Default A Shower Moment...

The title sounds dirty, but it's really not...
(I'm not sure of where this came from, but this may be for my own benefit, a conversation of thoughts with myself, if you will, shared with you all, if you all even exist )


O.k. So I had an epiphany in the shower (yes, I get great thoughts in the shower) after a hard day of yard work... The thought was this: "What it really boils down to is, just simply REALIZING that you CAN manifest anything that you desire. The mere fact of realizing this NEW ABILITY OF YOURS will allow you to do just that..." whether you think you can or can't either way you are right...

Following this train of thought went like this, look at all the things you REALIZE you THINK you can't do or manifest, If I could only REALIZE that I can do or have these things, I would... If you can do something, it's what...? Easy, yes that's right, Easy. Why is it easy...? Because you KNOW you can do it... When you first started your job, you didn't think you can't do it. You may have thought this is hard and I don't understand (only because I haven't learned it yet), but once I learn it, it'll be easy... Right...?

So, Let's move this train of thought over to using or understanding Intention Manifestation (I/M)... First, let me explain what I've come to think I/M is... I/M is the act of sending out an intention through thoughts and feelings (since I seem to be emotionally challenged sometimes and lean more toward the intellectual side, I use primarily thoughts), and allowing these thoughts and feelings to manifest into my reality for me to experience and enjoy... This should require No effort on my part as if I'm allowing the reality I see through my eyes to realign itself to present the intention into my reality. Some suggest I'm already doing this, perhaps this is true and I don't even realize it...

So what's stopping me from doing this on a regular basis (consciously) or more appropriately creating a better reality...? Is it because I think I can't or it's not possible or because I've never really done anything like this before, I mean I am talking about interacting with reality to change the things to something more suitable to my liking...

What if I could realize that I'm already doing these things every second of every day...? If this is true, how am I doing it...? Have I allowed others to generate a reality for me, can I create a reality where there is no such things as war or poverty, only abundance where money doesn't exist and illness is is only a fantasy...

Am I even ready for the next step in understanding and take control of my life... Is it a matter of just REALIZING that I already do control my own life and just don't REALIZE it yet...? If life is just a dream, I need to be dreaming of some better schtuff... Perhaps, the cause of my frustration is the way I'm feeling about it all and this is what I'm creating...? [/end frustration]

Please share your thoughts, opinions, and/or criticisms...

I think as we stay focused on applying IM, bit by bit resistance fades away. Overcoming years of conditioning doesn't seem to go away over-night, but as we become more aware of our own power, it's like seeing everything for the first time.

Just now during meditation (I'm doing the "wouldn't it be nice?" exercises), I suddenly saw "acting as if" in a new way. Like, I just have to realize, or expect that what I want is going to show up, and behave as if it's already there. Not that it's tomorrow, but that it's now. That was a big a-ha for me.

In essence that's exactly what we talk about here anyway... yet I perceived it in a new way. I guess it means your previous beliefs aren't clouding your NEW beliefs as much, and at that point, you really are starting life over.

I'm glad you do because once I put it in words I start to lose it. It made more sense in my brain.
