Delay
Can Reveal Doubts

Confident
Expectation! The feeling of "confidence" is the
assurance that your desire IS on its
way. And getting to that place where we have no
doubt is one reason why there is often a delay in
receiving what we know is coming. We need time
to work through our doubt.
Once
I had attracted the "Perfect
Condo",
the "Perfect
Realtor"
and the "Perfect
Financier"
I was ready to do the "work" of negotiating for
the purchase of the Harbourside
Condo.
I
was so in "the flow" that the negotiations went
quickly and smoothly and within 24 hours we were
able to agree on the price I wanted to
pay.
Now,
the final action needed to complete this Real
Estate deal, was to sell the Downtown
Condo.
This
"should have" happened quickly. The market was
perfect! The Downtown Condo was in a
VERY trendy location of Victoria. It was the
ONLY Condo for sale in one of the most sought
after complexes. It was large, freshly painted and
well decorated. We had it priced just right. It
received plenty of attention in the media and Open
House was well attended. Yet the offers were not
forthcoming.
After
five weeks, we still had not one offer. And we were
pushing very close to the date on which we should
have been closing. I felt confused. I was doing all
that I knew to do to attract the Perfect Buyer.
I was maintaining my focus on where I wanted
to be rather than on where I actually was. I was
following everything I teach to others about Law of
Attraction.
Finally,
I simply had to admit, "I don't know what it is
that I need to know to complete this
manifestation." My request
became: "Universe/God, show me what I
need to know, say or do to bring this to
completion."
Within
24 hours I had the answer to my prayer. Way in the
back of my mind I was questioning, "Is it really
God's Will that I live in such a luxurious
home?" My entire religious upbringing had so
ingrained the message that luxury was sin, and that
message was still vibrating in me, causing the sale
of my Downtown Condo to be delayed.
But
what can a person do about such an old "tape" that
is ingrained deeply into our
psyche? Well, my next request
was: "Show me the Truth that I need to know
so this 'tape' will no longer have effect."
Again, within 24 hours I had the answer to my
prayer.
That
night I listened to a cassette tape I received from
Abraham-Hicks
and I learned that wanting "God" to decided
what is good for me is a childish desire for
someone else to take responsibility for what
manifests in my life. I understood that Truth
immediately! I had wanted to "blame God" if I
did not fully receive my desire.
"And
the Truth shall set you free!" Indeed.
Once I took full responsibility for my choice of
where I wanted to live, the Downtown Condo sold
quickly and with a short extension on the closing
date ALL parties were happy.
Next
week I will share how using Law of Attraction to
manifest more of what you want in your life creates
a WIN-WIN-WIN situation for more people than you
might at first realize.
What
do you need to know, say or do to have the
Confident Expectation that you will indeed have
what you want?
