Comments on Patience
In reply to a video someone made on practicing intention.

Experimenting with intention is a wonderful thing. At it’s best it is similar to a baby playing with no attachment to outcome of her play. The baby plays not to achieve and end result, but rather for the simple experience of it.
You mentioned patience and focus. I’d say that focus is a given, but your ability to attract things will increase when you leave patience behind. It’s not needed.
Patience is nothing more than a series of thoughts that says, “I will endure under these difficult circumstances.” Endure? Endure is only needed if the experience in itself does not bring joy. Basically, you wish shit was moving faster than it is.
The challenge with patience (and I realize that it is just a word) is that it has it’s own frequency - it’s own vibration of energy. And that vibration dims the vibration of your intention because it is attached to result. The whole power of intention is that like attracts like. Your internal world creates your external world.
So if not patience, then what? Acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean you don’t take action, it simply means you don’t resist. If something isn’t being attracted into your life, you don’t mentality resist wishing it would be another way. Instead, you keep your focus on the present moment.
Our mind is powerful tool and can do many amazing things. And even more powerful than the mind is the collective consciousness that runs the universe (call it God, or spirit, or what ever). That consciousness is way smarter than our individual intention… so if something isn’t attracting into your world that might be part of the plan.
Bring the attention to the present moment and pay attention not only to your own intentions, but the intentions of the universe that show up in the form of daily signs and gut feelings.
