I've had messages from a few people, about feeling that everytime things start to go well, something "bad" happens, and I thought I'd post my answer here for others who may be feeling the same.
For many of us, there's often an over-riding impression of a cycle of "Just when things start to go right, they're always followed by bad" - or as someone recently put it, more asthetically challengingly: "I am so happy and gratefull that I get my a** saved just in the nick of time so I can **** myself all over again at the next drama."
This is completely understandable, and I know most of us have that feeling. It's exactly how I felt, and how so many people I speak to feel. And it feels that way because that's what it looks like - that's what physically seems to be happening..... or is it?
What came first, the chicken or the omlette? ... Okay, let me rephrase that.... If a dog is chasing his tail, who's following who? What I mean is, does the bad follow the good, or does the good follow the bad? Every time someone helps me up, I get knocked down again.... or everytime I get knocked down, someone helps me up again? Every time something goes wrong, somehow, I get myself out of it. Now..... if you're like me (and I suspect you might be a little
you'll be thinking "Well that's all very niiiiiiiiiiice (excerpt from The Secret) but I'd like to not get into those situations where I have to rescue my self by the skin of my nails at the last moment!" 
And you'd be absolutely right. What's happening, I believe, is that when we create or attract something into our lives that appears to be "bad", we immediately go into "super hero" mode. We immediately kick into "fixing" gear. Whether it's fighting, or solving or writing letters, or searching for solutions, lots of action, or even just thinking about it. We have a built in urge and compulsion to "fix" at once.
Even if we don't immediately spring into action (although we probably usually do), our minds get into that gear. And that gear grates against the steering wheel (okay, I'm not good at mechanical analogies
but you know what I mean) because the car is being led in a different direction to the one we think.
So then the whole car starts whobbling around, we end up in a ditch, we get ourselves out, disguised as the AA, and we get back on the road.
Then, we see, what appears to us to be, a boulder right in the middle of the road
so we spit and swear, and our mind kicks into "fix" gear, and the vibration of the "fix/solve/fight" mindset, again grates with the steering, and off we go again, whobbling and swerving, and this time we may even roll it.
What we don't know is that the boulder was an illusion - an optical illusion - or just a shadow. But it looked EXACTLY like a boulder - could have sworn it was a boulder. So it's pure instinct and natural for our minds to see a boulder, and stall mentally, and get into "fix" mode. "How can I get around the bolder" And the vibration of that mind-set messes with the satalite navigation system! (hmm, that may describe it better )
And so the viscious circle continues. And we think that every time the car gets back on the road, something goes wrong. And we don't look so much at the fact that every time we screw up the navigation and steering with our reaction to illusions, and the car goes off the road, we manage to arrange a last minute rescue opperation through our contacts in the AA
So what's the answer? Well, I've discovered that no matter what something looks like. No matter how convincing the boulder is, if I trust, and leave the driving up to the driver who happens to have a seat on the roof of the car (okay, I'm struggling a bit here with this analogy, but I'm sure you know what I mean lol), because he can SEE the boulder for what it really is - that's HIS job - I have found that EVERY time - REGARDLESS of how Clever and Convincing the Illusion, EVERY time, it has turned out to be either not what I thought, or the boulder has been removed without my trying to "fix" it myself.
It still takes me by surprise!! I still don't believe it sometimes, and start getting into "fix" mode, but then I remember, and I remind myself "I can only create and attract situations and people that make me feel good, and that are good for me. So no matter what this looks like, I know it HAS to turn out to be fine." And time after time, I'm shocked and surprised at just how weird the coincidences and synchronicities and unexpected offers etc. that turn up in time!!
If you KNOW (and I'm not saying you do, I'm just saying If you know that Father Christmas doesn't exist. So, let's say you KNOW that there's no way Father Christmas exists. When you see what looks like Father Christmas - no matter how convincing, or how fleet-footed his reindeer, you KNOW it can't be Father Christmas, it HAS to be an actor, stunt man or crazy person.
If you KNOW you can't create "bad" for yourself, no matter how "bad" it looks, you KNOW it has to be an illusion, misunderstanding, or misinformation - or that it will be solved without your "high-ho silvering"
Now, many people (and I used to as well) say "Oh, something good will come from this." And that's not what I'm talking about. That is essentially acknowledging that this is bad, but something good will come from it, or "There's always a reason." And, while that's better than just focusing on the bad, it is still misleading.
The point is: You are Incapable of attracting or creating "bad". It only LOOKS like bad - and it's very convincing - like brilliant special effects. And if you then see it as bad, and you try to "fix" it, then the repercussions of that are "bad".
It's like a horror movie. Someone goes to see "Jaws", and their entire body reacts as if they're in danger. Hearbeat increases, sweaty palms,
adrenaline rush etc. The only thing stopping them from running screaming into the street, is their conscious mind - which knows it's a movie. But the rest of the body has no idea what a movie is!! It's busy doing its fight or flight thing.
Illusions of something "bad" come up, and we "fight or flight" out into the street - sometimes screaming And then we run under a bus.
And then we arrange for a kind stranger to pick us up, and we're grateful for that, but for Goodness' sake, can't we just not get hit by the bus?? Well, yes, we could just stay in the cinema and trust our subconscious that it will never allow us to be harmed - it knows it's just a movie
