Act As If

You may have heard that if you want to create something in your life you should act as if you already have it.  If you desire more money, act as if you have more money and it will come.  If you want a loving relationship, act as if you have a loving relationship and it will come.  If you want a healthy body, act as if you have a healthy body and it will come.
 
This is one of the functions of the Law of Attraction and how you set the Law of Attraction in motion.
 
When I first learned this idea about 'act as if', I didn't really understand it.  I thought I should act as if I had money, so I would spend it.  I thought I should act as if I could run a marathon and then I over extended myself.  Something about 'acting as if' in my outer world seems to prevent me from achieving what I wanted!  Then, I finally got it.  It is about 'acting as if' in my inner world, in my mind, that was the key to success.
 
When you begin to think the feelings of having more money, better relationships or greater health, your unconscious mind begins to adjust your perceptions so you can recognize what it takes to get what you want to have.  It will adjust your values so you are doing what it takes.
 
The feeling of having a new car is not having the new car itself yet it is the feeling that sets up the condition by which you save the money for the car, find the car, negotiate your best deal and finally buy the car.  That is the process of having... and it all began with a feeling you got in touch with by acting as if you had it.
 
Ask yourself, "If I am a new car owner, how do I feel?  If I am healthy, how do I feel?"  Then, act as if.
 
BE Amazing,
