The club

We have been grousing that we can not make the people connections that we desire in our community.

Well, according to the Law of Attraction, I changed my attitude lately from one of focusing on what I want instead of what I don't want, or what I lack. As mentioned in an earlier post, the result is that I was presented with a local group that just formed with people searching for a better life - just like we are. So we joined. Stay tuned for a report on the first meeting.

I also stumbled upon a prior acquaintance that just happens to be in a business that pulls together people I am trying to meet to help vet a new business idea. Speaking of a new business idea, did I tell you about the internet site I found that exactly describes the type of business I want to create along with pros - cons and business models! How cool is that.

Self doubt in Orlando

Fell back into my old trap yesterday by caring too much about what other people may be thinking of me. This state of mind led to embarrassment and general self loathing. The good news is that I realized that I was doing it, and I worked to replace those thoughts of inadequacy with thoughts of love for my work and my perfection as source energy. I reminded myself that I am worthy and valuable and perfect just the way the universe made me and no amount of external stimuli will cause me to feel differently.

I then went back to my hotel room and google'd training on the Law of Attraction and found a group in my area that was just forming. Hmmmm. Interesting.

Attraction Observations

I'm learning that thoughts, are thoughts, are thoughts. They are vibrational energetic bursts that can bring you what you want, or what you don't want. Each thought sends out a request to reinforce it. The trick is to focus(thus think)about what you want. Not what you don't want.

At first, thinking of what you do want is hard work. We, or at least me, seem to have developed a pattern of easily thinking about the negative aspects of life, then trying to move past them with action that will physically create a positive difference. I don't know about the others, but physically working hard to rid my life of the areas of disappointment, my areas of pain, simply is not working.

My plan is to catch myself in a less than serving thought, and turn it around by thinking a thought that is the best possible thought I can have at the given moment. thinking positively, with intention for a positive outcome, should do the trick.

I'm also warming up to the following methodology for attaining what I want:

1. Ask
2. Answer
3. Allow

1. Asking is the positive thought part. The clearer I can be about what I want and the amount of time I spend thinking about that clear positive outcome will make the difference.

2. Answering is the job of the powers of the universe. Every thought I have is being answered. I must be ready for them.

3. Allowing is back to me again. Through my focus thoughts, I allow myself to accept (another "a" word. Hmmmmmm. Might me able to use that somewhere in here) the gift the universe is giving. Allowing means having clarity of what I want and appreciating it when it arrives (two more "a" words). I have to be the vibrational match for the gift. I can't have the negative vibrational elements coming from me and expect to have positive things happen for me.

Some early observations of putting intentions into the universe and seeing results:

1) wanting to start a business, but lacking partners. I focused on the need for technical assistance and proven business experience..both came to me wihtin 6 months time.

2) wanted a cookie during a recent flight, but was passed by by the flight attendant. without saying a word to my seat mate, a cookie was offered.

3) thinking about a past colleague produced an email from my friend with an invitation to catch up.

I'm excited to see what happens next.

Putting it out there

Struggling through life can take it's toll on a person. Especially when you feel you are working as hard as you can, yet the results you receive are not what you deserve.

This year I'm trying a different approach. I'm no longer going to live my life from a perspective of working to avoid what I don't what. Rather, I'm going to change my perspective and use my energy to create a reality of what I want.

This is a journal of my actions and the results. I expect a great year. I'm looking forward to recording it here.
