There’s something in the air, right now, it seems. Just as the focus has shifted to using LOA to bring in the finances, I’m getting what Steve Pavlina calls “beta reflections” with all kinds of interesting tips and tidbits directed purely along those lines. In fact, after my little luck jaunt last week (or was it the week before) where I found all those coins in the street, it seems like there’s been some kind of quantum jump and I got out of the car the other day to find a coin of the gold variety! $2 may not sound like much, but it’s as far up the scale you can get before you shift to notes. I’m thinking that’s a GOOD sign. If I start finding notes lying around, I’ll let you know…
Meanwhile, the tips I’m most getting pushed to follow are to start thinking of myself earning two or three times as much as I’m getting now. That one’s not an issue, I’ve done that repeatedly before and it’s worked every time. Could be interesting to see how much faster it works (6 months is the record) with the other foundations in place first. I’m going to set up a ‘wealth fountain’ just like Steve has (another post I stumbled on, just as I was thinking of opening and setting up the feng shui fountain I got from my Mum). Finally, while I’ve had a treasure chest in my room for a while, it’s been hidden. I keep seeing bigger and bigger tip jars and other glass receptacles everywhere I go and I think the message is that I need to have that kind of symbol of wealth out on display, not hidden in fear of losing it (definitely not something I want to affirm, although I didn’t think of it that way until I started considering putting it out and the fears came up).
I finally got hold of Tim Ferriss’ book “The Four Hour Workweek” and oh boy was that a fun read. It took four days, but the implementation is going to take a bit longer. In the very first chapter there was a heading “Ask for forgiveness, not permission” and it just clicked - that’s the approach I need to take to finally shift away from the victim mentality left over from the workplace bullying I dealt with over the last few years. I’m bearing it in mind, and the difference in how powerful and self-directing I feel is incredible!
It truly is a book for the new paradigm, and the first people to jump onto riding the wave he talks about are really and truly going to be the magnates of the next millennium. If you haven’t got hold of it, please do yourself a favour and grab it - but even more importantly, read it with an open mind! If you hear yourself thinking “that wouldn’t work in my situation” or something similar, think again. The only rules with power over us are the ones we choose to accept. Even the most apparently stringent organisation (and I’ve worked in government, so I know) can be brought around to flex the rules if they have enough reason to. In fact, probably the most common complaint about government departments IS how they bend those rules that are supposed to apply to everyone. The key word to remember is “interpretation”. That, and what I said above: the only rules with power over us, are the ones we choose to accept.
But back to the topic. I’ve had a couple of inspirational ideas I’m plotting out and planning on following up, and things are getting so exciting. The dreams I put in my workbook are starting to seem more achievable, and the ways I’m getting inspired to chase them could deliver them way faster than I would have thought possible. There really are no restrictions on the possibilities once you open your mind up to them. Anything IS possible. It’s amazing, inspiring, humbling and mind-boggling all at the same time. I have to say, though, that the absolute key to achieving with LOA is definitely taking action. All the inspiration and visualisation in the world will serve you nothing if you don’t follow up on it. That’s my learning process, and the bottleneck that holds all my goals in check. Even small actions, I’m finding, can have fantastically big results - not least in shifting the inertia so you can take the next, slightly bigger action.
Once the ball starts rolling, though, I gotta say, this is one helluva ride!
