I want to talk with you today about this idea that Your Desires Are Making Their Way To You.
Let’s lay the foundation; you are an extension of the divine source energy. You can use whatever langue feels good to you; Divinity, God, Source, or an unnamed energy that set it all into motion. This energy, flows through every cell of your being. Your divinity set your humanity into motion to create, to expand and experience life. This gift of life unfolds before you, thought-by-thought and moment-by-moment.
This makes you a creator by nature you. You are the creator of your reality, the author of your story and the main character that gets to experience it all. Your desire is a huge part of the creation process. Your desires set into motion feelings and feelings set into motion desire. When you are in alignment with your essential truth and the source within you, these feelings become daydreams and you can start to feel as if what you desire is there even before it shows up. All of the energy and momentum created by those thoughts and feelings meet with source energy and offer you inspired thought. That inspired thought leads to inspired action until the desire becomes reality. You are designed to receive the very thing you desire.
The creation process and desire aren’t just about things. Sure you can desire something like a new car, a partner, or a job. As you hold those feeling of having them and without focusing on what is, but rather focusing on what it is to have them, you send a call out to the very thing that you desire and they make their way to you. Holding that energy of having them is like a beacon so that they can find you. But it’s not just about things. You can desire feeling good, having more joy, feeling better in your mind and body, or even how you want to experience your day. You can desire anything, and as long as you give yourself space to really feel what the desire is calling for, then you have created a path for the desire to make it’s way to you.
It is designed to be thrilling, and fun and feel like an adventure. But sometimes we forget, or its been trained out of our thinking. We get convinced to focus on what is rather then what is possible. When what is, is less then what you desire you can catch yourself in a painful loop, living the illusion of separation. But it is in fact an illusion, a thought of fear focused on, for way too long.
Sometimes the whispers of desire, gets all balled up with what is and it leaves your life feeling like a mess. Even worse we see someone else experiencing our desire and rather then focusing on the fact that it’s possible, and in that moment you are seeing the magic of it happen, even if it isn’t for you; you end up focusing on the idea that because someone else has it, it somehow means you can’t or won’t. And there you are once again caught in the illusion of separation. When you do that your desire can’t find you because you starting feeling and creating something else it’s place.
If you have forgotten your truth, or if you have found yourself feeling separated from your desires, don’t worry; there is power and opportunity in every moment of your story.
Let’s see if we can shift your focus back to what is possible.
Let’s call out a few thoughts that might be holding your focus if you have been feeling jealous of others or feel like the things you want are off limits to you:
- Everyone else seems to get what I want and it feels off limits to me.
- I am jealous of what other people have: kids, house, job, relationship, lifestyle, I want it too.
- My life doesn’t feel the way I want it to feel.
- If I don’t have it now, I probably wont ever have it.
- If they already have it I guess I can’t or won’t ever have it.
None of these thoughts feel good when you think them. It will never feel good to resist or push against your truth.
It’s important to understand that thoughts like these are separate from who you are.
You may think them, and they may feel very real to you in the moment, but they don’t actually define you and they are not essential to who you are. Thoughts like these try to limit your truth and make you feel smaller and less then how you were designed to feel and be in your life. It is for this reason I like to call them out as limiting beliefs.
Beliefs are a repetitive pattern of thinking that creates focus and momentum that leads you forward to wherever it is you find yourself in life.
There are beliefs aligned with your truth that feel supportive and fortifying as you think them. When you focus on them they feel really good and bring with them positive energy that washes over you.
And there are beliefs like the ones we just mentioned that put limits on your truth and feel negative and restrictive as you think them. They can send you into an emotional tailspin because they are plugged into the energy of fear rather then your essential truth of love.
There are many ways to pick up a limiting belief. People who are limited in their own beliefs may have handed them down to you. They try to convince you of what your reality should be according to their limitation, and often in our own uncertainty we take it really believe it to be true.
It can also happen when a situation comes into your life with a lot of negative energy behind it. It is super easy to adopt limiting beliefs when you find yourself in a repetitive experience that is negative.
No matter how you pick up the limiting beliefs they always contradict your essential truth, and they never feel good as you think them.
So what if you are tired of thinking thoughts that feel bad and you want to think thoughts that feel better? It is totally within your power. That’s the great thing about beliefs; because they are simply thoughts that you think over and over again, you absolutely you have the power to change them.
I like to call this process re-patterning. For me a process always makes me feel like I have actions that I can take in the right direction, and that feels super powerful. Now there are endless ways of going about re-patterning, but the important thing to remember is it happens one thought at a time.
Your first job is notice the negative thought that is causing you discomfort. They are the indicators that you are out of alignment with your truth. Call it out so that it can no longer run on repeat in the background of your thinking.
As you bring your conscious awareness to the thought and you can see that it is not aligned with your truth, your next job is to stop believe what it’s telling you. When you do this it slows down the momentum, energy, and emotion that it has been carrying with it. After all, you were never meant to believe it but use it to feel your way back to your truth.
Once you have the limiting belief isolated and you can see it for what it is, then you start to make room for a new idea to emerge. This is where you redirect your thought and feel your way back to your truth.
Let’s say you have a thought that tells you that everyone else seems to get what you want and it feels off limits to you. What if you take the limitation off those beliefs? What would you have then? You might find a thought that says something like, “What I want isn’t off limits to me.”
What if you then took even more of the limiting language out of the thought? You might find something like, “I can have what I want.” Then go deeper into your truth with it and you might find something like, My desires are making their way to me.
That might remind you that you are a creator my nature and that you are creating your own reality moment my moment and thought by thought. As you keep turning your focus inward to your truth you may notices the limiting beliefs drift into the distance allowing those thought that feel better to flood in. I can choose what I focus on… When I see someone else with what I want, that means its possible and closer then I think!
Keep those thoughts going and build on them.
Really let yourself daydream about it. Feel yourself having experiencing the desire now.
Put your mind and energy there as often as possible.
When you activate thought like these, it helps you create a deeper language for your desire and your truth. It helps you keep your focus on what you want and how good it feels.
This is why it’s so valuable not to react, repress, or rebel from the limiting beliefs, but rather use them as the indicators they were designed to be. When you stop taking direction from them and get curious instead, you allow them to help you create language for your truth as they help you create language for where you want to go. From this place you will find yourself having a very different kind of experience.
So let’s call out some new patterns of thinking aligned with your truth.
- My desires are making their way to me.
- I am a creator by nature and I create my own reality, thought by thought and moment my moment.
- I can choose to focus on what is possible.
- I am designed to receive the very thing I desire.
- When I see someone else with what I want, that means its closer than I think.
- When I focus and daydream about my desire being fully realized, I create a path for it to find me.
Thoughts like these feel so much better as you think them, and there is a beautiful sense of freedom that comes with your truth. So get curious about your thoughts and feeling. Take a second or third look to make sure they are the ones you really want to be thinking and feeling. And remember it all changes one thought at time!
I want to focus on some things that will help you as you re-pattern your thoughts.
Intention setting has two very powerful jobs in your life. One job is to consciously claim what it is you want. The second job is to act as a check-in to your point of reference. That way when something coming into your life you can see if it is in alignment with your intention. If it is, wonderful, and if it is not you can kick that sucker to the curb.
I am going to offer you one but feel free to have fun and come up with one of your own. I would start your day with it, and then return to it as many times as you need to. Put it somewhere in your bathroom so you see it first thing in the morning. Or put it on your nightstand, in your car or by your coffee pot.
Here is one for your to try out.
“My intention is to watch my thoughts with compassion and to reach for thoughts throughout my day the feel good to me. My intention is to feel good, and I will use my thought to help me get there.”
Another thing that really helps as you re-pattern your thoughts is giving yourself permission.
Permission is a huge thing that often gets overlooked. Self-permission can feel like opening a door that was once closed to you because it eases up on the resistance. It helps you claim the power to do or not do what your heart really wants.
So we are going to put some conscious awareness to self-permission because you are 100% worth it! Like the intention I will start you off, but you can really run free with this and create endless space for yourself.
“I give myself permission to believe that what I want is making its way into my life. When I see others with what I want, I give myself permission to use that as a celebration that what I want is getting closer to me.”
It feels pretty good right?
Remember Re-patterning is all about changing your focus to support the new patterns of thinking that are aligned with your truth. It all happens one thought at a time. So watch those thoughts as they come in and choose the ones that feel better. These micro adjustments give you back your power.
An additional trick that I love to help build up those new patterns of thinking, is to flood your mind with outside sources that are similar to your new thoughts. An idle mind will always tend to go back to what it knows best. So keep it moving down those new trains of thought with things like these:
- Listen to podcasts of people who are focused where you want to go while you are driving, running errands, exercising, or while you are doing things around the house.
- Watch videos of people who inspire you to deepen into those new patterns of thinking or are living them for you to see play out, while you are getting ready or are cooking.
- Watch a movie that reinforces your new pattern of thinking and can help you see the positive truths play out before you.
- Write those truths out as many times as you can and then go back and reread them often! When you write things down it helps your brain prioritize what you want it to focus and act on. Reading activates the mind in a similar way but sets your imagination into action at the same time. So prioritize and set your imagination into action on those truths!
- Tell an inner circle friend that you trust what you are working to re-pattern so that you have someone to help you get excited and they can celebrate with you as all the new experiences that match your newly activated truth come into your life.
