I grew up in the Great Lakes region of the United States, in the small city of Sheboygan, Wisconsin on the shore of Lake Michigan. At the time, the population of forty to fifty thousand people was mainly employed as blue collar labor. I was surrounded by working class adults and I often heard them sigh in exasperation, “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” This was usually said as they observed the outstanding success of the super-wealthy and compared it with the relatively impoverished state of the masses.

Impressionable children, who expect the adults in their life to be repositories of experienced-based truth, will have their belief system shaped by a statement such as this. If they adopt it as their own truth, it will guide their reality creation to effectively reinforce it as fact through the experiences they manifest.
Another thing I heard constantly from the authority figures in my life was “it’s just your imagination” or “you’re just imagining things.” Statements like these tend to denigrate and marginalize the power of imagination, relegating it to an inferior state of mind, especially as it relates to what most consider reality to be. Contrary to this assertion, Gavin Nascimento, author at The Free Thought Project and The Mind Unleashed makes the following observation:

Even with clear evidence of the power of imaginative belief, the denigration of imagination is endemic to our thinking. After all, we have the expression, figment of the imagination which is used to define something that appears real in our thoughts as something separate from the actual world of reality. Never mind that countless historical examples could be shown of various figments that became a reality.
Now before we get too angry at the parents and adults who taught us during our formative years for limiting our imaginations, let’s consider that they were only experiencing the results of the beliefs they were taught by their parents and authority figures. In other words, the beliefs they were taught shaped their reality and created experiences which then reinforced the beliefs as truth. This is how what we regard as reality works.

Consider that parents who come from wealth (and have different beliefs about abundance) pass their experience-based beliefs on to their children. They instill in them the confidence that they should expect to be successful and abundantly rewarded for their efforts. The poor, (due to how hard they have to work to make a living) pass the belief on to their children that they can expect life to be hard and money to be scarce. These become self-fulfilling prophecies; if we believe money should be easy to come by, we’ll seek out opportunities where it will be. If we expect hard work will result in only small gains, we’re likely to restrict ourselves from reaching for more and thereby causing this to be the reality we experience.
From the Mentagenesis perspective, if you believe hard work is necessary for money to come to you, money cannot come to you without hard work. If you believe opportunities are everywhere and only need to be acted upon, opportunities will abound.
Take two people, one from a successful business background and one who has experienced only poverty. Strip them both of all they have and drop them in a foreign city far from their home and support systems. Within a few months to a year, the person who had been a successful entrepreneur has identified a need in his community and created a business. Soon this individual has a place to live and is on the road to success again.

The person who knew only poverty struggles to imagine anything but poverty, therefore nothing is ventured, and nothing is gained. When beliefs are limiting, the perception of the person is limited. Opportunities go unrecognized and the status quo remains.
If somehow we can muster the belief that we can climb out of poverty, we find a way to do so. Don’t we all love rags to riches stories? Why? Because it makes us feel good, gives us hope and celebrates the triumph of the human spirit over adverse circumstances. These stories raise our vibration and sow the seeds of belief that we can also overcome the odds.

It’s a bit of a conundrum. We’ve been taught that seeing is believing, but to put the power of Mentagenesis to work for us, we must believe it before we see it.
How then, does one overcome programmed pessimism and break free from the fear of failure? If we can grasp that it’s actually fear that causes failure (through inaction) and that hope, belief and persistent action cause success, we have taken the first step toward renewing our mind and unleashing our power. Dr. Wayne Dyer, international best-selling self-development author and motivational speaker makes the following observation;

“If you believe it will work out, you’ll see opportunities. If you believe it won’t, you will see obstacles.”
Yes, fear is a bully, and just as a bully seeks to tear down our self-esteem and make us subservient, fear tells us that we’re not worthy, or incapable, or that people will laugh at us; all of this causing us to doubt ourselves and fail to take action. Take note of this- doubt plus inaction equals failure while faith plus action equals success.
All that exists began as imagination. Never underestimate the power of creative thought. Historically, we can see that all advancements are built on the accomplishments of those who refused to fear failure and never gave up the quest to realize their dreams!

My latest book proposes alternative views on human history, extraterrestrial involvement, and societal manipulation. We explore ancient civilizations, discovering lost technologies and hidden truths about humanity’s past and future potential. My research suggests that remnants of advanced technologies exist worldwide. These remnants challenge the accepted historical narrative that minimizes our connection to these civilizations.
This book advocates for expanded consciousness and challenges societal norms imposed by a controlling elite. I also include over 250 full color images. I dare say, anyone who reads it with an open mind will have their beliefs about ancient history challenged! Their views on contemporary history will be challenged too. This is not only a book about manipulated history, but also about how our beliefs shape our current reality.
Thank you in advance for supporting the cause of full disclosure! – Daniel
And finally, for Children of all ages, I wrote a book. It teaches in a fun and humorous way. It explains the concepts of being curious, open-minded, and a critical thinker. It explore the variety of ocean creatures.
Finnegan is a fish in the Great Wide Ocean who goes on a journey to see all he can of his watery world. He encounters many colorful characters along the way. Then he has an encounter that causes him to question the things he’s been taught in school. He and his Angelfish friend Gabby begin to explore the idea that there may be more to the world than the wet one they live in.
Many full color illustrations to captivate your youngster’s imagination. Takes approximately 10 minutes for an adult to read. Great for those bedtime stories!
