: by using non-invasive techniques that involve relaxing, saying a prayer and applying circular motions at three strategic points (the heart, forehead and crown) on the body for one to three minutes at each point, you can replenish your body with positive energy that will heal it from any afflictions.
These simple steps will help you eliminate anxiety, depression and persistent headaches!
Better yet, if you apply these steps a couple of times every day for best results – your sickness will be gone before you even know it!
With Beyond Willpower’s Energy Medicine tool at your disposal, there’s no reason not to try and heal your energy now!
How To Tell If You’Re On The Right Path To Achieving Your Success Goal
It’s important to note that while your desire should align with your success goal, they’re not the same thing.
Desire is based on external circumstances whereas a success goal is a more internal state.
For instance, you might want to buy a luxury car, but this may not get you closer to achieving your ultimate goal of living happily and peacefully.
Success goals are solely determined by what’s within your control- you can attain them right now rather than having to wait for some external circumstance to occur.
Therefore, if your goal is to be at peace, it isn’t dependent on something in the future like buying that car or taking that vacation- it relies entirely on an inner state which can be accomplished now.
To reach true success, look beyond the superficial desires of life and focus on goals that are attainable no matter what external circumstances may arise- goals that you have complete control over.
How To Overcome Anxiety And Boost Confidence When Launching A Business
If you’re looking to launch your business, but are feeling overwhelmed with negative thoughts and lack of confidence, then you can fight back by systematically confronting those worries.
Start by writing your fears and worries down on paper and rating them from zero to ten – zero meaning the least worried about and ten the highest level of worry.
Then, list your desires and assess how confident you are in achieving them.
Once you’re done that, apply the Energy Medicine tool to help reduce your worries until they eventually become a thing of the past (rated as zeros on the 10-point scale).
This same tool can also be used to help boost confidence in achieving your desired goals (until at least 7 out of 10 on the scale).
So don’t forget to stick with it – those worries WILL be gone if you persist.
Forty Days To Freedom: A Commitment To Lifelong Love, Peace, And Joy
With Beyond Willpower, you can put your worries in the past and make a habit of confident thinking for good.
To accomplish this, it’s important to stick with the steps outlined in the book and monitor your attitude over a period of 40 days.
This involves rating both your worries and positive beliefs every single day until you reach healthy levels again.
If you find yourself slipping back during this time, don’t worry!
Just use the Energy Medicine tool to reactivate your deprogramming session until your ratings return to normal.
Continue repeating this process for about 40 days so that worries are kept at bay and so that you can fully believe that you’ll reach all of your success goals.
By following these simple steps, you can make sure that negative thoughts don’t come back or positive ones diminish.
After 40 days, or whenever confidence is restored, wake up feeling worry-free but also full of excitement knowing that this same cycle will help keep negative thoughts away forever!
Wrap Up
The final message of Beyond Willpower is clear – Fulfilling external desires won’t bring you long lasting satisfaction, but attaining your ultimate success goal will.
To make sure that you choose the right goal for yourself, author suggests to use a little help from a genie.

This method will help you uncover the goal that’s most important to you.
By doing so,you can focus on pursuing love, peace and happiness and avoid being sidetracked by appearances or false promises of immense wealth.
