Whoa! From no to go

There are 3 Pillars of Personal Power that are crucial to help you live
in to the Law of Attraction more easily. These are:
1. Focused intentions
2. Well-designed environments
3. Powerful beliefs.

Powerful beliefs are really the key pillar here. You can have all the
focus in the world, your vision board pinned up, and affirmations
up the whazoo, but unless your beliefs are lined up with your
intentions, then it is uphill all the way.

And personally, I'm in to the easy road.

The way beliefs work in relation to your manifestations is how the
lever on a railway track operates: the lever is there to switch the
train to either the left or right track. Your beliefs act like the lever
to the train of your intentions: they switch  to either 'go' or to 'no'.

So how do you know if your beliefs are switched to 'go'? Quite
simply you know if they are switched to 'go' if you feel in the very
core of your being, in your bones, in every cell of your body, that
whatever you desire is going to manifest for you. Maybe you don't
know how, or where, or when, but you just know that it will happen.

This is the way I felt when I decided in 2002 that I would meet my
husband that year. I had no idea where I would find him, but by
golly I just knew it was going to happen. There was no other option
for me: I would do whatever it took to be the person I needed to be
in order to attract that guy. I wanted a good man in my life, and
wasn't going to settle for anything until it happened. (We met two
months later).

If you feel like this about your goals and intentions, then great! You
are lined up, and it is moving towards you just as surely as the sun
rises each day.

If you've got quibbles or doubts, worries  or wonderings, then you
are switched to 'no' my friend. You've got some limiting fears and
beliefs that are derailing your intention train.

How do you switch from 'no' to 'go'?

First, figure out what track you're on. What are those beliefs
you've got in relation to your goal? To figure this out, think of
whatever you desire, and then ask yourself, "why don't I have
this yet?"

Let's say you want to meet your ideal partner this year. Ask, "why
isn't it here yet?" and then write down what your brain tosses out
for you. Maybe it's something like, "There's no one out there for
me", or "It's too hard", or "I'll never find love."

These are the beliefs jamming your lever to 'no'.

How do you change those beliefs?

Affirmation advocates would have you simply change the phrasing
and  repeat them over and over. Instead of, "there's no one out there
 for me," they'd have you repeat instead, "The perfect partner is out
there for me and is looking for me too."

There is one problem with this approach. Even though this is a
nicer-feeling thought, it does not squash that little inner gremlin
that keeps bringing up doubts.

This is because beliefs are more than just thoughts; they are energetic
emotional patterns that are imprinted on your being, like a record
impressed with the grooves of a song. Every time you play the
relationship record, you get the 'there's no one out there for me' song.

How do change your pattern?
You've got to scramble the pattern. You do this by releasing the
energy that the limiting beliefs create in your body.

There are many ways to release pent up energy, and I'm going to
give you two.

1. Feeling in to the core of the feeling
Another way of knowing if you've got a limiting belief is to check
how it makes you feel. Limiting beliefs often feel heavy and
uncomfortable. When you have a thought like, "There's no one out
there for me," it runs a sad, self-pity kind of feeling that sinks in to the
pit of your stomach. This is what you need to pay attention to: where
do you feel this energy in your body? Where is the most intense part
of that awkward, heavy feeling?

Focus your awareness and attention on this feeling. Get a picture in
your mind's eye of what it looks like, its shape, texture, colour. Keep
breathing gently. Then take your awareness and imagine piercing that
knot of yuckiness right through to its very core. Imagine you are on
the end of a laser burning right to the very middle of it When you are
at the most intense part, just sit there for a minute observing what it
looks like, any changes to its colour, texture, shape, size. Keep
breathing - you're fine! You're just releasing energy.

After a few minutes, allow your awareness to sink through the knot of
energy to the other side. Chances are you'll feel quite different:
relaxed, relieved, maybe even a little buzzy. The knot in your stomach
 may or may not still be there; if it's still there, it's probably diminished
in size, and you can have another go at the exercise later. Keep
repeating. In this way you take the charge off the limiting belief so that
it no longer kick starts that record of "poor me, there is no one out
there for me." You can now introduce a new belief that feels good.

2. The verbal barf
I love this one! This is where you let your inner gremlin speak its
mind. Instead of trying to ignore him, or suppress him, you let him
speak out and have his say. To do this, get a pad of paper, a pen, a
box of kleenex if you feel you might cry, a cup of tea or glass of
water, and then just write whatever comes up for you when you think
about your desire. You are just 'barfing up" on the page all those
horrible thoughts and feelings. Just write out all the thoughts, no
matter how petty, painful, awkward you feel about having them -
just let them be written. Keep writing until you feel purged. When
you're done, rip up the paper, burn it, and let it go.

Once you've released the energy, you are already switching your
lever to go. How cool was that! Whoa!


Here's to you and your life,
