Belief is often said to be a deal-breaker. Even in cases where the author says you don't need to believe to get results, my experience is that the results achieved can be affected in the sense of them "not sticking". Getting an interview for the perfect job is not the same as getting the perfect job, having sex once is not the same as having the relationship of your dreams, a wish seemingly unrelated can affect another, and so on.
So...
1) How do you guys make sure results "stick"?
2) How do you guys make sure your subconscious doesn't get in the way somehow?
Especially for people with low self-esteem, getting and keeping good results can be hard. NLP and affirmations only go so far (at least for me), and even when I don't think beforehand whether something is in my "Sphere of Availability" ("Decision Space", etc), in the end, looking back, my results often are quicker when they are within my current reality. Asking that a girl I haven't seen in months get in touch with me can take a minute to a day. Asking to meet my perfect dream girl who looked like so-and-so took 3 years.
Regardless of what I want to believe, feasibility still affects my results.
I have no luck feeling any presence or getting any real answer from MM or the pendulum, so I'm asking you guys for feedback.
What do you guys recommend?
