How to Eat an Elephant

[Shawn Audlin]

Mindy and I have a daughter named Jenna that is almost two now. She is at the stage where she continues to ask more and more questions. I love to see how she absorbs information and then tries to make sense of it all. I get a lot of "Daddy what's this song?", and she'll pick something up and ask "Daddy what's this for?" As I think back to when I was young one of the questions that confused and delighted me was, "How do you eat an elephant?" Do you remember the answer? "One bite at a time." Its amazing how much wisdom lies in that answer.

I've found that when I envision something that I desire through the What If Up process, there are forces that will come together to help me, some seen and others unseen. But I found that taking action is a very small piece in helping manifest my desire. Because if the feeling isn't there then the actions I take may not be beneficial. There are infinite ways the Universe brings things into our life. So I now balance action with feeling. I keep What If Upping the idea, I keep it in my thoughts, in my feelings, which lets me imagine it clearer....and better...and bigger, until you feel so good that the thing I'm envisioning must show up physically in my life.

So how do you eat an elephant?

One thought & one feeling at a time...Yum!
