Stop Making Resolutions!

At this time of year, there's always a lot of talk about making resolutions.

Since learning more about our power to deliberately create our lives, and the law of attraction, instead of making resolutions, I set my intention.

Our intentions are very powerful and I have found that when we deliberately set our intention, it can pave the way for what appears to be a miraculous, effortless, easy manifestation.

Setting your intention starts with knowing what you want. This means getting really clear about the outcome, the end result. Deciding exactly how you want it to look and feel, your ultimate outcome or goal.

We intend many things every day, and we make choices that support those intentions whether we are aware of what we are intending or not. 

Not being aware of our intentions can pave the way for loss and failure to achieve our true heart's desires.

A few years ago, a friend of mine spent all of her savings and went deeply into debt, to start a business. When she told me her plan, I asked what her intentions were. Her reply was, "I want to be able to say, I tried".

I knew right then her business was doomed to failure.  Her intentions were not to succeed, but to be able to say to herself, I tried.  

Even though her business idea was a great one, and something she enjoyed doing, I was not surprised when she closed her business in less than six months.

What is it that you really want to BE, DO, or HAVE?

How do you want it to look and ultimately FEEL?

Set your intention for that. Write it down, imagine it, and make choices each day that support that intention. 

Do you want to say "I tried" or do you truly want to succeed and feel successful? Set your intentions.

Intend to succeed, intend for it to be easy, joyful, fun, or however you choose for it to be. It is your choice. 

You can set intentions for today, this week, this month, this year, or for whenever you desire. It's your choice.

As you go through your day, remind yourself of your intentions, of your desired goal or outcome.

Use these Law of Attraction tools to support your intentions.

Want to Increase Your Luck this year? Why not, stop making resolutions and start setting your intentions! (Unless, of course, making resolutions makes you feel really, really good).

It's Law of Attraction for your Lucky Life!

California Dreaming...Does anyone really win sweepstakes?

Does anyone really win sweepstakes? Yes, they really do! 

I am one of the lucky grand prize winners and here is how it all started for me.

Early one morning in 2006 as I was getting some new tires put on my car, I sat in the waiting room glancing through a magazine, when an article about a lady that had won a lot of sweepstakes caught my eye.  My first thought was, does anyone really win those things?

The article talked about a lady that called herself the "Contest Queen" that had won lots of great prizes like a shopping spree, a new automobile, and lots of great trips.  Sounded interesting, so I ordered a copy of her book and read it.  

I was so inspired, that I decided to subscribe to a sweepstakes newsletter.

When my newsletter arrived I was amazed at all the wonderful prizes being given away.  

I immediately set my goal to win a trip to California.  I have always wanted to go to California. 

A caricature I drew.

I immediately started entering sweepstakes every week and it wasn't long before I was winning smaller prizes like gift cards, running shoes, t-shirts, etc. 

I continued entering each week and finally, it happened!  Just two days before my birthday, on July 9th, 2009, a FedEx envelope arrived.  My entry had been chosen as a Grand Prize Winner! 

It was the Smucker's Stars On Ice Sweepstakes and I could choose a trip to any city on the tour, and take up to five people with me.

 

I chose to go to Los Angeles.  Woo hoo!  California, here we come!

Smucker's put us up in the Roosevelt Hotel on Hollywood Blvd. My daughter and I have always been ice skating fans, and we were so excited to meet Olympic Gold Medalist Evan Lysacek.

We all loved California so much that we didn't want to leave.  In fact, we all decided we wanted to live there.  

 “Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

In August 2012, my daughter actually realized that goal. You can read her story here.  California Move

It's always amazing to me, how one decision, one small action, leads to another, and another, and can eventually lead to huge change.

Back then I was new to the law of attraction and didn't really know how to vibrationally align with my goals.  

It was three years from the time I set my goal to win a trip to California, until I won.  It only took me three months when I won the trip to Las Vegas.

There is a three step process for manifesting I've learned, and it is:

• Intention (set the intention for what you want)
• Attention (give the goal focused attention)
• No tension (let it go, feel as good now as if you already had it, trust the Universe to bring it about)

I was really good at the first two steps, the third step,  "no tension" is where my manifestation got held up, but as you can see in my second win, I am learning.
 

Are you ready to manifest your goals? As your coach, I can assist and support you in setting your Intention, giving it Attention, then focusing on No tension, and finding ways to feel good now.


Have you ever used this process?  What did you manifest? Share your manifestation in the comments below.

Until next time,
Love and Luck,

How Fast Can the Universe Deliver?

There is a national sandwich chain that claims their delivery is Freaky Fast. 
I won't name any names here but I'm sure you know to whom I am referring, and yes, I have tried them, and yes, they delivered my sub pretty Freaky Fast!  8 whole minutes after I hit the place order button on my laptop, I was sitting at my desk unwrapping my freshly made sandwich in amazement. That's Freaky Fast if you ask me!

Now I am asking, how fast can the UNIVERSE deliver?

A few weeks ago, my Sweetie and I were having an evening out shopping, not something we do very often, but we had a list of things we needed to buy, so after work we headed out, and we were on our last stop, which was Target.  After finding what we came for, we stopped to browse in the DVD section. 

My Sweetie and I enjoy watching movies, especially ones that make us laugh.

While browsing, I noticed a movie that had several actors we really like, and a pretty well known director, so I asked my Sweetie if he had seen it, or heard of it.  He said, "no, he hadn't", but we both agreed it looked like it might be fun to watch.   

Seeing as we had already spent all the moolah we had intended to spend for the evening and the DVD cost $15, I wondered if perhaps our local library might have a copy. So I asked my Sweetie, "Why don't you go to the library tomorrow and see if they have it? That way, we can just check it out and watch it for free."  He said, "OK, write down the title." (It was already late in the evening and the library was closed for the day).

So I get out my phone, look it up on Amazon, and bookmark it, so I can remember the title.

We go on about our shopping, checkout, and then head home.  He drops me off at my house and about ten minutes later I get a text message from him that says,  "I am totally freaked out!"

Fearing the worst, I call him up and ask "OMG, what's wrong?"

 
When he had arrived home, in his mailbox was a letter from the library notifying him that his DVD was on hold for him and was available for him to pick up. The very DVD we had just looked at, and hadn't even known existed before going into Target.

He was so freaked out that he said, "How did they put it on hold?  I never knew this movie existed?  I never called there or went there, this just came in my mail! I am definitely going there tomorrow to find out how this happened!"

I just laughed and answered, "I love it!  I know exactly how it happened, we asked, and the Universe delivered!"

I don't know about you, but that's the way I like my desires to manifest, FREAKY FAST.

Sometimes it seems like the Universe takes forever, so why did this manifest so fast?

Here's my thoughts on the matter.

• First of all, we just had a clear desire to see it.  We figured it would be fun and make us laugh. (We knew what we wanted and why we wanted it.)

• We focused a little attention on it.  (I'd say about three minutes worth, Abraham suggests 68 seconds)

• We decided and intended to see it.

• We decided on our inspired action step to take. (Check at the library the next morning to see if they had it)

• Then, we just let it go and went on about our shopping, trusting and believing we would, never giving it another thought. (We turned it over to the Universe without even realizing it)

So how fast can the Universe deliver? I call that Freaky Fast!

Until next time,

Lucky Lady
