The Law of Gestation has been the trickiest of the universal laws for me to work with because it requires the acceptance of time and patience, which is something I am getting better at. It states that all things in nature evolve over time. You can boil that down to taking a deep breath and accepting that everything takes a minute, or many, to accomplish.
It also states there is a finite amount of time for an idea to go from conception to maturity, if we nourish the seed. For me, that is the comforting part of this law. It promises a light at the end of the tunnel, so long as we hold to the goal. I have seen the law of gestation at work in my life as I’ve strived to learn and apply all the universal laws.
At first, I was frustrated by how long it was taking me to really commit to these new ideas and let go of old patterns. I expected to be able to make shifts and progress in leaps and bounds. Except for a few instances, this has not been the case. It has been more of a slow, gradual progression in the right direction. I had to just realize it was going to take time to change the thoughts and programs I had been running for years.
I would be working on something specific in my life I wanted to change, like a fear I wanted to let go of, and I would get stuck. Sometimes months would go by without feeling like any headway was made, and I’d begin to feel disheartened. However, as I continued to cultivate faith that things were working out, suddenly, a shift would occur, and the work I had put in became so incredibly worth it. The time it took to accomplish my task no longer mattered.
I was becoming more aware of my thoughts than I had ever been, and it required more effort and energy then I ever expected. Despite the work, this law finally started to give me comfort when I settled down and KNEW that my goals would be accomplished and there was a limited amount of time it would take to see them achieved.
That brought me peace. One thing I’ve learned is that coming from a peaceful place will always get you closer to your goal than coming from a harried place. I do find it comical, however, that it took so much time for me to realize that attaining my goals would take time.
