I’m wondering how often we are given exactly what we asked for only didn’t realize it because it came wrapped in different paper.
The past 3 weeks have been pretty powerful ones for me and I have been seeing a lot of intentions manifest in my daily life.
It’s totally cool.
First, and I’ve mentioned this before, but there is no “secret” to manifesting goals or dreams.
It takes more than a vision board and a few Red Bull to get beachfront property and a supermodel girlfriend.
I will say, that what I have noticed is that when your true purpose is in alignment with what you say, do and focus on-magic happens.
It really does.
Getting all those things in alignment?
Ah, that’s the work!
For me, the biggest realization is that, more often than not, you either have what you are asking for, or when you get it, you don’t even notice.
We tend to put conditions on things.
If we ask for an influx of $1500 we may have made up our minds that it will come by landing “New Mr. Giant Client A” and be so devestated when we don’t that we ignore the 5 steady new little clients that each came in at $500 each (even MORE than we asked for).
We may want more quiet time but be so upset when plans fall through with a friend leaving us with nothing to do one weekend.
I subscribe to “Notes from the Universe” and I have to say-it’s awesome. Such a wonderful way to get out positive messages into the world and to remind us we are already living our dreams.
LOVE IT!
Anyway, here was today’s message:
“Considering your grandest and most glorious dreams, Michele:
When your thoughts and visualizations pertain to the “hows” (how they will come true), or when they include an insistence upon unimportant details (virtually all details are unimportant; think of them, yes, but just don’t attach to them), or when they require specific people to behave in specific ways… at the very best, your efforts will only increase the likelihood of your desired dream coming to pass.
Whereas, when your grandest and most glorious dreams are BIG-picture items, like rocking abundance, total fulfillment, amazing health, vivacious happiness, and the like, the floodgates of success begin to powerfully tremble and your manifestation becomes inevitable.
Hark… a tremor I do detect…”
I think that might be the problem.
I spend so much time getting bogged down in the, “well how is THIS going to turn into THAT” or “if I want THIS by THAT date then I have to do THIS NOW”
Then, when something that is my dream shows up I walk right past it with a disregarded wave of the hand and a, “sorry you weren’t supposed to show up until Tuesday.”
Then I sit in my sorrows on Tuesday when nothing happens.
There is so much magic around us.
So much creative spark.
I have always felt I couldn’t call myself a writer if I didn’t have a book to hand someone with a “and who should I make this out to?” wink and a nod.
Why aren’t I a writer?
Here I sit, writing.
Look, I’m doing more of it…haha write, write,….
Um, ok, enough of that but you get my point right?
Stop waiting for the marquee to light up and say “woohoo you did it!! You arrived!!”
You already arrived!
This is it. This moment, right here, now.
Look around. Your dream has it’s hand on your shoulder and is right there.
Just look.
