“If you could get to the place where you no longer feel
a need to push against anything that you disagree with,
you would become in alignment with what you do agree with.”
- Esther Hicks

So tell me what you want.

Is your story full of “I want not-this’s?” How much of what you think and speak of each day is banging the drum of what you do NOT desire? Saying, “I want not this” keeps us stuck.

Let me give you a few examples:

• Talking about something your ex did which you really disliked.
• Thinking, “I don’t want this mess to be here” when looking at clutter.
• Even saying, “I want a different job” … which may carry the energy of disliking your current occupation.

Banging the drum.

It’s time to bang a new drum. Use what you don’t want as contrast, absolutely … in order to clarify what you want … but don’t allow your focus to remain there. Instead, speak of what you *do* want.

So … “my ex did this” becomes …

• What did I learn?
• What can I appreciate?
• What do I look forward to in my next relationship?

“I don’t want this mess to be here” becomes …

• I love it when my place is clean.
• I appreciate organization.
• Look at this little spot of clear floor, ain’t it grand?

And “I want a different job” becomes …

• I’m so lucky to have a job.
• I so look forward to being an artist (or whatever you love!) someday soon.
• Or better yet: What I appreciate about my current job is …

Whenever you’re not feeling so good, ask yourself, “Am I banging the drum of what I do not want?” If so, turn it around. Make sure it’s real and make sure it has positive vibes attached … make sure what you say makes you feel good.

If your husband does something you don’t like, instead of constantly telling people that story, make a conscious effort to tell the story of what you do like about him … even if it’s one tiny thing. That thing will expand and grow and that thing will take on a life of its own, I promise you. You will attract more and more of THAT.

Whatever you speak of and think of, you will attract more of.

Why do I tell you to do this? It’s simple. I want you to feel good. Not just good but REALLY good. And I want you to attract all good things into your world.

I challenge you … for one week make sure you are banging the drum of what you want. I know, I know, somebody cut you off in traffic. Don’t tell that story. Tell the story of the thing that went “RIGHT” instead of the thing that went “WRONG.” I just know if there’s one, there’s also the other.

Think and dream about what you do want. Talk about what you do want often, leaving out the “not this” piece. Talk only of yes’s not no’s.

Do this for one week. Then let me know how you feel. Here’s to feeling better than you ever imagined!
