I was looking through some older posts and felt this one would serve any readers as well as it did a year ago. (A year ago!)

From my perspective as a life coach, it is important for me to be on a path of growth and to report in on my path of growth. The intimate nature of the coaching relationship and the “if Maia can do it, I can do it too” attitude I support my clients and readers with, I feel requires me  to do no less. So here’s the latest report on my path of growth:

• With a financial dive in 2001 in our background and from the perspective of a couple in their 60’s and 70’s as another reality, my husband and I have been reluctant to purchase a car. As a matter of fact, I think there’s been a little of hoping “the other shoe doesn’t drop” – particularly when there’s been something wrong with our 2000 Ford Focus. “What if we had to buy a car? What would we have to cut back on to make a payment? What if our credit isn’t good enough?” have been questions floating around in our heads.
• Tuesday was a very big day – for us all. This is how my Tuesday started out: I decided that a trip to a local store would work before my client call at 8 a.m. so off in the Ford Focus I went. I was driving south on Lincoln Blvd. coming to a stop behind a truck when the next thing I knew was – I hit the truck and simultaneously was smacked in the chest with the airbag. The airbag on the (empty) passenger side hit the windshield with such force that it smashed it. Other than surprise, the only other effect to me were the very minor injuries I sustained -  two teeny scabs on  knuckles, a mildly sore breastbone and a rapidly fading scrape from the seat belt on my neck.
• By Saturday we had a 2007 Ford Taurus in perfect condition, a totaled 2000 Ford Focus, an additional source of income and an offer of payout by the insurance company  tomorrow.

I learned:

• Not only is Law of Attraction operating at all times but sometimes the Universe provides the last little extra bit to make my dreams come true with tiniest little help given via a slight Universe-type kick in the butt.
• That I (and, I assume, you) need to experience the not getting what I want in order to give me an opportunity to work though my stuff and create the vibration I do want; i.e. feel that little tightness of anxiety over “Maybe we’ll need a new car” followed by positive self-talk, “Oh, no. You’re not going to take me down that fear path” followed by more positive self-talk, “You’ve never had lack and it’s not about to start now” followed by peace and serenity and acceptance or something like that.
• The reason the Law of Attraction is also sometimes called The Law of Allowing, is that it really is a defenses all down, allowing it (plug in ‘whatever you want’ for “it’)  to happen. It’s not putting up all that negative noise – thoughts, judgments, not deservings.

Of course, I don’t really know if that’s how it works, but it sure seems to be working like that in my life. How about you?
