Making effort to feel good makes you feel worse

"You don’t have to make efforts to feel good. It should be natural. You don’t have to make efforts to think positively. It should be natural. If it is not natural for you it is time to allow yourself to be who you are."( Patrick K. Averay: Law of Attraction - Including Five Books, The Biggest Secret of Life)

If you read books about the law of attraction and how to use it in everyday life, you may read that you should do something to feel good. On the one hand it is true that the better you feel the best results you get concerning your desires. On the other hand forcing yourself to feel good does not make you feel good. When you do something to feel good subconsciously you know you do not feel good. And the result is more tension and negative supressed energy.

I have always learned most from my own experiences. I know that I feel good if I do not make things or think thoughts that block the natural well being. When I allow myself to just be and accept the present moment as it is, slowly I begin to feel better. But there is no effort in this process. Between allowing and forcing something there is a world of difference. And the results are also different. When you allow yourself to feel what you feel in the moment ( it does not mean that you force yourselves to feel worse, you just allow yourselves to feel what already is) you release energies. When you control, limit or suppress your feelings you create tension. And this tension is negative. The result of this "feel good effort" is  negative energy and the result of this negative energy is negative  attraction.

The negative energy is created also when you do not allow yourselves to be who you are. Think about it. When you do not allow yourself to be who you are you do not allow yourself to feel who you are. If you are conditioned by your parents, school, etc... to feel certain way in certain life situations you are not free, Every person is an individual and unique. When you suppress your own needs, your own feelings, opinions, when you decide according to other people's opinions you really suppress yourself. Not just your feelings but your whole personality. And in this case your personality and your unique being, your soul suffers.

The solution is  allowing yourself to be who YOU want to be, to feel what you feel in the moment, to think freely, to allow thoughts come and go, letting go of old patterns that do not serve you any more, to let go of old feelings if they cause you suffering.
