Ask, Believe and Receive

Here are the 3 Law of Attraction Steps for creating anything you want

Step 1.  Ask

Step 2. Believe

Step 3. Receive

*************************************************************************

Step 1. Ask – Asking for what you want versus asking for what you don’t want.

We all use the Law of Attraction every day even if we are not aware of it and how it works. The first step of asking for what we want happens naturally every moment that we are awake. We can ask with our thoughts, words and actions, and we also ask just by giving our attention to things.

Whether we give attention to what we want, and we look at it with joy and appreciation and say “I love that and I want that!”, or we give attention to what we don’t want, and we look at it with disgust, anger or fear and say “I hate that and I don’t want that!”, we are asking for it just by giving our attention to it.

The Universe does not judge

The Universal Law of Attraction does not judge the things we want as good or bad, it leaves that to you.

The universe simply delivers to you, things that are energetic match to what you have been asking for. To put that another way, the universe will deliver to you things that are energetically similar to your most frequent vibration or feeling. If you usually feel happy and optimistic you will draw to you things (people, experiences, health conditions etc) that feel like that. If you spend most of your time feeling bored, fearful, angry or depressed then you will attract things that feel like that.

 Worrying is using your imagination to create something you don’t want.

— Abraham-Hicks

Most of us have been taught that if we reject and try to fix what we don’t want we will get what we do want. But, this is going about things in a backwards and difficult way. When we worry and try to fix things, we are focusing on what we don’t want  and working against the flow of Law of Attraction. In most cases instead of giving you what you want, it just creates more of what you don’t want.

Now, anything that we want to have, we want because we believe we will feel better when we have it, and yet often when we think about what we want, we don’t feel better at all,  instead we feel bad.

Why is that?

It’s because we are focusing on an unwanted aspect of that thing, we are focusing on what we don’t want.

You see, everything that is manifested in this world is made up of two aspects, the wanted or positive aspect and the unwanted or negative aspect. What ends up manifesting in your life depends on which aspect you have predominantly focused on.

So, how do you know whether you are focusing on what you want, rather than what you don’t want. Well, that is where this all becomes very simple because all you really need to understand is that when you are focusing on what you want, you will always feel good.

To illustrate wanted and unwanted aspects let’s take the example of wanting a car and split it into its two aspects and notice how it feels to focus on each:

Wanted Aspects– Clean, reliable, economical, new, shiny, looks good, smells great, the paintwork shines, the seats feel great, I can afford it ………….

Unwanted Aspects– I cant afford a new one yet; my old one is dirty, unreliable, old, faded, smelly, dented, does not have enough room, costs too much to run; everyone else seems to have a better car than me, when am I going to get it  …….

OK, so you understand that staying focused on what you want is what you need to do and that’s great in theory,  but how do you not focus on your tired old car when I you are faced with it every day. How do you not feel bad, when it won’t start in the morning or as you look at the dents in it, or notice that you still don’t have the money to replace it with?

Well, don’t worry if you can’t be completely positive to begin with, after all you probably didn’t come to your negative viewpoint overnight, and there is no need and it is not possible, to change your view instantly either.
All you need to do, and all you can do,  is to feel a little bit better each time you think of your goal and your current situation, until you can get to the point where you feel consistently good whenever you think of either.

Back to the example of the car.

Here are 4 tips that will quickly move you towards feeling better about the car you already own and the car you would like to have:

Tip #1 Look for things to appreciate about your current car.

Remember how you felt when you first bought it (assuming you liked it then) . 

Remember all the great places it has taken you to.

Clean your car and make it look, feel and smell as good as it possibly can.

Fix anything that you can afford to fix on your car

Say only good things about your car and overlook its faults, if you catch yourself thinking or saying anything negative about your car  - stop – and  refocus either on what is good about your car, what you want (a new car), or something else entirely.

Tip #2 Appreciate other people’s cars.

Begin to look for other cars that you like, and be happy for the people who own them.

Tip #3 Focus on the car you would like to have

Write a description of and/or have a picture of your new car and look at it daily.

Imagine how your new car will look, sound, smell.

Say to yourself “How would it feel to have my new car. How would it feel to drive my new car. How would it feel to clean my new car. ” Get into that feeling place of what it would be like to have it and then practice that – often.

Tip #4  If you can’t feel at all positive about your car, and you can’t hold a vision of your new car without feeling negative, FORGET ABOUT IT! Think about or do something that always makes you feel good, then come back to the subject of the car when you are feeling better.

Step 2. Believe -

Belief requires no action from you, if you have it.

It is the job of the universe to line up and deliver all that you ask for, and this has already been done. All you need to “do” is believe that this is true. Easier said than done, if you have never done this Law of Attraction thing before.

 But it is true  -  what you have asked for has already been given, it is there waiting for you, and when you are a vibrational match for it, you will see it manifested in your life.

Believing is simple once you have experienced the law of attraction in action a few times, until then using affirmations will help you to create a belief in the power of Law of Attraction.

Step 3. Receive - 

You can only receive (and keep) those things which you are a vibrational match to. So in order to receive what you have asked for, you will need to raise your vibration, (also known as coming into alignment with source,  getting into the vortex or just plain old feeling great ) so that you are a vibrational match to what you want.
One way of doing this is to continue focusing on your goal, not so that the universe will know what it is that you want, because it already knows this, and has in fact delivered it.

No, the reason to keep focusing on the wanted aspects of your goal is because it can feel so good to do it and so you are raising your vibration to the level where it needs to be.

But as you already know focusing on a  goal can just as easily introduce resistance. If this is the case take a break from your goals and just focusing on being happy in any way you can. Being happy will always raise your vibration.

Here are a list of more ideas for raising your vibration.

The great thing about all of this is that as your vibration raises, you realize that it doesn’t actually matter when or even if, you get what you want because you now have the ability to feel great with or without it.

Ironically, when you no longer care about when or if it comes, it comes.  This process of letting go is also referred to as the art of allowing.

Here is a video explaining this vibratonal

Listen to this funny Abraham Hicks youtube video about this process.

When you ask it always given, but are you letting it in? From now on try asking for things and just EXPECTING them to show up. Not right now, but in their own good time. Practice trusting that the universe has heard your request  and that it is just waiting for the right time to deliver it to you.
