You're right, it can work for small and big stuff. And focusing on what you don't want often gets you more of what you don't want. That's why, as you know, it's so very important to be clear about and focus on what we <strong>do</strong> want. Hi, Ruth! You’re right, it can work for small and big stuff.

I'm so glad to see you here. Thank you for your kind & encouraging words. Congratulations on your book sale. That's exciting! Getting clear & setting intentions are, indeed, powerful tools. No guarantees & they do improve the odds. BTW, I have a "real" magic wand, too. It might have been way more expensive than yours, like $5. :) And it is one of the best, best, best presents my husband ever gave me. 15 or so years later, it still makes me smile. Hi, Kelly!

Even if what you focus on is something you 'don't' want; you'll get it. I have seen this working in my life for the last couple of years. I have a hard time focusing on what I want instead of thinking about what I don't want, but it makes all the difference in the world. Wherever your focus is, is what comes to you. It's very hard at first because I had been raised to just take whatever comes; boy was I surprised to find out you don't have to live that way! The first time it worked for me was driving to work. I frequently get tailgated since I drive on small streets with a 25 or 30 speed limit. I just thought about having a bubble around my car that no other vehicle could penetrate; and it worked. It's funny to see someone right on my bumper; conjure up the 'bubble'; and watch them fall back. It's such a little thing, but so wonderful to know it works for little things as well as big things.

I actually have a "real" magic wand. It was 99 cents on clearance at the party store. I am learning to get clear, set my intention, and oh my gosh - it works. I had a small speaking gig and decided that morning that I would sell ten books. And yes, I sold ten books. That is one small example that you are right. It works. Thank you for sharing your light with the world. Bonnie- I am savoring my 40s but I love your stuff, your insights, and your attitude. I actually have a “real” magic wand.
