The problem I see is that this discussion seems to contraddict the routine which is recommended in ES. Jack tells us to rehearse our goals twice a day... not all, but just the essential ones. Of course, if you stand in front of the mirror and eyeball yourself to push you towards the five steps in achieving a certain goal, that goal needs to stay fixed into your mind.

I believe that you and your husband have shifted lots of negative energy away over the last few months. People will feel naturally inclined to help you in your endeavours, which are very noble since you renovate your mother's house for no financial reward. As both of you have aligned yourself with a goal, all the rest falls into place. What you describe is not just luck as it repeats itself... free items, double discounts, etc.

Keep moving as you do.. things are happening in your life in the way you want them to!
