Have you ever wanted something so badly you could taste it?…Something that burned you up inside and consumed your every thought?…If you are so focused on getting something, wanting something, that it is driving you crazy and you can’t stop thinking about it, you may actually be pushing it away from you. Surprised?
When we cling tightly in our minds to the things we want, not only do we severely limit how the Universe can deliver them, we also keep ourselves in a perpetual state of want. This is NOT creative.
There is a lot said in Law of Attraction circles about visualization – picturing your desires in your mind with crystal clarity and focus. Define it, we say, and it will be yours…but there is a trick.
The trick is allowing, which is along the lines of being open to receive but is somewhat different. It means letting go of your desire, and knowing that it is coming. All of the lack-based thought mentioned above comes from the fear that you actually may NOT get the thing you desire; you question the Universe, or perhaps yourself, and your ability to create, or maybe even your own beliefs – wondering if you are being silly.
There is a huge difference in vibration between WANTING something badly, and defining what you want and feeling great about it. You need to create the feelings of already having it, so that the Universe can match you up with that. Thankfully, this is a skill that can be developed.
It may seem ironic that it is not until we let go of wanting something that we can have it. It makes perfect sense, however, when we put things in the perspective of vibration and the Universe’s response to that. For instance, if you are vibrating ‘Oh, I want that car soooo badly I can see it, taste it, smell it, feel it; why isn’t it HERE yet???’ you are actually attracting frustration, lack, and more of that state of WANT.
The Universe does not judge. It only responds. So if, instead, you are vibrating ‘That is my car. It feels sooo good driving it, and I am so happy to be finally enjoying this dream. Yaaaahhhooooooooooooo!!! Thanks, Universe!!’ — THAT is when the car will come. No questions about how it will come, or when…just letting go and trusting that it is here, and you know exactly the feel of it…and being grateful for the adventure.
Are you allowing your creations into your life, or pushing them away?
