Cleaning The Closets Of Our Lives

“We have thought that outside things controlled us, when all the time we have had that within which could have changed everything and given us freedom from bondage.” Science of Mind, pg 295
 
“Law of Attraction always yields to you the essence of the balance of your thoughts.  No exceptions.”  Ask And It Is Given, pg 73
 
What is that thing that is within us that is so powerful that our very freedom or bondage lies in the balance?  The power of our thought.
 
Today you are going to come upon something that you wish to change.  Pretend it is this desire for a clean and organized closet.  When you think about the closet and clutter, what happens?  

Usually we negate the good feelings and we chastise ourselves for not getting to done sooner… we start to feel really bad and we ‘mind-whip’ ourselves for letting it get so out of hand and then the phone rings, and we are off on another tangent, forgetting about the closet.  Until the next time…
 
In the moment that you think of cleaning the closet, you put out a desire for it to be clean and organized, then you proceed to beat yourself up for not having done it, making false promise about doing it and then you distract your thought to something else to forget about it.  
 
Try this next time.  Notice the closet (oh here we are again!) and you change your mind and affirm that in truth, empty; it’s a perfectly clean closet!  

Affirm how much you love it when closets are cleaned and organized and then do ONE THING to make it so.  If you can take the time right now to do some cleaning and organizing, great.  If not, schedule a half hour to do so in the immediate future.  
 
See how great that can work for you! What else can you apply that to?
 
I go forth looking at the tiny things I want to change and then make small changes for the good.
