Those familiar with the Law of Attraction know how straightforward the deliberate creation process is: Like attracts like, so get in vibrational harmony with what you want, and let it in. Seems simple. Yet virtually everyone who practices it runs into at least a few hiccups. Here are the top seven mistakes we make in manifesting our dreams: 1. Focusing on what you DONT want Hands down this is the most common mistake my clients make. Seems obvious, and yet its a subtle distinction between thinking about what you want versus what you dont want. Even the word want itself can trip you up, as for some people it has a connotation of lack or being without. Be aware of the words you use and the images it creates in your mind. 2. Giving attention to the obstacles Sometimes it seems as if our brains are hard-wired to automatically recount all the reasons we cant have what we want. This is where you build your brain muscle to get in the habit of refusing to entertain any facts or truths as to why your desire wont appear. (With rare exception, there are no hard and fast rules in this Universe other than the ones you believe in.) Thinking about reasons you wont get what you want keeps those obstacles strong and powerful. Let go of any thoughts that stand between you and what it is you want. 3. Noticing you still dont have it The determining factors in how quickly you receive what youre asking for are 1) how much you want it and 2) how easily youre allowing it (a function of wanting and believing). Any time you note your desire still hasnt appeared, youre creating resistance which keeps it from showing up. Again, this is focusing on what you dont want. Instead, when you find yourself noticing you still dont have it, know its on its way and will soon be here. Remind yourself youre a master creator who manifests whatever you choose. Its just a matter of time! 4. Letting limiting beliefs stand in the way Limiting beliefs can be tricky because were usually not consciously aware of them. If youre doing everything right and still dont have what you want, its time to look at your limiting beliefs. Its easy enough to want financial prosperity or the body of a supermodel, but if deep down you think rich people are whats wrong with this country or that you inherited fat genes from moms side of the family, youre holding beliefs contrary to what youre manifesting. Those beliefs, if strong enough, will keep you from getting what you want. Do some soul-searching to get a handle on your core beliefs. Just becoming aware of a false belief is often all it takes for it to dissipate. To speed up the process, you can also reprogram yourself with supportive beliefs. 5. Not believing its yours Many of us live in a perpetual state of wanting. The key to manifesting is to believe this thing you want is already yours. Live it, breathe it, and feel it as if you already have it. That puts you in vibrational alignment with your desire, allowing it to appear effortlessly. 6. Ignoring your (inspired) call to action When youre properly aligned with what you want, youll see evidence of it accumulating and may feel inspired to take certain actions. Listen to your intuition, follow your hunches, and take action that feels good. Its common for overachievers to make themselves busy in taking steps they believe are required to manifest their desire, but only inspired action is helpful. Frantic activity will introduce resistance and slow down the process. 7. Not feeling good If youve got something that consistently brings you down, whether its your job, your health, your spouse, etc., youre running a vibration that makes it difficult for the Universe to deliver good things. One of the best things you can do to get what you want is start taking steps to deliberately feel good. Youll be amazed how things come together when you start eliminating what youre tolerating in life and start feeling better. It doesnt necessarily mean you need to turn your life upside down (although that works too), but you can also choose to change the way you feel about things. Above all, remember this is fun! Creating what you want is magical, joyful and a huge trip to boot! |
