"Should I Tell My Husband The Truth?"
Published: Sat, 05/02/15
"Yesterday my husband and I were having a
conversation about a major purchase we need
to make. He asked me if I could figure out a
way for us to be able to afford it because he can't.
I didn't want to say the wrong thing and speak it
into the universe so I didn't say anything. Fact is
right now we don't have the funds. So I said nothing
and he got irritated.
I was having an internal war on what was the
best way to answer him. Any advice?"
Yup.
For starters, you should know this is a very smart
person. She's done some very impressive things
professionally, so no one gets to judge. Even if
she hadn't we don't get to judge anyway.
OK, now that that's out of the way...
"Speaking things into existence" is not a license
for being dishonest with yourself or those
around you. There are certain facts that are
undeniable.
If you want to deny them to yourself, it's a
problem, but at least it's just your problem.
If you want to misrepresent them to someone
who is an important person in your life, but not
necessarily on the same exact path, that's a whole
different can of beans.
As far as my advice, if you're going to use imagery
and "Law of Attraction" to pave the way for good
stuff, you are on the right path. But it has to include
an honest assessment of where you are.
The energy has to be clean. It's everything I described
in HOW TO RECEIVE. (This particular individual
has the book...and should definitely reread the first
two sections!)
Then when you're in a place of stronger self-worth
and confidence, you'll be in a much better place to
face the current reality. You'll feel in it, but not of it.
And you'll be much better able to imagine all the
good stuff on the other side.
And best of all, you will be in a much stronger
position to paint a picture of abundance to the
important people in your life.
You won't have to mislead or misrepresent the
current situation in order to get what you need.
Trust that helps!
Much Love,
Larry
P.S.: A lot of people got hurt because they imagined
they could "intend" their problems away with LOA,
voo doo magic and other things that our better selves
know aren't true.
Yes, we all have power of intention and force of will
that very few of us have harnessed. But it always starts
with self-mastery. Once we learn to control ourselves,
we can collaborate with our outside world and create
some awesome stuff!
P.P.S.: I strongly recommend picking up HOW TO RECEIVE.
It's the method I used to distill down all the best parts of
positive thinking, combine it will self-mastery and personal
effectiveness, and make it something you can take action
on right away.
P.P.P.S.: I got my friend's permission to share her question
before publishing it. Even though her name isn't
mentioned, it could still be a little jarring to see
your story out in public.
