Importance of Alignment


I’m certain that everyone reading this has in some way or another heard of The Law of Attraction. The Law of Attraction says that our thoughts (both conscious and unconscious) dictate the reality of our lives. In essence, if you really want something and truly believe it’s possible, then you’ll create the reality of it in your life. However, what people don’t realize is that by putting a lot of attention or thought into something you DON’T want means that you’ll also attract that in your life.

All thoughts create a feeling. All feeling is what creates the energy that turns into the “magnet” to which we attract into our lives. Therefore, for manifestation purposes it’s very important to be aware of our thoughts, both positive and negative.

Fear and worry are very powerful feelings. If you allow your thoughts of fear and worry to create an uneasy emotion within us, then that is exactly what you’ll draw into your life. Un-Ease. When you have un-ease within then you are not aligning yourself with the positive things you wish to attract. For instance, say you are manifesting a new car into your life. You send out the thoughts and feelings of wanting the new vehicle. However, soon you start to worry that, ok, what if I get a new car then I get laid off tomorrow and can’t pay for it? Worrying about the “what if’s” in this case just mis-aligned you with your intention. It’s as though you’ve sent a mixed message to the Universe and now the Universe has not idea if in fact you truly want the intention you sent out there.

Aligning yourself prefectly with your intentions is the key to manifestation. By being aware of your thoughts you can indeed master this alignment process. It’s a matter of paying attention to where your thoughts flow, and the feelings those thoughts create within you. When you’re feeling upset or un-easy inside try to trace to what thoughts you have going on that create this un-ease. Once you’re able to pinpoint those thoughts, then make a conscious effort to change or turn around those thoughts.

One way of working with this is before you truly set your intention, imagine yourself living it first. Take a short trip into your mind and imagine as if you already have what it is you’re manifesting into your life. Take special note during your trip as to how having what you want makes you feel. If you feel any type of mixed emotions, fear or second thoughts into what you’re manifesting, then you need to adjust what it is you’re wanting to attract. Keep doing this until the object of your desire creates only positive feelings.

Let’s say you set your intentions on a brand new Mercedes-Benz SLR Roadster with a sticker price of $495,000.00. Imagine yourself owning it. Would you be worry free and happy with this? Would you be worried everytime you drove it that you’d get a scratch or a ding or would the thought of that car payment every month give you that small sick feeling in the pit of your stomach? These emotions are exactly what will tell the Universe NO, I don’t really want this in my life. Perhaps you should downgrade your desire a bit to something that is in the range of $30,000.00 then. Try that on for size and see how it feels. If that brings feelings of ease within, then you are learning to align yourself with your intention. Thus giving the Universe a crisp, clear signal of exactly what you want. I know this is an exagerated example, but you get my point of placing yourself into the scenerio before you begin your manifestation.


Now that you’ve learned to watch your thoughts and pay attention to the emotions they create you can align yourself with only those thoughts that bring positive balance and ease within. If it takes a few times tweaking or changing those intentions, that’s fine too. The key is to create the alignment by having only positive feelings attached to what it is you’re manifesting. Once you have that total alignment, hold on tight, cause the Universe has a way of working very quickly!
Happy Manifesting!
