What is it that allows the thing you desire to come into your experience? What is it that allows you to be in harmony with that experience? In the process of manifestation there is a need to examine your beliefs and thought processes as well as how what you're doing or not doing affects your ability to attract and sustain what you want in your life. The "shape" of your ideals, choices, schedule, life, etc. have to be able to accommodate the shape of your desired experience.

Recognizing the shape of things, in this case, is a metaphor for evaluating the quality and effectiveness of your actions or inactions. Does what you're doing and how you're doing it really allow the object of your desire to pass through into your experience? Does it allow it to stay there?Or does what you want get "stuck" on the way into your life because of square-peg-round-hole syndrome?

One way to examine the potential of your efforts to attract what you desire is to first name the five most crucial elements that define success in that endeavor. Whether you want a happy relationship or a business worth billions, what are those top five things you need to provide to nurture success in that area and allow those things to thrive? The second step is "simple." Support the nurturing process directly through your choices and actions.

When you successfully attract or manifest something, it is somewhat like having a bird come to feed on the little seeds you hold in your hand. What degree of attention, time, space, or care will you give your bird? It has to be enough to keep your bird alive, healthy and happy. A lesser amount simply won't do. It's one thing to attract, it's another thing entirely to allow something to come in and perch comfortably. How do you attract a bird in the hand? Keep your nurturing hand open and take good care of your bird!
