A Winning Guy
Sunday, March 21st, 2010Twice 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.
