I’d read self-help books since the late 90’s but it wasn’t until I watched this film and read the book of the same name in 2010 I got it.
So if I got it why do I some times need a huge reminder to get it?
A long time ago I acknowledged if I saw something 3 times it was the Universe trying to get me to sit up and take notice so why oh why wasn’t I getting this message?
Plain and simple = Arrogance !!
Last week a like minded friend came round and we discussed books etc and the book “The Secret” came up. I’d recommended this book to so many people in and after 2010 when it came into my awareness but hadn’t thought or spoke of it in a long time.
I have habit of watching motivational material on YouTube and yesterday on ‘recommended’ the first thing that came up was the full length movie “The Secret”.
And today there is was again and I’d like to say it was the third time round trick that got my awareness ……. nah, in my head I was saying “I don’t need to watch that, I know all that. I’ve watched it read it years ago. I’ve moved on” but the Universe had other plans.
I swear I clicked off it to move on to another ‘Recommended’ that caught my eye however the film started playing any how and I am so glad it did.
Sometimes it seems we have to just get over our arrogance and say “Hey, why not. Let’s give this a rerun and see what it can teach us or remind us a second, third or even fourth time around”
What it the Universe trying to knock you over the head with that you are ignoring ? xx 🙂
I mean’t to share this the day after my last post but ooops ….. it will make more sense if that post is read first.
Yesterday I blogged for the first time in weeks and in a way I could relate to the great man. My Hero, Wayne W. Dyer because the words just fell out of me and I felt so inspired because I was having such an amazing day.
Later in the evening I saw Forrest Gump was on TV.
Now I know that it is an incredible movie and I have probably watched it more times than any other movie but it was only last night that I realised because Forrest was innocent without any expectations he was on ‘The Path of Least Resistance’ and he allowed one incredible opportunity after another flow into his life.
Just after I had this realisation there was the scene where Lieutenant Dan pulls Forrest off the bed and tells him everyone has a destiny.
I know it’s fiction and Forrest didn’t teach Elvis his dance or inspire John Lennon to write the best song ever written (in my opinion) but these scenes were clever examples of how the Universe works.
“Imagine” what possibilities could be available to us if we were all just like Forrest Gump and got out of our way and stop trying to make it happen and let it all unfold perfectly.
What Path? The Path of Least resistance. I am living proof.
So my blog is titled Law of Attraction Lover and that I am and while I believe its premise I am by no means full proof or have it all sorted.
It makes sense to me that we are non-physical having a physical experience but some times the physical part of me forgets about the non-physical and panics. Fear sets in and anxiety rises in my belly however during 2017 I have witnessed (thankfully) my list of anxieties decreasing exponentially.
There were times that I read and listened to LOA material over and over again and wondered would I ever get it?
Love him or loath him and I have blogged about him several times I have been an advocate of Conor McGregor since I saw him in the Ultimate Fighter and I even blogged about the accidental event when I clicked on a youtube video of Conor discussing his practices in LOA and here is a man living proof if used correctly what can be achieved but the more Conor achieved the more I felt when I am going to get this. Am I going to get this?
This short video above explains perfectly why I wasn’t getting it. I actually listened to this video in my bedroom last Monday morning whilst getting ready for my day.
If you have read some of my posts you’ll know that I adopted a habit of someone who I admire “Ali Brown” and listened to YouTube video’s on my commute. What I haven’t got around to blogging about and why my huge absence in recent months from blogging is that I manifested a business for myself and now work from home so I have transferred my habit of YouTube in the car to YouTube in my bedroom whilst getting dressed and coiffured.
This business opportunity alone is evidence why the “Path of Least Resistance” is the only way and the most pleasurable way but thats a post for maybe another time.
Listening to this video showed me how I was blocking my own path to what I desired so last Monday while I had a couple niggles giving me slight anxiety I made the decision – “Just for today I let it all go. Stop trying to make it all happen and trust” I then became playful with my desires and as I walked around I aff’d (my way of saying I said affirmations to myself) I said thank you. Thank for …. Thank you for …… Saying thank you for my deepest desires as they were already here and what happened?
No1. My Faith in there manifestation went through the roof and No. 2 I had the most profitable day in my business (and most profitable week) since I started in March.
This created a wave of pleasure that I started ride and then other things happened.
It wasn’t stress free but when I found myself becoming anxious I was able to acknowledge “Whoa, this ain’t getting you anywhere sister” and draw back and do or think about something else.
Case in point I was working on a clients product and it wasn’t working and I had a deadline. On the second failed attempt I acknowledged my stress and took myself out of the situation and no word of a lie while I was washing at the sink a voice told me how to solve my problem and the product was completed effortlessly.
This experience stuck with me and then I was able to relax about other items near to deadline and remind myself it all we be ok. It always is.
I said earlier my reasons to be anxious have reduced dramatically and I was down to two. Both involved the same situation so on Sunday evening as I went to sleep I asked for help on these matters and the following morning a comment was made that caused a conversation that solved one of the problems effortlessly creating confidence that the other cause of anxiety would alleviate itself when the time was right and today it did so the moral of this is …. watch the video above if you haven’t already. Ask for help and then move on. Just have fun and think about things that make you happy and then you open the door to allow everything to arrive effortlessly on the Path of Least resistance.
I had a habit of listening to inspiring information on my commute to work that I adopted from Ali Brown and made 21st century as Ali’s version was listening to Anthony Robbins cassettes via a walkman on the subway and mine was listening to YouTube video’s via the app on my smart phone.
Now that I work from home I am still listening to inspiring video’s but on my smart TV whilst dressing in the morning and this was one I was listening to the other day.
I love anything Michael. His voice is like hot chocolate sauce on your soul but this video I especially loved and it had an exercise in it that I stopped what I was doing to practice it. In the exercise your are asking questions of what the Universe is trying to express through you and my answers were as follows.
1. Love everyone
2. Practice tolerance
3. Bless everyone and everything that tests that tolerance
So every time I found myself making a judgement of any one or thing, however simple in my head and sometimes verbally I would say “Bless you”. Bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you.
Ok it did feel a little forced but it also helped me a) feel better and b) highlight how many judgements I make randomly without even realising it when I already think I am a loving, tolerant person.
What instigated this blog post was that in light of recent events I was finding a neighbour challenging. They have been knocking on my door daily as they are chasing the status of replacement item for their house.
My partner is a self employed trades person and our neighbour has adopted him as their personal handyman and knocked at our door randomly late on Sunday evening explaining that an item in their home has a slightly rusty fitting. It’s not broken, they just want it replaced for aesthetic reasons but they keep knocking everyday asking if he has sourced the part and when he is going to fit it.
I keep telling them that he is very busy and he is working daily away from town and when he returns the merchants is closed but he is trying his best but it falls on death ears and to them their whole world appears to revolving around this item and they keep knocking very anxiously.
They are not a client, he never asked to be their self appointed handyman but that doesn’t stop them acting like they are his number one priority yesterday when they knocked and I watched them walk away and then turned to reenter my home slightly bewildered that people have been mercilessly killed and families have lost loved ones and to my neighbour this is their number one priority in the world I found myself saying “Bless Her!”
I stopped in my tracks. I just blessed her subconsciously and didn’t have to remember or force myself to say it. It just happened naturally.
I liked that it came naturally. I like that appears to be becoming a habit and then I wondered is this situation the Universe testing me and my ability to be more tolerant and loving?
If this is the case the Universe also likes to joke as the same person that I am writing about just knocked on my door at 08:30am in the morning to ask if my partner is coming to fit the item tonight and I tried to tell them he is working very later tonight and can’t see them fitting it as when they finally get home they will feel done in and ready for their evening meal but they have asked to take my number so they can call me later to check just in case he is coming to fit it they will make sure they are home. Instead of getting frustrated I smiled and guess what ….. I blessed her.
Blessing people feels so much better in my soul than getting annoyed.
I felt compelled to pick up a Dr Wayne Dyer book up the other day and read it randomly (but there is no random in the Universe) and what I read was astounding but that is another blog post but it reminds us what loving people can do to the world and what being negative does to us. So I am blessing the blessing.
Like most of us I thought the world had gone crazy on November 8th 2016.
I know it wasn’t perfect before November the 8th but I was loving the way the world was moving towards more equality and more loving and just more conscious.
So when I woke up on that fateful morning I hoped I was still asleep and it was all a horrible nightmare.
Luckily around the same time I was going through a stressful personal period and know enough now in my own consciousness to use tools to assist me to get through testing times and lucky for me indirectly the material I was listening to and reading was also the perfect material to help me through the media exposure that seems impossible to avoid.
I’m not a News watcher a Newspaper reader (understanding that it is peddled to manipulate our minds into negative, fearful, hateful opinions) but I am a Facebook follower and TV watcher so it is hard to be the Ostrich I try to be around negativity and to avoid even slight snippets of what is going on in the world today.
Two books I was reading were Wayne Dyer’s “You’ll See it When You Believe It” and Marianne Williamson’s “A Return to Love”. Thankfully Wayne reminded me that what we focus on expands, not dissipate. Regardless if it makes us feel good or bad and I am far from perfect ‘physically’ and have seen and heard things that feel abhorrent to me personally and causes a physical sensation in my stomach. As I said a combination of tools aimed at other areas assisted me with these sensations.
And one of those is a Dr Joe Dispenza Meditation I downloaded after completing his book “Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself” and in the meditation it has an exercise to notice when a familiar unpleasant feeling reoccurs you say the word “CHANGE” so being reminded by Wayne that if I get angry at these ‘apparent’ abhorrent actions all I am doing is exasperating the situation not eliminating it I haven’t participated in many of the actions I have seen taking place around the world. Instead I mentally have been stepping back, taking a deep breath then saying “CHANGE” to the feeling in my belly and then focusing on the person or thing that ‘so called’ created the unpleasant sensation to arise and then send it or them LOVE.
Marianne explicitly explained in her book how when someone acted in her life in a way that created immense anger in her she repeatedly said she forgave them and released them to the Holy Spirit and then Marianne details how this situation played out in a highly positive effective way and just reading it created a positive feeling in me so I have implemented this in my own life and the results have created exponential changes that I have seen magnify daily.
You may have noticed that I have placed certain words in a semicolon and that is because non-physically I have been reminded we are ALL perfect and this helps when sending love to the physical version of someone I feel upsets me or created a sensation in me by their actions. Amongst all this info it advised – imagine someone as a baby if you have trouble forgiving them because babies are perfect and it is hard to think of them being imperfect or doing something abhorrent and know when I act out unloving physically I am perfect non-physically and my unloving, fearful acts are gifts to me in the sense they are highlighting areas in my physicality that I still need to work on.
Early on in this post I wrote I was going through a difficult situation personally and I know enough now that there is something wrong in my thinking somewhere that attracted this so delved in harder than normal to work on this area, fed up of creating the same patterns over and over again throughout my life.
The perfect materials have constantly turned up and continue to turn up at the perfect time for my personal life and for what is going on in the wider world and some material I have never heard before or have read but never digested the true meaning and another word I highlighted was apparent because I truly grasped the fact that everything is happening just as it should be all the time even when it feels the opposite because it is painful or uncomfortable.
It may not make sense that something so terrible is happening but we may never know what the true purpose behind it is until a lot later if at all but how many times have we read people’s lives have changed because of a tragedy that completely changed their thinking or gave their lives true purpose or set them off on a mission to help others so other people didn’t have to suffer the same fate.
How many times have we heard those stories after positive experiences?
Taking this on board I have been able to take a step back mentally and remind myself I don’t know why this is really happening and everything is always perfect and then bless the situation.
The last two words I highlighted were ‘so called‘ because I accidentally came across two new people recently and one is Marisa Peer. You may have heard of Marisa and her work but Marisa had never crossed my awareness until a week ago and have watched several video’s on YouTube and have created new daily rituals because of it and in one Marisa explains how to deal with things that people say that could hurt you and describes it as ‘letting it in’ or rather advises not to ‘let it in’. This reminded me people can’t hurt us unless we let them. We have a choice to let their actions affect us or not.
Finally the other gem I have fallen upon accidentally is Christie Marie Sheldon and Christie explains how she can see energy blocks within us around various things but the things I have watched are mostly around blocks in receiving abundance. I mentioned earlier fed up of the same situations arising I decided to ‘Go hard or Go home’ on my difficult situations and maybe because my desire was more amplified than ever before I have come across more assistance and I am now grateful to the situation because it highlighted areas I still needed to work on and I am informed once you truly work on an area and solve it, it can’t return so hence my new philosophy to not judge anything just LOVE it.
And in Tribute to this and the fact that I went to an excellent Exhibition at the V&A Museum in London recently called Revolution and physically saw hand written lyrics by John Lennon and Paul McCartney and suits from Sargent Pepper and the Jacket worn by John Lennon on his ‘Imagine’ promo remember –
The other day I was feeling a little off focus, disconnected and I knew I needed to charge my spiritual battery.
With this acknowledgement where do I go? What do I do?
One of the quickest, easiest ways I have found just to start making myself feel better is Pam Grout’s blog. Easily and effortlessly Pam has the ability to remind me how great this Universe is but on this day with at least 3 posts to catch up on, it felt like Pam was posting just for me. These posts were more profound than a quick shot of happy adrenalin.
Sometimes Pam posts examples of the emails she receives from people thanking her and telling her of the amazing things that have happened to them following reading Pam’s books and acting on the advise and one of them made me think that’s the next step to charge this my physical battery …. get some shape action or in other words reread Pam’s books.
In amongst the blogs and what I reread within a few hours I was reminded by Pam that in our human physicality we ALL, regardless of how phenomenal we think someone is who seems to have it all going on get wrapped up in our 5 senses and let doubt, worry and fear grab us by the delicate areas and shake us around.
This is what led me to the place of realising I needing to take things to a higher level. Something happened to me and I let myself become completely overwhelmed by fear.
What I also realised whilst reading Pam was all the magnificent information that I had highlighted and then completely forgot about. Pam said it herself that even she goes all 5 senses now and again and has to keep working daily to put herself first and remind herself of the power we have at our disposal 24/7. She described it like training a puppy not to pee on your slippers. You have to take it outside and show it all the incredible unlimited magnificence of the Universe it has at it’s disposal.
That’s when it struck me. I need daily reminders to go beyond the 5. It’s not a one time underline and forget situation. If I really want to rock my physical world with joy, happiness and abundance and remember the non-physical assistance I (WE ALL) have at our disposal literally every second of our waking and non-waking time space continuum I need to puppy (toilet) train my brain.
I have a digital journal running on an app I use called Evernote that I can access on any device and syncs to all my other devices so at the start of each day I have made a tick list of things I aim to do that day. I know I can be a little control freak on myself and then probably give myself a mental kicking if I feel I have failed to achieve something so I have created a balance for myself buy accepting that I am not going to tick all the boxes in one day so what doesn’t get ticked gets deleted for that day but I still have a track record of what I have achieved that put me and my personal happiness at the top of the tree.
The ticks are things like read something inspirational for at least 30 minutes, listen to a pod cast, meditate, read my goal cards, yoga, write things I am grateful for.
The list is evolving all the time because if I think of something that maybe beneficial but acknowledge I will probably forget to do it I add it to the list. The other evening I watched a Facebook Live with Anita Moorjani and Anita reminded us that the most important purpose in our lives is to love ourselves and when we think of an opportunity we didn’t take etc we probably berate ourselves but we should love ourselves. I had been thinking a lot what if’s recently but because of Anita’s words I have been loving myself. Not a habit I wanted to get out of so on the list it went.
I was listening to a YouTube video the other day with Bob Proctor ‘You Were Born Rich’ number 4 (amazing) where he discussed writing down what you really want and meditating on it and reading it everyday. I am guilty of doing that ages ago and now forgetting where I wrote it so I wrote a new expanded version and placed it at the top of my daily electronic journal and copied and pasted it in to all the other subsequent days for the months and will transfer it when I get to January 2017 which is already made up as it was one of my tasks to do the other day.
If I have something bespoke to do that day that isn’t on the generic tick list I place it under the heading Actions and these actions are in red. When I have achieved the action I change it to black and at the end of the day for what ever reason I couldn’t get it done and it was still red I just cut and paste it for the next day as a reminder.
I may listen to an interesting Podcast hands free whilst driving but not the next day so delete podcast but I may listen to Bob Proctor whilst shaving my legs and getting dressed instead. I most definitely read something inspirational for at least 30 minutes most days and everything seems to have some beneficial takeaway and I have become far more productive and happier and less fearful from my brain Training. I even wrote 2 chapters in a book I have been writing for a while that hasn’t happened in months so I was buzzing.
I could go on forever with all the other things I feel I have learnt or achieved since creating my list but I’m going now to tick ‘Blog Post’ something else I haven’t done in ages until I put it on the list 🙂
I am so grateful for ever word I have ever digested in the books that I have read because they have taught me any outcome outside of me does not define me. I define me. You define you.
We are all connected energy but we are also individuals with the power to create our own Universes.
Each day, each minute, everything second is an opportunity to create your own Joyous Universe regardless of external results and that is exactly what I am doing right now.
As Abraham calls it “I Am launching rockets of desire”. Seeing something you do not find pleasurable is an opportunity to stop and think about a thing you do want and then go do fun things to raise your vibration to enhance the opportunity of that desired outcome coming into your Universe.
You don’t get the result you do want by focusing on the result you don’t want. All you are doing is attracting the thing you least desire into your Universe.
And here’s the good thing I learnt from Abraham. Anything you do that you find fun raises your vibration. It doesn’t even have to be related to the outcome you desire.
So maybe if today you found the results weren’t as you hoped make a list of the fun things you like doing and aim to tick at least 3 off the list and while you are at it make a list of the things you are grateful for like the fact you woke up this morning and your eyes opened and you could see your beautiful children or your lungs were working and you can breathe in sweet air or hear birds singing, smell the coffee, have electricity to make the coffee, have a hot shower etc
And just to start off the good feelings try typing in Laughing Babies into YouTube as see how you feel after that and here’s one to start you off 🙂
