At one point in my life, I served for 15 years as a professional psychic and parapsychology consultant. I worked with individuals, families, corporations, law enforcement agencies, scientists, medical doctors, veterinarians, and animal trainers.

     Many of my clients came to me, hoping to get a glimpse into their future. In the early days of my career, I believed that the future was laid out in front of us, on a single road or track. This all changed one day as I was conducting a session with a new client. I was looking ahead on the track that the women was on, and relayed to her what I saw. The woman became quite upset, and said with a great deal of conviction, “No, I will never allow that to happen.” Immediately, the picture I received changed. This had never happened before. I was very young at the time, and my ego bristled, saying, “ I have to be right”. So, I emphatically restated what I had originally seen. The woman seemed dismayed, and her commitment faltered. I looked at her future once more, and it had changed back to my original prediction.

     I immediately had this sinking feeling that I had crossed some sort of spiritual line. I asked for inner guidance – clarity about what had just taken place. I was then shown that the future is not laid out before us on one singular road or track. There are in fact multiple life tracks, running parallel to each other, which have already been created. I then realized that when I was shown the original picture, I was looking at the track the woman was on in that moment. When the woman refused to accept the outcome, she switched to another track, and the future on that track was quite different. Then, when I overpowered the woman, she returned to her original track and future.

     I felt a tremendous sense of remorse. I immediately shared my discovery with the woman, and assured her that she could change the outcome of her life, by shifting from the track she was on, to the one that held the outcome she desired. I initially thought that commitment and focus were the keys to doing this, but I later discovered that this was not always the case. I spent the next ten years studying the process and learned some interesting things:

• We don’t actually create our successes and failures. We invent them, in much the same way that the airplane was invented. The airplane was not created. It was invented by taking materials, which had already been created – wood, metal, fibers, and fashioning them into an airplane.

• Our lives are invented out of circumstances, which have already been created and exist on one of our life tracks.

• If we want something, which does not exist on the track we are on, we have the ability to shift from the track we are on to the one that contains what we want.

• No one ever wants something that does not already exist on one of his or her life tracks. If you desire it, it has already been created for you. The challenge lies in knowing how to get from the track you are on, to the one that contains what you want.
