Guest guest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Do you know what you want? No matter what it is, isn't the reason you want it … to feel better, happier with yourself and your life? How do you go about getting what you want? Do you write down your dreams? Do you make a list? Do you find that your list changes and modifies as your wants transform? How do you know what's best for you? Your feelings point the way by telling you what feels best. When you think of your dreams do they give you a good feeling? Do t hey bring about a feeling of joy? If so, then you can be sure that you are aligning with your core being and allowing source energy to flow. How about when you are feeling bad, or depressed, or unhappy? Does this tell you that you are mis-aligned? Does this tell you that you are focused on what you Don't Want, rather than on what you Do Want? Do you feel the resistance in the energy flow which slows down your vibration until you are no longer happy? "Follow your bliss and doors will open where there were no doors before." ~ Joseph Campbell Isn't it wonderful to know that what brings us joy is what is most closely aligned with who we are at the core of our being? Isn't it perfect that our joy allows Source Energy to flow through us? It's worth thinking about… ~ Misty-Eve* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Write Down Your Dreams Exactly what have you done TODAY towards your long-term dreams? Do you even have a dream? If you don't know precisely where you're going, I'll bet you end up somewhere else! If you had a genie, and 3 wishes, what would they be? I'm asking you to put it in writing in the next 60 seconds. If you're smart enough to do it now, you will, I promise, be one step closer to your dream than if you don't. This is basic logic. ~ From the InnerSelf.com article: Are You Giving Up? by Steve Rubin. © Reproductions Permitted http://www.InnerSelf.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Creative Control How does one go about gaining creative control of one's experience? By directing thought. By choosing what you think about. More importantly, by choosing how you want to feel. Pretend that you are a director, a creative director of a movie project, and there is an audience that will be viewing your product. So you decide in advance how you want this audience to feel. If you want them to be frightened, you make a really scary setting. You make it dark. You might even make it dirty or uncomfortable. If you want your audience to feel light-hearted and laugh, you might make it in a bright, happy setting. You would set the place, and the time of day, and you would adjust the lights to create the mood. And then you would parade your characters across the screen, and your characters would have definite personalities. And in their personalities they would interplay with one another. And in their interplay they would exchange words--and you would affect the response of your audience. In like manner, we're suggesting that you decide to gain dominant control of your vibrational offering by setting some scenes of your own. And we suggest really quick scene-setting, about 30 seconds is really good, where you decide where it will be, choosing, hopefully, something that feels good to you. You decide what the time of day is so that you set the lighting and evoke the mood from yourself. You then identify how you feel, even putting words to it, maybe even remembering things like it. Then you decide who else is going to be there with you, and you give them their attitudes or moods. And then you exchange just a few brief words--and in doing so, you affect your vibration. We've called this using your imagination; and we've also called it Deliberate Creating. We have noticed that most of you are vibrating in response to what is happening around you, but very few of you are deliberately conjuring images that cause you to offer a vibration. And in order to be the deliberate creator of your vibration, you have to be able to deliberately conjure some vibrations. That's the way you make a dominant vibration dominant on purpose. Practicing a thought, produces a vibration. If you practice this thought often enough it becomes the dominant vibration you are transmitting. Everything that's happening in your life is because of whatever vibration is dominant. Wouldn't it be nice if you could make that vibration dominant on purpose? Wouldn't it be nice that instead of vibrating as you learned to vibrate from your mother when you were 4, (and without knowing it you've just continued to practice that, so it still dominates your vibration today. So something that you've picked up a long time ago that doesn't have anything to do with who you now are or what you now want, is still controlling the way people respond to you, and controlling things that come to you, and controlling the way your body works and looks) wouldn't it be nice if you could today make another decision about how you want to attract, and make that vibration dominant? Don't you think it's worth a little bit of effort? We do. You now have creative control of your Life Experience. ~ Abraham-Hicks http://www.abraham-journal.com/index.php/weblog/more/you_have_creative_control_of_your_life/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Being Vs. Doing: How Much Effort Do You Need To Give? "Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you love to do, in order to have what you want." ~ Margaret Young "The formula for success is first Be, then Do, then Have. If our material abundance reflects the quality of our BEING, then how much do we focus on our DOING? As with everything in life, it's a matter of balance. Feeling abundant on its own will not meet our needs. As James Allen said, "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there." I have found there's a very different quality to my action when it springs from my sense of abundance as opposed to poverty consciousness. When I sense I don't have enough, I feel driven to be better and to have more. Whatever I do takes effort which I hope will bring me satisfaction in the future. (It doesn't, of course. Satisfaction can only be experienced in the present.) When I'm feeling abundant right now, I act out of my own inspiration to serve and to become more. And this action at times feels almost effortless. "How do we keep our inner fire alive? Two things, at minimum, are needed: an ability to appreciate the positives in our life – and a commitment to action. Every day, it's important to ask and answer these questions: What's good in my life? and What needs to be done?" ~ Nathaniel Branden © Reproductions Permitted http://www . yeartosuccess.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Are You Getting Better Every Day? "How can you NOT remain positive and optimistic knowing that in some way, every day, the quality of your life is getting better and better? This is not a hard task, even for those who consider themselves "over the hill". We are all endowed with the ability to make positive changes in our lives every day and literally become better people if we choose to." © Reproductions Permitted http://www . yeartosuccess.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Initiative Quotes of the Day ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I forgive myself for having believed for so long that...I was never good enough to have, get, be what I wanted. ~ Ceanne DeRohan "The best way to experience the power of fundamental choices is to make them." ~ Robert Fritz, in The Path of Least Resistance, p 198. "Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do." ~ John Wooden "Each thing that exists remains forever, and that very existence of existence is proof of its eternity. But without that realization, which is the knowledge of perfect being, man would never know whether there was existence or non-existence. If eternal existence is altered, then it must become more beautiful; and if it disappears, it must return with more sublime image; and if it sleeps, it must dream of a better awakening, for it is ever greater upon its rebirth." ~ Kahlil Gibran "The way of the creative works through change and transformation, so that each thing receives its true nature and destiny and comes into permanent accord with the great harmony: this is what furthers and what perseveres." ~ I Ching I saw them cross the twilight of an age, The sun-eyed children of a marvelous dawn, The great creators with wide brows of calm, The massive barrier breakers of the world And wrestlers with destiny in her lists of will, The labourers in the quarries of the gods, The messengers of the incommunicable, The architechts of immortality.
