I shared a little of my friend Diane’s current situation in my recent post, How to Get Your Mind Out of the Gutter, and I have an update!

In one of Diane’s private emails to me more than a week ago, she mentioned that her husband was due for a big promotion in the next 1-2 years, but “maybe it will come through early or something . . .” She mentioned this very casually, and then we moved on to talk about other possibilities.

WELL - she and her husband recently got the news that it is indeed very likely that his promotion will be happening early!!! Nothing is written in stone yet so they’re just taking it a day at a time, but I was hopping up and down in my chair when she told me that!

Do you see the beauty of the Law of Attraction in this experience? She wasn’t hooked on the possibility as a solution. She didn’t start plotting ways she could make it happen. She just considered the possibility and then let it go and let the universe work out the details. I love that!

One of the most difficult things I’ve had to learn as I’ve begun to master conscious use of the Law of Attraction is LETTING GO.

I admit it; I’ve always been a bit of a control freak. Not just a control freak though - more like a MARTYR! My thoughts always sounded something like this: “It’s all up to me; no one will help me out, I have to help myself. No one else will give this the same attention and focus that I will, so I guess I have to do it myself. Other people are lucky, but not me. I have to work hard to get anywhere in life; it’s a fact I’ve come to accept. Oh, woe is me, woe is me…” LOL I’m joking on some of that, but not really! Overall, those are exactly the type of thoughts I’ve had for a large portion of my life.

And of course, with that type of focus, what do you think I experienced more often than not? Little help from the universe (or anyone else), and the need for me to do everything myself!

Even when I would set intentions and try to attract certain experiences or qualities into my life, I’d try to FORCE them to happen on my own by coming up with an elaborate plan - which almost never worked out the way I hoped.

Ah, but when I started learning how to ALLOW, the universe began working on my behalf. That doesn’t mean I never take action; I definitely do. But I take action when and how I feel PROMPTED to do so. If I don’t feel that inner nudge to move in a certain direction, then I simply wait patiently and KNOW that my desire is being formed and delivered by the universe.

In fact, I’m working on something pretty exciting right now. I’m attracting something that’s bigger than I’ve ever attempted before. I’m not going to say what it is quite yet, but I’ll share the details when it arrives. But this time I’m purposely NOT taking action. I’m visualizing every day, feeling the feelings of having it now, and waiting excitedly to see what the universe will do for me. And over the past couple of days I’ve been getting some really neat synchronicities popping up in my face - almost like the universe is saying, “I got your request and I’m working on it; keep visualizing!” Okey dokey!!!

Anyway, my point is - letting go and allowing should be a VERY big part of anything you try to manifest. You’re not supposed to conceive a desire and then plot and plan possible ways YOU can make it happen on your own. There’s nothing wrong with doing that, really - but then you’re not using the Law of Attraction; you’re using the law of ACTION. Big difference.

P.S. I almost forgot to mention that Diane has other good things happening too! She’s decided to definitely move back to her true love, writing - and she’s already getting offers of jobs and other opportunities. She and I are even going to collaborate on a project very soon. Needless to say, I think she’s moving in the right direction and taking ALL of the right steps to make her lost job seem like a teeny, inconsequential blip on the radar of her life! You go, Diane!
