Be Specific!

Calgary, ABSingle mom to a teenager boy, and learning that life gets better every day.
I’ve discovered that being absolutely clear on what you want to attract, is… kind of important!
My color printer/scanner gave up the ghost on me a few months ago, and since then I’ve been in need of a new printer. What I really wanted was another color printer with the scanner feature as well, but I didn’t get specific at all! I simply said, “I need a printer,” and left it at that. I “put it out there” and went on with life.
Well, a printer came into my life. A neighbor of a friend mentioned he had a printer and asked if I knew anyone who needed one. “Me!” I said, thinking about The Secret. So, I have a printer alright. But it’s black and white only, no scanner, and it doesn’t attach with a USB cable, which is what I really needed.
I had to laugh and shake my head at myself. My absolute faith in the Law of Attraction was firmly in place, but I just wasn’t quite specific enough. I’ll know better next time!
I was very clear though when I asked for the money to cover a few bills this month and have some left over to buy my son some new running shoes – I was very clear on how much I needed ($300), and got what I asked for ($280), the very same day that I asked for it. Give or take $20? That’s not a big deal to me!
Avoid learning the hard way like I did. Be Specific!
