Does it get easier the longer you live according to LOA?

It doesnt matter where you are going--you will always end up somewhere marvelous as long as you follow what feels GOOD!

A dear friend recently asked me: Does living life this way get any easier once you realize that you are in control and can consciously direct your life by using your thoughts? I thought i would share my answer with you all here--because i think MANY people read books on the law of attraction and the processes and they may for a brief time, apply them, or work HARD at them, and then, slip back into old habits--and i am telling you--its WORTH the effort to pick out a few simple processes and make them second nature--the pay offs in joy are vast and limitless...so, below, my answer!

----------------------------------------------------

A: i liken it to a car...you learn to drive, and there are so many different things that you have to constantly think about as you learn--safety, trust, physical actions etc...and it can get awkward...but after a while--with practice, and faith in yourself--its second nature--and you are not even really thinking about the actions of driving the car...you get in--decide where to go--map your route and bam...you are there...you can also decide to go with the flow--or sit in traffic...

i think for me--the ulitmate point of "getting it" was to HAVE faith that it REALLY is the way of life--and that the laws are true for me...And i got to that point by playing with it--starting small with things that seemed insignificant--and as i saw more and more miraculous little manifestations, my faith grew--i have always lived my life following my joy--but i didnt consciously apply these types of teachings until i was blessed to come across the work of Esther and Jerry Hicks and the teachings of Abraham, that brought me such tremendous alignment and "reinforcement" that the way I had been living was working for me, and WORKING for me-effortlessly, if i just followed my joy...

when i took that leap of faith, because it really is a leap--as everyones reality is the sum of their thoughts and it has to be true for YOU...when i just trusted, my intuition, my inner guidance and my SELF...then it all flowed...

now, when my emotional guidance system, or my GUT tells me something is not in alignment, i quickly get back on track...and thats so easy to do if you just listen to your inner voice and follow along to what will bring you joy--or what will bring you relief...

and thats also a practice issue--because lets say, in the past you got into hot water--you had to really KNOW it was HOT before you pulled your hand away--now, you can feel it getting warmer--reevaluate and get it back into line with what feels GOOD...

If you practice living in accordance with the law of attraction, pretty soon it becomes second nature....that does not guarantee a completely joyful and smooth existence! no sirreee bob--and its then that you relish the contrast in the stream and the bumps and starts--cause you know that spiritual growth and expansion is on the horizon--you will KNOW that you cant get it wrong and you never get it done--and so, you just flow into another adventure...having confidence that you will emerge on the other side of whatever obstacle YOU (from your non-physical perspective) put in your own way along your path....with an expanded perspective of the physical world and an expanded spirit...

its SOOO delicious! give it a try--it WICKED ROCKS!!! :)
