Keeping the Faith !

[Katie]

When the evidence all around you screams that your one desire in life is impossible, sometimes its difficult to keep the faith in the universal laws of attraction.

But if you do, we promise you that your faith will not be misplaced. The Number One mistake people make when utilizing the universal law of attraction is giving in to external reality -- the circumstances around them --that shout that what you're aiming for is impossible.

All too often, individuals see the conditions in their environment and automatically give up on the law. They allow themselves to become frustrated. Little do they realize that the universal laws of attraction are still at work -- even when they do become frustrated. Their frustration, you see, only attracts even more frustration.

This frustration and pessimism stems from a basic lack of faith in the law of attraction. It is understandable, of course, if you've never had the pleasure of putting the law to work for you. Society has conditioned us to think that the only way we can possibly believe something is to see it first.

The law of attraction, though, actually works backwards from what we would consider normal. You won't see your desires or goals until you firmly believe they will become a reality. In essence, you'll see it when you'll believe it.

If you keep the faith, though, and keep believing that the laws of attraction are at work for you, then you'll experience two exciting outcomes.


First; because your belief in the law never wavers, your desires will materialize sooner than you anticipated. And second, your staunch faith in the law of attraction allows you to confidently ignore the external evidence, no matter how loudly it might be screaming around you.

The universal laws of attraction are not only the amazing link to all of your dreams and desires, but these amazing laws can give you the confidence to ignore all the naysayers surrounding you.

Keeping the faith is, in the long run, a simply marvelous habit. When you believe in the universal laws of attraction, you'll find that if you truly have faith in your dreams -- if these are the things you sincerely want to manifest in your life -- and you march confidently in their direction, the law of attraction will gladly conspire with you to make them materialize.

While the law may not use an overnight delivery service, it will indeed deliver, if you do your part too!



When you make a list of your desires, you're basically telling the law of attraction that you're serious about success. But that's only half the battle in the game.

As you read over the list that you've expressly created, you need to bless it and allow it to be lifted up to the universe. Release your dreams and desires. Send them off so the universal laws of attraction may take them and mold them as opportunities to present themselves to you.

Even though they may be your very personal and very important goals, keep in mind that you're passing them on to the infinite wisdom of the universe. You're basically telling the universal law of attraction to do what needs to be done with these goals.

Don't worry. don't fret. Don't fear. Because once you release your most precious dreams to the universe, the entire infinite potential and wisdom of all creation is working toward manifesting them just for you through the law of attraction. That's right! The entire might of the world, nay, the entire universe is planning the best and quickest route to get these goals realized.

This means the universal law of attraction will have you bumping into people seemingly at random. But it wont be. You'll find telephone numbers you'll need to further your cause with greater ease. But that wont be an accident either. You'll notice that you are getting to where you want to be, if you just take the cues.

Once you realize your goals, don't be blind to coincidences. Once you realize your desires, take careful notice of who you meet and how willing they are to help you.

Indeed, the universal laws of attraction are the most powerful positive force you can have in your life. Use them wisely.

That part is for you Shawn ... take the cues !

[lilly]

Thank you for this post, it is very inspiring indeed!
I hope you won't mind me asking a question in your thread..

I was wondering in your experience with Loa if during the process of trying to manifest something you had gotten the contrary of what you aimed at, how would you explain it, and do you think it's a natural step to our "goal".

Thank you!

[2thetop]

lol......i love you katie  you just made me laugh and tear up from joy.  i cant tell you how much i appreciate your encouragement and friendship.  I really cant wait for the day i get to meet you and that blessed man of yours.

Awww Shawn, I love you too, you're the brother I never had

@Lilly, well yes it did happen. During the process of attracting him back, he wanted to go out and date other women. I fought this idea with all my might. The more I fought against it, the more pain I felt, the more he wanted to do it. I couldn't understand why things weren't working out the way I wanted them to...I couldn't stand to even think of him with another woman (and I actually tried to kill myself when he told me this    ) Members here (Leyline, Sweet Spirit, Schenderson, etc......practically everyone) told me to let him do whatever he wanted to do. That I was too controlling. About 10 days later, I told him he could go anywhere he wanted without me and see anyone he wanted without me. He went out once, and came home surprisingly early, and never went out again alone. He said he didn't want to date other women anymore.


The Universe wanted to show me that letting him do his thing was part of letting go. When I did let go, he didn't even feel the need to do what I didn't want him to do. It was surprisingly easy. And I almost killed myself for that ??!!

So, it was another step toward my goal. Everything is a stepping stone when you believe

Thank you for your answer Katie! I read your thread and I can see a lot of myself in what you went through! Your story is so inspiring and gives me a lot of hope.
This is so confusing when you try to apply loa seriously and that events seem to unfold, but in a totally unexpected way and not a positive one at that.
The only reason that comes to mind is that it is a necessary part of the whole process or a stepping stone as you say..half of me also try to push away the thought of possible delusionement though I admit It also occured to me that if signs were negative, maybe it was a way for the universe to tell us that our goal is unreachable??
 It is like an inner battle of sort!
I would like to ask you, what technique helped you the most in trying to manifest your wish?
Also, probably out of topic..but I don't know where else to post or ask this..if you have a negative vision ( the sort that you have when you're between waking and sleeping) what could be the significance? ( Has this ever happened to you?)

Thank you!!

I saw a beautiful video with Abraham hicks on Faith. She stated Faith is when you experience your desires vibrationally without having any evidence of its manifestation. Believe and you SHALL recieve, it is law.

@Lilly :

It also occured to me that if signs were negative, maybe it was a way for the universe to tell us that our goal is unreachable??

I believe no goal is unreachable. Maybe what you think are negative signs are only mental blocks ! The same for what you call negative visions....Life is a journey, and only you hold the map.

Are you familiar with EFT ?

I would like to ask you, what technique helped you the most in trying to manifest your wish?

What helped me the most was : Faith and gratitude. And EFT and Ho'oponopono. But the essential keys were Faith and gratitude. Detachment, or letting go, were part of it too. But I'm still working on detachment, I'm not as detached as I thought I was, that's why when people call me a hero, it doesn't feel right.

Hope this helps !

Hey lilly,
hope you dont mind me jumpin in here.  Just something to think about.  Dont take this too seriously.  As in have some fun with it.  Enjoy the process and really take in what lashark posted.  Katie is right, that negative resaults are only coming from blocks.  Try eft and other methods posted about on the forums.  As for the feelings delusion.  Dont worry about those.  Its good to recognize those thoughts.  Those thoughts and feelings are normal.  You are reprogramming your brain and setting a new coarse for life.  So when you hear them just laugh a bit and say, yes i hear you, this is a little diffirent then the way i usually do things, but this is where we are going.  Have you ever been in the car with someone, running a little behind, and they know a short cut that you have never taken?  What usually happens?  Most people I know start to freak out a little bit.  I dont know this way, what if it isnt shorter, what if this happens or that happens and it takes us longer and then were lost.  Well thats what your brain is doing. 

And like Katie said, nothing is unreachable.  If you want it, if you truly want it.  You will get it.  It may take a little while, but you will get it.  So know where you want to get with out a doubt, set your coarse, have faith you will get there, and enjoy the scenery on the trip.

Thank you so much Katie and 2thetop..

I was thinking that the negative vision was a sign that I wasn't focused enough that I needed to do some more work on myself and that i was not quite on the right track yet. The more I think of it and the more I am convinced that there is an inner fight between doubt and faith, negative thoughts pops out now and then without me always realizing it and I reckon a lot of my fears did manifest (as well as good things).

I am reading different threads here and they are very inspiring, sometimes I am confident and other times I relapse..it is difficult to keep at it all the time.

@Katie, I checked out a few videos on EFT on youtube and I'm going to try it! I found out that some music of meditation really helped to soothe me and calm my mind a little. Oh I noticed you spoke French, I'm from France myself!

@2thetop, Thank you so much for you post, it really raised my mood, I must say I've had a few success stories which makes me confident and faithful on loa but when it comes to relationships and when the outcome depends on someone else as much as yourself, there is doubt coming now and then. But Katie's story is definitely a mood 'raiser'

This post on faith is certainly coming at the right time for me

[Katie]

Lilly, where are you from ? I live in Nice  but I'm American, been living here for many years.

The more I think of it and the more I am convinced that there is an inner fight between doubt and faith, negative thoughts pops out now and then without me always realizing it and I reckon a lot of my fears did manifest (as well as good things).

There is always an inner battle between doubt and faith. The more you "practice" LOA, the easier it gets to replace negative thoughts with positive ones. 

I spent alot of time reading threads here, I read everything I could, and it really helped alot. I wrote down all the inspiring things in a little notebook that I still carry around with me in my bag. whenever I was in a waiting line or whatever, I would take my little notebook out and read and read and read. Do look up on EFT it is a very powerful tool, here's a good link for you :

[lashark]

Well regarding doubt, I believed in LOA the first time I watched the secret but there were still some things I had trouble understanding, the more I read, the more I did things, the more I learned and grew, the doubt just went away because I knew that every single bit of this is true, Its true : ) Relax, when it comes to doubt, the more you learn the faster it goes away because things start happening. So you will become more and more sure, and you just dont doubt anymore.

As for the negativity, well the reason they keep coming is because youve been holding yourself in that kind of vibration for a long time so LOA brings you more negative thoughts, to have more predominantely positive thoughts all you have to do is focus on positive things, then LOA will give you more of those positive thoughts, when you find yourself thinking something that doesnt feel good, dont fight it, dont try to figure it out, dont avoid it or ignore it, dont be scared of it, dont get mad or beat yourself up, dont victimize yourself. In doing any of that, you are just accepting their presence and focus on them. Notice the negative thought then use that notice as your chance to make the decision to shift your focus unto something else, whether its something joyful, positive or anything. Just shift your focus. Its easy to shift your focus. So easy.

In time, depending on how consistent you are, your thoughts will be mostly good feeling thoughts and it would take alot of time and effort for you to revert back.

honestly I dont even get real negative thoughts anymore, I think the worst I get would be bored or frustrated. . . And it only lasts for a couple minutes, I dont purposely shift my focus anymore either, Im just like "whatever" and they just dissipate and I always find myself focusing on awesome things naturally and easily, : ) I love LOA. Thats a manifestation in itself really,

Is amazing because I used to be depressed and angry.
I have an amazing time just being alive and I love my mind for all teh beautiful things it creates for me. I swear  this stuff is so real and you will feel soooooo amazing. Just man up and place the effort where it benefits you most, which is your desires and things that make you feel good. Not self pity or fear.

[lashark]

Lmao Katie! Oh my goodness great minds think alike ! I think we were both replying at the same time and both of our first paragraphs pretty much say the same thing! Lol.

[lilly]

I live in the south west, around Bordeaux! I didn't imagine you lived in France!

Every time  I feel down or like I'm not making any progress I come back here and read some success stories, it usually raises my mood and help
It is discouraging sometimes when it takes so much effort to stay positive and a negative event can make you feel down for days.
When my reality turns out to be different than what i'm trying to manifest the negative thoughts, and mental conversations keep popping and I just can't make them stop, it can take a while to get back on the positive track!


Thank you very much for the link I am going to check this out now!
