- Learning to Manifest Your Desires
- When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change
- Meditation: Sit in a quiet room. Wear comfortable clothing, and focus on your breathing. As your mind wanders, and it will, release the thought and focus upon your breathing
- I, [Name], see and draw to me, through divine love, those beings who seek enlightenment through my process. The sharing will elevate us both now
- Part 1: things that we know, that you may have forgotten, which are important to remember
- When you understand the power of feeling good now, no matter what, you will hold the key to the achievement of any state of being, any state of health, any state of wealth, or any state of anything you desire
- There is nothing that you cannot be, do, or have
- You are the creator of your own reality
- You were born with an innate knowledge that you do create your own reality
- When you began to integrate into your society, you began to accept much of the same picture that others held of the way your life should unfold
- It is not possible for anyone else to create your reality
- You are the creator of your own experience, and there is such satisfaction in intentionally guiding your own life
- By consciously choosing the direction of your thoughts, you can be in constant connection with Source Energy, with God, with joy, and with all that you consider to be good
- Well-being is the basis of this universe
- Well-being flows to you and through you. You have only to allow it. Like the air you breathe, you have only to open, relax, and draw it into your being
- You are not here on a quest to move forward—you are here to experience outrageous joy
- The reason you have not already gotten what you desire is because you are holding yourself in a vibrational holding pattern that does not match the vibration of your desire
- Gently and gradually, piece by piece, release your resistant thoughts, which are the only disallowing factors involved
- Feelings of increased tension, anger, frustration, and so on, have been your indicators that you have been adding to your resistance
- You cannot be separated from Source. Source is never separated from you
- The only fit of resistance, or hinderance of your connection to that which is Source, is offered by you from your physical perspective
- Once you align with your desire, the non-physical energy that creates worlds will flow through you… which means enthusiasm, passion, and triumph. That is your destiny
- Put yourself in a vibrational place of receiving all that you are asking for
- When you are consciously aware of your own thoughts, and you are deliberately offering them, then you are the deliberate creator of your own reality
- Ask and it is given
- You ask through your attention, through your wanting, through your desire—that is the asking. You do not have to use your words. You just have to feel it in your being: I desire this. I adore this. I appreciate this. That desire is the beginning of all attraction
- You never grow tired of expansion or of creation, for there is no ending to the new ideas of desires that flow
- Once you relax into the idea that you will never cease to be, that new desires will be constantly born within you, that Source will never stop answering your desires, and that your expansion is, therefore, eternal, then you may begin to relax
- It is our desire that you become one who is happy with that which you are and with that which you have—while at the same time being eager for more. That is the optimal creative vantage point: to stand on the brink of what is coming, feeling eager, optimistic anticipation—with no feeling of impatience, doubt, or unworthiness hindering the receiving of it—that is the Science of Deliberate Creation at its best
- The Law of Attraction: That which is like unto itself is drawn
- As your experience causes you to launch vibrational rockets of desires , you must then find ways of holding yourself consistently in vibrational harmony with those desires in order to receive their manifestation
- Whatever you are giving your attention to causes you to emit a vibration, and the vibrations that you offer equal your asking, which equals your point of attraction
- If there is something you desire that you currently do not have, you need only put your attention upon it, and, by the Law of Attraction, it will come to you, for as you think about this thing or experience that you desire, you offer a vibration, and then, by Law, that very thing or experience must come to you
- The easiest way for you to achieve vibrational harmony with what you desire is to imagine having it, present that it is already in your experience, flow your thoughts toward the enjoyment of the experience, and as you practice those thoughts and begin to consistently offer that vibration, you will then be in the place of allowing that into your experience
- By paying attention to the way you feel, you can easily know if you are giving your attention to your desire or if you are giving it to the absence of your desire
- When your thoughts are a vibrational match to your desire, you feel good—your emotional range would be from contentment to expectation to eagerness to joy. But if you are giving your attention to the lack, or absence, of your desire—your emotions would range from feelings of pessimism to worry to discouragement to anger to insecurity to depression
- Worrying is using your imagination to create something you do not want
- Nothing can occur in your life experience without your invitation of it through your thought
- You get what you think about
- When you are aware of what you are thinking about, then you are in the position to exercise absolute control of your own experience
- There is a very big vibrational difference in your thoughts of appreciation of your mate, and in your thoughts of what you would like to be different about your mate. And your relationship with your mate, without exception, reflects the preponderance of your thoughts. For, while you may not have done it consciously, you have literally thought your relationship into being
- Even though it may seem odd to you at first, it will be helpful for you to begin to accept yourself as a Vibrational Being, for this is a Vibrational Universe in which you are living, and the Laws that govern this Universe are Vibrationally based
- No matter what has caused your unique point of view to come about—it has come about. You do exist; you are thinking; you are perceiving; you are asking—and you are being answered. And All-That-Is is benefitting from your existence and from your point of view
- The Art of Allowing is the art of no longer resisting the Well-Being that you deserve; the Well-Being that is natural; the Well-Being that is your legacy, your Source, and your very Being
- The Stream of Well-Being flows even if you do not understand it does, but when you consciously become aligned with it, your creative endeavors become so much more satisfying, for then you discover that there is absolutely nothing that you desire that you cannot achieve
- There is only a Stream of Well-Being that flows. You can allow it or resist it, but it flows just the same
- The degree that you feel blessed and expect good things to flow to you, this indicates the level of your state of allowing
- Whether you allow it or resist it, the stream is constantly flowing to you, never ending, never tiring, always there for your reconsideration
- You are a vibrational transmitter, and you are broadcasting your signal in every moment of your existence
- The only way to deliberately withdraw your attention from one thought is to give your attention to another
- There is no exclusion in this attraction based universe. Your focus is the invitation. Your attention to it is the invitation
- Your emotions are about your relationship with your Source
- You are empowered beings; you are utterly free to create, and when you know that, and are focused upon things that are in vibrational harmony with that, you feel absolute joy
- The Creative Process
- Step 1: You ask
- Your asking is sometimes spoken with your words, but more often it emanates from you vibrationally as a constant stream of personally honed preferences, each building on the next
- Step 2: The answer is given
- All things that you ask for, large and small, are immediately understood and fully offered, without exception
- When you ask, it is given. Every time
- Step 3: The answer, which has been given, must be received or allowed
- Unless you are in the receiving mode, your questions, even though they have been answered, and your desires will not be fulfilled—not because your wishes have not been heard, but because your vibrations are not a match, so you are not letting them in
- What you think and what you get is always a perfect vibrational match, so it can be very helpful to make a conscious correlation between what you are thinking and what is manifesting in your life experience, but it is even more helpful if you are able to discern where you are headed even before you get there
- As long as you are more aware of what you do not want regarding this situation, what you do want cannot come to you
- Once you understand that your thoughts equal your point of attraction and that the way you feel indicates your level of allowing or resisting, you now hold the key to creating anything that you desire
- Once your focused attention has sufficiently activated a dominant vibration within you, things will begin to make their way into your personal experience. It is Law
- There is only a stream of wellness, which you are allowing or resisting, and you can tell by the way you feel which you are doing
- You are supposed to thrive. You are supposed to feel good. You are good. You are loved, and wellbeing is constantly flowing to you, and if you will allow it, it will manifest in all manner of ways in your experience
- Once you allow this new orientation and begin to accept yourself as a Vibrational Being who attracts all the things that come into your experience, then you will begin the delicious journey into Deliberate Creation
- When emotions feel bad you are in a state of disallowing that he fulfillment of your desire
- It is not your job to make something happen—Universal Forces are in place for all of that
- Your work is to simply determine what you want
- Pay attention to the way you feel, and deliberately choose thoughts—about everything—that feel good to you when you think them
- You are a perfect yet expanding being, in a perfect yet expanding world, in a perfect yet expanding universe
- Every physical being on your planet is your partner in co-creation, and if you would accept that and appreciate the diversity of beliefs and desires—all of you would have more expansive, satisfying, and fulfilling experiences
- Since you are clear about which ingredients enhance your creation and which ones do not enhance it, you feel no concern about the great variety of ingredients that exist
- You understood that there is room enough in this expansive Universe for all manner of thought and experience. You had every intention of being deliberate about your own creative control of your own life experience and your own creations—but you had no intentions of trying to control the creations of others
- Just because others may choose differently, it did not make you right and them wrong, or them right and you wrong. You understood the value of diversity
- The Universe expands and we are always on the Leading Edge of the expansion. It is a never-ending, always flowing, pure, positive Energy expansion
- When you stay aligned with your Energy Stream, you always win, and somebody else does not have to lose for you to win. There is always enough
- In an attempt to please another, you discover that no matter how hard you try, you cannot consistently move in any pleasing direction, and so, you not only do not please them, but you also do not please yourself. And because you are being pulled in so many different directions, you path to where you want to be usually gets lost in the process
- The greatest gift that you could ever give to another is your own happiness, for when you are in a state of joy, happiness, or appreciation, you are fully connected to the Streak of pure, positive Source Energy that is truly who you are
- Every good feeling; every positive creation; all your abundance, clarity, health, vitality, and Well-Being—and all the things that you consider to be good, are dependent upon the way you are feeling right now and on the relationship that that feeling-vibration has to the vibration of who you really are and what you really desire
- Choosing a different thought will always produce a different emotional response
- If you take the time to consciously determine the emotion that you are currently experiencing, then any improvement in your feeling means that you are making progress toward your goal, while any intensifying of the negative emotion means that you are going in the wrong direction
- There is no condition so severe that you cannot reverse it by choosing different thoughts
- No one else knows what is appropriate for you—but you do. You always know in the moment what is best for you
- The standard of success is absolutely the amount of joy you feel
- If you are not selfish enough to deliberately align with the Energy of your Source, you have nothing to give anyway
- By your being well, you are in no way depriving another of the experience of wellness
- No one connected to Source Energy would ever cause harm to another. They lash out in their defensiveness, or in their disconnectedness, but never from their state of connection
- The ultimate act of selfishness is to connect with Self. And when you do that, you are pure, positive Energy focused in this physical body
- If everyone on your planet were connected to their own Source Energy, there would be no assaults, for there would be no jealousy, insecurity, or uncomfortable feelings of competition. If everyone understood the power of their own Being, they would not seek to control others. Any feelings of insecurity and hatred are born from your disconnection with who you are. Your (selfish) connection with Well-Being would bring only Well-Being.
- When desire and belief are present within you, things will quickly and easily unfold in your experience
- The value in recognizing your emotions and then consciously working to offer thoughts in order to deliberately produce better feeling emotions is truly what Deliberate Creation is
- You are free. You are powerful. You are good. You are loved. You have value. Do you have purpose. All is well
- The thing that matters most is that you consciously reach for a feeling that is improved
- There are really only two emotions: one feels good, and one feels bad
- The better you feel, the more you are aligned with who you really are
- If you do not do something that causes a different vibrational offering, then nothing in your experience can change
- The key to success hinges upon your ability to release resistance, and the more playful you are, the less resistance you hold
- Process #1: The Rampage of Appreciation

- There is nothing more important than that you feel good—and there is nothing better than creating images that cause you to feel good
- Process #5: The Prosperity Game
- Process #6: The Process of Meditation
- You can replace all hindering beliefs with life-giving beliefs
- Nothing is more important than that I feel good. And I’m going to find ways to do so today. I’m going to begin my day by meditating and bringing myself into alignment with my Source Energy. And as I move through the day, I’m going to look for opportunities to appreciate, so that all day long I’ll bring myself back into Source Energy. If there’s an opportunity to praise, I’m going to praise. If there’s an opportunity to criticize, I’m going to keep my mouth shut and try to meditate. If I feel like criticizing, I’ll say “here kitty, kitty,” and I’ll pet my cat till that feeling goes away

- You can and will create anything that you are giving your attention to

- Process #10: The Place Mar Process

- Process #11: Segment Indexing

- Process #14: The Process of Clearing Clutter for Clarity

- Process #15: The Wallet Process
- Process #16: Pivoting
- Many of us would not have such a difficult time feeling good if we were in an environment where there was not so much negative influence around us
- I’m feeling some negative emotion, which means that I’m in the process of attractive what I don’t want. What is it that I do want?
- Pivoting is the continual, hour-after-hour, segment-after-segment process whereby you choose the positive
- Process #17: The Focus Wheel Process
- Process #18: Finding the Feeling-Place
- Process #19: Releasing Resistance to Become Free of Debt
- What better way could anyone spend money than by putting it back into the economy that gives more people work?
- The more you spend, the more people benefit, and the more people get in on the game and dovetail with you
- Your role is to utilize energy. That is why you exist. You are an energy-flowing being
- You cannot get poor enough to help impoverished people thrive. It is only in your thriving that you have anything to offer anyone. If you want to be of help to others, be as tapped in, tuned in, and turned on as you can possibly be
- Money is not the root of happiness, but it is not the root of evil either
- The standard of success in life is not the money or the stuff—the standard of success is absolutely the amount of joy you feel
- Success is about a happy life, and a happy life is just a string of happy moments. But most people do not allow the happy moments because they are so busy trying to get a happy life
- Instead of “earning” abundance, “allow” your abundance
- Decide what you want to experience, and then allow it in order to receive it
- You are powerful creators, and you are right on schedule
- Savor more; fix less. Laugh more; cry less
- Process #20: Turning It Over to the Manager
