Dear Athena,
I’ve been following you for a year and whilst I never had coaching with you I always felt like we were friends and you knew exactly what I was going through.
I’ve used the law for many incredible things: finding jobs, money, speeding up appointments on the NHS (and you know how that itself is miraculous!), SPs, and even specific skills. I am dyspraxic but I’ve always dreamt of playing the piano, so one day I started affirming for it and in the matter of weeks I was able to play my favourite songs and sing to them! Which for someone with coordination issues is nothing short of amazing.
My most recent success is with my OG SP, who’s the one I first learnt about the law for. My past limiting beliefs kept me stuck to a version of him
that was inconsistent, but in my heart I knew he was the one for me.
I won’t get into too many details but in April I got fed up with his past self and I cut him off. We were in complete no contact, but the more distant we were the more my limiting beliefs started shedding. I noticed how poorly I used to treat him because my low self concept was telling me that I didn’t deserve his love, and I realised that this poor man had tried to love me for more than a year without me noticing. It was so evident that even when dating other people, who would profess their interest for me, they would tell me the same exact things that he did. So I had this light bulb moment where I actually hated myself for not seeing this before and unintentionally ruining our relationship, but I practiced radical acceptance and forgiveness for my past self. I knew that we needed to take a break and that this distance would only be beneficial. I also knew that he would come back.
But… I did so many techniques, all the stuff under the sun, and still nothing.
Fast forward to two days ago, I realised that I was using those techniques to daydream without actually living in the present moment and embodying the state. He was mine in a future life, not now.
So what did I do? I dropped everything and allowed myself to SIT IN THE PRESENT MOMENT. Even if it was painful at first because everything in the present kept telling me that I didn’t have what I wanted.
I stopped fantasising, and sat in the present. Just that. Lived my life, today I went for drinks with a friend…
And I met two women in a charity shop who were talking about their love lives in a way that resonated with me. They were both mature and told me that we can always find new loves when we least expect, and one of them even reassured me about having children (I was always scared I’d be too old to have any) by telling me of her miracle child, whom she had when she turned 44!!! That lady told me not to rush things, and that I would be happy myself. It felt like a divine message, really, but it filled my heart with hope. I realised that I would find love no matter what and I dropped every expectation regarding my SP.
Then I came home I saw he posted something really specific (he was talking about one of my special interests) that I had no idea he knew anything about. That led us to texting and bam! We’re talking.
Now, two very important things to note:
1. I don’t feel any different than I did before. That’s because I successfully went into the state of someone who has that specific desire. This just feels normal! I did initiate the conversation and I did so without thinking too much about it because again, it felt like the most natural thing to do! Most time people manifesting something are afraid to take action, but I’m telling you that when you get into the state of the person who has their desired reality you will just move into that direction yourself. If you feel like doing something is unnatural or risky it’s probably because you still haven’t switched into your new self. For example, I used to think I shouldn’t tell my SP I loved him… because I thought he’d reject me. At the same time, I was manifesting him loving me and of course I didn’t even see him until later! My behaviour was an indication that I wasn’t actually manifesting anything correctly 🤣
2. He came back and it doesn’t feel like we’ve met before. He’s changed and has interests that better match mine and during these months he changed his life for the better. The cool part is that I always thought I wanted him back but that I didn’t want it to feel like I was reheating past flames. I wanted a better love, with all the good feelings you have at the beginning and that’s what I’m going to get!
So my key take out here is that really, there’s nothing to change but ourselves. And our feelings and actions are the first indication of the quality of the work we’re doing.
Thank you for all you do Athena,
Have a lovely weekend
