I received a utube link that I wanted to let you all know about.  It is actually a really cool exercise from Margaret Lynch.    The video is about people skills/interactions so don’t worry about the title of the clip.   I was quite happy with the results from doing the exercise…it was a brilliant exercise.

The video is about 5mins (not a long time at all).  I can’t really say much more about it without giving away an important aspect of it.  What I can say is that you  need to follow what Margaret states ….”stop the video and do the exercise”.  So please please don’t watch the whole video and then do the exercise as it just won’t be the same.  She will ask you to do a bit of writing…(it took me about 3mins) during the video and tell you when to ‘pause’ the video clip.

It is a valuable exercise so have a pen and paper ready or a word document open if you prefer to type.  Again it won’t take a lot of your time and I’m sure you will have some kind of reaction with your results.

PS:  Don’t read the comments section….because you might work it out and that too can lessen the impact from doing the exercise.

Well I was curious to see what were the main topics members on the site wanted to read about so I did a quick poll (just a basic Talley)  and the findings really had me quite surprised, mainly about how far apart the top ‘interest’ and the lowest ‘interest’  were on the polls and HOW the top cannot function without the lowest.  You will have to look at the poll to see for yourself.

The number 1 interest was Law of Attraction.

2 – Ask and receive and Healing.

3 -Meditation.

4 -Intuition, EFT -emotional freedom technique/tapping and Manifestation.

5 – Quantum Jumping and Heart Meditation.

6 – Prayer.

7- Beliefs.

I was astounded at how the Law of Attraction (LOA) was number 1 but Beliefs was right at the bottom because the Law of Attraction can not be effective until you have a complete understanding of your belief system and how what you believe impacts on how your life plays out.   I’d say number 6 – Prayer (regardless of whether you are religious or not) is quite similar to Beliefs…it is all about faith really and trusting in a higher power, trusting that their really is a universe that wants to give you exactly what you ask for, knowing you are not alone in the world and are part of a bigger picture, getting into a habit of asking because you trust you are being heard – yet it is also near the bottom of the poll.

Of course the poll is bias’.  It is only a collective view because a member could have chosen Law of Attraction and beliefs as their interest.  But seeing it in the order above has made me think deeply about what I should write about next.    I was actually planning to write about ‘intuition’ before doing the poll.    If you can’t work out what your gut is trying to show or tell you…If you can’t or don’t know how to get in contact with your ‘higher self’ that will only have your highest interests at heart – then I think everything else becomes a difficult task or journey.  I mean every choice you have made up to now…has led to opportunities or strife depending on whether you payed attention to your instincts.

I totally get though how ‘beliefs/prayer’ is at the bottom of the poll since it is much easier to want to use the LOA and a hell of lot harder to work on your belief system.   The belief I’m referring to is about ‘worthiness’.  It’s not about whether you believe in the Law of Attraction, whether you believe that if you ask for this and that it will come to you somehow. It is much deeper than that.  It’s how much do you believe in your worth.  How much do you love yourself? Are you lovable? Just take a look around you and see what has manifested for you.  Are you in a loving relationship, do you have wonderful friendships, do others treat you with love and respect?

The Law of attraction is already working for you, and works for you continuously whether you believe it or not.    What you have attracted into your life comes from ‘worthiness’ beliefs.    Love, relationships, money and career it all comes back to your beliefs.  Your belief is actually an energy or turns into energy…you can have lightness type energy around you or dense type energy where things are negative, your tired all the time and so on.  I guess beliefs also comes down to intuition…how willing are you to pay attention to your higher self when it tells you to go down a certain path.  What if…by paying attention it led you to happiness, the right career, a new love, and so on.  Sometimes what your intuition guides you to do can totally go against your beliefs.  But if you just tried it…listening to your higher self….could your world open up to more opportunities for you?

It may seem that working on your ‘intuition’ is a short cut when you should work on dealing with your  ’beliefs’.  I think it is a short cut.  It’s like, how can you become a more positive type person?…well you could do some counselling, do some past healing work on you etc…they are all important things that you should deft  do yet if you just started hanging out with 1 positive person (short -cut), half the healing has already taken place.   I mean when you think about it….would you rather spend the next month with a counselor or hanging out with people even if just one person who is just a bundle of laughs.  I can already see which of the two will lighten one’s energy right away.   It goes back to that old saying ‘act as if’.

So when it comes to ‘beliefs’.  I think the main issue is having an ‘awareness’ of what your beliefs really are.  When you discover your true ‘beliefs’…(one way is by looking at the various aspects of your life..love, money – what’s there and what’s missing etc) half the job is done.  Just ‘getting it’ your beliefs makes you understand your behavior,  choices and decisions etc and thus you DO start to make changes.  Like Panache says…there is nothing wrong with you, you don’t need fixing, just accept!   But you have to ‘get’ what it is you are accepting.  You need to discover your ‘core beliefs’ at this time in your life, then you can go ‘a- ha, wow really, I hadn’t realized .  Then you can start on acceptance and then take steps in whatever direction you want to go.

So I am going to get on to writing about the Law of attraction as it is at the top of the poll and I’m going to write about beliefs and intuition too.    I spent a month purposely using my intuition with surprising results and will share with you what came about as soon as I finish writing it.

Everyone is always manifesting…the law of attraction brings to you and your life what ever you put out  in the world…emotionally, mentally and physically.  What you put out in the world comes back to what you truly believe in.    For instance…if you’ve been working on manifesting a million bucks and it hasn’t arrived it’s because you don’t believe in what you are asking for.  Maybe because you actually believe you are not worth a million bucks, maybe its because you don’t actually believe that a million bucks will make you happy for a variety of reasons….such as you would have to share it with your family, people would just hang out with you so they can use you, you may just lose it all on stupid decisions.    So ‘belief’ can be a tricky thing to understand because you may be totally unaware of them.

There are many wonderful guru’s, spiritual speakers out there.  I have learnt many things from all of them that have had a  positive impact on my spiritual self-development journey.  Christie Marie Sheldon has to be there…at the top of the list followed by Rikka Zimmerman.

I have found that listening to Christie’s meditation has made things happen extremely fast…I was quite shocked how quickly opportunities appeared and problems resolved.  Time wise I’m speaking within days…that fast!   I also need to mention that sometimes what you ask for comes to you but not as you may think it would or should appear.  So if you ask for something to happen be aware that it may not come as expected.   For instance…I asked for my family to become closer, soon afterwards I started to become annoyed that family members that I barely see or speak with suddenly started turning up at my door.  I was annoyed because they should of called first etc.  Then I realised….wait a minute!  I asked to become closer with family.  It didn’t happen the way I assumed it would, such as one of them calling and making plans for dinner somewhere etc.    Another example job wise, a total stranger came up to me on the street as he mistook me for someone else.  Anyway he asked if I was interested in  work or knew of anyone interested in work –  now I expected to get work via applying for jobs via websites, newspaper etc but not someone coming to me on the street lol.  I have asked for the best job for me – money, my skills and personality wise.  I want a job that’s basically right for me.  The results have been interesting…I have been getting jobs for positions I never would have thought of applying for or actually didn’t apply for – but that’s what has showed up.  I took these jobs…all of them contract work and found I enjoyed the job/s thoroughly and met interesting people that are more on my wavelength.

I swear by Christie, her stuff works and very fast!  With Christie’s meditation’s etc (you can also find her on utube) you quickly learn how to find opportunity when it knocks on your door and GRAB it regardless of what you fear.  For instance out of the blue I got a call from a company that had a position I had wanted for a while.  I wasn’t expecting a call from them, so when they asked me if I wanted the position and could start the next day, I thought about how I wasn’t ready and said ‘no’…even though they said all resources would be supplied.   I was happy with my decision as I felt I wouldn’t have enough time to prepare for the job.  The next day I kicked  myself for not realizing  opportunity had knocked and I turned it down because it hadn’t appeared as I would have expected it to.  I had asked for this position and it arrived and I didn’t see it.      I asked for this position or similar again using Christie’s meditation….and about a month after, I actually met the person that took the position lol I said ‘no’ to because I thought I wasn’t ready.    We were both standing at the bus stop waiting for transport and struck up a conversation.   Our conversation lead to what we do for a living etc and yep she told me about how the company had called her and offered her the position I turned down.  She also told me that there was another similar position opening up soon and that I should hand in my resume or call them before they start advertising.   I knew, that meeting her was no coincidence and this was opportunity and the universe answering my question and helping me manifest.

So I guess I’ve learnt a lot about how I miss opportunities and usually based on some kind of fear such as thinking I’m not prepared enough.  I’ve also learnt how to notice opportunity and how it may come in various ways and at unexpected times.   Lastly I’ve learnt about ‘GRABBING’ opportunity when it comes to you.  I used to think that you are suppose to prepare so that when opportunity comes you can grab it.  Now! I’m not so sure, maybe regardless of whether you think you are ready – all you are suppose to do is ‘Grab it’.   The universe will take care of the rest in various ways such as people who can help you and so on.   Also opportunity is plenty and always comes around when you ASK for them and then be aware when it arrives.  So there is lost opportunities but it doesn’t matter because there will always be more opportunities available.

Well you can click here to experience Christie for yourself…she has some free gifts at that link to give you a taste of what she is all about.  In regards to Rikka – her website has freebies on it including some seminars that you can download and begin using right away – I highly recommend them.  Rikka is also fantastic and I found results quickly using her stuff.  I just prefer Christie.  Both people are great though.
