Hello "chuckiecow"
You are asking the same questions I was, when I had started on the journey of living life consciously and by the principles of LOU. I too had asked why negative prevails over positive. And it was here, at this forum, that someone gave me an answer that resonated with me STRONGLY. Get it? No? I will explain.
It is not just about thinking positive consistently. Nor is it about cancelling negative thoughts (although you can do that, and I have personally seen results by feeling STRONG relief immediately. Get it now? No? I will explain further.
Whatever FEELING you resonate STRONGLY gets your order to the universe filled faster! So you can think a million positive thoughts and one negative though that is so strong that—that ONE NEGATIVE THOUGHT gets delivered to you in record time!
I have found that this theory works for me. And I must once again thank the person who answered the very question for me only a couple of months back! Your answer totally answered it for me!
