Summer of Change, Extra #5: Don't plan the how


Today’s extra is all about the “how”.

So, you have a dream, a goal, and you’ve read and studied from several gurus and you know you are on the right path. You have visualized the attained goal and you're there enjoying it.

But then, your mind whispers, “how’s it gonna happen?”

You don’t mean to think about it, but you can’t quite help it. You imagine how that goal may be achieved. And that isn’t a bad thing. If you do it once.

The problem is, once you start to concentrate on the how, you not only can’t NOT concentrate on it, you began to fill in the details until you’ve mapped out the how in your head. Bad move.

By mapping out the how, by concentrating on it, you have just taken from the universe its plan. You’ve taken control – whether or not you intended to – and have basically said “This is how I see it happening”.

Which has ground everything to a halt.

Now, it may happen like that, or it may not. The universe has ways in which we know not. Better ways. Quicker ways. The main thing you do by concentrating on the how? Is slow down the manifestation of your dream.

So next time you find yourself thinking “I wonder how it will happen”, stop there. Imagine the end result and just feel the joy in being there. Tell the universe/god/I AM/all that is’ness that you are leaving the how up to it, for you know it can bring it about in a more amazing way than you could ever devise.

Believe me. Stay away from the how. ;)
