Visualize each step and even what it looks like and feels like, until you are in miracle range to seize the opportunity.
In his book, “You Owe You,” he says we can attract our own miracles and he talks about putting ourselves in miracle territory.
For example, If you want to work for a specific company, you start doing research, you get to know the organization and the background of the people there. What do they do and how did they land their jobs? You study the job openings and job requirements. You improve your miracle chances by acquiring the skills you need or earning the degree that qualifies you. Your miracle may require you to relocate to a different city, or join new organizations or make friends already in the industry. You want to put yourself on a collision course with your miracle.
And yes, sometimes miracles happen without doing the work. “People win lotteries all the time,” you might say. “Princes fall in love with commoners,” and “Relatives that no one’s ever heard of leave you money.” Sure, this can happen. Thank you, Aunt Nancy! But as the Arizona Lottery reminds us, “You can’t win if you don’t play.” So, becoming qualified to be a player in the game of life requires work and it also puts us in miracle territory.
Thomas says, “There’s a ripple effect when you exercise your gifts,” he writes. “The ripples get bigger and bigger until they become waves. These waves and even the ripples are miracles.”
If you want to get in the way of miracles, here are some of his suggestions:
- Put yourself in places where a miracle could happen, like where the people hang out that you want to work with.
- Identify the opportunities you would like to receive and make a list of what it would take to get there.
- Start building your path toward your next miracle. Visualize each step and even what it looks like and feels like, until you are in miracle range to seize the opportunity. FBN
