What Have You Manifested?

The Universal Laws work all the time, whether we're conscious of them or not. We may attract good things or bad things (in our opinion) and not understand why these things are coming into our lives. So, since the universal laws, and the law of attraction have been working for all of my life, I thought I'd take a look back and see exactly what I've manifested!

I'd like to share with you two major things I manifested into my life, before I even knew about the Universal Laws and the Law of Attraction.

The first BIG thing I manifested was my move from to CA. When I was 16, I visited CA and thought it was amazing and wonderful and felt that I HAD to move here. When I was in college I bought one of those large panoramic posters of the city of San Francisco and had it laminated. I hung it prominently over my bed where I saw it several times a day. When I graduated college the poster came with me and it hung over my bed there as well where I saw it every morning when I woke up and every night as I went to bed. At some point, I decided to answer some job ads out in California. I got a call to come out for an interview in the SF Bay area. I flew out, did the interview, went back to my hotel and got a call later the same day offering me the job! I accepted it, flew home, packed up my car with my belongings and moved out here! That was 14 years ago! Yes, it took several years to actually manifest that dream, but I did it, and without really doing anything specific to make it happen. Things take more time when we're not consciously focusing on manifesting them.

The second BIG thing I manifested that I hadn't even realized at the time was my husband. How? I was a single girl in my 30's and ready to settle down but things just weren't falling into place. I read the book "Finding True Love" by Daphne Rose Kingma and one of the exercises in it was to write a list to the Universe about what exactly I wanted in the perfect mate. I did that exercise (7-20-1998), wrote it all down, and put it aside. It wasn't until somewhat recently (several years later) that I found that notebook with the list written down inside it. I was amazed when I read how it described my husband's qualities exactly! Well, OK, he has a beard and I hadn't specified that I wanted someone with no facial hair, but it wasn't a deal breaker and I'm rather fond of it now. What matters is that the Universe delivered a person with the qualities that I DID specifiy. I find it truly amazing! I met my husband almost exactly one year after I wrote that list. At the end of the list I wrote down the note "Your soul knows the timing. True love WILL show up, when the time is right." It took a year for him to come into my life, but I got exactly what I wanted and when I was ready for him.

Now, as I said in the beginning, we have actually attracted EVERYTHING into our lifes that we're currently experiencing. But if you're like me, most of it was unconscious. I've attracted some good things and I've attracted some less than desirable things. But now that I'm armed with the knowledge about how the law of attraction works I can be an active participant in my manifesting. I know that this is not something that we become experts at overnight, but I'm excited about the prospect of being a part of manifesting my dream life!

What have YOU manifested? What WILL you manifest?

Honest Review - The 11 Forgotten Laws

I have finished listening to all 12 sessions of the audio course "The 11 Forgotten Laws" with Bob Proctor and Mary Morrissey. I have listened to each session at least two or more times so far. I truly enjoy listening to them as they are uplifting and inspiring. And they completely explain the Law of Attraction (and all the laws) in terms that are very easy to understand.

The 11 laws include: The Law of Thinking, Supply, Attraction, Receiving, Increase, Compensation, Non-Resistance, Forgiveness, Sacrifice, Obedience, and Success.

This is not a program where you purchase it, listen through it one time and then become an expert. This is definitely something that you'll want to listen to over and over. As well, you will want to continue your education of the laws with further readings.

This course also comes with the ebook "Working With the Law" by Raymond Holliwell which is really what the audio sessions go off of. Each audio session discusses a chapter and a law from the book.

My only disappointment is that I'm left feeling a little bit like "now what do I do?" Yes, there is a "workbook" if you can call it that. There are questions to answer after each chapter/audio session to help make sure you understood the messages they were trying to get across. But I'm a person who needs a little more hand holding. This information is absolutely wonderful, but now I need to know what to do with it. I have found myself going back to my copy of the book "Ask and It Is Given" by Esther and Jerry Hicks for some practical exercises in the Law of Attraction.

I definitely recommend finding an opportunity to listen to "The 11 Forgotten Laws" to enjoy their straightforward explanations of how the laws of the universe work.
