Vibrate Your Desire

Several weeks ago, I listened to an interview between Denise Coates and Steve Pavlina.  Steve tells his story about how he began deliberately working with the law of attraction.  It had to do with finding coins wherever he went.  It sounded like fun to me, so I suggested that we make it a game in the Feel It Real forum.  It was named Curious Intenders.

The idea is that you start by intending to attract a penny and let it go!  You do not need to think about it again!  You will find the penny in a curious way!  Once you do, you can intend to find a nickel then a dime then a quarter.  Just keep working your way up.  In the last three weeks, I’ve attracted approximately 50 cents in change, and today, I found my first dollar bill on the ground!  I am keeping all of my “found” money in a mug that says “Future Millionaire” on it to remind me that I am filling my millionaire cup.  Whenever I find money, I think “I’m getting closer to becoming a millionaire.”  The universe doesn’t care how much money is in the cup.  I don’t add up what is in the cup.  I just keep thinking “I am getting closer.”  The only thing that matters is that I believe it!

Here is what is so great about this game.  Most of us are not attached to finding a penny or coins or even a dollar bill.  Easy…. Right?  What usually stops us from manifesting large sums of money is that our belief level doesn’t match our wanting.  With this game, you are starting a path where you can believe and see money coming in all the time.  The universe will respond to your feeling that money is coming to you every day.  And, you will not believe how exciting it is to find a penny when you’ve intended it!  In your excitement, just keep telling the universe… more, more, more!  If you do what I am doing, putting it in a millionaire mug or jar, you will see your fund growing.  You can even envision your cup or jar being nearly full no matter how much money is in it!

Since I started playing the game, I won $100.00 on scratch off lottery tickets, I received several cash gifts, I received a couple of free services that I wanted, and I received a gift of make-up items and a pair of shoes!  I also received several smaller items.  This is just what I can remember.

Just keep in mind this is supposed to be fun!  I didn’t start looking to attract other things.  Attraction just happens when you have an open pathway.  Do it purely for the fun, and you will begin to see the fringe benefits of playing a little game like this one!  It wouldn’t surprise me if your business started to attract more customers or you receive a pay raise or bonus.  Anything you’ve been wanting can come through when you’ve opened up a way.

Play and have fun!

Pretend for a moment that you could change the circumstances of  your physical world as quickly as a screen in a movie.  In order for you to see what’s on the screen, you would hit a button and take a look.  At all other times, you are in total and complete darkness.

Now, close your eyes and pretend for a moment that there are no external circumstances whatsoever in your world.  You are in that place of total darkness.  You have a clean slate starting right now.  While your eyes are closed, listen to what you are thinking about and what is the overall feeling that you carry?  After you’ve listened and sensed your overall feeling tone, think about how what you are thinking and feeling might translate into physical tangible items and experience.

If you were to open your eyes and take a look at the screen, what do you expect you would see?  Would you be happy with what you have created?  If not, close your eyes again.  Turn your attention to your thoughts and feelings.  What would you adjust?  How could you make it better?  What if there were no external circumstances at all.  There is only this world you are aware of when your eyes are closed.  How would you live there?  What would your world look like and feel like?  What would your relationships be like?  How much money would you have?  What kind of home do you live in and where is it located?  What kind of clothes do you wear? What are your favorite activities?

I hope you just had a big moment of realization as I did as I wrote this article.  Can you see that without the existence of external circumstances, we would let our imaginations soar and live an amazing life filled with everything we love.

As soon as we add the external circumstances, it gets messy.  In our attempt to deal with problematic external circumstances, we spend our imagination and feeling time on everything but the amazing life we really desire!

How much time do you spend in this internal space imagining and feeling your life just as it already exists?  When you think about your home, do you think about your current home?  When you think about money, do you think about the money you now have and the same regular money coming in?  Do you think about your relationships as they usually go?

In order to use the law of attraction consciously, become a frequent visitor to this internal space.  Let that amazing life of your dreams come alive as much as you can.  Little by little, your new life will find its way into your external reality.

Have you been watching all of the press on Michael Jackson’s life and death?  I don‘t think anyone would disagree with the fact that for the majority of his life, he was a tremendous role model for what it means to be in the flow.  He demonstrated for us what it looks like to be a master creator.  Everyone that has spoken on his behalf talked about how he knew what he wanted, and he most often got it.  He was a master of focus.

I am left wondering how many people, if given the chance, would choose to live in his shoes.  He is a person who was blessed enough to live the highest of highs and perhaps the lowest of lows.  The question is would you take the lows if you knew you would get to experience the highs?

What are we more afraid of in life?  Are we more afraid to live a life where we never experience success and flow?  Or, are we more afraid to live a life where we experience the greatest levels of success and contribution and perhaps also meet with so called failures?

What do you think Michael Jackson would say now?  Despite the problems of Michael’s life, he left his mark on the world.  He showed us both sides of what can happen when you get your vibration moving at rapid speeds.  Do you think his journey was worth the pitfalls that he experienced later?

I, for one, think his journey was incredibly worthwhile!  Without brave people like Michael, we would never know what is possible.  I feel blessed to have seen what it looks like when creative energy runs unrestricted through a human being.

It doesn’t matter what is going on in your life right now.  If you can dream, you can create new circumstances.  I always say that the law of attraction is not something new.  It is simply a law we are working with more consciously.  The reason I mention that is because I want to point out that you already know how to use it.  If you think about your life, any time you have gone from one set of circumstances to another, you were employing the law of attraction.

Did you get bad grades in school and then find yourself graduating with honors?

Have you been totally without money and then in an instant something happened to change your financial situation?

We all have a story.  If we were to have a conversation, we could tell each other at least one story about the way we were versus the way we are now.  Have you ever thought about what changed inside of you that caused you to be who you are now today.   If you really think about it, you can pinpoint the thoughts or decisions that you made on the inside that lead to a change in your physical circumstances.

This process of pinpointing the thought and decision is the process of matching your desire vibrationally.  This is the work so to speak.  What makes it difficult is that you don’t know what you don’t know.  For some desires, you have to be willing to walk in the dark for as long as it takes to see light.  It isn’t that your desire isn’t manifesting.  It’s just that there is something in your thoughts and feelings that is out of sync with the truth of the universe.  It’s just that it isn’t manifesting quickly enough for you.  When you are walking through the dark hallway on the way to your manifestation, you have to be open to seeing things differently.  This is the time to pay attention to what people are saying to you and listening closely to your thoughts and ideas.  If you can walk down that dark hallway in faith that all things that are happening are taking you to your desire, you will absolutely find yourself manifesting your dream.  Just keep in mind that being out of alignment with your desire means you have to change some thoughts that are not working for you given where you want to go.

The difference in the past versus the present is that we are now aware that the law of attraction is working.  So, don’t be tempted to think it isn’t working for you if you haven’t manifested your desire.  Can you think of something you’ve done in the past that didn’t quite turn out the way you had hoped.  Maybe it’s something you made with your hands or something you fixed.  You kept working at it and working at it until eventually it was just the way you wanted it to be.  Learning to use the law of attraction is the same process only the “working at it” part is happening in the realm of thoughts and feelings.  You are a musician searching for the right musical notes to go with the lyrics.  You keep playing with it until you find the right combination of keys and notes.  Don’t give up on the song if it isn’t perfect right away.

Be willing to walk in darkness for a time in pursuit of your dream!  Sure, you might bump into some walls, trip a few times, and skin your knees.  People might even laugh at you and tell you that you will fail or that you are crazy.  Don’t concern yourself with what anyone else sees as impossible!  If you do, you have handed over your wallet to them.  Your dreams are your value in life!  Don’t leave your dreams sitting on a shelf.  Let them come alive in your mind.  If you keep them in mind through whatever darkness, you will find the sweet reward of light.
