law of attraction: responsibility

TO CONTROL…OR TO ALLOW…THAT IS THE QUESTION

For many people who are exploring the achievement of their dreams or goals through the Law of Attraction, one of the biggest struggles seems to arise from, “do I SET time frames” OR “do I ALLOW things to happen?”

Our traditional planning processes are quite explicit about setting a date and time for what we want to see happen, and that, we should also, set dates and times for the steps that will be milestones along the way.

BUT IS THIS THE BEST WAY TO ACHIEVE ALL OUR DREAMS?

One could argue, of course it is…otherwise, how would the athlete be ready for the big competition?…how would the bride be walking down the aisle?…or how would the student be prepared for the big exam?

I work with many people who are engaged in achieving business goals. They tell me that setting a quarterly volume, or activity or a performance goal, can sometimes be more stressful than it is motivating for them. They tell me when they first set the goal, they are excited and optimistic. But if the goal is not achieved, especially, if they fall short of the mark quarter after quarter, they begin to be reluctant to set a new goal. They do not know why it is not working out as they expected. They stress about it and their performance deteriorates even more.

Energy follows thought and emotion.

DOES IT RAISE OR LOWER YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS?

I also have others who tell me they just held a vision of what they wanted to achieve and soon they were inspired by the exciting things that occurred to move them in the direction of their goal. They tucked their goal away in the back of their minds,  just knowing it would happen, but not stressing against it. Before they knew it, the goal they wanted had manifested.

WHAT IF YOU DON’T KNOW… WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW?

What I have learned after almost a decade of practicing the principles of Attraction, is there are some things for which I set dates and times, and others I do not. If I am doing a seminar, of course, we all need to know the date and time, or I would arrive and there would be no one there!

But I no longer sit down and make a schedule for the locations and dates where I want to do sessions. Instead,  I hold an image in my mind of how busy I want to be, and then I have FAITH and TRUST something will come up that will direct me to where I am supposed to be.

Since I have stopped trying to control everything, my outcomes have been much more inspired.

If there is a universal knowledge or wisdom about which I have no understanding, why would I attempt to work against it? Lets say I decide I want to deliver a seminar in Vancouver in April…but what if there are circumstances lining up that would create an opportunity for me to participate in an equally or even more exciting location…maybe I get a chance to deliver a session in Australia!

Instead, I visualize possible places I would like to be, then I trust this thought process, or encoding, will set the wheels in motion as long as I am attentive, open and positive about the outcomes.

It may happen immediately, because things are aligned and ready for me to be in that place at that time…or it may not happen for months or even years. However, when I look back on it, I realize it could not possibly have happened sooner. Some things needed to be put in place before it could occur.

Sometimes it is because I needed to make some personal changes before it could occur. If I have put time frames on some of these things, I would have become frustrated and perhaps dropped my dream completely.

FAITH AND TRUST

It is such a fine line between… sitting back and letting my life be other-directed…and, being in the energy flow of my dreams. This is not an easy concept to intellectually grasp, but once you have FELT the difference, you will know explicitly what is meant.

I suggest you try it…set out a dream for yourself, then trust the right things will be brought to you to manifest your dream. Look at a business goal you have previously had a time limit on. Instead, hold the dream and let it happen when things are ready for it to happen. You may be pleasantly surprised to find you were able to accomplish it in less time that you had previously set!

As you go about your day, you will be open to possibilities. When you act on those possibilities, you will delight in the richness of the experience. This is very different from a traditional, linear, planning and executing model for achievement.

BUT IT IS INCREDIBLY EXHILARATING AND ABUNDANT…IT WILL BE MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER HAVE CONCEIVED ON YOUR OWN!
