Default How do you maintain positive outlook if you're being sued?

We just got caught in the middle of a very unfair business transaction. It's hard not to have strong negative feelings towards the offending party. But negative feelings & outcomes is the last thing I would like to manifest back. The easiest way to get out of it is to allow the other party the chance to "cheat" a third party. Of course the other option is to stand for what is morally correct and face the lawsuit. Can anyone give me a different way of viewing this or creating a vision that will be for the greatest good of all?

Mom2boys,

That sounds like a very stressful and upsetting situation to deal with. I wish you the best as you make your way through it.

What comes to mind is something I read a while back about Huna. Apparently Kahunas perform healings through forgiveness, but not in the way you would think. They forgive the part of themselves that caused the illness over and over until the person is healed.

It seems kind of far-fetched, but if you consider intention-manifestation in a subjective reality it actually makes sense. What we hold in our heart and mind is what manifests in our life, and negative things are the hardest to let go which is why events seem to cascade around us sometimes. It doesn't mean we're "at fault," it just means the power to change it is within us.

It might not be strictly accurate, but it strikes me as a model that might be effective in this sort of situation. I think that practicing deep forgiveness towards yourself and the other parties and letting go of the outcome might have remarkable effects, not just on your outlook, but also in the potential to activate the law of attraction and arrive at an outcome you might not imagine or see a path to reach.

And if none of that resonates with you, that's fine too. I'd say let your intuition be your guide.

All the best,
Andy

I've recently been through something similar. (PM me if you want.) I don't think anyone here can tell you what to do as far as your case goes, but in terms of not being negative about the person...that's obviously really hard!

I allowed myself a few mean thoughts here or there, but mostly just try to get them out and remember that what goes around comes around.

But your post has reminded me that I should get rid of the negativity towards the person all together. It really doesn't serve any purpose other than to make me temporarily feel better about things that happened.

Hi Mom2boys,

I've been sued before, without going into the details, I know how it feels.

The best thing that helped me out was getting the advice of professionals, and having my options mapped out before me, and getting my close friends into the know. Having that support group there helps tons.

One way to have a more positive experience of the other party is to ask yourself what you think they believe they're getting out of doing this. Ask until you get a positive value...recognition? Fame? If you can understand, not agree with, but understand where they're coming from, it'll help you release your negativity.

Can you confront them?
No use keeping all your emotions bottled up,

Default See Yourself As The Source of Everthing

I think it's best to see yourself as the creator of this situation. If you do this you start to take responsibility, which will lead to a new viewpoint around this situation.

If you understand that you have attracted this situation in your life you will deal with it differently. There is something to learn here...

This sounds tough and I wish you the best with it.

One thing that keeps coming back to me is the notion that often it works best to look at, include a still open minded approach to what my next step might be, maybe adding this to an intention which addresses the overall outcome desired.

So, for a situation like this, 'I am developing and maintaining my own insight and wisdom about this issue at the same time, avoiding all distraction, so that i am able to see clearly and respond in ways which lead to the greatest good of all"

something like that....

I have already accepted the fact that I am responsible for the manifestation of the current events because me and my husband have held such strong negative emotions towards the offending party for over a year now. In a way, we expected nothing less out of them. So I guess we got what we expected, huh? I have already found it in my heart to forgive them, and convinced my husband to "not get so worked up" about them anymore and to forgive them as well. I have intended for their company to be run by people with a strong vision and integrity, so that everyone that gets involved with them in the future, as well as those who are involved with them are able to profit from their businesses.
