Something dawned on me this morning that I want to share with you. I am excited about a visit from my nephew and niece next week who are coming to stay with us for quite a few weeks. They are 13 & 12 respectively and they are such wonderful kids! I found myself getting caught up in the idea of wanting to teach them so many things and "fix" the way they think about life.
Then I realized that there is nothing to fix! There is nothing wrong. It came to me that trying to fix the things in my life is a habitual way of how I think. And when I'm focused on trying to fix things, it brings me more things that I need to fix! That is a huge realization for me!
So my new intention and focus for what I would like to experience with Jonathan and Jessica is FUN! I intend for us to share a lot of fun, laughter and love during our time together! No problems... just good times :)
I'm bringing this up because I think you may also be focused in a manner that is keeping you in a pattern of circumstances that is less than pleasing to you.
There never is anything wrong... because nothing is permanent. There is no need to worry because we can change anything we want at any time. The reason we tend to panic and think that we are stuck is because we've been thinking the same patterns of thought for a long time which has continued to produce the same kinds of results for us. Which makes us think that we can't change. Well... we didn't know then what we know now.
It doesn't have to take a long time to change things. Now that you know or are acquiring this new knowledge of how your focused thought and corresponding emotions are your guide to whether or not you're moving towards or away from things that you want, it will take much less time to get the results you desire.
Everything just is... how we feel about it is what makes it good or bad. So maybe if we could shift our perceptions to that of appreciation for the contrast because of the clarity and expansion it brought us (about what we are focused on in that situation) our vibration would shift and so would the quality of things coming to us. Does that make sense to you?
You never know quite as clearly what you DO want until you know what you don't want. Life is always going to have contrasting situations that present themselves. It's how expansion happens. Without contrast we wouldn't grow and as energetic beings it is our purpose to expand (joyously I might add :) It's just the way it works. The universe would not be eternal if everything was not continually expanding.
The focus of this 30 day adventure is to raise our vibration so that we are attracting better quality circumstances (and contrasts) so that it's easier and easier to find the emotion of appreciation daily.
Do you agree?

Thank you for sharing today's insight Joanna. I do agree that changing my perception about "what is" or even “what may be” is how we arrive at more clarity and expansion. I’ve learned to rejoice in my contrast experiences because I know that contrast only teaches me more about what I really want and what really works for me. Thus I allow prosperity to enter my life on a higher level. I simply surrender!
ReplyDeleteFor the past two weeks the word "leverage" has been showing up for me in various ways even in your blog. It could be as a result of sending out the intention for financial freedom and abundance. However, on Day 5 your post was about levering our universal manager. I’m wondering if somehow I have been trying to do it all by myself. In the past two weeks I have been presented with opportunities for financial freedom. I’ve allowed myself to feel what is right and then flow with my decisions.
However, last night I was presented with another opportunity that requires my taking time off work, etc. Yet the potential for networking and opening up to abundance is incredible. So, I hardly slept last night and then woke up with a soar throat. Needless to say, fear kicked in.
This morning I am thinking about your levering my universal manager. Instead of asking, “how can I accomplish my goals?” I could ask, “please help me to feel what is the best action for take that will keep me in integrity and still bring me abundance. So, this will be my mantra for the next few days.
Thanks for sharing Mari... isn't it amazing how quick our body is to show us our thoughts are not serving us!?! Asking for help from the universe is one of the most helpful tools I've found. Hope it worked for you to feel what the best decision is for you.
ReplyDeleteLynda asked a few days ago about how to know when you're aligned with something or not and I think it would serve you well here too. If you feel good when you think about the outcome of the decision you're about to make... then it's a good choice to make. It's our doubtful or contradictory thoughts that cause our actions to spin off into something we don't appreciate.
It's the old saying... go with your gut. If there was no way to fail... what would you do?
