I'm glad you brought that up because I've been thinking about this a lot recently.

Because one thing I noticed is that a lot of times with people that are really adamant about creating their own reality, the law of attraction, manifestation, one thing I notice is that a lot of times the people that are really into this kind of work also went through a lot of trauma earlier in life.

They may have had a spiritual awakening, be into understanding that we're spiritual beings of intemperate human experiences.

But I can't ignore the fact that even within myself of me being called to it, especially years ago, there was a certain part of me that wanted to feel more like I was in control.

There was a part of me that could feel like this is what I want to create.

I feel like I'm in control.

I experience it.

And then it's like I feel safety.

So it's almost like trying to create a sense of safety through my manifestations, because if anything unknown were to happen, that's the scary stuff, right?

And what if what you could actually experience in your life was so much better than what you can even imagine, but we block it because we're like, no, I want my manifestations.

It's on my vision board.

I've been thinking about it.

I've been feeling it.

And the way that I look at this is kind of simple in the stage that it's basically about are you attached to outcome or are you present to the moment and enjoying the process?

If you follow your excitement and you're in the vibration of your passion, loving what you do, what you are in the vibration of is in the vibration of being.

You're in the vibration of embodiment.

You are being this version of you because it's who you choose to be, not of what the result will get you.

And what a lot of people do with the law of attraction is they're focusing on what they want and they're trying to, in a way, control reality because then they can feel safe and because the future moment that they get to is going to be better than this moment right now.

And what happens a lot is people end up robbing themselves of the joy in the present moment and just following the passion because they're trying to get somewhere else that's going to be better.

So the way that I work with this is I follow the thread of excitement, knowing that it's not my job to control how things happen.
