Resonance
LXIV — Resonant Wealth – Positive Relationships and Mental Discipline
In contrary to toxic relationships, whether personal, or occupational, or recreational, often there is a need to build positive relationships, seek and find out relationships which promote and enhance every chance of your succeeding in your desire. Often-times, we can only go so far, and our wherewithal and current circumstance are not enough to carry us on to the next stage. It is then we need to find facilitators who can provide the necessary means for us to further our journey. These means may be a loan, it may be availing yourself of a colleague or friend's experience; the means can be anything, so long as the one helping you is not compromised by your actions and everything is done with all honesty and integrity. For there is nothing so returnable as a bad action. All bad actions will, eventually return to their creator and give back to them the same.
Another, and just as powerful reason why we should constantly endeavour to banish from the mind negative thoughts, beliefs and attitudes is that negative minds repel the positive minds, and if you want to attract positive results to your vibrational field, then you insist or even order your mind to possess and be filled with only positive energy.
We all possess full power over our thoughts if we believe we have the power to do so. We can, if we practise hard enough, take possession of our mind and its faculties on a full, daily basis. But we have to be careful to avoid any unwanted negative energies that enter our field of life. Even the smallest pocket of energy can alter the fractured gates of a weak mind. Take the situation of being sat on a bus, or on a tube-train, or in a queue, and you see and hear a person complaining bitterly about their life and the misfortunes affecting it. They grimace, they sigh, they moan, and their whole posture compliments entirely the complainant's state of mind. The weak mind of the viewer will take in all those pulses of negative energy and internalise them, so that there will be achieved, albeit the briefest of seconds, an altered state of mind resting in the negative. Most of the time we don't notice this happening. We go through our daily lives being battered by these forms of negative attack, and we don't even realise that they are happening. It takes a moment of consciousness to realise they are happening, and some damned hard work and effort and practise to prevent the shift from positive to negative in our minds. It is easy to avoid a boisterous and rowdy crowd if we know they are there, and we have the ability to leave the madding crowd, but often-times, it's the little things we are unconscious of which can attack in their droves. It is these, too, we must learn to resist.

About Karl Swainston
Karl Swainston is a writer and storyteller whose work is forged from a life lived across the North of England and far beyond. Growing up on a Leeds council estate in the 1960s, Karl's journey was anything but linear. By the age of thirty, he had already lived a dozen lives: from the rigors of grammar school to a degree in Latin, a stint as a fishmonger, a period of discovery living in Marseille, and a return to the hustle of London. Whether working as a postman, a builder, or competing as a county-level chess player, he was, above all, an avid reader—constantly documenting the world around him. This restless spirit continued into his professional life. Karl later taught in Bradford, where he ran a specialist unit for 244 of the most excluded students from across the region—young people whom even the local Pupil Referral Units could not accommodate. Working alongside his old friend Malcolm, Karl spent his days navigating the volatility of Bradford's most aggressive and dysfunctional teenagers. Throughout his life, Karl has been an avid runner and has always shared his home with a rotating cast of beloved dogs and cats—companions who have been constant witnesses to his work. As a writer, Karl's range is as expansive as his history. He works across a wide breadth of genres, including fiction and short stories, autobiography and memoir, biography, non-fiction, and metaphysical writing, as well as providing sharp commentary, opinion, analysis, and essays. Whether writing about his years managing the Harrogate Arms or offering insights from his current adopted home in South East India, where he lives in a simple village with his dog, Bambi, Karl's voice reflects the full, untidy, and deeply human breadth of life. He continues to draw on the rich, decades-long tapestry of his experiences to tell stories that matter, proving that no matter where you live, the human story remains the same.
