Part III: If I knew then what I know now...

Woman sitting by lake meditating. — Sometimes you just need to relax...

...I wouldn’t be so scared that I had to be doing something to meet him right now or else someone else was going to find him first.

I would know that scarcity is a lie that we’re brought up with, but it’s not true. There’s always enough of everything if we believe it – even if we’re talking about men.

I remember that feeling.

It was a Saturday night and I knew the numbers all too well. There were more single women than men out there and I’d better get going if I was going to find one before someone else found him first!

And so was my life.

Feeling like every day I was getting older, feeling like everyone else around me had found their Mr. Right by now - except me.

Like if you’re feeling great about yourself, full of confidence that you really are all that, you’re going to find yourself attracted to that guy in front of you at the grocery checkout line.

But if you’re feeling down, feeling like you’re not all that, maybe you had a less than glowing job review, or you’re put on a few extra pounds that you’re not happy about, then the opposite holds true as well.

Loving couple sitting and hugging in the park. View from behind. — What would your life be like if you truly believed everything was going to work out perfectly?

I know what you’re thinking: It sounds like a cliché.

Just believe! It’ll happen. Just believe it and it’ll come true.

And while there are a lot of people out there who claim the power of believing in something, that it really works, I’m going to go a step further here and talk about the power of believing that I’m referring to.

The kind for us not so sure types that get so hung up on how to do it right that we end up not getting the point of it.

It’s not just the cliché you’ve heard so many times before. It’s the real thing.Continue Reading
