One of the most important concepts to understand when you want to manifest a new result is that it is easiest to get where you want to go if you start from a place of inspiration not desperation.
There are two things I would like to consider here. First there's your attitude. I think you will also agree that it is easiest to have a positive attitude when you believe you have the ability, or the resources to do something. Feeling worried or conce
ed that something might not be do-able can make positive thinking a challenge. And, if you've experienced failures or false starts, you might find yourself feeling a little on the desperate side. So,
Secondly, there are your available resources. You see, another key ability for reaching your goals knowing how to start where you are and use your current resources to take you forward. Here’s what I mean by “resources”:
Let's apply these two concepts. When you think of your goals, the ones you’ve struggled to accomplish in the past, you may notice that you’ve been missing some of the abilities or know how to accomplish them. Or you know what to do, but you can’t seem to get yourself to do it. That is what I mean by resources- the ability, the energy, the drive, the inspiration…
What is this big vision you have? What goals have you made and not accomplished? Where do you feel stuck? Now take a few seconds to think about how you feel when you think about your goal.
Generally, we make goals about things we want that we don’t already have. Have you noticed that we usually don’t feel so great when we focus on a lack? Well, since that’s the place we usually begin with goals, its great to have a process for moving from what we don’t want to what we do want, while feeling good. Sometimes, just getting started on a new plan can be uplifting. More often folks tend to feel frustrated or discouraged. And that’s OK! Its part of being human, that we all get discouraged from time to time.
Did you know that the negative feelings are part of the process of moving forward? Knowing what you don’t want is the place where you start asking for what you DO want. The thing most of us forget to do is to shift our focus and our energy toward receiving what we asked for. We just keep looking at what we don’t want.
The real secret to all of this is to change the way you are feeling about the goal. One of the difficulties with wanting something big is that it FEELS big to go after it. It seems hard. We don’t always know how to do it and it can take a while to see the outcome we’re after. If something feels big, you can be sure that you aren’t really in alignment with it- another way of saying that is that your energy isn’t in a place of being able to sustain a good feeling about it. So, you probably just don’t have the resources to get there right now.
What can you do? You have to start with the things you know you can do. The proof is that you are doing them right now or you have succeeded easily with them in the past. Think for a minute about how it feels when you decide to do something and then do it! Go beyond one thing. What about when you have a day or a few days when you are really on a roll, feeling good about your accomplishments? Well, it’s the good feelings that you generate that keep the ball rolling, even more than the things that you’re doing. And if you can amplify those good feelings by focusing on them, celebrating your successes and enjoying the process, you actually propel yourself forward.
Inspired actions come from your inner being, from your relaxed, playful, joyful self. In other words, when you let go of struggling and pushing yourself to do things you think you SHOULD do, and allow yourself to feel good, actions will lay themselves out before your eyes. These inspired actions will feel exciting and very right! Doing them will seem like the next logical step.
You'll soon see that inspired action is the only kind of action a deliberate creator needs.
