Your Preferences – As Unique As
Your Fingerprints
............................................
Would life be different, if you believed that everything you love and enjoy is just right for you?
What would happen if you knew yourself so well you could say with confidence, “No thank you, I prefer…”
How would you look at others, if you really understood that their choices are perfect for them?
The Law of Attraction teaches us to recognize our personal preferences by noticing how things feel and asking ourselves, “Which feels better? This or that?” When we take the time to notice our feelings, we learn about ourselves in a way that leads to great personal freedom and happiness.
Before I learned about the Law of Attraction and how I attract people, situations and opportunities in complete accord with my vibration (vibes), I tried to live by a set of standards or principles. I remember a time when I asked my pastor if he could give me a list of these principles so I could make sure I was living the right way. I did everything I could to be the perfect mother, dutiful housewife and selfless Christian. I thought that by conforming to what other people expected, I would become happy too. I was NOT a happy, joyful person. I was a person in great emotional and eventually physical, pain.
But the Law of Attraction taught me to notice when something doesn’t feel good, because that feeling of discomfort is an indicator that something is NOT good for me. Anything out of alignment with who I am and all the purposes I came to fulfill will NOT feel good. WOW! I had been placing my hand on a hot stove and trying to feel comfortable with the pain. I’d lived with chronic emotional and physical pain for so long that I was becoming numb to it. (A third degree burn is painless because all the nerve endings are burned away.)
One day, the truth finally dawned on me: Only I can choose what is best for me. No one can tell me what is good for me–only I can tell. And the way I tell is by noticing how everything feels, then looking for the thought, answer, idea or thing that feels best.
“Good feels good. Bad feels bad.” ~ Abraham-Hicks
Knowing and honoring my personal preferences causes me to fulfill ALL my life purposes–naturally. Everything I set out to do during this lifetime is already programmed within me. The way I ‘read the program’ is to notice what brings me great joy and follow that lead. In fact, this is the shortest and easiest way to find fulfillment. Before I learned about the Law of Attraction, I felt like I had lost 30 years of my life by trying to endure a poor marriage. But within 5 years of applying the Law of Attraction in the way described in this article, I felt caught up on life. About two years ago, I had a profound realization: “Today, I am exactly where I would be, if I had done the first 55 years of my life differently.” That is a GREAT feeling!
Now I tell my students: “Your personal preferences are as unique to you as your fingerprints. Only you can do certain things in this life and your preferences are there to guide you into actually living life in the most joyfully satisfying way!”
What about you? Are you seeing yourself in this light? Have you wondered why you don’t fit in with the crowd? Are you ready to accept yourself and your preferences as being right for YOU?
