Читать книгу What If..? - Martina Faulkner - Страница 3

What if you were to read a powerful and yet sweet book that could transform your entire approach to life? Many great people of the past understood the principles that Martina Faulkner speaks of in this concise gem of a book about manifesting through the question “What if..?”. Great inventors like Thomas Edison, Washington Carver, the Wright brothers, Leonardo Da Vinci, Tesla, Charles Babbage, Archimedes, Alexander Bell, Steve Jobs, and a host of others knew the power of asking open questions and made liberal use of the method. And thereby did many powerful explorers, emperors, teachers, religious leaders, and generals realize great dreams that changed history. They each had powerful curiosity and wanted to know what was possible and how to do something never accomplished before. And they were amazingly successful, so successful, in fact, that their discoveries and exploits changed the entire world in a single generation. It was not that these individuals were somehow smarter and or more realized than everyone else. They were using the same basic skills that everyone uses to live their lives. They had the ability to think, feel, and act just like you do. The difference was that they had an unwavering focus, were extremely curious, were powerfully passionate to know, and were all highly persistent.

However, not all of these now-famous individuals were able to find happiness through their accomplishments. Some were driven by ego, some by religious fervor, some by the desire to serve. To the degree that they were driven by altruistic motives, they were more likely to find fulfillment, satisfaction, and happiness, and to the degree that they were driven by ego to realize personal gain over others, they often met with catastrophic or disappointing ends — think of Alexander the Great, Hitler, Napoleon, and Rasputin, to name just a few.

These historical figures knew enough to manifest what they wanted, or thought they wanted, for better or worse. They may have intuitively known the right method, happened upon it by chance, or learned the principles from their great teachers. This information has always been available to those dedicated to finding out. You need not stumble through trial and error to painstakingly discover what works.

Martina has done the preliminary research for you, gathered it up, and made it available in an organized, clear, and focused, step-by-step process, to help you manifest your dreams effectively and quickly. The best part is that she cuts out all the gobbledygook that accompanies most other books on the subject of manifesting and focuses on the essentials. She skips the long explanations and gets down to the nitty-gritty through exercises and questioning — processes that work exceptionally well. And best of all, she personalizes the process with examples from her own experience, both positive and negative.

Martina has clearly done her own required emotional homework and this qualifies her to write this book from an authoritative, mature, and compassionate perspective. As an added bonus, she is a trained and qualified counselor, healer, and teacher.

And oh yes, there is one more thing. Martina is not afraid to say it like it is. She is not afraid to tell the truth, even if it means you might be disappointed or it might contradict something you hope is true or not true. This is always the sign of someone you can trust, someone who is clear and loving enough to skip the ingratiation and whitewash and instead, educate you. Enjoy.
