An example: you're low on cash, but always wanted to get a car: a nice old honda civic would do great. One day, out of the blue, you hear that you have won the first prize in a draw and would win a Ferrari!! Hell Yeah! You start making plans of what you're gonna do with that car! How you would show off in front of everyone! You're soaring high on your cloud right now!
But then, the very next day, it turns out you heard it wrong. You have actually won the 2nd price, an old honda civic. You're crushed! All those plans you made get spilled down the gutter! Your Expectations ruined the moment you actually got the car you've always planned for.
Anyway, let's get back to where we were: thoughts and visualisations. Once you grasp that notion, happiness would always be within your reach: What you want, wish for or even long for. But there also is the fact that what you want NOW, may not be what you will want when those events would actually unfold. Let's take another simple example (i like examples ^_^): A man wants a small cottage in the country side to live in peacefully, and always entertains that thought - empowers that thought. Eventually, he moves into the city, gets an amazing job, makes awesome new friends, and finds the love of his life. However, after some time, his job requires of him to move into a small cottage in the far-off countryside. He reluctantly does so, leaving his happy city life behind. This IS what he asked for, but it is not what he desires anymore.

But do it mindfully. Think positive. Know that thoughts coupled with strong feelings channel even stronger energy: get a grip on your emotions. And lastly, don't do it often. Focus on the present that you're living, and make your thoughts stay with you in the present. Enjoy all the random unforeseen moments in your lives, those are usually the best ones... even if they might not look like so now...
They always make an awesome tale to tell! :)
On this note, Aloha beautiful people!
