Mindy Audlin is one of my favorite people.
She's charming, smart, upbeat, and a remarkable speaker and teacher. We held an event together two years ago where I first learned about her What If Up game.
It was life changing.
The best way to understand how it works is to realize the favorite question of the mind is "What if?"
But for most of us that question is asked in a negative, or down, way.
We ask "What if this doesn't work out?" or "What if I lose my job?" or "What if I'm wrong?"
Obviously, that negative seeking question doesn't feel good, and leads to attracting the fears it focuses on.
But Mindy asks you to do a what if UP.
You might ask, "What if this works out beautifully?" or "What if there was never a problem in the first place?" or "What if I get a raise?" or "What if my idea makes me a millionaire?"
This single adjustment in how you ask a question transforms you, your energy, and the very answers you get.
The idea is to look for new possibilities by letting your mind be free. When you do this, you feel fantastic. You also send this new energy into the Universe as an order or request.
I recently attended one of Mindy's local (Wimberley, Texas) What If Up parties. That's where people break into groups of five or so and take turns What If Up-ing each other. It's very juicy and even addictive (in a positive way).
For example, when it was my turn, I said I want the infomercial coming out this week for The Awakening Course to be a top seller in the self-help market.
When you state your goal or problem, you're not allowed to explain it or tell your story around it. It's not needed. You simply state your desire and let the magic begin.
So I stated mine about wanting my infomercial to be a hit.
Someone instantly said, "What if it is the number one bestseller in all categories?"
Someone else said, "What if it is the number one bestseller of this century?"
Another said, "What if it is the number one bestselling infomercial in all of history!?"
At this point I was feeling electricity pumping through my veins.
Mindy explains that the exercise isn't to create a to-do list. You don't make notes or how-tos or to-dos.
The point is to raise your energy, get into the feeling of what you want, and let that experience attract the end result to you.
You still take action, of course, but it's inspired action.
It comes from that place within you that feels great and naturally unfolds. You don't have to make yourself do it; you want to do it.
A beautiful side benefit of doing the what if up exercise a few times is it changes your thinking.
Suddenly you start asking what if up questions in your head rather than what if down questions.
