Ask,
Believe, Receive, Thank You
Charli Williams |
First of all, you have to ask for what you
want. You may want some information, or to gain and serve
a new client, or know how to have a conversation with someone
so you both win.
How to ask, how to pray for assistance: It is important to
ask one clear question per request. This is not because of
Spirit's limited ability to answer; it is because of
our limited ability to hear the answer. In addition, it is
important to ask a question which can be answered. For example,
asking "Why me, God?" will not get you much information.
Bear in mind that Spirit already knows the
answer to every question. We just forget to ask, sometimes.
Ask for the information you want in a positive manner. For
example: Say or write: "Where is the Ideal home for
me? Tell me in a way I understand. Thank you, Amen."
Gratitude is very important to the process. Also, the state
of gratitude is an awesome place to live.
I made this request when I had a commitment to move out of
my current home, was not finding a residence which served
my needs, and I was running out of time. I was negotiating
on a condominium, and not getting the results I wanted. In
addition, the people involved were difficult to deal with,
and I didn't know what to do. I made my request, and
excused myself to go to lunch, saying I would look forward
to their decision via phone.
I went to lunch at a favorite restaurant
to relax and think what to do next.
I had just been seated, when the owner came over to my table.
He handed me a business card. "Charli," he said,
"I know you are looking to move. Here is the name of
the leasing agent at my apartment complex. He says he has
just the right apartment for you."
The apartment complex is only 1.5 miles from the restaurant,
so I visited after lunch. It is like a resort hotel -
beautiful! - with porters, 24 hour maintenance staff
and landscape care. The agent showed me the perfect apartment
in a great location, and the deal was done. I never lived
in an apartment before [nor thought I would]. This was so
easy.
Another example: Bette wanted to know if Joan was an Ideal
Client for her. Joan looked like an Ideal Client, but Bette
wasn't sure. So rather than continue to pursue, she
asked: "Is Joan an Ideal Client for me? Tell me in a
way I understand. Thank you, Amen." In fewer than 10
minutes, Bette said something to me which gave her the answer.
"Alison is definitely an Ideal Client, just the opposite
type of person as Joan." Bette was surprised by her
own words!
Often times, people get an answer by opening a book they are
guided to, or a magazine, or overhearing a conversation, or
something they see, which has nothing to do with them.
Rose had a difficult decision to make: Should she have her
cat put to sleep? Was it time to put him out of his suffering?
She asked, "Is it time for me to have Peaches put to
sleep? Tell me in a way I understand. Thank you, Amen."
Later that day she was taking the freeway to visit a friend.
On the side of an overpass very high above the ground was
the body of an orange cat. How did it even get up there? Peaches
was orange, so Rose had her answer.
Next, assume your desired outcome. That is, assume you will
get the answer to your question. You may have an idea about
how you will receive the information, or you may not. It does
not matter. During this process of learning, pay attention
to the ways you get helpful information. Remember: You do
not need to convince anyone else that you have this ability.
Use it for your own success, and the success of others, and
only discuss it with like-minded friends.
Spirit has a great sense of humor, and answers most often
come in the most surprising ways! As I said before, some people
open a book or a magazine, and their eye falls on the words
that answer the question. Some overhear a conversation, or
a song on the radio, or see an ad on television. Some people
"hear" the answer in their head. Others "just
know," sometimes it comes in a dream. When the answer
comes, you may not realize it until later. That is okay, too,
because you are becoming aware.
Be sure to say thank you when you realize you have received
the answer, just as you would to anyone who gave you a gift.
Often when people are beginning this practice, they are surprised
with the ease of the results, and are unthinkingly rude. "That
was weird," is something I hear a lot from people telling
me about their results.
However, if you think of your response as though you were
talking to a valued friend, you will speak and think differently.
For example, if I say to you, "You're weird,"
you will have a certain response. If I say, "You are
so interesting," or "You are wonderful,"
or "You made this so easy for me. Thank you!"
you will have another response. It is the same with Spirit,
so be gracious and grateful. And have fun with this. This
is not "work," this is play.
How do you get to the point of believing this will work? Practice,
practice, practice. Self-trust comes from self-confidence.
Self-confidence comes from doing a thing over and over, regardless
of how you feel at the time or what mistakes you make. Sometimes
Spirit will speak to you, but you won't recognize that
fact until later. That is part of the practice - the
practice of becoming aware.
The acronym for Living in the Rhythm is LITR. Your life is
lighter, when you are Living in the Rhythm. To live that way,
you use Magic (or Miracles, if you prefer), Intuition and
Telepathy. Thereby, you have more MIT…you are mightier
in your life.
For example: I called a long-time client
the other day. When she answered, she said she had been thinking
about me strongly and wanted to talk. She didn't bother to
pick up the phone to call me, though, because she knew I would
call her. We have good Telepathy.
Lisa fills her work schedule by thinking of a client, knowing
they need to see her, and penciling their name into open spaces
in her calendar. When they call for an appointment, her secretary
inks in their name. She has developed excellent Intuition.
"At my office, we just rely on it now. I am booked so
far out, I now have to decide if I am willing to work an additional
day each week."
Another example of telepathy: Stephanie and
I were planning to meet for dinner at a particular restaurant
at 6:30 on a Tuesday evening. I knew it would take me only
about 7 minutes to get there, so I had planned to close my
office at 6:30 and leave. I was working at my desk when, looking
up at my computer clock, I noticed it was five minutes to
six. I decided to close my office earlier than planned, go
to the restaurant and have a glass of wine while I waited
for Stephanie.
The restaurant in question is located in a very busy shopping
center - often it is difficult to find a place to park.
But this evening, there was a place for me right in front!
As I pulled into the space, someone was emerging from the
car right in front of me: It was Stephanie, and she was smiling.
"I see you got my message. I didn't bother to
call you from my car. There was no traffic." Because
she consciously sent me the message telepathically, and I
got it, we both arrived at the same time - twenty minutes
early.
Magic and Miracles are the unexpected goodies you get from
life, to enjoy with gratitude and delight.
An example: Chris has been practicing LITR for several
years. Recently, she took her family with her to a convention
in Newport Beach California. The hotel was lovely. Their adjoining
rooms were beautiful, and had a remarkable view. Later they
realized they were on the concierge floor, so there was a
buffet of food and drinks available, 24 hours a day (as well
as 24-hour room service). All the convention guests were staying
at this hotel. But no one had an ocean view like Chris did,
and no one else from the convention had been booked onto the
concierge floor!
A tool for developing your telepathy: I call this tool "Telephone
Telepathy." When the phone rings, wait before you answer.
Ask Spirit, "Who is calling?" And let the answer
come. Let the phone ring up to three times; if you do not
have the name of the caller, answer anyway. Keep asking the
question. You will get better and better at knowing the caller.
After a time, you will also know that the phone is about to
ring. This is very helpful, especially when you are about
to walk out the door! When you know someone is going to call,
you can wait for the phone to ring.
Also, you may "suspect" the caller is someone
you do not want to talk with, and you can let your voicemail
take the call.
Another advantage of telephone telepathy: As with the examples
above, you can think about someone, and just let them call
you!
What you focus on, you get more of, so make brief notes on
your questions and your answers, pay attention as to how the
answers come to you. You are in a learning process and therefore
all information regarding your process is valuable. By taking
the time to write, you are focusing your mind on the subject,
you are developing your communication with Spirit.
