Formulate a clear picture of what you want when using the Law of Attraction

I remember waking up one day and wondering why I didn’t have what I wanted. It was a few years back and I had a graduate degree, but wanted my Masters. I had a decent job, but wanted a job I loved. I had a nice condo, but wanted a house. In the midst of this a good friend of mine stopped me blind when he said, “You have been so negative lately!” He wasn’t a close friend who I spent a lot of time with, but he was a good friend who I saw every other week or so. It was a surprise that he made that kind of statement when I hadn’t even noticed negative thoughts in myself.

I sat down and thought about it and realized that I was being negative. I wasn’t happy with my degree, job or house and instead of setting my mind on the intention of changing it, decided to become 1) ambivalent about it and 2) negative about it. How far did I really expect this to get me?

Fast forward to the change. I set out on, number one, deciding exactly what I wanted. When I said “I want a job I love”, I had no clue what that meant. I know that I was always good with math, but did I want to sit at a desk calculating all day?
Probably not. I took some time to assess myself and (strangely enough) came up with a writer as a career. I gave it a try and realized that I was good at it. I enjoyed it. I loved the idea of learning and researching a different topic for every assignment. Each job let to a wide variety of topics. I found the job I loved.

I also said that I wanted my Masters. Well- that isn’t going to happen with me sitting at home complaining. So, I signed up. Fifteen short months later I was rushing to my graduation to get my Master’s degree. I can’t tell you how many days were spent writing more papers and researching new topics, but it all paid off.

The “home” thing, I’m still working on. But I know that the process to getting it will be the same—get out there, have a clear picture of what you want, search and it will come. So in the end, getting what you want is:

• Getting the exact picture of what you want instilled in n your mindn • Believing that it is possible to achieven • Acting on itnn\These are the steps to getting what you want. n
