What you resist will persist

I just want to piece together what Carl Jung, John Grinder and Albert Einstein all said that seems to flow together into one concept.

Carl Jung said that "what you resist will persist." Meaning that whatever you are trying to fight against, resist will continue to be present.

John Grinder said "you cannot stop doing something, you can only replace it with doing something else. You can't just say 'stop hitting your baby sister,' you have to say 'go and pick up the news paper from the end of the drive." John explains that what your presently doing can't be stopped, it must be replaced with something else otherwise the only other option is to keep on doing what you were doing.

Albert Einstein said that "energy never get destroyed, it can only change form." So, you can't just delete parts of the universe you can only change it into something else.

Piecing it all together - the theme explains that if you are resisting something it's only option is to carry on as it is. Until it is given the option to be/do something else, it's only option is to be/do as it currently is. For example, you keep telling your friend to stop eating crap because it is bad for them. They keep eating that way even though you tell them about all the dire consequences. Until there is an alternative way to eat they will continue to follow the same pattern. So you tell your friend 'try this avocado salad,' or 'wow, try this raw pudding,' and tell them about all the amazing benefits it has. You are no longer resisting the crap eating anymore, you are persisting in another direction.

The term 'whatever you resist, persists' is a resisting term because it does not give an alternative to the current state. The term 'Whatever you insist instead of what you resist will becomes what persists,' has an alternative offering of other opportunities.

I hope this makes sense,
