Hi,

Hi Jeanne! Thank you so much – I was feeling sad (I have been checking the thread like every 30 seconds! Talk about nutso!).

I did look at ELS website, they seem to have limited selection. I will download (when I get home later today) their free MP3 to hear the quality of the speaker’s voice. I cannot stand Earl Nightingale’s (Nightingale/Conan) voice although I do like a lot of tapes they promote/distribute. Hopefully Bob Griswold will have a good voice that I can listen to - for hours.

You may be talking about their Positive Thinking and Happiness series. I will check these out. Thank you for the suggestion.

QUESTION however – I may have asked this before because I just don’t get it. If the Universe is supposed to be dumb and processes all requests as received then why does it process negative thoughts faster than the positive?

For the past 7 months (since Dec 2006) I have been practicing positive thoughts and the art of allowing more so than not – yet, the negative … boom! appear … just like that! But it takes forever for the good and the positive to materialize. So the universe is not dumb at all is it? Sounds like it has a larger supply of the negative to dish out than the positive! Yes, I know – you will say this is negative thinking but the question has been on my mind for a while and keeps popping every few days.

Another Question: What do you mean when you say your “attitude” has improved? Do you mean your thoughts or general behavior?

Does anyone know where I can find a "finishing school" type of course on video? I think that type of a program would help me a lot too.

Thank you for anticipated response!

The one I am using is "Positive Thinking Made Easy" and it's in the "Love Tapes" section. I've ordered the CD version, which I hope will be the same as the tape I have.

Attitude improvement: Hard to describe it, but I find myself more cheerful and yes, pretty happy most of the time since starting to use this tape.

As for which type of energy the Universe responds to most--honestly, I think it's equal, but maybe with an edge for the positive, rather than the negative. I think we tend to notice the negative more than the positive, for one thing. Even the newsies know that, hence the huge number of alarming headlines. You don't see many headlines saying, "All Is Peaceful In ____" (fill in the country).

I wonder if you might see your blessings more vividly if you actually counted them, maybe in a notebook?

Let me know if you like the voice. I do, but I know taste can vary.

Jeanne
