Desired things

Desiderata
(Max Ehrmann, Copyright 1952)

Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons,
they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain and bitter;
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself.
Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love;
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment
it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be,
and whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy.

Need for Greed?

With the Law of Attraction, there is no need for greed because there is more than enough good to go around.

Remember that when we ask, believe and receive, the universe aligns people, resources and circumstances to bring us what we are thinking.

The universe is so abundant, it could give us all what we want.

There is plenty of good to go around. There is plenty of good for all of us.

So with that, there is no need for greed, for competition or jealousy.

So if we see other people getting what they want, just take comfort in knowing that you too can have the same, if think about it and feel good about it.

It is not as if what the other has will run out. Again, there is plenty of good for all of us.

The Testimony of Small Bills

With some of the basic concepts of The Law of Attraction out of the way, let me get into a few personal testimonies.

Before I knew this law, I always needed small bills to give to Bea as school money. I fret when I run out, as I could not give Bea her school money, or resort to giving her bigger bills.

But somehow, I never seem to run out of this small bills. When I almost run out, I get a lot of them as change. That was true when I needed twenties last year.

This school year, I needed fifties because I increased Bea's school allowance. Again, I never seem to run out. When I'm almost out, again I get a lot of them as change. Actually, I don't worry about these things, especially when I already know the Law of Attraction.

But now that I know this law, I tried it for bigger bills. And it works! I now attract the two biggest bills in Philippine currency. I actually attract a lot of them now.

And now to attract big checks...

Why not try it using the concepts I stated in previous entries?

Expectation

Along with gratitude and visualization, expectation is another powerful process one can utilize to get what one wants.

Expectation is a powerful attractive force because it draws things to you. Desire connects you with the thing desired and expectation draws it into your life.

Expectation contains all the steps of asking, believing and receiving. With expectation comes asking. With expectation comes believing and with it, receiving.

With expectation comes visualization.

So expect all that you desire and by the Law of Attraction, you will attract what you expect.

Be sure to expect what you want, though, and not what you don't want.

Visualization Aids

Perhaps this will help you visualize what you want:

The Science of Getting Rich

There is a thinking stuff from which all things are made, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe.

A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought. Man can form things in his thought, and by impressing his thought upon formless substance can cause the thing he thinks about to be created. In order to do this, man must pass from the competitive to the creative mind; otherwise he cannot be in harmony with the Formless Intelligence, which is always creative and never competitive in spirit.

Man may come into full harmony with the Formless Substance by entertaining a lively and sincere gratitude for the blessings it bestows upon him. Gratitude unifies the mind of man with the intelligence of Substance, so that man's thoughts are received by the Formless. Man can remain upon the creative plane only by uniting himself with the Formless Intelligence through a deep and continuous feeling of gratitude.

Man must form a clear and definite mental image of the things he wishes to have, to do, or to become; and he must hold this mental image in his thoughts, while being deeply grateful to the Supreme that all his desires are granted to him. The man who wishes to get rich must spend his leisure hours in contemplating his Vision, and in earnest thanksgiving that the reality is being given to him. Too much stress cannot be laid on the importance of frequent contemplation of the mental image, coupled with unwavering faith and devout gratitude. This is the process by which the impression is given to the Formless, and the creative forces set in motion.

The creative energy works through the established channels of natural growth, and of the industrial and social order. All that is included in his mental image will surely be brought to the man who follows the instructions given above, and whose faith does not waver. What he wants will come to him through the ways of established trade and commerce. In order to receive his own when it shall come to him, man must be active; and this activity can only consist in more than filling his present place. He must keep in mind the Purpose to get rich through the realization of his mental image. And he must do, every day, all that can be done that day, taking care to do each act in a successful manner. He must give to every man a use value in excess of the cash value he receives, so that each transaction makes for more life; and he must so hold the Advancing Thought that the impression of increase will be communicated to all with whom he comes in contact.

The men and women who practice the foregoing instructions will certainly get rich; and the riches they receive will be in exact proportion to the definiteness of their vision, the fixity of their purpose, the steadiness of their faith, and the depth of their gratitude.

-Wallace D. Wattles, "The Science of Getting Rich"

Receive

How can you receive when you don't have it yet?

This step simply means, after asking and believing you receive is simply having the feeling of you have already received. Feel as though you already have it now. And you must feel good about it (because if you feel bad about it, you do not want what you want in the first place).

Feel how satisfied and how good it feels to have received what you want. Feel grateful for it already. That will tune yourself to receiving what you want.

If you tune yourself to the feeling you have already received, then you would attract actually receiving it quickly, because you have focussed your entire thought to having what you are thinking and wanting in your thoughts.

So feel it now!
