The Genius Within

Consider this for a moment. What could you do or achieve if you are able to listen to and understand your own still small voice – the genius within? Here’s a clue. People the world over who have been considered geniuses have known the immense power of trusting and listening to their own inner voices or intuition and creative imaginations. The thing is, they haven't possessed any greater special powers than the rest of us. They have simply encouraged and actively used their intuitive powers.

"The only real valuable thing is intuition." -Albert Einstein.

Think about it. You know how it is when you develop a sixth sense or hunch about something, when something just niggles at you – it feels right or its just all wrong, and you feel you have to follow that hunch because it keeps pinging you. Has that ever happened to you? To some people, it may seem strange or eccentric but many others rely on it for their success, safety, or satisfaction in life, sometimes without even realising that’s what they are doing. Are they crazy?

They say women do it better. I tend to think its because we've needed a different kind of ‘strength’ to keep us and their families growing and thriving and safe. Perhaps men are too busy in their external worlds or perhaps we’ve been mind washed into thinking that this is so. But really, aren’t we all much too busy these days with not enough time to listen to the still small voice?

It all comes down to this. When your antennae are tuned in to picking up the right vibrations, your own genius power is released to start working for you. Have you ever followed where you intuition leads you? Acted despite what ‘reason’ and’ logic’ told you was the thing to do? Now, I’m not saying we should let reason fly out the door, just that when you are following your intuition you are often heeding things for which you have no logical explanation but rather having faith in your own inner prompting. Make no mistake, highly creative people allow this to inspire their creativity, but pretty much all of us have it and use it to some degree.

How, I hear you ask, can those of us less trusting of our intuition get a better grip of it? Quite simply, developing our internal geniuses is really best done when we can quieten our minds from the busyness of our thoughts, when we can relax and become receptive. But being busy doesn’t necessarily stop it either. It’s just that you need to really listen to yourself and how are you going to do it if you don’t turn down the volume on extraneous noises?

Are there other things we can do then to develop our intuitions? Here are some things as recommended by Catherine Ponder in The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity:

Your intuitive power is a spiritual part of you that wants to lead to your greater good. Have faith and confidence in it. Develop trust. “All that you see in the world about you came forth because of someone’s hunch or feeling that it could be done. You can use your ideas and inner feelings to create a more wonderful world.”

Let yourself accept as you go about your daily life that there is some Higher Intelligence acting in you and for you that wants to help and guide you. If you develop this attitude of mind, you will find you are attracting better experiences to you that allows you to accomplish what you want to. You can do this by affirming in your mind daily.

“Divine Intuition is now showing me the way, producing easily and quickly the perfect outcome.”

As you reprogramme your mind, you’re more likely to find that you get more insightful about the things you are interested in or thinking about. You open yourself to discovering hidden secrets and gems that come up from inside yourself.

Be prepared to be pleasantly amazed when you start to follow your little hunches and begin to see a happy and successful outcome. It is your desire for something good to happen that will manifest for you.
“Desire is God tapping at the door of your mind, trying to give you greater good.”

If you're unsure about heeding that inner prompting, just keep asking your mind for direction and you may find that assurance comes simply by asking for it.

“Just what is the perfect truth of this situation? Make it clear to me now so that I cannot possibly mistake it.”

Have you ever found like I have that answers reveal themselves after a period of rest and relaxation – so after a nap or on waking in the morning, the answer just appears in your mind? It was there all along and you just needed that space, that break, to get some clarity on the situation. It’s amazing when that happens, isn't it?

Be prepared for the fact that solutions will come in ways we hadn’t originally thought. Quite simply, the problem or situation has been reconfigured in our minds and we can gain different perspectives on it. We can now choose to accept and act on only the good that will come from the situation.
