The Discovery of Your Personal Alchemy: Avenue #4

October 6th, 2009 by Elizabeth

How often do you find yourself insisting on a very specific outcome to a desire you have? I must confess, I myself have been in insistent-mode a bit too often in my life. This means then that I am resisting and not accepting where I am in that moment. I have come to realize that all of that insistence and resistance leads to one thing: the unravelling of any opportunity I may have had to reach my goal; to manifest my desire. It’s a funny thing how pushing and insisting stunts any and all growth. Our thoughts, if not policed, can do this. Because we forget about co-creation and letting go, suddenly our Magic is no where to be found; our wand becomes deactivated and turns to lead.

Downstream

So how do we find our magic source and activate our beautiful wands? Simply get out of the way and ALLOW. Okay. So maybe it may not seem that simple at first, but with practice it can be. And it all starts with the first moment of awareness: awareness that we are not holding the vibration of what we want but of that which we do not want; awareness that we are thinking thoughts of “It has to be this way! My way!”; awareness of the idea that if we trust and relax, it will all flow.

It is much easier to flow downstream than upstream. The downstreams of life show up when we allow. The upstreams show up when we resist what is and insist on the how. And for me, maybe a part of stepping into the allowing is to accept that it is all much easier than my thoughts lead me to believe.

Below I share with you a video from Abraham, a group consciousness channeled from the non-physical dimensions who are hailed by Louise Hay as ”some of the best teachers on the planet today”, and by Wayne Dyer as “the great Masters of the Universe”. They talk here of what they call “The Law of Allowing”.

It is interesting that at the end of the video, as they speed through their sharing of information, we still “get it” and it resonates fully. Perhaps because it really IS all so simple…

Frozen computer got you down?

Or perhaps you can’t tweet as fast as you want to due to a slow connection? Or did you just scream expletives deleted at your computer because you just got the oh-so-lovely Microsoft “program not responding” message yet again or you have become another victim of the Blue Screen of Death?(okay you Mac-ers! My PC can hear your unnecessary chortling from here and it is very sensitive…) Just can't take it any more!

If so, let’s try a new perspective: How awesome is it that we can even be “friends” with someone in Singapore that we have never even met or learn about the origin of peanut butter on Wikipedia? I, for one, often forget the miracle of this incredible technology. And yet another beauty of the techno-world (other than using it to see how many “followers” we can get in one day–Sorry. Inside joke reserved for Twitteraholics), is for all of us to be able to share. Share our ideas. Share our points of view. Share our talents. Share our wisdom.

I used to think, “Yeah, but that person over there is already sharing with the world a belief I hold to be true”, or “but that person over there is providing a service I provide” and concluding from that, “Well, then why should I share?” The answer is because I MUST! YOU MUST! There really is a limited number of Universal Principles and understandings of Life and Being, but there is an infinite number of ways to present them! And that is why we are all here at this time. To present over and over again and, each time, touching someone new in a completely different way then your neighbor has. Ever have a book sitting on your shelf for five years and then one day you walk past it and it suddenly jumps out at you screaming, “READ ME! NOW!!!” That is because “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear” (kudos here to Wayne Dyer who taught me that one as well as “when the teacher is ready the student will appear”).

So we just never know when our students will be ready to hear what we have to teach. They could have heard about the same concept from 50 different people, but then you open your mouth or take pen to paper and they say, “Oh yeah! I get it! Wow!” and you have changed someone’s life forever.

That happened to me today. I was just perusing the internet and ran across this video on YouTube. It is 15 minutes long (14:33 to be exact) but so well worth your time. Here Steve Jobs, co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple, in a commencement speech at Stanford  University, speaks to us of age old concepts of love, trust, loss, and passion for what we do. And he echoes some of the concepts I write about and am passionate about. But he spoke in such a way that I was reminded yet again how important it is to hold all those principles very dear and to fully practice them in my life.

So as Mr. Jobs says, “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.” And I  say, “Please share of you. I want to know you. I want to hear what you have to say. Others want to know you and hear you. Let’s have dialogues and conversations. Let’s connect. Let’s change the world together.”

I hope this perspective helps ease your stress the next time you are watching a Lakers game on your computer and it freezes up just as Kobe is making yet another phenomenal 3-pointer to win the game…
