Experiences Can Be Synthesized (1/5):

A lady, from Northeastern Nigeria, once asked me, “What if everything about me has been a pain, all my life? Does that condemn me to failure?” Of course not. The clear answer is, No! No!! No!!! Your own experience does not have to be your limit unless you so choose. You hold the power in your hands. You hold the keys. You can read. You can listen. You can watch it. You can learn. You can grow. You can create. You can re-create. You can imagine. As Isaac Newton puts it, 

"If I have been able to see further, it was only because I stood on the shoulders of giants."

You can assess other people’s experiences and victories. You can stand "on the shoulders of giants" who have gone ahead. You can use their experiences, as a base, to synthesize your own. You can make their experiences, along with the driving energy behind them, yours. You can even have a better result than they did, for you can synthesize experiences from more than one person on a particular issue. You can take all the strengths, and drop their weaknesses. 

"You have strength over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength." ― Marcus Aurelius.

You can develop a "Frankenstein" experience that meets your desired end game. 

"A powerful combination to ensure success is having the vision of an eagle and the heart of a lion." ― Robert G. Allen. 

All you need do is imagine yourself walking in their shoes. How will it have been, or will it be? By the time you meditate on this long enough and allow it to soak deep into your being, it becomes your own. You take ownership. Your subconscious mind accepts it as your own experience of life. It assumes it actually happened to you. And, provides you with the same adrenaline support and agility, someone who went through the real occurrence gets.
