One of the most common challenges my clients face is wanting something to happen so badly that they lose their confidence and faith that what they want will ever actually happen. Often times, they give in and settle for something less than ideal, or even worse, they completely give up.
Be open to all possibilities….
Recently, my close friend was having trouble finding an apartment in New York City. Though she loved her current apartment, she needed a spare bedroom so that her daughter could stay with her. She looked at apartments to rent for many days, but none fit her for various reasons.
The doorman of her NYC office building offered her and other staff members to see the near total eclipse from a penthouse that was undergoing construction.
While there, she noticed an adjacent, seemingly empty apartment in the same building. She peeked in, fell in love and badly wanted with this two-bedroom apartment above her office that overlooked Central Park. Sadly, the monthly cost was much higher than what she had planned to pay for rent.
She gave up on the idea of living in this particular apartment and carried on looking for more suitable and reasonably priced accommodations. The more she looked around, the more she wanted that exact apartment she stumbled upon on eclipse day.
When she followed up a few weeks later, she discovered that an offer was pending on the apartment. She released her hold once more and carried on with the tiresome pursuit. She couldn't get the apartment out of her head, and she had a strong conviction that it was "for her."
Keeping the faith….
After a few more weeks, she received word that the previous deal had fallen through. The apartment was back on the market! Even though the requested price was still beyond her means, she chose to apply and made an offer that she could realistically afford, saving a few hundred dollars in case they wanted to negotiate.
They returned in just twenty-four hours with a counter offer. She knew it was still too high a price for her, so she held herself back once again and believed what was meant to be, would be. She trusted that either a better apartment would come to her or the one she fell in love with would be the right price.
I urged her to make one final offer with a letter outlining her love for the unit and the actual maximum she could afford, and shockingly….they accepted!
By releasing control, and letting the flow carry us, we can actually gain more clarity and control of a situation.
Are you willing to loosen the grip on whatever you might be trying to control and be open to all the possibilities that are waiting for you?
I know that the end result will be better than you could have ever imagined?
