[Acting Like Godot]

I realise that this statement of mine:

It is simply a fact that I "do that all the time" - that is, I regularly get or achieve what I want, just by thinking about it.

So here I go again. Older forummers, please bear with me. I won't rehash my older stuff - even though some of those older examples are really exciting - for today, I'll just list examples that have occurred in the past 3.5 months, of intentions manifesting without any action on my part:

1. This is very recent - 13 March 2008. At lunchtime, I close my eyes and manifest for a new career option. By evening, a search firm calls me and asks me to explore a new job opportunity. I know nothing about this search firm; I did not apply for any job; I do not know how the search firm came to know about me.

2. This is also recent. I am thinking of some old friends; there is one in particular whom I want to have lunch with, but I have not met him for about half a year. I visualise his face; swirl him around in my mind's eye; and think "LUNCH". Two days later, at lunchtime, I bump into him at the train station. (In fact, he normally does not take the train at all - but his car had broken down that day).

3. This one is not so clearly documented on my blog, because it took place over a course of a few months. I guess this post + this post gives the best summary.

In a nutshell, my wife kept changing her mind about what she wants to do with her career. First she wanted to quit, then she wanted to work, then she wanted to work part-time, then she wanted to work part-time but with another company, then she wanted to work full-time with her current complany but from home, etc etc.

I tried to manifest for her what she wanted. But she changed her mind so many times that I had to redo the manifestations again and again. Very fickle woman I have, for a wife. Finally, I gave up and I manifested the following intention:

"That the company just give my wife absolutely whatever she wants."

A week later, the company comes to her and asks her to draft her own employment contract and put whatever terms and conditions she wants.

She asked to work two days less per week, and still be paid the same pay. Additionally she just asked for an extra 2.5 months bonus to be paid immediately (that represents more than $20,000 for her); this is in addition to the bonus that she had already been paid for 2007.

They agreed.

4. My mother and my wife had some relationship problems - they were not on speaking terms for months. In early March, I suddenly had this idea of casting a magickal spell to repair their relationship. (Magick is the new angle I'm exploring with LOA - I only started in late Feb 2008; wrote about that on this forum too).

Suddenly things became alright. I never said anything to either of them, about each other. But now my wife wants to take my parents out to dinner, and just now my mother called, and she didn't want to speak to me, and instead she spent half an hour chatting on the phone with my wife.

5. This is one of my biggest ones ever - it happened last month. I manifested $244,200 in one lump sum, under extremely impossible-looking circumstances. I'd written about this one previously on the forum too.

6. Here is another example of a bad relationship between two people, which I repaired by casting a spell. I never said a thing to either of them about how they should behave towards each other, but suddenly they became good friends, and one even told me that she really appreciates the other one now.

7. This is another rapid manifestation. I manifested for more money on 4th February, and the next day (5th Feb), my ex-boss unexpectedly calls me up and says, would I like to rejoin the organisation, he can offer me a salary increase.

8. This is another cute one, happened in January this year. I manifested for money, the next day it came out of the blue - $12,000.

9. This one relates to my kids. I manifested the intention for them to learn art. Two weeks later, someone sticks a poster at our apartment block (at a spot where posters are never stuck) advertising a nearby art class for kids that had just started. We signed them up.

10. In December 2007, I set the intention to find out how to eat more healthily. A week later, an almost total stranger unexpectedly gives my wife a brand new (and expensive) book on nutrition, and she gives it to me.

Well, on the topic of intentions manifesting without any action on the thinker's part, that's all the personal examples I have for the past 3.5 months.

(I actually do have other examples. For instance I intend for wisdom, joy and peace to enter my life, and almost immediately, for the rest of the day, I feel wiser, more joyful and more peaceful. But this kind of account won't convince the non-believers, so I haven't bothered to supply the links.)
