Just Claim It!

In the words of the prophet SpongeBob SquarePants, "I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready!" I'm ready to take life on, to step into my greatness, to answer the call to soar as I serve. You see, it's my dream to speak and sell books for a living. I want to share with the world all that I have learned about love and relationship, about how to transform addictive "love" to personal power, how to attract and keep the love of your life, and how to heal from a breakup and keep your heart open to love, all of which I know a lot about.

Then it hit me. I don't have to doubt that I can have the desires of my heart. I CAN. You see, when I look back over my life everything that I've ever wanted has come to me and largely they have materialized without my doing anything except: nurse the desire to have them. A case in point.

About three weeks ago I told my teenage daughter Adia, "I really want to fly first class." Though I am scheduled to fly to San Juan next week, I was pretty sure I was flying coach, not first class, because my budget could only afford coach. Well, last week I called U.S. Air to make my reservation. "On the flight back," says the customer service rep, "you'll be in first class."First class?" I repeated. "It's cheaper than coach," she added. Wow! Another answered prayer.

Another example of the power of desire and feeling deserving: I've been thinking I'd sure like to get a lower interest rate on my mortgage. Well, I started getting letters from a mortgage company offering just that. I spoke with a representative then checked them out with the Better Business Bureau. Still, I didn't act. Then I got another letter, the "Final Notice" they said. Then it occurred to me that once again my prayer was being answered. I gathered my paperwork and faxed them to the loan officer yesterday. The process has begun.

This same principle works regardless of the desire. I wanted to ramp up my fitness program. Soon after I had the thought I was invited to join a boot camp. It also works equally as well in love. Even though in recent years I've not felt so lucky in love, still I believed there was a man out there just right for me. Last year this time when a relationship folded that I thought would last I affirmed, "I deserve better treatment than this" as I held fast to the belief that my right and perfect partner is coming to me. Well, I have fallen in love with a man so easy to love; he's fun, thoughtful, affectionate, spiritual, forward thinking, communicative and some more good stuff. He and I will be bringing in the New Year together.

The doubt is gone. What I seek seeks me. I claim it! I am serving humanity through my writings, books, and talks. I am living my dreams!

So, what are you claiming in 2011? Know this, whatever your heart desires and you believe is possible for YOU will magically come to you. Give thanks!

Love & Light, DeBora
