E2 Experiment #1 - I am a powerful creator!

I am so excited to share this post with you today! I recently picked up the book E Squared by Pam Grout. (www.pamgrout.com) If you are interested in her books, check out her website! I had come across this book while looking for a new read and passed on it, but then I read a post from someone else who had done the experiments she provides and had success with them. I took that as a sign that I was supposed to get this book and read it!

I am going to share with you my results from every experiment she shares in this book. I will briefly go over the experiment, but ultimately, if you want to try them then I strongly encourage you to get her book!!!

Her first experiment is to prove to ourselves that we really are powerful creators! Very easily, you are supposed to ask for a blessing of any kind. You're supposed to give this blessing 48 hours to come into existence. In those 48 hours, give attention to it and ask for recognition that you were the creator of this blessing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Blessing: 
I decided to ask for a financial blessing. I didn't put a number or amount with it, I just wanted one of any amount! I did something extra for myself to continuously remind me throughout the day to give attention to this financial blessing, which was setting an alarm on my phone every two hours. This helped a lot because one of the days I was working, so it helped bring my attention back to my blessing if I got distracted. 

My Results:  I mentioned before that the first day of doing this experiment I had to work. Arriving home from work, I went to grab a snack which turned out to be a yogurt. Now, we buy the big boxes of yogurt and share them with my in-laws. I noticed that the box of yogurt was almost gone and mentioned that to my husband being that we just bought them a few days ago! He told me it was probably his dad. And I nonchalantly said, "Okay, he can buy the next box then." Before I go any farther, I want to make note that I wasn't complaining that they were gone so quickly at all, just taking note of it. In fact, I didn't have any bad feelings towards it at all!

So, after dinner that same night my father in law asked me how much a box of the yogurt was - I said I'm not sure, $7 or $8. He replied with, "Okay, because I'm going to buy the next box." I immediately turned to my husband and said, "WOW, How is that for creation?!" With the help of my husband pointing it out to me, I realized that this was my financial blessing. It may have only been for a few dollars, but I know that I was the one that created it. There is absolutely no doubt about it! I was so excited and knew this came from doing this experiment!!

With that result, I also felt more blessed for the money that I have and the fact that all my bills are paid and I don't have to worry about them! And, while working I was more grateful and appreciated every sale we had that day! So not only did it make me focus on my blessing, but it made me feel more grateful for what I already had!

So I hope you enjoyed today's post because I was thrilled to share it with you today! I am currently doing her next experiment and when I am done, I will share those results with you as well! In addition, I want you to know that there is a lot more to her book than what I've shared and the experiments. It is a funny, easy read!

The Method - Desire for Money

I want to share with everyone a method that has been working for me and has given me results. Now, everyone is different and what might work for me might not work for you and vice versa. However, when it comes to my own happiness, I keep an open mind on trying new things!

I learned this method from Napoleon Hill's book Think and Grow Rich. If you are able to pick this book up, it has helped me greatly! Definitely worth the read. There are quite a few steps in the method.

1. Fix your mind on the exact amount of money you wish to bring forth in your life. It is important to be definite on the amount because your subconscious mind plays off of what the conscious mind tells it. So if you are saying that you want plenty or enough money, your subconscious mind will give you whatever belief you hold about money to be true. So if you don't think you deserve money, the amount that will be enough will turn out to be ZERO. 

2. Determine what you will give back to the world for the money you are wishing to receive. As I've learned from Napoleon Hill and Bob Proctor, there is no such thing as something for nothing. According to the law of attraction, what we focus on we bring into our realities. Yes, while that is true - I also believe we need to show our love and appreciation for the world we live in by setting goals for ourselves and intending to reach them on a daily basis with positive mindset.

3. Establish a definite date when you intend to receive the amount you have desired. Whatever time frame that feels right to you, will work the best.

4. Create a definite plan (that word definite just keeps coming up because it is so important) that you will do to carry out to achieve this desire. It might be something like, "My plan is to give back by ______ in order to receive my desire of $_______ by __________." Also, now is the time to decide whether or not you are READY to make this commitment and set forth on this plan of yours.

5. The plan that you have put together in step 4 should now be written down into a concise, clear statement that feels right and resonates within yourself and makes it easy to see this desire coming into your reality. 

6. Finally, one of the most important steps! You want to read this statement of yours TWICE daily. I recommend once when you wake up and once before you go to bed. At these two times of the day, your mind is less likely to come up with doubt and fears that will prevent you from achieving your goal. As you read the statement, see it coming true and feel what it would be like to have the amount of money you are looking to obtain. Believe you are already in possession of the money!! 

You can even use this method to achieve a goal that is not related to money. It is whatever feels right to you and whatever you are looking to obtain into your life, whether it is money, love, health, etc. Do what feels right to you. If it doesn't feel right to you, then you are not going to be able to easily see, believe, and feel the desire at hand.

Never Stop Learning

I want to remind everyone to continue their self-growth and always continue to learn! Just because we are no longer in school doesn't mean we have to stop learning! 

Every day, there is always something that can be learned in any area of your life. We choose not to seek the knowledge, but the knowledge is vital for our self-growth and performance as human beings!

You might say something along the lines of, "Well, I'm not a good learner or reader." STOP! I don't want to hear that negativity!! You are better than that. I have faith that you can continue learning and you should too! Sometimes learning new things gives me the inspiration I need to get to that next step in life. I love continuing my growth. It is something that makes me excited to get out of bed in the morning! We all should be excited for this!

My challenge for you today is to get up and learn something; whether it is at the grocery store or in a book. Try to learn something new for your soul and see how good it feels!

Comfort Zone

Comfort Zone - A place, situation, or level where someone feels confident and comfortable.
(Merriam Webster) 

We all love to be in our comfort zones, right? This is a place where we don't have any anxiety or fear or doubt so it's only normal that we wouldn't want to leave this relaxing, promising place. 

Through my recent studies on the law of attraction and getting what you want, I've come to a realization. One that I think is very important. I am not one who takes risks. I'm more so the one saying, "That sounds risky, maybe we shouldn't do that". And what that is, is my fear holding me back. I know this. We have to learn to take risks! It is essential to grow. 

I want you to ask yourself. What is in my comfort zone? You should realize that all that is in your comfort zone is what you currently have. Now, you might say well I don't like having a lack of money. That is a good point. You may not like it, but for some reason you are comfortable with it. This is when you should do some work on yourself to try and figure out why you are so comfortable with what you have and where you are in life. That is a different subject altogether. 

Ask yourself, "What do I really want? If I could have anything right now what would it be?" You might answer with, I want a beautiful, big home on a farm with a barn. As of right now, your desire is outside of your comfort zone. If it was inside of your comfort zone, you would already have it. And this is what I mean when I say we need to take risks. The risk is removing ourselves from our levels of comfort and going to where we have never been before. When we are outside of it, we will be on the same playing field as our desire. In turn, we will be closer to it and once we are comfortable in that area, we will  be in the same zone as our desire, and quite possibly changing it from its imaginative state to it's physical form.

I want to challenge everyone to do one positive thing today that removes you from your comfort zone. I know this may be scary, but see if you can do it! Challenge yourself!

Lets Make a Change

I strongly believe that the subconscious mind plays a strong role in the Law of Attracting what we want. Our subconscious hold our beliefs and what we have been programmed to prior in life through feelings, memories, experiences, etc. For example, you might have a memory of when you were a child and you ate tacos for the first time. You were excited to try something new, however for some reason they made you sick. So now, you are programmed one of two ways - you hate tacos now or you don't like to try new things because that one time you did, it made you sick. Or you could be holding on to both!

If you are stuck in a spot of attracting what you don't want then most likely you are feeding your subconscious mind with feelings of lack, fear, doubt. All we have to do is convert those bad feelings and emotions to good ones! Once we convert them, they will be given to our subconscious mind.

Our subconscious mind does not fight back what we are sending it. It will simply comply with whatever commands we give it. So, if you are feeling a negative feeling from a certain experience, your subconscious mind believes it to be true (even if it is not), and will give you the results that match those feelings.

Lets try and change some of those bad feelings with positive affirmations! There are affirmations for every area of life. You can even make up your own!

Some of my daily affirmations consist of the following: 

I see myself in high places spiritually, emotionally, and physically. 
I bring forward opportunity after opportunity to myself. 
I am successful and wealthy.
I now see myself with abundance and prosperity.

Be Your Own Creator!

You are your own creator! 

When will all of mankind begin to realize that each and every person has their own destiny right in the palm of their hands? It's true. We are our own creators. Not many of us realize the true power we hold within ourselves. That is the biggest tragedy of them all!

If only everyone knew the control they had over their lives. Now obviously we realize we control our lives to a certain extent. A lot of us don't see that we control EVERYTHING about our lives. We can control the desires and the struggles. 

We create our struggles by putting fear, worry, doubt, etc. into these worries. By giving them attention with those negative thoughts, we are feeding them - much like giving water to a plant. With the proper care, you will have a beautiful garden (positive) - or a field full of weeds (negative). You just have to choose which you want and apply the proper techniques in your life to reach your goal.

So in essence, if we want that beautiful garden, we have to water the seeds in the correct fashion. Feed your mind positive thoughts about your desire, like gratitude, love, and faith. That is just the beginning; but a great start!

Be your own creator - don't wait until tomorrow, life is short!
