Creating with our thoughts 2

Just curious to see what people think as most (me included) seem to believe that we can and do create our reality with our thoughts. Do you think that when you want to create something in your life you should concentrate on one thing or the bigger picture. As an example dh and I often visit a favourite place on the coast in Wales and lately I have begun to think it would nice to live in or within the vicinity of this particular place. I've thought about trying to create this want with my thoughts but I wonder what others think as to whether I should just concentrate my thoughts on the area I want to live in, the type of house I'd like to live in, the house and the area or should I be concentrating on the bigger picture such as how it is going to happen i.e. finding employment there for all of us etc. Whilst I believe we create with out thoughts I've never actually conciously tried to create before and so I'm unsure exactly what I should be doing. Also should I start with little things and work my way up the bigger things?

I've found that what you visualize depends on what you want. If all you really care about is being in that area, then focus more on the area. If the type or size of the house is important to you, visualize those details too. If there's something very specific that you want, visualize it exactly as you want it.
As an example, with my first child I asked only for (and visualized) a quick labor. I got my quick labor alright. But it went so quickly that Baby got stuck and I wound up in an emergency c-section. With Baby #2 I kept visualizing how I'd handle differently all the things that had gone wrong with Baby #1. Well duh, I'd put all that energy into those things going wrong so they did. Lesson learned. With Baby #3 I repeatedly visualized the entire labor and delivery right down to what the doctor said to me. Don't think I didn't get goosebumps when it happened exactly as I'd pictured it, right down to what the doctor said.
My point is, you'll get what you ask for. So included anything that's at all important to you. If you don't specify, the Universe will choose for you.
HTH!
in my mind where I would live after i sold my house and I am here.
The small visualizations seem to work for me, the big one like I am
doing to bring in the man, talk to him every day etc. They never work
but the time is not up yet. See yourself where you want to be. love, leila
Figure out what you do.
Act as if it's already there.
By concentrating on one thing the universe doesn't get mixed signals.
Don't keep changing your mind. If you know that you want to live there, picture it in your mind's eye and BE THERE. When you are there, picture where you want to work, and BE THERE. What do you want the feeling to be? BE THE FEELING. Get it?
Concentration is what is going to get you there. Stay focused. There's no room for doubt, which makes it the hardest thing to do. You don't really know if you have it in you to create, so it creates doubt, thus changing your mind. When this happens, push these thoughts aside and get focused again.
Good Luck,

Working with magic takes time and practice. You first have to access the power within yourself, then figure out how to connect it to the power of the Universe and within Nature that surrounds you. It's learning to focus and concentrate, to direct thoughts in a one-pointed direction, to accomplish what it is you want.

Hi, Carol ~
I focus on the big picture.
but if I keep that thought I become less happy without one,
so I change the thought to my life is just fine with or without
a man, let God take care of what is to be. So then I find all that
is great about my life alone so I must be giving mixed messages,
can't the universe read my heart, isn't the universe smart enough to
know that I have to make it really good alone because it could always be like this?
love, Leila
This may sound like semantics, but I recently heard a speaker on this very subject, and one of the important things he stressed was not using the word "want" in visualizations.
I think the universe (God) is smart enough, but it's kind of like a genie in a bottle. "Ask and you shall receive" but you are kind of asking and kind of not. The genie wouldn't know whether to come out or not. (Just an analogy :))
I used to think the same way about men. I want one, I'm not getting one right now, so I'll put up this wall of protection around myself so I don't have to deal with the pain of not having it.
God apparently has something in store for you or you wouldn't be reaching out. Until you meet Mr. Right, try not to focus on the fear of never getting one. You are fine and perfect just as you are, and you're going through all this for a reason. Maybe preparation? Waiting is the hardest part, just like the song, but you'll be much better for it. Learn as much as you can about yourself right now, grow in your strength, be whole right now, because you are.

You are to say "I desire", or "I am" (then what it is you're talking about.) Also, give a prayer of thanks, that puts it into motion, because your acting as if you already have it.
It's a mind thing. Then just be done with it. Go about your day, do the same tom. and the day after that until you get it in the physical.
