Hi Reader!
Linda and I have always had a passion for self-improvement.
Over the years, we've tried all kinds of things.
✅ Visualization.
✅ EFT.
✅ The Emotion Code.
And yes... even the Law of Attraction.
Some things genuinely helped us.
Others didn't.
And if we're being completely honest, following the Law of Attraction is something we deeply regret today.
Because somewhere along the way, we stopped trusting ourselves.
☝️ The Message Sounded So Powerful
The idea was simple:
You're the creator of your own reality.
Who wouldn't want to believe that?
We certainly did. 😅
But instead of feeling more powerful, we slowly started giving our power away.
Every negative emotion suddenly meant something was wrong:
- Doubt = we didn't trust the Universe.
- Worry = we were pushing our manifestation away.
- Fear = we had fallen out of alignment and out of the "Vortex".
And who was to blame?
Us.
🚫 We didn't believe enough.
🚫 We weren't positive enough.
🚫 We weren't allowing it to happen.
That's a lot of pressure to put on someone, don't you think?
And the irony is, for the longest time, it never occurred to us that maybe it was the teachings that weren't working.
We just assumed it had to be us.
🌿 How We Broke Free
One day, Linda and I asked ourselves a simple question.
How have we actually achieved the things we wanted in our lives?
And I realized something.
We already know how to do this.
We've done it many, many times.
So have you. 💛
And it usually goes something like this:
- Get very clear on what you want.
- Make a decision that, one way or another, it will be yours.
- Expect there to be setbacks and pushback.
- Keep going despite doubt and fear.
The funny thing is that we followed the Law of Attraction for years, but when we actually achieved the things we wanted...
We never used those teachings at all. 😆
🚫 We weren't overflowing with positive energy.
🚫 We weren't floating around in a perfect vibration.
🚫 We weren't free from fear or doubt.
🚫 We didn't trust the Universe to magically bring it to us.
🚫 We weren't repeating "thank you, thank you, thank you."
We were simply determined. 💪
✨ What Actually Helped Us
One of the messages of Law of Attraction we struggled with most was the idea that we should ignore reality.
We understand the intention behind it.
If you're trying to quit smoking, it probably doesn't help to focus on every smoker you see.
But ignoring reality can also become a form of denial.
If we're worried about money, the bills don't disappear just because we visualize abundance.
If life is difficult, pretending everything is fine doesn't change reality.
For us, what worked was something much simpler.
We could acknowledge reality.
✓ The setbacks.
✓ The fears.
✓ The uncertainty.
And still decide where we were going.
To us, that's not negative thinking.
That's trusting ourselves. 💛
💭 One Thought To Leave You With
These days, we don't believe we have to earn our manifestations by being positive every minute of the day.
✅ We're allowed to have bad days.
✅ We're allowed to feel afraid.
✅ We're allowed to worry.
✅ We're allowed to be human.
Because after all these years, this is what we've come to believe:
You don't have to trust that you'll always feel positive.
But you can trust yourself to keep going anyway. 💛
Now we're curious...
