Trying Too Hard May Be the Single Barrier to Your Experience of Happiness

I promise you if you have been working hard on manifesting your dreams, you are probably a thin veil away from watching it come into existence. The space for its existence is likely the only missing element. Later you will get very clear that what you are looking for matters greatly. A person who has been working for years, seemingly going round and round trying to make something happen is not 'expecting' that today is going to be drastically different than yesterday. What's missing is the space and when you are clear about what that is, you can create as much as you like. Let's look at why trying too hard is resistance and not space creating.

Some people I know seem to have no reason to be less than happy, and if they weren't trying so hard to be happy they might discover they already were. By staying in this mode called 'I haven't arrived yet' not only prevents one from experiencing happiness and joy of the moment, it also inhibits their opportunity to ride the next wave. Much of this has to do with not being able to recognize that what one is seeking is the experience of life and not the appearance of life. Things are not fixed, they are brought into existence first at the level of energy and it grows into physical form. Everything you have ever desired exists at one level or another, but they are always alive the conception of the idea. The things you have been working on are alive already.

Happiness and joy is a state of freedom, pure space and a condition of no resistance. We are naturally seeking better feeling emotions and this is a path necessary for life expansion. The trap is to fail to recognize that unless you give up the notion that you are not already happy you will believe something outside and separate from you is the source of it. If you have 'money problems' and you say you can not be happy until you have money, then it would be better to work on being happy and the money will come.

Energy precedes everything in the physical universe, even your thoughts. Unless you can experience being happy exactly where you are, you are saying you are not happy, and that is what you get, instantaneously. The moment you let go of the tight grip you have on that emotion, releasing it with the intent to feel better, even just a little bit better, you create the space for the circumstances to change. The bottom line is, being in a place of happiness is a path of least resistance for the movement for like thoughts to easily move towards one another.

The more happiness and joy you notice you are experiencing the more becomes available to you. Only a small portion of your time on earth has been unhappy. Shine light there and on what is to come. There is a difference in experiencing it and acknowledging that you had something to do with it. It is like those individuals who never get their own beauty and are always trying to improve upon it. They don't get to enjoy it as they are continually in the mode, of being less than what they desire. Or the ballplayer that has tremendous talent but comes from the point of view that he or she is not good enough or capable enough.

One way to see this is to know that your experience of the energy force in your life is ongoing and never ending. What you are calling forth in your experience is adding to what is formulating and soon to be in the physical appearance of life. It may not seem that way to you but at one level it is pure physics. To think that you don't matter is to fail to recognize that without you, the deliberate intention to focus attention could not be. Knowing you are alive is something privy to you.

Focusing awareness on the intelligence of our higher self is worthwhile. It knows even when you forget. Your actions speak to your intent and your higher self moves to bring life to what you are giving attention. So if your actions suggest that you do not feel you have arrived yet, the appearance of life will validate your perception and you can not experience otherwise. To understand that at every instance you are receiving what you have attention on can be beyond your comprehension, but when you can see that things come into existence from a place of energy first, you see that all along the way all that you have been asking for through your actions will remain in non-physical form until it manifests.

You attract what you give attention to and though you may not recognize it as your intention, it never the less is. What you expect, as in your fixed expectations, is what you look for, consciously or not. You intend to find what you are looking for and it is always fits in your expectations. You can however deliberately choose better feeling thoughts about any subject.

As soon as you realize what you want is created and has been building itself by attracting likeness, you will realize it needs the space in which to grow. This is partly what was meant by the action of resting on the seventh day. This is more relevant than you can imagine. Let the fruits of your desire unfold according to the natural brilliance of the universe. Give it the space of no resistance, the space of allowing it to be, just as we do the seeds after planting them. Appreciate it for its divine nature. Feel the idea of letting go and letting it grow. Allow yourself some space to let your higher self do the job.

If you see something here in this article that inspires you, continue to gather for yourself more on the law of attraction. Abraham-Hicks is the leading source on this subject. In addition, you can search me on Amazon or the internet for the practical applications of the law of attraction. Remember, the key is to seek happiness and joy in all situations and circumstances.
