I was talking with a galpal yesterday who has had several long term careers in several fields the past 30 years and is again ready for change.  “I know the attraction process, ” she said, “now if I just knew what I wanted to attract.” That’s a good question, isn’t it?  What if I don’t know what I want to attract? My experience is: you don’t need to know the specifics – I want to be a fireman, I want to be a CEO, I want to travel the world – you just need to know that you want to attract a good life, with plenty of friends, good health, plenty of dollars and fun times for all.  You want to spend time thinking thoughts like:

I want to attract circumstances and events that show me what I enjoy doing.
I want to attract information about people who have careers that interest me.
I want to attract multiple streams of income.
I want to attract ideas that are compelling to me, that fire my curiosity in satisfying new directions.

I will keep myself alert and watchful for opportunities with every person I meet and every circumstance I find myself in. One way to keep myself alert and watchful in the moment is to find things to appreciate about every person and circumstance I encounter.

Keep reminding yourself, even writing it down, that dollars can come to you out of the blue, from somewhere you don’t expect.  And years later.  Remember that even if you are not on your paying job, when you are finding things you like to do (even raising your family and gardening)  and doing them, the dollars will find some way to flow out of you just as the giant oak flows out of the tiny acorn.  The oak tree is not in the water and the fertilizer and the ground it’s put in.  It’s in the acorn.  You are the acorn that dollars will find a way to flow out of. Dollars are nothing more than expression of life force and the more life force flowing through you, the quicker the dollars flow.

The part here that goofs most people up – and the reason it doesn’t work for them – is that if they only read about the process of pondering the acorn analogy, they don’t see how them gardening or playing golf is going to make dollar bills drop in their lap.  But if they do the pondering and meditate on the acorn analogy, ideas will begin to spark within them, and they will be guided into action.

It’s like people who say meditation doesn’t work for them.  The fact is, they are simply not meditating to the state of superconsciousness .  Maybe they think meditation is listening to a guided visualization with someone talking them through it. They need to just sit and breathe for 20 minutes twice a day and not visualize anything but their breath going in and out of their nostrils.

But anyway, when you do the pondering and meditate on the acorn analogy (not just read about it), ideas will begin to spark within you, and you will be guided into action.   You’ve got to go into that inner cinema and stay there long enough to get the guidance.  Instead of racking your brain saying what do I want to be when I grow up, rack your brain asking what is fun for me?  What do I enjoy doing?  Who’s doing something that looks like fun?  What looks like something I might want to do?  Who looks like someone I might want to know?

When you know those answers, then all you have to do is – do it.
And the ideas and the action and the money will follow.
