On Friday, I performed a rather mundane, usual task for me: picking up food for my family at a little burger dive. My mother, who lives with us, usually just gets a cheeseburger. This time, however, she decided she wanted the fish and chips. As I was waiting in my car in line, I looked at the big menu. $7.50? $7.50! $7.50! The cheeseburger is just $3.00. What is she thinking? (Well, she doesn't know.) We have 5 people to feed. And on and on and on. I really don't want to reactivate my first thoughts (I can feel it happening!), so I will stop there. I just wanted to give you an idea of what those thoughts were and how they felt.
Then I noticed how I felt as I was sitting there fuming about my mother's huge extravagance. Not good. Tight. Constricted. And, as I searched for new thoughts, a little relieved. What were the new thoughts? First, "She doesn't know this costs double." Second, "This is silly. We can certainly afford this." Third, "Why shouldn't she have what she wants?" And better and better.
I've been working on the abundance thing for a while. I sometimes get tripped up because I'm also the family bean counter. So, to a certain extent, I have to watch the dollars. (It got kinda bad when no one was watching 'em fly around.) But I don't have to watch 'em feelin' like that. And really, I imagine there is a future for us with feelings so abundant and in tune that the money can fly around and it will all work out beautifully. (See, just got myself to an even better feeling thought!) I think the watching of the dollars helped me feel abundant for a while. By this I mean, planning a budget and tracking every little thing in financial software. Because I had a plan, I KNEW it would work out. It made me feel better. And then I got to feeling constricted about the plan. So, I had to back off on it a little. It's a work in progress.
The point is, whatever your issue, it's an ongoing process. Being conscious of your feelings in the small moments can really helpful in identifying where you're at, and making a change for the better.
Fish and chips for everyone! (Hey, is this getting biblical?)

Celebration of Results: New Business?
The reason I was so scattered this morning to the point of not even posting my daily focus was that I was focused on something else entirely!
As you may know if you read this blog regularly, I have been planning on offering law of attraction coaching. For some reason, I have not gotten it going yet. Well, I was out of town last weekend. That makes it tougher. There are a few things I need to get together in order to offer it. I just have not felt called to get them together. So I haven't. (If anyone out there is dying for my law of attraction consulting services, let me know, and I'll light a fire under my own butt.) So anyway, the fire under my own butt right now seems to be burning very dimly, so it hasn't been happening.
In the past couple days I received an email from a new company that was recently born. I quite literally just got swept away with reading all their materials and sending them the introductory email required to get the process started. It is quite possibly a very exciting opportunity, including many of the things I enjoy about my current job, but so much more. It is not only an opportunity to make money, but also to make a difference in the world in a way that really, really makes sense to me. I tend to look for that in a job. Aquarius, I guess.
Funny thing is, I kept opening up Money and the Law of Attraction from Abraham-Hicks to a certain point that talks just about that: if you want a new opportunity, focus on the things in your current employ that you really appreciate. Although some fear that will get you stuck in your current employ, it is not the case. It just raises your vibration and brings you more of what you do want.
And then this opportunity just dropped into my lap.
And then I felt very drawn to researching it and getting my stuff together. Fast.
And then I responded to by the company. Fast.
And I also received more confirmation from the universe. Pretty fast.
So, it's exciting and I'm moving forward on it. Obviously, I'm being vague right now. If and when I am committed, I'll no doubt share more of the details here.
However, I thought it interesting as a result of things I'd been manifesting. And also explains why the coaching here hasn't been really flying yet.
I truly believe, all in good time.
I follow my instincts.
I act on inspiration.
It's all very exciting.

Abraham and the Current Financial Climate
Hey all,
I just found this video yesterday where Abraham responds to Jerry Hicks' question about the current financial climate. It is very timely. I think it's pretty cute how Abraham sorta teases Jerry and surprises him, even after all of these years. Check it out.

I have what I want when I want.

It's just as easy to create a castle as it is to create a button. (Abraham)
I am focusing on my abundance today.
(I had such great results with focusing on my husband taking care of me, I thought it was worth a shot!)
Ha ha. Ok, that was a joke, but we can see that I have some resistance. Which is why the abundance has not flowed as much as I would like. Somehow, I don't truly believe it. Let's talk it up.
Ok. I have all that stuff I just mentioned. I really AM abundant. I really DO believe in the law of attraction. I see it All. The. Time. I have a whole freakin' blog about it. I have entry after entry detailing how I've used the law of attraction to get what I really want. What is it I'm working on creating with abundance?
Freedom. I want freedom. My choice is do what I want when I want. Have what I want when I want. I have been practicing that. What, specifically, is the abundance I am thinking? Because, I really am very abundant already. So, it is the freedom to choose to work when I want to and not work when I don't want to. It is the freedom to choose to get, be, or have whatever I want simply on the basis of the fact that I want it. Now. Money will give me that. I welcome money. It can come to me in a myriad of ways. Right now, I make money while I sleep even. Passive income. This is what I choose. Passive income.
Right now, I like my job. I would just like more freedom and more money. I am happy in what I do. I don't have a huge problem with it. I really just want more freedom and more money. And the more money is really just to get more freedom.
Freedom to have what I want when I want it.
Freedom to do what I want when I want.
I am actually really darn close to this when I think about it.
I don't really mind going to work. It's ok. Usually I rather like it. I rather like my schedule. Often. So there, I have already created something I love. I have created a schedule that mostly works for me. Now I just want to have even MORE control over that schedule.
As we can see, I have a lot of great abundance. I am really doing well here. Now I just want more. I have so much. Give me more. Ok, feeling a little resistance. (little truth here). It is ok to want more. There is plenty for everyone. It is good to want more. When I have more I will have more to give. To myself and others. I will create wonderful things with more. This is an incredibly abundant universe. My wanting and having more is a great thing for everyone. More more more. It is ok to want more. I can have more and still live simply. Oh, that's a good one. I can have more and give more to others. I can be a conduit of MORE goodness when I have more.
Ok, I feel pretty good about this.

Ok, I will go one level deeper. I think I am very comfortable where I am at. I can feel good about it. More. More. More is kinda hard for me. It goes against some deep beliefs I have about being a good person. About not buying in to the American ideal of overdoing it. What I have to tell myself is, "I will still be the same person with more. I will do good things with more. As I said before, I can live simply with more." I will be generous with more. I will be wise with more. I will do good things with more. I will be happy with more. I will be comfortable with more. I will be in control of myself with more. I will manage my more simply and with honor. More is ok. More is good.

It doesn't have to be stuff. It can be more help. I am always welcoming more help. I can give that more help more money. I can have more experiences. I can give others more experiences. More does not have to be excess. More can be exactly what I want when I want it. When I give in to the more that I want I am happy. When I give in to the more that I want I am in balance. I help balance the universe. It is balanced. It is flow. I allow. Shutting myself off from the more creates resistance. Allowing the more, the tangible and the intangible, is allowing my well-being.
Wow, I like that one.
Allowing the more, the tangible and the intangible, is allowing my well-being.
My husband will do well with more. My children will do well with more. My home will be a comforting beacon with more. My friends will do well with more. People I have not met yet and may never meet will benefit from my more. We are wise. We have honor. We will treat the more with wisdom, reverence, and honor.

More wisdom
More reverence

More more more is feeling better!
This feels so good. This is the work I am meant to do. It is my next step. More money, more freedom, more perfect work. I am always stepping into my perfect work. It is fun to watch. It is exhilarating. My next step is a deeper, richer experience. My next step is better than I would have thought possible. My next step is filled with joy and satisfaction. My next step is filled with ease and comfort. My next step is filled with all good things. And it comes from more more more. And it is more more more. And it brings more more more than I could ever imagine. And I am imagining it now. And it is so good.
Thank you!
