Erin Gray:

Ever wonder why your money goals or your business dreams aren't happening overnight? It might actually be perfect for you and part of the universal principle called the law of gestation. Today, I'm going to be exploring what this actually means, how it shows up with money and why trusting the timing is one of the most powerful things that you can do for your financial growth. Welcome back to your Money, your Rules, with me. Erin Gray, I'm so grateful that you're here and I'm excited to talk to you about this universal law today, so let's dive in.

Erin Gray:

So what actually is the law of gestation? It is the idea that everything has a specific incubation period. Basically, just like seeds need time to grow into a plant, or a baby needs 10 months inside its mother's womb, to develop, your goals, which include the financial ones, also need time, and what I believe is you cannot force them to arrive faster, although many of us try Yours truly over here have done that most of my adult life, trying to push and make them come faster than their natural timeline, and I think that we do this from a place of. We think that if they arrive faster because we believe that the feeling is outside of us, versus and what I mean by. That is the reason why we want something to come quicker is because we think that when we have that thing it's going to make us feel a certain way. But that's not how our feelings are generated. They are always coming from within, from our beliefs, from our thoughts, from what we think about ourselves. That is what creates our feelings, and the how and the when is not your responsibility, it's God's. Or if you resonate with universe or spirit or source, whatever it is, that is the responsibility of God's spirit, source, universe, not us. So how does this actually show up with money? You might set a goal to hit a certain amount monthly in your business and then, when it doesn't, you don't see that happen. You feel frustrated because it doesn't happen right away. But money manifestations, like everything. It is a universal law. Everything follows the law of gestation, so it applies to everything, including money. So there are unseen processes, there's magic that's happening in the background. When you declare you know what you want to create or what you want to manifest, there are these magical forces that are unfolding and I think that this allows for your nervous system to adjust to new levels of receiving. Your identity is shifting, the right opportunities are lining up and when we start to doubt or we have fear, or we start and begin to worry, we actually slow down this process.

Erin Gray:

So let's talk about why impatience actually slows down your process. If you dig up a seed every day to see if it's growing, you actually disturb the natural process. Think about it. If does a farmer till the soil, plant the seed, go out daily and check to see and wonder why it hasn't sprouted already? No, he or she knows it's going to sprout and their job is to go out and nurture it, to give it love, to give it water, allow the sunshine to come on, make sure that it's getting plenty of sunshine, making sure that the soil is just right for it, and then universal intelligence does the rest.

Erin Gray:

Many of us, I believe we, haven't been taught this. So if you think about with money, if you want to create more money, manifest more money, if you are set your intention and you say bring it to me in the easiest and the quickest way, and I would say, first and foremost, when I'm talking about manifesting money or creating more money, I'm not talking about sitting on the couch and just magically manifesting money you have to have a vessel, you have to have some type of vessel to receive this money. So, whether that be obviously through your business, a lot of my clients are business owners, so let's just assume that your business is your vessel. So if you are saying that you want to create certain amount of money in a month, do you actually have the vessel to support that currently? So think about once you have decided and declared what you want to generate in your business, are you checking obsessively, are you doubting yourself? Are you panicking or feeling fear or worry that it's not happening? Like you're looking at your accounts, you're looking at your Stripe account and then you're using that evidence to then create the belief that it's not working.

Erin Gray:

I mean, so often I'm in some Facebook groups one for my podcast and so often some of the women in there when they're asking their questions you can sense the energy is from it's not working. Well, if you are coming from the energy of it's not working, that is what is going to happen. So think about when you have decided to call in more business growth, are you doing that from love and expansion and fun and joy, or are you doing it from fear, doubt, worry and panic? So those lower vibration emotions it's going to disrupt the energy and it's going to slow down the process, disrupt the energy and it's going to slow down the process. And you are going to know if you are doing this and how often you are doing this by how you feel in your body. This is why it's so important that I encourage clients. I'm always telling clients or advising them or encouraging them I should say encouraging is the best word Encouraging them to slow down and feel what they are feeling in their body.

Erin Gray:

We have become a world that is so fast in taking action, in moving through the world, in making decisions, that and, yes, making decisions quickly and swiftly, which is, I think, a good thing. But what is quickly and swiftly right? Like to someone it might be weeks or months and to some other person it might be a couple of days, like it's all relative. But I do think taking action once you have feel calm and you feel you're coming from that energy of sufficiency and abundance, yes, take the action, but that's not where most of us need to start. We need to start with slowing down for a hot second and tapping into our bodies and actually getting clear on what we are feeling and then, once we are there once we have. When I say pondered, what I mean is like gotten into the body and really felt what we are feeling when we are making decisions. Are we making them from a rushed place? Are we making them from a knowing place? The other thing that I think is really important to say here is that your body, it needs time to calibrate holding or having more money, more clients, more success.

Erin Gray:

I did a podcast on how do you increase, you know, your wealth or increase the capacity to have, and I think I'll put that in the show notes to go back if you want to listen to that episode. But I think that when having that amount of money or that amount of business success or having systems in place, you know for me to ask for $100,000 a month right now. I don't have systems in place to support that amount of money. So you have to think about what do I need to do and act differently, feel differently in order to create that, and we do this by visualizing through our end scenes, like END and end scene. You know we have to make the success that we are after, or wanting, desiring, and the amount of money that we want to have. It has to feel natural and we can't be putting it up on a pedestal. You know, if you're thinking that, having a million dollars or more, $10 million, if you're putting that amount of money up on a pedestal, we aren't a vibrational match to it.

Erin Gray:

Think about the law of attraction or the law of vibration Like attracts like. So if you think that would be amazing, but from a place of I don't have it, you're in lack, and lack is attracting more. Lack, not abundance. So the law of gestation gives us time to work on ourselves, to do that inner work that we need to do within to then be ready to receive what we are calling in Our identity. I always come back to our identity, our self-concept being on the same frequency of that of which we desire. You know, think about it this way Someone who has a million dollars well, I should say someone who has a good relationship with money and that you know has generated from love and abundance isn't thinking about the million dollars all the time.

Erin Gray:

They're thinking about how do they create the next million. All the time they're thinking about how do they create the next million. So, if you are thinking about and worrying about and obsessing about the money all the time, think about what vibration are you actually in. So I think, if we can sink into, if we can love the gestation period, the law of gestation, it can be such a beautiful thing, because then you begin to trust the process. You know your nervous system once you learn how to regulate it.

Erin Gray:

And here's the thing we're always going to be what I say, going from the 5D to the 3D, meaning we're going to be in our spiritual being self, and then we're going to come into our human mind, right, and our human mind is going to see the observed world and it's going to say things, or it's going to think things and it's going to say it can't be possible, it's not happening fast enough. Whatever it's going to say, I don't think it ever goes away. Right, we live in this human body, but how quickly we react to it or we don't react to it, how quickly we go back to our imagined state. That is what I'm wanting to impress upon you. Is that's what we're working for or that's what we're working towards? So your system is regulated, and when things feel natural for you, like when you finally receive what it is that you have asked, you're probably not even thinking about that anymore. And you're? You know, if someone were to tell you, you know, if they were to look at your books and be like, yeah, you hit your X month, be like, yeah, of course, duh, like I'm already onto the next thing, and not from like this isn't good enough, but like I've already been that person for that long. Of course I'm going to receive that. And the thing I think also is that there is a wanting, and then there is the belief, and then there is the knowing, and we have to get to the place of knowing, knowing that your desires are already done, because they are.

Erin Gray:

You know the book I think it's called Power of Awareness, by Neville Goddard. It's an amazing book. It's a short read, but it's one of those things where you just read the chapters over and over again and you learn new things each time. But Neville Goddard says that nothing is created. It is only manifested, meaning it is brought from the 5D into the 3D, into that material plane. This is what actually allows money to flow easily, because everything that was ever needed to be created or created has already been done. We just need to take it. You know, you think about your imagination. The reason why you can imagine, it is because it already exists for you on some other plane and you just got to get to that vibration to receive it.

Erin Gray:

So what are these actual steps? First and foremost, keep tending the soil, and your soil is being disciplined with your mind. What are you allowing in? Are those scarcity thoughts? Are they prosperous thoughts? Abundant thoughts, like be very aware of what is your mind. What is it saying to you? And then, what are you feeding it? Are you showing up for your business on a consistent basis?

Erin Gray:

Sometimes I'll have people say, oh, I want to make X, y, z and it's like OK, well, are you treating your business like a business or are you treating it like a hobby? Also, too, are you following the breadcrumbs? Are you celebrating every little sign of growth? You know, so often we have just completely bypassed what we have, you know, created, even if it's just the 1%. Are you celebrating that?

Erin Gray:

Or are you coming from a belief, like I mentioned earlier, where it's not working? And this is where I say you have to really slow down and check in with your energy, because if you are coming from the belief that it is working and you are looking at your KPIs or your data and you're genuinely curious on what could you be doing differently, like what else could you try? What else could you do? That is coming from a place of curiosity and abundance. When you are coming from the place of it's not working, nothing is working. When is this going to happen? That energy is very different energy when you're looking at your data, are you in joyful anticipation, like when you know something's already happening. You're not stressing about it. You're like imagining, like how fun it's going to be when it shows up. It's not from a place of I wonder if it's going to happen. I wonder if it's going to come.

Erin Gray:

Are you feeling grateful on a daily basis for everything that you currently have and for what is coming your way and from living from that wish fulfilled? Or are you doubting or worrying because it hasn't shown up yet? I think it's always working. Like that's a belief that serves me. It's always working, even when you think it's not. It's always working. Trust that it is always working, even if you can't see it yet. Like I think our faith muscle needs to improve. Right, it already exists. It just hasn't shown up in the observed world.

Erin Gray:

So focus on you know, even if you have to start with, like writing down what is already working in my business, where look at how far I've already come. You really have to focus the mind like. This is the and I'm air quoting the hard work that those of us that have been taught we have to work hard. It is not manual labor, it is not hours worked. It is being very watchful of what our mind tries to tell us when we don't have or receive what it is that we want. Yet, it is staying focused, it is staying disciplined.

Erin Gray:

It is, you know, when the thought comes in and says oh, you won't ever get to this place, or you're taking so long or you're not cut out for this, or whatever. The mind tries to chatter at us. It is stopping that, I shouldn't say stopping it. It is allowing that thought to go by with no emotion at all and then from connecting immediately with what thought do I want to believe?
