Question:

How will you know when your intended desire has been asked of the universe? What should you do while waiting for your desires to manifest? I am having trouble letting go, I feel like there has to be something for me to do in the mean time.

Answer:

Once you have put your intention out to the universe, it has been officially “asked.” In the meantime, the best thing you can do is get out of your own way, so that you aren’t impeding your fulfillment or demanding the terms upon which your intention is supposed to manifest.

Remember, at your core you share your essence with the infinite power and intelligence of the universe. Your limited self is actually asking your own non-local, unlimited Self for that knowledge and connection to the source that will bring it fulfillment. The entire process happens within you, within your consciousness. To help facilitate the awakening, don’t get fooled into thinking fulfillment is going to come from outside you or that it is all dependent upon how hard you  push to make things happen.

The real transformation is happening in the stillness of your heart, so trying to force a particular outcome will interrupt that process. This seems counter the common conception that we need to force our will upon life to get ahead, but in fact meaningful and balanced growth in life comes by attuning one’s awareness to the infinite power and wisdom of the cosmos.
