THE LAW OF TRUST
by Dr. John F. Demartini

Today I would love to share with you another law of inspiration called the Law of Trust. This isn't something you do on an offshore investment, necessarily. This is about you in relationship to the whole universe.

Think! Imagine if you were to perceive and create in your mind the idea that "The world sucks!" "The world doesn't work!" "People are crazy today!" "Look at what this world is coming to!" Imagine a perception that there is chaos, traumas, problems, and we are all victims of circumstance. There is nothing you can do about all these issues, and you feel helpless and hopeless. Do you think that is going to get you where you would love to be in life? Not in my experience! Some people say, "Well, we don't want a 'Pollyanna' experience, where we think everything is fine, everything's dandy, and we'll just get in this Pollyanna mindset where we don't want to look at the problems and issues of life!"

However, I believe there is wisdom in trusting the universe. This is an intuitive process. Imagine that you were to go through life, and no matter what happened, positive or negative, you were capable of extracting service, benefit, and a value from it. In other words, even if there were something terrific or terrible, you could extract a benefit. I believe that it is wise to perceive the universe as doing whatever it can to assist you in getting whatever you truly would love in life. When you make that leap of intuition, you begin to perceive the events around you differently.

Instead of looking at a situation and saying "Yuck!" and blaming and giving excuses, you say, "I am accountable for my reality. I have the ability to change my perception." By the way, William James said one hundred years ago, "The greatest discovery of our generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their perceptions of mind." Why not change your perception so that no matter what happens in your life, you receive an opportunity to grow. You receive positive and negative feedback to inspire you to be greater. The universe is doing an assisting process. It is making you great!

"Let us create in our minds the idea that the universe is someone worthy of trust." Let us personify it, and imagine it being trustworthy. It is doing whatever it can to assist you. When you filter life through trust, amazing things happen! Instead of seeing an ordinary event as a mistake, you say, "No! That is an opportunity. That is a gift! You extract from the same event, with new perceptions-opportunities, resources, ideas, and friends.

I will give you an example. I was walking down the aisle of an airplane one time, and I bumped into somebody. I could have said, "Oh! Excuse me." But I didn't. I turned around and said, "Oh! Hi! I'm Dr. Demartini. I must have been meant to bump into you today. You are someone who is very attractive, and I have obviously been attracted to you!" I turned my whole perception around, and started a conversation. I sat down with them, and moved my seat around just to meet with them, and I got a business opportunity! Because I saw that there are no mistakes, there is nothing but a universe trying to assist me, and I trusted it.

The Law of Trust is basically to love life, and to trust that no matter what happens, it is serving you. It makes a difference in my perspective. It makes my life different. It can make yours different, too
