Worries: Just as Powerful as Intentions

I read a very compelling bit of philosophy a few weeks ago. I cannot remember the source right now, but this man's theory took the Law of Attraction to a whole new level. What he asserts is that an Armageddon (of sorts, at least) will occur, not necessarily because it is foretold in The Bible, but because so many people all over the world expect it to. In other words, we will bring about our own destruction because we are expecting it, worrying about it, and wondering not if, but when it will happen. The end of the world is a self-fulfilling prophesy.

It's a very interesting (albeit disturbing theory), and it seems to logically follow that if you can attract what you want, you can also attract what you don't want. And now to the part about how all of this relates to selling your house. No matter how good your intentions to act with intent and be positive that your buyer is out there and that you are doing everything in your power to attract them, all of us have moments of doubt and worry. "We could be stuck in this house with no way out." "We might have to show this house 100 times before we find our buyers." Not good thoughts to have, especially if we take for truth that to a large extent our intentions bring about our reality. Try and focus on what you want to have happen, not on the fear of what might happen.

Because we are all human, it is natural to have some fears. When this happens to you, and it might, do not fight the thoughts. Rather, try and complete those worrisome thoughts with a positive outcome. Try to turn the worries into intentions for your sale. "We could be stuck in this house with no way out, but we won't be because everything we are doing is drawing our buyer to us." "We might have to show this house 100 times before we find our buyers, but every showing we have brings our buyers closer." Don't fight the negative thoughts. Just add to them and turn them into positive intentions to sell that house.
