This is Not How This Story Ends. Instead . . .

You know those times, big and small, that trigger your fear, anger, jealous, and sadness? A loved one becomes sick. An accident happens. Someone achieves something you yourself want. You lose something dear to you.
In each of these moments, your emotional response is appropriate just for you. Any responses that is not happiness reveals that you want something else instead.

• If a dear one becomes sick, your sadness and worry indicate you want the person well.
• If an accident happens, and people and things are harmed or lost, your sadness and anger show you want these people and things safe and comfortable

• If someone achieves something you yourself want, your anger and jealousy reveal you want what they have too. (Note: Having it too does not mean the other person can’t also have it.)
• If you lose something, your worry, sadness, and anger mean you want it found.

 
But you don’t really want to stay angry, sad, worried, fearful, or jealous for an extended period, because that’s not helpful. You have a life to live.

So what can you do?

Tell yourself: “This is not how this story ends. Instead . . . . . .”

Once you tell yourself this, you begin to realize what you really want.

• If a dear one is sick, you want them well (or some other positive thought).
• If an accident happens, you want things repaired and healed, however that may look.
• If your jealous of someone’s achievement, you realize what you want.
• If you’ve lost something, you want it found (or something else.)

When you realize what you want, affirm it. Actually say aloud or to yourself: I want _______________.  Create the intention so it can manifest. (Read why it's important to defy reality and create good.)

Then imagine it coming about. Does it feel good? If so, you’re on the right track. If it doesn’t feel good, go back and search for what you really, really want that will make you feel happy.

Two ways you can improve your intention are:

1. Want everyone and everything included the topic to get what they want, even if you don’t know what that might be. 
2. Give yourself what you really want. No need to be greedy or vengeful. You getting what you want doesn’t mean someone else loses. There’s plenty. (Read why it's so important you have what you really desire.)

Once you’ve figured out what you want, and you’ve affirmed or intended it, get out of the way and let your creative energy and the universe do their magic. Hold the intention, but get out of the way. Keep the faith, no matter how long.

Here’s an example:

My husband Dave’s a lawyer. In court, a judge told Dave’s clients they didn’t need to pay their legal bill in a bankruptcy case. This was insane, of course.

When Dave told me about this, I was really disturbed because the man I love was being mistreated very unfairly. I suggested Dave lodge a complaint. Dave explained that plan could backfire if he ever found himself in this judge’s courtroom again.

Naturally I felt angry. But I decided: This is not how this story ends. I want Dave to be paid for the work and hours he put in for his client.

Three (three!!!!!) months later, Dave’s client wrote him a check for their legal bill. Why? Because they needed him to for them on another issue.

I could never have guessed how my decision that Dave would be paid would actually play out. That’s the beauty of intentions. Like I love to say, “Thinking the right thoughts takes the work out of doing.”

Try this out for the next day or two. What new reality do you create for yourself?

”This book fills in all the holes that the other books left me with.”

I cannot say enough about this book. I have read almost all of the famous books out there about the mind-body connection and how your body reacts/responds/creates your life from a combination of your thoughts, feelings and beliefs, including but not limited to "Ask and it is Given," by Esther and Jerry Hicks & "Excuse me, your life is waiting," by Lynn Grabhorn and several others. This book fills in all the holes that the other books left me with! M. Vertalino The Happiness Path Buy on Amazon  ($11.99)  Kindle ($2.99)
