You can think of your physical body as a device for controlling energy: it can generate,
store, and expend energy. If you know how to generate, store, and expend energy in an efficient
way, then you can create any amount of wealth. Attention to the ego consumes the
greatest amount of energy. When your internal reference point is the ego, when you seek
power and control over other people or seek approval from others, you spend energy in a
wasteful way.
When that energy is freed up, it can be rechanneled and used to create anything that you
want. When your internal reference point is your spirit, when you are immune to criticism and
unfearful of any challenge, you can harness the power of love, and use energy creatively for the
experience of affluence and evolution.
In The Art of Dreaming, Don Juan tells Carlos Castaneda, . . . most of our energy goes
into upholding our importance. ... If we were capable of losing some of that importance, two
extraordinary things would happen to us: One, we would free our energy from trying to maintain
the illusory idea of our grandeur; and two, we would provide ourselves with enough energy
to catch a glimpse or the actual grandeur of the universe.
There are three components to the Law of Least Effort three things you can do to put
this principle of do less and accomplish more into action. The first component is acceptance.
Acceptance simply means that you make a commitment: Today I will accept people, situations,
circumstances, and events as they occur. This means I will know that this moment is as
it should be, because the whole universe is as it should be. This moment the one youre
experiencing right now is the culmination of all the moments you have experienced in the
past. This moment is as it is because the entire universe is as it is.
When you struggle against this moment, youre actually struggling against the entire universe.
Instead, you can make the decision that today you will not struggle against the whole
universe by struggling against this moment. 1 his means that your acceptance of this moment is
total and complete. You accept things as they are, not as you wish they were in this moment.
This is important to understand. You can wish for things in the future to be different, but in this
moment you have to accept things as they are.- Deepak Chopra
