Time for an update and more typing through my feelings

September 7, 2008 – 9:04 am

Hello,

It’s updating time.

Things are quite good right now. I’m surprisingly calm about my money situation (despite the fact that the people who I owe money to are actually asking for it back, as in, it’s pretty darn hard not to think about it). But I do have a knot in my stomach. However, I’m really happy that I’m getting better and better at making my way up the emotional scale and so, when I DO feel a bit nervous or scared or sad, the fact that I know that I can feel better, with just a little bit of effort, takes the edge off.

During this blog post, I want to try to get further up the scale. If I can even get to a point where I can just touch number 4 on the scale, which is ‘Positive Expectation/ Belief’, I would be happy. Then once I know I can get there once, on the subject of money, I’ll know I can get there again.

First though, I want to mention a few good things which have happened. To start with, Steve Pavlina made a post in his blog about offering free copies of his book to people who would review them on their blog, if the blog was deemed good enough. Well, I sent an email about it and received a reply today saying that I would receive the book. The deal is that I have to read and review it honestly on my blog. If my review offers something new or is basically informative and well thought out, he will link to it from his blog. Which would be super, to have a link from such a popular site. (Funny, in searching for the url to the above post on Steve’s site, I saw that he just made a new post about raising one’s financial vibration. Cool.) Plus, I get to read his book for free, which I’m looking forward to. You can expect that review sometime in mid-late October.

The other good thing, in respect of money, is that yesterday I was out with my friend, at a bar which we really like. We know all the bar tenders but we always pay for our drinks, of course. Well, so last night we had six cocktails in total and when we went to pay, my friend got talking to one of the bar owners who insisted that we didn’t pay. We ended up giving a 4 euro tip to the bar tenders, and so, we essentially paid just 4 euros for 6 cocktails, which was great.

Oh, and I did get extra translation work unexpectedly. I won’t be paid for that for a while but when I do get paid it will come very much in handy.

So, all that is the good stuff. The bad stuff is still, of course, my being broke. Right now I feel…well, it’s hard to say really. There are bills which I need to pay off RIGHT NOW but when I think about money, but not those bills, I guess I feel just a little impatient. I recall seeing in one of the Abraham videos on YouTube that when trying to fix a vibration, you shouldn’t try to fix any impending situation, such as bills, as you’ll bring that negative vibration with you. I don’t know if I’m explaining that well. But basically, I figure that I shouldn’t try to fix my vibration surrounding those bills, but just about money in general. Those bills make me feel so nervous, so if I can just avoid thinking about them, which I can do, then I should be able to adjust my money vibration, which will bring money in and fix the bill situation anyway.

So, I guess that my feelings on money right now are…I feel impatient. I just want it all to be okay already.

Alright, so, from here I’ll try to get to hope. Pessimism, boredom and contentment don’t appeal to me, and I have successfully gone from frustration to hope, so I figure I can do the same now.

Update

It is now the following day. I didn’t have time to finish this blog post yesterday and in fact, now I feel so much worse. Basically, the lady whom I have to pay rent to, who I live with and actually really like, has just come back from a three week holiday. So now I really have to pay the rent. She hasn’t asked me yet but it’s already the 7th of the month, so I should have already paid. And as I said, I feel truly awful. I have a huge knot in my stomach and on the emotional scale, would truly say that I am at worry. Worry is an awful feeling to have because it actually makes my muscles weak, I just feel like I want to stop being. Not just that I want to hide. Or yes, maybe it makes me want to run away. I actually want to pick up all my stuff and leave, leave my friends, my responsibilities, everything. And I have work to do today but I can’t do it in this state, so I must try to raise my vibrations.

I’m going to try to go to disappointment. In fact, I think I can very easily get to disappointment. Because I truly am intensely disappointed with myself. I have passed so many years in this state of being broke. I am so disappointed that I cannot even pay my own rent, at 26 years of age. I feel really very pathetic. I mean it really is ridiculous. I started this blog about 3 months ago, so that’s how long that I’ve been trying to raise my financial vibration, and yet here I am, still unable to pay my rent, and even worse off now because I actually owe back rent to another person. This is truly awful. Now I will have to tell the woman that I pay rent to that I actually do not have the money. And that I don’t know when I’ll have it. It’s ridiculous, and I feel so disappointed in myself. Sure, I am trying, I’m trying hard, but with no success. And yes, other people certainly have money issues, in fact, my flatmate owes $40,000 in schooling fees, which is incredible. I only owe just under 1,000 euros, which is very little. And actually, I do have that money made, it just isn’t with me yet. (I’m not trying to think positive here, but the odd positive thought does spring up so I’m writing it down.)

So, yes, I do have the 1,000 euros, essentially, it’s just not with me yet. And at least I’m going to my mother’s house soon, in Norway, so if I haven’t paid by then, I won’t have to be around my debtors the whole time. But then, of course, if when I return I still don’t have the money, well, that would be awful. And then the next time my rent would be due would be very soon, so I would have to make even more money, asap. However, I do know that it’s all about my vibrations, and I am working on my vibrations right now. I know that if I can get to positive expectation/belief, then money will appear, possibly even before. And belief is number 4 on the scale, which is seven steps away from where I am. That’s not so much, given that I can leap over certain steps. I mean, I don’t have to go from 8, to 7, to 6, etc…I can go from hopefulness to belief in one bound. And I already to feel a little better, having written through my feelings.

But my work isn’t done yet, not by a long shot, because I still don’t feel good. I still feel fear and I have a knot in my stomach. I don’t know where I am on the emotional scale. It is very hard to feel good knowing that I have to pay money that I don’t have, and I had to pay it seven days ago and I still don’t have it. But, I need to keep reminding myself that my work is not in doing and finding that money, my work is in raising my vibration, which is what I’m slowly doing right now.

But I just can’t get over the fact that I can’t even afford to pay my rent. But I know there is no sense in being hard on myself. The facts are the facts. And, I need not feel bad about it, it doesn’t make me a good person. And I do already know, and fully believe, that it is due to my bad vibrations about money. Although I have been studying the law of attraction for a few months, some things take more time. I can’t expect to fix an issue which I have had for so very long, in just a few months. And yes, I have been practising certain methods, such as visualization, but it is only now that I truly feel that I am on my way to cleaning up my financial vibrations. In these past few months I have been trying to visualize how I want my life to be, but I haven’t really been doing it from a point in the present, in the now. I have been imagining myself in the future but not accepting my situation in the present. Now I feel that I am doing that, and I feel that I am on my way to having a much more positive vibration about money.

In fact, if these debts were not impending, I would feel really quite positive now. I had noted a few days ago that my normal vibration about money was that of nerves, whereas just a day or two ago, I started to think about money and felt frustration, which is quite a step up from nervousness. I know that it feels better because I felt it.

And I have just applied for a short term loan, so maybe I will get that and will be able to pay it back slowly over the next few months. And paying it back wouldn’t be a problem because I know that my financial vibration is rising, so I will have no problems getting another writing job. Also, with that money I would be able to take singing lessons and probably start earning money from that too, because my voice is improving all the time, which I am very excited about.

And I do actually have almost 1,000 euros already made, in the sense that I am waiting for payment from some clients. Okay, it doesn’t look to be coming any time soon, but it could, and many other things could happen too. I could win a couple of hundred, or even thousand, in the lottery; I could find new clients; I could, well, lots of things could happen.

And I already am feeling much better, and that means that much better things are gravitating towards me right now, as I type. I am pulling fabulous situations towards me right now, and they will be all the better and come all the more quickly as I continue this rampage, or this discussion with myself.

Now I feel much better than I did before. I would say that I am feeling optimistic. I will now to that work which I have to do, and then later on I will try to get yet further up the emotional scale. Yayyy!!!

Taking my emotional journey

September 4, 2008 – 3:57 am

Hello,

Yesterday was quite a good day. I had managed to do a rampage which took me from nervous overwhelment to feeling frustrated, which really did feel a lot better. Well, later in the day, I took a walk and talked myself further into frustration, which then actually naturally went to hope. I didn’t have to make it go there, it just did. And then after my walk I took money out of the bank, and for the first time in ages, I didn’t feel nervous about it. I also bought some food at the nearby shop and again, I felt fine about it, which isn’t normal for me. So, that’s super.

But I’ve woken up with nerves again today. I’ve got lots of people who I owe money to asap and well, I don’t have it. Frustration really does feel FAR better than this, so I will now try to talk myself there. (Though not before I go get myself a coffee, back in a sec…)

I’m back (from making coffee and playing with our fluffy cat). Okay, so the place where I am right now is this: I am generally in a good mood but when my thoughts flit to money or my debts which are due NOW, I feel very nervous and overwhelmed. It’s not quite worry though. If you go to the emotional scale here you’ll see that there is no spot for nerves, which is far less severe than worry. So, I’m putting my present feelings at overwhelment because that resonates the most with me.

But I want to be at frustration, because from there I know that I can easily get to hope.

So, let’s see…thoughts which lead me to frustration…okay, well, I’m intensely frustrated with this constant struggle which I always seem to be going through. Ever since I was about 20 years old (now 26), I’ve been trying to create my own business, an independent source of income. At the time, I didn’t realise that what I want was to be singer, but I knew that I did not want to work for somebody my entire life. All my friends were then in college and I was proud to be the one that was off on my own, making my own path totally, and being strong and being confident enough to do what I wanted to do despite what others said. Now, 6 years later, I’m still proud but I’m broke! I mean, I wanted to start my own business so that I could do what I wanted to do; travel the world, study what I wanted without being broke, create things which stand for what I am about as a person, learn languages, etc…that’s what I wanted. And I tried hard and yet here I am, still broke.

I’m frustrated with these constant struggles, it just always comes back to this, always comes to a situation where debts are looming and I’m without money and sure, I have money coming in, but it has to go out just as soon as it comes in because I have to pay off those debts which I owe. I’m just fed up with it all, I really am. I just want to be okay with money. Sure, I want to be more than okay sometime soon, but the singing will get me there. Right now, I just want to be okay with money. To not have to worry how I’ll pay off my debts, to be able to pay for singing lessons, to be able to go out for a few drinks with friends or a meal without feeling that knot in my stomach about it. I’M FED UP WITH STRUGGLING! And the crappy thing is that I really work hard. And I’m a good writer. And I just need maybe one or two more clients to be okay! But where are they? I don’t know! I know people out there need writing services, and at $30 per article my prices are very reasonable, and I always produce a good product. Sigh! I’m annoyed, I’m annoyed, I’m annoyed!

(Right now my thought are already starting to become a little more positive, but I want to stay in frustration for a while, without getting more positive, so as to ensure that I’m really rooted here before going onto hope.)

I’m also frustrated with all these things that I need to pay. There’s just ALWAYS something. Right now it’s a higher rent than what I’m used to. But if it wasn’t that it would be something else. There’s just always something! Always somebody asking for money from me! I just want to scream “LEAVE ME ALONE!!!”

Or I want to go kickbox someone or something. That’s another thing, I want to learn to kickbox but I can’t yet take lessons; why? Oh, well, of course kickboxing lessons cost money. Probably not even so much money! But they cost money and I don’t even have enough to pay my rent, let alone singing classes, let alone kickboxing classes! Crush, kill, destroy! That’s how I’m feeling right now. It’s not quite anger that I’m feeling though. No, I don’t feel angry, just very, very peeved. I would say that that’s on the same level as frustration on the emotional guidance scale, wouldn’t you?

Yes, I’m entirely peeved. I just want to be okay with money, how is it that I’m not already there??? It’s thoroughly ridiculous. Aaaahhhh!!!! Oh, and by the way, I am constantly looking for more clients. Every day I go to two freelance copywriting websites which put up job posts and I apply, apply, apply. And do I ever get responses? Nope! Big fat nothing. Some people reply and then say that they will get in touch, but they don’t. Oh, and yes, I’m quite aware that this is because I feel so darned negative when it comes to work and money (which, as you can see, I’m working on). So, it’s my own doing, which is even more annoying!!!

Okay, I think I’m done.

I’m definitely at frustration now and it really feels so much better than overwhelment and nerves. So, that’s super. I will try to stay here and continue my internal and perhaps (to fully make people think I’m insane) external dialogue. That will then lead to hope. I know because I am already starting to have positive thoughts creep in, such as “well, since it’s my vibration that’s keeping all that work away, I can just change my vibration and it will all come to me”. But I want to enjoy frustration just a little bit more because it’s quite pleasant, in a weird way.

Trying to work my way up the scale

September 3, 2008 – 4:04 am

Hello,

I have quite a bit of updating to do as a lot has been going on in mind in relation to the law of attraction.

Right now though, I need to find a way to raise my vibration, so I have been practising recently jumping up the emotional scale (by Abraham Hicks).

The way it works is that you pick on the scale where you are in the current moment, talk about it a bit to clarify how you feel, and then pick a point on the scale that feels just a little better. So you find thoughts, about the subject on which you’re focused, to get you onto one of those higher points, the better feeling emotions. It’s important, though, to not aim too high. You aim for a feeling that feels just a bit better, stay there for a while, then aim higher again, and so on. The idea is that doing this on a consistent basis will permanently raise your vibration on any given subject.

Well, I always feel negative about money. Where am I right now on the scale? Let me see…that’s tough to say actually. I would say that I feel a mix of nerves and overwhelment. Nerves aren’t on there, but worry is. I don’t think I feel worry so much as…nervous, which as I said, is not there. So we’ll say that I’m at overwhelment. Why do I feel that way? Well, let’s see…I need to buy a plane ticket to Norway, I owe my friend 50 euros, I have to pay my rent within the next few days which will be 390 euros, AND I owe the girl that used to live where I’m now living the rent for the past two months, so I owe her 780 euros. So you see why I’m overwhelmed, right?

Let’s see if I can head up the scale. Normally, if I didn’t know anything about the scale, I would start pointing out the good things about money, i.e. that I do have some money coming in, etc…but that’s a big jump, because that would be a jump from overwhelment at 11 to optimism at 5. I kind of think that maybe I could force that jump, but it would be far from permanent. So, I will try to make it a smaller jump. Hmm, this is actually tough. I don’t feel good about going to pessimism or boredom. I could go to frustration, though it’s only one jump. I don’t know if it would feel any better. But I’ll give it a go. What would make me feel frustrated?

Ok, well, I’ve been working hard on my website copywriting business for so long, and have been struggling with money for so long, yet I’m still here! That’s pretty darn frustrating (I could be more decorative with my words right now but I try not to curse on this blog…) I work hard, and yes, I do get some clients coming in, and my clients even say that they really like my writing, but I remain broke. And it just seems that whenever some money comes in, when more money comes in, more than I’m used to, the world just creates more things to put me in debt! There’s that time my computer broke just as I got paid (or rather, I broke my computer) and now, my rent is so much higher because I had to move out of my boyfriend’s house because, oh yeah, he broke up with me!

And now, I actually should have enough money to pay all those bills, except the money isn’t with me yet. I mean, I’ve done work which should bring me that money but I haven’t been paid for the work yet, and in fact, just now, a minute ago, I received an email for one woman for whom I did translations for who owes me 400 euros, and she said she can’t pay me till the end of September. AAHHHH!!!!!! And I just feel so stressed. No, I feel so ANNOYED and frustrated that it just seems that no matter what I do, I just can’t seem to ever be okay with money. There’s just always something. I’m always running out of money, and when I do have it, I always have bills to pay off. For God’s sake!

How do I feel now? Annoyed!

But you know what? I don’t feel nervous any more. Not right now. That’s pretty cool! And not having the nerves makes me feel better. That’s all the rampaging that I’m going to do right now. The next time I feel nervous I will have a similar inner dialogue, or I’ll literally just talk to myself about it, and try to get to frustration. Frustration does actually feel better than nerves and overwhelment. That’s quite cool.

Today’s post…

August 26, 2008 – 3:38 pm

It’s almost midnight. I shall sleep soon.

I’m gonna watch this video of the rampage of appreciation, then do my own rampage of appreciation, and then list the reasons I want to earn at least 600 euros per week.

Uhh, the video didn’t work. I’m in a bad mood. But I’ve been watching an Abraham video about talking yourself out of a bad mood, or negative vibration, so that’s what I’ll try to do now. I don’t want to go to bed feeling like this.

So, firstly, life is essentially good, I believe this and always have. And secondly, it’s all a big game. There’s no need to take it all so seriously! I am young, clever, beautiful, much loved, popular and talented. I have my whole life stretched out in front of me and I approach it with passion and fun. There is no lack in the world, only abundance. If I want something, i need to just ask for it and it is immediately mine. Everything I want is already mine. Things can change in a heartbeat. And any situation which is now in my present is merely the residual effect of past thinking. My present thinking is positive, I presently create positive things. I already have what I want, just waiting for me to pick it up. I AM earning 600 euros per week, because I have asked for it, therefore it is mine. The universe knows no time limits nor boundaries, so money and anything can become mine immediately, as soon as I ask for it. I am very proud of myself, as I have created my own business and I am only 26. I created it when I was 23, and I am so proud that I had the strength to think differently and do something which I decided to do. And I have made it work. I now earn more than enough money to live on. I have a lot of money. I have so much money that I don’t ever spend it all, there is always more waiting for me, however much I spend. With that money I take four hours of singing classes per week. I have a guitar and am taking guitar lessons. I am quickly on way to becoming a successful singer, though I am enjoying so much the journey also, as I am learning so much about myself and getting so confident. I write beautiful songs which people love to hear. When people ask what I do, I say “I am a singer”. However, my copywriting business is equally enjoyable. It allows me to meet interesting people, to work from home, to earn a lot of money. I am very very happy in the house where I live now. I live with my friends, a beautiful cat, in a house with a stunning garden. I have lots and lots of friends and many people that love me. Life is beautiful and I am so happy to be me, and so happy to be on this journey which is my life.

Voila. I feel better now. Now let’s see if I can feel even better still about money by listing why I want to earn 600 euros and meditating on each thing:

  • I want to buy that pretty yellow dress which I’ve seen
  • I want to be able to post in this blog and on the Steve Pavlina forum a post saying “I did it! I now earn 600 euros per week!”

That’s all I can manage right now. I ain’t enough in that happy place to think of more without feeling nervous. But I’m getting there! I’m on my journey, improving all the time, and since my money is already there waiting for me, all it is is taking an extra few steps in my development and then it will come shooting in!

My rampage of appreciation

August 25, 2008 – 6:04 am

Today has been a good day so far. I’m gonna make it even better right now by going on a rampage of appreciation.

I am so happy that I live in such a beautiful house, with a garden, with friends and with the cutest cat in the world. It’s great that I can work from home, doing a creative job, working as a website copywriter. I love that I can decide my own hours and that I can take a break whenever I want to. I love that I can take a break and go for a walk in this beautiful city of Barcelona where I live, and that I am very healthy, and so can walk for hours and hours and hours. I love this salad that I’m eating right now and am so grateful that I can afford to buy all the ingredients I need for the salad. I love that I can chat with Paolo, my ex-boyfriend, on the internet and that we are still really close and that I have someone who cares for me so much in my life. I’m really happy that I have lots of people in my life that care for me. I am so happy that I will go visit my mother in Norway soon, and that she has a big beautiful house where I can stay, in a gorgeous area outside of Oslo which has a river running through it. I am so grateful that I can afford to fly over to her and that I can buy her and my family presents before going over. I am so happy that my family are happy, that both my parents are remarried and very happy, and that I get along very well with both of my step-parents. I love ME, I rock my world. I am friendly, intelligent, popular, talented, strong and have a free spirit and I know that I deserve all the good which I have in my life. I love life, all of it, everything in the world is beautiful and special, as am I.

I consider it to already have started…

August 24, 2008 – 2:58 pm

Just an hour ago I wrote this post in which I spoke of attitudes towards money that I have changed. Well, I consider it to be already working because I just found 1 cent in my kitchen! It may seem silly to some people but not to me, that 1 cent was there for me! And I think it’s cool that it’s the lowest possible amount of money in Spain, so it’s like, I’m starting from scratch and things will now just get bigger and better. The better it gets, the better it gets.

So, I have decided to make this my money manifestations blog entry, so I’ll keep it updated and will add to it when I get money off something, find money, someone buys me something, I get more clients, and generally get money of any kind, in any way.

Aug 24th 08 - 1 cent!

Thoughts and updates

August 24, 2008 – 2:20 pm

Hello,

It’s Sunday evening and I’m quite sleepy. But I shall update my blog.

Well, two days ago I decided that I was going to try to just keep things simple. I can’t say I’ve been finding it easy. There is still all this blockage that I feel in me when it comes to money. So, I posted this forum posting to ask for help. If you read the post, you’ll see that I wrote it very negatively and that I did get some great suggestions.

The first thing that I gained from the answers in that post was that I need to start telling my story differently. instead of focusing on the bad, which I do try not to do, I need to focus on the good, and in fact, just be more grateful in general. So, this is something I’m going to start doing each morning; talking to myself and thinking of things which I’m grateful of, along the lines of “I’ve got a good job and have the ability to earn a lot of money. I created this business by myself, am my own boss and am very proud of myself.” In fact, I may add that to my list of things to do each day. This idea goes hand in hand with being grateful, which is addressed in the Secret. I think that I am a grateful person, when I see something beautiful I do feel lifted and very much appreciate it. But I am not grateful when it comes to money. Not at all. Not surprisingly, pretty much everything but money is great in my life right now. Hmm…

The second thing I gained today came from another post on the Steve Pavlina forum, which is here. One of the people who wrote in the post had a very similar attitude towards money as I presently do. She says that she tried lots of things until eventually coming to the conclusion that she had very low self esteem. Now, I would never consider myself to have low self esteem, nor had she, but now that I think about it, yes, when it comes to money, I do have low self esteem. When I run out of money, I start to think about all the years that I’ve spent in this way, and feel like an idiot and a loser. By law of attraction, those thoughts bring more of the same thoughts, and eventually more situations which create the same feelings. So, that is something I will have to work on. I think spending time being grateful, as I mentioned above, and telling a different story, will help that, as I will focus on the positives of my financial situation, and there are many of those.

Lastly, I also read this post by Steve Pavlina on ‘making a financial turnaround‘. Really only the last few paragraphs interested me, which were about dedicating more of your thoughts to helping other people. When I, and most people, have financial problems, we become so self-involved, to the point of being annoying. And though the law of attraction teaches us that we should not focus on negative things that other people are experiencing and say “oh, at least my life is not like that”, we should live a little bit more outside of our minds and focus on helping others. Steve says that just making that small shift helped him turn his financial situation around. So, basically, I need to focus on the probability that someday, this blog will help other people lead better lives living the law of attraction, which is SO great, and I would be so happy if that were so. Also, in my reasons for why I want to make money which I dwell on each day, I want to include more ‘non-self’ based reasons because these are the reasons that have far more weight, though the odd selfish, material reason is fine too.

So, today has been a good day for learning.

I will now watch The Secret inspirational video here and then do my list of reasons I want to earn at least 600 euros per week.

Why I want to earn at least 600 euros per week:

  • I want to be able to relaxedly spend my time learning Italian, Spanish and Norwegian
  • I want this blog to develop into a real source of reference, a success story of the law of attraction
  • I want to be able to dedicate time to going to the local dog pound to walk the dogs and also to donate money monthly
  • I want to be able to take train trips whenever and wherever I want
  • I want to get my teeth whitened

And we’re done. All in all; a very good day.

My list of reasons why I want to earn more money for today

August 22, 2008 – 6:05 pm

It’s 2.30 am and I’m about to go to bed, as soon as I read a few more chapters of A Happy Pocket Full of Money.

But first, here’s my list for today of why I want to earn at least 600 euros per week:

  • I want to be able to have big, fun parties at my house
  • I want to be able to take kickboxing classes
  • I want to be able to invite my roommate out to sushi (yet more sushi)
  • I want to be able to buy that pair of shoes which I’ve wanted for so long

Done!

Keeping it simple

August 22, 2008 – 3:30 pm

I’ve been reading A Happy Pocket Full of Money today (buy it here). It’s really good and very interesting, even talking about quantum physics and the illusion of time. I’ll right a better review of it soon. Anyway, I took a break from reading for a little while doing whatever I needed to do. I think I went to brush my teeth, but anyway, that’s not important.

So, I was doing this thing that I was doing, before which I had also been studying manifestation at the Steve Pavlina forum, trying to figure out what else I may need to add to my manifestation techniques. So yeah, I was doing what I was doing and it occurred to me that I was making it all really complicated. My main ‘teacher’, i.e. the person who’s teaching sits with me most, is Abraham and the Hicks. And according to their teachings, essentially, there are two simple parts to manifestation. In these parts, there are various things which people generally do wrong or don’t understand, but there are just two.

First; Ask.

Second; Let in.

You ask, the Universe answers every time, and then you let in. It’s really very simple as a concept.

So, the asking, i.e. the deliberate creation, is going to your workshop and building up a powerful magnet, so that what you want is really clear and the Universe can deliver that exact thing to you.

The second part, then, is being as happy as possible. That’s all it is. It’s a combination of appreciation and excitement for life. Contentment. And, more to the point, following your bliss. Filling your day with things that make you super happy.

So, knowing this, and having practiced both elements quite a bit, I feel that I should be able to pull that one off. And the thing is, I think it’s very important to just do a bit of asking and WAY more allowing, or letting it in. The universe answers immediately, so asking once a day is all that’s necessary. And going to my workshop everyday helps me believe also, which is important. But asking throughout the day is basically saying to the universe “I don’t think you know what I want, or that you answered, so I’m gonna ask again”, and that’s what you get. You get an unanswered request.

What I’m going to try, so, is to just go to my workshop everyday, and follow these new habits which I set for myself, and then, throughout the day, follow my bliss as much as possible. I will have to work also, but I’ll just try to have a really relaxed attitude towards it and enjoy it as much as I can. In this way, also, I will be acting as if I already have what I want. That is, if I were now earning 600 euros per week, I would be doing all the things every day which I love to do. I wouldn’t be spending my time striving to earn more, looking for more clients, etc…

What I’m a little unsure about is whether I should continue studying the law of attraction. I mean, I really like to watch Abraham Hicks videos and read books like A Happy Pocket Full of Money. But, if I were really doing all the things which I love to do and if I were at the place in my life where I’d like to be, would I be reading and watching all that stuff? Would I still be writing in this blog? I don’t know, I don’t really think so.

But, nonetheless, I do currently enjoy doing those things, so there’s my answer, I suppose. Yes, I like to learn about the law of attraction and I like to write in this blog, so I suppose that’s all fine.

Well, I’ll keep everyone update on my progress with this. I think that if I really commit to being happy every day and follow my bliss, and also, if I commit to looking for the positive every day, instead of lack, then I’ll bring more abundance into my life.
