DRIVING WITH THE BRAKES ON is about understanding the abilities we have as spirits and how they have been obscured or forgotten. It invites readers to begin (or continue) their own spiritual quest, and to explore and expand their own consciousness by reaching into new areas of possibility. Driving with the Brakes On also describes how we are often intentionally steered off our paths into other directions by mechanisms in our current society, and how we unwittingly contribute to this. In many cases, we have gone far off our paths and become trapped by simply not being aware of how we created this outcome. Bill Murphy shows how to be conscious of and avoid these pitfalls as we move through life and how to reorient ourselves into living as we intended and stop "driving with the brakes on." In addition this book covers:

Ways to increase love and appreciation of yourself, and trust in your abilities
How to see and get rid of negative energy
Ways to cultivate and strengthen appreciation and love for others (even people you might not like)
How to steer yourself back onto a path you choose.
The reasons why these methods work
Examples from the author's own personal mistakes, transitions, and changes
Other resources to expand your journey and consciousness

When you are driving, by looking far, far down the road, you are able to make fewer and smoother corrections. Driving with the Brakes On shows you how to do this in your life.

Review

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It not only reminded me of things I could do now that I had forgotten about, but I also gained a new perspective on how to change many areas in my current way of life. The most valuable information was realizing how many belief systems and thought structures I have been burdened with that were not really my own, but those imposed upon me by others. It has made me more aware now when others attempt to force their beliefs upon me. I can also recognize when I'm thinking based on old beliefs versus creating new ways to solve issues.

I especially enjoyed the author's stories about himself and others, which helped put the thoughts and ideas he was expressing in a clearer perspective. The many studies, findings and quotes he sighted also helped to clarify the ideas he was trying to portray.

Driving with the Brakes On provides the opportunity to search oneself and work on how to improve our daily lives. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is working to improve how they view things and searching for new ways to expand their thinking.

From the Author

Introduction

This is not a scientific journal trying to prove anything or convince. It is intended to be a catalyst for us to expand our thoughts, concepts, and questions about what is possible, what actually exists, and what is an illusion. We have been taught to rule many things out, to disregard perceptions outside the five senses lest we be considered weird, unbalanced, or other such labels. We can rethink what's possible. The things in this book have happened. Many times the beliefs we've become comfortable with don't easily allow the expansion of our thoughts and abilities beyond what our society deems "normal." This model is the exact thing restricting us from considering broader possibilities and perceptions. There are fantastic things that have happened and are happening all the time. You can expand your viewpoint of what's possible, reach into those areas you are curious about, and do some reading about them. This will stretch your boundaries.

We frequently become tightly defined by our environments, material possessions, education, or family. But what if all that was incidental and contained a significant amount of misdirection and untruth? There are several main intentions of this book, and one of the first is to invite you to look beyond this physical plane and reconnect to your essence. It is an invitation to expand our concepts of who we are and where we're going.

The next part of this book will show how we are being steered in our daily lives and how we set up thought patterns that continue to steer us along paths we may not have selected. We can also be unaware that we are doing this or how these things came to be. This concept called "thought structures" lays out how we can easily wind up "driving with the brakes on" in our lives, hence the title.

The thought structures concept will be woven throughout the book to give examples of these and how we can see them as they begin to happen. This makes it less likely we will become steered onto paths we don't want as we go forward into our futures. We will see how we have set out on our own courses or paths in ways that may be entirely off what we had originally intended when we came into physical form.

Next we will explore what science has discovered about how decisions and beliefs we create affect us and others on both microcosmic and macrocosmic levels. We will also look at how different types of energies and communications can impact the way in which we evolve on our life's path.

Finally we will examine a few ways to get back on track and become more aligned with where we want to go, who we want to be, and become aware of how to get there. It's a book about our voyage in the physical and how we can get more out of it.

Let's start with this truth: you are sacred and have incredible value.
