Manifesting Abundance - 3 Easy Tips on How to Remove Doubt When Using the Law of Attraction

When you're using the Law of Attraction, doubt is by far the biggest culprit as to why you're not successfully manifesting abundance. It is the equivalent of weeds in your garden, or pouring salt in your soil where you plant seeds, because it prevents the likelihood of any desire taking form.

Here are three easy tips to eliminate any doubt once and for all:

1) Stop focusing on the "how".
Anytime you're using the laws of reality creation for manifesting abundance, asking yourself "how" things are going to come into fruition, you will IMMEDIATELY get into your logical mind where you start questioning how possible your desires are, which induces doubt.

Always focus on the what, NEVER the "how".

2) Never resist the feeling of doubt
What happens when you get the feeling of fear or doubt that your desires will never come into fruition? You try and make it go away. When this happens, it just makes the feeling stronger and causes it to linger. Whatever you resist persists. Rather, when the feeling of doubt arises, breath deeply, feel the feeling in your body, and allow it to go through you without judging it.

When you do this, the feeling will soon pass.

3) Focus on "having" instead of "wanting"
When you're focused on "wanting" something, you're leaving the door open to fear of not ever getting it, which produces doubt of whether you're going to manifest it or not. However, if you are able to focus on what it'll feel like to already have it, you're eliminating any possibility of doubt, because your mind can't tell the difference between something "real" and something vividly imagined.

Thus, by accepting the feeling of already manifesting abundance, you're leaving no room for doubt.

Speaking of which, were you aware that there are factors OTHER than doubt that can TOTALLY screw up your chances of manifesting abundance just as much as doubt can?

One of these factors is ignorance.

You see, most people don't understand the WHOLE picture of reality creation and think that it's only about the Law of Attraction. 

This tidbit of misinformation that is spread around by many so called Law of Attraction 'gurus" has caused many people to fail at creating the reality they desire.

If you're one of them, take heart, I too was once lost, and there's nothing wrong with me or you, it's only that we weren't given enough information to successfully create our own realities.

Creating Abundance Through Joy - Finding Your Passion

To discover your life's vocation is to observe what you most love to do, what you seem to want to do naturally and what skills you've learned along the way. When you love what you do and you're doing what you love time goes by unnoticed; you feel fulfilled. When you are fulfilled, nothing else matters; making money doing it is immaterial to you because the driving force is joy, not money. In this state of being, you radiate joy and therefore, by the Law of Attraction, only more joy can come to you.  

So the question becomes, when you let go of your (and everyone else's) preconceived notions about who and what you should be, what are you automatically drawn to? What skills do you enjoy using? When you release what feels like effort and choose to focus only on what brings true joy to your heart, your life's work will evolve from that joy coupled with the use of your natural and learned skills.
  
Sometimes we have a limited perspective of what one could consider a "skill" and that can interfere with our ability to see our own gifts. Skills are not necessarily visually obvious...such as being a great artist or designing magnificent buildings. Skills are not necessarily audible such as being a musician or a great orator. Your skill and joy can come from something as simple as being an uplifter to those with whom you come in contact. Perhaps you enjoy creating beautiful environments or working with plants.  

Perhaps you like sewing or making little ornaments out of unusual pieces of wood. It doesn't matter if the world would define your skill as grand. It's how it makes you feel inside that is important. I know of a man named Colonel Sanders whose skill was hidden in a chicken recipe he had. He totally believed in the magnificence of his recipe. One day it occurred to him that others might like it as well, that perhaps he could sell it and make money. Thus Kentucky Fried Chicken was born.

Initially I had trouble identifying my passion because, "I didn't have a passion. All I wanted to do was study the higher mind teachings and figure out how to apply those to daily living." I didn't realize that this was my passion...that my niche was in my inherent ability to see the latent potential in those who aspired to know their authentic selves and to help them manifest this potential on earth. The passion was so close to my heart that I was blind to it, thinking I had to take up music or art of some sort when all I really wanted to do was find the God-Self within.   
So where is your passion hiding? Start by identifying that which brings you joy. What would you do if you didn't have to worry about money or other restrictions or obligations? Here we find the direction of your soul's work. You don't have to have a business proforma ready to produce to the world just yet. Just enjoy being in your joy! Then concentrate on using the special skills you have acquired along the way and appreciate that you have them.  

Attend to them. Make them bigger. Make the joy bigger. See how you can use those skills in other areas of your life so that you are turning all your activities into expressions of your life's work. This will begin the process of drawing opportunities to you for making money and supporting yourself.

As always, whenever you're feeling great about what you are doing, make the "greatness" bigger.  Visualize yourself becoming aware of ideas as they come to you. See yourself ready to take action when opportunity presents itself. See yourself being supported by the universe for your endeavors; making money easily and effortlessly as ideas begin to take shape. Create these pictures first; building an etheric prototype of your ideal and allowing it to morph into "the perfect idea". This will also take some of the angst out of trying too hard to hear a nebulous voice inside of you; making you more and more receptive to the plan that your soul is emitting to you. Allow your inner creativity to expand your concepts about what is possible and worry not about whether you have all the required skills to create it. 

Opportunities for further development will flow to you naturally as "next steps" as you live into your dream. Stretch your imagination, and your ability to manifest will develop as well. By milking the joy of your personal expression, by making it grand and seeing it as the seed for bringing value into the world; by appreciating the skills and talents that you already possess; by going beyond what you think is possible, you will find the key that opens the doorway to your unlimited potential.

How to Manifest Abundance With Deliberate Creation and Improve Your Intuition

by Dianne M. Buxton

When I first learned about the Law of Attraction I was really exhilarated. I had had many difficulties in my life and was pretty disillusioned about everything. The prospect of gaining a foothold and recovering was slim.

I had read a little about quantum physics, and I already had observed that beliefs governed what happened in peoples' lives. I needed to improve my intuition as to how to get ahead. I had always believed that one reaps what one sows, so my focused intention became to concentrate on my son, and my daily tasks.

The main factor of turning things around started with making time for deliberate creation. The only way I could do this was to get up an hour or more earlier every morning. For a few minutes I sat and looked out at the grass and trees outside, did nothing more.

There were no manifesting courses or any "secrets" to discover. I simply reflected back on some of the inspiring writings such as "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. I didn't have a copy but I remembered the basic principles.

Currently, there are many manifesting courses available. The idea has become mainstream almost. In the traditional religions, having faith that God will provide a miracle is the stable belief.

I had a startling thought recently: all the tens or hundreds of thousands of people who buy manifesting materials DON"T BELIEVE!

Or perhaps more correctly, many believe that God is good and will provide, except not for them as an individual. Somehow they are defected or tainted in some way. They are not good enough. That's a tough one, and it really closes the door on realizing abundance and related goodness. If a person feels tortured by this idea, I think they should get professional help.

If you have arrived at the point where you want to improve your intuition, and learn how to access more positive thoughts and emotions, take some quiet time every day, and just start day dreaming. Simple, and free.

If you find that you are ready to effect a lifestyle change and use every moment of every day to keep your attention on creating the vibration of attracting money and related abundance, get a manifesting course that simplifies the process for you.

How to Create Abundance in Your Life

by Gini Grey

Where do you have abundance in your life? Where don't you? It's possible to have abundance in all areas of our lives, if we can allow it to come in. When I look outside right now I see an abundance of flowers in my garden with an abundance of bees, moths and butterflies swirling around. At night there is an abundance of stars in the sky and I am reminded of the nature of the universe: ever expanding and abundant.

It is only in our minds that we create limitations to the abundance we can have and already do have in life. Watching, reading or listening to the news and woes of others, it is easy to shift into a state of fear and lack. In reality scarcity does not exist unless we believe it does. When we take the time to connect to our inner truth and listen to our hearts, we know that we have everything we need right in this moment and can bring whatever we need into the next moment.

When we get focused on the distant future, wondering if we will have our needs met, it is easy to slip into speculation and doubt which can spiral into fear and worry. Re-focusing on the here and now and checking to see if all our current needs are being met, brings us back into a state of ease.

Insights Into Your Levels of Abundance

Reflect on these questions to see how you prevent or create more abundance in your life:
  • Do you spend more time focusing on what you do have, or on begrudging what you don't have in life? Notice how you feel when you focus on what you don't have - is this emotional, physical, mental state likely to bring you what you want, or keep you stuck in a state of lack?

  • In the areas where you do have abundance in your life, what are the reasons you can have this abundance (start with obvious surface reasons and then move to underlying beliefs about yourself and the world that support you in having this abundance).

  • In the areas where you don't have abundance and would like to have more, explore your reasons why you don't have what you want (once you've finished blaming you're boss, spouse, kids, government and the universe for getting in the way, move to your core beliefs about yourself that undermine you).

Inspiring Exercises to Create Abundance in Your Life
  • Center within yourself and imagine having all the abundance you want in your life - let yourself see, feel and experience this. Now ask yourself, what beliefs you would need to hold about yourself in order to attract this abundance into your life.

  • Find three ways to incorporate these supporting beliefs into your daily life and practice these until they become automatic (there's writing affirmations on post-it-notes, visualizing daily and so on, see if you can come up with any other creative ways to remind yourself daily of your truth).

  • Set time aside each day to reflect on all the things you do have in your life and what you are grateful for, as what you focus on grows and being in a state of gratitude will not only feel good, but will give you the confidence to create more.
As you practice focusing on the abundance that already exists in your life, you will attract more abundance. And as you shift your limiting, scarcity, beliefs into supportive, abundant beliefs, you will live an abundant life.

Personal Responsibilities in Creating Abundance

by Abu Aremu

One of the obstacles you might encounter in creating abundance or manifesting your desires is your unwillingness to accept total responsibilities for your life. Another one is refusal to accept that it is your responsibility to shape your life, not anyone else. This is so because you are not created to blame another person for your personal setbacks or failures.

Accepting responsibilities for your shortcomings and failures is a vital step towards your realization that you personally determine your own life, successes and failures. In other words you must not see any other person or circumstances as the cause of your shortcomings.

By recognizing that your thoughts and actions are the keys to manifesting your desires and the freedom to creating the life we want, you are making progress towards creating abundance.
In using personal responsibilities to manifest your desires, the following tips will be of assistance to you:

1.Stop Criticisms and Complaints
By criticizing other people or complaining about someone else you are creating a negative energy. Also by thinking negative about another person you are putting up a negative vibration and adding to your negative emotions. Therefore, as a rule you should stop criticizing or complaining.

2. Stop Making Excuses or Personal Justifications
When you make excuses or try to justify your wrong behavior you are taking wasteful steps and adding to your negative emotions. These are pointless exercise that produce no success at all. What you suppose to do is apologize for your mistakes or wrong doings, and ask for how you can do it right. This will set you free and put you on a good footing to creating abundance.

3. Accept Responsibilities
You should learn to accept responsibilities for your mistakes and willful wrong doings. You must accept that you are the one who have shaped your own life and created what you are today. You would also be the creator of what you would be in future. You must stop to apportion blames to someone else, but yourself.

4. Don't Be At Mercy Of Others
Whatever happens don't blame others or circumstances. This could be a bitter pill for us to swallow, but the truth is that we're responsible for creating our lives. Therefore, we must learn to face our responsibilities squarely and stop putting it at the mercy of other people. Look for solutions to whatever happens.

5. Start A New Beginning
By the time you start a new life by following these principles of creating abundance, you would feel increasingly positive and creative. You'll generate new love, hope, peace, and happiness, and positive emotions will flow in you. You'll now be in a position to improve your relationships with other people and a new excitement for creativity and manifesting your desires will be in you.

Living With an Abundance Attitude

by Terry Sercast

I sum up an abundance attitude in 5 short words:

Being, Giving, Loving, Experiencing, and Growing

Each of these words do have profound meanings which I go into on the page but right now I'm going to give you a short meaning to each of them so, if you are just reading this article you will still have the ability to create your own abundance attitude.

Being, is simply just letting yourself go and accepting everything around you and especially in your mind. Focusing on one thing...the moment.

Giving, by giving you are saying that there are more important things than your own emotions and that goes miles. If you give you immediately feel a sense of satisfaction...that is giving.

Loving, is there somebody in your life that you love? That you truly and deeply love? Show them every single day, show them every time they look in your eyes, have those beautiful thoughts and allow yourself to love another. In loving another you are loving yourself.

Experiencing, this goes hand in hand with learning, the more you learn the more you'll experience. This will allow you to develop as a person and live!

Growing, if you seriously take solid steps in these directions, then there is no place for you to go but out. You will grow and you will see the world in different ways, those thoughts you thought you'd never have as a child....you just might.

An abundance attitude is not a possession, it is not something you can own. It is something you live with. A perspective that you choose to see through, therefore, another product will not get you an abundance attitude, nor will another person; simply you and your own thoughts and experience could humble you to the point of living through an abundance attitude.

Seven Simple Steps to Attract Abundance and Prosperity to You Now!

by Carolyn Porter

1. Pay attention to what you say - your words indicate what you think and feel. This is where it all begins and where change can occur. When your thoughts tell you there isn't enough, that something is missing, you are in lack consciousness. Know it's okay for those thoughts to surface for we all find ourselves in this place at times, but don't remain there!

2. As the thoughts of 'can't have it' or 'not enough' surface into your consciousness, visualize a mental garbage pail and toss those thoughts in it. Tell yourself you know this is not a truth and you no longer need that thought, so you're trashing it. Then immediately focus your thoughts on something good.

3. Surrender your dis-empowering thoughts about lack. You've recognized their existence and have begun to toss out those unwanted thoughts, but now ask for Divine assistance to help you change your thinking. Here's where your real power is!

4. Remind yourself that you deserve all the good things you desire. Most individuals fall down with their manifestation at this point because they genuinely don't believe they deserve the good. People who say "What else would you expect? Things like this always happen to me" are simply saying they don't deserve the good so don't expect it. Duh! So why do you complain when abundance passes you by since you set yourself up for more lack?

5. Look around at all you presently have and are. Make a physical list of the things and people who are blessing your life right now and read it daily - your home, family, health, job, friends, etc. - and everyday things from the easy drive home from work that day to the neighbor who surprised you by cutting your grass, even though it was shorter than you like it! Be grateful for everything in your life, including the extra bill facing you that you're not sure how you're going to pay. As you do this you will see changes in the way you perceive life and the way life responds to you. Remember, it must be genuine because your spirit knows what your truth is.

6. Now do nothing! That's right - do nothing. The universe will begin immediately to bring your desires, but you must get out of the way. This is so hard for most people because we are used to being in control, thinking we must make things happen. Don't do it or you'll block the flow of abundance that's on its way to you. When abundance and you are in alignment it will simply flow effortlessly to you in amazing ways.

7. Say "thank you." Even though your desires haven't manifested yet, become grateful for them before they are seen. By this you are saying you know they will arrive and you're acknowledging this as a sign of your belief; this is called faith.

These simple steps will take you to the realm of abundance and prosperity. I know because I'm living proof that it works. Although I say they are simple steps, it is often not an easy task to shift your entire way of thinking and believing. Know that in the beginning it might even be difficult and you may be tempted to give up when doubts creep in. Don't give up! It's not something that happens overnight. Success in everything requires taking baby steps to achieve the desired end result. Follow these guidelines listed above and watch the miracles unfold in your life! And as the abundance and prosperity flows to you effortlessly, then move forward through the doors that open to you.

Here are some examples of how to change your thoughts and words from lack to abundance:

Lack: I wish I had the money to buy a new car, or at least one that's newer with less problems.
Abundance: Thank you for sending the resources to buy the perfect car for me, one that runs beautifully.

Lack: We can't ever seem to get ahead with our finances.
Abundance: I choose freedom from debt by making wiser choices with my finances.

Lack: There just isn't enough money; we're always having so many things break down.
Abundance: I am grateful for the money I have to pay the bills I can and know the rest will come in Divine timing.

Lack: I hate my job. It is boring but pays the bills so I guess I'm stuck in it.
Abundance: I am grateful for my job but place the intention for a job that allows me creativity and enjoyment, and gives me my present income or more.

Lack: I've been waiting a long time for Mr./Ms. Right. All my friends have someone so why can't I?
Abundance: I place the intention for my soulmate to show up in the right and perfect timing.

Do not try to figure anything out - no details, no plan, no manipulation. Simply say the words and let it go, then watch all the pieces come together. State exactly what you want. It is really that simple! When it doesn't work, it is because you got in the way of the Divine flow and blocked it.
Sometimes the easiest things in life seem to be the hardest. Is it because we expect something of value to be hard, that we must work hard to obtain it? Or is it the old thought that it must be too good to be true. I can promise you that the best things in life are free and come without strings attached, and they all come from LOVE!
