Abraham-Hicks & The Lottery

Monday, April 26th, 2010

In the last post, I referenced an Abraham-Hicks video about the law of attraction and the lottery.  If you haven’t read that post, do.  It was a gargantuan AHA for me, and it might be for you too.

In case you’re curious about the video, here it is.  Part two of the same conversation is below it:

When They Pat Your Head, Wag Your Tail

Monday, April 19th, 2010

There’s petting a dog … and then there’s petting a dog.

If people are dismissing dogs, they give them a half-hearted pat on the head.  That kind of pat means, “Nice doggy [not really].  Now go away.”

People who really mean it when they pet dogs don’t just pat a dog on the head.  They rub a dog’s shoulders or belly or butt, scratch the ears or neck or chest.  Sincere petting is usually accompanied by kisses or happy talk too.  It’s genuine.

We humans don’t go around patting each other on the head or rubbing each others bellies (although the world would probably be a better place if we did).  BUT many people do the equivalent of the insincere head pat, and we’ve all been on the receiving end of it.

Tim, as I’ve said in previous posts, feels like a lottery winner.  His identity is Tim, The Multi-million Dollar Jackpot Winner.  He’s been moving toward this identity for some time.  He started with knowing he was going to win one day.  He moved on to thinking more and more about what it would be like to win.  And within the last few months, he’s become that winner, within.  He feels like he’s won.  He’s happy, secure, and relaxed.

Because he’s so comfortable in his identity, he often casually discusses the lottery with friends.  Some of our friends are matter of fact in their acceptance of his reality.  They know that we’ll soon have millions because Tim already has them on a vibrational level.

Others don’t see it that way.  Tim gets a lot of those verbal “pats on the head:”  nervous laughter accompanies comments like, “Sure, yeah, when you get those millions, be sure you give us some,” or “Uh huh, I’m going to win too,” or “Right, you’re the one who’s going to beat those gazillion to one odds.  Good luck with that.”

The other day, I was telling a friend that Tim got a job with the Census Bureau.  (He’s going to be working part to full time for about 10 weeks starting Friday.)  I told my friend that Tim and I had talked about how to keep his multi-millionaire identity while he does this job.

I wondered how Tim was going to pull that off, and Tim told me that he sees the job as an adventure, a way to do his “civic duty,” and meet some interesting people.  He’s chosen to look at the aspects of it that jive with his identity instead of seeing it as a job he has to have in order to keep us afloat awhile longer, which is our “what is” story.  Tim refuses to look at what is.  He’s firmly living in HIS story.

When my friend heard Tim’s perspective, she laughed in that way people laugh when they don’t agree with you and they want to lighten up what they’re about to say.  She said, “Well, yes, I know he wants to win a lottery, but I’m glad he got a job.  You know, law of attraction is one thing, but it really doesn’t apply to the lottery.  The lottery is just so …. “

“It’s so what?” I asked.

“Well, you don’t earn it.  It doesn’t, well, put anything good into the world.  So it’s, well ….” She trailed off.

“Unworthy?” I asked.

“Exactly,” she said.  “I mean I love Tim to pieces, but he needs to get realistic.”  Can’t you just see her patting him on the head?

In their book, Money and the Law of Attraction, Abraham fields a question about a woman who worked hard to support herself and her unemployed husband.  She struggled constantly, and he never worried about money at all and did little to contribute financially.  The woman and her husband divorced, and the now ex-husband inherited a million dollars.  The woman wanted him to share it with her because of all the years she struggled to support them.  He wouldn’t share.  The person asking Abraham the question says, “It doesn’t seem fair that she cared about money and worked hard for it and received so little, while he barely worked, didn’t seem to care about money, and has now inherited over a million dollars.  How can this be?”

Abraham answered:

“The woman worked hard, felt resentment, focused upon lack—and the Universe matched those feelings precisely.  Her husband felt ease, refused to feel guilty, expected things to come to him easily—and the Universe matched those feelings precisely.  Many believe that they must work hard, struggle, pay a price, and feel pain, and that they will then be rewarded for their struggle—but that is not consistent with the Laws of the Universe.  You cannot find a happy ending to an unhappy journey.  That defies Law.”

Fairness, as we define it in our society, and worthiness, as we see it, have nothing to do with what comes to us.  It’s vibration.  All of it.  Every bit of it.

Tim knows this.  He doesn’t care what others think about the lottery.  To him, it’s a flow of abundance that he has tapped into.  That simple.  Odds are irrelevant.  Questions of worthiness or ethics or fairness are irrelevant.

Tim decided to apply to the Census job because it sounded like fun. He was also aware that I don’t feel as rich as he does, and I would like to have more income in our “what is” reality.  He knows he doesn’t need to take care of my reality, but it makes him feel good, he says, to do something that brings me some peace of mind.  Interestingly, I had already found thoughts that brought me peace of mind before he applied for and got the job.

Is winning the lottery worthy?

Who cares?

Is selling fast food or junk food or cigarettes worthy?  Is someone who earns money selling weapons worthy of abundance?  Do athletes really deserve the millions they earn?

We can think ourselves into a mass of negative vibration if we try and sort out all the potential judgments to be made about how money can come into our lives.  And the truth is that none of it is wrong or right.  To repeat, it’s all vibration.  Every bit of it.

If someone pats you on the head and tells you that your idea or your identity isn’t worthy or it’s silly or it’s not realistic, do what Tim does:  wag your tail.  No, not literally, although that’s fine too.  Just smile and stay in YOUR reality.  It’s the one that matters.

A Winning Guy

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

Twice a week, Tim goes to a nearby mini-mart and gets his lottery tickets. Notice I didn’t say he “buys” them because he hasn’t bought a ticket in weeks. He wins between $5 and $10 or more dollars every set of drawings and he uses the winnings to get the next batch of tickets.

Thursday, he was in the mini-mart, and the owner, with whom he’s become friendly, said, “Tim, you just keep winning!” Our state just got Powerball in January, and since Tim bought $2 worth of tickets the first drawing, he’s won every time. The store’s owner said she knows of only a couple other people who have won anything at all (even $1) on Powerball, and Tim wins every drawing!

Until a couple weeks ago, I was quite aware that he hasn’t won the big one yet (the one he KNOWS he’s going to win and in fact already feels like he’s won). But when I became more aware of my point of attraction, I shifted to start paying attention to how often he wins period.

Instead of looking at winning a lot, I started looking at winning. Just winning.

Yesterday, I came across a story about a woman named Renee Green from Bellevue, Washington. A week ago, she donated her entire tax refund to the Haiti fund. This week, she won $50,000 on a lottery scratch ticket.

This woman reminds me of Tim. We don’t have a tax refund to donate, but this woman’s donation shows that she had trust in the universe’s never ending stream of abundance. She felt no need to hang onto her $700 because she knew more was coming.

This is how Tim feels. He has no concerns about our apparent lack of funds because he knows more is coming. It’s nice to be married someone who has such a point of attraction (vibrational match) with abundance.

I’ve read many blog posts, articles, and other law of attraction materials chastising people for believing that they can attract a lottery win into their lives. The going belief seems to be that you can attract jobs and business opportunities and other career-oriented sources of money but not lottery wins. This has always baffled me. Why does money HAVE to come from jobs and career?

Abraham-Hicks address this in their book, Money and the Law of Attraction. They say that the reason most people only get money from jobs is because they THINK they can only get money from jobs and business.

But, Abraham-Hicks reminds us:

“We want you to hear – anything that you want – there is nothing off-limit. ANYTHING THAT YOU WANT !! All you got to do is conjure it until the conjured image dominates your vibration. And when the conjured image that pleases you dominates your vibration, everything in the universe will shift.  EVERYTHING will shift in order to help you to achieve the manifestation of this that you’ve conjured. IT IS LAW, it absolutely HAS to be. In fact, it is being in every moment of your experience. Everything that you are living is the perfect reflection of your vibrational countenance.”

So I’m excited about watching Tim keep winning and winning and winning. I’m putting my attention on the part I like, the winning. The amount right now is irrelevant. Tim has already won millions in his thoughts.

Even as he works in his office here in our home, in his mind, he is in Oregon now, living on our ocean-view acreage. He’s building virtual furniture in his virtual shop. He drives a virtual truck and plays virtual golf. He takes me on virtual trips in our virtual RV and gives big chunks of virtual money to our friends and to total strangers. He leaves virtual 50 % tips to food servers and spends time on the Internet looking for gifts he virtually buys for me (am I a lucky woman, or what?).

Bless my husband for not letting me pull him out of his virtual world when I was obsessing over what is. Tim is a winning guy. Who knows what he’ll win next.

Why Not Feel Good?

Friday, March 12th, 2010

In Money, and the Law of Attraction—Learning to Attract Wealth, Health & Happiness, Jerry Hicks says that he often hears people talk about wanting to win a lottery. Abraham’s response to this is, “If their expectation were in a place that would allow it, then that could be a way for money to come to them. But most know the odds against that, and so their expectation for winning the lottery is not in a powerful place….”

For two and half years, Tim has been more than expecting to win a lottery. He KNOWS he will. He has an absolutely unshakable knowing that he has a big lottery win in his vibrational escrow.

When people mention the odds to him, he looks at them calmly and says, “The odds are irrelevant. It’s about my vibrational alignment.”

Throughout the last few  months when I’ve been steadfastly putting my attention on what I don’t want (to run out of money), Tim has been calmly, contentedly going through his days acting as relaxed as a person with all the money he needs in the bank.

Yes, he gets annoyed from time to time. He gets caught up in the what is of little things like computer problems or broken household appliances or Ducky’s enthusiastic, mischievous puppyhood. But most of the time, he’s cool.

So am I happy about him being happy?

Why wouldn’t I be?

Well …..

I have this little problem with his happiness.

I’ve been gnawing at this problem for several months now. It doesn’t taste very good.

My problem is this:

If Tim KNOWS he’s going to win a big lottery and he feels good, isn’t he in the Vortex, aligned with his nonphysical self? And if he is in the Vortex, aligned with his nonphysical self, how did he manage to manifest all of our debt and our financial mess?

It makes no sense to me that someone who feels like a rich lottery winner would be attracting what he’s attracted.

Drives me nuts.

Whenever I start finding a feel good place, reaching for thoughts that make me feel better and better and better, this one nagging thought careens through my good thoughts, blasting them aside like a heavy bowling ball plowing into the pins: “But if feeling good is how you bring your desires into your life, why isn’t Tim closer to what he wants?”

Every week or two, I ask him, “Are you SURE you feel as good as you say you do?”

My wonderful husband … he heaves a little sigh, just to acknowledge that we’ve been here before and he doesn’t like it here very much, and he says, “I’m sure.”

“But if you feel so good, why are we rich?” I fling at him.

“I feel rich,” he says. “And our riches are coming.”

Yes, I do see what I’m doing. I’m taking stock of where we are, which is what Abraham-Hicks says NOT to do.

But … they also say that you can tell how aligned you are by what’s coming into your life.

I’m baffled by what seems to me to be a contradiction. Aren’t you taking stock when you notice what’s coming into your life (or not coming)?

So last night, I was bugging Tim with our bi-weekly “Are you sure…” conversation, and this thought popped into my head: “I haven’t stuck with tenaciously finding reasons to feel good because I harbor doubts that doing so will bring what I desire into my life. How silly is that? Why not tenaciously feel good just because it feels good and see what happens? Why not ignore what Tim is doing (I’ve resolved to do this before but didn’t stick to the resolve)?”

This thought felt very good. So that’s what I’m doing.

When my thoughts turn to why Tim hasn’t won yet, I can feel the shift in my energy. My new project (which I think I’m going to chew on even more than my old problem) is to turn it back to finding a reason to feel good.

Amplify, Amplify, Amplify

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

First, a HUGE thank you to Karen for her great comments on my Many Paths of Resistance post. They’re SUCH a big help! (They come under the heading of, duh, of COURSE I know that, but I forgot to do it.)

Tim and I have been doing a lot of thinking about the video I put on yesterday’s post. And we’ve realized that though we talk a lot about what we want and how cool it will be to have it, we are doing far more of that than we are talking about what’s working NOW.

This isn’t such a big deal for Tim because his vibration around what’s coming is pretty clear. He’s purely excited about it, and when he thinks of it, it makes him feel good.

I, however, have a messy vibration about what we want. I am sure I’m activated far more on the end of the stick that’s associated with “it’s not here yet.” In other words, when I think about moving to Oregon or getting my book published, etc., I’m noticing that we’re not there yet and it isn’t published yet.

Yesterday, I said to Tim (and for the first time in a long time meant it), “The reason why my YA series and screenplays haven’t sold has nothing to do with my writing not being good enough. It’s more than good enough. The reason has to do with my vibration. I have a messy vibration. I have pulled the vibration of all the disappointment I had five years ago into my present submissions and so they aren’t turning out any better.”

He agreed.

And then Karen posted her comments today, which say pretty much the same thing. … That’s law of attraction.

Tim and I also talked about the lottery win. We keep talking about it coming, but do we talk about all the money he’s won so far? He wins between $3 and $10 every drawing, and he has been doing that consistently for well over a year … twice a week, for a year, he’s been winning money from the lottery.

But we haven’t been focused on that. We’ve been focused on the win that’s coming.

So I have decided that my top priority needs to be amplifying what is good right now.  As Karen points out, the notice of what’s not good is a great starting point for zeroing in on what’s wanted, and I’m doing that too.

But in the meantime, here’s what’s wonderful right now:

My husband LOVES me no matter what I do or say or how I look.

My dog LOVES me the same way.

I am a published author. I have vast knowledge about fiction and nonfiction writing.

I’m currently doing writing coaching, and it’s not my first choice, but every time I help another writer, my own knowledge is expanded.

Tim wins money in the lottery twice a week, every week.

We have plenty of money to pay our bills right now.

I’ve attracted over $3000 to us in the last couple weeks.

We live in a great house in a great town.

I have friends who care about me.

I’m really enjoying writing this blog.

I love taking pictures of Ducky and I love working on The Joyful Springer.

My former newspaper editor told me I am a “very talented writer.”

Even my agent, who declined to represent my current manuscript said my talent is “impressive.”

I’m a very good writer.

I have a wonderful manuscript to sell.

I’ve written 7 great screenplays.

I write very fast.

I know how to submit my work.

…..

This is just the beginning of my list, but these are the things I’m amplifying.

You have to take what’s right and put your focus on that. You can’t feel good by looking at what’s wrong.

Abraham-Hicks says, “It is attention to lack that causes negative emotion, always.”

If you want to feel good, you have to look at what you have.

I know how to do this.

My Springer spaniel, Muggins, (Ducky’s predecessor) died in October last year, at the age of 17 years and 17 days. In the last couple years, Muggins was a high-maintenance dog. She required a lot of care.

Many of my friends were amazed at what we “went through” for Muggins. We gave her over 20 supplements and herbs daily (which we had to give her in peanut butter or the like—it was a sloppy process). We home-cooked her food. When we walked her, we spent a lot of time standing around and we walked really slowly because her pace was ‘barely moving.’ We had to put rubberized flannel on our bed because she had accidents in her sleep. Eventually, she needed diapers. Etc., etc.

All of this was the “lack” side of Muggins.

But that’s not what we focused on. We focused on how sweet she was, how soft she was, how much she made us smile, how loyal she was, how funny she was, how beautiful she was …. And she lived four years longer than the average Springer spaniel.

Like I said, I know how to do this. I just haven’t been doing it in regard to money and my career and, well, pretty much everything except my dogs.

But I’m going to take my ability to do it on the subject of my dogs and AMPLIFY it to include all the other subjects in my life.

What’s going right in your life? I’d love to hear your comments about what you’re focusing on.

Many Paths Of Resistance

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

Today’s Abraham-Hicks quote is:

“It’s not your work to make anything happen. It’s your work to dream it and let it happen. Law of Attraction will make it happen. In your joy, you create something, and then you maintain your vibrational harmony with it, and the Universe must find a way to bring it about. That’s the promise of Law of Attraction.”

I’m attempting to find my vibrational harmony with what I want, and part of that process is being sure that I’m on “the path of least resistance.”

The path of least resistance, according to Abraham-Hicks, is the course of action that feels best.

Resistance is what keeps us from having what we want; it’s a vibration that doesn’t match with our desires. It’s those negative feelings that line up with things we don’t want.

When we’re on the path of least resistance, we’re aligned with our nonphysical self, and we’re moving toward what we want. Our vibration matches our desires so the law of attraction can bring those desires to us.

Sometimes, it’s easy to decide what we need to do. One choice feels awkward and uncomfortable, and the other choice makes our heart sing.

Most choices, though, aren’t so clear cut.

In my case, for instance, all my choices suck … or at least that’s how it feels to me.

For over 20 years, I have been focused on living a life of creative and financial freedom. I want to be an author. That’s the work I want to do. I don’t care if that work brings me money or if money comes in some other enjoyable way so I can spend my time writing, but I want to have the freedom to fill my days with writing.

And I want those days to have a leisurely flow to them.

My ideal day goes something like this: I wake up naturally between 7:30 and 8:30. I get up and take a long walk with my dog. I come home and work out. I shower. I have a little snack, and I sit down to write, sometime between 11 and 12. I write until about 6 and stop for the day. I spend my evenings drawing, singing, playing the piano, watching movies, training my dog, playing games and spending time with my husband.

Yes, I know this isn’t how society tells us we should spend our days, but there it is.

For many years, this was how I spent my days.

Then something went wrong. Though I sold three books to large publishers and made some money with my writing, it wasn’t enough to support me. My other financial resources started running out. I tried to sell more books and ended up having terribly negative experiences with agents, editors, publishers, and PR people.

Since I was getting the sense I couldn’t support myself with my writing, Tim and I turned to the internet. We spent the next two years attempting to build a profitable internet business and network marketing business.

At the time of these decisions, I’d kind of forgotten about the law of attraction (even though I did know about it) and the teachings of Abraham-Hicks. I wasn’t thinking in terms of paths of least resistance. Still, I was trying to follow my inner guidance.

Even so, we failed miserably.

I hated doing internet and network marketing. I truly despised it. I kept trying to tell myself to like it. I’d remind myself of the income potential and tell myself, “At least you’re writing” (because I was doing newsletters, articles, and e-books), but I knew I wasn’t doing what I wanted to do.

So I stopped. I took a leap of faith. Even though we were running on financial fumes, I started writing screenplays. I was so excited about the process (“in your joy, you create something”). I was sure I’d succeed. Besides, Tim had decided he was going to win a lottery. He took Abraham’s “it’s as easy to create a castle as it is a button” to heart. He knew he was a lottery winner.

But I didn’t succeed, and he didn’t win.

Then I read Twilight by Stephanie Myer. With all due respect to Myer, I know I write as well or better than she does. I knew I could write a great YA book. So I came up with what I thought was a great, unique plot line, wrote a manuscript and the synopses of all four books in the planned series.

I was sure I’d have it sold by now.

Not only hasn’t it been sold but the agent who was going to represent it decided (after getting me to rewrite it to address issues she had with it) it “wasn’t for her.”

And now we’re out of money.

So in the last couple months, I’ve been doing all this stuff to try and get money.

And I don’t like any of it.

So now, what is my path of least resistance?

We have 3 ½ months of money and no income at the moment.

Do I trust that money will come from someplace and just keep submitting my manuscript and doing things I love and not worry about generating an income in any logical way?

That was my plan at the beginning of this year. I was going to find ways to feel good and trust that the money would come.

Then friends started suggesting ways to bring in money: do editing for pay, look for freelance writing work, go out and get a job at McDonald’s.

I decided that made sense (it didn’t feel good, but it made logical sense). So for 6 weeks, I’ve been trying to get a freelance gig that pays something other than pennies per hour. I’ve submitted many proposals and haven’t landed a gig.

So I dropped my coaching rates really low and sent a promotion to people on my writing tips mailing list. Seven people decided to take me up on it. It helped me get some money, which is great.

But here’s the problem.

I really don’t enjoy writing coaching.

I have a couple clients I enjoy (one of you knows who you are ;) ), but most of the coaching work I do is very tough work and I have to make myself do it.

Then there are the other avenues Tim and I are exploring. I don’t like them either.

We are submitting my manuscript, but so far, we’re just getting rejections. The submission process is slow (see how I’m aligning with what I don’t want??)

I find myself facing many paths of resistance:

1. Don’t do anything to create an income; trust that I will sell a book in time (the odds of that are something akin to winning a lottery).

2. Don’t do anything to create an income; trust that Tim will win the lottery as he vehemently claims he will.

3. Pursue one of 3 paths I’ve thought of so far to bring in money, none of which make me feel good at all.

None of these paths feel good. The first two sound good, but I have too much fear that what I want won’t happen in time, and so I know that’s not a place of alignment.

The last path has the potential for income, but at what price? Me spending my days doing things I don’t want to do?

As Abraham says, you can’t put a smiley face on top of an empty gas gauge and expect to be okay. Pretending doesn’t work. I can’t make myself feel happy about doing things I truly don’t want to do.

Anyone have any words of wisdom to share? Any experience with taking the non-action path and lining up with what you want so the universe brings it to you? Any experience with finding a way to feel good about something you currently feel lousy about?

I’d like to attract some ideas that can help me find a path of least resistance. I just can’t seem to get myself to skip gaily down any of the paths that lay before me now.

A Little More Evidence

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

Since Tim and I want to do something that “defies the odds,” that being win a large lottery, we talk often about things that have big, big odds.

Today, when we started our weekly Sunday Scrabble game, I went first. I played the word, “joked.”

Tim’s turn. On my “d,” he played the word, “joked.”

Okay, what are the odds?

“J” and “k” are not common letters in Scrabble. For us to both get the same combination of letters on the first turn is an extraordinary occurrence.

Evidence of defying the odds? I choose to see it that way.

Scientific Evidence of Mind Power

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Today, I was reminded of a University of Chicago study on visualization.

In the study, basketball players were tested to determine their free-throw proficiency. Once tested, the players were randomly placed in one of three groups.

The first group practiced shooting free throws for an hour each day.

The second group visualized shooting free throws daily.

The third group didn’t play basketball or think about basketball.

After 30 days, all the players in all three groups took another free throw skill test.

The players in the group that had practiced daily improved by 24 percent.

The players in the group that hadn’t done anything didn’t test as well as they had the first time (no big surprise).

The players in the third group, those who had ONLY visualized, improved by 23 percent, nearly as much as those who had physically practiced!

This is the power of the mind.

If you’re old enough, you may remember the old Aqua Velvet commercials where the men get slapped in the face with the aftershave.  I think they said something like, “Thanks, I needed that.”

Being reminded of this experiment was my slap in the face. It warned me that I’ve been doing the negative equivalent of visualizing my financial doom.  That’s what worry is—visualizing what you don’t want.

Well, enough of that. Since I’ve been going around shouting, “Yahoo, we won the lottery!” I’m finding it easier to imagine actually winning and moving to Oregon like we want.

The more I imagine it, the better I feel. And as I’ve said, it’s the feeling that matters more than the seeing!

How about it? What are you visualizing in a way that’s making you feel good?

Just A Little Bet

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

One of the things that’s been hanging me up about Tim’s conviction about winning the lottery is the fact that, to my eyes, he doesn’t act like a lottery winner. It bugs me, even though I know that his alignment is not my business.

We’ve actually argued about it. I say that if he really feels like a lottery winner, he’ll act like one. He says he does feel like one but just doesn’t think to talk about it. I say that when people feel a certain way, they talk about it and their body language reflects it. He says he doesn’t know why he doesn’t talk about it or act like it, but he insists that he feels like it.

Back and forth we go.

How dumb is that?

We’re putting ourselves out of alignment by arguing about being in alignment. Total insanity.

I decided to put a stop to it.

Although I’m busy doing what’s necessary to bring in money in more traditional ways, I decided to amp up the happy feelings of winning a lottery. Instead of waiting for Tim do something that makes me feel like it’s coming, I’m doing it myself. (Finally!)

First, every time I see Tim (when one or the other of us comes into the room), I shout, “Yahoo, we won the lottery!!!!!”

The first time I did it, he jumped a foot, literally. Very fun. Made us both laugh. Which is the idea. Ducky got into it too. She thought it was great tail-wagging fun!

Of course, when I do that, Tim grins and then talks about something we’re going to do now that we’ve won.

Second, I made a little bet with Tim. Inspired by Seguro Ndabene and by all the law of attraction evidence I’ve been amassing, I decided I could darn well win my own lottery.

The one I have in mind is a smaller state lottery. I figure if I can manifest $2000, which I have in the last two weeks, I can manifest $100,000. So that’s what I’m going to do.

And I’ve bet Tim that I will win mine before he wins his. He, of course, believes he’ll win his first.

The loser of our bet has to wait on the winner, doing whatever the winner wants, including all cooking, cleaning etc. and including massages, for a full month.

Tim is convinced I’ll be waiting on him. Ha! I plan to win first so he’ll wait on me. Then he can win his millions.

Tim is a very competitive guy. He likes to win. I suspected that having this bet would get him talking a bit more about winning. And it’s working. He keeps asking me to do things for him, so I can “get in practice for losing the bet.”

It’s all fun, and that’s the name of the game.

Attracting Lottery Jackpots

I got this e-mail from someone selling hypnosis to help you align your energy so the law of attraction can work in your life.  I haven’t had much luck with hypnosis, so I wasn’t interested, but the story this person told in the e-mail did get my attention.

The story was about Seguro Ndabene, a man who has won FIVE Canadian lotteries.  He has won: $1 million in the Western 6/49 in 2004; $100,000 in the Super 7 Extra in Calgary in 2006; $1 million and $50,000 in the Western 6/49 in Airdrie, Alta., in 2008; and $17 million in January 2009 (apparently this last one was disputed but finally settled).

Okay, first, WOW!!  Five lottery jackpots, and I’m doubting that Tim can attract one?

And second, isn’t it cool how the law of attraction has brought me evidence of winning lotteries?

First, I found Cynthia Stafford’s story—I’ll admit I went looking for that one; I was googling “win the lottery on purpose.”  Now Seguro Ndabene’s story lands in my inbox.  I didn’t go looking for it, but given how much I’ve been thinking about winning lotteries on purpose, it’s exiting to have the story come to me.

If you google Seguro, you’ll see him described as the luckiest man around.  But I don’t believe in what people call luck.  The universe isn’t that random. I know that Seguro is aligned with lottery jackpots.

That’s what I want to be, and I’m making it my top priority to do that.
