- 0:12come out here every day to record a podcast to teach
- 0:16distinctions, possibilities, new ways of thinking, and just bring
- 0:20some joy. Into the world, so welcome to
- 0:22the. Coop and let's start your day
- 0:24off in a fantastic way. Hey everybody good morning.
- 0:29I apologize for how bad my voice sounds today but I have got some
- 0:33pollen funk going on and it is wretched in my throat so I
- 0:38apologize not feel fine just got this weird head thing happening.
- 0:43Anyway, let's talk today about the meantime and what it does to
- 0:48the law of attraction. So if you don't know, what if
- 0:51you've never heard me use the term or you don't know the term,
- 0:53the meantime, it's what we say when we're, you know, between
- 0:58the things we're working towards.
- 1:00So I'm going to do this and in the meantime, I'm doing this.
- 1:04So if you're manifesting, if you're thinking about this in
- 1:07terms of creating your own business and you're in a job, a
- 1:11typical job that you go to every day, whether it's you go to your
- 1:15desk in your house or you go to an office, you're and you're
- 1:19working towards building your own business.
- 1:21And every day you're taking little tiny steps towards what
- 1:24that business would look like. You know, you're working on your
- 1:27logo, you're getting your marketing together, you're doing
- 1:29all these specific things to build up what that would be for
- 1:33you. And you're thinking about, I
- 1:36just want to be in that place. I just want to have my own
- 1:39business. And you're thinking about it,
- 1:42You're it, it really has to be worked on to focus on the right
- 1:47energy. Because often what happens in
- 1:50the meantime is we get frustrated and the meantime can
- 1:54be the one of the sweetest places to reside because you
- 1:58know you're working on something better.
- 2:01You know you're working on something that you really want.
- 2:03You know you're moving in the right direction.
- 2:06But when you get stuck and you have that internal conversation,
- 2:10that's like, I hate this place. I hate working for these people,
- 2:14I hate doing this job. I don't like what I do.
- 2:17I sit here every day and I go unnoticed.
- 2:20And you know, the stories could go on and on.
- 2:23We all know them because we've all had them.
- 2:24Every single one of them, us, including me, has had these
- 2:27thoughts. But when you're in the meantime,
- 2:31let's say you've got that dream on the other side, you know what
- 2:34you want to go to. So when I knew I wanted to build
- 2:37this business and write my books and do all the stuff that I do
- 2:41out on the farm, it was incredibly important to me to
- 2:44stay focused because I understood the meantime.
- 2:48So here's how it would go in my head.
- 2:51I can't stand this. I can't believe I have to fly
- 2:53again. I can't believe I have to go out
- 2:55here. I can't believe that we're going
- 2:56to do this again. It's like Groundhog Day, OK?
- 2:59Yes. And we're very fortunate that we
- 3:01have this Groundhog Day because this is the meantime.
- 3:04This is what we're doing. In the meantime, we are building
- 3:07our business. We are working towards the
- 3:10things that we love every single day.
- 3:12We take small actions to the things we love.
- 3:14So the meantime is one of the sweetest spots because it's
- 3:18allowing me to build the bridge safely.
- 3:20I can build the bridge safely. And then I stopped myself and I
- 3:24would pull myself out of that quagmire in my head of saying
- 3:28the same thing over and over again.
- 3:30That was completely not helping me to, to bitch and moan about
- 3:34something because it, it, it wasn't.
- 3:36I was just putting more pain on it.
- 3:38And then I'm attracting more pain in the process as I go.
- 3:41So as soon as I would condition myself to to change my meantime
- 3:46story, all of a sudden now things were accelerating because
- 3:51that's how law of attraction works.
- 3:52It's all about energy. So if I'm focused on giving the
- 3:56wrong message to myself, guess what happens?
- 3:59I get more of what I don't want because that's where my energy
- 4:03is going, because that's how the universe works.
- 4:05So we have to stop and we have to say, Nope, that's not
- 4:09allowed. I don't want to go off
- 4:12attracting what I want. I want to attract exactly what I
- 4:15want. Because as we know, we've all
- 4:18heard the phrase. It's in the Bible, it's
- 4:20everywhere, we've all heard it. Ask and you shall receive.
- 4:24But it's how you ask and what you ask for.
- 4:27And that's the part where am I most consistent with my asking.
- 4:31If I don't pay attention to where I'm most consistent with
- 4:34my asking, then I'm asking for things I truly don't want.
- 4:38Which sucks because we all do it, and we do it through our
- 4:41emotions. We walk around and we complain,
- 4:44we get sad, we start to get frustrated because it's not
- 4:47happening quick enough. Well, it's happening in the
- 4:50perfect amount of time because it's teaching you how to make
- 4:54sure you're controlling your emotions and that you're using
- 4:58them for your greater good. And it's giving you everything
- 5:01that you need in those moments. You just have to be curious
- 5:05enough to look at it. Convict have enough of a
- 5:08conviction to shift it. And no, this is what I have to
- 5:11do to make sure I can pull myself out of this.
- 5:14So when you start to have those feelings of frustration because
- 5:18you're not where you want to be, remember you are in the meantime
- 5:22and you are controlling how quickly that other part of what
- 5:27you're focused on is showing up by that internal dialogue that
- 5:30you consistently, consistently tap into.
- 5:35So remember, shift it, make sure you don't stay in it, work
- 5:39towards it and think about that meantime and how it affects the
- 5:42law of attraction. Alright my friends, I hope you
- 5:45have a blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
- 5:47Bye.
