Ask and It Is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires
Quotes from the Book
would not have deliberately attracted if you had been doing it on purpose, but much of your attraction is not done by deliberate intent, but rather by default…. It is important to understand that you get what you think about, whether you want it or not. And chronic thoughts about unwanted things invite, or ask for, matching experiences. The Law of Attraction makes it so. Relationships, or co-creating with others,
The more you think of things that please you, the better you will feel. The better you feel, the better things will go for you.
Simply put, if someone had not prodded you into more expansion, you could not feel the pain of not keeping up with that expansion. The interaction,
No one is more qualified than you to set the standards for you.
When your current thought is not resonating with what your Inner Being knows about the subject, your negative emotion indicates the disharmony
The less you think of trouble, the less of it you get. The less you think of your parents trying to control you, the less they try to control you. The more you think of things that please you, the better you will feel. The better you feel, the better things will go for you.
Without the diversity, there would be complacency and endedness.
Anger and hatred and condemnation are not symbols of alignment with God—but indicators of misalignment with that which you call God.
Finding lack in others is not the path to liking what you see in yourself. If you are a person who has trained yourself to look for positive aspects, you will find them in yourself as well as in others. If you are a person who has trained yourself to look for negative aspects, you will find them in yourself as well as in others. Therefore, it is always accurate to say that no one who is critical of others really likes themselves. It defies Law. Whenever you see those who are very critical of others, you are actually seeing people who do not like themselves.
by acknowledging that you want to feel good, and that you want to have a life experience that is in harmony with what is good. And if you start there,
Make lists of positive aspects about the people around you, the people from your past, and yourself.
We would define a belief as a thought you continue to think.
You can get a running start on a day of aligned Energy as you put yourself to bed the night before: Find things in your immediate vicinity—such as your bed, your bed linens, and your pillow—to direct your appreciation toward. Then set your intention to sleep well and to awaken refreshed. When you find yourself awake in the morning, lie in more appreciation for at least five minutes, and then refresh yourself by bathing and eating. Then, sit for 15 minutes and quiet your mind. Feel whatever resistance you may have fall away, and feel your Vibration rise. Then open your eyes, and sit for five or ten minutes writing a list of things you appreciate about your life.
What feels like love, is—and what feels like hate is not love.
The message that you want to convey to the others with whom you are co-creating is this: “I will never hold you responsible for the way I feel. I have the power to focus myself into alignment with my Source, and therefore I have the power to keep myself feeling good.” If that is your true intention, then you have discovered the path, the only path, to true freedom and true happiness. But if your happiness is dependent upon the intentions or beliefs or behaviors of any other, you are trapped, for you cannot control any of that.
if you will listen to the call of that Source and Vibrationally feel for it, and listen and move consistently in the direction of the thoughts that feel better, you will, before you know it, close the Vibrational gap between you and You on every subject that’s active within you; and you will then be the joyous, progressive, fulfilled, intuitive, loving, vital, exhilarated Being that you were born to be.
You did not believe that you were coming into physical form to right past wrongs, or to fix a broken world, or even to evolve (in the sense that you were currently lacking in something). Instead you knew this physical experience would be an environment that would provide a balance of contrast from which you would personally make increasingly improved choices that would add to your own expansion, as well as to he collective expansion of All That Is.
Me comprometo a conectar mis pensamientos en una dirección positiva para mantener mi conexión con la Fuente y el amor, que son mi verdadera naturaleza y con ello, siempre te daré lo mejor de mi
now, to whatever you perceive as a better-feeling experience. Here are a couple of examples of flawed premises under which I operated for many years. Note how
The way to avoid repeating unwanted situations is to talk about wanted situations. Talk about what you do want; and discontinue dialogue about any unwanted experiences
When you master the Art of Allowing your consistent alignment with the Source within you—every other relationship will be beneficial and pleasurable.
The people you would describe as having “exceptional ability” are usually those who are in alignment with who-they-really-are. The brilliance or clarity or intuitiveness that denotes “exceptional ability” are also characteristics of a person in alignment.
And the feeling of Connection that people are looking for
But the belief that another person is “making” you happy is incorrect. Your happiness is your natural state of being.
You must first find harmony between you and You
