Have you ever asked the universe for something and gotten a result that wasn’t what you intended? When wording our intentions and speaking our desires, it pays to be very specific!
Consider these examples:
Shannon wants to be debt-free, so she states an intention: “I want to pay off all my debt.” Suddenly she starts receiving demands for payment in full on loans she’s been paying in installments, or she receives notices about old debts she’s forgotten about.

If you could change anything in your life right now, what would it be? And why haven’t you done it yet? If you’re like most of us, the answer lies in your existing beliefs.
We often forget the powerful role our beliefs play in creating what we want. We can visualize, affirm, set goals, and work hard till the cows come home — but if we don’t believe something is possible, we will resist the formation of it in our lives.

As we learn more about using the law of attraction consciously in our lives, we become masters at visualizing, affirming, and attracting what we desire. We learn how to infuse our desires with emotion and power, we learn how to raise our vibrations through joyful thoughts and align ourselves more fully with the circumstances we want to bring about.
However, most of us forget one crucial step in the process: allowing. Allowing is a multi-faceted phase in the creation process, and it can be confusing for those of us who haven’t had much exposure to the concepts.

Leon posted a great question in the comments on my last post, The Ease of Being in Flow, and I want to expand on something he brought up:
“cool. I also enjoy the flow. but something bothers me about not striving, struggling, fighting. they say to always go with the stream and to accept. But as a person with foresight and intuition I know that sometimes the correct path lies upstream, so to speak. For instance, I wasn’t obligated to work during high school, but I did. And it sucked. I hated it, and all the grease and harsh cleaning chemicals damaged my health. But looking back I’m glad I did it. It’s added permanent flavor to my life. It’s given me some pretty unusual perspectives that I now value a great deal. anyway, I guess it’s a matter of integrity. if I simply say “yes” to everything then where are my morals and ideals? would you clarify that bit for me? I mean, how do you stay in flow and still reach your goals? or is the flow the goal for you?thanks for writing. I like your style and confidence

Have you ever experienced moments when everything seemed to just flow? Moments when you didn’t have to struggle or fight or force things to happen? It’s as if there were a giant hand holding a magic wand a few paces ahead of you at every step, magically shifting circumstances so that everything goes your way.
As a writer, I’m keenly aware of “the flow.” It usually means the difference between my words spilling smoothly and effortlessly onto the page, or each word being wrung stiltedly and painfully from my resistant mind.

I find myself thinking about blessings a lot lately; more specifically, the concept of feeling blessed.
In a recent article, I wrote about the bittersweet periods in life when we find ourselves struggling through difficulties at the same time we’re experiencing moments of joy, and the importance of focusing more on the happiness and gratitude we feel rather than pain and fear.
