The Law of Attraction: CREATING HAPPINESS

We all strive to create happiness, every second of every day, this is what we are most hardily trying to create, happiness.  We look high and low for what we feel is the ever elusive happiness.  We look to everything and everyone on the outside to accomplish this, as it must be somewhere outside of ourselves, right?  We read books that tells us where to look, what to change and who to listen too.  All so easy, at least it seems to be all that easy.  Yet, why are we still so unhappy?!!

While we look externally for the answer, the one main thing we are actually doing is not realizing where our answers truly come from, which is within ourselves.  It seems that whenever an answer is required to naturally come from within, we dismiss is quicker than we dismiss an annoying fly!  We think that is where we need to put our focus first, on ourselves and our own responsibility.  Once we give some focus there, we can further address how to truly create happiness.

We first must not just realize that we are magnificent creator beings, but we need to achieve this to the level of belief, the level of truly knowing that we are individuals, that when united in acceptance with our physical and non physical selves, having unconditional faith of this fact, then and only then can we begin to embrace our responsibility for creating our own journey, taking full responsibility for all that we experience, including happiness.  Once we embrace this fact, and truly feel the worth of it deep within our beings will we truly be able to successfully achieve the creations that we are trying to create!  At the level of feeling is where all creating begins, feel it……believe it……live it!  This is a hard concept for most people to embrace as we have been conditioned to believe that life happens to us and it really is life happens because of us!  Let us say that again, “many are taught to believe that LIFE HAPPENS TO US AND IT REALLY IS LIFE HAPPENS BECAUSE OF US”.  Can you feel the difference between the two statements?  We are sure you do and we are sure and most certain that when you say the latter part of the statement it begins to ring true deep within your being.  It most definitely is true, LIFE HAPPENS BECAUSE OF US!  We are the creators!  Knowing we are the creators then we most definitely are the ones to experience that which we create!  Beginning to make sense?  We thought so!

Now that we are beginning to realize that we are magnificent creator beings, creating the reality that we experience each and every day we can now address the next part of the question, creating happiness within our own life.  Understanding and feeling that we are magnificent creator beings, having the ability to create that which we want to experience and not just knowing this but feeling this will set the stage for the next part of our discussion.  Having that belief that we create our own happiness, that it is not found outside of our awareness, in other words happiness is already within us, we just need find the perspectives within life that draw us closer to the real us, which draws us closer to our true internal happiness.   Remember, our internal world will reflect the external world.  It never happens by our external world reflecting our internal world.  Think about that for a moment.  One statement actually feels better than the other.  Say them both out loud, “OUR INTERNAL WORLD WILL REFLECT OUR EXTERNAL WORLD”.    Say it out loud, feel it!  Now let’s examine the next statement.  “THE EXTERNAL WORLD WILL REFLECT OUR INTERNAL WORLD”.    You should be feeling the reality between these two statements.  Now that you are feeling the difference, you are understanding the difference and you will most certainly begin to create the difference!  You are now in a better place to begin to create happiness, to bring more happiness within you conscious reality, to create that which you are wanting to experience rather than contrast to get you to focus on that which you desire!

Lastly let’s address one issue that remains our hot topic.  To successfully create happiness, the most successful way to create happiness is to get to know the real and become united in acceptance with the real you.  Being united in acceptance merely means that you know, understand and feel your physical being (the aspect you see in the mirror) within this world AND you know, understand and feel your non-physical being (the aspect you feel when you close your eyes) within the world AND know, understand and feel both of these aspects as the full and complete you, knowing fully that these two aspects make up the whole and complete you!  Hence, you are united in acceptance!

You are now in a better state to create your own happiness!  Remember, only you can create for you, just you, no one else, simply you can create for you!  Knowing this, understanding this and feeling this statement deep within your being, you are now better equipped to create more happiness within your journey, your life, your being, your reality!  Remember, it is YOUR journey!  Take care of it, create that which you desire and you will always experience that which you desire!

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION “MAKING SENSE OF IT ALL”

The Law of Attraction, the Law that dictates that Like Attracts Like.  Sounds simple, and it is but there is so much more to that simplistic statement and the Law that truly governs our life and how we create that which we experience within our lives.  Simple, yet complex and that is why we feel folks get so caught up in the details that they lose sight of the bigger picture, the creative factor as well as the self factor.  While there are many complexities to The Law of Attraction, it really is all about how you feel and what you do with how you feel! 

Imagine, how you feel and what you do with how you feel is really where your focus needs to be when trying to work with the Law of Attraction.  To start the process properly, you truly need to take a quick minute to get to know exactly who you are as a human being, an individual within this physical plane we call home.  Become “United In Acceptance” with who you are, meaning you must first recognize there are two aspects to your being, the physical you see and the non physical you feel.  Then you need to recognize that these two aspects intertwine together creating one whole and complete being, the real you!  Once you have achieved this aspect of life, you are then “United In Acceptance” with the real you and your relationship with self has started and you are well underway to not only understanding the Law Of Attraction, but successfully working with the Law of Attraction.  This aspect of understanding and making sense of the Law of Attraction is the most exciting aspect as you are developing the sense of well being, the sense of knowing that you came forth into this physical journey to truly work with the essence of the Law of Attraction.  The better you develop the relationship with self, the more successfully you will work with the Law of Attraction, as you will be tuned in, tapped in and turned on to not only who you are but exactly what your desires, your heartfelt desires truly are and will be open to all the steps the Law of Attraction will provide you with to successfully manifest and experience your desires!

Sounds exciting and it is exciting!  When you have successfully achieved the “Unite In Acceptance” aspect of your journey here within this physical plane, you are now in a position to truly realize that you are the creator of your own journey!  You create that which you experience.  When you have this within your foundation of your understanding of the Law of Attraction, you are setting yourself up to have an extraordinary life, a life that will encompass much desire and minimal contrast.  When you have established your strong foundation, you have no doubt that you are a creator and that you and only you can create the journey you traveling.  No one can do it for you!  Others can absolutely co-create with you, influence you and share their wisdom with you, but in the end only you can create that which you experience.  This is why it is so important to create a strong foundation from which you can grow and create your reality.  It is up to you.  You can’t sit back and let or allow someone else to create for you as only you know and understand your true heartfelt desires, therefore you should know and realize that only you can create your journey.  Know this aspect and you know your foundation and you are truly beginning to understand your creative powers, giving you a greater stance when it comes to your own “self empowerment” giving you a further creative genius that even better sets you in a grand place to work with the Law of Attraction!

You have now achieved a greater awareness of the Law of Attraction, of self and of your own creative abilities.  With this new found awareness you now need to begin to pay attention to how you feel with a vengeance, so to speak.  The way you feel is your “Language of Self”, your communication system between your physical being and non physical being.  Your “Language Of Self” is that internal voice, that gut feeling that urges you to do one thing over another, encourages you to not do something, that internal light that serves as your true guide when all else seems to be lost.  Most of us see the “Language of Self” in hind sight as we ask ourselves, “why did I just do that” or “why did I not do this” or even “I knew that was going to happen”.  All living examples of our communicative ability, our communication system within ourselves, our own “Language of Self” is our best tool when working with the Law of Attraction and creating, manifesting and experiencing our true heartfelt desires.  Understanding this aspect, and having a knowing and belief about your own “Language of Self” will serve you all the days you are within this physical plane creating that which you truly desire.  Remember this, you will never give yourself bad information, you will never steer yourself in the wrong direction, you will always create your desires when you fully listen to and understand your own “Language of Self”.

We are certain you are now beginning to make more sense of the Law of Attraction.  It truly is a simple process that we complicate more than we realize, but then if we did not complicate this process we would not be human!  Enjoy the journey as when you do you are truly appreciating and utilizing all of your creative abilities!

WHAT IS IT THAT YOU ARE WANTING?

 

Do you know the answer to this question?  Or do you have to think about it for a moment or even a couple of moments?  More than likely you are in the latter group as most individuals truly do not know what they are wanting in life.  Sure, you may be able to rattle off one or two “feel good” items such as a new car or house.  Those items, we believe, are societal conditioning desires – keeping up with the Jones’ thing.  But what is it that you are truly wanting, that you truly have a heartfelt desire to experience?  Don’t feel bad if you can’t rattle off a long list of heartfelt desires, as you are in the largest groups of individuals walking around today!  We really don’t take enough time for ourselves, enough time to truly bring into our own awareness that which we truly desire for ourselves.  Many reasons for this, the most common being not wanting to be selfish, not wanting to ignore others and just getting wrapped up in life being too busy fending off contrast that we are most certain we never created or intended to create.  After all, why would we want to create contrast when we know we are brilliant creator beings, capable of creating every heartfelt desire we can dream up?!!  Why would we put ourselves through this process?  Why would we put aside our magnificent ability to create desire for our equally powerful ability to create contrast, to merely get us re-focused on that which we desire?  Something to ponder perhaps, something for us to really sit and realize where our perspective truly is on this issue!

The answer is simple, so simple that it gives us such grief.  It seems the simpler something is, the more difficulty we have in disseminating what it truly is trying to tell us.  Again, this is due to societal conditioning as we have been conditioned to believe that anything in life that is worth having, worth doing, worth being must come hard.  Why we would do this to ourselves is beyond us, but society just loves to make things more difficult, much harder to achieve than is actually possible.  The answer is focus!  Yes focus!  Surprised?  You shouldn’t be as what we usually focus on is usually not what we are wanting, but rather what we are not wanting!  Stop for a quick minute and think about this.  You have a heartfelt desire come into your physical awareness.  You think about it, you feel it and then what happens?  You begin to tell yourself why that desire will never come to pass: you don’t have enough money…..you don’t have enough time…….you tell yourself  that you could never have that….you tell yourself to get real, after all it is you and not someone else….you tell yourself to keep dreaming and the list can go on and on and on!  We sabotage ourselves, we feel our heartfelt desires and then we place our focus on why we can not manifest that which we desire.  Our focus in on the non manifestation of the desire, therefore the Law of Attraction works brilliantly!  You may be thinking about creating the desire, however you feel that you can never manifest such a desire!  Here in lies the true difference between “thinking and feeling”!  This is why we always stress it is not about what you think but rather how you feel!  The Law of Attraction responds to how we feel and not what we think.  While it is true that “thoughts become feelings”, when we truly know who we are as true and complete whole beings, being united in acceptance with the physical aspect and non physical aspect, how we feel will dictate our thoughts , but when we are not united in acceptance in this fashion, we tend to allow our thoughts steer our feelings.  In other words we rationalize our feelings to match our thoughts.  If we have the feeling that we can achieve a particular manifestation, we will then allow thoughts to rationalize why we can not achieve that manifestation usually using the most convenient rationalizations at hand.  We talk ourselves out of the desire, we ignore the feeling.  We try to be less than what we have become, and there in lies the reason we now create contrast, contrast to get us to refocus on that which we truly desire as we are most capable of manifesting each and every desire we think and feel about.  No exceptions!  A perfect system in which we are pleasantly imperfect, but it truly is magnificent system we created, which is why we profess that contrast truly is a positive experience!

So what have we learned?  We do get what we want all the time!  The next time you manifest something that you did not want, stop and remember what you had  been feeling about the desire.  What thoughts did you have about the desire?  Be honest with yourself!  You will begin to realize that your focus was exactly on what you created, what you felt is exactly what you created, again no exceptions!

Creating Anew

Sometimes we focus so much on what we are manifesting that we forget that everything is created energetically long before it ever manifests. Something then manifests and we look at it and then say…”but this is not what I want” and wonder what we did to manifest such a thing. We look at why it manifested, try to find that 1 thought or belief that manifested this thing we say we did not want. We try to erase it, undo it, reverse it and overall resist that it manifested. Well that is all wasted energy because once something manifests it is now part of you past. It has happened, it has already occurred and the only choice you now have is what you are going to do with it.  

Think about those times when something manifested that you say you did not want and look at how you handle that. What questions are you asking yourself? What rationalizations are you using?  The biggest part of this whole process is thinking that what manifested in the first place is something that you did not want. Oh sure you may not think it is what you wanted but it is. The problem is in the perspective that this experience is a negative one. It may feel negative because the energy used to create it was of a lower vibration but that it is your judgment of the experience that makes it a negative not the experience itself. 

We fail to ask the most important question…”What is this experience telling me?” “What did I create this experience for?” We would rather look backward to try to figure out why this thing manifested as opposed to looking forward. When you look forward we begin to understand who we really are and what wonderful and master creators we are. The manifesting part takes care of itself when we realize we are creators not manifesters.    We focus so much on manifesting what we want and manifesting faster that we lose sight of the fact that we are creators. Change what you are creating and you will change what is manifesting. 

You can begin to create something new right here in this very moment without ever having to look backwards. You need to keep your focus present centered. Empower yourself as the creator you are. What has already manifested only tells you what you created in the past and has no bearing on what you can create when moving forward. What you are creating today are your manifestations of the tomorrows to come.  The past is the past and the future is yours to create.

MAKING THOUGHTS REAL

 

Each time you have a thought, you actually are making that thought real as you are bringing that specific thought into your physical reality.  In other words you are giving birth to that idea, that desire.  Once you do this, you have started the process in which you make your thought real.  You have your thought, which then begins to take on a life of its own as it becomes an idea and that thought now takes on feeling which as we know sets the Law of Attraction into motion and begins to set forth the steps you need to take to bring that once simple thought into reality as a full fledge manifestation and experience of a desire.

It really is not a complicated process.  Now you don’t have to monitor all your thoughts each and every second of each day.  That would become a nearly impossible task and would surely drive you crazy.  All you really need to do is pay close attention to those thoughts that truly resonate within you, the thoughts that carry with them a good feeling to you.  Those are the thoughts that you truly want to entertain, the ones you want to bring into your physical reality to experience.

The Law of Attraction is sincerely your greatest tool when it comes to making your thoughts real.  This is why you pay close attention to the feel behind your thoughts and grab on to the better feeling thoughts.  When you truly align yourself with your better feeling thoughts, you are bringing forth your heartfelt desires.  The best way to do this is to take that quick minute to get to know the real you, the whole and complete you.  By that we mean the physical aspect of yourself that you see in the mirror and the non physical aspect that you feel.  The non physical is the truest aspect of the real you, as that is the part of you that is fully within that of Source Energy.  And as we know, Source Energy is a pure flow of positive energy.  When you fully know and understand who you are as a whole and complete being, in other words a being united in acceptance with the physical and non physical and seeing yourself as only one complete being, and you being forth that being, that individual into this physical reality you are now living your life from the standpoint of the real you.  When you do this, you are now in a position to truly make your thoughts real, truly in the position to experience that which you desire.  How powerful is that?!!  Sounds simple and it truly is simple, just take that quick minute and get to know the real you and bring forth that real you, feel that real you and you will now truly be working with the Law of Attraction in the manner in which we were meant to work with it!

Now let’s take a look at negative thoughts.  First we must understand what a negative thought truly is to be able to have a full understanding.  A negative thought is merely contrast within our physical awareness.  And we all know what contrast is, it is merely a desire indicator.  Therefore, if a negative thought is contrast and contrast is merely a desire indicator, then we can deduce that a negative thought really is not negative as it is helping us fully define a desire.  Putting that in proper perspective, what we once perceived as a negative thought is actually a positive thought as it is bringing more awareness into our consciousness of that which we do want to experience as that once perceived negative thought is telling us what we really do not want to experience.  We are sure you are beginning to see and feel the power behind this type of appropriate thinking.  As you begin to think and feel this way, you really are beginning to know and bring forth the real you into your physical reality!  How amazing and powerful is that!  Knowledge truly is magnificent and truly a way to harness your own power and utilize your power in a positive manner.  Begin to truly understand this process, and it will become second nature to you and you will find it very easy to work the Law of Attraction process, therefore you will begin to create the very life you desire, you will begin to live the life you have always desired!

Making your thoughts real is a process.  It is the Law of Attraction process.  A process we all have inner knowledge of before we took our physical bodies.  We really only have to feel our way through this process as that is how the Law of Attraction works, through feeling.  Remember that, and you will begin to feel the success of working appropriately with the Law of Attraction.  Remember:  “It is not what you think, but rather how you feel” that matters most within this journey!  Whether you perceive your thought as positive or negative, we have learned that all thoughts are positive, you just need to take the time to understand whether they are a “Desire Thought” or a “Desire Indicator Thought” and work with the process long enough, you will begin to decipher the difference quickly and correctly!  How magnificently powerful is that!

HOW DO I FIND MY DESIRES

On the surface, the title of this blog may seem very simplistic, even a bit elementary.  However, it is nothing of the sort!  Stop and think for just one moment about your own desires.  What is it that you truly desire?  What is it that you truly want to create and experience?  Are you thinking?  I’m sure you are, but that is most likely because you were asked that specific question.  You see, unless  specifically asked you probably do not take the time to even reflect on what it is that you desire let alone even know how to truly find that which you desire!

Most individuals never take the time to really explore what their true heartfelt desires are let alone finding them so they can create them!  We will answer the question, what is a true heartfelt desire?  It is simply a desire that is a true and accurate reflection of who you are as an individual.  In other words, the creation  and experience of a true heartfelt desire is a true and accurate portrayal of the internal you, the real you.  And when you experience this type of desire, you experience a feeling of completeness and internal joy that can only be felt when the desire is true and heartfelt. When you create something that is not a true and heartfelt desire you do not have that feeling of completeness, you may perhaps feel a void internally that you were hoping the creation would fill, but did not.  You may feel that disappointing feeling, empty feeling, perhaps even hopelessness.  Those feelings are all due to you not creating a heartfelt desire.  Nearly all of those created desires are created from the ego, and this is done by creating from the external to try and fill a void internally.  This type of creating  will never fill the void you feel.  You fill that void by first and foremost getting to know the real you.  While doing that you begin to chip away at that empty hollow feeling.  You are creating a relationship between the physical and non physical being that you are and in doing so you are becoming “united in acceptance” as you no longer see yourself as two separate beings, physical and non physical, but rather see and feel yourself as one whole complete being that has two aspects but they operate as one.  It is like your TV, it has a picture and it has sound, while yes they can operate separately, they are at their best when they work together,  picture and sound.  When one or the other is out, how frustrated do you get?  Well it is the same when you live your life from the standpoint that you are two separate beings and try to live life from that aspect.  You create confusion, frustration and undoubtedly will create contrast to get you to focus on being “united in acceptance”.  When you begin your process here, you are beginning the process of finding your desires, your true heartfelt desires!  All desires that are true and heartfelt will all have the same aspects, they will have a good feeling associated with them, they will be a true reflection of who you really are as a being “united in acceptance” and they will offer you internal joy, happiness and peace that will not come from a desire created from your ego mind.  Stop and take a quick minute to reflect on your journey thus far, and think about the desires that you created that were truly fulfilling and those that were less than pleasing to you.  You will be able to feel the difference and in feeling the difference you will begin to understand how and where you find your desires, the desires that sincerely are a reflection of the real you, desires that you came forth to create, manifest and experience on your journey.  The desires that fulfill rather than deplete your happiness.  There is a difference.  When creating from the ego rather than the real self, you will notice the amount of contrast is greater and increases in severity as the so called desire unfolds.  However, when creating true heartfelt desires, the opposite is true.  While there may be some contrast, it is usually on the level of preference (not that severe) and the process has a flow to it that is as pleasing as the manifestation and experience of that very desire!  You will feel the difference, you will experience the difference!

Get to know the real you, begin to love the real you and bring forth the real you into this physical reality, all the while living life from the standpoint of being “united in acceptance” and you will begin that fun process of not just finding your desires, your true heartfelt desires, but you will most certainly begin to create, manifest and experience those very desires!  Life your life as you intended to live it prior to coming into this physical reality, live your life deliberately, live your life within the concept of being “united in acceptance” and you will never have to look and search too far for your desires, your true heartfelt desires as they will always be known to you.  You will just have to feel your way to them and you will every time, no exceptions!

To learn more about “How To Find Your Desires” be sure to tune into the ITSC Blog Talk Radio show this Friday, 4PM eastern time at www.blogtalkradio.com/ITSC as Mary Anne and David dialog on this very topic!  Join them and become a the true creative being that you came forth to be within this physical plane!  Live life the way you intended to live it, a life that will be a true reflection of who you really are, a being that is “united in acceptance”!

Until next time, may you continue to experience all that you desire!

Creating With Intent

 There is a common misunderstanding as to what Creating with Intent really means. Creating with intent is not the same as creating an intention to be/do/have something. When you use an intention statement, in the form of a positive affirmation, to create an intention you will often see it formed like this.... "I intend to experience prosperity and abundance in my life" or you might see "I intend that my business is flourishing and income is flowing freely". Another way it is common to use these statements is to say...."It is my intention to let go of fear with ease and grace". When you use these types of statements you are creating an intention. This puts what it is you desire to manifest into the future. Energetically, it puts your manifestation into some future point of time. These types of statements are not definitive statements. Why would you intend to manifest something? Why not just manifest it?

Creating with intent however is creating with focus, attention as in the word intensity. It is creating with intensity, the intensity of your focus, attention....your energy.  This brings your energy into the present moment. The Law of Attraction responds to your energy, what you are feeling. The stronger the intensity of your desire, the larger the manifestation of that desire.

When you create with intent, you have a vision, you can feel that vision. You focus your energy, your thoughts on how that vision feels. When you hold onto this you can actually feel the energy grow and expand.

All things are created energetically long before they ever manifest.If you want to manifest something do not intend to do so but do so with intent, with the intensity of your energy and let that energy grow and expand.  

Are your Beliefs Limiting?

Have you thought about what it is that you believe? Beliefs are the foundation of where we create our lives from. A belief is a chronic and persistent thought that we have held onto over the course of time. We have thought it so many times that it has become a belief. 

A belief can be and often are limiting. This means that if you are not willing to shift, expand or change a belief you are limiting yourself to the possibilities that life can have for you. What you believe yourself to be is what you will be and what you are. This belief effects your perception and perspective on who you say you are. 

If you believe yourself to be something other than who you really are, then that belief is limiting you in your ability to not only be who you are but to experience yourself as a whole and complete being. 

Do you believe that you are not good enough, smart enough, pretty enough? That there is not enough "stuff" to go around? That there is not enough "time", not enough "food", not enough of______ you fill in the blank. These are all limiting beliefs that stem from a core belief that there is something "lacking". There is something "lacking" in you, your life and in the world as a whole.

If when you pay your bills you think or are worried, concerned that you will not or do not have enough money to do so, then this is an indicator that you have a belief that there is only so much money to go around and you do not have enough. This is a limiting belief that is keeping you from being able to have more of what you want.How can you possibly manifest more money when you believe that you do not have enough in the first place...it can't happen.

Limiting beliefs will block you so to speak from manifesting a desire. How can you possibly loose weight when you believe yourself to be fat, see yourself as fat and feel fat. It can't happen.


Here is a little exercise you can do to help you identify your limiting beliefs.
1. Write down a heartfelt desire you have that has not manifested yet.
2. Write down your thoughts in relation to this desire.
3. Write down how those thoughts make you feel
4. From what you wrote in 1-3 what does that tell you that you are believing about the desire. 

You can do this for any desire. In our next post we will talk about how to shift and expand ones beliefs... but until then you can work on exploring your beliefs and identify those that you feel are limiting you from being who you really are and having your desires manifest.

What do you Expect?

Expectation is closely related to knowing. It is a stepping stone to being in a state of knowing. It is more than being hopeful and certainly leads to experiencing more joy. There is much to be said for feeling a positive expectation. There is also much misunderstood about having a positive expectation.


Positive expectation means that you are looking forward, with a positive view point, towards the manifestation of a desire. Ones thoughts, perspective, beliefs and emotions all need to reflect this positive expectation. That is the real trick to experiencing a positive expectation. If you have a positive a positive expectation you also must allow yourself to experience that expectation.


Where we all get tripped up is we tend to be afraid to allow this because we do not want to be disappointed. Once that occurs, because of the way the Law of Attraction works, you will experience disappointment because that is where you have placed your focus. You thoughts, beliefs and emotions reflect not wanting to be disappointed which means you are focused on disappointment. Your focus needs to be placed on what you want to positively expect.


You can say you expect that a certain desire will manifest but if you believe otherwise, think otherwise and feel otherwise then you will manifest otherwise. Then when you experience disappointment as a result you say it was because you expected the desire to manifest and it did not. It is not the expectation that is the root of the disappointment. It is because of the fears that limited and blocked you from allowing yourself to experiencing the positive expectation of the desire manifesting.


Sometimes we have desires and positive expectations for others and in doing so experience disappointment when that desire does not manifest. There are several reasons for this. The first is we can only create for ourselves. The Law of Attraction responds to you and the energy and vibrations of what you are believing, thinking and feeling. When we have desires for another we tend to place that expectation on them and expect them to create what we desire for them. When they do not, we become disappointed and hurt. There are times when we have expectation and desires for another just so we can feel better.


It is ok and in fact a “good thing” to have positive expectations. Just release the emotional attachment to the outcome or result. Allow yourself to experience positive expectations as your stepping stone to being in a state of knowing. Release fears, shift the thoughts and beliefs that limit and block you and you will be able to experience positive expectations and manifest that which you desire.

How Fast Will My “Stuff” Show Up

One of the most frequently asked question we have come upon is “How long is it going to take for my stuff to show up?” The most common answer to this is often, “As fast as you can line up with what you want, then it show up.” That is neither a very satisfying answer nor a complete one, from our perspective. This type of answer tends to lead one in a direction away from their desire as they begin to question and doubt what they are doing. In the moment you question and doubt you have moved yourself away vibrationally and emotionally from your desire. 

The most prevalent understanding of how the manifesting process works is that once one is all lined up with their desire, they are visualizing it, thinking positive about it, put it on their vision board, doing their gratitude journal about it, then “poof” there it is…my stuff has manifested. If that was all there is to the story then we would be lottery winners by now, our dream car would be in the driveway and we would be living in our dream home wouldn’t we? Then to make matters worse, we are told they reason those things have not happened is because we are not lined up with it. We are told that the only reason things are not showing up is because of this non alignment. All this leads you and your thinking in a direction away from what it is you want and once that happens of course your stuff is not showing up. So let’s put the breaks on this run away train here and collect our thoughts for a minute. 

Let’s look at some of the factors that influence how fast our desires manifest. 

• Sometimes we think we are all lined up but there maybe some underlying core belief limiting or blocking the manifestation. You may have shifted some on this belief but need to continue to shift.
• Sometimes you think you have a desire but that desire is reflective of your ego and not a heart felt desire.
• Your desire may involve co-creating with others. They have to align with what they want in order for both to manifest their desires. There is a synchronicity and timing involved.
• You may be too attached to the specifics of your desire so much so that you do not realize that the desire has manifested.
• You have not clearly defined your desire enough.
• Action steps are a process.
• Your manifestation may be in progress but you do not realize it. 

It is important to remember that the “how fast” is not important. That is not where your focus and attention needs to be. We will be discussing this on our blogtalkradio show. To hear the show please Click here

How Beliefs Can Affect your Life Part 2

Many of us are not always aware of our beliefs or may not even recognize that we do have a belief about something. We just do not take the time to think about it. To help you with this on a piece of paper write down your beliefs about these common areas of life: marriage, religion, money, health, work. You can add to this list as you so desire but this will get you stated.


As we discussed earlier most beliefs stem from a belief in lack of something or the separation of you from everything else that exists. To help you identify if your beliefs stem from with of these two core beliefs lets examine some common beliefs and trace it back. A belief about money that stems from a belief in lack may show up as “Money is the root of all evil” or “I don’t want to be rich because it ruins people lives”. You may have these beliefs because you have seen this happen to others and do not want it to happen to you. Now if you are struggling to pay your bills and desire money so that you can pay your bills can you see where these types of beliefs will limit your ability to manifest the money you desire? You are holding back what you could be manifesting because you do not want to be rich as you define it. The reason this stems from a belief in lack is because you believe you lack enough money to pay your bills. So on hand you believe you do not have enough money and on the other you desire money but then say “no” to it due to your beliefs. What other things in your life do you see as not having enough of? Happiness? Love? Opportunities? Do you have feelings that you are trapped? That would be due to belief that you have no or few opportunities, few options, and few choices. That there is lack of these things, that there is a limit.


A core belief in based in separation would show up in things like blame, control issues and mistrust. How many times have you said “He/She made me so angry” He/She made me sad. Anytime you see another as the source of your emotions it is because you see yourself as separate from them. You experience your own emotions, they are yours and no one can cause you to feel anything. You are the source of everything in your life. You do not see yourself as a whole complete being and that you are separate from that which you truly are.


Everything you desire resides with in you. It is not out there somewhere and all you have to do is pull it to you. Everything works from the inside to the outside. The Law of Attraction responds to the vibrations that you are sending.
In the last past of this discussion we will pull this all together so that you too will be able to expand and transform your life.

Tips for Manifesting with Intent

• Manifestations are your creations in form, your thoughts, your beliefs, your emotions in form. They are a reflection of you and what is going on inside of you.
• You are always manifesting something. This you can not turn off. Everything, every experience and all the “stuff” in your life you have manifested.
• You determine if the manifestations you have right now in this moment are what you desire or not. Ask yourself, is this pleasing to me? Do I prefer something else. Write down those things that are not pleasing or that you would prefer something else. On a separate sheet write down the ones that are pleasing and if you desire to experience more of them or not.
• Of the 2 sheets which one are you focusing, paying attention to more often? Meaning as you go through your days what are you thinking about, talking about more? This will help you see where you are putting your energies towards.
• Ask yourself, what am I acting on, what thoughts and beliefs are the basis for my actions?
• Take time to reflect on these questions and your answers.
• Ask yourself what thoughts am I having that are limiting or blocking me?
• Sometimes identifying blocks and limits can be tricky to indentify. You must be open and honest with yourself when asking these questions and in the answers you obtain. You will get your answer but sometimes it take time to appear.
• Journaling is a powerful tool. It helps you visually grasp an enhanced understanding of yourself.
• You know your thoughts, beliefs and emotions are in alignment with your desire as it will begin to take form.
• You know your thoughts, beliefs and emotions are not in alignment when something other than what you desire shows up.
• When something other than what you desire shows up it is a reminder, an indicator to tweak your thoughts, beliefs and emotions. This type of experience serves you in that way so you can redefine, strengthen, refocus or expand upon your desire.
• You can only do this for you. You can not manifest something for somebody else.

Things to Remember About the Law of Attraction

There are something’s about the Law of Attraction

you will want to be mindful about

when you are creating and manifesting with intent.

• First and foremost you do not “USE” the Law of Attraction to manifest what you want and then just turn it off until the next time you want to “USE” it. The LOA is always working so if you are turning it on and off or using it for something’s and not other things, what you are actually doing is manifesting with intent sometimes but not other times. The LOA is the mechanism so to speak of how something manifests. Be it a material item, an experience or something more esoterically in nature such as success, love, joy, health or happiness. The LOA is “HOW” these things manifest not the why.
• You do not attract things to you. You attract things because of you. The LOA operates at the level of vibrations. It responds to the vibrations you are sending whether intently or not. Everything has a vibration including thoughts, words, feelings, emotions, actions and beliefs. The LOA reflects back manifestations that are a match to the vibrations you send. These manifestations can and do take any form. They are the “what is” that is showing up in your life. We all have a range of vibrations and that is why so many different manifestations show up in our lives. Your emotions are how you know what vibrations you are sending.

• What you desire does not exist outside of yourself. You are not separate from anything that you desire. If you see that what you want is out there in the Universe somewhere and all you have to do is attract it to you like a magnet then you are seeing what you want as something outside of yourself. What you desire, anything that you can think of can be found by looking within. This is where you place your focus and attention.
• If you want to change your external world you must first change your internal world. Your external world, your reality is a reflection of what is going on inside of you. It is a reflection of your beliefs, your thoughts, your choices, your feelings, your emotions and you actions. Often we look at the outside world and those in it to give us validation of our self-worth or a confirmation of acceptance from others that you are liked or loved. All these things and so much more reside with in you.

Everything begins with you.

It is you that is creating and manifesting and experiencing.

You need to be mindful that the LOA is responding to you

and you can have it respond intentionally.
