Are you sure you want to complain about that?

Did you know that complaining about something holds within it the intention of that very thing continuing? How could it not? The focus is on the thing you are complaining about. The emotional energy of complaining can range anywhere from mildly irritated to enraged. And the words usually stream forth for a while, especially if you've got a sympathetic ear listening to you. All the ingredients of manifestation. Oops!

Look, we're all human. We all get snagged by the ego's desire to blame others for the way we feel. But once we begin to work with metaphysical principles, we can't do that with impunity any longer. We know what we know. and no matter how delicious complaining and blaming may feel to the ego, we're much better off making a choice to identify and release what we're feeling another way, and then focus on the desired outcome, as if it's ALREADY happened.

Quantum physics tells us the the Universe listens to us, reads our vibration, and just like that genie in the fairy tale about Aladdin says, "Your wish is my command". So how about making a commitment to catching yourself in the act of complaining, and maybe even make an agreement with someone close to us, to remind each other to shift the focus.

We consciously know that we don't want more of what we don't want; but our unconscious beliefs trump what we consciously desire and thus, the ego sneaks in the complaint factor. All you have to do is recognize it and shift your focus. And all you'll be giving up is, let's see.....self-pity, feeling victimized, the understanding and agreement about how awful things are from whoever will listen to your complaints.....and oh yes, manifesting more and more and more of exactly what you're complaining about. Are you ready to give all that up for the opportunity to line yourself up more effectively with what you really really want.....with your desired outcome....even about, especially about the situation you're complaining about? I'm guessing that you are.

So catch yourself every time the complaining starts and turn the dial in your mind, and change the channel of your thoughts and feelings. Choose a different program, and get some thoughts going that make you feel a whole lot better. Then you'll see how marvelously you can participate in a friendly, abundant Universe that wants you to be happy! Empower yourself to be grateful and appreciative and see how things around you change, even perhaps that thing you were just about to complain about.

Joy and Peace,
Jan
