Abraham-Hicks on New Years Resolutions
Filed Under Health, Money, Relationships | Leave a Comment

ESTHER: Abraham, How do you feel about New Year’s Resolutions? And how would you approach a New Year’s Resolution if you were in our physical shoes.
ABRAHAM: They are a wonderful idea. They fall into the same category as Segment Intending or Positive Expectations or Deliberate Creation. Most New Year’s Resolutions, like any new decisions, are made from a rather clear awareness of what you do not want or of what has not gone well, and so, in order to set your New Year’s Resolutions into motion with enough momentum to keep them going, it is necessary to spend some time lining up your energy with your new decision. Many people make resolutions, and often by the first or second day of the new year they have gone back to their old habits, and then they feel discouraged. Every day provides a wonderful opportunity to set forth your clear intentions. You do not have to wait for a new calendar year.
Find a comfortable place where you will not be interrupted by. Write at the top of your notebook page:
My Dominant Intentions
Then write four sub-headings:
1. My Current Intentions Regarding My Body
2. My Relationships
3. My Home
4. My Work
Then, write a general description of how you want to feel and be, regarding each of the four categories. Be general and easy. Let these words come easily from you.
Now, go back to the first category, focus on the topic, and sit back, relax, and daydream about this. Imagine your body looking just as you would like it to look. See it in your mind’s eye. Try to imagine how that beautiful body would feel. Move it, in your imagination. Take it for a walk, dress it in something that pleases you. Appreciate it’s stamina and flexibility and clarity. Spend as much time daydreaming about this wonderful physical vehicle as you can. Stay in your vision until you feel refreshed, and continue to be there as long as you can.
Now, go to the second category, and do the same thing. Bring an image of the most significant person in your life experience and see that person with you. Feel appreciation for that person. Mentally speak your appreciation. Imagine that person loving you back. Praising you, and complimenting you. Feel your mutual appreciation and admiration. Stay within the vision until you feel refreshed.
Now, go to the third category, and feel appreciation for your home. Make mental pictures of your home as you want it to be. See it orderly, if you desire that, and beautifully furnished, if you desire that. In an easy and carefree manner, imagine it however you would like it to be. Take pleasure from your vision and stay there until you feel refreshed.
Now, go to the fourth page, and gather a mental picture of your work. Feel appreciation for the excuse it gives you to flow energy toward something. Acknowledge how expansive it is, and feel appreciation for its ever changing nature. See yourself expanding and thriving. Stay there until you are refreshed.
There is no right or wrong way to approach this. The thing that is important is that you choose areas of your life that matter most and that you conjure positive images that thrill you. And as you do that, you have not only resolved, in your own mind, how your New Year will be, but you have notified everyone and everything in the entire Universe and you have solicited their assistance in achieving your intentions. And from that moment forward – the entire Universe will conspire to assist you.

You understand vibrational adjustment and you’re willing to go where you need to go to have the pleasing experience that you want. And that’s all that moving up this emotional scale is. It’s tweaking your vibration to put yourself into the receptive mode where you let in the well being that you deserve.
So when we talk about the art of allowing, the Art of Allowing what? The Art of Allowing your connection to Source Energy. The Art of Allowing who you really are to dominate your experience. The art of tweaking yourself bit by bit, thought by thought, word by word, day by day, emotion by emotion into a better and better and better and better and better feeling place on all subjects until you are at the place where you are at one with who you are.
And when you become one with who you are, let us tell you who you will be:
• Clear minded
• Joyful
• Appreciative
• Health beyond description
• Abundant in all things that are important to you
When you deliberately move up this emotional scale, day by day, subject by subject, cleaning up your vibration, bringing yourself gradually and comfortably into alignment with Who You really Are, you open the flood gates and all things you have been desiring flow into your experience with a timing that is impeccable … with a timing that is only managed by Source Energy and All That Is.

Lock On to Your Receiving Mode
Filed Under Vibration | Leave a Comment
http://Abraham-Hicks.com
When the new desire is born within you, and it has not yet manifested — are you still okay with that?
The contrast will continually give birth to desire within you, and if, even though it has not yet manifested, you are satisfied with where you are — while you are eagerly anticipating your inevitable expansion — then everything about your vibration would be perfect for the perfect eternal expansion that.
Your Dissatisfaction Hinders
Your most common hindrance is that feeling of dissatisfaction about something that you want, that you do not have. Either there is something that you’ve got that you don’t want, and you’re unhappy that you can’t get rid of it, or there is something that you desire that has not yet come fully to you, and you are irritated or depressed that it has not yet come. Your feeling of dissatisfaction is your biggest hindrance, and it is also the simplest one to release once you understand how it all works.
Ask, and it is Always Given
Many of you have heard it many, times: When you ask, it is given. Whether you are a cell in one of your magnificent bodies, or in a plant’s body, or you are the fully conscious personality that you know as you, when you ask for something — and you are asking constantly whether you use words or whether your experience just helps you to conclude the desire — when you have desire, it is always answered, every single time.
Three Points of Creation:
There are three points to this fulfilling legacy that is yours: The first point in creation is the desire, or asking. That happens just by your association with your experience. So, the asking happens.
The second point is the answering to that asking. Universal forces, some call it God Force, we call it Creative Life Force — always gives the answer in the moment of the asking.
The third point: You, who is asking, must then receive. You must be in the place where you allow the thing that you are asking for.
So, if there’s something that you have been wanting that is not yet manifesting in your experience, it isn’t because of one or two: It isn’t because you haven’t asked, and it isn’t because the Universe has not yielded it. It can only be that you are not in the receiving mode.
The Satellite Dish Receiver
You may have seen the Monster Bus that Jerry and Esther are moving about in. On top of it is a satellite dish. So when they come into a campground, Esther will say to Jerry, “Where is Houston?” She wants to know, because somewhere over Houston is the satellite that is going to beam the television signal to their dish. And Jerry will say, “It’s off that way.” And Esther will look to see if there is a tree between her dish and what she thinks the satellite position is. And if it looks clear, she gets out a chart that tells her what the elevation should be set at, depending upon where they are on the planet in relationship to this satellite dish, and then she pushes some buttons which set the elevation on the dish. And then the little dish begins to turn around and around on the top of the motor coach, until it locks on to the signal from the satellite.
If they do not have the elevation set properly, that little dish just turns around and around, and around. It would work its heart out. It would spin all night long. (Every now and again it does.) But if it is not in the proper receiving mode, they do not have the satisfying results that they are looking for.
Sometimes we see you that way. You are willing to put forth endless effort. You’ll work 24 hours a day. There is no end to the work or struggle that you are willing to put forth in order to try to achieve. But if you are not in the proper vibrational mode, no matter how much energy or effort or time, or money you put into your endeavor — you don’t lock on.
Am I In The Receiving Mode?
Whether it feels good or bad is the indicator of whether you are in the receiving mode or not. So it is always accurate to say that whatever you are living, abundance or poverty, wellness or sickness, joy or despair — whatever you are living, in this moment, is a perfect vibrational match to your mode of allowing. Whatever you’re getting, that is where you’ve got your dish focused.
All of that stuff you don’t want, whether you name it violence or sickness or poverty or pain, all of that is a product of someone being disconnected from Source Energy. Pretend that there are 100 satellites in the sky, some of them thrill you when you hook up with them, some of them horrify you when you hook up with them, some of them amuse you when you hook up with them, and some of them depress you when you hook up with them. But the operative words are: You hook up with them. It is your vibrational countenance that is making all of the difference.
Do you receive the Well-being that is being offered to you? Or are you holding yourself in some sort of tension without even knowing you’re doing it? There is only a source of Well-being. You may be letting in the fullness of that Well-being, or you may be pinching it off a bit — but depending upon how you’re doing with that, you are living your life experience.
The way you feel is your indicator of whether you’re letting it in. Letting what in? Letting in Well-being. Letting in the clarity that is really you, and letting in the abundance that is natural to you. Letting in your resilience, your physical stamina, and your flexibility. Letting in your ability to intuitively know your path. Letting in your sensitivity to your surroundings, your opportunities to expand, and your joy and appreciation. Letting yourself be who you really are. Letting in whatever you desire.
Why You Feel What You Feel
All of that stuff you don’t want, whether you name it violence or sickness or poverty, or pain, all of that is a product of someone being disconnected from Source Energy. Disconnected is too strong a word; you can never be disconnected, you just get it pinched off pretty good.
Two factors are involved in what makes people feel the way they are feeling: There is the factor of desire: how much focused desire there is. And then there is the factor of allowing: how much allowing is going on. When you see someone in poverty, in anger, in violence, in pain, or in sickness, rather than judging the correctness of their desire, which none of us have the ability or the right to do, instead just stop and evaluate (if you are wanting to be of value) whether they are connected fully to the Source of Well-being, or whether they have found some way of pinching themselves off.
We believe that you will never again be in a place of not understanding why you or anyone that you are observing is getting what they’re getting. You can tell by the things they say, and by the way they are feeling, whether they are holding themselves in a vibrational match to their own desires or not.
You Are Here Because It’s Fun
We don’t need to teach you about what to want. That part comes naturally to you. It’s not anybody’s business what you want, anyway; you are freedom based Beings who get to choose. We don’t need to tell you about who you are from Non-Physical; you innately know who you are: You are Source Energy expressing in this physical body. You’re not here to prove some kind of worthiness. You’re not here to fix something that is broken. You are here as expanding Beings to assist with the expansion, not because it needs your assistance, but because it is fun. It is fulfilling.
In this inevitably expanding Universe, you genius creators said, “I will go forth into this contrasting experience, where all kinds of choices will be laid before me. And out of this buffet of opportunities, I will conclude — sometimes unconsciously, sometimes fully consciously — new desires; in some cases, desires that have never been unto this Universe, or any other, ever before. And when that new rocket of desire is born within me, my work is done, because when that rocket is born, the asking is now in place. And when the asking is in place, the answering is in place. And so, the expansion of the Universe happens joyously, naturally, creatively, and eternally”.
We come forth in response to your asking, not because your lives are inadequate, but because it thrills us when you deliberately line up with your own desire. It is not our desire to guide your desire. It is not our desire to guide your desire.
When you made the decision to come forth into this physical experience, you knew there would be enormous variety that would help you come to conclusions. And you knew that you were, then, a part — and would, in this body, be a part — of a Universe that is freedom based. Which means, no one seeks to control that which you identify as your desire.
This gathering is not about that. Desire happens. This gathering is about assisting you in achieving vibrational harmony with your own desire, so that you can, right now this red hot minute, express yourself in the fullest sense of the word.
None Need Fear An Aligned One
Now, that’s frightening to some. They say, “Abraham, if everyone really felt free to desire anything, wouldn’t we need to hide out from a lot of them?” And we say, we don’t think so, because everything that everyone wants — no matter what it is — is always because they believe they would feel better in the having of it. And we have noticed that when you align with that which makes you feel better — no one would ever need to fear you.
Align Your Thoughts and Desires
As with all analogies, our satellite dish analogy is not perfect. The biggest difference between it and what’s happening with you is that your contrast, which causes you to give birth to your rocket of desire, sends the signal. In other words, it is your desire that is beaming to you. So when we say you’re wanting to align the Energy within you, we’re talking about aligning the Energy of your now thought — your habit of thought, your belief, your day-to-day vibrational expression — with the vibration of your desire.
So, you launch the rocket that is sending the signal to you, now all you’ve got to do is line up with the signal that you’ve sent to you. In other words, it is the vibrational harmony between the vibrational meter of your desire and the vibrational meter of your now expression, or your belief, that matters. If you’ve concluded, through your exposure to contrast, that you desire something different in your experience, and that desire is vibrating here: It is this dream, this idea, that when you first thought about it thrilled you, but now you stand here mostly noticing what-is, talking about it softly to your friends, “Wish this were different; wish this were different; wish this were different;” in every moment that you’re talking about what-is, instead of where you’re going — instead of what you are desiring — you are holding yourself vibrationally apart from the thing you want. You are not locked onto your signal.
Catch Yourself in the Act
It would be helpful if you would begin to catch yourself in the act of being locked off your signal. Because we hear so many of you saying, “What’s going on here? I want it. I’ve been saying I want it. I know I’m using the right words. I know I’ve got the right expression on my face. Why isn’t it happening?” The answer to that is: it is because you keep doing that thing that you do that locks you off the signal.
Some time ago, Esther went out to the chicken coop and found a possum in the nest where the eggs are, with egg all over its face. She loved it. “Egg on its face! Imagine that!” Esther said, “I’ve heard that all my life, and this is the first time I’ve ever caught someone with egg on their face.” And if you could have seen this little possum, with the guilty look on his face, he was the epitome of being caught with egg on his face.
Catch yourself in the act of doing that thing that you do when you are not allowing the Pure Positive Energy to flow; when you’re not allowing yourself to be a vibrational match to your own desire.
So what happens is, you tend to evaluate the content of your now experience so fully that you find the more familiar vibration of what-is, rather than finding the better feeling vibration of what you desire. And that, right there, is the only thing, the only thing, that ever holds you apart from anything you want.
It’s Only A Little Bit of Poison
We tease a little bit. It’s like being willing to endure just a little bit of poison. It’s like, every day, finding a little poison and just tasting it. It’s a little bitter at first, just a little bit. Hmm, doesn’t kill you right away. Diminishes your experience almost unnoticeably in the beginning. But then you sort of get a taste for it. It’s like it becomes a habit. It becomes so familiar that even though it doesn’t really feel good while you do it, it doesn’t really give you immediate detrimental results. And so you just sort of lap it up a little bit….
Sometimes we visit with our physical friends who feel that they are very far apart from something they want. Maybe their body has been labeled something that is frightening them. Or maybe they have some economic disaster, or a personal relationship disaster. And as they come to us, their attitude about self is, “I must have done something really, really wrong. There must be some major thing that I’m doing or have done that is now keeping me from this thing that I want.”
It isn’t anything big. It’s just the steady habit of holding yourself locked off the signal. It’s a whole lot of simple little things that usually don’t amount to much more than slight aggravation or slight irritation. It’s just that edgy feeling of not being in the place of fully receiving.
When the satellite dish is off the signal only a little bit, there is no picture on the TV screen. You can’t get a little bit close to it. It’s either locked on or it’s not. The same thing is happening with you. When you’re locked onto your signal of desire, you feel good. You feel this feeling of exhilaration. You know that you are locked on when you are.
Pay Attention to Emotions
Your emotions tell you everything that you need to know about your relationship with your Source Energy. Your emotions tell you how specifically focused you are, which means how strong your desire is, and how much of the Source Energy you’re summoning through your focused desire, right now. And your emotions tell you whether you are, in this moment, a vibrational match to your desire or not — whether you are in the mode of allowing or receiving, or not.
And so, by paying attention to your emotions, or by paying attention to the way you feel, you are getting a very clear indicator of what your vibrational offering is. We want you to be aware of your vibrational offering while it is in the emotional stage rather than waiting for it to be in the manifested stage, although that works too. You can pay no attention whatsoever to the way you feel, just offer your thoughts, and therefore your feelings or vibration, all over the place, and the Universe will match you with perfect vibrational matches. And as you receive the manifestation, you can say, “I would have rather this truck did not fall on me.” And then, it is a little bit more time consuming to bring yourself back to your fully unflattened state. Although it can be done — it is cumbersome.
You are extensions of Source Energy. And the more you are allowing the fullness of your Source Energy to flow through you — the more you thrive. Source Energy is likened to your electricity that flows through your walls. And some of you are having rolling blackouts, we notice. Not only in your houses, but in your day-to-day experience, as you find things that you use as your excuse to pinch yourself off from the Source Energy that is You.
It would be like plugging in your appliances and having only half of the electrical current. And your lights are flickering, sometimes they are on, sometimes they aren’t, your buzz saw just turns slowly. And you say, “I am wanting to be hooked up to a stronger grid. I am wanting purer electricity to flow through my system.”
Am I Letting It In?
Discover how to clean up your vibration so there is not so much resistance within you, so that you can be the fuller receiver of that which you are asking for. It is not a difficult thing to do, once you are understanding the process –it is really about setting yourself into vibrational harmony with that which feels good. We would encourage you to ask yourself on a regular basis, maybe hundreds of times in every day, “Am I letting it in? Am I letting it in?” Letting what in? You could call it Creative Life Force, God force. “Am I holding myself in vibrational harmony with those things that I have identified that I’m wanting to experience?”
Why Isn’t It Coming To Me?
The only reason that something that you want is not coming to you, is that you are holding yourself in vibrational harmony with something other than what you want. And the good news is: every single time you’re doing it, every single time, without exception, you are feeling something less than positive emotion when it happens. So if you are asking yourself on a fairly regular basis, maybe two or three hundred, or a thousand, times every day, and if you’re catching yourself in the act of doing it now — it won’t take 30 days of being aware that you’re doing it now to stop doing it now. Once you realize what the receiving mode feels like, it is such an easy thing to hold yourself in vibrational harmony with the Well-being that is natural to you. And that is what the Science of Deliberate Creation is about.
You Are Vibrational Beings
You are vibrational Beings much more than you are flesh, blood and bone beings. You are more vibrational, you are more electrical, than you are anything else. And the way that you read the vibration of your Being is through your emotions. Your emotions tell you everything that you will ever need to know about your relationship with your Source Energy. And we can’t think of anything that is more significant for you to be aware of than your relationship with your Source Energy — because the Source Energy is life itself.
When you are fully connected to and fully allowing Source Energy, you are the extension of that. You are that Blended Being. You are allowing the whole of You to flow through and live this physical experience. In that state of being, eagerness would be your most common emotion. You would vacillate between saying things like, “Oh, this is interesting,” to “Oh, this is satisfying,” to “Oh, don’t you love that,” to “Oh, I’m really enjoying this,” to “Oh, this is interestingÉ.” All of those feelings of life-giving emotion are the natural way that you are, and the way you felt as you came forth into this physical experience, to begin with, — and the way you would always feel once you get the hang of catching yourself in the mode of doing that thing that you do that keeps all of that from happening.
You Are Eternal Beings You are eternal Beings, which means you never get it done. How does that feel? You never get it done. If that feels like, “Oh good,” then you are hooked up with Source Energy; you are recalling who you are; you are eagerly anticipating the unfolding; you are remembering that the destination has never been what it’s about. The destination just gives you something to focus upon so that the Energy flows, so that your journey is exhilarating.
When you realize that you are eternal Beings, that must mean that there’s way more before you than there could ever be behind you. In other words, eternity means forever. And so, when you get in sync with eternity, doesn’t it make you sort of want to relax and enjoy, and savor?
What’s The Big Rush?
What’s the big rush? What is the clamoring toward one destination or another? Why not kick back a little bit; take in the perfection of where you stand? Think about where you’re going; reach for feelings, past present or future, that feel good — and enjoy who you are in your powerful and pointed now.

Are you knowing that you are the creator of your experience? Is that a good thing? Have you noticed that there is a continual new desire within you? Are you beginning to understand that the desire that is focused within you is the most natural thing in all of the Universe? Are you beginning to understand that the desire that continually focuses within you is the natural consequence of the contrast in which you are so dramatically, emphatically, and precisely focused?
You are focusing mechanisms and your ability to perceive within the framework of the variety that is around you causes continual focus, or desire, to be born within you. The entire Universe is established to help you - creator out here on this leading edge of thought - assume your new stance or conclusion or determination or decision or idea, or desire.
Desires are born within you, constantly, whether you verbalize them, or not. You are focusing mechanisms creators out here on the leading edge of thought, in this natural environment where you synthesize data and conclude.
DESIRE is natural. The Universe is established to help you give birth to Desire.
We are here to assist you, if it is your desire, in helping you to find vibrational harmony with the desire that is flowing through you. And, it is your work to allow the desire that has been concluded by your process.
We have been calling this gathering, ‘The Science of Deliberate Creation,’ for it is a wonderful thing when you are standing in a place of deliberate focus. But we think a very important subtitle for this gathering would be ‘The Art of Allowing.’ Because unless you have learned how to bring yourself into vibrational harmony with the Energy that you are pulling through you, (under the title of ‘desire’) then you stand in a place of resistance.
Desire is a natural thing. When desire is born within you, and you are blocking or resisting or not allowing the desire that is flowing through you - that is what resistance is. When you learn to allow the Energy, that is being summoned through you by the power of your desire, to flow in a non-resisted manner - that is creation at its best. That is fulfilling your reason for being. That is living, as the extension of Nonphysical Energy that is you, out here on this leading edge of thought - allowing the Energy that creates worlds to flow through you.
What confuses most people about this is that you have not learned to be discriminating in that which you are giving your attention to. When you see something that you want, and you say, ‘Yes yes, more of that,’ what’s actually happening, not by your yessing but by your attention to it, you are including that vibration in your mix, which means, when Law of Attraction acts upon that - you are going to get more of this that you are saying ‘yes’ to. But when you see those things that you do not want and you shout ‘no’ at them - because this is a Universe that is based upon attraction, and there’s no such thing as exclusion - when you say ‘no’ to something it’s really the same as saying ‘yes’ to it. Yes means yes, and no means yes. Whatever you give your attention to means yes.
Don’t Put It On Your Plate
What we are wanting you to begin to recognize is that there are different ways to evaluate contrast. There is that light way of making choices, like you do at a smorgasbord of food: ‘I will have some of that, and I will have some of this, and I will have some of this,’ where you don’t get all upset about the stuff you don’t want on your plate - you just accept that you don’t have to put it on your plate. But in the smorgasbord of life, most of you get all bent out of shape about those things you don’t want in your life, and so you offer a vibration of resistance, as if, if you could shout ‘no’ loud enough, or push hard enough, you could keep those things out of your experience. And Law of Attraction (that which is like unto itself is drawn) says you can’t.
The harder you push against something, the more you vibrate in harmony with it, and the more you vibrate in harmony with it, the more Law of Attraction yields it to you. Not because you’re bad, but because you are vibrating mechanisms that are saying ‘yes’ to things you do not want.
Your work as an allower, is to get happy and stay there. The Universe knows exactly what you want. And because you are blessed, worthy beings, this benevolent Universe is yielding to you, constantly, all this good stuff.
Your Mission: Get Happy and Stay There - Well-Being is Natural to You
You are magnificent beings in this perfect time/space reality, and we are wanting to assist you in finding fewer and fewer excuses to disallow the Well-being that would be there otherwise. We are wanting you to realize that Well-being is your legacy. Well-being was your plan. Well-being is what is natural to you. And anything less than absolute Well-being, which means anything less than passion, anything less than clarity, anything less than eagerness, anything less than exhilaration, anything less than perfect vitality and physical Well-being, anything less than abundance and prosperity relative to all things that you desire, anything less than that means only one thing: you’ve picked up some habits of thought - that you are holding as beliefs - that are pinching off the Well-being that would be there otherwise.
We want you to be able to recognize, from now on, when you are in the place of disallowing the natural Well-being. Because when you get that, then you become one who is looking for rampages of appreciation. You become one who is looking for positive aspects. And it’s a gradual thing, friends. Don’t beat up on yourself if you cannot go instantly from aggravation to joy. Or from a place of depression to exhilaration. Or from a place of confusion to clarity. Don’t ask yourself to do something that defies Law.
Look for Positive Aspects. And go on Rampages of Appreciation.
We want to show you how to switch your vibration, little by little by little’by reaching for the thought that feels better from right where you now stand. You may be in the middle of something that has your attention, that has caused you to regurgitate feelings from a long time ago. And the vibration within you may be very far from the eagerness and clarity and abundance and Well-being that you want. In other words, you feel pretty rotten, right now, let’s say, and so, as you’re feeling really, really rotten, and some bright-eyed, shiny person comes in and says, ‘You know, you are the creator of your own reality,’ you sort of want to just punch their lights out. You wish they would just go away, because you are vibrationally very different from where they are, and that’s the last thing that you can, or want to hear.
In Harmony With Disharmony
When you feel rotten, you’re saying to the Universe, ‘Don’t yield me anything that I deserve, and don’t give me anything that I want, for heavens sakes! because I have decided to use this nitpicking thing as my excuse to hold myself in vibrational disharmony with all things that I consider to be good. I’m out of harmony with clarity. I’m out of harmony with good. I’m out of harmony with abundance. I’m out of harmony with wellness. I’m out of harmony with eagerness. I’m out of harmony with all things that I want. I’m in harmony with feeling rotten, and I hate it. But here I am.’ That’s what you’re saying when you’re standing in that rotten feeling place.
So, what do you do about it? Well, you can’t reach for a joyful thought because you do not have vibrational access to a joyful thought. It is as if there has never been a joyful thought in your head. That bright-eyed shiny person would like to get you to think a happy thought. They’re dangling them in front of you like carrots. To you they look like scum. In other words, you can’t see, through those eyes, in the way that they would like you to.
Moving Up Your Vibrational Range
So, what does one do? Well, you stand right where you are, in this rotten feeling place, and you say, ‘Which thought feels best?’ And in this rotten feeling place, you have a range of choices. And as you choose the first thought that feels best, not much will happen. You might not even realize that you feel that much better. But just by making the effort of choosing - from all these rotten choices - the thought that feels a little better than the other, just by choosing this thought that feels best out here on the edge of your range, and by holding it for as little as 17 seconds, you have shifted.
Now your vibrational range has shifted. That thought that was on the edge of your range now becomes the center of your range. You can’t go back, in this moment, to that further negative edge of your range. But you now have more available that feels even better.
It takes a selfish person: You have to want to feel good, and if you are selfish enough to reach for the thought that feels better, the same thing happens again. And if you maintain it for just a little bit, 17 seconds is really enough, that becomes the center of your range. And now, in less than a minute, you don’t even have access to the really wretched thought that was touching you a moment ago. And you now have access to range of much better feeling thoughts than you did before.
Be selfish enough to reach for the thought
Try it another couple of times, and you might be back in range with your bright and shiny friend. Maybe not. But one thing is always true: When you make the effort and you shift, even slightly, the entire Universe yields to you differently. Which means, you now have opened to a whole new range of thoughts. A whole different set of memories is now to accessible by you. A whole different pod of traffic is accessible to you. A whole new range of ideas! That with which you will rendezvous, physically, mentally, through memory, reaching into the future, or right here in your moment, has shifted because of this very minor effort that you have made. You reach the place where you easily get to this really good place of feeling wonderful. But that’s does not mean that you cannot go all the way back to where you started in 17 seconds.
We are not asking you to look at something awful, and call it good. What we are encouraging you to do is develop such a propensity for vibrating up here, that before long you have established a medium of vibration that no longer yields you access to the rotten feeling stuff like that.
So, your life just gets better and better. The better it feels, the better it feels, the better it feels, because, as you offer the vibration, the Universe yields it, because it is always true: ‘What I’m thinking and feeling and what I’m manifesting are always a vibrational match. So now, as I’m manifesting this good feeling stuff, now I’m standing in an easier and easier place to anticipate more good stuff.’
Should I Take Action?
What we see, so often, is, you stand in a place where you don’t want to be. And you say, ‘I really don’t want to be here, I really don’t want to be here, I really don’t want to be here, I want to be over there. Okay, I think I’ll take this action to get over there.’ And we say, before you take the action to get over there, take another step first: Imagine being over there. Imagine the finished place of being over there. Imagine the thrill of being over there. Get excited about being over there. Feel like you’re over there more than like you’re over here.
Do the Energy work first, and then take the inspired action. Because when you take an action to try to correct something that is wrong, all the action does is amplify what is wrongâ?¦ There’s not enough action in the world to compensate for your vibration. Guide Your Own Visualization
Just find something fresh in your now that you’re excited about, and turn your attention to it. You see, there’s a whole world out there with all kinds of different vibrations. And you could choose all around it. But the tendency is to believe that I have to clean all of that up before I can feel better. And so, you say, ‘Well that’s ridiculous. I could never get that done. I don’t have enough time in this lifetime.’
Instead, say, ‘Where I stand is a very good place, because where I stand is the culmination of a whole lot of things that I’ve been wanting. And I don’t have to go back and figure out all the steps along the way. All I have to do is figure out, from where I am, what do I now want? I don’t have to explain or figure out how I got here. All I have to do is figure out, from where I stand, where do I want to be?’
And envisioning that gets easier and easier. Someone said, ‘I’m not very good at visualizing.’ And we say, most of you haven’t practiced visualizing. You’re good at turning on the television, or you’re good at reading a book, or you’re good at watching a movie. You’re good at watching someone else’s visualization. Most of you have not guided your own visualization that much.
Wouldn’t It Be Nice If…?
Here is the key to guiding your own visualization: Here’s a nice way to do it: Play the Wouldn’t It Be Nice If … ? game. The reason the Wouldn’t It Be Nice If … ? game is so important, and so powerful, is because when you say, Wouldn’t It Be Nice If ? - you’re choosing something that you want, and in your Wouldn’t It Be Nice If… ? you’re soft and easy about it. It’s not the end of the world. It’s a much softer vibration.
‘Wouldn’t it be nice if I stumbled on something that really worked for me? Wouldn’t it be nice if the desires that I’ve been holding for a long time sort of came to a peak like a guiding light? Wouldn’t it be nice if I could meet someone who had just run across something that really worked for them, that would light a fire in me? Wouldn’t it be nice if I could reclaim the body weight that I had when I was such and such an age? Wouldn’t it be nice if?… ?’
Your logic may tell you: ‘Hey, I’ve been at this for a long time. If I knew how to do it, or if I was good at it, I’d have already gotten it done. So there’s something screwed up in this.’ And so, you hold yourself in that vibration. Where, when you’re playing the Wouldn’t It Be Nice If? game, much of that vibration will be diffused.
Play the ‘Wouldn’t It Be Nice If…..’ Game.
Imagine that you are the owner of a huge corporation. There are a hundred thousand people who work at various stages and places in this corporation, and you are the one who created it. You imagined it. You saw the need for it. You dreamed it. You found vibrational harmony with your dream. And now it’s yours.
And there are a thousands who don’t know how to use their computers, they don’t know how to file very well, they are learning at different stages, it’s a constant turnover of people, they’re in and out, they’re squabbling over parking places, some have windows, some don’t. It’s an immense organization.
And you have a manager that is just incredible. Because this manager takes care of all of this, you don’t have to deal with anything. You get an idea, and you express it softly. And the manager says, ‘Consider it done.’ You get another idea and you envision it, and your manager says, ‘Consider it done.’ You have such an extraordinary manager that you are free. You’re not dealing with the nitty gritty in the parking lot, not dealing with raises or vacations, you’re not worried about any of this stuff. You are the visionary. And you have a manager that deals with it effectively and perfectly. And you count your lucky stars, every day, that you found this manager.
And now, we’re saying to you, you have such a manager and it’s called Law of Attraction. But most of you do not know that you have that manager. And so, you keep thinking that you need to step into those many roles, and be the facilitator. And then you get bogged down in all that nitpicking, nitty gritty stuff that doesn’t have anything to do with who you really are or with your vision.
Our message to you is: You are a visionary. And of course it is lovely to be an actionary too. But if you will let your vision be real and full and you find full alignment with it before you take action’then the effort that you offer is always joyful, fulfilling, satisfying effort.
And so, keep telling the ‘manager’ what you want. Not because the manager (called Law of Attraction) needs to hear it, but because every time you talk about it, and every time you come into vibrational harmony with your own desire’you open your vortex of allowing so that the Universe can yield to you a little bit more of what it already knows you want.
You are all working much too hard at all of this. It goes like this: You are wonderful beings. You are blessed beings. You are deserving of Well-being. Well-being is on its way to you. Chill out and let it in. Play more. Do the Hokey Pokey. Someone gave Jerry and Esther a little note: ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if it turned out that the Hokey Pokey is what it’s all about?’
It turns out, it is. It is!
There is great love here for you. We are complete.

How? Where? When? Who?
Filed Under Money | Leave a Comment
Guest: I have heard you say Abraham that we don’t live in an assertive world. That we can bring everything to us by our thoughts?
Abe: There is no assertion.
Guest: How can I balance wanting to draw everything in my life without having to go into the doing or being of whatever it is that I do? I want to go and create a million dollars but I don’t want to go and work for it.
Abe: Your statement is really telling and important, because what your saying is I want a million dollars and I believe there are ways to get a million dollars that I don’t want to do. So what you’re doing is saying “I want this but I don’t want this” and that is not a very powerful statement of being because you are setting up contradiction right a way. So you soften that by saying “I want a million dollars and I want to find a way that is compatible with me to receive it.” Now there is less resistance in that.
You say “I want a million dollars and I know there are a lot of people that have a million dollars who got it in a way that would not be uncomfortable to me”. But when you say “I want a million dollars but there is no one that I am going to inherit it from”. Or “there is nobody that is going to die and leave it to me”. In other words you have to stop the contradiction.
When you talk about what you want and why you want it there is usually less resistance within you than when you talk about What you want and How you are going to get it, because when you pose questions that you don’t have answers for - How? Where? When? Who? - then it sets up a contradiction vibration within you that slows everything down.
Statements like “there must be plenty of people on the planet today who have a million dollars and an excess of it who at one time were standing right where I am just wanting it and had no idea how it was going to come”. Feel how resistance free that statement is? Words like faith and trust are so annoying on certain levels, but we want to explain to you the value of them, because even though you don’t know how, when or where or who. If you know what and you talk about why you want it and you have practiced the thought of it until it is starting to feel very familiar to you.
What begins to happen is things that couldn’t happen to you now begin happening. Ideas that wouldn’t even occurred to you now begin to occur to you and rendezvous with people that you don’t have access to begin to happen and then when your million and many more come to you. You will wonder where it always was.

Your vibrational offering creates future experiences.

Your vibrational offering creates future experiences.
Our encouraging you to deliberately focus for some of you became being afraid of your own thoughts.
You have so much leeway.
You are so adored.
There is no need to be afraid of your thoughts….
While you focus - tend to your vibration; tend to your connection, tend to your allowing of who you really are…
On the emotional scale - wherever you are is great.
Joy doesn’t get an “A” and Depression an “F”.
When you move from Depression to Anger you get an “A”.
Move from Revenge to Anger you get an “A”
Move from Anger to Frustration you get an “A”.
There is no inappropriateness where you are..
No longer compare your vibration set point to others..
Cultivate an attitude of here is where I am on my way to something better -move easier up the scale.
