There is a current social media trend of using this powerful affirmation “I don’t chase, I attract. What belongs to me, will simply find me.” The power of this trend is to encourage people to step into their own power and give them a boost of confidence. It comes from a place of pure confidence, and belief that things maneuver their way to us.
Chasing
Confidence and chasing are two completely opposite energies. Chasing comes from a place of fear. Fear of losing someone or something, trying so hard, struggling, and feelings of insecurities coming to the surface. We act on our feelings which are a result of our thoughts (affirmations). Therefore, all the inner dialogue that we currently have is based on our inner state. Chasing is a low vibrational energy that indicates suffering and heightened anxiety. At some point, these thoughts and feelings become habitual that it feels hard to break. Dr. Joe Dispenza explained that repetitive patterns of thinking which generate feelings lead to the body and the mind becoming one.
“Your mind will be like its habitual thoughts; for the soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts. Soak it then in such trains of thoughts as, for example: Where life is possible at all, a right life is possible.”
— Marcus Aurelius
Confidence
Start asking yourself “what am I currently chasing and why?” and take note of the things, people, and places that you’re chasing. From there you create awareness on where your anxiety lies, and where it comes from. Chasing is repelling. Confidence is attractive. Take the chasing energy and switch it to confidence energy. Decide to stop chasing.
- Work on releasing the anxiety, and practice soothing yourself, this will remove the urge to chase, and you will be much happier.
- Build your confidence in yourself, and start believing in your capability to have anything in this life.
- Start believing that the Universe/God will deliver what belongs to you.
Live every day with that knowing, that things find you. That there is nothing to chase. You can relax and trust in that. Allow yourselves to take inspired actions solely, rather than try so hard to make things happen.
