Law of Attraction and Memory - The TRUTH about Manifestation and Your Past

In this video Aaron Doughty explains how our memories, self‑identity, and the way we view the past shape the reality we create through the Law of Attraction. He argues that the past and future only exist as mental constructs; the only true reality is the present moment. Drawing on ideas from quantum physics, neuroscience, Abraham‑Hicks and Eckhart Tolle, he shows that memories are constantly rewritten each time we recall them, and that our current emotional state biases which memories surface, reinforcing either positive or negative self‑stories. By recognizing that the past is fluid and that countless probable futures already exist in the now, we can shift our focus, emotions, and actions to align with the desired outcome. Aaron advises listeners to let go of the habitual story they tell themselves, break the autopilot pattern of recycled thoughts, and deliberately step into unknown experiences (new environments, activities) to rewire neural pathways and manifest new results. He concludes with a call to be present, feel the emotions you want, and use the unknown as a catalyst for change, while inviting viewers to follow him for live Q&A and meditations on Instagram.

This video, I'm going to be sharing with you the truth on the law of attraction and memory. I'm going to share some ideas with you that can totally change the way that you see yourself, that can help you to become the kind of person you prefer to be. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be sharing with you the truth on memory and the law of attraction and why when you begin to let go of your memory, that may actually help you to manifest more of what you want in your life. Now here's the thing with memory, and in order for us to really understand memory, we have to understand consciousness at a deeper level, which means we have to understand who we are. Now we normally think that who we are is what we have done in the past, things that have happened to us in the past. Therefore, what we do is in the present moment right now, we continue to create the same experiences over and over and over again, not aware that all we're doing is regurgitating the same thing that has happened. Now here's the thing. The past we normally think of as this thing that actually happened. We think of the past as something that is real. Now the truth is the past doesn't exist except for as something in our own mind. Same thing with the future. The future doesn't really exist because by the time the future gets here, it will be this moment right now. Memory is something we use using our brain and the future probabilities, imagination is something we use with our brain, but in actuality, the only thing that really exists is this moment right now. The more we tap into the now moment is the more we really tap into the potential of what we can manifest in our life. It's just that normally we have these identifications, these labels that keep us tied into past experiences, and what we can begin to see is we can look at reality and consciousness in a completely new way. So actually what we experience right now in the present moment is who we were. It's what was. It is the momentum of focus, the momentum of thoughts that we've had that have led up to who we think we are now. And the thing is, is we stay so consistent to the way that we see ourselves because of the way the subconscious mind works, because of the way the self-image works. Therefore, we continue to create the same things over and over and over again. Now, this is the cool thing, and this is the basis of the video that I want to share with you that I think could totally transform your life. It's understanding that we think of the past in general as something that is very solid. In actuality, the past is changing as we change. Now, this is something that actually quantum physics is beginning to show us. In the same way, think of it like this. In the present moment right now, there are many different probabilities of what you could experience in the future. That's the idea is the future. There's different probability streams. Now, depending on which one you shift to will depend upon your state of being, the actions you take in the present moment, the emotions you have, the focus. Those will determine which probable futures you have and which ones you choose at a deeper level. Now with that, they all exist right now in the present moment, and depending on the actions you take in the present moment, that will determine which probability you shift to using your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Now, in the same way, we think that the past is set, but the past is changing as we change. This is the truth. This is the thing that a lot of people don't know because we haven't studied quantum physics enough to where we have the level of understanding, and it's something that's coming out more now. We're understanding this at a deeper level now. Now, this is what the neuroscience shows us. Every time we look to a past experience in our mind, in our memory, what we do is we look at a memory in our mind and we slightly change it. We take the memory out of the memory bank, we look at it, we slightly change it without even knowing. We put a little bit of our bias, a little bit of our opinions over it. Then we put it back into the memory bank when we're done looking at it. So even though we may think that the past was the past, that is something that's happened in actuality. By the time we've looked at a memory 3 to 5 times, it's already completely different than what actually happened. So our memories aren't even that accurate. And here's something else that's cool. As your state of being changes in the present moment right now, so does the probable futures and the probable pasts that you will remember. So the memories that you can remember easily right now will depend upon this state of being that you're in. And if, for example, you're in a great state of being, if you're feeling on top of the world, if something just happened, you got a raise, you got a promotion, something just happened, you got good news. What happened is as you're in that great state of being, you're feeling awesome. If I were to ask you to remember another point in your life of when you felt a great emotion, it would be very easy for you to do so. Now the reason this is is because you're already wired in that state of being and in that state of being it's easier to recall memories that align with that state of being. Now that will constantly reaffirm that reality for you. Now here's the other thing. If you are feeling in a negative state, it is going to be easier for you to remember memories, you to remember times in your life when you also weren't in a great state of being, when bad things happened, which will then reinforce that reality. So either way, whether we're focused on something great happening, whether we're focused on something that's not so great happening, we are reaching back into the memory banks to find similar memories to which we will get an equal amount of evidence for whichever one we look for. So we could say to ourselves, I am a confident person, and in saying I'm a confident person, we can look to our past and we can find moments when we were confident that reinforced, that reinforces that self-identity. At the same time, we can say I am not confident. We could find times when we didn't do things great and when we didn't feel confident and reinforce that reality. The truth of the matter is there is an infinite number of probable, probable futures that exist. There's also an infinite number of probable pasts that exist, but we relate to certain ones based on our present state right now. What if the past is constantly changing, but we have this thread to where we believe it was something that was solid? Now that's actually more in alignment with what quantum physics is showing us. And what we are learning is things are much more flexible than we priorly thought that they were. Now, the more solid we think the past is, the more the past will have an influence over us right now, which will then have an influence over the future, which never really comes. It's just an actual idea in our imagination, but in the present moment right now, that's where all of the power is. So sometimes you may see a little bit of a contradiction. How am I supposed to— am I supposed to do the Abraham Hicks law of attraction thing or the Eckhart Tolle present to the moment thing? It's both. That's the answer. It's both. It's put your focus in a certain direction, feel the emotions of what you want, but be present to the moment right now knowing you are already whole and complete. They actually, if you look at it in a certain way, it actually very nicely intertwines anyways. But this is the thing that holds so many people back. And here's another part of this whole process. It is the story that we tell ourselves. There is a story based on our memory bank that we are constantly telling ourselves over and over and over again. This is the type of person I am. This is what I can accomplish in my life. This is what I will accomplish. There's a certain narrative, a certain archetype about the way we see ourselves that we stay consistent to, and based on that, that will determine how much success we're able to accomplish based on that story. And if we tell ourselves a story like, well, I didn't go to college for 4 years and get a degree, and I didn't go do this, and I was told to do this, and I— if we tell ourselves all of that and we believe it, then that will hold us back. But if we tell ourselves a new story, which means we look to the past in a new way, we realize the past doesn't really even exist. Rather than trying to change the past, a couple of different ways you go about this. One thing you could do is you could change your past. You could literally look at your past in a new way and realize that you normally were developing so much momentum in your mind saying, I am not a confident person. There's all this evidence and past experience that I focus on, and the more I focus on it, the more I realize that I am not a confident person. You could change that and you could start to look in your mind at things that make you more— there are times in your past when you were confident. They're just— if it's hard for you to believe or to remember that, it's just because there's momentum in the other direction. You could start to remember times in your past when you were confident, when you won some type of award, when you were given some type of positive reinforcement for doing something when you were young. At some level, there has to be something there. And then when you focus on that, you begin to change the momentum that the quote unquote past has on you because the past is something that will begin to influence you more if you focus on it more. but what I'm saying is there's a paradigm even above that. That is to drop the past entirely. You see, we like the past because the past reinforces our identity. It says, this is who I am. Let me regurgitate some things that I learned in school on a piece of paper and I'm going to look very smart, but does it really do us that much good? Is it really that beneficial to be like a parrot walking around and saying, oh, I remember this, I remember this. That is not really true intelligence. That is just a regurgitation of something we learned when we were in, you know, maybe 6th grade about earth science, about how the planets and the stars work, which may not even be actually how it works anyways. It's just something that we were learned through education, through school. But what I am saying is my intention with this video is to help you to let go of what you think you know, to let go of the past experiences, to let go of, your memory to understand that you are so much more than you can even imagine. The story that you tell, that you keep telling yourself may be what is holding you back. You can change your story or you can simply let it go. This is something I've been learning more about. I've been really combining that of Eastern philosophy with that of understanding the Western idea of the law of attraction and combining it in a way to realize we can drop our ego's perspective. We can drop the past of who we think we are. We think on average 60,000 to 70,000 thoughts a day. 90% of those are recycled from the day before. Therefore, the past memory continues to create and regurgitate itself over and over again. In actuality, let it all go. Be present to the moment. Be happy with where you are. The way you let go of the past is by observing those thoughts as they come up, not feeding them, and choosing to be more present to the moment. Choose that now is enough. Choose that you are already whole and complete. Choose that this moment you can give yourself permission to feel the emotions you want. You can give yourself permission to enjoy the present moment, and as you do that, you start to let go of the ties of the past experiences. Now, this is where the power is. It's about letting go of the story we tell ourselves, letting go of the past, understanding the past is always changing so we can keep telling ourselves This is who I am. This is what I've accomplished before. But the more we tell ourselves that story, the more we still limit ourselves and what we could experience. Now, the last thing I want to leave you with is understanding the power of the unknown. The memory gives us certainty. We feel like this is who I was. This is what I can accomplish. This is who I am. The truth of the matter is you are not the result of your past experiences. You are who you choose to be. Memory, the past experiences, that is a concept of the old, what we could call 3D reality, the emphasis on linear time-space logical type way of thinking, which we can only use for that of reference experience, but nonetheless it is not who we are when we look at it from the point of consciousness. We are so much more than we can imagine. We have to just let go of the result of thinking that we are the result of our past. We are an accumulation of past prior reference experiences of neurosynaptic connections in the brain of the way we've thought before. We are not the result of our past. We are who we choose to be in the present moment right now, and the more we choose to be the way we prefer to be and we choose to be present to the moment, The more we let go of that memory, the more we let go of that story, and the more that we then start to embody the way that we prefer to be. In the unknown is where magic happens. In the same autopilot mind, in the same thoughts that we think over and over again, nothing new can happen because it's already being regurgitated by the machine. There's no thought. There's no newness, there's no freshness. It's all just a regurgitation. So if you want to create miracles in your life, if you want to escape the trap of the memories that we have and of the prior reference experiences, get into a new environment. Do something you have never done before. In the unknown is where magic happens because the mind can't shift back into the autopilot mind. Therefore creating the same results. If we do think 60,000 to 70,000 thoughts a day and 90% of those thoughts are recycled from the day before, then we continue to create the same thing over and over and over again. We get up every day, we do the same actions, we see the same people, we have similar type conversations, we trigger the same emotions and therefore create the same results over and over and over again. And what we can do is let go of the memory, let go of the habitual patterns, let go of those and start to be new, start to do things we've never done before. Go to that yoga class you've thought of going to. Go and do something you haven't done. Go to that environment you don't feel comfortable in right now. Get into the unknown because the more you do that, the more you shake up your old identity, your old reality, the old memory, and the more you expand into more of who you really are. So this is that awareness that you are so much more than you can even imagine. You are not the result of your past. You are who you choose to be in the present moment. The more that you step into the unknown, the more you do things you haven't done before, the more you challenge that old identity, that old neurosynaptic connections in the brain, the reference experiences of who we think we are, and the more you realize that you are so much more than you can imagine, you can give yourself right now permission to be whole and complete in the present moment. The more you refocus on the present moment, The more that you embody a magical type presence and the more you will experience that which you really want in your life. So I hope that helped you today understand how you can let go of your memory, how you can be more present to the moment, and how you can magically change things in your life in a very powerful way.
