I've experienced resistance to a new positive thought. By resistance I mean it seems out of place and has not been incorporated at the being level yet. The key is to keep rendering the thought in your mind and in the space in front of you. As long as you are rendering it, the impact should be the same. Let's get more concrete. The thought could be anything, from a house to a person, to a place. Any noun will do. The thought needs time and that's all. The more you render it, the more power it gets. And do not think that you are the source of the thought. Thoughts are wild animals of the mind. If you walk into a forest, do you think you created the bears, skunks and squirrels there? They are in space and they come to you. How much energy we give them is our choice. Low energy ones leave and high energy ones stay and grow. Keep the good ones, or they will be another person's positive ones. They'll just go somewhere else. Thinking is all that matters. Even if no emotion is in the positive one at first, just keep thinking of it. The reason there is little emotion is because it is new and not as focused as the ones already there. Once you keep thinking of it, the energy from your present ones will transfer to the new one and the energy will switch. The emotion will go from negative to positive. Energy is neutral. There is no good, or evil energy. There is interpretation. Go with ones you interpret as positive.
Why you shouldn't reinterpret what you already have
This idea is that we should never really change anything in our minds, but just deal with what is there. If you keep getting punched in the face perhaps you could train your mind to feel less pain and then the punches won't hurt after awhile. This might work, or you could just leave the area where the person is who keeps hitting you and go somewhere new. If you reinterpret everything as positive, that can work, but will you keep thinking of it? If someone in an abusive relationship sees the abuser in a positive way, then wouldn't they make the positive choice for the other person and leave them? This is based in the idea that we need to suffer to understand good. You need to be happy with what you have, not what you can create. This thought can work, but what you have is always a decision you make right now. There is no past except in thought. Here's a question, if it was you doing the punching should you reinterpret it as positive? Are you not hurting the other person when you hit them?
So if you reinterpret hitting another person in the face as positive, then you go for it. Have fun creating that. Anyways, consider the fact that you're creating the reality of "I need negative things to reinterpret to positive" so that I can grow from that. In the initial stage of setting up the experience, you are asking for negativity. This is a very popular idea in our culture. The people who like the idea of a Phoenix rising out of the ashes would do something like that. But, if they knew they set the fire in the first place, maybe it would not be as popular. This fact only exists in the mind. If someone burns down something and another person overcomes it, that isn't the same thing since there are many consciousness's overlapping. What I am saying is applicable to your own mind only. The world outside of you is not in your control since it doesn't exist. But, if that is the case then the other person I am hitting doesn't exist so I can punch away. The issue with that is the use of "other" when describing another avatar in the dream. They are part of the one consciousness as you are. Every body, tree, rock is part of consciousness. They only differ in capacity and how much consciousness they can hold. There are many free wills with the same consciousness, just like there are many branches with the same tree, many fingers on the same hand, many waves in the same water. You are punching another part of you and when you say you are reinterpreting a negative thing as positive, then you are putting that negative thing out there and it could hurt another part of you. Get rid of anything that starts as "I need to reinterpret this." That means you created something negative originally and do not want to take responsibility for it. You are turning a negative intent to a positive one. Darth Vader did that. In the end, positive is positive and Vader is better off and grew a lot from the negativity. But, he didn't have to. Luke went the positive path the whole time and they both ended up at the same place. Choose your road. Notice when Vader turned positive he ditched the helmet. The helmet didn't do anything to evolve, so creating base negativity to learn from is just a dumb way to go about it.
