Knowing. Trusting. This seems to be where many of us fall short.
If we looked at the feeling of trust on a spectrum (from low to high vibration) it might look something like this:
- Fear
- Discouragement
- Worry
- Pessimism
- Neutrality
- Hopefulness
- Positive Expectation/Belief
- Trust/Faith
- Knowing/Conviction
Much as we would like to leap right into “conviction”, sustainable shifts in our consciousness will only happen in conjunction with systematic and incremental advancement up this vibrational scale.
So how can we make this happen? How do we move ourselves along this continuum so that we can root ourselves in a space of conviction and trust?
First, it is crucial to note that, although “hopefulness” and “positive expectation” are mental constructs, in order to advance past “positive expectation” the seeker must use tools that take him/her beyond an intellectual pursuit.
As James Redfield (author of the “Celestine Prophesy”) explains:
“I firmly believe that this level of experience is humanity’s destiny, but it is not real for any of us until we discover it individually and map it out in our own terms…In fact, it can be argued that those who take a strictly intellectual approach to this subject will be the last to ‘get it.”
Direct, irrefutable personal experience.
In December 1999 I was a “seeker” – “intrigued” by the idea of Deliberate Creation and wanting very much to believe and to trust.
By April 11 of the year 2000 I came to possess an absolute conviction that would never be weakened.
What happened in the months in between? I set myself up to take part in a powerful, life-changing experiment.
I’ll share more about this experiment in future issues (note: if you have a deep, burning curiosity, you can get the gist of the story here: http://www.choosingprosperity.com/mystory3.htm ) but the main idea is:
In order to master the law of attraction in a practical way, you must create the ideal conditions that allow the truth to reveal itself to you. In other words…
It’s time for us to do an experiment!!!!!
