Procrastination? No Such Thing!
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Did you ever beat yourself up for procrastinating about some job/project/goal you decided you should have done? Well, that’s too bad. Maybe I can help you with a more freeing perspective. The way I see it, you should be congratulating yourself for following your Cosmic GPS that told you things weren’t lined up yet, so it wasn’t time to take action.
There is no such thing as procrastination. If you feel inspired to do something, then you are aligned with “all that is.” If you don’t feel motivated or inspired, then your thoughts and energy are not lined up yet—but that is not procrastination. You shouldn’t do anything unless it feels right, good, and obvious.
The projects, goals, or actions you have set into motion in your mind got created in the world of quantum physics the instant you put your attention on them. Certainly just sitting around and waiting for the delivery of your dream is not gonna happen. So what to do? Well, it’s more about “how to be” than “what to do.” Here are some possible new perspectives:
• If you don’t feel inspired yet to take action, then the timing is not perfect yet. The Universe has your back. Relax.
• If you do feel inspired but aren’t creating the time, then likely you have an underlying belief in your way. Your job is to remember who you are and have that disappear. That’s what we do in Get Out of Your Own Way and part of what will happen in the Peace & Health in Your Body and on the Planet workshop.
• You may be attached. This normally happens because you erroneously think when this “dream comes true,” the following will be true:
1. You are now validated somehow or
2. Life will be better now because your circumstance changed or
3. You will be proving to yourself or others that you are now ok or
4. You will fit in with everyone who is successful or finally
5. You will have “made it.”
The Universe would never support you in manifesting something that is rooted in a lie. There is an underlying untruth to each of these points. The truth is:
1. You are worthy and valid because you are alive.
2. Happiness is a choice; it is not due to circumstances changing—and they won’t change until you integrate that.
3. If “All that Is” decided it was cool for you to be here, then who do you need to prove your worth to?
4. People who are successful AND happy are generally members of the Not Belonging Club, which means by definition that they strive to not “fit in.”
5. Making it to joy and fulfillment can only happen from the inside out. Your outer world can only reflect your inner world.
There may also be something so much better coming. As soon as you focus on what is working in your life, the new path will become clear. Being grateful only leads to more miracles. The great news is that if you are truly present to how blessed you are, you won’t need your dream to come true in order to feel better.

Got a Light? I Hope So!
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
I have a question for you. What is more important:
1. Shining your light to inspire hundreds
or
2. Worrying about things out of your control because you think it is justified?
It is not more virtuous to worry. After all, you rob us all of your magnificence when you do that. And frankly, we prefer you when you glow!
How do you make the biggest difference in the world? Well, you make the biggest difference not by feeling bad for others, but by using the struggles of others (in the Third World, in your family, on the streets) to inspire you more to Get Out of Your Own Way.
For you see, until you know for yourself that you can shine, live in ease, generate joy, and find a new path, you can never know that reality is possible for another. In fact, without knowing that you can do it for yourself, you will not be able to truly lift another up to their potential because you will have little to teach.
When you shine the light of your purpose, you ignite the lights of hundreds around you. When you worry about those around you who are not yet ready to be lit up, you rob hundreds of others of your light. Look for those who are ready to be lit up; don’t be dimmed by those who have yet to be plugged in.
Did you know that when you feel down, worried, or sorry for another, you are feeding into the concept of powerlessness on the Planet? You don’t want to do that, do you? Shine, my friend—it’s time to shine!
(P.S. That doesn’t mean don’t comfort or soothe your loved ones. Just be conscious of where you are coming from when you do that.)
No one can ever dim your light without your distinct permission. Do the world a favor, and wake up to who you are: incredible, magnificent, powerful, loved, adored, juicy, special. After all, you wouldn’t want to rob us all of that, would you?

Difference of Opinion About What Is Best
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
I’ve been busy teaching two Get Out of Your Own Way™ courses, and I am just feeling so blessed. It truly is a privilege to help people wake up to their magnificence and just radiate who they really are. Which brings me to my point…
My Get Out of Your Own Way™ course really is for the people who don’t want to read or talk about their dreams anymore; they are ready to soar, to live in full connection and transcend all self-sabotage. Have you noticed that some people aren’t ready yet though?
There are many paths to well-being. This week I talked with a wonderful woman who wanted to help her Mom, who is in some serious pain. The issue is that this woman had ideas about what her mother should do (with alternative health and all sorts of visits to RMT’s and chiros). But her mother was wanting to take medications and put up with a certain level of suffering, which the woman did not accept as ok. The woman got more and more frustrated that her Mom would not do things her way.
Isn’t it great to know that you are always right? Problems come when you try to be right for another person. You have your Divine Connection and they have theirs. The best way to help another is to guide them to what their heart says—not to what your heart says. Or say nothing; at least then, they can hear.
When someone is not receiving what you are giving, it’s not because they are “daft.” It’s because you are not giving what they are willing to receive! Love, hugs, laughter, and drives to the doctor are what her Mom was open to receive. So for her Mom, Doctor + Unconditional Love = Healing. And for the daughter, Alternative Health + Freedom = Healing. Who is right? Both of them.
It is not your job to determine what someone else needs (unless they ask, but even then, give them the right to say no). Like you, others have their own connection to Divine Wisdom. Just because one way worked for you doesn’t mean another way can’t work perfectly well for someone else. How can someone else (including your children) listen to their own guidance if they are being bombarded with someone elses? Just a thought.
If you’re on the receiving end of someone trying to give you unsolicited advice, simply smile and thank them so very much for caring about you. Then allow your heart to point the way. Be kind, as you are teaching them that you are right for you!

The Speed of Manifestation
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Have you ever had a desire and then been really impatient about it showing up? If you assume that Creation always has your back, then you know that it is coming in perfect timing. Stop taking score. The Universe delivers faster than the speed of light, so if you are waiting for what you asked for, you are the only one with your foot on the brakes.
Does the Universe judge you, assess your deserving, hold off or make decisions on your behalf? No, it does not. You see, the wonderful Creative Force that makes worlds is truly flowing right through you. It is what causes you to have life.
That means that your mind focuses that energy in whatever direction you put it. And based on the Laws that run the Universe, what you put your attention on is created instantly. It instantly exists in the ethers and is waiting for someone (anyone—including you) to line up with the creation.
What do I mean by line up with the creation? I mean feel the deserving, the worth, the love, the joy, and the abundance of your life, and be fully aware of your blessings, such that your desire seems like the obvious next step.
The Universe/quantum physics does not judge whether you deserve it, whether it’s right for you, or it there is some other thing you should live to learn a lesson first. The Universe simply creates the perfect circumstances, place, and timing, and you will see it all unfold as you realize how “already blessed” you are.
If you would like to put the brakes on the process, simply believe that your life will be infinitely better when your desire comes to fruition. The Universe would never support that lie.
Your job is to find ways to feel blessed. Only more blessing should come.
Oh, by the way, when you launch a desire into creation, I highly recommend that you add the phrase “or better” to the end of your request. Why? Because your limited brain can only think of things in terms of what you have seen or experienced, and the Universe can see all possibilities.
So think of 3 blessings right now. Why not?
Nothing comes in “your timing” but it always comes in “perfect timing.” Oh yes, it does! And when you notice something hasn’t arrived yet, your foot is on the brakes! Let go, my friend.
Vroom vroom!

Are You Icing a Mudpie with Your Affirmations?
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Do you remember the guy on Saturday Night Live who used to pretend he was a personal growth Guru, and he would look in the mirror and say things like “I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and gosh darn it people like me”? And do you also remember that you could tell that most of what he was saying wasn’t true? The Universe can’t deliver what you don’t believe.
Creating momentum with vibration
If you are going to use positive self-talk or affirmations, or post great words at your desk that you can look at, make sure you believe what you are posting, or it will cause a conflict in metaphysics. Positive thinking over top of beliefs that are still limited is called “icing a mudpie.” No matter how you slice it, the end result might look ok, but it is gonna taste bad.
Also, if you are not feeling “blessed by what currently exists,” your vibration will be against what you desire instead. New mantra: satisfied by what is, and excitedly anticipating more. Let me give you some examples:
Inefficient affirmations you might not believe
My thighs are slim, my tummy is tight—I am gorgeous (when your thighs and tummy are “experienced”)
I have more than enough money—abundance is pouring to me (when you feel you are struggling)
I am with the mate of my dreams (when you are upset with your mate or not with anyone)
More efficient
My body has carried me well, my arms have held babies, and I have seen sunsets—my body blesses me.
I always find a way to be nourished and have shelter and clothing. Abundance has come in many forms, and so it will continue to with even more gusto, because I am grateful.
When I ask, the Universe responds 100% of the time. Every past relationship has created a more perfect future connection and I will settle for nothing less. I am excited for what is to come.
See the difference?
Instead of icing a mudpie, just create a new cake! Today, don’t ignore, or “positive think” things. Simply remember that the Universe has your back, and if you surrender, the answer will come. While you are doing that, turn toward your blessings and count every one of ‘em.
Jennifer Hough
P.S. The same applies to writing in a journal. Don’t write about your problems, or you will get more. If you do write about your problems, commit to soothing yourself through your writing. Better yet—simply write about your blessings, and trust that the Universe will work the other stuff out.
Ever Say, “I Don’t Have Time”?
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Every once in a while, I get an email from someone who says that they read the Law of Attraction blogs on the weekends because they don’t have time during the week. That’s an amazing shot of “great vibes” to take in all at once! However, just consider that “I don’t have time” is an illusion. It would be more powerful to say, “I choose not to read them until the weekend” because, of course, you get to say how your life goes.
Where does the time go? You have probably heard before that time is an illusion that humanity created to be able to have an infrastructure so that we could live on a Planet. Then again, we have all had the experience of timelessness.
If you truly were put on the planet for the purpose of creating and expanding your joy—and therefore the possibility of joy for everyone—then that is the yardstick by which to choose what you do—whether it expands joy or not. Creation adores you so very much that if you say you don’t have enough time, it will allow you to live in that lie. Isn’t it great that you are so unlimited, you actually have the capacity to create limits.
Most people measure their days by how much they got done as opposed to how much joy they experienced. When you live life under the illusion that getting stuff done is really important, you will not have time. When you live life under a much more inspiring illusion called “I use the stuff I do as an excuse to express myself and my creativity and expand what’s possible,” then time will disappear.
Time really is on your side
Instead of just getting things done today, find a way to appreciate and be self-expressed in each moment. Today, don’t think about the next thing to do; enjoy what you are doing now, and then go onto the next thing, and to the same! The same amount or more will get done. But even better—you will have enjoyed it!

When Someone “Lets You Down”
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Do people let us down? Or is it we who forget to use our “cosmic GPS system” (our feelings) to assess whether we want to count on them in the first place?
Sometimes we place expectations on people when really, based on where they are in their journey and who they’ve shown you they are, the expectations we have of them may be pretty unreasonable. So often, we wish that the people we care about, love, or even work with would be a different way, and then we interpret that wish as an expectation. But if the other person does not expect themselves to be another way, we will always be disappointed.
It’s not that we don’t trust others; it’s that we don’t trust ourselves to follow what our heart is telling us about others.
It is not other people’s jobs to change themselves to make you happy. The problem is not that they don’t respect or love you enough. The problem is that you had the expectation of someone who does not think the way you do.
If you simply expect others to be who they are, you won’t be disappointed. And when they shine a little, it will make you very happy.
If someone doesn’t want to play with you, it’s time to find someone who will—instead of being disappointed in the person who won’t!

How to Fix Yourself Now
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
If you have been reading these Law of Attraction blogs in order to fix your broken life, today’s the day to stop! Why? Because if you are in the energy of trying to fix something, that guarantees that your life will be endlessly broken in your perspective. Instead, look for blogs, books, and courses that inspire you—not the ones that identify your flaws. You are perfect! Find something that will help you remember that.
From this day forward, assume that everything that is happening in your life right now is perfect. Just stop taking score, my friend!
Collecting Evidence
What do you look for everyday? I hope it’s evidence that you are magnificent.
Oh, sure, sometimes you will do, say, and act on things that seem a little less that magnificent. You’ll know because you are struggling. Just know that the only reason you struggle or feel bad is that you have forgotton your incredible capacity for joy, creation, and love.
Funny how our first reaction is to fix what we think is broken, in these instances. A far more effortless way to proceed is to simply remember that if you feel bad, you are thinking and acting on untrue thoughts, like “this is hard” or “I’m not smart” or “you have to struggle before you accomplish,” etc. These are all untrue thoughts.
When you act from Truth, everything becomes effortless. Take courses that help you remember the Truth. You will thank yourself.

The Issue Is Not the Issue
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
I was just talking to a friend about money. This friend has been focused on trying to “fix” the situation, putting a lot of attention on what they want, visioning, goals, dreams, and trying to do things that feel good in order to line up more money. No wonder it isn’t working!
We human beings are magnificent creatures that are extensions of the Creative Force that makes Milky Ways. We are so powerful that as soon as we make lack of money/relationships/wars/symptoms the issue, guess what we get more of?
I shall share with you what I shared with my friend about money: The only issue is joy. Make that your focus, and you will remember your abundance, and we won’t even need to have this discussion about money.
As soon as you take action in response to a lack of anything, the “anything” must show up more because you are including it in your actions, and therefore your attention.
The issue is never the issue. The fact that you made it the issue is the issue.
The real issue is that you are trying to fix the unbroken. You are abundant! It is your birthright. If you would like to collect evidence of “lack,” the Universe loves you so much that it will give you evidence of that lie. Just because you have evidence doesn’t mean it’s the truth, though.

Abundance 101
Filed Under Law of Attraction | Leave a Comment
Am I abundant? At first, my answer to that question was “Yes, somewhat.” But then my mind and heart opened up to the real answer.
I have at least 1 person who loves me. I own a car. Nature surrounds me, and if it didn’t, I could walk to it. I get to see the stars at night. I can connect with anyone anywhere in the world through the internet. I always have enough air. I can choose what I do for a living. I can read uplifting books. And if at any time, my thoughts block me from remembering my magnificence, I have the choice to change my thoughts and focus on my blessings.
I am as abundant as it gets.
Are you abundant? YES. Now your job is to figure out why. You will know that you are abundant when you know that whatever you need is at your fingertips at any time, even when you don’t already have it.
