I do believe it's important to get clarity on what you want because it then also defines what you're not willing to settle for. |
I'm afraid this will get lost in the shuffle of where this thread is heading but I wasn't saying what if you don't know what you really want. I'm talking about knowing exactly what you want, very clearly, but have no idea what actions to take and are held back from taking some actions by great fear.
Of course, I had a great biz meeting today for work that would fulfill most of what's on my list, so maybe I already have taken whatever action it was that brought me more in alignment with my intentions
As for those who don't get how the LOA works, it's really not about working hard to get what you want. Maybe a better way to describe it is having an intention for a specific kind of relationship and writing it down then joining a couple of dating websites and having the first person make you a favorite be just about everything on your list. Or having the intention that you will move into a house by X date and having your dad's neighbor mention to him that a house is available and it's just what you were looking for. Or having your spouse want a divorce and you are really committed to having your kid's parents live close together and then your next door neighbors move out a couple of weeks later so your spouse can move in next door. Or you are committed to working from home doing something you love that will give you enough money to expand you current tiny business and the first job that you see on Craigslist turns out to be with someone who will not only hire you to work for her but also wants to help you with your business and market your products.
Those are 4 things that happened to me in the last 4 years (actually, 3 of them happened in the last 7 months). There's dozens of other similar ones.
Hm, maybe I've answered my own question. The hard part about the LoA for me is that you never see it in action until it's happened. You just keep intending, sending it to the universe and heading in that general direction and suddenly you find that it's happened. For me it's becoming more about really trusting it's going to happen enough to remember to include important things in my intentions (like specifying that there be 2 bathrooms in the dream house, lol!)
