The Law of Attraction, The Vision Board, Our Intentions---they all are very powerful and they certainly do work. What we put our focus on, we create. There is also a paradox to this: oftentimes what WE want is not what the "Universe" (fill in your own special word here) has other plans for us. It is entirely possible that what you think you want so very much just isn't the best thing for you, not at this time.
Many people get frustrated, say it doesn't "work" and stop any Energy Intent at all. They lose their focus and oftentimes get depressed. I've seen it with Feng Shui if they don't get "instant" results and I've seen it with many people who have watched "The Secret," give it a month and quit applying the rules and principles.
So what if it's not working for you? You've put your energy, intention, focus, affirmations into everything you do and it still hasn't created the outcome you expected? One of the things NOT to do is become depressed. Things may not only work on YOUR timetable. The "I Want it NOW" approach is not always in your best interests. It is sometimes in the very difficult act of simply letting go that you will get back exactly what you are seeking to create.
When you let go, you are surrendering what YOU think is the best possible thing for you to a "higher power." It then takes its own shape and form and you can get some real results. They may not always be what YOU want but you've shifted the energy into creating change. I KNOW the word CHANGE is to some people a frightening word. They are perfectly content and always wish for things to remain the same. Life doesn't work that way.
At a recent visit to a client's home she wanted one thing and only one thing: the return of a long lost lover. She put all her thought processes and all her intention into trying to draw this person back into her life. And it isn't working.....When I had advised her both at the beginning of our Feng Shui session and in many follow up emails, at a certain point it's time to "Let Go." And see what else the Universe has in mind for her. For her it's extremely difficult. He may or may not come back to her but she is missing the here and now by just waiting for the "possible" future.
I want to be in the moment, I want to be aware and I know that the best possible outcome for ME is around the corner. It's impossible to worry about everything and it's a waste of time. We all have a destiny, we all help create it and some of it is out of our hands. Although it may not feel like it, surrendering is an act of taking back your power. I know it sounds like a paradox but it isn't. It's one difficult thing to do. But if you're stuck somewhere, if you're not enjoying the "here and now" for what it is, try it. Sometimes you just need to stop fighting for what YOU think is best and let the universe handle things.
