Being myself and the law of attraction.

The past few months have been interesting months. I took on way too much and spread myself thin. I am working three part time jobs and taking on the Super Affiliate Challenge. Stayed up late (2 to 3am) and then get up the next day at 5:15am. I was getting tired and feeling grumpy.

I thought I can do it all. I am passionate so therefore it's going to happen. Wishful thinking. I am not a young pup any more. I need at least 8 hours or more of sleep. My way of being tired and grumpy attracted all sorts of signs. I started to notice a month ago when I visited my mom and sibblings. Friends and family told me I am looking old. My older sister even looks younger. YIPE!!! Ok... It's ok, I can handle it. I think.


Recently, my husband told me I am looking tired. Ok that did it. I thought I can handle it but obviously I couldn't. It all came bursting out at my husband.

What am I frustrated about anyway? Is it the criticism of me being tired which then portrays that I am getting old? What is the source of my frustration? Am I going through mid life crisis? I am turning 50 in May so that could be it, maybe?

I reflected back at my life when I was younger when everything seemed new and exciting. I had so much fun! Everything lined up perfectly: money, love, friends, abundance, etc. How was I being then vs how I am now? What was different?

So I came into a conclusion, the difference between now and when I was younger was that I was totally being myself with no condition or baggage. I was being fun and exciting. Everything I attracted was effortless.

As I grow older, I thought I grow wiser. I think more like I am thinking too much and working too hard to have fun. From my life experience, I allowed fear of failure or fear of the unknown to slow my progress. It prevents me from enjoying life. Enough! It's healthy to have fear but it is not healthy to have it run my life.

I would like to bring that effortless fun and exciting being back again. Drop the condition and the baggage. Clear my mind. Learn from the past but not dwell in it. I am open to the possibilities of exploring the unknown and living in abudance. I am what I attract.

Why? I want to be happy. I love the high flying feeling of being invincible and the stomach churning of excitement fluttering like butterflies. I love looking forward and waking up to a NEW DAY.


YES!!! I am standing in Abundance!

Thank you for reading my blog.

I look forward to hear from your thoughts and tips. Who are you being, what do you attract, and why?

Haroda,

Thank you for venting!

Writers and Authors gets very little sleep. But we are encouraged to get plenty of rest.

It's okay to keep that body active which helps keeps your physical

Young and youthful. Adequate Sleep is healthy for maintaining

Longevity and keeping the skin and mindset in tact.

I love your site and your niche is a very good one

Blessings!

Thank you, Louisa! I appreciate your comments. Rest is good. It does help me think clearly.

I am happy then!

Back in my younger days I was in a job that required 60 hours per week. I thought one time that if I worked 80 hours per week that I would be more productive. I tried it, and all that happened was that I got tired and frustrated. I was more productive working the 60 hours. It taught me a lesson. You have to have some kind of balance.

Thank you, Grant for your wise thoughts. Spending more hours does not mean better.

Girl, yu've said it all. I think this is a battle that we all go through and one that we are conditioned to by the world.

Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we begin to loose that "Be Yourself" attitude and it becomes something else allthogether and It's just not us or at least, not who we used to be.

It's all part of growing up I guess but we leave the important stuff behind.

All this to say,"i can relate". I see little children an their carefree attitude and I, like many, wonder when it left us.

We have to learn, all over again, to be who we were meant to be.

Moving Forward,
Wayne

I love your thoughts - so very true. Thank you for sharing. I guess we created our own reality when we were young. Then we can do it again as an adult, right?

Well, yes and no. My reply has gotten quite lengthy so I will Private Message it to you.

This is an interesting subject to me and I don't think it would be appropriate to put it here for everyone to see.

All the best and,

Moving Forward,
Wayne

Thank you, Wayne!!! =)

It is hard when, whilst we understand the law of attraction but are fighting against it or are out of synch so to speak. I have been there several times and it’s no fun.
The answer is to relax and trust. Easier said than done, I know. And trust me I have been in your position and it’s really really hard and frustrating. You will have to just work on it by checking in with your thoughts on a regular basis.
Hoping you find your inner trust and sense of fun again soon.
With Grace and Gratitude
Karen

Thank you, Karen. In and out, up and down, every which way... All in all, I am thankful that I am learning.

Nice wording -- my inner truth and sense of fun. I can taste it.

thank you!

Well, I do understand you... and I share your concerns... I am in almost the same situation (I am 10 years older than you - so you can feel happy). I also decided that I can do everything as previously... Sorry, not anymore... I have to slow down, and put priorities in place.

Thank you, Nadja for your thoughts. Yes, priorities in place is great. Learning to pace myself is good just like running a marathon.

I think we all have a feeling what pace is the most suitable for us... I enjoy working, I love what I am doing but I have to keep my eye on my health

I love your post, to be very very quick, I am older than you, I would say it is like the abdominal muscles. When you are young you have them effortlessly, after you have to work double to maintain them at the same level. (lol)

too true!!! It reminds me of the rubber band. The more you use the stretchier it gets and you have to doubly reinforce it each time. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

No matter how positive you are about things I just don't see a few hours of sleep a night allowing you to focus and attract those things you want. So, I hope you are able to adjust your schedule and get some needed rest!!

You are too right! I am going to bed earlier now and get more rest, at least 8 hours. I feel so much better and more revitalized!

It’s all within your control I think haroda! If you love life, you must take time for yourself and enjoy some of it.

You mention LOA, some inspiration from that perhaps and some mediation - schedule some time for yourself.

I didn’t know anything about relaxing and stress and then I had a stroke at 47, a small stroke but never the less, it made me think and take time for myself.

Excellent Post!

Take care

Wayne

Thank you Wayne! Totally right. Meditation is very helpful to clear my mind. I love time for myself. It's so much needed for sure. Thank you for your thoughtful comments.

I am different. I struggle with the changes that I provided for myself and kids when I was younger but now that I'm on SSDI that doesn't cut it. I get between $600-$1000 a month (depends on what the government decides to pay) and that's not enough to support a person. I have wonderful children would are willing to help me out but accepting help is not something I feel comfortable with.
Sorry to dump this on you...rant over.

Tried and true

Elaine

I hear you Elaine. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I would feel the same. I love the independent for not relying on anybody else.

It is also easier to give than to receive. However, don't forget it's ok to receive sometimes.

I hope you are doing well at WA. Please let me know if I can help you with anything. We can support each other and build our finance to a better place. Looking forward to it.

Awesome post! I totally get it. In ministry one thing I found consistent with most folks is that they were trying to "be somebody", but had little to no clue who they actually were. Me? I have no idea how to be anyone but fully me! ...that could be part of the reason most folks don't stay around long ;) But no matter what, I still have that adorable, self-less, silly little, at times irritating but humorous, blonde, that is honest and relentless in the pursuit of all that my Maker has for me! :D Sweetie, thanx so much for sharing this! oxoxo

Thank you for sharing your love!!! I love your adorable, self-less, silly little, at times irritating but humorous, blonde!! Reading your comments put a huge smile on my face. Made my day.
