Read all the posts in my <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Law of Attraction in Action Series<\/strong><\/a> to see how.<br \/>\nHow badly do you want things? You might think that if you want something VERY much that it will create a stronger vibration for manifesting. But, that can send a message of neediness for what you want, which translates into desperation to the Universe. The neediness can come across as negative, and create a negative vibe that the Law of Attraction responds to.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a BIG difference between creating excitement about getting what you desire and letting that desire consume you in a way that not getting it fast will make you unhappy. Picturing your goal becoming real with enthusiasm helps you get it, as long as you trust that it will come at the right time. If not having the need met quickly creates negative emotions, that\u2019s the vibe you put out. If you NEED that desire to come to pass so badly that you don\u2019t know what you\u2019ll do if it doesn\u2019t, you\u2019ll probably find out what will happen if it doesn\u2019t.\u00a0 The Law of Attraction will bring you more neediness.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you believe that you need a romantic partner, that need can be so intense that you base your happiness on it. If you don\u2019t find a romantic partner in the time frame you desire, you might get depressed, sad, and desperate for someone. That attracts more depressed feelings, sadness, and desperation instead of the person you want. Neediness indicates not having faith that you\u2019ll get what you want when the time is right. And chances are, you\u2019ll continue to be alone, or get involved with people who aren\u2019t good for you, because your neediness will attract more neediness for the right person instead of meeting that person.<\/p>\n<p>If you want something to the point of your life will be miserable without it, you\u2019re desperate. And desperate always creates a negative vibration for the Law of Attraction to work with. As you learn to love yourself more and find ways to make yourself happy, your needs will become healthier. As your faith strengthens, so will your patience to wait for want you want with anticipation instead of neediness. Then you\u2019ll manifest more of what you want.<\/p>\n<p>See all the posts in my Law of Attraction in Action Series <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<br \/>\n***************<\/p>\n<p>Join the <a href=\"http:\/\/howdoiloveme.com\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Self-Love Movement<\/strong><\/a>!

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start &amp; Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3992","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3992"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3992\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3994,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3992\/revisions\/3994"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3992"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3992"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3992"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
