The Power of Vibration

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

Have you ever operated the radio in your life? Anyone born in the new millennium would find a radio quite a unique device, probably because it went out of use by the dawn of the new century. However, those of us who have been around for more than two decades know the intricacies of just about everything that blares music, from a radio, MP3 player, right down to CDs, DVDs, and iPods.

A radio, specifically, works with waves; each wave has a different frequency, also called a vibration. You can pick up a specific signal when you tune a radio receiver to a particular frequency. The Federal Communications Commission assigns a particular frequency to each radio station. You must tune into the said frequency to listen to your favorite channel. This frequency mechanism is not confined to radio stations alone.

Everything in the universe vibrates at a particular frequency. Our thoughts, emotions, actions, and even the words we speak transmit a specific vibration into the universe. Our vibrations play a vital role in shaping our lives. We know the idea of vibrations as the Law of Vibration. Like a radio receiver, we pick up signals according to the frequency we tune in. If we want to bring the desired change in our lives, we must shift our thoughts and actions in the correct direction to achieve our goals.

One of the best ways of changing your vibration frequency is to eliminate negative or toxic people from your life. Your family and friends influence your frequency to a great extent. People who are always upset and whining about their life difficulties have a low vibration. On the contrary, people who are happy have a much higher frequency.

Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys said that their hit song, "Good Vibrations," was inspired by his mother:

"[She] used to tell me about vibrations. I didn't really understand too much of what it meant when I was just a boy. It scared me, the word 'vibrations.' She told me about dogs that would bark at some people and then not bark at others, that a dog would pick up vibrations from these people that you can't see but can feel."?

Try to include your role models in your life. We all have an ideal example of someone that we want to become. If we are not there yet, someone we know has made it to that ideal point. If we have such a person in our lives, we can resonate with their frequency because we want to become like them. If you want to become successful, spend time with people who are successful in their lives.

If you can’t find such people in your area, you can choose to read books about them or watch videos of successful businessmen and entrepreneurs. You will learn to tune into their frequency. You will begin applying the principles they follow in your own life. If you want to become healthy, get into the frequency of people who are fitness buffs. Your life will gradually steer you in your desired direction. Just like Newton’s third law of physics states,

“Every action has an equal and opposite reaction,”

all the laws of the universe hold equal importance. When we turn a blind eye to the universe's natural laws, we often experience adversities, resistance, misfortune, pain, and lack of direction. Whether we believe it or not, universal laws impact our everyday lives to a great degree. We often don’t understand the reason behind our hardships, but understanding these laws is vital to overcoming our lives' miseries.

You Are What You Believe

“Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution exists paves the way to the solution.” —David J. Schwartz

When people criticize us for our inability, our feelings get hurt. We may try to figure out the reason behind their perspective, but we rarely realize that we are likely the biggest critics of ourselves. When we don’t believe in our own abilities and skills, our negative perception of ourselves can become so strong that we never realize our true potential. People with this type of thinking often say the following lines to themselves: “I can’t do it.” “It seems impossible.” “People won’t like my idea.”

Instead, say outload the following lines to yourself: “I can do it!” “It’s possible!” “People will like my idea!” Do you feel the difference in the vibration that each of these sentences carries when you compare them with their negatives? You can live the same difference in your own life once you begin believing and saying the right things to yourself.

Many people have great ideas about making the world better, but most kill them before even trying it out. They become so consistent with the negative thoughts that it becomes a trait of their personality. They accept their mediocre lifestyle because they don’t believe that they can change anything, much less the world with their idea. When life brings trials and tribulations, most give up because they think that it is their destiny. But if everything was under the control of luck and fortune, why would God have blessed us with intellect and free will?

We don’t realize that our beliefs today determine the rest of our lives. What we believe today shapes up what we will become tomorrow. Michael Jordan once said,

“You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.”

Thomas Edison, the founder of General Electric and thousands of patented discoveries, didn’t come up with his ideas overnight. It took him years of struggle and failures in many ways to reach success. Self-belief and consistency played a big role in his success. Where did he get this belief?

It is well known that one of his teachers once told him that he was too addled (stupid) to learn anything. So, his school didn’t give him this belief. Perhaps he already had it, and even as a child, he was more focused on his ideas than his teacher's. This is the power of beliefs.

Certainly, his mother played a role.

“My mother was the making of me. She was so true, so sure of me, and I felt I had someone to live for, someone I must not disappoint.”

He was a scientist, and though not an atheist, he did not believe in a “personal god,” so he had to develop the ability to believe and create himself. Imagine how many people out there are as smart as Edison but give up trying because they don’t believe in their own potential. After experimenting for years, Edison finally invented the light bulb.

No one knows the teacher who had demoralized him, but everyone knows Thomas Edison and his company that still exists today as General Electric. Edison once said, “I have not failed 10,000 times. I’ve successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work.”
