The South African Constitution of 1996 has enshrined racial and gender equality as a right for all citizens. Every year South Africans celebrate August as Women’s Month.
This month is dedicated to the assessment of progress made towards the achievement of racial and gender equality in society. Sadly, the reality on the ground indicates a significant increase in gender-based violence, which targets women and children.
There is also evidence that black women and children are worst affected by poverty. This demonstrates that national government laws alone are not adequate for the elimination of the negative impacts of centuries of racism and patriarchy on the life experiences of black women.
Black women continue to be subjected to oppression by patriarchy and racism at home and at work. Hence, there is an urgent need for national government to support the development and implementation of dedicated empowerment programmes that focus on entrenching empowering beliefs in the minds of black women and girls.
It is important to affirm women’s ability to improve the quality of their lives and achieve success if they believe that they are destined for greatness.
All human beings irrespective of race or gender are born equal and endowed with unlimited potential to achieve any goal they set for themselves provided they know how to use the power of the subconscious mind to manifest their desired success goals.
Due to the lack of knowledge and awareness of the inherent power of the subconscious mind in shaping one’s destiny, many poor black women remain victims of discrimination because of their gender and race.
These women are likely to resign themselves to being powerless victims of circumstances beyond their control. They blame external factors for their life experience of poverty because they are not aware that they possess a powerful subconscious mind which can manifest a life of abundance provided they maintain positive thoughts and entrench empowering beliefs.
The human subconscious mind is influenced by one’s dominant thoughts and beliefs. Dominant positive thoughts coupled with empowering beliefs always manifest matching positive life experiences.
Therefore, everyone is a co-creator of one’s reality because the universe always manifests life experiences that match one’s dominant thoughts and beliefs. If one’s dominant thoughts always focus on worrying about lack of money, the universe responds by manifesting evidence of an ongoing struggle with lack of money.
It is possible for anyone to manifest a life abundance by entrenching empowering beliefs in an abundant universe that does not discriminate against anyone based on gender or race. It only discriminates against people based on their negative mindset, which is characterised by the dominance of negative thoughts, limiting beliefs and negative emotional state.
People who maintain a dominant negative emotional state emit negative energy which attracts matching negative life experiences. On the other hand, people who maintain a dominant positive emotional state always emit positive energy, which attracts the manifestation of the desired positive life experiences.
Everyone is born equal and endowed with an unlimited potential to achieve greatness provided one understands how to use the power of one’s subconscious mind to manifest one desires. Unfortunately, the power of the subconscious mind in shaping one’s destiny is not included in the basic education curriculum.
Hence many people go through life without the knowledge that they are born with a subconscious mind which is more powerful than any man-made computer. The subconscious mind has unlimited potential to solve complex problems provided one can programme it with the specific information on what one wants to manifest from the universe.
The general population has been programmed to believe that only a few smart or lucky people can achieve significant personal and professional success during their lifetime while the rest of the population resign themselves to a mediocre lifestyle for the rest of their lives.
All men and women are born equal and endowed with a powerful subconscious mind that has an unlimited potential to manifest anything they desire. The subconscious mind is influenced by one’s thoughts, beliefs, and one’s dominant emotional state.
Anyone who wants to achieve a successful life must only allow positive thoughts to dominate in one’s mind because one creates one’s reality based on one’s dominant thoughts and beliefs. The subconscious mind accepts one’s dominant thoughts as instruction of what one wants to manifest in one’s life experience and it proceeds to attract matching life experience.
Hence, one’s dominant negative thoughts always attract negative life experiences and dominant positive thoughts always attract positive life experiences. This demonstrates that human beings have power to determine the quality of their lives by only allowing positive thoughts and empowering beliefs to dominate in their minds.
However, due to the lack of knowledge and awareness of the power of one’s thoughts and beliefs in creating one’s reality, many people struggle to achieve the success they desire.
The adoption of positive thoughts, entrenchment of empowering beliefs and maintenance of a dominant positive emotional state can enable anyone to take full control of the power of one’s subconscious mind to manifest one’s desired positive life experiences.
This shows that human-beings have inherent power to determine the quality of their lives by allowing positive thoughts and empowering beliefs to dominate in their subconscious mind coupled with the maintenance of a positive emotional state. Dominance of negative emotions in one’s emotional state always block one from manifesting positive life experiences.
Therefore anyone, black or white, who wants to enjoy a life of abundance can focus the mind on positive thoughts, entrench empowering beliefs, let go of any negative emotions and only allow a positive emotional state to dominate in one’s life experience.
