I don't think I have to tell you that spam sucks big time. It sucks so much that people hate spam and spammers. People are wasting countless hours deleting spam, writing complaints, tracking down spammers (today it is a completely hopeless thing because spammers are using networks of zombie PCs that are not even aware they are used to send the spam). I used to be a “warrior with a spam” some time ago, and amount of spam I was getting, was growing and growing, no matter what filters I used to filter out that junk.

Than I saw a movie “The Secret” and it all just snapped it. What you resist, persist. I am resisting spammers, I hate them, I fight them, I spend my valuable time trying to take them down, and it just doesn't help. I am getting more and more junk mail. But that's exactly what was explained in the movie – Law of Attraction does not care whether you want something, or you hate something. If you concentrate on it, it will increase in your life. I was manifesting more and more spam in my life, myself, just by hating it!

Well, the decision was pretty obvious – stop fighting, let go. Ignore spam. Don't pull out hair on my legs when I get a mailbox flooded. Just delete it, and forget it. Better said then done! The very next time I got my box flooded with junk I jumped up again and in seconds was at spamcop.net filing complaints. But hey, that's exactly what I was trying to avoid! But I can not just sit there and meditate “I am cool, I am cool, I don't care about spam, I don't care about spam, damn it!” – it would not work. I have those automatic reactions and I seem to be reacting that particular way no matter how hard I try not to…

Hopeless situation? Not exactly. There are ways to actually deprogram automatic subconscious reactions. Remove emotional roots from them, and render them harmless. One is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique by Gary Craig), and another is BSFF (Be Set Free Fast by Larry Nims) – you can read more about them on my site. I used both of them. First, with EFT I removed an immediate instinct to jump up and kill someone each time I received a junk mail. I think 15 minutes of EFT tapping was enough to get rid of the intensity. Then I took a piece of paper and wrote:

I hate spammers

It was the name of the whole problem that I intended to treat with BSFF. BSFF works deep with emotional roots of discomfort, and that's exactly what I was about to do. So, I took this problem (“I hate spammers”) and broke it down to smaller aspects:

I hate when I get this penis enlargement stuff

I hate replica watches

I hate small caps

I hate when I have to waste my time to try tracking them down

I hate spending my time at spamcop.net

I hate casinos

I hate when my spam filters eat important mail

I hate spammers

I wish I could do something to them physically

Etc.

I was writing it down until it finished coming out. At the end, I got a neat page full of negative stuff. Then, I simply treated each statement with a cue word from BSFF protocol and voila – my subconscious sorted it out and removed all emotional roots from the problems. When changes integrated (it took 2 days for rewiring in my brain to start to take effects) I simply stopped caring about spam. I still got it but I don't jump up every time, I don't go to spamcop, I don't complain anymore. I just delete it. And go back to work. No more hatred, no more stomach ulcers, no more family dramas because of spam overload at work. I just don't give a damn.

And now the funny part. Once I removed automatic emotional response and started to visualize my mailbox clean and neat, the amount of spam reduced dramatically, in a full accordance with Law of Attraction…
