Count your blessings

When we set an intention to have something manifest in our lives, it is important to identify its source. If you are wanting to manifest wealth, does that desire come from your need to remove yourself from financial debt? You say to yourself, "I have so many bills to pay. I am worried about how I can make ends meet. Manifesting $10,000 would solve all of my problems." Then you put it out to the Universe and nothing happens. You say to yourself, "See, the Law of Attraction doesn't work." Actually it is working just fine. If your intention is grounded in lack and worry, then that is what you will be attracting. Try focusing on what you DO have in life. As you bring each of those blessings into focus, what are the emotions that accompany them? If you are feeling happiness, joy, satisfaction, or elation, you will be creating a vibrational resonance that will attract what you need. If you have a pattern of looking at the lack in your life, it may take some effort to bring to mind what you do have. Be willing to develop this practice. Blessings don't have to be in the form of their monetary value. They can be the love you feel from your children or pets, starting the day with a healthy meal, or watching a magnificent sunset.
