Aren't you glad to see me again?!

I have a very recent one. I've been participating in the LOA diy experiment and focused heavily on my relationship. Even though I haven't been great about doing all the exercises, I've definitely been noticing good things and mentally (hopefully vibrationally) asking for more of that. And when things I am not so fond of happen, I'm minimizing my reaction and focus on them so as not to attract more of the "bad."

To the point though, I've actaully had success. Things have progressed and I feel like I am getting what I want...not all of it yet, but certain instances have been clearly different than before. And my first reaction is, "something bad is bound to screw this up any minute." And also, "maybe I don't deserve this" and etc. I have a lot of other conflicting feelings around this, but I won't list them all .

I don't know if it's natural or if it's conditioned into us by old pain and insecurities or ingrained beliefs about "how the world works." But I think we have to be diligent about finding ourselves deserving so that we can allow even more abundance. It's beginning to become clear to me through this situation how much what we expect to happen, does.
