I love, Crys, how you see the old guy as upstream and the new guy as down. That’s so cool!!

I think your “when the season is right” words would make a great song lyric. What a powerful reminder that all is well right now; no reason to get panties twisted – even when we realize we hooked ourselves.

Because you’re right, of course, Crys – it IS ALL good!

What a treasure to have you here reminding us with such sweet words. Thank you!!

… so let’s talk about what you want.

What you REALLY want. The CORE of the desire that you’re holding. I’m talking about the true ESSENCE of it.

Do you have an idea about it?

Michael Neill says write down what you want, and then write down how that will make you feel.

He says it’s the SECOND thing that you want, not the first.

I’ve found that to be true in every experience with myself and clients I can think of.

It isn’t so much the way it looks – as it is how it makes us FEEL that we’re truly after.

I found this one out the hard way when I manifested someone specific into my life, and then discovered it wasn’t what I expected. Yes, he was there, by my side, doing it day in and day out, but what I REALLY wanted was to feel loved, connected, intimate, excited, GOOD. And that didn’t happen when I was focused on getting THIS guy in my life.

I sure enough drew that guy in, but it wasn’t what I expected.

Had I taken a different perspective and focused on how I wanted to feel in and about a relationship, then things would have turned out differently, I’m positive. (Either with him or someone else.)

Getting back to the topic of this original post, the best thing you could do to allow your highest good in is to relax, enjoy what you can enjoy in present day life, get easier about all this, and trust that good things are unfolding for you and your relationships.

As your vibe gets more in alignment with enjoyment and appreciation, then good things make a beeline for you. You don’t have to dictate all the minute details – just find ways to feel better and know that you absolutely can’t miss when it comes to your happiness.

It is coming to you – even when – or perhaps ESPECIALLY when – it doesn’t look to be the case.

Drop me a note at my email address jmaw at goodvibecoach.com and we can go into more detail if you like …

I’d also invite those of you who have experience in this area – and I know there are many of you! – to pitch in!

Thanks, all.

It has been a roller coaster ride for nearly three years now. I practiced delebrate creation to find this person and then once arrived, I started doubting and turned it into this relationship that has its moments. I want this relationship to turn into nothing more than a positive energy and have found a hard time getting there.

I found your blog to be very beneficial and something inside steared me to focus on it a bit longer–maybe a que from my guidance (ha, ha)!

You rock!

And while you and Leslie are doing ‘summertime and the live’in is easy, I’m doing winter fires, slipper socks, hot soup and home baked bread! Cozy, lovely winter is here!

I’m in love with the contrast!

Yay!

I intend to catch YOUR “summertime and the living is easy” vibe! lol

Delicious!!

You asked: “if we are wanting change, do we ask for the change in a positive vibration while still enjoying the pleasures of our less than perfect situation?”

I think that question sums it up nicely!

And Kim’s words are valuable – instead of “asking for” the change (since asking vibrationally indicates “lack”), you’d want to embrace that changed vibe NOW.

Staying (or getting to) a better-feeling vibe is extremely beneficial if you can manage it. Although I know that does take some practice.

But you can do that if you are able to truly enjoy the pleasures of the current situation – which could be challenging when we see it as “less than perfect.” It’s so much easier to enjoy “perfect,” isn’t it?

So if we could see how this current situation IS perfect, than enjoyment of it isn’t so “forced” or unnatural.

I hope that makes sense.

Let’s talk specifics, Anon!! Whatcha got goin’ on?

(I thought I’d ask you rather than dive into a personal example that may or may not have been relevant to what you’re asking about.)

It’s easier to skip the asking part and go straight to the feeling of ‘I all ready have it!’

As Jeannette has taught, it’s not the thing, the time off or the million bucks or the book deal or the fab relationship that we want anyway. It’s the feeling we think having it will give. I thought about this a lot yesterday on my last shift at the cafe. I kept thinking, this is the last time I’m going to serve this person, or this is the last time I’m going to scrub these trays or this is the last time I’ll work with these chefs… and I was absolutely filled with joy every moment.

Not joy because I wouldn’t do those things again, but joy because I ever got to do them in the first place.

Why wait to get to that feeling of ecstasy when you can have it right here, right now, at ground zero–no matter what is going on ‘out there’?

It’s all in our heads, the notion of what can bring us pleasure or pain. We choose, every time, every day!

Thank you Jeannette for your wonderful clarity on this!

So I noticed that vibe and then I decided what vibe did I want this time around. The song Summertime and the living is easy came to mind. I realized my guidance was giving me a gentle nudge.

At work I spent my half hour break sitting out in the quiet sun away from everyone, watching an eagle in the sky and feeling love and gratitude for Jeannette. It was the easy vibe and I soaked it up.

The next day I started to whine about only getting 1/2 an hour of easy summer living. And that’s when I thought, here is where the bridge is – how much more of that feeling and vibe can I incorporate in this day?…and the next day and the next day.

Until guess what I will be that vibe.

Love Leslie
