Reason 5: You Don’t Actually Believe The Universe Will Conspire In Your Favor
Of course, you can’t actually let go if you don’t believe the universe has your back. And isn’t that exactly what we are saying when we tell the universe, move out of the way, I’ll get it done, I’ll find the right person, I’ll get the money, I’ll go it my way. Sometimes we’re more subtle. We just put our foot down, we establish a timeline, we figure out the “how” and then expect the universe to conspire in the specific way we laid it out.
But before you go down that route, think about it: what has your role been in the most magnificent times of your life or the big shifts in your life when you found your lover, became a parent, got the job, found the clients, the funding, or otherwise the solution when you couldn’t see one. You might think it was all you (or perhaps it’s obvious it wasn’t you at all), but let’s stick with the parent thing because I believe that’s one of the most miraculous things we do as a species. Sure, you did the thing and maybe carried the baby, but who made the heart, who designed each strand of hair, who drew the lungs, who pumped the blood, who coordinated the food to the fetus? Even if you’re the smartest person in the world, you couldn’t figure this out on your own. You cannot create a baby because you don’t know how life works. Neither do doctors or scientists.
I wrote this whole blog article in one go, and I had to pause here. I wasn’t sure how to phrase this part. I closed my laptop. I put on a Abraham Hicks video on YouTube, and of course in the message Abraham was explaining how we don’t know how electricity works. No one really does. We’ve learned to use it to our advantage and to create light, but we don’t know how things work. Especially for most of us, we just know how to switch the light.
So when we try to figure things out on our own, we get overwhelmed, we don’t know how it can all come together or where the money is going to come from or where the satisfying career is going to be or how all of your interests can be synchronised in your life’s purpose.
If you think you have to figure it all out, you will be perpetually overwhelmed because just like you can’t actually make a baby without the use of the natural energy of life, you can’t actually attract the things you want. You can only vibrate higher and trust that the universe will do its thing. You must know that life will respond accordingly. That life is good.
Look around. How many trees are growing right now? How is the sun in perfect proximity to the earth that we don’t burn or freeze? How do the seasons work, really? How is it that you’re still alive right now? How is it that your heart beats without you trying? How is it that you’ve been breathing and flowing blood, and managing hormone levels, and growing hair and nails, and rejuvenating your skin, and and and…
You really are so much more out of control of your life than you usually admit, so just give it up. Recognize that life is happening for you, and the only time you’re overwhelmed, stressed, or afraid is when you think you have to figure it all out.
The law of attraction is always on and the cooperative components involved like people, things, timing, and ideas are being drawn to you based on your practiced vibration – wanted or unwanted.
There is also no need to pray, beg, or request. The universe has heard your requests vibrationally and understands them fully, more so than you understand them actually. That’s because the universe has been collecting your desires every time you radiated the unwanted side of a subject. It understood and began to conspire for you. But you cannot receive it until you stop beating the drum of the things that you don’t have or how things aren’t working out.
A tip for here for those of us who are a bit more cynical, who were taught that no one is looking after you, who aren’t quite sure of their beliefs on a higher power. I have two suggestions:
- Consider the opposite reality
- Ask for proof / Test the universe
Considering the opposite is saying, fine you don’t believe we live in a friendly universe or at minimum a fair universe that simply reflects to you what you are (radiating). Maybe we’re all potentially a day away from a meteor hitting us, your heart might stop beating tonight, and you must struggle your way to success. How does that sound?
I had to come to terms with this myself. I asked myself, what if all of this is not true. What if there is no law of attraction? Then what? Well, I couldn’t really find a better reality for myself. I also liked the feeling of reaching for joy, taking ownership of my emotional state, and taking responsibility for the experience that was unfolding in my life. I’m so much happier now so I believe in this because it works for me and I find it quite fair and liberating.
Now, you must decide for yourself if it works for you.
Secondly, test the heck out of it. Say alright, I’ll play your stupid game. I’ll ignore all the annoying people, I’ll take full responsibility, I’ll pretend my spouse is perfect and that I’m the one bringing the worst out in him/her. I’ll just play and find things that seem interesting. I’ll give up my struggle for maybe 30 days or maybe 3 days. Then, just see what happens. See if that’s a way you want to live. See if things don’t unfold for you on their own.
I struggle with letting go of the struggle still today. But not a day goes by when the universe doesn’t reward me when I do. I’ll get an email about a new client, I’ll get a really cool opportunity, I’ll have one of the most exciting ideas I’ve had in a while, or I’ll actually be super productive, but in a fun way. I can’t explain it really, but I do suggest you just test it.
But really test it, don’t do it to see if something unfolds. That’s not giving up your struggle and effort: Be honest with yourself. Are you willing to stop all this action and effort and just flow for a while for no reason at all, but to feel your breath, move your body, contemplate, or just rest?
