Start of 30-Day Experiment-Amazing

[delias]

Hi everyone,
I went and watched some Abraham hicks stuff on you-tube not long ago. It is challenging not to doubt so I decided to try an experiment. I have been trying and making a real effort each day to intend certain things for the day. I have to say that so far the results have been very encouraging. In fact I'm 90% sure I somehow got some 'extra' free cash out of an atm on monday. Only 120 was taken out of my account, but I had at least an extra $80 to $100 of twenty dollar bills in my wallet after taking cash out, and I only had one twenty (2 to be safe in case I missed it) before I took money out. So that was interesting. I won't go into the details of all the other strange positive things that happened over the past few days and bore everyone with them but at this point I will just say I am amazed at the difference so far. Other intentions were getting to appointment in perfect time---having left late and taking the bus--BOTH days I walked in at PRECISELY the time of my appointment. Fun, weird, but encouraging!

Has anyone else done this before?

Thats awesome dude! Thank you!

[delias]

Welcome
I found myself not as focused today so didn't notice as many positives as I did the first 3 days. Hopefully tomorrow I will feel more tuned in again.

Great, continue to post your experience, i like seeing how people go!

The first three days of my trial were really amazing. I've started to loose some oomph in the past two days---self-sabatoge maybe? I'm not sure. I want to try to get back on track tomorrow. I know I felt a lot better on those three days where I was really focusing. Having a down day I think---very out of alignment, not at all in alignment with what I want. It is normal to teeter a lot in the beginning, to sometimes sink down into feeling really yuck and go back to the old way? I'm hoping that it's normal. I have ordered the 'Ask and it is given book', so haven't read it yet. Maybe it will come in the mail tomorrow and will help me get back on track. I know this site isn't for complaining so I'm trying not to say too much that is negative.

I don"t know if it normal to go down to the old way sometimes, but this is what i live, so i guess nothing can be perfect.
It's funny, because i ordered the same book as you! And wait for it to, to help me get focus on what i really want and not falling too many times out of track, in wondering if things will really happen etc...

Hi All,
Today went much much better. This is Day 8 of my 30 day trial.
I intended 3 things today: To feel 'in the flow' and keep my vibration 'comfortably high'. To attract messages that would reinforce and develop my faith in the lesson, 'what is within is without'. To attract/expect good, joyous things to come to me.
Here are the results:
In the morning-I called my phone/internet company because my internet plan had slowed down due to going over my limit. I paid $121 per month for 3 gig of internet, unlimited national and international calling, my telephone line rental itself and insurance for it. I was also on wired internet. I talked to a sales rep for about 5 minutes: End result---5 gig plan, wireless internet with a free modem, same unlimited calling, for $119 instead of $121. More coming in, for less going out. Then I remembered I had always wanted caller ID, so I asked for that which is $2.50 per month. All up---a difference of only 50 cents on my bill, and a free wireless modem in the mail as we speak.

Street signs that my eyes naturally fell on today (in other words I was not 'looking' to find messages). 'It's magic', 'You may ask'

On the bus, some random guy walked past as we were stopped. He held up his index finger to me against the glass window, like you do when you say 'one'. At first it freaked me out, then I let it go. After that my eyes kept falling on '1' everywhere, on signs mostly. 'One'---'within=without', they're the same, they're one. Stretching? It was pretty unusual.

On the way home, again my eyes fell on a sign that said, 'No cruising zone ends'. Cruising means what other than going with the flow?

I intended to be to my appointment in perfect time. I refused to look at the clock until I got there like I have the first two times I have done this and it has worked. My appointment was at 2 pm. I walked off the bus at 1:57, and walked around the corner to my appointment. This is the THIRD time in a row this has happened--even at the mercy of the city buses, and even leaving 'late' once.

For my appointment I imagined the other person (who up until starting this exercise I have been having a rather strained relationship with). I intended that things would go well---again, 'good', and 'joyous'. I also imagined on the bus this person saying a couple of very specific phrases. The result? Much of our time together was spent smiling, laughing, and hugging. And just at the end when I was about to think, 'oh I guess the imagining didn't work', the EXACT phrases I imagined came out of the other person's mouth.

Day 1 Intentions: To find ways or thoughts or look for things that made me feel good. To attract things that would reinforce my learning and increase my ability to believe that feeling good and expecting good things and believing something would happen would bring it into my reality.
What happened:
I intended that even tho I left late I would get to my appointment at precisely 12, at precisely the right time and I did NOT look at the clock until I got there. I got there and read the clock: 12, and this was said to me 'you got here just at the right time'.
I had been doing an exercise where I imagine my negative thoughts/fears when they come up and draw a big X through them, then gently push them away and as they get farther away they turn into orange butterflies that fly off in all directions, free, and recycled into positive energy. This, however silly, was an exercise suggested to me by someone else. On the way to my appointment I saw orange butterflies much like the ones in my imagination in a store display window, which made me smile.
I looked up randomly on the bus and saw a sign that said 'No Cruising Zone Ends', very similar to one of the recent lessons being 'go easy, the only work that is required is to feel good and use your imagination and focus on what you want'. In fact there were so many 'signs' that my gaze fell on naturally on this first day of the trial that I couldn't remember them all to write them down when I got home.
A specific thing that I want/desire that is extremely special and important to me has pushed me in the direction of all of these 'lessons'. I have been struggling with faith and wanting a 'guarantee' from someone or something that would guarantee I would have this one day...yet needing the guarantee says I have no faith in it, or in myself.
On the way home I intended not to have to wait for the bus. I checked the bus meter and it said it was 23 minutes away. It came in like, 3 minutes despite what the meter said.
On the way home my eyes naturally fell on these signs: 'It's time to update your insurance. Keep what is special to you.' 'Joy' 'Easy Call'
Without sharing too much sensitive info--I was given a new name today, 'Rosie'. Later on that night, I a new dressing gown came to me for free---and it was black with roses on it.
Day 2 Intentions:To think thoughts that made me feel good and to look for things to feel good about. To attract things that would reinforce my belief that my desires will manifest into my physical reality. To move through the day with ease, grace, gratitude, and positive productivity.
The results:
Made a phone call to a 'person' who has always been negative and unhelpful to me in the past, and also had trouble ending conversation--would start talking and then never stop even after I said I had to go. This conversation went differently, I said 'I only intend to talk for about 10 minutes or so.' The person said 'Okay, I can just listen but before you start I want to say don't worry about money, I took action at the bank today.' This person usually focuses on the negative, and today spoke about herself, but the words that came out of her mouth were completely different. Phrases like, 'Be patient you don't have to over-talk', 'don't push', 'it will come in time', 'use the three P's--patience, perserverance, prayer'. Then she said 'I didn't do this around anyone else I did this WITHIN MYSELF'. Complete 180 shift from the normal words that would come out of this person's mouth. I was shocked, and, only spent 15 minutes on the phone as opposed to previous calls which lasted an hour at least, most of which consisted of me listening.
Later on, a friend of mine made a blunder in saying something and then apologized, saying, 'SORRY, I SHOULD HAVE EMPHASIZED THE 'P' IN THAT'. (What she said sounded like an offensive word had the p been taken out of it)
Then, I got twice the amount of computer software (legally, of course) I needed for about 1/3 of what I could have had to pay for it. My friend then installed all of it for me happily while I did homework, so I got everything installed on my computer, plus all my homework done, and didn't even have to be frazzled one bit with the installation process (I'm not much of a techy.)
Day 3 Intentions:To look for thoughts/things that made me feel good. To attract things that reinforce and reaffirm the lessons I'm learning in a positive way that feels good and helps me integrate the beliefs into my core being.
The Results:
Signs that I saw (not looking for them, just eyes fell on them, or they were there when I happened to look up)
'Local know-how. Global can do.' Advertisement...what is within is without. Ha.
'Optimism'
'No Cruising Lane Ends' ---again, just looked up and there it was, again.
My appointment went very well. The content was happy and hopeful.
I intended that I would get to my appointment on time again, at 1:30 despite the apparent unreliability of buses. I walked off the bus, looked at my phone, it read 1:26, and I walked around the corner to my appointment.
On the way home I intended not to have to wait for the bus. As I was walking to the bus stop, the bus pulled up behind me and stopped and I didn't even know it was there. Normally you have to be at the stop and wave to the driver for the bus to pull over. This one just stopped and waited for me to finish getting to the bus stop---and I hadn't even signaled the driver!
Day 4 Intentions:To attract messages/things that will reinforce what I am learning to enable me to believe in them and take them into my core. to feel good, in the flow of the vortex that creates my reality. To attract a pleasant surprise.
The Results:
A blank notebook I found to use to write down all of these synchronicities while I am out and about that I have had since last Xmas had written on it 'Love is all around'. Later on today when I went to have something laminated, 'Love is all around' was playing in the shop.
I was questioning whether all this was true while having my morning coffee, I glanced to my right and my eyes fell on the word 'TRUE', which was pasted on a sticker on the car's window. Weird.
I was feeling very good, happy, and relaxed at the post shop. When I walked in there was a line out the door almost. I got an envelope, took a couple of minutes to address it, turned around and the line had all but disappeared and I barely had to wait in line at all. Talk about flow.
Pleasant surprises: 1)
I found a Xmas shop had opened (in the middle of august?) in the mall. I wandered in, 'going with the flow'. I had been wanting to find a russian doll for someoen for Xmas, but not the traditional ones, I wanted it to be more personalized. As I wandered the shop my eyes fell immediately on a buff, unpainted, russian doll. It was absolutely the most perfect, more personal russian doll ever for a gift because I can paint it exactly personalized in the way I want!!! NEVER seen one of these before, ever.
2) I got home and there was a message on my answer phone. This almost NEVER happens. It was another person I know sayign they had a selenite heart for me and would I like it?
Day 5 Intentions:To attract a pleasant surprise or gift.
This day was slightly less eventful. However, about 5 minutes after I was sitting on my porch 'feeling' this pleasant surprise or gift, I heard someone drop something at my door. It was a package I had been anxiously expecting---and rather than coming in 2 weeks as you would think, it came in one. Very pleasant surprise. Admittedly, my other intentions were the same but I didn't see or notice much and felt very out of alignment and kind of down today.
Day 6 Intentions:To look for things/thoughts that made me feel good. To attract things that reinforce my learning and increase my ability to believe that feeling good, expecting and believing that something would happen will bring it into my physical reality.
The Results:
I felt I was out of alignment today. I don't think I noticed much. However, I intended to find some new track pants that I liked for $70 or less, and also a new keyholder for when I go running. I looked everywhere. Normally there are hundreds of keyholders in dollar shops here for $2 each. I looked in 3 dollar shops, none of them had keyholders all of a sudden! I looked in every sports store and couldn't find any pants I liked. Finally I went to a dept. store, found 2 pairs that I liked and bought them both: for a total of $45. I was determined to find my keyholder. I went into a store I had already looked in and asked about them.I was told they didn't tell them but did I try this other store? (Which I had already looked in.) I said, okay thankyou anyway, and decided to 'go with the flow' and went back to this store. They had keyholders but way above what I wanted to pay. I found a cute white one with rainbow apples on it and a little sandal as an ornamental. I bought it for $20 (sort of griping to myself since I could have got one for $2 had the dollar shops had them, but I did really like this one). When I got home it hit me:
Two pairs of pants: $45
One keyholder: $20
TOTAL: $65
I got more than I asked for, for less than $70!!
Day 7 Intentions:
I actually had an off day today. I didn't even sit down to set my intentions. I did however, remember to practice feeling peace, and experienced some 'timelessness', as if this is just a dream world. I guess that it kind of a good thing. Toward the end of the day I really sunk quite low emotionally in terms of pain and fear, etc.

Thanks for listening/reading anyone out there who is brave enough to read this long-winded post!! I hope I'm on the right track with all of this. I would appreciate any feedback anyone might want to offer. I'm still very new to all of this.

I really enjoy reading about your experiences. Good luck for the rest of your trial.

Well, one day i was tired trying manifest money, so i start doubting about loa, i solve try a experimenting like "one good thing will happens to me today "or "one thing strange and positive" and really happens a bunch of little cool things.

I'm yet struggling with believing , like "i'm dumb, this is only coincidence", but its because i dont manifest money yet.

[Enlightenment]

Last month I had an extra $200 in my account without even knowing it. It was really funny and refreshing. I only found out after I looked at my account online a few weeks later!

Day 8 Intentions:To feel in the flow and keep my vibration comfortably high. To attract messages that will reinforce and develop my faith in 'what is within is without'. To attract and expect good, joyous things to happen and come to me.
The Results
A van drove by and my eyes fell naturally on an ad on the side of the van that said 'It's Magic.'
My eyes naturally fell on a sign that said, 'You may ask.' A big billboard I had never noticed before.
Kept seeing '1' everywhere. I was on the bus and it was stopped. A strange man walked past and held his index finger up to me against the window of the bus, like you do when you are saying 'one' with your fingers.
I was thinking of the new name I was given, 'Rosie'. I was waiting for the bus. My eyes fell on a sign that read, 'ROS E', precisely as I was contemplating this name. I stepped to the left and found that I had been standing in a position that blocked a part of the sign from my vision. The actual sign read 'EROS EROS', but I somehow got myself in the exact position not even knowing it to look up and see 'ROS E'.
I imagined a specific person saying two very specific phrases to me. Before the end of my visit with them, those two specific phrases came out of their mouth.
Day 9 Intentions:To attract things that will help reinforce my faith and belief. To move through the day with ease, grace, gratitude, and positive productivity. To attract a pleasant surprise
The Results
Kept seeing 'Flo' and 'EES' on signs, license plates.
Other signs, 'You deserve the best.' 'New Miss Universe Crowned.'

Admittedly I was feeling down today. Apparent manifestations were small and infrequent.

Sounds a little big vague, plus you can't really be sure these things wouldn't happen without your intentions.

[Explinfin]

Really cool to find extra cash in the wallet!

Hmm.

Maybe I will find some free money today?

I think you could never know this, if it is with or without intentions that things happen. But i guess it requires faith and if you like this way of living, it's a 100%win!

But i think it is just faith that can make you be sure at a 100% for concrete things.

But I can say that i believe in it and i could see that my life change when i think just about the things i want and not about the things i don't want.
