…because I’d like to club them behind the head…or at least be
slightly rude to them so they can rightfully feel ashamed of their
misrepresentation!

Maybe learning to manifest what you want is supposed to be easy, but it sure wasn’t for me.  I learned about the concept of creating what you want through the Teaching of Abraham (tm).   A
jolly bunch of teachers after my own heart.  One thing was always sure
when I went to an "Art of Allowing" seminar, I was in for some serious
laughs.

Which really help get the pill down.  Because it’s one major swallow.
Even though the concepts behind the process of Manifestation have been
around for a long long time (such as in the book "Think ans Grow Rich",
1937) and have been proven to work by successful people all over the
place, it’s still a big jump for the mind. 

And that’s where I
tripped:  My mind was balking at the considerable mental gymnastics
required to use these principles.  I guess that’s probably how people felt when someone suggested that the
Earth is round (about 2500 years ago).  A concept like that just takes
a while to sink in. 

Surprisingly, one of the big problems I ran into was an overwhelming
amount of information.  Just do a search in the net for Manifestation
or, the most popular term "Law of Attraction" and you’ll be deluged
with information. 

Wanting to get results as quickly as possible, I engulfed large amounts of data every day, for months: I had several
Abraham-Hicks tapes, I had the books, I did the exercises, I was in a
study group, I was online posting about it…

Until one day I threw it all up.  It was too much for my poor brain.
The concepts were so life altering that the gap I had to fill to get
there was humongous.  I had lived most of my life in misery, with one
catastrophe after another.  My friends would call this the "Elise Saga",
when referring to my life. 

In order to turn that ship around, I had to
exert fantastic amounts of time and energy (and money!).  And it was all
too much, too fast.  So I decided Manifestation didn’t work and threw
away my books.

So yeah, Manifestation was really hard for me in the beginning.  And yet, dammit, it worked.
I DID get what I wanted, even if it often took a long, long time.
There were also times when everything lined up perfectly and it felt
like overnight magic. 

That’s probably what kept me going, and got me to come back after the big throw up.  The results.
Not only in the physical stuff, but also in my day to day level of happiness.
After all, the reason why we want the stuff is because we want to be
happy…

I spent decades being miserable, oh maybe 85% of the time…Now, I’m
happy 85% of the time.  It’s funny to me how some people think that because I’m intuitive, I always know what to do and it ensues that I’m
always happy.  Heck no!  It’s true that I typically know what to do next, but
sometimes that seems to impossible, or so far away or so plain weird that I
get down too.  But those down don’t last more than 24 hours anymore and they
don’t seem to happen as often as they used to.

It’s certainly not the 100% blissful life that I’ve seen advertised on
some of those Manifestation and Law of Attraction programs.  But at
least it’s based on reality as I’ve experienced it. 

I think learning to follow your Intuition and learning to manifest can
be tough (for some of my clients, it’s a piece of cake…I’m so
jealous!), but considering the alternatives (i.e. continuing with a life
of random crap and occasional victories), it’s totally worth it for me.

I also think that it’s always easier to find the shortest path when
you’ve arrived and you’ll looking back on your tracks.  Throughout my
work with Intuition, I took some amazingly long detours.  Like that
phase where I was so overwhelmed with information that I ended up
throwing it all up.  Never again! 

Now that I do have a good
process that works, I can look back and see the quicker route I could have taken… 

Maybe, years from now, the Applied Intuition Program
will be known as an efficient shortcut to help us bridge the gap
between our current reality and our goal to become deliberate creators,
as comfortably as possible.  That sure is why it was created.
