We would like you to release the word “achieve” or “earn” from your vocabulary and from your understanding, altogether; and we would like you to replace those words with the word “allow”. You’re wanting to allow your Well-being, not achieve it. It’s not something that you need to earn. All you have to do is decide what it is you would like to experience, and then allow it in order to achieve it. It isn’t something you have to struggle for or try for. You are all worthy beings. You are deserving of this Well-being.

—Abraham

This is a very important concept and I’d like you to take a look at your language (verbally and internally) this week. Once you realize the reality of this it will release so much stress  from you life because it’s that feeling that you have to strive and work hard to get something or somewhere that puts the pressure on you. Along with the pressure comes the feeling of lack. You wouldn’t be trying to “earn” something if you weren’t missing it in your life.

Remember that you have everything you need – the Universe has produced it for you as soon as you proclaimed that it was something you wanted. Once you determined that there was something you wanted, the Universe brought it to your door. The only thing you have to do is open the door and allow it to come in. Although this quote refers to well-being, it applies to everything in your life.

Pay attention to the things you think about having to achieve or earn. Set your internal watchdog to identify these words in your thoughts. When you do find them creeping into your conscious mind, take control and immediately change the wording to “allow”.

See if this makes any difference and let us know by putting your results in the comments box.

You cannot have a happy ending to an unhappy journey.

—Abraham

Excerpted from the workshop: Atlanta, GA on September 13, 1997

What a wonderfully simple statement this is.  If you don’t do something about your unhappiness, you will remain unhappy. Why is that? Because of the Law of Attraction. You attract what you focus on, what you spend your time thinking about. If that’s things or circumstances that make you unhappy, then that’s what you’ll get more of.  Why would you want to get more unhappiness? You wouldn’t intentionally do that I don’t think. But when your life’s thought patterns and beliefs have led you to focus on lack, illness, unhappiness, poor relationships, then that’s what the Law of Attraction will bring you more of. The Law of Attraction doesn’t even know what’s good or bad to you. It just brings you what you are focusing on.

So what do you do to change this? That’s not so easy by yourself and that’s why I continue to recommend getting a coach (a Life Coach, a Law of Attraction Coach, any type of coach). Your coach will help you identify what it is you are focusing on – often you’re not even aware of these things. But a coach will help you recognize what you’re saying, thinking and feeling. Once you can recognize the habits you are perpetuating, you have a much better chance of stopping them and redirecting your thoughts to more positive thoughts and feelings.

Retrieve one of the Kodak Moments I talk about all the time. Focus on that as soon as you notice you’re headed down an old pathway that will take you directly (or even indirectly) to your unhappiness. If you then focus on the Kodak Moment, then you’ll be able to direct your thoughts and feelings in the happiness direction.

Write down your Kodak Moments in a journal or on an index card where you can have them handy in case things are so rough you can’t just recall them from memory. Once you start to feel icky, pull out your card and then select one to use at this particular time to feel better. Keep focusing on that and repeat the phrase “Nothing and no one can interfere with my peace of mind, prosperity and well being, not even myself”.

Try it this week!

We want to help you regain clarity about your individual power. Everyone has it. No one can ever take it away from you. No one can ever do anything “bad” to you. No one can assert into your experience. Everything, without exception, comes only by your individual invitation to it. Do you understand the process of asking? When you give something your attention and it becomes your dominant vibration relative to the subject—that is your asking. So, deliberate creating is not so much about looking out into the world and saying, “Oh, there are things that are good that I want to create or attract into my experience, and there are things that are bad that I don’t want to create or attract into my experience.” Deliberate creating is more about deliberate allowing. Deliberate allowing is more like deliberate vibration.

—Abraham

Excerpted from the workshop: San Francisco, CA on March 08, 2003

It’s important to grasp the essence of this quote – you have power! It is yours and as Abraham said, no one can take it away from you.  Have you ever caught yourself saying “you hurt my feelings”? If you have individual power, how can someone outside of you hurt YOUR feelings? You have chosen to feel hurt by something that person did or said. Another person might not react the same way.

It’s essential that we recognize this and acknowledge it. Take responsibility for how we feel. We cannot blame it on other people. If we do, we abdicate all our power and become puppets. I know that at times all of us feel as if we have absolutely no control. But if we’re able to remove ourselves from that situation for a bit, we’ll be able to see that we actually still do have control and can extract ourselves from it. Once we’re able to recognize that, our feelings will improve almost immediately.

The problem we have is that we either don’t take the opportunity to go someplace else to regroup or we don’t want to. We might want to feel like a victim, at least for awhile anyway. That may be what we need in order for the momentum of that moment to run out. But it’s better for our focus and discipline if we can remove ourselves and redirect our thoughts and feelings.

You have two choices this week – one is to just let things happen and then journal about what you observed and what you did or didn’t do.

The other choice is to make a conscious effort to remove yourself when a situation develops that has your momentum heading south. See if you can redirect it. Then journal about that too.

Let me know how things went.

“The Law of Attraction states that you are basically a magnet, attracting the images that are inside your head.”
by Frank Mangano

If you think of the Law of Attraction in this way, it might help you focus on good images and generate good feelings/vibrations. Think of carrying a magnet around in your pocket all the time. You will pay attention to what you’re walking near so you only attract what you want to attract (coins for instance) and avoid things you don’t want being drawn up to your pocket (like nails, screws, scrap metal).

So why shouldn’t you do the same with your life. Use that magnet and pull in more of the things you want in your life. Think of the Corona Beer Ads with the two people sitting on the beach and looking out into the ocean.  They are attracting more beauty, peace, reverence (and beer, of course) into their life by creating the tranquil scene in their world. You can do the same thing using the Kodak Moments or visualizing something or someone beautiful in your life.

As you focus on that thing or person, the Universe will know that you want more of it and will immediately bring it to you. Then, your only other job is to allow it into your life. No more of the “I’m unworthy” or “I don’t deserve such good things” etc. Just picture it being in your life and when you can, think about how much you do deserve it and how much you want it.

If you have to just picture the magnet in your body (think of the “u” part of the magnet as your upper torso and the legs as your arms reaching out to receive).

Practice this image – you are the magnet, when you see (or think about) something you want more of, walk toward it and spread out your arms and visualize it coming into your life. When you see something (or feel it) that you do NOT want in your life, turn around and put your arms at your side. Visualize yourself pushing it away. Make this a game.

See what happens this week as you play magnet. Let us know by commenting below.

You cannot judge the value of a life by its quantity. It is by the joy that you are feeling. The more joyful you are, the longer you live. Let yourself relax and breathe and be free and be joyous, and romp. The optimum physical life experience is to have plenty of things that stimulate you to desire, and an awareness of the way you feel, so you’re reaching for thoughts that feel good—so you’re wide open, so you’re tuned in, tapped in, and turned on. We promise you, the timing of your death is always chosen by you.

—Abraham

Excerpted from the workshop: Chicago, IL on September 07, 2002

Joy is really the aim in life. You always hear about the poorest person in the world also being the happiest.  It’s not really about the items and everything that surrounds you. It’s about the joy you experience. And that Joy can’t be dependent on someone else either. For instance, it can’t be “I’m experiencing joy because I love Joe”.  You can always tap into the joy you have inside. That’s another of the “Kodak moments” I talk about all the time.

The most ideal form of joy is that which you feel “knowing” you have an item but it hasn’t materialized yet. Remember there is a difference between manifestation (which happens when you think about something and have told the Universe you want that thing) and materialization (which is when it actually shows up in your life as an object/thing). The greatest joy is when, once you’ve manifested something (given the Universe your order), feeling the joy that you experience knowing it’s yours – BEFORE it even shows up.

Try it this week. Be joyful whenever you think of having something. Give appreciation/Gratitude to the Universe for bringing it to you even before the physical materialization. In that appreciation and gratitude experience the beautiful joy you have knowing that you’ve asked and it’s been delivered. Don’t second guess the fact that it hasn’t materialized yet. Just accept that it’s on its way

Write and dialogue about this concept and your results this week.
