*** Article: 9 Perceptions for Creating Abundance - By Roberta A. Swartz ***
------------------------------------------------------------
While much information has been written about the steps for participating in successful manifestation, some key elements that are less explored have to do with our attitudes, our beliefs and our perceptions.
These unmeasurable, intangible parts of the human experience are the very ones that affect our relationship with the universal intelligence.
9 Perceptions for Creating Abundance
1. Focus on what is good.
Learning to live in this way can be challenging, but with desire, awareness and practice we can each learn how to create a life of greater peace.
First we must choose to live in trust rather than in fear. Then, when we become aware of those moments when fear takes its grip, we can remind our self that we have a choice. Rather than focusing on what is "bad" or "wrong" or "unfair" we can change how we think.
I have lived a lifetime of creating meaningful outcomes with successful results even when all odds seemed to be against me by focusing on what is good. My husband and I trust that we are well supported and that everything turns out fine even when life throws us a curve ball.
2. Take action and let go with trust.
The best approach for successful manifestation occurs when we have both faith in the life force to do its part AND we are willing to take action and do our part too.
Much like a bird in flight, we must find a working balance between flapping our wings and knowing when to rest.
This ebb and flow between taking action and letting go is founded in trust; trust in our self to do our best and trust in the life force to support our goal.
This is similar to when we are young and we instinctively trust our parents to do what they say they will do. This intrinsic knowing demonstrates a different attitude of "Thanks for your help. I feel peaceful and I trust that my needs are met."
Although many people struggle to live in this way, the life force hasn't any ego interference and easily creates congruent responses that support the continuum of life. Just as we are more inclined to give to others when we know our efforts are received with joy and appreciation, the same holds true for the creative life force. An "attitude of gratitude" works to our advantage because it is a respectful and humble way to live.
