Now what is Chris talking about this time? Friends, to get it all, you have to let it all go. Let's look at this.
The universe works in mysterious ways, and I can't even begin to explain it, heck, I don't understand it, but there are some immutable laws set in place by God (or the universe, or fate - whatever works for you), that have to be observed for prosperity to come to you. Randy Gage, my extended mentor is heard to say often, "You can' be treated for prosperity, you must be open to receive it". This is very true. As prosperous people engaging in a philosophy of abundance, we have to realise that we can't 'get' prosperous by just reading books, listening to tapes and getting ready to get ready. It just doesn't work that way. To have, do and be everything you want, you must be open to receiving the abundance that God has in store for you.
However, and here is the catch, you can't be needing it. You can't be desperate for it. Have you ever noticed how sometimes, when you chase something it seems to get further away. Sort of like those Hollywood horror flicks where the hero is running along a corridor, being chased by the madman, only to find that with each step toward the door, the door is getting further away. Well, prosperity and abundance works on the same principle. God does not intend for us to want for anything, but then again, neither does he intend for us to be greedy, needy, selfish human beings, worshipping the dollar. You must strike a balance between abundance and celebration of your material things.
But how do you get them?
You must let go.
At the end of this message, I will share with you a technique you can use to start manifesting your dreams into reality. It's very simple and fun.
But first...let go of the outcome.
You have no control over the outcome. All you can do is control your activities, your body and mind. If you want an extra $15,000 at the end of this month. You can have it, but you must be willing to let go, to release your intellectual need to rationalise the request, to prove it wrong, to make it normal and within the bounds of your reality. Let it flow out to the universe and if you have asked with enough intent, with enough charged emotion, the universe will start the ball moving in your direction.
So, concentrate on what you can control. Make the phone call, talk to that prospect, pick up the ad, follow your gut instinct. You must be open to that inner voice that tells us all what the right thing is to do. Maybe that little voice (I like to call mine little Chris) will sound looney. Yep, maybe! But what have you got to lose? Listen to your heart, to your soul and follow those little nudges that you get. They are prosperity, God and the universe in action, guiding you to your goal.
Let go of the result. The trick is to want, to expect, without needing. It's a fine line, but on one side is abundance and on the other is not.
Now, to the little exercise. You can do this every night. It's simple.
Step 1 - What do you want?
Okay, sounds like a dumb question, but you really need to know what you want. Be specific. It's no good saying I want 1 million dollars. You need to be specific. "I want 1 million dollars delivered to me by the universe by 31st December 2005. I ask this and am open to receive this or something better. Thank you God."
Yes, don't forget to thank God, or the universe, or whatever faith/beliefs drive you.
Step 2 - Meditate on this.
Every night before you head to bed, find a quiet area (even if its the bathroom) and meditate on your intention. Think about how it will feel to have your desire? What will it smell like, taste like? What emotions will you feel? What will your friends say? Engage as many of your sense as you can. Close your eyes and picture it. Let it tingle all through your body. If it helps you, play some soft, soothing music in the background. I find the sound of waves crashing to be especially relaxing.
Step 3 - Take the little voice for a walk
When you ask of the universe, the universe will answer through the little voice in your heart. These are what I call universal God nudges. They are the steps you need to take that will lead you to your goal. Perhaps it won't be obvious, but don't analyse. Let it go. Your conscious mind cannot see the big picture. It will try to analyse, to rationalise, to apply reality to anything you ask. Don't let it. Command your mind and simply accept that somehow, your intent will come to you. Take action in line with your little voice. This is VITAL. If you listen and do nothing, you get nothing. One of my favourite sayings is that God does for you, what he can do through you. Take action.
Step 4 - Let go
You've done the hard part. Now leave it to the universe to deliver. Remember, don't need the outcome. Expect it but know that you will be fine with or without it.
I hope this has been useful for you.
