What do you want and why do you want it?

When using the Law Of Attraction to help you create what it is that you want in your life, there are some things you need to know before you begin.

First, I'll use something that I desire in order to show you. Let's say I want more money in our life. That's a good one because people often want more money in their lives.

You won't attract money to you if you're focused upon NOT HAVING more money as your truth now. You can't come from a lack of in any form when you're using the Law Of Attraction because if you do, that is what you'll bring into your experience, lack of money.

You also have to believe what you're trying to attract. And you can't let your mind go to HOW you're going to have more money in your life. Those are details left to the Universe. That's the Universe's part. YOUR PART is only to put your desire out there and have your complete focus upon gaining that which you want in your experience.

The best way to get your desires out there and to be focused upon the result you request is by practicing gratitude. There's a lot to be said for being thankful. Whenever you are feeling thankful, you can feel an expansion within you. You can feel how GREAT IT FEELS to stop and think about all that you have to be grateful for now.

Getting back to wanting more money in your life. The follow-up question you ask yourself, once you've gotten a handle on your desire, is Why do you want more money in your life? Now this is where it gets to be fun and you get to talk about all the reasons why money would be so good for you in your life.

You might say,
'I can buy new clothes now that I have all this money in my life.'
'Great, now I can look for the new home in the country that we've been dreaming of!'
'Oh, now I can plan that trip to Ireland!'
'That new queen sized bed I bought is so heavenly and I sleep like a baby now!'
'I've always wanted to take some holistic workshops and I'm so thankful I have all the funds necessary to take any of them now.'
'I am so grateful for ________(you fill in the name of someone) in my life and now that I have all this money I am buying her/him a beautiful gift.'
'It's so healthy and supportive to be able to buy all the organic foods I wish now. And also those special treats I can now afford.'

Begin now to see how it works. As you write your gratitude list you'll find it keeps growing and growing. Your using your imagination to think of all kinds of ways that money could make you happy. And like attracts like. As long as you're focused on grateful thoughts, more of them will pile in on top of the last one. There is no limit; only your imagination can limit it.

In the Abraham/Hicks teachings, those experts on the Law Of Attraction advise us to do this gratitude list before we go to bed and again when we arise. If writing it down feels like it'd be too much of a chore, just visualize it in your mind. It's whatever works best for you and your life. Writing it down seems to put a commitment to it, rather than just visualizing it and then allowing your mind to ramble on to places you didn't intend to go to in the beginning. But some people are pros at visualizing and that's fine too. It's just not the means for most people. I feel that writing it down and visualizing it as you write it would add more power to the desire. And the more power, the quicker the Universe will bring it to you! Besides, aren't your dreams worth the time and energy to write it down? Think of that if you find you're mind is trying to talk you out of writing it down.

Come on and give it a try. The next time we meet I'll give you a long list of reasons why I personally want more money in my life. Life is what you make it. So make it big, brave and beautiful! You deserve all that and more. Believe it. It's the truth if you own it. But you have to own it first to feel it. Now, what do you want and why do you want it?

Love & Blessings,
