Abundance Challenge Diary by Ann

[Annbros]

Today I started with video 14 - I think it is important to focus on my root chakra after seeing my mum and one of my brothers yesterday as we spoke a lot about childhood stuff which came up because he has been clearing so much stuff out of my mum's house (so charities have been doing really well!) and it demonstrated how we were always brought up to have cheap stuff as we 'couldn't afford' anything else. When we took my mum to view the new house I kept looking at how beautiful it was because the current owners have such good taste!

I then did video 16 to remind myself to appreciate things as my ego is already worrying about all the things we need to buy for the new house. I am however completely clear that the perfect person is going to arrive and fall in love with my house (two more viewings last night).

I did video 17 - it has taken me a long time to grasp the fact that there is no more effort required to manifest five pounds or 50 million - my logical brain struggled to get around this one!

Then I did the MYBM video on charging higher rates as that seemed to fit in perfectly with what I was doing. I still think I will return to this one on a number of occasions to keep ego at bay

I was out today and, on the drive home, put my intuition to the test to see if I could ignore Ego which got in the way on Sunday! I knew there was a shortcut to the motorway but I had only driven it once a couple of years ago from this location and that was the reverse way to my trip home. So I set off and trusted intuition to deliver me to the correct turnings and did it all without any errors!

I came back and did video 18 - fear of losing my miracle, as Ben had done a great posting on this.

Then I did the Gold Video - stop being defensive as the people we are buying from are being really stubborn and won't move until the middle of July, which in theory could cause a challenge in the sale of my mum's house. I am trusting that it is all going to work out perfectly.

Today I tapped videos 19 and 20 again. I know that my upbringing was all about bad things happening around having lots of money (the whole 'i am not worthy' thing) so 19 was a good reminder.

I was with people yesterday who were talking about the economy and the European Crisis, so felt tapping on the abundance of money was very appropriate, in order to stop this negative thinking from affecting me.

Oh and I had to do 21 about being lucky as the lottery tonight is going to be around $130million so think I will buy a ticket: I am thinking about all the good I could do with that

[Annbros]

Did 22 and 23. Decluttering very relevant as I am at my mum's and have been spending most of the day going through cupboards and selecting stuff for charity shops and what needs to go to the recycling centre: my car is full for a trip first thing tomorrow but I seem to have barely touched the surface (and that's after my brother did a load last week) as 45 years of never throwing stuff away means lots of things are still here - including nylon curtains from the 1960's!

Anyway an interesting story/lesson about intuition: 8 months ago I lost the keys to my mum's house. I had been out a lot and just assumed they had fallen out of my bag. I emptied it and no luck. But my intuition kept telling me they weren't lost. Anyway we found my Dad's set of keys so I've been using those. Well, when I dropped in last Sunday, guess what? Yes, those keys had disappeared too, so I emptied my bag and then found them in the lining as there was a hole in it. It took me three days to realise they weren't my Dad's keys, they were the original keys I had thought had fallen out, as I had transferred his keys onto my car key chain. So my intuition was spot on: it just took 8 months for me to find the keys that were in my bag all the time!

And keys are very symbolic so you might want to look at the messages from the Universe on this one ...

[Annbros]

OK I will certainly do that with the keys.

today I started with video 24 - I am getting over this whole idea of me having more means the world is so unfair. I actually don't begrudge anyone having money if they have put it to good use and earned it without doing harm to others. I am really noticing the anger towards people with money at the moment, and the people with this anger are all about lack. I am quickly picking up on this and immediately deleting it from my brain. When I told a friend yesterday that the people who are selling us their house have now said they won't move until July 14th (having given us the impression that was their latest date for moving) he said that they would probably pull out and I shouldn't trust them! I immediately said I had complete faith it would all work out fine, which took him by surprise! I really didn't like the energy around this and will be careful of what I say to people like him.

Video 25 - I always think of loaves and fishes with this one. I am madly clearing out stuff at my mum's and took 6 bags of stuff to the recycling centre this morning. I have a whole area of a room with stuff that can go to charity and yet people keep telling me I should put it on ebay. Well I hate ebay - I feel sick just looking at the site - and I would much rather someone benefited from stuff that has been sitting in cupboards unused for years.

Video 26 - Hmm I wonder how Bill Gates copes with the responsibility of his charitable foundation? I think the responsibility and pressure of not having enough money and the worry caused by being in a lack mindset is much worse!

What I love about the AC is how much easier I now pick up on 'lack-speak' and can get myself away from that mindset and back on the abundance highway.

Found this on keys: "Spiritually, the key has represented the power to open the door between this world and the next. Temporally, it has represented rule over everything, from empires and feudal kingdoms to single households.
Throughout history, keys have been used to symbolise man's ability to gain access to those things of either a material or spiritual nature which are of the greatest significance to him."

[Erika Awakening]

Yes about the keys, that's what I was getting at ...

[Annbros]

Yes about the keys, that's what I was getting at ...

Thinking about this i reckon it applies to both areas: soon I will be in charge of the new household and also I have recently realised I haven't been so in tune with my higher self, and want to change that.

Oh and yes, manifesting money would be the material aspect!

Today started with video 27 - I think you can never stop keeping a handle on the years of being brought up with Catholic guilt, just to make sure it doesn't sneak back in. It also emphasised how we really just get in our own way with the stupid beliefs that we have been taught from childhood and so rarely question. Staying focussed and ignoring all the negative stuff that people are saying around me is so important.

I'm really getting to understand how this whole 'money is bad' idea is so ridiculous: if we were still bartering would we say that 'grain is bad, butter is bad, oranges are bad'? Of course not.

Video 28 is a great reminder about the linear/logical thing and that you cannot always see what awaits: I had a great example of this from my decluttering at my mum's. I have taken so much stuff to the recycling centre and have a load of stuff put aside for charity, yet, if you looked around my mum's living room you would think we had hardly done anything, because the stuff we have cleared out is in desks, sideboards and drawers! They are all empty, but it is not obvious. A good metaphor to what is going on behind the scenes and what God is preparing!

So yes, those setbacks are all part of the plan, which is why I am refusing to get angry or wanting to 'force' the people we are buying from to move more quickly, now they have said they won't do it before July 14th.

Exactly!

And about the timing of the house, yes Ann this is good practice for stepping back to see the big picture.

Remember in my car story how I wanted the car and then had a financial "setback"? If I had tried to force the timing of the car, I would have missed out on the Universe giving it to me in such a miraculous way.

I updated this article a few days ago, give it another read and use it for inspiration in your house situation:

Thanks for that reminder Erika and the update. I will definitely use it for inspiration around the house move!
