"You are simultaneously on two journeys. One is a horizontal journey represented by the story line of your life: life events, encounters, experiences, relationships, and outcomes. The other is a vertical journey represented by what is going on inside you: joy, sorrow, peace, frustration, numbness or aliveness. While most people believe and act as if the horizontal journey is their purpose in living, in truth we are here for the vertical journey. Behind all of your worldly exploits, you are a spiritual being here to unfold to your highest personal reward and expression. If you get hung up on the outer journey but do not recognize the inner one, you will be lost and confused in a big game of Chutes and Ladders that has no meaning or direction. If you check in with your inner self often and make course corrections in the direction of authenticity and joy, you will stay on track and your life will have meaning, purpose, and reward."

TRUST and BELIEVE in the Laws of the Universe
All you must do is TRUST and BELIEVE in the Laws
of the Universe, utilize your own guidance system
to bring yourself incrementally, consistently and
eventually into vibrational alignment with the
things you are asking for.
And as you do that, those who watch you will stand
in amazement! They will begin to notice that you are
someone who launches an idea softly and stands in eager
anticipation of it, exclaiming as circumstances and
events give you constant evidence.
And they will also begin to recognize you as those who
are not one bit impatient about what has not yet come.
Because there is so much is consistently coming that
your plate is always full!
They will begin to notice you as those who are satified
where you are and eager for more. They will notice you
as those who are exploring contrast just like everyone
else. And launching desires, just like everyone else.
But deliberately trying to see the best of where you
stand, playing the positive what if game, looking for
reasons to feel good, trying your best to feel as good
as you can feel right where you stand.
Because you have discovered long ago that when you make
the worst of it, you move in the opposite direction of
what you are wanting. And when you make the best of it,
you move in the direction of where you are wanting.

Health Starts in the MIND
Guest: (A veterinarian who is now beginning to work with people) .. I have a tremendous fascination with structure and the biology aspect of it and have started to get invitations to speak to groups and I'm wondering how the biology and the spirituality connect - and the kinds of statements I can make to build these bridges.
Abraham: All of the biology - every bit of it - is following the vibration of the mind. Every bit of it, EVERY bit of it.
So the wellness that is being allowed, or the wellness that is being denied, is all about the mind set, the mood, the attitude, the practiced thoughts. There is not one exception in any human or beast that you'll ever discover. It's ALL that. Treating the body really is about treating the mind. Because you have discovered you can patch them up again and again and they will just find another way of reverting back to the natural rhythm of their mind, you see.
It's all psychosomatic - every bit of it - no exceptions.

Nothing is More Important than How I Feel NOW
"Make up your mind that nothing is more important than how I feel now, because now is everything. Now is the whole enchilada. Now is the power of me. Now, now, now, now, now… You might as well start somewhere, and it might as well be now. Why not start improving your life now, now, now?"

Seth on the Power of Imagination and Emotions
Imagination and emotions are the most concentrated forms of energy that you possess as physical creatures. Any strong emotion carries within it far more energy than, say, that required to send a rocket to the moon. Emotions, instead of propelling a physical rocket, for example, send thoughts from this interior reality through the barrier between nonphysical and physical into the objective world -- no small feat, and one that is constantly repeated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
To act in an independent manner, you must begin to initiate action that you want to occur physically by creating it in your own being. This is done by combining belief, emotion and imagination, and forming them into a mental picture of the desired physical result.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The path of experience is nowhere settled. There is no one road that does not have avenues to another. There are deep veins of probable actions ever available to you at any given time. Your imagination can be of great value, allowing you to open yourself to such courses; you can then use it to help you bring these into being.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Because you now distrust the imagination so, you do not understand the great clues it gives you, both in terms of problem solving and of creative expression. Many quite valid reincarnational memories come as imaginings, but you do not trust them. A good percentage of your problems can be worked out rather easily through the use of your imagination.

The Law of Attraction, Dating and "Near-Misses"
I have been reading this Abraham quote a lot lately:
I have been widowed for 18 months now and all during that time I have known that at some point I would want to have another relationship. My intention is and has always been "the right relationship with the right person at the right time".
Recently I have just known that it is time to start moving forward with my life. In so many ways, I feel like I have been reborn. I have a renewed zest for live and am so eager to get out in the world and have some fun. One of the things I have been doing is meeting people on an online dating site.
I have met some wonderful people who I know almost from the beginning are "not the one", but they are wonderful people. I have come to realize that every of them comes with a gift. Something I need to learn or know or ponder. Each one is more than a "near miss" it is a way to further clarify exactly what I want and I am grateful to have such an awesome and fun opportunity to "fine tune".
"You don't have to be pure and perfect to begin to be the recipient of avalanches of evidence of well being. In other words, you just have to tip the scale a little bit in order for you to begin to receive the evidence of it.
As you begin to tip the scale, you'll have some, what you will later call, "near-misses": Someone who initially looks pretty good will come in. And by closer scrutiny or exploration, you'll discover, "This isn't quite right," and you'll say, "Oh, Universe! You have foiled me again! (laughter) You have brought to me someone less than I want!"
And we say, Oh! It is just a near-miss! It is evidence that you're getting closer and closer. Don't you notice all of these things that were nearly right? And didn't the parts that weren't right help you to clarify more clearly what it is that you are wanting? And aren't you now sending off clearer signals about what you do want?
And as you're reaching for thoughts that feel good, are you not aligning to these yet clearer signals about what you are wanting? And is your future not brighter? Is it not more assured of satisfying you when it comes? And aren't you willing to sort of cool your jets and relax a little bit, and wait for the perfect timing of the unfolding of this?" -- Abraham-Hicks

The Only Thing You Have Any Power About
"See this world as a free world, and see everyone in it as trying - through their individual experiences - to find their way back to that calling, back to that Source Energy. And even though there are billions of them going about it in a way that is different than you would choose, there's no right or wrong way. In other words, bless them all, and get on with the only thing you have any power about, which is opening or closing your vortex to your natural state of Well-Being."

You are what THINK, not what you eat!
"You are what THINK, not what you eat- and to a large extent what you THINK about what you eat is far more important.
What you think about your body, health, and illness will determine how your food is used, and how your chemistry handles fats, for instance, or carbohydrates. Your attitudes in preparing meals are highly important.
Physically, it is true, but again generally speaking, that your body needs certain nourishments. But within that pattern there is great leeway, and the organism itself has the amazing capacity to make use of substitutes and alternates. The best diet in the world, by ANYONE'S standards, will not keep you healthy if you have a belief in illness."
- Seth, through Jane Roberts, from The Nature of Personal Reality

I Trust Myself & I Trust Life
I trust that Life will provide me with everything I need and want.
I know that I was born a beautiful and trusting soul. If things get difficult, I turn within and anchor my thoughts in truth and love. I ask for guidance from the Universe, and I make my way safely through stormy seas and calm, blissful weather. My job is to stay in the present moment and to choose clear, simple, positive thoughts and words. I trust the process of Life in all its mysterious and wondrous ways.
I trust myself, and I trust Life.

Unless you have 11 minutes right now, save this delicious treat for dessert.
The Importance of Who You Are
Begin saying, "I now understand that all things are possible. And while I, just like electricity or just like the workings of my engine, or whatever, I don't have to understand the intricacies of how it works, I know that it works. I know that anything that I am wanting to know, all manner of infinite intelligence is mine to be had. All I have to do is relax and trust that it is there."
All-That-Is works for your well-being and to answer anything that you want to know.
You are the center of your vibrational universe. And we could not begin to describe to you the resources that are at your disposal. We think that you do not understand the importance of who you are and the value that this leading edge personality in focus has to All-That-Is, you see.
Sometimes you treat yourselves like you are just unworthy humans here mucking your way through the mire in order to prove some sort of worthiness to someone else and we say it is so far different from that. You are Source Energy focused. You are important to All-That-Is. Everything is at your disposal. Nothing should be inconceivable to you.

Things that before now could not happen to you .... begin happening
When you talk about what you want and why you want it, there is initially less resistance within you than when you pose questions that you do not have answer for, like how, where, when, and who. It sets up a contradictory vibration within you that slows everything down....
Words like faith and trust are so annoying on some levels, but we want to explain their value, because even though you do not know how or where or when or who, if you know what, and you have talked 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 that things that before now could not happen to you .... begin happening. Ideas that would not even occur to you, before, now begin to occur to you, and interactions with people that you do not have access to now .... begin to happen.

The Best Question
The best question for you to put forth to the Universe with an expectation of receiving an answer is:
Where is my greatest joy?
That is the most powerful question.
What makes me happy?
What could I do today that would bring me the greatest amount of joy?
What places in this city would be of most uplifting nature to me?
What programs that are listed in the guide for television would be for my best interest?
What books in the great bookstore should I gravitate towards?
What is of most uplifting nature to me?
I want to find it!
And you will find floodgates opening and all kinds of new experiences pouring in.

Law of Attraction
It is my dominant intent to look for what I want to see.
As you deliberately look for things to appreciate, praise, or enjoy, you achieve vibrational harmony with your own Source, and with all that is good.
And then, the powerful Law of Attraction brings more good things to you.

You are in the Perfect Position to Get There from Here
When you drive your vehicle from place to place, you have an awareness of your starting place as well as awareness of where you are going. You accept that you cannot get there instantaneously, you accept that you will travel the distance, and in time you will arrive at your destination. And while you may feel anxious to get there, and maybe even tire of the journey, you do not get so discouraged at the midway mark that you just turn around and go back to your starting place. You do not drive back and forth and back and forth from your starting point to the midway point and then finally collapse from the never ending journey.
You do not announce your inablilty to accomplish your journey. You accept the distance between your starting place and where you desire to be-- and you continue to move in the direction of your destination. You understand what is required-- and you do it. And we want you to come to know that the journey between where you are and where you want to be-- on all subjects-- can be just as easily understood.
Abraham-Hicks, "Ask and It is Given"-----page 37

To Know Your Power
Because you counter the majority of your thoughts with opposing thoughts, you believe that you are not powerful.
When you no longer split your flow of energy with contradictory thoughts, you will know your power.

Happiness = Inner Peace
The type of happiness you should strive for is not temporary excitement. It is a deep peace and love inside. The type of happiness which will stand you in good stead through the remainder of your life, and which you can achieve without any change in outside events, is a feeling of deep connection with all that is, a reaching up into love, faith, connection and joy and a reaching down into peace, a well of peace deep inside that nothing can touch. Even in the direst outer circumstances, you can find that deep peace inside and you can surround yourself with the love of the benevolent and caring universe by simply stepping into it and allowing its grace and beauty to surround you.
Does this sound too easy? It is simple, but it may not be easy at first. It requires daily discipline. It requires that you shift your thinking from the future into now. It requires that you shift your emotional response from the outer-driven to the inner-driven. It requires that you connect with the world around you in new ways, taking from it what is beautiful and wonderful, connecting with it in compassion and caring, but keeping your own self intact, like a shining star inside that never dims. It requires that you reinforce your own star and shine every morning without fail and that you continually seek connection with beauty and wonder, letting the cruel remark and act of betrayal pass over you and allowing the wonder of one leaf, one rose petal, one song, to penetrate deeply.
You can learn to do this. And when you do, you will carry peace within you at all times, you will wear love like a warm cloak, you will shine with grace, you will glow with happiness that cannot be dampened, that does not come and go with success and failure in other people's eyes.
Inner peace, deep love, joy and light. These are your happiness. And they are yours, right now.

Life is all About Finding Joy
You can choose your thoughts, your focus. And therein lies all your power. The power to create whatever lives you want, despite outward appearances and circumstances.
You can choose to live from the inside out, or from the outside in. You can let what’s "out there" create your joy or lack of it. Or you can let what’s "in here," in your hearts, create your joy. And then you will be totally free of the shackles of circumstances and the world "out there."
Friends, when you can find joy in your heart, no matter what your outer circumstances are, then you will have found the true meaning of life.
Life is all about finding joy, about remembering who you are and why you are here.
Joy is the answer. Joy is the meaning of your lives.

How can I be happy when?
We can tell from you that if you will put these questions to yourself, "How can I be happy when?" and then make your statement of what you think's gone awry. And then do your best to be a little more happy even though that has happened, what's going to happen is you are going to shore up your vibration until those things just fall by the wayside.
Do you know if you could answer the question and fulfill the answer, "How can I be happy when my house hasn't sold?" If you could ask that question for about 30 days, to the point that within that 30 days you are not unhappy because the house hasn't sold, it will sell!
If you ask the question, "How can I be happy when I haven't found my life partner?" if you could ask that question for about 30 days until you're happy even though you haven't found what you consider to be your life partner, that partner would walk through the door and you would recognize them. It has to be that way!
When you find the way of soothing your own angst, which is the only thing that is keeping you from being a vibrational match.
Here's the picture:
You are getting a watered down version of what you are wanting.
So you ask that question and bring yourself into closer and closer alignment with what you want, now, you are offering one signal. It has to come into your experience now, it has to, it can't NOT! It's not possible for you to not get what you want. It is not possible, unless you are holding yourself in a position of split energy.
