Searching for Limiting Beliefs….

Q) “If a person is not experiencing wealth and they believe they may have limiting beliefs towards money but do not know what those beliefs are, how do they, uncover those beliefs so that they can be cleared?

I see so many “experts” offering a million different ways to “get clear” but nobody talks about finding out what our limiting beliefs are.”

This is a great question posted over at my facebook page and while I started to answer it there… I knew this is a “topic” that many think about … and it is worth going into some depth about…

A) Lets look at the foundation of the question — ‘I believe I have limiting beliefs’ and ‘I believe I don’t know what these are … and … I need to know what they are in order to clear them’

The belief/vibration of the above — is actually what is limiting me!!

How could that be? I want to have wealth … and I am not experiencing it! So…. apparently I have a “limiting belief” that is holding me away from what I want!

Yes … that is true … If I am not experiencing what I want …. I have some beliefs/thoughts that are creating the vibration that is holding it away from me… Or better said – I am experiencing the outcome of the vibration I am putting out to the Universe.

We absolutely have beliefs that limit us … You will hear me refer to them as “old stories” … Usually we have picked these up when we were young … from parents, teachers, peers … the people around us. We “believe them” hence we live them hence we anchor them … on and on.

So… wouldn’t it be easy if I could just pinpoint the belief and then change it?!

There is probably not one specific belief … and it has morphed through the years … it becomes integrated with other beliefs … so trying to find that specific or even group of beliefs … really isn’t very productive … And that search will keep us in that unwanted limiting vibration!

“I attract to myself whatever I give my attention, energy or focus to”

If my focus is on – “I don’t have wealth” — What am I attracting?If my focus in on - “I have limiting beliefs” — What am I attracting?If my focus in on – “I have limiting beliefs that I want to clear …. because I need to clear them in order to live the life I desire … but I don’t know what those limiting beliefs are…. “ — What am I attracting?

The quick and easy answer is ….

Stop putting your attention on what is not working in your life! Hmmm …. I hear many of you mumble … “Been there – done that … and that ain’t working either!”

Now I could spout what many LOA teachers would … which is — “And what is that vibration?”  And then we could go off on that merry-go-round. Sound familiar?

And while that truly is a Law of Attraction answer….

There can be merry-go-round here… a Catch 22 … It is essential to understand how the Law of Attraction works…. And – it is equally essential to understand How You Work – How Your Brain Works! — that is what I teach.

Clearing…

When you understand that you do indeed have these beliefs (old stories) that were programmed from when you were young….  Do you need to clear these beliefs?

Sometimes you do know a belief … I was raised with a belief that people with money were not nice people. Obviously a belief like that is certainly not helpful towards having abundance! 

How did I discover that belief? Well actually that was my interpretation…. nobody ever outright told me people with money weren’t nice …. In my immediate family we didn’t have much money …. In essence the vibration about money was … it was a struggle … And there were some, not so nice, remarks said about people who had money.

As I have been on this self-discovery path … I did take time to look at my vibrations (beliefs) around varying topics.. Money was a big one for me… And this belief showed itself rather quickly … It just made sense when I looked at my childhood… and at my adulthood on how well I was living this belief! Why would I bring money to me if it was only for not nice people?!

I absolutely advocate taking the time to discover your vibration around the topics of your life. I teach this because it is about raising your awareness of what vibrations you are sending out to the Universe…. It is about your awareness of you!

It’s a simple process — and can be done with any topic in your life.

For this example we are using money … but you can substitute relationships, career, health … etc

What am I experiencing regarding money? Well we know there is a feeling of lack of moneyHow was I brought up around this topic? For me – there was lack of money in my houseWhat are my beliefs about money? People who have money are not niceMoney is hard to come byThere is not enough to go aroundYou have to work very hard to get byMoney goes to moneyetc… etc…

This simple exercise gives you an awareness of what you are putting out to the Universe and of the “old stories” that are stored within your beliefs.

OK – Got it — Now I can clear these – right?!

Maybe this is semantics … but I don’t teach clearing. You really can’t clear anything – the thought/belief is part of your experience … and while you may believe you would benefit from amnesia …     you would lose an integral part of you!

Look at those thoughts … decide if they still benefit you (I say still … as at one time they did benefit you – even if that benefit was that you fit in within your family) – If the answer is “no benefit today” — Make peace with it - knowing that at one time it did serve you….. Now you can start telling a new story!

New Story…

The original LOA answer of “Stop putting your attention on what you don’t want” still applies. But without first addressing and making peace with the “old story habits” that run through our brains on a daily basis …. you are fighting against a thought/belief … instead of creating new thoughts/beliefs!

It’s time to take your attention away from what is not happening in your life… and – place your attention on what is happening!

Start a Happy Happenings Journal ….

Everyday you have abundance in your life… start recording it! Write down things you appreciate …. A cup of coffee – a butterfly – the sunset – a friend in your life …

Record the abundance… if you have a job – every payday you need to journal … “I got money today”. Did you win $2 with a scratchy lottery ticket? Write it down … Did someone buy you a cup of coffee today? It’s abundance – write it down. Found a nickel on the street? Abundance – write it down! Did you save .75 cents with a coupon? That is abundance – write it down!

I know … your brain will start to tell you “.75 is not what I was looking for!” — But… now you know these are “old stories” – Now you can dismiss them … Tell them … you aren’t listening anymore because your attention, focus and energy is on the abundance and wonder of your life! You are creating new stories … new habits of thought!

I also know your brain will tell you this process is much too easy…. That is an “old story” too …

You can be a deliberate creator … or go through life allowing the “old stories” to dictate how you live … It is totally up to you! 

So… Your work is to get to know you … We usually know much more about other people in our lives than we do about ourselves…

I’m not saying to analyze you — we have done that much too often! Take time to pay attention to how you are feeling – honor and make peace with it! “I do feel like this … today I am aware this is an “old story” some old programming – I don’t have to follow this … instead I can put my attention on the abundance in my life right now!”

When you deliberately acknowledge the “old story” and deliberately choose not to follow it …. You create new habits of thought – “new stories” -

Searching for what is wrong with you … what is wrong in your life … Is a vibration that keeps you in the “what is wrong” arena!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you! You are a blessed, magnificent creator … and you have been powerfully creating your life according to your beliefs! Those beliefs aren’t “wrong” — they just might not serve you anymore … And… at anytime, powerful creator, — you can shift those beliefs, which will shift the direction of your life, by deliberately choosing where you will put your attention, energy and focus!

Revel in your power .. and have fun with this!

The “New Normal”….

A week ago … We returned from a 10 day Abraham-Hicks Panama Canal Cruise. It was a wonder-filled experience… There we were in this warm tropical climate being treated like royalty on the Holland America cruise line…. surrounded by many like-minded people … and to top it off we had 12-13 hours of Abraham workshops.

I would call it Spectacular! Should I call it “Normal”?

Early in the workshops a gentleman who was in the hot seat started to describe a process he does with a group and he said the results were miraculous. Abraham picked right up on that word *Miraculous* …. I am not quoting them here … as I am coming from my memory …  from my perception of the conversation …. They were questioning why we would label things a *miracle* — in essence they said calling something a *miracle* is saying it should have never happened… Yet we say we believe we can create anything….

Immediately I had the Ah Hah … the Ah Hah of how we lower our expectations …. we don’t expect super duper things to happen … Yet we say we do….

We say things like:

“I want my friend to be cured of cancer” and when she is … we call it a “miracle”“I want that job” … and when we get it … we call it a miracle! “There were so many applicants it was a miracle I got that job!”

Abraham always says:

“You can Be, Do or Have Anything You Desire”

Do we really believe that? Can we believe that and at the same time call something a miracle?

Today I went onto my facebook page and asked the question “What is a Miracle?” – You can see all the responses at the page – http://www.facebook.com/EllieWalshpage

There are no right or wrong answers as each person is sharing their own unique perspective…

These last few years I don’t usually call things a miracle anymore… just because I am aware that anything… anything is possible… But I do still call things “spectacular, awesome, glorious” … Abraham also poked at these types of words during our days together….

No Abraham wasn’t beating up on our vocabulary … for me, they were making a Big point … The point being that we have a tendency Not to expect Miraculous, Spectacular, Awesome, Glorious things happening in our lives… we have a tendency to lower our expectations….

Why?

Well what if I expect these Glorious things to happen … and they don’t… then I would be devastated… So I will lower my expectations and avoid being hurt… But aren’t you really disappointed anyways … and what if by lowering my expectations I lowered my vibration??!!

So did that Glorious thing not happen because it would have been a Miracle …. or did it not happen because I didn’t vibrate it…. I didn’t expect it??!  (You will always get what you expect)

Little children expect what we adults would call *miracles* …. yet if they do not see that exact thing happening they are not devastated… they don’t feel unworthy… and their next wish is another one of those *miracles* ….

I’m not saying they don’t protest when they don’t get what they want … but when they are young (before we have taught them other reactions) – they recover quickly…

Why aren’t they devastated like we adults are? … Because they are not tied to the details of the desire….

Stay with me here … cause this is Big ….
They are not stuck on how this *miraculous* thing has to look … They are not attached to the details…. they are attached to the feeling of *miraculous* … they are attached to their belief that life is supposed to be Spectacular, Miraculous, Awesome & Glorious!

Children have higher expectations of life than adults do. I know… I can hear some of you saying … “Well they can believe it all they want but many still do not get it.” I would question that … Have you ever seen the absolute thrill in a child’s face the first time they ride a bike? … or when a puppy kisses their face? …. or the first time they go to the zoo? … or even when they are happily off in the room playing by themselves? …. Glorious, Spectacular………

What Abraham finally said was how we should start seeing these *miraculous* things as normal … the new normal!

Think of it … If we can Be, Do or Have anything we want… then that is normal …

We call the birth of babies a *miracle* … Here is this miraculous moment…. one in thousands when you are conceived…. We call that a miracle…. Then there is a gestation period… And then there is this *miracle* birth… The *miracle* of life ….

Life is a *Miracle* …. yet it happens throughout the day …. all day every day …. so we also consider it *Normal*

A Miracle is Normal!

I’m not suggesting you change your vocabulary …. because we use these words to describe our excitement about a situation …. we use them to display how happy we are …

I am suggesting you look at your expectations about your life … and start to upgrade your expectations! Start to expect these *miracles* in your life…. That is the New Normal!

You Will ALWAYS Get What You Expect!

So…. I’ve received a few emails from folks who were upset about this article…. “You Can’t EVER Get What You Want“  They were upset…. “What do you mean I can’t get my dreams?” “You are the person who says we can live our desires” …

Hmmm – I’m guessing they only read the headline and not the entire post… Or they were so upset by the headline – it stayed with them even when they read the article…

I also heard from a few who said …

“I am getting what I want… so does that mean I am expecting what I want?”

If you are getting what you want… If you are seeing the manifestation of your dreams… If you are seeing the pathway to your dreams being laid out in front of you…. Then you have a belief in your desires… You have an expectation for things to go well for you…

Another person said …

“I am hearing what you are saying… and I need help in formulating these dreams into expectations”

Why does one person have a belief their desires will work out for them and another person doesn’t?

We could probably go into hours and hours of conversation … analyzing each person’s life story … their upbringing… the circumstances they were brought up in …. the situations they observed other people living… etc… etc… We would then be able to *see* the foundation of their beliefs…

Or …. We could keep this very simple, which is what I do …. and realize it doesn’t really matter what got you here… what matters is what you are doing thinking right now.

Even if we figure out … this first happened when you were 3 … then it was anchored when you were 4 … all through your school years …. etc.. etc… So what? You can’t change what has happened already….

You can’t change history…. you can change, right now, where your focus is….

If you are not seeing the results of the dreams and desires you have in your life today….

It Does Not Mean…

You aren’t smart enough…You haven’t worked hard enough…This isn’t going to happen for you…

All it means is ….

You have not yet turned those dreams into expectations… You have some beliefs, “old stories”, that are clouding your focus…

I Think I Believe….

Sometimes it takes a little bit of reflection to realize —  “You want to believe that you believe these things will happen for you” - I have spoken about my own personal experience of this… wanting so badly to believe that I believed! I was not paying attention to “how I felt” instead I was trying to plow through and make this dream a reality.

That plowing through … actually anchored those “old stories”, again, that I had about success… as the outcome I wanted – didn’t turn out!

If your desires haven’t shown up in your life… it is time to look at them…and feel them…

If your dream is to be a millionaire next year … and you have an income of 26,000 per year with very little, if any, money in the bank … My question to you is – What do you FEEL when you say “I will be a millionaire next year?” Do you really feel that is true? Or do you soooo wish that would be / could be true?!

I’m guessing it is the latter…. Don’t be upset by that… You need to be very honest about how you feel about these desires. When you know how you truly feel … then you can shift your way into your dreams…

Shift Into Expectation…

Play with the desire – how does it feel to say I will double my income by next year? Find a level that you feel you can believe….

Now you might be thinking… “Well I just went from wanting to be a millionaire to settling for 52,000 a year! – I don’t want to settle for that!”

I agree… I don’t want you to settle either…. I want you to start to change those “old stories” – those beliefs that have been holding you back…  The only way to do that – is to start telling new stories… and those stories have to be believable to your brain!

I talk about how your brain works… how it is it’s job to keep your life within your beliefs in the free video series http://YouCanCreateTheLifeYouDesire.com

Then you keep shifting …. “Well…. I could double my income this year… and I know people who have even tripled their income in a year… I know there are lots of opportunities out there for me and I am open and ready for them. I know there have been people who were poor and became rich … This is not impossible … I am in the process of having these changes in my life… I am in the process of becoming a millionaire…”

Those are the kind of dialogues you want to have with you! You want to create and anchor new stories about your life. As you do… you absolutely will see movement … As you see the evidence of these things happening … you are now anchoring the new stories.

“In the Process”

Notice how I used those words “in the process”  in the above example… They are crucial words in creating your new beliefs. They soften your “old stories” … They can make it so much easier for your brain to believe…

“I have the job of my dreams”
If you don’t have that job….your brain is kicking up a storm … and you know by how you feel when you say that….“I’m in the process of having the job of my dreams”
Ahhh – that feels better… much easier for your brain to accept

Think – Feel – Shift …. Think – Feel – Shift

Whatever is going on in your life today … is, in essence, an expectation. You now can look at these situations and start to shift your dreams into expectations….

There are lots of processes to help you make those shifts…. Abraham Hicks lists 22 processes in the book Ask And It Is Given

I have created and fine-tuned several process for my groups and clients which I will be talking about in great detail at – http://ReTrainYourBrainForSuccess.com

What Does A Toothbrush and Meditation Have in Common?

Do you brush your teeth everyday?

I know… this is a personal question.

And… I am guessing I know the answer ….

It is “YES” – You do not leave your house until you have brushed your teeth…

Well maybe if it is an emergency … but if you are older than 10 I am going to guess you brush your teeth before you leave the house everyday.

So what does brushing your teeth and meditation have to do with each other?

First let’s look at the reasons you would brush your teeth:

Health …. A clean mouth promotes health throughout your body.Feel Good …. That fresh feeling in your mouthLook Good …. Something about that just brushed smile….Happier Friends …. If your breath is fresh – I promise you… your friends are happier!

Now let me ask you a question …. Do you meditate everyday?

I know there are some of you reading this that are answering “Yes! Yes!” …. But some of you are saying “Well almost everyday” or “Every few days” or “Every now and then” And at this point some are saying “Get to the point!”

Let’s look at the reasons you would meditate everyday:

Health …. A “clean” mind promotes health throughout your body.Feel Good …. That refreshed feeling throughout your being.Look Good …. When you are lighter and feeling good … you absolutely look good.Happier Friends …. When you are in that feel good place … the people around you feel good … it is contagious!
And More……Centered …. Taking this time to quiet your mind leaves you feeling more centered.Clarity …. When you are centered …. clarity instead of confusion is the order of your day.Connection …. Feeling centered and clear – you gain a feeling of connection … connection with who you are in this world.Balance …. Our brains are running thoughts all day long. Taking just 15 minutes a day of quiet time will give you the benefits of a quieter mind.

Scientists are now (finally) starting to look at the benefits of meditation – http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/01/28/how-meditation-may-change-the-brain/

Why do we sometimes meditate and always brush our teeth?

Habits …. We are all taught to brush our teeth at a young age… My mother did not tell me to brush my teeth if I wanted to … she just told me to Do It! And … I don’t remember her giving me much explanation of why I should brush my teeth … Again she told me to Do It!

I do remember rebelling against brushing my teeth…. My mother would ask “Did you brush your teeth?” — I wouldn’t answer (that’s because the answer was No). She knew I hadn’t so told me “Go brush your teeth” … And I would be huffing and puffing, doing other things… I just didn’t want to brush my teeth!

Maybe it’s because I hadn’t yet realized all the benefits … and I thought this was a frivolous thing for me to spend my time on.

Years later… brushing my teeth was now a habit for me and I did indeed realize all the benefits from cultivating this habit… But meditation …. I wasn’t quite there yet.

Meditate everyday…

I heard people talking about the benefits … but I had not yet lived them… I thought this meditation stuff was “Woo Woo” – I also thought it was hard and very time consuming. I believed I was going to have to sit in a particular way (that I did not find comfortable) and I was going to have to have absolutely no thoughts running in my head (which was totally impossible for me!)

… And I was going to have to do this for at least 1 hour a day …. That is what all the books I was reading said! I certainly could not justify using my time for this frivolous thing! Hmmm sounds kinda like my excuses about brushing my teeth. 

Through the years I heard others talk about the benefits …. and finally it started to sink in my head. I threw the meditation books away… Sat as I wanted to … put my attention on my breath … and when those thoughts ran in (which they did and still do) I didn’t freak out… I just put my focus back onto my breath.

I didn’t do this for hours … truthfully I started out with about 3 minutes … That was how long I could sit still and I let that be AOK! By allowing myself this freedom …. I did indeed start to do this everyday.

Today meditating is a habit for me ….I meditate before I brush my teeth … anywhere from 15 – 30 minutes … and I am absolutely reaping the benefits!

Would have been a lot simpler if my mother would have told me “Meditate and brush your teeth everyday – just Do It!”

Do you meditate everyday? If Yes … Why? if No … Why?

Question and Answer Time ….

Let’s look at a question I recently received … I picked this question to share because it contains several questions within it … and hits upon many of the same thoughts I receive from readers.

“I have always been able to call upon things as I imagine them into existence…at least for small things (i.e. hearing a song when I want to hear it, running into a person I wanted to see that day, having someone bring up one of my pre-conceived thoughts for that particular day, etc.) But as far as Long-term goals, I feel as if I lack in areas.

I believe I need to better learn the visualization factor. I can truly see myself doing and/or achieving the things I want at certain times…I just have a really hard time getting in the mood to visualize them every day. You could say it’s a lack of discipline.

I know I am capable of some of the greatest things the world has ever seen, I just don’t know what they are yet. What I have been searching for is guidance to become more disciplined and focused on the things I want. With me it is so easy to get sidetracked from what I want by the thought of how to get there…I know I’m supposed to disregard the how and when, and just know that it’s going to happen, but I still get stuck at that part every time. It’s almost as if only the majority of me really wants to be successful, and the other part could really care less. I want to rid myself of that negative, lazy, skeptical personality trait completely.

I’m not asking anyone to have the answers for me. Alas, if there is any prudent advice out there that I may attain from someone, I would be most grateful to hear any comments or suggestions.”
Thank you for your time,
Tj

This question came in a few days ago… I didn’t answer it right away … because I was vacationing in Puerto Rico and the internet connection had been a bit slow…. Well OK – the connection was slow but also the temps were warm, the sun was shining and I was on the beach!  

But … even with that wonderful weather this question had been calling me since I read it. The reason it calls me is … I believe it sums up many questions I receive …. Many people “get it” – they see the connection of being able to call to themselves certain situations. Mostly they can look back and see there were many times they wanted to hear a song … and poof it is on the radio – or they were just talking about a certain type of car … and whoosh it passes by.

We used to call that “coincidence” but … once you have learned about the Law of Attraction, Universal laws, you realize what these so-called coincidences really are.

Let’s take this question bit by bit … as it holds so many questions and answers within it …

In the first paragraph Tj is aware that those so-called coincidences are really his vibration and the Law of Attraction at work. And in this paragraph he is also aware these coincidences are “not working” for his Long Term Goals….

This is the piece many don’t understand “how we work” …

One time Carol and  I were kayaking on a lake .. we were in an area covered with lilly pads – I said to Carol “Gee I’ve seen frogs on lilly pads on the tv and pictures… but I’ve never personally seen a frog sitting on a lilly pad .. and then we both turned our heads and poof there was a frog sitting pretty on  a lilly pad!

That was truly instant manifestation! Why did it happen so effortlessly and quickly?

Here is where the “how we work” comes in …

I had no ties to this manifestation. It was not important to me …. I was not worried about not seeing a frog on a lilly pad …. I didn’t have any old stories attached to seeing a frog on a lilly pad – Nothing in my belief system said it was not possible for me to see this frog. I didn’t have any fear or doubt or worry attached to this outcome. It was kinda like – Wouldn’t it be nice to see a frog on a lilly pad …. And then I let it go ….

I let it go … because it did not rate vitally important in my brain … and I had no old stories attached to it. When we can look at all of our life situations like that … they will indeed manifest quickly!

But we humans have a tendency …no actually it is a programming of what is and isn’t vitally important. We rate seeing the frog as not important … but making a million dollars or finding our mate as very important. And within that “importance” we have belief systems (what I call old stories) running around that attach worry, fear and doubt on the outcome.

In the second paragraph Tj says: “I believe I need to better learn the visualization factor. I can truly see myself doing and/or achieving the things I want at certain times…I just have a really hard time getting in the mood to visualize them every day. You could say it’s a lack of discipline.”

He is absolutely onto something here …. Though I would not say “lack of discipline” because, for me, those words are too strong..  This discipline he thinks we lack is actually a habit …. We have those “old stories” of fear, worry, doubt and self esteem attached to the things we deem important … And we don’t even realize it. In essence we have attached beliefs, of what can and cannot happen for us, to situations that show up in our lives.

This lack of discipline is indeed a consistency problem.  It isn’t that we aren’t consistent … it is that we are consistently reliving those old stories – old habits of reaction to life. We go through much of our day on auto-pilot – a situation happens – in microseconds our brain scans for a reaction … and we habitually repeat this reaction.

It is a reaction – an action that we do over and over again.

We don’t change those reactions until we become aware that we do indeed have old stories that are running in the background. It’s like background music you aren’t paying much attention … but you are probably humming in your head. We don’t necessarily need to know the old stories .. we just need to pay attention to how we feel and create new stories that feel good! We need to consistently have more awareness in our daily lives … so we can act on the now instead of reacting from the past.

In the third paragraph… my heart sings when Tj acknowledges “I am capable of some of the greatest things the world has ever seen” Indeed you are! We all are … and that thought/feeling comes straight from your inner voice … your inner wisdom! Well actually what your inner being says is “You are the greatest thing the world has ever seen!” – Our programmed brain added in the words that make it sound like it has not yet already happened!

When you can connect with your inner wisdom and make the proclamation that you are already the greatest … you will then be able to show that greatness to the world!

Tip: If you aren’t yet totally comfortable with proclaiming your greatness … use the 3 magic words ‘in the process’ – “I am the greatest the world has ever seen and I am in the process of letting it out into the world”

There is much more in this question … but I will end here for now….and will do a Part 2 in a few days.

Please share if you identify with Tj and his questions … and your comments, questions about this.

Part 2 is now posted: http://livingthelawofattraction.com/loa-blog/question-and-answer-time-part-2/

I Don’t Know My Passion!

“I don’t know my passion!”“What is my life’s purpose?”“I’m not sure what I want…”

People will tell me — “I’m not happy in my job … but I’m not sure what I want to do. How can I create the life I desire? …. When I am not sure of those desires!”

There is frustration in this … Here you are wanting to create the life you desire … Excited about realizing you absolutely have the power to create the life you desire… And then realizing … “Gee I don’t even know what I really want to do!”

I work with many people … they first come to me either because they are uncomfortable in the life they are living and are hoping there is a way to change it … or … they have an idea of what they want to do – but have no idea how to live it!

And … many jump from book to book, seminar to seminar, process to process …. trying to find the answer… I guess they are thinking this book, seminar or process is going to supply the answer …. It Isn’t!!

I tell all my clients “I do not have your answers! … You Do! … and it is going to take some work to uncover them!”

I teach all about how the Law of Attraction works in our lives…. AND … how we work … how our brains work …

There is a critical piece that many are not teaching … and I believe it is imperative to understand. When you understand how we are living life from old programming – what I call “old stories” ….You are then empowered…

It is because of these “old stories” that most people really don’t know who they truly are…. They don’t know their passions because they are not in-tune with their own inner voice … they are running on those “old stories”.

When I ask my clients that question – “What is your passion?” …. many, many times I get a blank stare…. It makes perfect sense because in our society we have not been taught to gather information about ourselves…

We have been taught to gather lots of information about many things around us as well as about other people … But not about us! Pretty silly isn’t it? We have lots of knowledge about many things …. and little knowledge about what makes each of us, as a unique individual, tick!

The Inner Work:

The “work” that will guide you to knowing who you are … is about a discovery of who you are. This is not a long, difficult task …. Actually it is rather pleasant to uncover these things about you … When you take these steps ….  many have said they “felt like they were coming home” — Indeed that is what you are doing …. as you are finally recognizing, acknowledging and honoring your own specialness!

What Are Your Fulfillment Needs?

My good friend and mentor, Michael Losier has written a new book – “Fulfillment Needs – How to uncover what fulfills you so you can live your life’s purpose”. (book is due to be published late 2011/early 2012)

Several months ago Michael did a training call, on this process he has developed, with his inner circle member which I attended and participated in.  And while I felt I knew all about me … I did uncover a bit more about me – which has given me another level of clarity on my path!

I then knew… this is a very important process for people to gain insight into their own unique desires.

I just recently taught this process at one of my LOA Focus Group meetings and each of the 22 participants at that meeting had “Ah Hah” moments!

Many of those people have been telling me how helpful this has been for them. They have new clarity and feel they are now more aligned with the things they want in their lives.

Since that class… I’ve had people on and off line asking me to do this class again! So… I went to the expert himself – Michael Losier!

I am excited to tell you … Michael has agreed to do a Free Training Call on this process! “How to Uncover Your Fulfillment Needs So You Can Live Your Life’s Purpose”

The call is on Thursday, July 28th – 8pm ET / 5pm PT

Don’t Miss This! I believe this process is the doorway for you to gain the clarity you need to create the life you desire!

I don’t know when or if Michael will be doing a free class like this again!

To get all the information and to sign up for the call … Visit this website – http://EllieWalshEvents.com

The call will be recorded … but you need to sign up to receive that recording….

Mark you Calendar! July 28th — A call with Michael is always insightful and fun!

*See* you there!

Abra Cadabra… Manifest Now!

Wouldn’t you love it? To say those magical words and …. Poof – there is that thing you wanted!

So… How come it doesn’t work like that?

Well … actually it can and does …. And you don’t even need to say the magical words to have it happen… But…. You do have to do a magic act .

Magic? I don’t know how to do magic…

Sure you do … and it comes so easy to you – you aren’t even aware that you do it! What about the time you were thinking about a person … maybe you were thinking I haven’t spoken to so-n-so in awhile – I wonder how they are? And then Poof – the phone rings and it is that person on the phone. Magic!

I just had this happen twice last week with 2 different people. It happens often and we call it a coincidence and we don’t think much about it.

OK … so it’s not really magic but it is indeed instant manifestation. I talk about this in a recent post – the frog on the lilly pad … and in the comments area I told the story about a swan.

“I had no ties to this manifestation. It was not important to me …. I was not worried about not seeing a frog on a lilly pad …. I didn’t have any old stories attached to seeing a frog on a lilly pad – Nothing in my belief system said it was not possible for me to see this frog. I didn’t have any fear or doubt or worry attached to this outcome. It was kinda like – Wouldn’t it be nice to see a frog on a lilly pad …. And then I let it go … “

There is the Magic

I wasn’t attached to the outcome … No fear or worry attached to it … I didn’t have any “old stories” in my beliefs that said I could or couldn’t see that frog — I also didn’t have any “old stories” attached to the outcome of the people I was thinking about…..  and Poof – Instant Manifestation!

The Magic is not have any attachment to the outcome and just letting it all go. Having a desire – feeling the joy of that desire and not getting caught up in the ‘I have to have this’ – ‘if this doesn’t happen I will be devastated’ – ‘I’m worried that this might not happen’… Or the most blatant killer of magic …. ‘This could never happen for me’.

Easier Said Than Done

I agree … it sure feels easy to say “let it go” than if feels to do it! Some will even tell you your brain is wired to not let it go. Well that isn’t 100% true. Children let it go all the time … they daydream – they talk about big ideas – grand adventures – and you see the pleasure they derive from it in their eyes! …And sure enough there is those adults starting to tell them — to settle – to find something that will make them money… Many adults will eventually tell these kids to not dream so big!

You were wired to Dream BIG! And you have been taught, actually programmed away from doing that! Those are the “old stories” I talk so much about! No – I’m not beating up on the adults … they too, have been programmed away from their natural state of dreaming big!

How does this all work:

The Universe is set up to bring to you what your vibration is calling for. That is the Law of Attraction at work. Your brain is set up to keep you within your belief systems. If you have a desire to be wildly successful in your career … but you have a belief (an old story) that tells you that will never happen for you. You have a conflict going on!

You need to get your vibration and your brain on the same path!

Let me show you how powerful your vibration and your brain working together is. Watch this short video and follow along with me:

Did you go beyond the first spot? I’m going to say you did … (let me know in the comments). Why is that? Didn’t you go as far as you could the first time?

Here is what happened:

You set out an intention… which created a vibration….You visualized that intention happening… which told your brain what you wantedAnd in less than 3 minutes it manifested!

You didn’t have any “old stories” that told you – you couldn’t do this. So this intention was not in conflict with your beliefs. Your vibration (Law of Attraction) and your brain were on the same path … and you quickly and easily manifested what you wanted!

You ought to be doing the Happy Dance right now… realizing how powerful you are … how easily you can indeed create what you want!

The Magic:

The magic happens when your vibration and beliefs are on the same path. If you aren’t seeing what you want manifest in your life … You need to start checking your beliefs. Start telling new stories about your life! In the video I asked you to see what you wanted … know it … feel it. Bring those qualities to the desires you want to manifest.

Talk more about what works then what doesn’t work…. The more you make a big deal about what works in your life … the more you shift those old stories … you rewire your brain to believe that things always work out for you!

Use your magic – Abra Cadabra!
