Trust Your Inner Guidance
71
The Law of Attraction helps you get really good at trusting your inner intuition, which we've said is your Emotional Spectrum, or Emotional Guidance System, which is giving you guidance in every single moment by the way you FEEL.. The Law of Attraction helps you follow that inner guidance and prompts you to do things when you are inspired. I have created my life in such a way that I rarely do things I don't want to do anymore and I've been able to create a career around one of the hobbies I love, training and riding Andalusian horses and singing.
I've ridden horses since I was little; I used to travel around the United States doing shows and charity fundraisers. Now I plan big events for corporations and tour groups that come to San Antonio. I do my horse show for these groups, which basically means I make the horses dance, I sing on horseback and I get paid to do it! I also do group Law of Attraction training using the horses to help people release their fears and doubts and TRUST MORE. It's wonderful to see people who have never even seen a horse in real life, use their inner intuition and intention when interacting with these horses, who are pure positive energy. And a horse trusts their inner guidance and they doesn't have those pesky negative tapes playing in their heads so there's a lot we can learn from them.
Some of my family members used to tell me to "get a real job!" and sort of rolled their eyes when I talked about doing what I love, but now I am living my passion while some of them are in situations they aren't even happy with. This is an example of Contrast that can help you desire more. I knew I wanted to do something I loved, even if there wasn't really anyone out there doing it. Now I'm really successful at it, I've had clients such as Matt Damon, Billy Bob Thornton, Mark Victor Hansen and the late James Michener. I want to be inspired, I want to be happy and I have used the Law of Attraction to create that in my life. The Law of Attraction is the best business plan out there! It can help ANYONE who uses it create a happier, more inspired, more fulfilled life. But we have to TRUST it! If I had listened to the fear and doubt of those well-meaning but fearful family members, I wouldn't be doing something I love and making a great living at it.
One moment of trust creates another, and another moment of trust, then a sort of chain is created. And when you begin, it can be natural to hesitate when you are stepping out of your comfort zone. I remember when my sister Kerry and I were visiting Peru. We saw some people hang gliding off of these huge cliffs and gliding over the Pacific Ocean. Well, I'm really scared of heights. I don't even like to be on a ladder, but one of the things we always try to do when traveling together is to do things we wouldn't normally do, to take risks and get outside of what is normal for both of us.
So I looked at her and said, "If I have enough money in my pocket to take a hang gliding ride, do you want to do it?" I still cannot believe I said that! And while I was reaching for the money in my pocket, I remember thinking, "I hope I don't have enough money!" But, I did. So we paid to ride tandem with these people on the hang gliders. And when I stepped off the cliff, because that's what you have to do, you actually have to walk off a cliff and the air comes up underneath the wings of the hang glider and lifts you up. Well, when I stepped off the cliff, I remember I almost passed out from the fear. And I thought, "What the heck am I doing? They probably don't even have a license to do this!" But I decided to try to relax and trust, and it was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had! For the last 15 minutes of the ride, I just held my arms outstretched and imagined I was a bird and a feeling of utter calm and peace surrounded me. It was simply amazing! I love the fact that I HAD TO TRUST ENOUGH TO PHYSICALLY STEP OFF A HUGE CLIFF. What a perfect visual for what we do when we TRUST and let go.
How many times have we given up wonderful experiences and opportunities because of our doubts and fears? Even when you were inspired to grab those experiences and opportunities, sometimes you let the fear and doubt take over and you decided not to take the opportunities and experiences life put in your path. Like talking to a certain someone, taking a lower paying job that you would have loved more (which probably would have led to something more-because when you do what you love, the abundance follows), not telling someone you love them, not doing something you've always dreamed of that's "out of your comfort zone"? We've all done it, but by using the Law of Attraction, there is a way of turning the momentum around, of helping the Universe bring us the perfect people, wonderful opportunities and experiences. We just have to TRUST the Universe and have our eyes open to what it's bringing us.
If you can trust while doubt is there, it means that you pay more attention to trust and less attention to doubt. You are indifferent to doubt, you distract yourself from the doubt. Your whole attention is on trust. Then a day comes when the doubt has disappeared, because if you don't give attention to the doubt, it shrinks-the focus of your attention is like food. If you don't give attention to it, the doubt can't continue to have a hold of you." This is a perfect way of thinking about it because when you give something the focus of your attention, you are "feeding it" so it gets larger and larger, and you have the choice of making negative things the focus of your attention, like fear or doubt or giving positive things the focus of your attention, like the things you DO want and Trusting that the Universe will unfold the people, opportunities, doorways and events for those things to happen.
Sometimes when people begin to learn and apply the Law of Attraction, they feel overwhelmed and they feel that everything has to be perfect, and they think, "This is more difficult than I thought"! Instead of saying that learning about the Law of Attraction is difficult, that changing the way you think and feel is difficult, say things like, "I'm aware of what my words, thoughts and feelings are creating and I'm learning to use them to create what I want. And I'm becoming clearer on what I want to create! And, most importantly, it isn't even MY JOB to do the HOWS-it-going-to-happen, that's the Universe's job - to figure out the HOW."
So Just relax, know you are heading in the right direction, look for evidence of what you want happening and celebrate all the evidence that you DO see, appreciate the things you DO already have and TRUST. If you find opportunities that are coming your way, it might be for a reason, they might be the links in the chain to bring you closer to what you DO want. So stop and think before you let fear make you say, "No."
Decide to TRUST a little bit more and doubt a little bit less, feed the trust with your focus of attention and see what wonderful experiences and opportunities you can have! One of these days, you'll get a big "Aha!" moment and the message of the Law of Attraction will be so much easier than you ever imagined. Life will become about living each moment, having less fear and making a choice in each and every moment, in each now, now, now, now and now to feel better and have more fun!

Hi Marisuwrites,
Thanks for your kind words! I think back to that day often when I need to find the courage to do something even now.
The really funny part I didn't write about though. I didn't know how it worked...
I thought you just let your body go limp and the wind just hoisted you up. I didn't realize you had to walk off the cliff. So when the guide told me, "Let's go", I went limp and he ended up dragging me several feet across the floor, I felt pretty silly...
I hope you take a leap of faith and walk off your cliffs to fly and laugh too!
Love,
MAritza
This is a great testimonial to trusting your intuition...congrats on your success. Although planning and executing on your ideas may seem daunting at times, it's important to trust the actual process itself...half the fun is getting there after all...regards, TJHR

you truly took "a leap of faith." wow such courage! I am with you on trusting our inner voice and inclinations...we make our dreams or defeat them...
Looking back, I defeated myself many times. Great read - thanks for the awakening and as much as I'd love to leap off that cliff...I don't think I'm there yet!
You did great and I bet you still walk tall from that confidence! I truly believe that one day, we will examine our life, and will see many missed opportunities to "fly."
thank you for this reminder to feel and act on our "attractions."
