Message from My Seven Angels
Easily Driven to Distraction
I know that distractions are in my daily life constantly! We can be easily distracted from our goals and desires. When you have a desire you are working to manifest, watch those distractions. I know this has been a huge challenge for me. The Angels have been bringing this up with me more this week than ever!
It's so easy to be distracted. The electronic distractions are unbelievable. From TV, Home Phone, Cell Phone, Ipod's, pagers, to Computers with Instant Messengers and Email! It's any wonder we get anything tangible accomplished. These gadgets are to make our life easier and enrich our lives, not rip us away from authentic connections and human contact.
We also need to focus. Distractions can build up and take away our focus from our true intentions. The Angels want us to remember that yes, we must let go of what we desire once we have made the request, put forth the right amount of energy and have given gratitude. But we must know that putting forth the right amount of energy takes more than just a quick thought. If you think of a desire and then move on quickly to the next thought or distraction (from the phone, television, to a new thought or idea) you may not have given this enough focus and attention it requires to manifest.
Remember what Abraham-Hicks has said time and again: 17 seconds is all it takes! Just focus with all your energy (visualize, think and feel the positive desire you choose) as if it's happening right now in this very moment. It actually IS happening in this very moment and then your magic takes hold for the Universe to manifest. If you can bring your focus up to 68 seconds you've quadrupled your power. These 68 seconds are equivalent to working 2,000 man hours! I'd say 68 seconds are definitely worth whatever your desire is.
Move away from Electronic distractions. Commune with nature. When in nature you can more easily hear your soul's call. No longer ignoring through distraction. And you can hear the Angels more clearly. Everything falls away. Look up. A beautiful blue sky, stars and moon. An Ocean. A forest. Your life is waiting. Your soul is calling. Step outside and breathe.
When you feel overly distracted and nothing seems to be working the way you desire, take a moment. Go outside, get in touch with nature again. Breathe in fresh air. Ground yourself to the Earth and let go of those worries. Leave the cell phone and IPod at home this time. Listen to your intuition and feel your desire, one desire at a time. Focus on only one. And really feel it with all of your being. If you can't get outside, just get to a place where you are free of distraction and can take a few minutes for yourself for this practice. You will rejuvenate on all levels as you give yourself time to breathe and focus. As you do this your desires manifest that much more quickly, that much more smoothly and that much more powerfully.
Distractions happen to me often. Just when I think I've set my intention for a desire, I've gone through it too quickly in order to get to the next thing on my list. I am constantly being reminded to take time. There is no rush; especially when it comes to what we truly desire. But remember Time and Space is of no essence. They do not really exist. We can slow time and speed it up. We can be with someone who is on the other side of the world in mere moments if we choose. So relax, breathe and focus one intention at time. The Angels can more easily assist us as we take the time to be clear, listen and focus on our desires one beautiful feeling at a time.
“Whether we avoid something because it scares us or bores us, or because we think it will force a change we're not ready for, putting it off only creates obstacles for us. On the other hand, facing the task at hand, no matter how onerous, creates flow in our lives and allows us to grow.” ~ Daily OM
It's quite possible that you are distracted from really working on a specific desire because you are scared of it never coming, so in that sense you have already manifested it *not* coming. Maybe you are scared it *will* come so you don't take the time to really help it along to fruition. But in the end your desire is your desire. Fear is nothing till you give it power. If you give it power it will create the fearful event you don't want. Take the ego and fear out of the equation. Listen only to what makes you happiest and your higher self and Angels. All positive information flows more easily to you when you are in a neutral state of mind. Have a wish, but allowing it to either be there or not. It either is or it is not. It will either happen or it will not. It matters not, as long as you are always in your joy and happiness. Sharing love and bliss with those around you in whatever way you desire is all there is.
Remember, the Angels are with you and send you lots and lots of love every day!
