Manifesting An Electronic Planner-Coincidence or Intentional?-Namaste
Posted on January 25, 2009 in the Beliefs, Law of Attraction, Manifesting, Namaste's Posts, Real Life, Success category
About a month ago I was thinking about switching from my paper dayplanner to an electronic one. I've always used a paper one but mine is so big I actually wear a backpack to carry it around all day. I did some research online about electronic planners. The problem was that I couldn't actually play with the ones I was reading about. I wanted to hold each one in my hand, play with the functions, really get a feel for it before I bought. And I REALLY wanted to do this, but I ran out of time and went and bought the regular paper one again for another year.
The other morning I see my dad and he says "Do you know what this is?" I look at it and realize it is an electronic dayplanner. I tell him what it is and he says "Marylin gave it to me a number of years ago. I don't want it. If you want it, keep it, otherwise throw it out."
As soon as he said that I thought back to a few weeks ago when I was thinking how badly I wanted to hold an electronic dayplanner in my hand and play with it.
What happened? If you believe in the law of attraction you believe that I manifested this. If you don't believe in the law of attraction you'd say this was a coincidence.
Obviously, I believe in the law of attraction. And I believe that I REALLY wanted to hold an electronic dayplanner in my hands. I believe that the desire was high enough for the Universe to deliver it to me.
A number of things are interesting to me about this experience.
#1 I didn't ask the Universe to send me an electronic dayplanner. I just really wanted to hold on my hands and play with it. This is both cool and scary. I've believed forever that the key to manifesting is emotion. Any thing that I have a high enough level of emotion about I bring into my life. Thinking about the implications of this experience I need to be very conscious about what I get emotional about. I didn't ask for the electronic dayplanner but it came into my life anyway. I wonder how many times I'm doing this and not conscious of it? How many times have I been emotional about my business NOT going the way I want? OUCH!!!! It's a harsh lesson to think back on what I have been creating.
Another thing that this brings to mind is that the Universe can bring me anything I want big or small. To the Universe everything is the same. Why do I think that it's more or less difficult for the Universe to bring me an electronic dayplanner instead of a mansion over looking the ocean for example.
#2 I only thought about wanting an electronic dayplanner a couple of times. My normal way of manifesting is I think about the one thing I want to manifest all day long, everyday, until it shows up in my life. It's a lot of work and not a lot of fun.
This really makes me wonder. I seriously only thought about wanting to hold an electronic dayplanner a handful of times. Under ten times for sure and likely under 5 times total. And the electronic dayplanner manifested in my life. I really think I've been overworking myself. I've had things manifest after only thinking about it one time with an incredibly high level of emotion. It really only takes one time. Not believing that is saying I don't trust the Universe and I think that the Universe has to work to do anything.
#3 I got exactly what I put out there. I got to hold an electronic dayplanner in my hands and play with it. It's NOT the kind of electronic dayplanner I want. I'll look at it a little more closely soon but I'm likely going to donate it to GOODWILL. I should have specified that I wanted to hold an electronic dayplanner that I might actually want to buy.
