Attributes Of a Conspiracy Theorist

Several years ago, when I was in the middle of questioning the medical establishment here in the United States, I fell into a deep, deep rabbit hole. At the time, all I wanted was better answers for my daughter. What I ended up with has continued to surprise and amaze me. I am still in that rabbit hole, much further and deeper in than I ever would have imagined, but I wouldn't change it if I had the chance. The rabbit hole transforms a person into what is better known as a conspiracy theorist.

There are several key attributes of a conspiracy theorist. The first (and most important) is the ability to ask lots and lots of questions!!! Conspiracy theorists have an incessant curiosity about how things work and questions are all part of the information gathering process. The more questions you ask, the more information becomes available to you. People who ask questions know they don't have all the answers. When you don't have all the answers, you are much more open to new possibilities.

A second key attribute of a conspiracy theorist is the capacity to think and synthesize the information their questions uncover. A conspiracy theorist will look at the data and attempt to make sense of it. Quite often, status quo information will not make sense in combination with the new information so new questions form! Needless to say the first two attributes go hand-in-hand.

A third attribute conspiracy theorists have is courage. It takes an extremely strong person to be willing to stand up to the establishment and point out potential flaws in the accepted information. On many occasions you find yourself standing alone. Needless to say, this is not a comfortable place to be. Many people find this struggle not worth it and decide to leave the questions well enough alone and go back to sleep.

A final attribute of a conspiracy theorist is a subtle spirituality that typically transcends traditional religion. Deep down, conspiracy theorists understand there is a subtle connection that binds us all into a perfect whole. It is this inner connection to all things divine that begins this questioning process in the first place. The bond is strong enough that it whispers to the person there is much more information to be found.

There are many people out there who believe conspiracy theorists are just a bunch of crackpots who will believe anything, no matter how silly--that their "theories" are based on fiction and untested principles. The thing is, all big shifts of thought and consciousness come about because people are able to question, think for themselves and stand up for ideas that are not popular. Look at people like Einstein and Martin Luther King.

Conspiracy theorists change the world. Do you have what it takes?

Re-Thinking What Is Possible!!!

What if...your understandings of how society works were wrong? What if...everything you have ever been taught about human behavior was wrong? What if...we could step outside those boxes and create a new reality? What would that look like? What are the possibilities?

I know I do not like the world the way it is at present. Too much hunger. Too much disease. Too much poverty. Too much pollution. Too much violence. Too much war. Too much agony and pain overall. For someone with highly developed skills of empathy, this much suffering can be very difficult to take.

We are taught it is a dog-eat-dog world. Everyone must fight for what they want. Survival of the fittest is the way things are. Our world's resources are limited. There is not enough to go around.

What if...I told you there is a solution for every problem? Would you believe me and try to find the solutions, or would you scoff and turn away?

My heart tells me there are always solutions!!! My heart tells me to ask new questions that will help me find new answers and increase my understanding!!! My heart tells me there are ways for everyone to not only have enough but to also live abundantly!!!

Let me give you a concrete example. We are told the world cannot possibly feed all of its seven billion people--that there is not enough land to grow enough food to alleviate the hunger. I don't buy it!!! I look around and see creative solutions to food problems everywhere. An initiative in Boston allows food to be grown on vacant lots, providing healthy food, business opportunities and agriculture training to local residents. Los Angeles residents were able to overcome city gardening ordinances to be able to grow food on small but usable strips of land. In Milwaukee, Wisconsin, over a million pounds of food is grown year round on three acres of land using a vertical aquaponics design that even incorporates protein in the form of fish! Then there is the organic farmer in California who ended up with a bumper crop of veggies during one of the most severe droughts on record!!! These are just a few examples, but they all say one thing to me: there are solutions to every problem!!!

Don't like the world you live in either? Join me in changing it!!! Allow yourself to rethink what is possible. Begin asking the questions that will open your mind and heart up to new understandings!!!

Even more important: get into your own heart and connect to the love within it!!! By connecting to heart, you can begin connecting to the infinite wisdom of the universe, expanding your knowledge base and understandings exponentially!!!

It is time to re-think what is possible so we can create a world we all want to live in!!!
