Looked to my left where all the mince was, and sure enough plenty of organic mince. Looked back straight in front of me, and there they were, organic steaks right there in front of me all the time.
I'm not sure if this is manifestation The steaks were there the whole time. But maybe these things we manifest ARE there the whole time, we just have to see them? |
ReallyGoodIdeas--maybe what you were intending was that you would FIND some organic steaks, and so you did!

The multiple choice turned out to be easy, and I even managed to invent a method for solving the projectile motion problem. I may not have done it in an orthodox way, but I managed to get answers, which certainly satisfies me.
Thanks, intentions, and thanks for inspiring me, Ati! |
Congrats, Pooka!
(Yesterday morning just before awakening, I had a dream that I received a letter in the mail saying "Congratulations, you have achieved 100% (on the examination I recently took)." Now, when I was in various types of schooling/training, I did get 100% from time to time, but on a 480 question (or so) standardized national exam, that's probably pretty unheard of. My dream reaction was, "oh, this is just some sort of spam (mixing up postal and internet mail in my dream ), that can't possibly be real, it's in the format of this type of exam result report and 100% isn't realistic" Then when I woke up, I thought, well OK, all I need for this thing is to pass it which means 70%. So, I'll take that dream as a positive omen that I passed it 100% (it's either 100% or 0% for this deal anyway, pass or fail). So, hopefully, my waking mind reversed my dream mind and turned the negative attraction of "this (good news) can't possibly be real" into a positive attraction. I'll take all the good luck anyone wishes to send me

Then the genie struck. A long, long time ago I had pretty much decided that the universe was like a genie, giving you what you ask for, with a negative twist. I had not contemplated the genie when manifesting the $10k. Sure enough about a week later I was approached twice about loaning money (one was a non-profit to make payroll, the other was a great friend going through a tiny rough patch). $11k out the window because I was the kind of guy who just had $10k lying around.
How can I gete rid of this genie/universe set up I created? |
ClassicDiner--How about framing ann intention which includes both the manifestation of abundance and consistent positive outcome from the abundance that you manifest? It would be neat to see that on our intentions sticky
Also, I wonder if you attract the "lying around" part of what you have in resources, as a negative attribute (a careless attitude, lack of purpose, lack of meaning), whether that just stimulates you to attract situations that fix that problem? Could it be that it was a real positive thing that you were able to help out your friend and the nonprofit? There is a line of thinking that tells us that the more we give away the more that comes back around to us....

The problem had gone when I actually went to deal with it. |
Great deal, demk! Waiting for anger to pass (while you are sorting out your thinking (and crafting a good applicable intention to address the problem (taking a nice deep breath while doing so (and thereby clearing your mind and oxygenating your body))))) seems a real wise move to me....
All best,
