Lesson 304: When You Understand How to Attract...

When you understand how to “attract”, creating your earth life is simple. You simply request what you’d like, you put your attention there—and this thing arrives. And yet, this is just one way to live. If you were to choose to not consciously “attract,” you would attract anyway.
— Sara Wiseman

Today we are to think about how effective we are at “attracting”. Do you find great success in presenting your intention and manifesting what you want? Do you find that it fails and you don’t attract much of anything at all? What if you were to consider that the reason why things may not always manifest have nothing to do with you at all?

When I read over the paragraph above, I was agreeing and also disagreeing. I find that some things you can manifest into your life no problem – new friends, new experiences, some direction in life for instance. Other times I have found that I have had difficulty attracting things into my life – some good luck when things are low and a new romantic partner are some of my examples. I think you can attract things into your life without even trying. You can just go about your day, sometimes not even thinking and you’re just daydreaming all day, and things can fall into place. I think when I try too hard, things don’t come to me. I have never thought about it not having anything to do with me. Maybe it simply just needs to be divine timing. If I was being selfish, I wish there was someone telling me that it had nothing to do with me, then I would have some confirmation on it.

The biggest thing I haven’t been able to attract is a partner for life. People say it happens when you least expect it, but it’s been years of sometimes putting in effort and other times, just leaving it up to the Universe, and still nothing…. I don’t know if it’s the climate of social media and the applications that make casual sex a more common thing than ever before, but I just don’t know where to find a genuine person who wants a long-term relationship.  I would love to meet someone just out and about in my every day situations, but even that hasn’t worked. I am not sure what more I can do on this one. If I try, it hasn’t fallen into place. If I don’t try, it hasn’t fallen into place. It’s one of those things that I just may have to keep waiting. It’d be nice to know for how long though. Haha!

I think it may have something to do with just surrendering yourself to the Universe and let things happen? I’m not sure. I find some instances of manifesting so easy, where as the really important things aren’t so much. Maybe it’s all just a test? Maybe I just got to be me and anything I want in my life will appear in their own time. Maybe it’s just a lesson in patience.
