I Want That......

So, your bills are mounting, your weight is not ideal and your career is floundering?

You tell the Divine, "I need more money, I want a better car, I must have the love of my life and very soon."

So, the Divine has given you all that and you still complain?

In order to do affirmation work effectively, you must understand the language of affirmations.

Every affirmation has two parts. The part that is written or spoken and the part that quietly precedes it.

When you make a request of the Universe, the Universe goes into its "wish granting mode." 

Like a giant computer program, it prepares itself to receive the command you are about to give it. In a time before time, you helped to create it this way. 

It works like this:

You open the "Grant my wish" program. Click on the button that says, "Make a request." A window will open and you will see three words: I want that_______________.

Type in your request and hit "Send."

If you believe you have done this without a good result, then think about how those three words affect the meaning of your request.

This is the reason it is important to word your affirmations as though they have already happened.

You are not lying or pretending when you say, "I have enough money to pay all my bills and a surplus to spend for recreation" you are being very precise in your request and asking for exactly what you want.

If you say, "I want that.....I need more money." The Universe instantly grants your request. A need for more money. In fact, the Universe is so efficient, it will probably create more expenses and unpleasant financial surprises that will positively guarantee you a "need for money."

The fact that you become frustrated with the Universe over your affirmations is more proof that they work. 

You see, the program is always running. Every time you say, "I want, I need, or I desire," the Universe is listening and responding. 

If more of your words and thoughts say, "I want" then more "want" is what you shall have. The Universe will make  you more frustrated about not achieving your goals because that is what you have requested.

You are a powerful and amazing creator. Perhaps you should use your power now to create something you really want. It is just our suggestion. ~Silas

Strengthen Your Magnet

So, you are disappointed with Spirit? The new car, job, computer or shoes you have been working at manifesting has not come to you yet?

Can you feel it?

Close your eyes, imagine what you would like, and feel what it is like to have it. Walk into a store that you've always wanted to shop in and pick out the perfect outfit, complete with accessories. Imagine yourself walking down the street wearing it. How does it feel? How does the material flow? Can you see the faces of others admiring it?

Look for the car, purse, computer or sound system that you have been wanting, online.

Take a trip in your mind, imagine the speed with which you surf the Internet, hear the deep, rich sounds coming from your new speakers.

Then give thanks. Your consciousness doesn't realize that you don't have it yet. 

If you can keep your thoughts of what you wish for positive and strong, It will be attracted to you. Like attracts like. 

A magnet and metal are not exactly alike. The magnet vibrates at a frequency that attracts the metal object you are trying to get. The stronger the magnet, the more quickly the metal will be drawn to and eventually stick to it. 

Spend time every day strengthening your magnet. If you are dedicated to this task, what you desire will not only come to you, it will stick to you and you will not be able to get rid of it. 

You are already gifted at attracting things you don't want, so, simply, turn your thinking around. You may be asked to take action, but that action will only strengthen your magnet so do not resent it.

Be grateful and say, "Thank you!" with enthusiasm to Spirit for granting your wish. It has already happened and is rocketing its way towards you. 

We are very excited for you! Enjoy! ~Silas

Before You Give Up

What is the ultimate goal you are striving for?

Have you tried other ways, or ideas?

Have you made progress?

Is there something you’d rather do?

Is it fun? Does the thought of it bring you pleasure?

How do you really feel about it?

How do you feel about giving up?

Sometimes you listen to the world and not your heart.  There may be other ways to manifest your desire.

Stop a minute and think about what you really want. How would it feel if you had it? How could you feel that way right now?

Feel that feeling and all will become clear. You may be on the right track. Before you abandon the journey, be sure that you are on the right train. ~Silas

One Small Step

Many of you are becoming aware of the fact that your thoughts create your reality. You say your affirmations daily, you meditate, you begin to feel what it would be like to have what you desire. Then, you wait.

Ask for it. Feel it like it is already yours. Done and done, so, what is taking it so long?

Knowing what you desire, and believing that you have it are really all it takes, but sometimes it takes a while.

If you were on a sinking ship and wanted more than anything to be rescued, you would probably not remain in your cabin below the deck. You would get to the highest point on the ship, send a signal flare and reach for the rescuer's hand when they offer it to you.

If you were to stay below the deck, they might not know you are there or it will take a much longer period of time to reach you. They might even think that you don't really want to be rescued.

When you order a meal at a restaurant, would you leave your table and go to sit at the bar without telling your waitress?

The Universe will always respond to you. It is you who are not always clear. One way to make your intentions and desires clearer, is to take an action.

Yes, we know, you have heard that you can manifest anything you want without all of the hard work. You can. However, a small action taken on your part, can bring about results much more rapidly. A little action, reading about the job you want, writing a sentence of your novel, walking around the block can move energy and speed up the process. We never said the work had to be hard, in fact, making it fun can be even more effective (listen to music during a walk for exercise, time yourself to see how quickly you can write, look at want ads while your cookies are baking). Nothing big has to be accomplished right away, but showing the Universe that you want something so badly you are willing to put a little "muscle" into it, moves the energy.

You are not doubting the Universe's ability to deliver your wishes, you are simply rushing out with joy to meet the delivery truck. The Universe may build on the energy you have set in motion bringing about your wishes in a logical manner, (you quickly find the job of your dreams through the want ads) or it might just use the energy you've released in a different way ( you apply for a job through the want ads and meet a stranger in a cafe who offers you a better one).

So focus on what you want, feel what it is like to have it and take a small step today, that makes you feel a little closer to it. Play with it. Have fun. Don't hide at the bar, your meal is nearly ready. ~Silas

A Delicate Condition

You just had the most brilliant idea. It is truly exciting. It makes your heart beat faster and your brain gets a feeling of intoxication as you imagine bringing the idea to life.

You begin to think about it, analyze it, list the pros and cons. Maybe you tell a friend, co-worker or family member. You consider the risks, the costs, the probability of failure. Your enthusiasm begins to wane, the tiny flame of inspiration gives off a spark then dies in a puff of smoke.

This is why your dreams remain in your head and never make it into the real world.

When you dream, you dream small and practical. You estimate that your current resources and talents are not enough to fulfill your dreams. You allow others to pour their doubts and fears upon your dreams. You place them far off into the future, and you keep them there. Forever they remain illusive and just beyond your reach.

Time only exists in your mind, therefore, the future, present and past, are all now, and now is when you have the power to create.

Your inspirations are seeds. Do not toss them on the rocks. Plant them by taking some small action quickly (brainstorming, researching, gathering resources). Water them with more small actions. Fertilize them by taking small risks on behalf of your dreams. Make your dream tending a routine.

Once you have pushed past your initial inertia, small steps become easy, and larger ones become possible.

When that spark hits you, anything is possible. Don't lose it because you need more computer time, five more minutes of sleep or have to watch more of your favorite television show. The spark is your unborn child.

You are in a delicate condition. Negativity can hurt the baby. Guard it and protect it as only a mother can. Care for it in its tender infant stage. Stay close to provide help if needed as it grows, and do not put your "baby" in a corner.

Love and nurture your creative impulses. Once you're in motion, you will want to keep moving, and you will have the time of your life ~ Silas

Jinnzania's side notes: I've dreamed big all my life. I've also feared big. Guess which one usually won out? One day, I realized how effective I had become at manifesting my fears. I spent most of my time worried and anxious. I worried about money, about making a living and about my marriage. As a result, I was usually broke, in a job I hated, and my marriage, was in trouble.

When I realized how effective I was at creating what I didn't want, I turned my attention to what I wanted. I got a better job and my financial situation improved. My marriage crumbled, because it had not been built on a solid foundation. It was not healthy for either of us to live with the constant tension. I've grown more confident and independent as a result. For the first time in my life, I am at peace with my own energy and I have come to realize, that I don't want to change who I am just to be in a relationship.

Currently, I am living in a new city, having manifested the space I needed. I enjoyed the experience, then realized, that I wanted to be closer to home. So, without realizing it, I sent out a message to Spirit. My job's contract has ended, and rather than taking a job that I was pretty sure would not be to my liking, I decided to release it and go back home. So a space is now open for a great new career. Perhaps, I could help it along by worrying about hiring an accountant to help manage all the money I'm going to make or get stressed over where I'm going to take my expensive new clothes to be dry cleaned. Instead, I think I'll just pick up the story of my life and excitedly turn the pages to see what fun adventures the next chapter will bring.

No need for stress. I've already decided that there will be a happy ending.
