Manifesting Stuff
I’ve been a self-described psychic about as long as I’ve been a normal flesh and blood person. Half and half. It just seems less. Time has a way of moving faster the older we get. I don’t know why. But one of the things I’ve tried working on for years is living in the present.
I can remember times when I was so worried about something
that hadn’t actually happened yet or that never would happen that it
just spoiled that time for me. I’m talking decades.
Like when I wanted to be a writer and just couldn’t believe that I’d ever be.
Now, there is a technique you can use when you are trying to
get something or have something happen in your life. People call it the
universal law of manifestation.
Basically, you want and want and want and then, at some point
you relax and let that desire go. Supposedly, that desire, the thing
that you want floats up into the air, Spirit catches it and eventually,
whatever it is that you wanted will happen for you.
I had never in my life ever heard advice like that, but I
gave it a whirl. I learned of it through a book called, “Creating Money”
by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer. In those days I was sort of a
semi-spiritual person. Interestingly enough, it was that book that led
me to another they had written called “Opening to Channel” which was the
book I used to learn how to channel.
Actually, you figure out that your desire for whatever it is,
is really important to you. It’s not a whim. You have to really feel a
lot of energy and emotion attached to this thing that you want. For me,
it was a piano. I knew I wanted a Roland electronic piano. I knew that
Paul McCartney had used one at concerts. Paul is a personal favorite of
mine, so this was twinging all the strings in my heart. I didn’t know
how to play a piano, but I wanted to.
So, I thought about it a lot. Someone might say I wasted a
lot of time on this project. But that’s what they told me to do in
“Creating Money”. You get a picture of what you want and tape it
somewhere that you’re going to see often. I put it on my wall. You talk
about it. You look at your picture. You really feel this thing. You
obsess over it. A lot of people will think you’ve gone round the bend,
but there is method to this.
Try it for yourself. Get a picture of the Grand Canyon if
that’s where you want to go. Or an ocean liner if you want to go on a
cruise. Think about it. Dream about it. People call these things Vision
Boards now. Hey, it works.
Now, what’s important to realize is that nobody is going to ring your doorbell and say, “Hey, you won the contest! Here is your ticket.” You
might wish for that, but it’s not likely to actually happen that way.
What will happen is that you will begin hearing from other people that
they had gone on the trip you want to go on. And they’ve got all sorts
of stories about it. You are being supported by the universe and are not
alone in the idea that whatever it is you want is a good idea. You
think that others have thought of it and actually done it. You can too.
The other thing that happens is you begin to save for this
thing that you want. You get a refund on your taxes and can set aside
$500 towards this goal. That’s a nice jumpstart. Or you get a raise of
$2.00 an hour at work. That’s an additional $16 a day or, in a week’s
time, you are netting an additional $80. You could put $40 a week away,
easy, in a fund you create for what you want. In a month you will have
$160, in two months $320. It just accumulates and you can bet time
flies.
The other thing that might happen is you get an additional
job. It’s not full time, but maybe you can get another $600 a month
doing it. Sure, you could use that additional money towards your basic
living expenses, but hey, you’re the one saving for a cruise. Just put
it toward that or split the difference and save half of it.
The other thing that could happen is because you’ve got your
feelers out and are picking up on information about this thing that you
want you notice more. What you might never have paid attention to before
now really catches your attention when you hear that it’s possible to
get discounts based on the fact that you’re an older person now, or that
you belong to such and such an organization. Or somebody you know has
tickets they can’t use and are willing to sell them to you at a reduced
price. Who knows? You never know. It’s almost like magic.
The more you think about a thing the more you will notice
things about it. And that works for pretty much anything. I’ve used it
with my writing. I imagine people out there who really would enjoy what I
write about. I don’t care if they live in the outer reaches. Somehow,
they will find what it is that I write about, and I might inspire them
to keep their eyes on where they are going. It’s like driving a car. You
start looking at something interesting happening at the side of the
road and guess what? That is where you are going to steer your car.
So, pick out something you’d like to have and manifest it.
It’s so much more fun than going to the store or collecting green
stamps.
Thanks for reading. See you next month.
