A Closed Door Is A Blessing In Disguise

Hello Friends,

Hope all is well. This is a great article from Beth McCain which reminds us to persevere through any challenge we may encounter. A closed door is really a message that it was not meant to happen in that manner. It can be easy to become frustrated when it seems that we keep getting rejected despite our best efforts to manifest what we want.

Challenges make us stronger. When we face an obstacle head on and overcome it, we grow stronger and smarter because of the experience. Take the opportunity to learn from every situation. Every moment can be used as a stepping stone to your dreams.

Have fun with your existence. When a door is closed simply say, "thank you". You're not saying thank you to the rejection. You are saying thank you to the Universe for not allowing you to go down the wrong path.

Keep striving for your best. You deserve it. Many blessings, and thanks for listening.

Law Of Attraction: When One Door Closes...

When you are faced with a challenge in your life and it feels as if doors are closing right and left, what do you do? Do you just accept the fact that things seem to be falling apart or do you rise to the occasion and keep moving forward? In the law of attraction, if you keep the focus on what you want, and a door closes, then this just means that many more doors will open that are just right for you.

Don't look at a 'closed door' as the end of an opportunity. See the 'closed door' as if you are definitely being told which path not to take and be looking for the many doors that will soon open for you. If you are focusing on what you want with positive expectations and a door closes, then without a doubt be looking for the other paths that will be wide open. The Universe knows what is behind the closed door and it obviously wasn't what would have worked for you. The Universe also knows what is behind every open door that is offered to you and it knows that these opportunities are the ones that you will want to pursue.

Trust in the Universe when something doesn't go 'just right'. The Universe has many ways to bring to you what you focus on through the law of attraction. When you tell it which door you have to go through it can take a much longer time for something to manifest because of the limited path you have placed on the desire. Seeing only the end result of what you want and then giving it to the Universe to take care of the 'how' will bring you your desire so much faster and possibly in a way that you had never even thought of.

Get into the habit of thinking positively and when something just doesn't work out realize that the Universe is helping to bring you what you have focused on. The Universe has cleared a particular path and knows the one that isn't the way to go. And when one door closes, another door always opens. Get into the mindset of remaining positive even during seemingly hard times. Those positive thoughts will emit out and come back to you in the form of exactly what you have focused on, or better.

Be open to the way things come to you and when that door closes, smile and realize that the Universe has something much bigger and better in mind to bring to you, as always, through the law of attraction.

The Signs Are All Around Us

Hello Friends,

Hope all is well. I love when the Universe gives us signs reminding us that what we are wanting is on the way. I think I like the signs more that the actual manifestations of what it was I was wanting. Getting excited about the sign is way of giving thanks to the Universe. This excitement fuels the manifestation process.

The signs are all around us. We need to be sure that we are mindful enough to be aware of them. We often ask for "things", but when the Universe gives us a means to get there, we sometimes ignore, or are simply blind to these sign. When we miss these signs it means that we are not properly aligned with the Universe.

Remember this. ASK, ANSWER, RECEIVE.

Ask for what you want. The Universe will always Answer. Then be ready to Receive. It is the receiving that is sometimes the hardest. We may not feel ready to act. We may not believe that we have the ability to act. This way of thinking is a waste of time. The Universe has lined everything up for you. When the opportunity is there. Grab it!

The following is another excellent article from Beth McCain. Heed the signs in your life and you will start to see amazing events unfold before your very eyes. Thanks for listening, and many blessings!


Law Of Attraction: The Use And Meaning Of Signs From The Universe

Ever since I began studying and applying the Law of Attraction, I have always received signs from the Universe. Some are signs of encouragement or inspiration and some are signs to act upon.

Some ask if it is a lack of faith in the Universe if you ask for a sign of encouragement. The answer really depends on how you look at it, but from my point of view I believe signs are here to give us encouragement just like you would give your child praise and encouragement. Encouragement in the form of signs serves as a catalyst to do more and be more.

Signs of encouragement or inspiration send your heart to new heights: You wonder how something is going to work out and you receive a clear sign from the Universe that it will. When I first began practicing the Law of Attraction, I was a professional costume designer. I was unsure of how I was going to make money at it, but I knew at the time that this was what I wanted to do. I kept my focus on costume designing and would look through magazines and sketch out costumes that I would love to make.

I started to specialize in the old time look of Judy Garland and Shirley Temple. I devised a plan to make children's costumes that were old fashioned; glorious fairy costumes, skunks, Little Rascals, and of course Shirley Temple. I wasn't sure what would sell well and I asked the Universe for a sign. I had to make at least twenty copies of one costume to sell at an industry show. I didn't receive what anyone would call a blatant sign telling me what to do. I stepped back and just released it into the Universe and thanked the Universe for the sign.

One day as I was picking up fabrics, I parked next to a car with the license plate that read, 'Shrlyrcks.' "Wow!" I thought to myself, "I think that is my sign!" I was so excited that this was leading me in the direction I needed to go. I went into the fabric store and the fabric needed for a Shirley Temple costume was 75% off, today only! Boom! Boom! Two signs in a row! These kinds of signs take your heart to a new level. You feel so taken care of when you have blatant signs. So I designed the costumes and sold every last one of them at the show and took many orders home with me. Just remember to expect the signs and thank the Universe in advance for the signs and the subsequent manifestation of what you have been attaining.

You can also have the kind of sign from the Universe that says, "Here's your sign! It's your time for your light to shine! Act on it!" This kind of sign can be unnerving if you aren't used to 'acting upon' something, but it's best if you do because the Universe lined up the situations and people for this moment for you to help attain the life and wants that you desire.

My husband, Lee, has had many of these in his life time. One of the early signs was when he was a young man wanting to go to sea. He would sit at the union hall for weeks on end in hopes of catching a ship. Many of the old sailors laughed up their sleeves at this young buck waiting to catch a ship. Seniority always got the ships and the newbies usually didn't. It was closing time in the union hall and everyone was leaving. It wasn't quite time to leave but it was five minutes away from the door being locked. Lee said it just hit him. He had to go to the restroom and couldn't wait. Everyone left as Lee went to the restroom before leaving. Then something in Lee whispered, "Stay right here until the very end!" Lee listened to the Universe and one minute before closing a ship came in needing crew. The man at the counter called for seniority and no one was there but Lee. The same Universal voice whispered, "Get your bags and walk up to the counter NOW!" Lee acted and he caught the ship. It was a miracle that it happened but Lee focused on his intention and acted upon the sign from the Universe. Lee listened and was aware and acted upon his sign of going to the restroom before leaving.

These are just a few examples of how signs can come to you. Be aware but not impatient when wanting a sign. Ask and then let it go and just be prepared for the moment because it will come.

If you wonder if the Universe gave you sign, this is a true moment that if you had to ask, it is a sign.

Can you ask the Universe for a sign and get one instantly? You sure can. If you feel like you want inspiration or encouragement, let the Universe know that you are going to pick up a book and ask for a sign in the passage. It doesn't matter what book. Close your eyes, ask your question, or ask for a sign, and visualize that your physical is stepping aside for a moment while your higher self or Core Being as we call it, opens the book to the sign that is for you. Point to a spot and read. You will find that there will be words that are just for you via the Universe.

Follow your signs and the Law of Attraction and you will have the life you want in no time.

Mind Power- What You Need To Know

Hello Friends,

Hope all is well. Everyone want to have a powerful mind. One that creates what we want at will. It is possible to have a mind this great, but when it comes down to it we end up being our own worst enemy. As soon as we have a good idea, instead of nurturing the idea, we think of all the things that could go wrong. This is Law of Attraction in work, but for the negative.

Focus on what you do want rather than what you don't want. The Universe is responding to our true thoughts and emotions. Send out only positive vibrations and that is what you will receive in return.

This article does a good job of giving you 7 points to remember as you are in the creation stage. Heed them well and the desires of your life will start to take form. Many blessings and thanks for listening.

7 Things You Should Know About Mind Power

Every since the natural Law of Attraction was popularized to the masses through the phenomenal success of The Secret movie, just about every one is trying out his or her own version of mind power and mental manifestation.

However, there are a few basic things we need to know before we even begin.

1. You are a divine being

Modern man is so preoccupied with the need to eke out a living that he is only aware of and is focused on his physical existence and needs. He is largely unconscious of his other existence - the formless and limitless mind.

In order to master your mind power, you need to be fully aware of this aspect of your existence, and realize that this is the power to your creation. This is the aspect that directly links you to your spirituality.

Begin each day remembering this divine nature of yours and you will begin to cultivate a new habit of purposeful creation.

2. Your mind is the creator of your experience

You are the creator of your own life and a co-creator of the universe you live in. Whatever you experience in your life - good and bad - is a mirror reflection of the inner state of your mind.

"As within, so without" is not just a nice saying. It is the actual description of how the universe works. When your mind is filled with garbage - negative thoughts and emotions, constant judging and blaming, resentments and irritations - it attracts precisely the same into your life. Likewise, when you have predominantly positive thoughts - unconditional love, compassion, gratitude, joy and blamelessness - then you attract into your life a happy and joyful experience.

3. You are fully responsible for your creations

Since you are the creator of your own life through your thoughts, you are 100% responsible for your own creations. If you are experiencing a life you do not like right now, it is all the result of your past thoughts. Therefore, you cannot blame your parents, your siblings, your spouse, your children, your unfortunate circumstances and any other kind of excuses for your conditions.

The idea is that you begin to accept full responsibility for your life and drop the habit of judging and blaming others. Only when you have done that will you be able to fully master your own destiny. Otherwise, you will only continue to look for someone or something to blame for your misfortunes.

4. You are creating all the time, whether you are aware of it or not

After watching The Secret movie, many people think that now they can begin to create a life that they want, as if all these times they have not been creating it. Know that you are creating every moment with your thoughts. You are doing it now even as you are reading this article. Creation is a moment to moment process and the only point of creation is NOW.

The point is we are not learning to create only now. We have been creating all the time. The difference now is that we want to create consciously. We want to be fully aware of what we create.

To do so, we need to be fully aware of what thoughts we allow in our mind. We want to be able to have only good positive thoughts and throw away the bad negative thoughts. We want to be fully conscious of what we are creating and therefore attracting into our lives.

5. To create consciously, you must master your mind

This is probably the most difficult challenge for most people. We are in the habit of living our lives without giving much thought to what goes in and out of our mind. We have been living on default or autopilot. It has become a mental habit that is hard to break.

To create our life consciously, we need to change this mental habit. We must have absolute mastery over our mind. We consciously determine what goes in and out of our mind, and choose only positive thoughts while discarding the negative ones.

This requires mental training or mind mastery. This is very much like an athlete who trains his body to perform as he wishes. With mind training, we want to train our mind to perform as we wish.

6. The key to mind mastery is mindfulness

Mindfulness or self awareness is the mental tool we need to master our mind. We need to sharpen this mindfulness and raise it to a new and higher level of awareness - a level that allows us to be fully aware of when our thoughts just begin to arise, what they are and to consciously change the negative thoughts as they arise and replace them with positive thoughts.

This simple objective is by no means easy to accomplish. It requires constant effort to be mindful. Only with persistence and discipline can this be achieved.

Mind training is easy to understand but not easy to do. That is why it is said that even an 8 year old may understand it but even an 80 year old may not be able to practice it.

7. Not everyone is ready for mind training

While it is true that a good teacher can find the right approach to teach any student, not every one who wants to learn mind training is ready for it. Those who are mentally unstable would not be suitable for it. It is certainly not for the mentally ill.

Sometimes certain new methodology such as brainwave entrainment is used as an adjunct to mind training. This may not be suitable for those with epilepsy or a history of fits.

So, before you begin your mind training, do your homework and learn as much as you can about it. There are tons of books on mind power. Some classic books on this new thought movement that I strongly recommend you read are those written by authors such as Wallace D. Wattles, Thomas Troward, James Allen, Annie Besant, Ernest Holmes and many more. They are well written, easy to understand and provide a good solid foundation to the understanding of how our mind and the universe work.

Once you have fully understood the principles, you can begin your own mind training.
