Trust me, there is no resistance. I would love to have prosperity in my life and I deserve it as much as the next guy. It just isn't coming. I would do a rain dance right now if I thought it would change anything. |
Dave, I'm not sure how open you are about a dialogue. Perhaps you just came here to voice your decided opinion. And that's okay.
From your language, though, it seems that one of the previous posters has made a valid point: before worrying about LOA, you might want to explore the basic concept of personal responsibility. Forget the spirituality for a moment and really "get" that you are where you are right now because of your best thinking. You're where you are because this -- whatever "this" is -- is where you chose to be.
Either through action. Or inaction. Or decision. Or indecision. Or procrastination. Or setting goals. Or not setting goals. You are where you are right now because YOU chose this path.
If you can agree with that statement, you can move forward and find that LOA isn't about Esther Hicks or any other specific teacher or organization you may have a problem with or pre-conceived opinion about. The law of attraction simply says that you're responsible for your place in life in more than just what I covered in the paragraph above.
As for WHY you're struggling, it might not have anything to do with feeling like you don't deserve it. But "deservability" is not the only form of resistance that keeps people stuck in life.
There are lots of forms of resistance. For instance, some people believe that success should be triumphant. So, they manufacture dragons to slay and hurdles to jump and bills to pay. They believe success must come at a cost....so they're constantly paying a price.
Resistance takes many forms. It's not just about whether your deserve to be prosperous or not.
