Your thoughts and feelings are engines that generate results. If you don’t like what you see, you can recreate something better.
What I’m about to tell you may be a game changer.
Let’s start with the law of attraction, like attracts like – when it works positively.
A skin care specialist visualized lots of people calling for appointments.
- Results? Shortly after, the receptionist reported that she booked several sessions for her – just as she asked for in her visualization.
However, she didn’t specify what kind of appointments.
- Results? One was for a bikini wax, and she really doesn’t like to give them.
Because of her busy schedule, the client couldn’t get a wax as soon as she wanted but made the appointment anyway. In the meantime, the visualizer mused about how she didn’t want to do the wax.
- Results? The client cancelled.
This is a classic case of cause and effect where thoughts become things, but your experience may differ.
So let’s get to what matters most to you. Why is your life happening the way it is?
Do you sometimes feel like you’re drowning and looking for a life saver?
Is this you?
I don’t know if I believe in this stuff. I tried it, and it didn’t work. I did everything right. I visualized, masterminded, had a positive attitude, created a vision board, and still no results.
Could it be that one part of you did “all the right things” and another part freaked out with anxiety? Were you feeling frustrated, angry, desperate, scared or doubtful?
Your world reflects what you predominantly think and feel.
If so, no need to worry. Neville Goddard in Your Faith Is Your Fortune wrote this:
“Just as a branch withers and dies if the sap of the vine ceases to flow towards it, so do things and qualities pass away if you take your attention from them; because your attention is the sap of life which sustains the expression of your life.”
When you fuss and fret, your attention is on what you don’t want. Instead, change your focus, including emotionally, to what you choose.
TIP: Don’t EXPECT results.
Say again. Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do?
Expecting results in a specific way is a booby trap, and you’re no boob. Here’s how it can foil your efforts.
When we mastermind, we ask for “this or something better.” Why? Because God, or if you’re more comfortable using the word the universe, may have a better way to bring results.
Energetic clinging repels results. Imagine a girl focused on finding a boyfriend. Guys sense this as dogs sense fear and run for the hills. Once she lets go of the search, there’s room for her dream to come true.
I’m an expert on expectation… not bringing me results.
I can trick myself into thinking I let go when I’m really WAITING FOR, aka EXPECTING, a result from a SPECIFIC source.
For example, in the past, while putting a group together, I expected my next event would fill it. If I had a financial goal, I expected a particular client would fulfill it.
I said I let it go, but I tried to control the outcome: I patiently relaxed to manifest my goals the way I expected. I knew how I thought it would happen. I took action to make it happen.
Here’s the telltale downside that I was in expectation. When it didn’t happen as expected, I got disappointed. Next came fear and my default program: Oh no, what am I going to do?
This started a vicious circle of expectation and disappointment which attracted more things that made me feel discouraged.
Now, I still hold events and have clients that could bring results. But, if they don’t, it’s called next. God will supply from other sources.
God is your supply.
Don’t expect your supply to come from a person, event or anything in particular. You are ALWAYS taken care of by God, but results often come differently than you think they SHOULD. Results come when you let go and let God. Allow the universe to bring your answers.
Feeling dejected, rejected or injected with fear is not trusting.
Trust is not giving up or moaning about what’s not working. These are childhood responses.
Instead, trust by ANTICIPATING RESULTS.
Anticipate your needs are fulfilled beyond your wildest expectations. Adopt a childlike curiosity of wonder instead of dictating an expectation.
It’s your job to:
- Make a choice.
- Pay attention to your nudges.
- Take action on what you’re inwardly guided to do.
Let God fill in the HOW and why and where and by whom.
Remember:
- Anticipate, don’t expect.
- Trust that a divine energy can and does manifest goals you choose or something better.
Don’t like your new creation? Don’t create a story about how you never get what you want, etc. Choose again.
When you anticipate the best, you change the way your life is happening.
