How To Make "Everything Happen In Your Favor"

This lesson dispels a huge misconception about manifestation that may be leading you to NOT feel like "everything is happening in your highest good." This is an idea that is extremnely prevelent in the spirituality and manifestation space, but often gets miscontrued. I provide 2 stories from my personal life on how I ensured that things were working out in the highest good of everyone involved rather than just sitting back and hoping for the best. Please feel free to share your own thoughts!

What do you do when you've had a spiritual awakening and you're like,

This is amazing.

I finally realized that I don't have to be doing what I'm told.

I have so much power.

I can create my own reality.

You start consuming all this content and you hear the phrase over and over again,

Everything is working out in your higher good.

Don't worry,

Everything is happening for you.

And you're like,

The heck it is.

Let's talk about it.

Hey guys,

Welcome to my channel.

My name is Katie and this is Katie Lynn Lives.

We talk about spirituality and holistic wellness here.

When I first had my spiritual awakening,

I was so relieved to know that I was in charge of my life,

That I was a co-creator with God,

That I didn't have to follow the path that I thought was given to me,

The path that was upsetting me,

The path that made me feel stuck.

And I could pursue something greater than myself.

I could tap into this inner knowing that I was meant for something more.

And what I did was I started watching all of these videos on YouTube and TikTok about spirituality and spiritual practices.

And a lot of these practices fall into the manifestation space.

And if you're not careful,

You can get sucked into this trap of all you have to do is think it,

And then it will come into fruition.

And when you start to believe this,

You go into a little bit of a psychosis.

I'm not even kidding.

You will start watching random tarot card readings that pop up on your suggested page or your For You page,

And you will believe them.

You'll say,

Yes,

This is for me.

I claim this abundance.

And then a day will go by,

A week,

Months will go by,

And you'll be like,

Why haven't I seen any type of change in my life?

Right?

I claimed it.

I thought it.

I believe it.

I tried to let it go.

I tried to meditate on it.

I tried to journal on it.

And what the heck isn't everything supposed to be happening for my highest good?

Well,

The fact of the matter is that manifestation is real.

You are a co-creator,

But the universe can only manufacture everything in your highest good if you take action on your intuition or if you take action on inspired ideas.

And so I want you to really start thinking about the dream life that you want to have,

The changes you want to make as being a combination of thought forms and external action.

Okay?

So when you put those two things together,

It's like the yin and the yang.

That creates the whole.

That is what gets manifested into reality.

It comes through you internally,

And then you act on it externally,

And then that thing comes manifested to life.

So I always teach that you want to imagine that you're creating from your heart space,

And I will create more content on the heart and the power of the heart,

Spiritually and physically.

But I want you to imagine that these ideas come into your head,

And that the physicality of you comes up through your roots,

And together you act from your heart space.

So I'm going to give you two examples on what I mean by this,

So that you can really take this home with you,

And you can actually start believing that everything is working out in your favor,

Because that's a choice that you've made.

Okay.

So my first example is pretty light-hearted.

The other day,

My boyfriend got a little bit of a head cold.

He said,

I'm going to come home early from work.

I would really appreciate it if you could make me some soup.

And I had already been like,

Okay,

I'm going to run the store.

I'm going to get some ingredients for some soup for him.

And when I was in the grocery store,

I was like,

I think I should pick up some butter.

Like,

I just had this feeling,

Like,

Get some butter.

And so I bought some butter,

And I come home,

I make the soup.

We have a good day.

He starts to feel a little better.

And he is like,

I would love to have some brownies.

I'm like,

Yes,

I know.

You shouldn't eat that much sugar when you are sick.

So I'm like,

Okay,

I'll make you brownies on the contingency that is sweetened with maple syrup or honey.

That has nothing to do with the story.

And I realized that we only had a little bit of butter left,

And the brownies called for a stick of butter.

And I thought to myself,

I would never have been able to help him,

To give him this soul food,

To serve him and care for him in the way that he asked me to,

If I hadn't already taken the inspired action of,

Okay,

I'm going to buy some butter.

I don't know why,

But I think I'm going to need it later.

Right?

And so when I was making those brownies,

I realized everything is happening in my favor.

I was able to go to the store and take care of my partner more wholly because I acted on that.

Now,

I could have just stayed at home and said,

No,

I'm not going to make you soup.

I could have run to a closer store and just bought a can of pre-made soup,

But I didn't.

I acted on what I felt in my gut,

And then I was able to live from a place that felt more wholesome.

So it's a really small example,

But there was that trigger in my physical reality,

Which was the butter that told me,

Hey,

What you did earlier was making life happen for you.

Okay.

My second story is a little more intense and a little more personal,

But I want to tell you because I think it's important.

So one of my closest friends,

My best friend,

Is going through an extremely challenging breakup.

And before this happened,

I went out with her and her sister,

And we were able to bond and have a good time.

And because of that,

I was thinking,

I think it would be a really good idea to make a group chat with my friend and her sister.

That way we could all talk together.

And I expressed this to my best friend.

She made the group chat,

And now that she's going through this really intense breakup,

Self and her sister are able to comfort and support her at the same time.

She's able to have a resource to go to when she's feeling really down.

And I know that if I hadn't taken the action to go out with her and her sister previously,

I would have never had had the intuitive idea to make the group chat with the two of them.

And we would not have been able to support her in the same manner.

So with that said,

You can see how there was a combination of an inner knowing and then acting on that thing,

Actually going out,

Actually making the group chat,

And allowing that to serve our highest good,

Serve her highest good and be able to support her.

And I want you to realize that I had the choice to not drive 40 minutes to an hour the first time I met up with them.

I had the choice to not listen to my intuition to make the group chat.

I had the choice to not even tell my friend about the idea to make the group chat.

And I did.

I did all of those things.

I took action on the thoughts and intuition that came to me and that allowed for more beneficial reality for the people around me.

So when you are battling with this idea of everything is happening in my highest good,

You need to ask yourself,

One,

Are you listening to your intuition?

Two,

Are you taking physical action on that intuition,

Whether that is a task that needs to be done or reaching out to another human being or just taking care of yourself?

And three,

Are you allowing the things that manifest in real life to be triggers for you to realize that what happened in the future was for your present self's highest good?

When you can acknowledge that,

When you can do all of those three things at the same time,

That is when you're going to realize that life is unfolding for you and not to you.

Life is always unfolding for your highest good when you are living in alignment with your intuition.

I'm going to say that again.

Life is always unfolding for your highest good when you are living in alignment with your intuition.

There is no rush to whatever your end goal is.

We're often sold a narrative,

Especially on social media,

That we can reach success in a matter of weeks,

Months,

Even a year.

But the truth is that life is a marathon,

Not a sprint.

And so when you think about listening to your intuition,

It is not going to be a miracle solution to get you where you want to be when that reality has to take time to come into physicality,

Maybe over many years.

If you can start listening to that voice inside your head and enjoying the journey,

Then you're going to see how life begins to flow for you.

You're going to see how you love the experience of living it out and how things really are working in your favor.

But those things,

They can't work in your favor if you're not willing to listen to that voice,

If you're not willing to take action,

If you're not willing to acknowledge it.

I hope this really helped you understand the expression,

Everything is happening in your highest good.

Please be careful with who you are allowing to influence your energy,

Especially online,

Because people will say things to monetize themselves at your expense.

Your life is a journey.

Your life is your choice.

So I want you to take what resonates from me and any other creator and leave behind what doesn't.

This is your journey.
