7 Spiritual Steps to Dissolve Any Problem

Herb Fitch's practical Infinite Way method for turning any condition over to divine Consciousness — presented by Mike Spirit Ademola

Why does a problem sometimes refuse to yield, even after you've brought to it every ounce of meditation and spiritual effort you can muster? Herb Fitch opens this session with that exact question — and answers it with seven specific, repeatable steps drawn from the Infinite Way. His claim is bold: not one problem humanity experiences, "including that which is termed natural disaster," has ever been proven to withstand the presence of God-consciousness once it is genuinely brought to bear.

This isn't a call to try harder at an old technique. It's an invitation to shift where you are looking entirely — away from the problem "out there" and into the one place Fitch says any problem is actually happening: individual consciousness itself.

Step One: Consciousness Is All There Is

Fitch begins with the foundational recognition on which every other step depends: God is consciousness, and because God is all, consciousness is all — including you.

"God is consciousness. And because God is all, consciousness is all. Because consciousness is all, you are that. You are all and all is you. The entire universe of you is actually and literally the one consciousness individually existing as being — you are your consciousness."

This is the "greatest of all secrets," as Fitch calls it — the same truth every spiritual master has taught: I am that I am, and heaven truly is earth. Once this is genuinely recognized, not just believed, the ground is prepared for the rest of the method.

Step Two: There Is No "Out There" to Fix

If consciousness is all, then a problem cannot exist in the place it appears to exist — in the body, in a circumstance, in another person. Fitch is emphatic on this point.

"There is quite literally no out there. There is only consciousness... So you can see that a problem does not exist where it appears to be out there somewhere, even out there in the body. Nor is it what it appears to be... Any and every problem is a problem of false belief alone."

This is why Fitch insists we never blame a person, condition, time, or place for a problem — nor collective consciousness. The work, and the healing, happen in only one location: individual consciousness. "Once consciousness is harmonized," he teaches, "the outer appearing problem harmonizes, because consciousness and experience are one."

Steps Three and Four: Turn Within, Then Recognize God as the Only Presence

Knowing that the problem is a matter of consciousness alone, the practical move is to stop looking at the material appearance entirely and turn to consciousness itself — not to fix the body or circumstance, but to rest in the truth of what is already so.

"Let go of the idea of material activity solving material problem. Indulge not even a material thought about the problem or its seeming material solution. Leave it alone for the false belief it is and turn here to consciousness alone... The only visible presence is God. The only presence, period, is God."

Fitch then addresses the obvious next question — why, if God is all, do we experience sickness, lack, and disharmony at all? His answer is sense, not entity: "We are having a corporeal sense of that which is one hundred percent incorporeal." Sense is real as an experience, but it has no power to change what is actually true — just as sensing a blue shirt as gray doesn't turn the shirt gray.

Mind Is Form, Form Is Mind — and Neither One Has Power Over God

Fitch takes time to dismantle a subtler error: the belief that spirit must somehow transform itself into visible good, that the infinite must "make its qualities tangible to the finite." He calls this false idea directly.

"Mind and form are one and the same thing... Mind is form. Form is mind... Only God is power. Mind does not change God into different form, substance, characteristic, presence, truth... Nothing, including mind, can change God, the one and only power."

What differs between a person suffering and a person at peace, Fitch teaches, is not what God is doing but the individual's degree of conscious awareness — just as everyone shares access to the same infinite mathematics, yet each person's tangible experience of it is limited to their own degree of understanding.

Steps Five Through Seven: God Is Already — Nothing to Earn, Nothing Withheld

The culmination of the method is a single word Fitch adds to everything said about God: already. Not becoming, not eventually, not once you're good enough — already.

"God is already. God is complete, finished, whole, perfect, already. There is no such thing as unfinished God, incomplete God, intangible God... Your lack of health is not a lack of the presence of life, because such a lack is impossible... A lack of the experience of health is a lack of conscious awareness of life being the only life there is."

Applied to lack of any kind — money, love, harmony — the same logic holds: God is not withholding, because withholding is impossible for that which is already the unconditional whole of itself. What remains is simply to become consciously aware of what is already true, morning, noon, and night, until the outer condition reflects it. This, Fitch says, is the entire secret of the ages, available not through effort but through recognition.
