Allow and Prosperity Follows
Eva Gregory
I knew the problem was bigger than me, so it followed that the solution was too. It was huge. Not in complexity, but in understanding.
My life partner, Robin, and I ran a software company in California, and it was leaking money like the proverbial sieve. For more than five years, we’d been searching for backing to help us launch the fantastic software program we’d patented—but to no avail. We were laying off staff, not paying ourselves in order to retain the crew, and morale was not just low, but nonexistent. Creditors were after us personally, as well as for the business. Our stress level was incredibly high.
I’d recently stumbled upon a universal principle called the Law of Attraction. Although I’d been studying metaphysics for years, as I found it extremely compelling, I only understood it intellectually. I really did not understand how to apply it to my life until I discovered the Abraham-Hicks website (www.Abraham-Hicks.com). I had a major aha moment. It was as though the light bulb came on, the fireworks went off, and I finally really got it!
Basically, the Law of Attraction states that whatever you are focused on you will get more of, whether wanted or not. But what I realized is that it is the emotion—the emotional charge you have on whatever you’re focused on—that will magnetize to you more of the same. You can imagine where my focus had set up residence over the last five years: “We don’t have enough funds.” “We can’t make the payroll.” “We will lose the business.” I had been focusing on exactly what I did not want more of in my life!
The engine of my thoughts was driven repeatedly by what was lacking in my life, and it was highly charged with negative emotion. I was carrying the emotional fuel that was magnetizing even more of what I did not want into my existence. And I had taken it to the ultimate level. Everyone within the company picked up on that vibration, and it grew to gargantuan proportions.
Once I grasped the principle, I felt I had nothing to lose by introducing the concept to the rest of the company. In order to change the vibe of the company by shifting our emotions, I created a company-wide game with a huge spreadsheet called the Prosperity Account, based on The Prosperity Game, a process I’d learned about through Abraham-Hicks Publications. We played this as a team.
The game went like this. On Day One, $10,000 was deposited into the account, and everyone in the company was asked to post to the spreadsheet how the funds would get spent. Each day the account was increased by an additional $1,000, so $11,000 was deposited on Day Two, $12,000 on Day Three, and so forth. After a bit, I was surprised to see how generous people were being. Since there was no fear of the funds dwindling, department members were making purchases for other departments besides their own. The money in our imaginary Prosperity Account was flowing, and we were actually having some fun for the first time in a long while. The goal of the game was to get our focus on something that felt better, something better than we’d been feeling for a very long time.
It worked. Overall, the company energy shifted, and many of us began to look forward to coming to work again.
What I’ve come to learn is that the Universe doesn’t know if what we are focused on is real or imaginary. It only picks up on the essence of where we are focusing our energy and thoughts, and assumes it’s real. So, as far as the Universe was concerned, prosperity was our reality. The Prosperity Account exercise showed me that no matter what I spent my money on within a given day, there would always be more in the account the next day. Therefore, I was able to stop thinking of lack and living in lack, as there was always an abundance of monetary flow. The exercise taught me to stretch my wealth mentality—a valuable lesson that must be learned in order to allow prosperity to follow.
And follow it I did. Within nine months of launching the Prosperity Account exercise, we were approached to sell the company—lock, stock, and barrel. We went from living from no paycheck to no paycheck (as Robin and I were not always collecting one for ourselves) to successfully selling the business for a hefty sum of money. Why? Because we were in a good place mentally, and we were able to see the opportunity for what it was and act on it!
Learning about the Law of Attraction and actually experiencing how it works was the most transformational turning point in my life. I learned that the difference between feeling hopeful and feeling fearful is the difference between success and failure. Fearfulness was not a good feeling. By using the Prosperity Account, I found a way to grab onto thoughts that made me feel better, which produced the key monumental shift. If one has to choose between feeling bad and feeling good, what is the logical choice? Seems a simple choice, though not necessarily easy, depending on your belief systems and where you’ve been focused over time. And yet, it can be both simple and easy. I just had to let go of my old way of doing things and embrace a new way. |
