Attracting What You Want is About Making Commitments

By now you have heard about the power of attraction and the help the universe gives to you on an ongoing basis. The reason this works so well is, when you are more firmly committed to what it is you want, lots of good things happen.

For example, if you commit to having something clear and concise to happen to you, you have a better chance of achieving it, by committing to it rather than wishing or hoping it will happen.

Here is a perfect statement. I am committing to making more money and will get a new job this year that pays me more and makes me happy. This is a perfect commitment statement.

Commitment is also about intention. Commitment then is: making a firm decision with the intent of having something happen that brings about the outcome we desire.

In my book "The Ten Commitments to a Better Life", I ask the reader to commit to " knowing " that there is a power greater than the individual reading the book.

Knowing that there is a power that exists that is greater than you personally and committing to it, puts a powerful force behind everything now that you want to do.

Fear, worry, lack of courage all disappear just by making this one simple commitment. So, by knowing and committing to this thought, that there is a power greater than you and applying this thinking, it is like having a major partner helping you get what it is you want. We know we have the power around us and now we can apply our personal power giving us a better opportunity of achieving the proper outcome.

Its that simple. When one commits to knowing what one is looking for it usually shows up. Think about it, there are no mysteries in the world, everything happens because we are able to see it because we are committed to seeing it when it appears. Making a commitment allows us to see the sign posts guiding us to where it is want to be or to the things we want. Non commitment then -- leaves us still searching and wandering.

If you are not sure where you are going, any road will get you there. Most of us are usually on the wrong road most of the time because we don't commit to what road we want to take. Its this indecisiveness that keeps us off balance and gives us our lack of focus.

The truth is, life becomes easier when we are honest with what it is we really want and when one commits to something more meaningful. It gets easier to be in integrity and easier to live with more truths and less lies.

The lack of commitment also allows most humans to wander around aimlessly experimenting with life, but not really getting what it is they want because they are always searching and still doing what I call research. Research is great, however a some point you need to commit to what it is you want, where you want to be, and where you want to fit in. Its that simple. Once you do that, the universe has a clear understanding of what it is you want and then can proceed to help you in your quest.

I think you are right, its all about committing and being on top of your game. I need to do more committing to things I really care about. Thanks for writing this.
