Decisions Then Action…
Have you ever set those New Year’s resolutions that after a week or two fall by the way side? What truly makes the difference between those that succeed and those that don’t? This year has been different for me. I believe that is because of the work I have been doing around the Law of Attraction and the Law of Allowing. I can see the changes I want to happen so clearly in my mind that they are manifesting in my life. One of my goals has always been (after having 3 kids) is to get back into phenomenal shape. One of my motivators currently is a trip to France in March visit my daughter. The other is to turn heads when I wear a bathing suit. Those have never been enough before however, because I could not visualize as clearly as I can today. Since Jan 20th I have been watching my diet like I have in the past and have broken through the blocks that have kept me above a certain weight for more than 15 years. The feeling of achievment is wonderful. The better I feel the faster the pounds seem to melt off. That being said it has also generated the desire to stay physically fit as well. So I have now incorporated yoga, cardio and weights into my daily regime.
Since the weight has been coming off the reactions of other people have been interesting. Comments about “You don’t want to get too thin” or “You don’t need to lose weight” make me laugh now because I realize that their comments are based on the fact that they have not been able to achieve what I am doing. My weight loss is not a criticism of them, merely something I have become passionate about and because of that am seeing results that I have never seen before. The comments used to bother me before because i took them personally. With the personal growth I have been doing, I accept that my reality is different than theirs and that I no longer have the desire to please them. What is most important is the personal guidance of my emotions… if I feel good then I will attract more of the same.
Speed of Abundance…
The emails rolled in at an amazing rate. I was shocked how fast it all happened. I have lots of new customers as well as new prospective business associates. Luckily my systems were in place and I was able to respond personally to everyone that emailed me.
That got me to thinking, if the power of the mind can create things so quickly why don’t people harness it more often. Like most viewers I watched the Secret and thought, “Isn’t this great?” I did what they talked about for awhile and then I stopped. The real secret to the Secret is taking action along with the belief that things will turn out the way you want them to.
Abraham talks about the Law of Allowing and that we constantly are creating. So if things don’t change for us, it is because we continue to create the same old things. What we feel we deserve causes us to sometimes sabotage our best laid plans. Unfortunately, see that in myself on a daily basis. So from today on, I am going to make a concerted effort to mediate and visualize twice a day for 20 min.
In the past when I have meditated regularly I’ve noticed and increase in my intuitive ability and life really does flow more easily. If my last experience with expecting abundance is any indication, this month promises a whirlwind ride!
Manifesting…
This week has been extremely interesting. Speaking with friend the other day I mentioned that I have been focusing on manifesting an easy and profitable business. I said “I want people to come to me, I want it to be fun and easy.” That was Wednesday morning… Thursday afternoon the emails started to roll in requesting samples from my free sample page. I called my friend excitedly saying there were over 300 requests. Amazed, you bet! Both of us were. Today, just a few days later I have had over 1400 emails from people intersted in my products. I have had orders from people as far north as Nunavut and from coast to coast. I am excited to see what the next few weeks will bring.
Law of Attraction…
The law of Attraction states that we draw to us those circumstances and things that best decribe our thoughts and feelings at the time.
Thoughts Have Energy!
Entertain for a moment the idea that thoughts have energy. If thoughts do have energy, is it possible that they can cause a ripple effect, changing the people around you? Have you noticed that around people who are energized, excited and enjoying life, often the energy is contagious!
I remember a time when my 17 year old daughter and I were not getting along well and some of the thoughts I had about her at that time were not at all motherly or loving. I’ve often wondered how much I contributed to the problem with my attitude. Of course I was courteous in her presence however those teen years can be horrendous so, for awhile, we did not speak much. I couldn’t imagine I had ever given birth to this “person”!
Then one day when I was at my wits end with her, I walked into my bedroom. Angry, hurt and not sure where to go or what to do, I saw a picture someone had placed on the end of my bed. It was a picture of my little girl when she was about 4 years old. White blonde hair, big blue eyes and tanned skin, she smiled up at me from the picture. I had forgotten that the person living in my house was this beautiful child that I loved so much. My heart softened and I started to cry.
At that moment I realized I really needed an attitude adjustment. I made an effort to see her through new eyes, to see her as that beautiful baby I loved so very much! The amazing thing was that as the days passed and as I treated her with love, the relationship came back. Miraculously, I did nothing else other than change the thoughts I had about her.
We all know that the teen years can be so difficult and the self esteem in which they hold themselves can be so fragile. What they truly need from us as parents, is the love and encouragement we needed at that age too. The time with them is so short that every effort we make in their behalf is truly worth the effort.
