Focus On The Goal Not The Money

Focus On The Goal Not The Money

You hear a lot of information about the Law of Attraction and that is if you want something, then all you have to do is to focus on it, feel the emotions as if you already have it and it will happen. But I believe there are a few important points you may need to know before you can manifest these things.

The first one is that once you have identified what you want – your goal, you have to move towards your goal. If you sit there and wait for it to happen, nothing will happen. You have to move towards your goal and it moves towards you. The funny thing about this is that the faster you move, the faster it comes towards you.

For example, if your goal is to boil an egg, then if you just hold the egg in your hand, nothing will happen. So you put it in a pot of water and still nothing will happen unless you keep moving toward your goal. If you don’t turn the gas on, everything just stops. Now you put the gas on, so then now something happens. The more you fuel the fire (turn the gas up), the faster it cooks, the faster you achieve your goal. It’s like saying I want $1000 and do nothing. Nothing will happen until you start moving towards it by doing something.

The second important point is that you may not get what you ask for but you will get why you asked for it. I will explain, it’s like asking for money but the reason why you have asked for it was that you thought money would make you happy. So right on cue, your friend rings you up and asks you for dinner and you get there and your other best friends are there. You have an unexpected great time with great food and laughter and you feel really happy and full of joy. Then you go home with a smile on your face, when you get home and the emptiness arrives again and you think, ‘I wish I had more money’. The next day somebody at work tells you what a great job you have done and how much they enjoy working with you. You feel seen and respected, you feel happy and you go home again and wish you had money again. The phone rings again and it’s your old friend from overseas that you haven’t talked to for years and so on and so on and so on!

But you may be missing how your requests are manifesting in your life.

The third important point, sometimes the most important and the most difficult is to stay focused on the goal and not how it is going to happen. Sometimes we get caught up on how it will eventuate. For example, we want to go overseas to see a relative you haven’t seen for years. The first thing we may think is, ‘well where am I going to get the money from because I can’t afford it’. But when you bring your attention to the thought you don’t have enough money and what you don’t have, that’s where your focus goes.

So what you will manifest is that you don’t have enough money and that will come true. So in the Law of Attraction you just need to focus on the goal and walk towards it. Ring up your uncle and tell him you are coming, work out when the best time to travel is, the best airline to travel on and learn about the country you are going to. Tell all your friends you are going.

The hardest part in all this is not to think where the money is coming from any of the time. You have to put it out there, focus on the goal and let go of how it will happen or the need to control how it will happen. Think of where you’re going and visualise yourself in the country and being with your uncle. See yourself laughing and being close to him.

If you can just stay focused on the goal then everything that it takes to fulfil your goal will just happen. It will just back fill everything that needs to happen to make your goal a reality. The trouble is that it is difficult not to let your mind focus on the details, especially if you don’t have the money at the moment to pay for it.

Remember, you still have to keep moving towards it. Like asking for two weeks off work, getting somebody to water your plants and feed your cat and cancel all your appointments. Trust that the money will just come. But make sure you don’t start working out where it might come from because that is a trap and that limits the possibility of it coming from anywhere.

The funny thing about this is that we all have examples of this very thing happening in our lives before. Like the time you want to go to a show and somebody rings you up and just happens to have a spare ticket. Or you wanted a new bag and the one you wanted was expensive and in the mail your tax refund arrives and by a strange twist of fate it just happens to be the same amount as the bag. And you say ‘what a lucky coincidence’. Yeah! Right!

I had a very good example of this myself just recently. I wanted to go to the World Medical Qigong Conference in China and it was going to cost about $5000 for the airfares and conference tickets, accommodation and expenses etc. Well, I didn’t have a spare five grand but I put it out there that I wanted to go and just let it go and now and then thought of me being there. Two weeks out, I received a cheque in the mail for $5500. A payment that I get every 5 years for accident compensation and I had forgotten about it years ago.

I looked up and said “Thanks”, rang the airline, booked my ticket that day, got a visa, which arrived the day before I left and went and had a fabulous time. And it was as simple as that. People say, “Well, that was just good luck and a coincidence”; and maybe it was if it didn’t keep happening. You may say I’m just lucky or is it just the way I think and open my mind to the possibility of anything can happen.

I must admit I don’t always think like this, I have to practise it. If you can just stay focused on what you want and why you want it, everything will happen to make this a reality. It’s like the people who always think they will get an empty carpark place outside the place they are going to and always do. I have two friends who have mastered this one. And I mean every time. It’s freaky. I have another friend who thinks there will always be a carpark space and if there isn’t, then all you have to do is drive around the block once and you will always find one. And guess what, he doesn’t always get a carpark space the first time but he always gets one when drives around the block. Ha. Maybe he should just take the ‘drive around the block thing away from his story’ and it would save the extra trip around the block.

I believe it is just that simple.

But it takes faith and belief in your power of manifestation.

Just focus on your goal. You can start with a carpark first, if you like. Ha! But don’t limit yourself. I saw a great billboard once and it said:

“Do you think I’m only good for carparks? Think bigger”.

Signed ‘GOD’.

I love this; it pretty well sums it all up.

You may not believe in ‘God’ but talk to whatever or whoever you would talk to when you are lost at sea in a life raft by yourself. Whatever or whoever you pray to is ‘that one’.

Good luck! If luck has anything to do with it and I will see you in the carpark.
