Try asking not forcing
I was on an airfield. It was raining up my trousers. Seriously, it was raining so hard I thought I was never going to feel dry and warm again. I was huddled under an umbrella, watching the few jets that could still fly in such awful conditions try to pull stunts in the mist. I was miserable!
I focused my imagination on what I wanted, not what was happening. Even though I was soaked and unhappy, and the weather forecast promised more rain, I imagined a sunny sky. Lo and behold, an hour later, the skies over the airfield cleared and we had sunshine. It was soon far too hot for me!
I learned two things. Not to meddle, and to be satisfied and joyful in what I'm given!
