New York City Feng Shui and Missed Opportunities by Feng Shui Long Island NY Consultant

 

Everything comes into our lives for a reason.  Oftentimes, when we are not at our best energetically or otherwise, we won't take a second look at something that is coming our way.  We're not up to it, we figure and without much thought, we'll just turn away from it, decline (with thanks) and think nothing more of it.  We may be missing the boat here.  Instead of saying no, think it through.

When opportunities come knocking, it is wise to be there to answer the door.  While some don't appear to be anything particularly interesting or even inviting, based on the fact that you are working with the laws of attraction, it is always wise to look into something without just turning it down.

Investigate it further.  Things most certainly are not always what they appear.  In our hurried, sometimes scattered lives, we often don't stop to think things through well enough to make an informed decision. 

Oftentimes, as well, a seemingly "rational" decision may not come to you. These are truly the times to go with your instincts; we have all access to these wonderful instincts, our "gut" feelings, but unfortunately fail to follow them.

No one ever knows where the next door will lead or the next bump in the road will take us.  Wonderful opportunities we may have looked right passed may have also caused us to miss meeting a certain person, a lost business connection or an activity we may well have enjoyed. 

Ask yourself if you are unconsciously putting up barriers.  We have to be in the state of "allowance" to invite everything into our lives.  Knowing that they are there for a reason might be a tool in determining your ultimate decision.   How can you know what to do when you simply don't KNOW what to do?  Here are some ideas that might help you along. 

Some people meditate regularly, others not at all.  Meditation is nothing more then a deep state of reaction, when you are not thinking of anything at all and have nothing inside to "clutter" your head and confuse an already overworked brain.  Instead of trying so hard to focus on an answer to a dilemma we are facing, try allowing the answer to just come to you. 

Another way to accomplish this is to think about the issue just before bedtime. And then let it go for the night.  Whoever said you shouldn't make a big decision without sleeping on it was 100% correct. 

Taking a walk can clear your head as well.  Spending time outdoors with nature for some of us is a state of allowing thoughts, decisions and energy to just flow.  Since we are connected to everything by energy, the outdoor energy of plants and tress, birds and animals is essential to our well being. 

Also, remember to pray.  If your thoughts are focused, your intentions clear and mindful, it doesn't matter who or what you choose to pray to.  There is a power in prayer and also a releasing of things to a higher power that will help you find your answers and your direction; you won't have to worry about a possible missed opportunity again.

Hi Carole, I think you are absolutely right...opportunities come knocking but often times we don't have our eyes or our minds open wide enough to recognize them.

Thank you for another "eye opening" post, Carole.  You always put such thought and heart into your posts, and I thank you for that. 

Question.  I have heard  some people talking about absorbing positive, and renewing energy from the earth by being barefoot.  Any thoughts?

Carole - Soooo true and so important !  One must have keen awareness to take advantage of these opportunities otherwise they can just slip away without even knowing they were there in the first place !  This is one of the reasons I need to get back to exercising as it makes me more energetic and clears my mind.  Hope all is well with you !  Great post as usual : )

Hi Carole... I say that when opportunity comes knocking, invite it in for a cup of tea and some conversation.  We need to be open to things for good things to enter our lives, but we should still be selective in what we allow to progress beyond that point of consideration.

Carole I loved that! I've been going through so much change lately- and all that you say is true - and so easily forgotten - and great to be reminded! Thank you!

Sandy, My clients who are looking for jobs have said they never would have considered one that came their way...had they not thought of these words.  You just never know.

Hi Bruce, Interesting question and yes, I've heard (and done) the same thing.  Feng Shui is very closely related to the Earth and Nature and some of this is another way of connecting.

Christopher and Stephanie, We must be on the same wavelength.  I'd stopped exercising for just a short time and went right back to it because it did make me feel better when it's done consistantly.in my case every day!

Steve, I love that saying and hope you'll allow me to borrow it!  I always look at things before I turn them down and have found some things I would have thought of at the surface is better then it appears.

Fred, Hopefully they're wide open :)  And stay that way.  I often wonder what I may have missed when I was much younger and thought differently.

Liz, I know the changes!  I think you should move to NY and try looking for a house here :)  How is your search going?  I haven't had any luck at all :(

I love this post Carole!

I forget to take a breath and just relax. I used to go for walks to clear my head around Argyle Lake I might add, and your post reminded me I should go back to doing that again. Thank you! :)

I like to create two top lists whenever I am considering something, one for positive aspects and one for negative aspects. Whichever list has the most items on it wins, and sometimes that win is to decline the opportunity.

Russel's wise old grandmother used to tell us that when opportunity came knocking, open the door. If no one was there, check the back door, the garage door, and all the windows.
