UMS2 Ideas

[Shannon]

There is a product in the market. This product says that if I follow the instructions will work and if not will not be my fault. But when the product doesn't work, I say that it didn't work for me and now suddenly it's my fault even if I followed the instruction. What should I do?

There is no fault.  There is only cooperation or lack thereof.  If you cooperate and it works, the program is not responsible, you are.  If you do not cooperate and it does not work, the program is not responsible, you are.  To say otherwise is to say that if I write you a shopping list and you refuse to go to the store and buy groceries, it is the fault of the shopping list that you have no groceries.  

Now I understand that the part of you not cooperating is not easily figured out and persuaded and gotten to cooperate, and that you may be frustrated by it just as I am.  I'm not laying blame, but I am pointing out that you are responsible for your own choices and the resulting action or inaction, even if it is at a subconscious level.  I am also working to figure out how to influence those resistant parts to get them to cooperate, and I do that because I know that the vast majority of people who have that experience will not find any other way to achieve the necessary change to accomplish the desired goal.  

But it is not helpful, to you or me, for you to blame me or the program.  Think about this.  Imagine that your resistant subconscious is a child.  Let's say it represents you as you were at 4 years old.  Let's say that you run UMS and your inner child sees the goal of becoming wealthy, and responds to it by concluding that becoming wealthy would take you away from your parents because they were poor, and that would mean you were all alone and unable to take care of yourself and you would die.  (This is the kind of "logic" the subconscious actually uses.)

Now consciously, we can reasonably work out that "becoming wealthy" does not equate to "losing your parents", and even if it did, it would not result in you being unable to take care of yourself, or dying.  On the contrary, the reality is, if you were wealthy, you could spend as much time with your parents as you like, help them live longer, better lives, taking much better care of yourself, and being much less likely to die.  So the fear is completely contrary to reality, and it actually helps result in what it is trying to avoid by depriving you of that wealth.  It is completely contrary to reality because it is based on an imagined outcome, and that imagined outcome can be whatever.  Because it is scary, it is what gets focused on, and it thereby dominates.

Now if you recall, it is common for kids to try to avoid being taken to task by blaming someone or something other than themselves.  This is a big part of what separates adults from children, and the conscious from the subconscious.  Adults (and mature consciousnesses) understand and accept the responsibility that is really theirs.  Children do not, and sometimes cannot comprehend enough to do so.  

This inner child that is afraid and resisting cooperation with the program is also trying to avoid being taken to task for what it is doing.  It doesn't want to be blamed, or have to deal with it's fears, it just wants to avoid doing what leads to whatever imaginary fear it created.  So it tries to convince the conscious mind that "the subliminal didn't work" or that the program is at fault, or in some cases, maybe even blame me for something.  And in many cases, people fall for it and say, "The program could have done what it's designed to do, but it failed."  

Once again, the program is a list of instructions.  It cannot "execute those instructions" because it is an inanimate object.  The shopping list does not drive to the store and do the grocery shopping, pay for the food and then drive home and put it all away for you.  You have to do that.  And if you don't, it's no fault of the shopping list, and only a child would try to blame the shopping list for their own failure to act on that shopping list.

So the key I'm trying to explain here is that by blaming the program, you are giving that truculent child a free pass to keep resisting, because it knows it can get away with resisting, and nobody will come after it and try to get it to change.  While there are not a lot of options we know about right now for getting it to change, there are some, and there is some effort that can be made to accomplish that on your own, until - and if - I figure out how to get that resistant child to stop resisting.  

That's why I always try to correct people when they try to blame the program, or me, for the failure.  When you use the program, and you achieve the results, it is easy to do the same thing in reverse and assign action to the program.  Praise the program.  But really, just as before, the shopping list doesn't get credit for the shelves full of groceries when you take that shopping list, drive to the store, gather and pay for the groceries, and then drive home and put them away.  YOU did it, whether or not it was to resist or cooperate.

My job is to figure out how to get you to cooperate, and I haven't stopped working on that.  But you do yourself a serious disfavor when you take on the mindset of "The program did/didn't do it." because that leads to you not taking responsibility for your part in the process, which only makes it easier to try to weasel out of accomplishing the goal, and failing.

Consider that in 1800 it was common for a girl to lose her virginity in the United States between age 10 and 15, because she was expected to marry and start a family between those ages.  Now, anyone mentions a girl losing her virginity before 16 and it's off with their heads.  Those families that started that young survived because nobody was letting them off the hook "because they're just kids" as we do in the United States today.  It was "fulfill your potential for responsibility, or don't eat."  Boys 4 years old were helping Dad by doing chores around the farm, waking up before dawn and not going to bed until after dark.  Girls 4 years old were expected to help momma cook and clean and sew.  We expected of these kids their full potential to take responsibility, because it was required to survive.  Now that we have it so easy, "kid" extends to 18 and frequently older, because nobody expects anything of them in the way of responsibility.  "That's just the way it is."  But the fact is, a lot of 4-5-6 year olds from a hundred or two hundred years ago were more responsible than a lot of 18-19-20 year olds are today.  And the only difference is that we don't expect anything else of them.  

You cannot achieve your potentials and overcome your limitations by being held back from fear, and you cannot overcome your fear by refusing to hold yourself accountable for the choices, actions and results you get when you allow fear to dictate what you do and do not do.

I explain all this because these days, nobody wants to take personal responsibility anymore, and doing so would help a lot of people get the results they want from these programs a lot better and faster.

Interestingly, I have had to explain all this multiple times before.  Hopefully this time it makes sense.  Also interestingly, there has been scripting in my subs for taking the required responsibility to achieve the best results for a very long time.  As you can see, a sufficiently young inner child resisting will not cooperate with that either.
