Working your core-muscles
One of the major blocks to manifesting the life we desire comes in a package called our "core beliefs". I was listening to a radio show earlier this week and the following phrases kept coming up:
*I am defective
*I am not worthy of love
*I am unlovable
*I am unavailable
*No matter how hard I try, I cannot succeed
*I am destined to fail, be poor, be miserable...
These belief systems live in our ego and they stem from many different places: our childhood, soul imprinting from a past life, societal beliefs... It doesn't matter where core beliefs come from, what's more important is that they exist. In order to mainfest and receive what we truly desire from the Universe, we have to be willing to believe we can have that object of our desire no matter what.
Core beliefs and fear go hand-in-hand and it's known that fear is not the appropriate vibration to attract anything into your life, besides more fear of course. The laws of attraction state that where our thoughts go, energy will flow. If we are fearfully attempting to attract a love relationship yet believe we are unlovable, we will be attracting a partner that will see us as unlovable. If we want abundance in the form of financial freedom and we believe that no matter what, we are destined to be poor...well, guess what? We will attract the situation of being poor. We can think day and night, "I have a love relationship and I feel so loved," but if our energy is still holding onto that belief that we are unlovable, we will not attract that ultimate love relationship.
This leads me to the importance of loving your life as it is right now. Yes, even if you are single, find peace with it. If you are poor, find peace with that. You MUST accept your current reality in the present in order to manifest what you desire. We only manifest in present tense, not in the past or the future. Thus, our focus must be on finding gratitude in the present. The frequency of gratitude will attract. The best way to shift your own frequency into a state of attracting what you want isn't to see yourself as "single" or "poor" but to see yourself as "independent" and "someone who saves money". With core beliefs and fears, the easiest way to get around them is to change them. Do your work to come up with your basic fears about the situation you are trying to manifest and change the wording, change your thoughts and ultimately change your belief system. It's as simple as sitting down, making a list and posting it up so that you can affirm everyday that you have all the money in the world to do what you love and to help others and you feel so successful.
Core beliefs don't have to be bad, either. We have many positive core beliefs. A few examples are:
*I am always on time.
*I can eat whatever I want and never gain weight.
*People like me.
*I have great intuition.
*I look great and fashion forward in whatever I wear.
*I am wonderful at multi-tasking.
If all else fails, remember your positive core belief system. For example, you might not be able to immediately come to peace with being "single" but you may be able to say: "People like me. Therefore, I can easily attract a romantic partner that is in my highest good." Another example is that you might not be able to believe you can have more financial abundance, but you could say, "I am wonderful at multi-tasking so I can definitely do an on-the-side business to generate more income for my family." With the assistance of your positive core beliefs and some rewording of your negative core beliefs, you'll be well on your way to manifesting success. It's this positive vibration which attracts. Stay out of fear, love what is and everything will fall into place.
