Each day, when I turn on my computer, I look for the daily quote from Abraham-Hicks, all gems of Law of Attraction wisdom. This one is worth its weight in gold.
“It is as easy to create a castle as a button. It’s just a matter of whether you’re focused on a castle or a button. “
For one you might need a button mold and, for the other, excavation equipment, but back at the drawing board things would look pretty much the same. There’s you, the dreamer and creator imagining, getting clear, envisioning and taking action. The skills of attraction are generic – they work on big, small and everything in between and on the easy and on the seemingly impossible.
It’s a good idea to practice creating and manifesting on the easier, smaller, less emotionally charged stuff first, the kind where you’re happy if it happens but it’s OK if it doesn’t.
Here are a few examples of “mundane manifesting” or “the art of deliberate creation in everyday life” to inspire you and remind you that there are endless opportunities to practice the art of deliberate creation.
I wasn’t looking for love or money or a new car or a book contract or any of those biggies. I was looking for a power washer to clean the mold off my deck so I could stain and treat it, something that has no emotional charge for me. I didn’t think the kind of thoughts that arise when I desire the ‘bigger ticket items” like, “ I don’t deserve a power washer,” or “I am too short, old, stupid or incompetent for a power washer.“ I didn’t have limiting beliefs about power washers or baggage weighing me down. I just wanted a power washer to clean my deck and I happened to know a guy who had one.
I didn’t have his number so I figured I’d stop by his house. As I rounded the curve toward East Caret Bay, guess who was standing in the road – looking straight at me? I stopped, rolled down my window and said, “Hi, neighbor. How are you doing? Could I borrow your power washer.” He said “Sure.” I said “I’ll be back,” and drove away grinning from ear to ear. “Thank you Universe (God, Higher power, source)” and “What a magnificent manifestor am I”
Here’s another, more dramatic scenario. My transmission died with the time between slipping gears and death being approximately two hours. I needed a new transmission and wheels in the meantime. Within two hours, I had both.
A friend responded to my call for help and transformed into my knight in shining armor. He led me to a local mechanic who ‘just happened’ to have a transmission for my car and the time to put it in. I rented a car from a friend who ‘just happened’ to have a car rental business and I had transportation and a new transmission in no time. WOW. “Thank you Universe” and “What a magnificent manifestor am I.”
Last but not least, asked if I could do a professional task with complications, I hemmed and hawed, jumped through a few hoops and realized I wasn’t sure I even wanted to do it. So, imagine my relief at getting an email saying the problem had been solved and my services would no longer be required! Whew. You know the drill by now – “Thank you Universe” and “What a magnificent manifestor am I.”
Many people call these strokes of luck. I call it deliberate creation at its best.
Take an item on your to-do list that is pretty neutral and not fraught with angst and emotion. Plant the seeds of it’s being a done deal. Imagine it happening in a surprisingly easy, fun way and do a run through in your mind to iron out any possible kinks. Whenever you notice your mind heading toward the worst case scenario exit – change lanes, pass negative thoughts and proceed to your true destination, the fulfillment of your desire.
As with anything, deliberate creation requires practice. Like practicing an instrument, kicking a soccer goal, twirling on ice, knitting or taking our first wobbly upright steps, the more we practice the better we get. The more we want to practice because we enjoy the music, the game, skating, the click of the needless and walking through the world – the greater our chance of success. Manifesting is manifesting and, once a deliberate creator, always a deliberate creator. Get a bunch of buttons down and there’s no limit – gardens, castles, peace of mind, power washers, smooth sailing, a good nights sleep, world peace, the love of your life, your dream job, a new kitten. Purr.
Here’s to you, deliberate creator! As you look out and survey your magnificent manifesting, grin broadly and say, “Thank you Universe,” and “What a magnificent manifestor am I.”
