Life happens. Fecal Matter Happens. If you are alive on planet Earth, you will have times when contrast gets in your face. You may lose or not get a job, or your lover may leave you, or someone you really care about  may die. Life moves in cycles, and you can expect to experience some tough times on occasion. The only question is, what do you do about it? Instead of going crazy trying to figure out what went wrong, you can use the principles of the Law of Attraction to get a new perspective and to feel better. Once the fecal matter is bouncing off the fan, consider the following thoughts:

1. Everything is temporary. No matter how uncomfortable your experience is, it will only be your experience for a limited amount of time. Ride out how you feel, and let your feelings be your feelings. Own your experience as simply your experience. It is what it is. Soon everything will change to something else, and you can meet the new experience when it becomes your “now” experience. Until then, don’t worry. This, too, will pass.
2. Contrast creates desire. If you are really in a crappy situation, it means that you are asking for something better in a very, very powerful way. When you ask, Source Energy answers and expands and literally becomes the new condition you have asked for. This new condition is now available for you to align with, where before you had your crappy experience, it didn’t exist at all. So by not having what you want, you create something even better.
3. Don’t look back. Your experience of contrast creates a new vibrational reality, and you can’t be a match to the new condition by staying stuck in the old hurts. You must feel your negative emotions, but then let yourself feel better, and when you can, move on to the next experience. Remember that you can attract an even better experience by becoming a vibrational match to the new experience. This means being open to getting a better job, meeting an amazing lover, or coming to closure with the loss of a loved one.
4. Don’t play the blame game. If something didn’t go your way, you are human…period. Everything won’t go your way, so get over it. It isn’t someone’s fault. The Law of Attraction brings to you only experiences that match your average vibration, so nothing can happen to you unless you have invited into your experience. There is no Law of Assertion, so nothing can just appear in your experience that is not part of your average vibration created through your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Don’t blame. Just take responsibility for what happened, and pivot to the best thoughts you can find on the subject.
5. Bless the contrast. If you didn’t have crap striking the air conditioner, you wouldn’t have a dynamic, expanding experience to rendezvous with in your future. Your motion forward and your joy depend on this expansion.  Once you are done yelling and being angry for what has happened, be glad for the experience, and feel good about the joy that is on its way. Be grateful for who you are, where you have been, and where you are going. Give gratitude for this amazing Universe, and bless your varied experiences. Everything is a match. Relax and accept this fact, and gives thanks for the diverse experiences you get to have.

I have had enough contrasting experiences to realize that the new condition I created and eventually attracted was WAY better than the original disappointment I felt. A job I didn’t get was superseded by an incredible opportunity to do something much better, or a relationship that ended created the space for one that was 100 times more joyful. You just can’t know what is coming, but you can believe in the power of the Universe to bring you what you have created in your darkest moments. All is well, and if you are having a tough time today, breathe deeply, read this again, and know that your desires have been clarified and expanded. Help is on the way, and your success and joy is certain to return. May you enjoy this most amazing day! Chris-GP
