Honesty and the Creative Process
Being honest with ourselves is vital to effective conscious creation. If we are to most effectively create fulfilling lives for ourselves, then it would make sense to first of all acknowledge what constitutes to a 'fulfilling life' for us. When we do so, then we may develop focussed intentions which bring clear results. But why is this so? Why exactly are clear intentions suitable for clear results?
Because intentions affect the flow of our energy, and when we are intending two contradictory things at the same time we get contradictory results. Some of our energy is magnetic with one thing, while other portions of it are with the other. If you wanted to enjoy the countryside on a sunny day, and half of you wanted to walk, while the other half wanted to ride the bicycle, then you would experience indecision and procrastination. Eventually, you would either not enjoy the countryside (if both intentions are a match) or use one of the two options (if one intention is stronger than the other).
It is the same with our lives. To intend to experience what we don't really want in our lives just because we think hat it's more 'realistic' doesn't necessarily suit us. There can be times when it makes sense to go for stepping stones, but if we genuinely perceive it to be possible for us to have what we really want in our lives, then we would probably do well to listen to that dream of ours. Because when we really want something, then we generate strong feelings regarding it, and then manifestations tend to be charged with a lot more power.
In the Inspirational Quotes section, I cite one quotation which states “Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive”.
This is quite appropriate not only in terms of living a fulfilled life, but also from a conscious creation viewpoint. The more something makes us feel as though we come alive when we think of it, the easier it is to summon the energy for the creation of it in our experience. What kind of lifestyle, just purely by visualizing it, makes you come alive? That's the one which tends to be easiest to create in our physical experience. Isn't that wonderful? That lifestyle which genuinely makes you feel great is the one which tends to be easiest to manifest. In the light of that knowledge, you may, like me, think that the universe wants to support us in our experiencing fulfilment and happiness.
