One of the biggest barriers to harnessing the power of the law of attraction with the ease in which we are supposed to, is all the resistance to our current reality, all the resistance to what we worry will happen in the future, all the things we don’t want to happen. Breaking down this resistance is key to receiving.
Podcast #76: Law of Attraction: To Receive One Thing You Must Be Willing to Receive Everything
Hi Kelli,
Today I caught myself saying and thinking: I don’t want this, I want that! Why am I having to deal with this when I’m focusing on that?!
Cue your podcast. De-resistance mode reactivated. When you say this LOA thing is a constant process of learning and re-learning, you were totally on point.
Thanks for such timely wisdom. Hope you have a lovely holiday season!
Hi Jan
Thanks for your comment and I am glad the podcast was timely for you. It really is a ‘journey’ with no endpoint and we are going to constantly be coming up against limiting beliefs, fears and the like as we set our sights on different things. Making peace with that is a huge help in this process. It’s all good no matter what.
Hi Kelli,
You say that you are supposed to be ok with the bad things that happen because it is not likely to happen. It has happened and continues to happen and I was not focusing on it originally. Now, with “others” deliberately creating more bad things (am I drawing them in? They are attacking me thru my children?) and me being open to receiving the bad to get the good – the bad is winning and the good is not happening because the good would counter the bad.
Hi Michele
One important thing to remember is we don’t necessarily attract things based solely on our thoughts but rather our predominant beliefs and feelings. So we may not have gave much conscious thought to a particular experience but if we look beyond it to how it feels, what beliefs it is making ‘true’ to our mind, we will find that there was some strong energy there, even if we weren’t necessarily conscious of it. And as for what I said about being okay with unwanted situations in that particular context I was referring to things we often worry will happen in the future and we have a lot of resistance against, and we ‘try’ really hard to manifesting something so we can hopefully avoid those things. No matter what we are experiencing now, fighting against it will always be the more painful road–this doesn’t mean ‘accepting’ it or making the best of it, or trying to put a positive spin on something that we dislike, or thinking this is the cards we have been dealt and we have to suck it up. It is more about deliberately choosing to focus on our desired outcomes, knowing whatever is happening now doesn’t have to stay that way. As for other people, we can’t control them or make them do or not do things–we have to do the inner work on ourselves and that will lend itself to changing the dynamic of the relationships in our lives, whether these people go away, change their behavior towards us,the relationship gets mended, etc…
