Quotes on Decisions

[spiritualcookie]

“Make a decision and then make it right. There just are no wrong decisions.”

-

“Make more decisions everyday.
Because a decision is a summoning of life.
That's why a little chaos is good for you,
because often you don't make a decision until you get yourself in a jam.
And then, in the middle of the jam, you make a decision, but that decision summons Life Force.”

[Paradise-on-Earth]

The Acting-Process

HS:
As an actor sometimes I morph and I don't look at it as me, stepping outside of myself.
I look at as me becoming in the moment.

Abe:
What is your preparation when you are attempting, or getting ready to receive inspiration
about a character that you might express?
-Is the character placed in his mood or attitude?
-Is the character placed in his circumstance?

Because it's only once you understand those things, and you're actually able to
acknowledge and emanate the mood, the MOOD of your character,
that the appropriate words would then flow through.

HS:
On camera or in pictures, a lot of people say:
"That's not you!" or "that doesn't look like you at all!" and I say, "Isn't that cool? That's my job."
But I look at it as frames per second on camera as same as frames per second in time-space reality.
And just capturing the essence of who I am. So, if I focus that essence while it's being captured,
it's logical that what you watch back on the tape may not even physically resemble Who I am now,
because that was my focus but...

Abe (interrupting):
That is the best description of deliberate creation that we've ever heard!!
Because everyone is an actor in the sense, that they get to project whatever vibration that they
choose to project.

But if everyone who's listening in, would understand that deliberate creation is just exactly that:
-Understand the role you want to play,
-and find its vibrational emotional basis first,
-and then practice that, so that that's who you ARE.

When you are an actor with other actors around you,
they're responding to who you are, because you are emanating who you are.
And it would be illogical for them to not react to who you actually are.
Well, this is the way the entire universe is responding to you!
The universe is responding to EACH of you.

You are an actor in a role, and everything and everyone else is responding to that
which you are emanating, you see! So, you just need to decide:
Am I a prosperous person, standing here in this role that the universe is reacting to?
Am I a revered and respected co-worker in this environment-
or am I someone that gets beat up and picked on?

Who am I?
Who am I now, what has life brought me to? Who am I, as I stand in this point of Attraction?
Because everyone else is responding to who you are.

This is why everyone who has ever written a movie, wants a really good Cornerstone-
Key Actor. Because they know, you get an actor like that- you just need one actor
like that, an actor that is really in sync with who he is and what's going on!
He will extract from everyone that interacts with him the exact performance or behavior.

You can set the tone in your family!
You can set the tone at your work.
You can set the tone in the part of traffic that's driving where you are!
You are the center of this universe!

HS:
I've been in a situation of, an actor- maybe he's not up to speed, will kind of like
break the scene, and I'm like, how that happened? -Cuz, then I fall off the momentum
and I can feel falling off the momentum...

Abe:
We would spend no time figuring out how well someone is going to respond to you.
That's their job. And if you try to get in their head, then you've lost your character:
You've forgotten who you are.

That's what happens to people all day every day!
You get in the head of your kids, or you get in the head of your mates. Or, you get in
the head of your friends! When you try to dawn the perspective of another, you've
lost your point of attraction. And now, they don't know what to do, you see!

So, just stay in character, friends! Define who you are, and stay in character.
If they throw you off, then they were the dominant character, weren't they?
You're the lead! And everyone else is a cooperative component, who will read your script,
and fill in the pieces- exactly as you have defined it, by the vibrational frequency
that you offer.

Outtake:




DELIBERATE CREATION IS JUST EXACTLY THAT:
-UNDERSTAND THE ROLE YOU WANT TO PLAY.
-And find it's VIBRATIONAL; EMOTIONAL BASIS FIRST-
-and then PRACTICE THAT, so that's WHO YOU ARE.

When you are actor with other actors around you, they'r responding
to who you are. Because you are emanating who you are,
and it would be illogical to them to not react to who you actually are.

Well, this is how the whole Universe is responding to you!
The Universe is responding to each of you!
You are an actor in a role. And EVERYTHING and EVERYONE else
is responding to that which you are emanating, you see!

So, you just need to decide:
Am I a prosperous person, standing here in this role,
that the Universe is reacting to?
Am I a revered and respected co-worker, in this environment?
Or am I someone that gets beat up, and picked on?

WHO AM I?
Who has life brought me to? Who am I, as I stand in THIS point of attraction?

Decide which game you want to play

So often people have one foot in the "physical world action" game and one foot in the "let's line up with the laws of the universe" game, and you really can't have it both ways.

In other words, you either acknowledge that you are a source energy being, who has projected yourself here into the physical, and that the physical has caused you to become more, and you are working to come into alignment with that, and when you do you harness the energy that creates worlds, and then you are tuned-in tapped-in turned-on, and then life comes easily to you.

Or, you are part of the struggle.

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Contrast is Choices!

Just train yourself, not to suffer over the choices, but to delight over your ability to make a choice and then to completely put yourself into the choice - even if it was just drinking water instead of Pepsi, or Coca Cola instead of beer.

In other words, it doesn't matter what choice you make, revel in the choice and line up with it completely and give yourself over to it completely, and you will ready yourself for getting inside this vibrational escrow because life will never cease to be a myriad of choices.

It's just, that the plethora of choices get better and better and better and better and better.

If it feels good, it means: Source agrees with this thought!

Abraham Hicks

[Paradise-on-Earth]

What you activate- and appreciate becomes MORE!

Years ago, we offered a process called "my book of positive aspects",
where you take a page- and it can be a person, it can be an experience, it can be a job, it can be anything!- and just take your best shot at writing the positive aspects. Because when you look for aspects that feel good to you, you're sharpening up your bag of marbles. And when you do that, the Law of Attraction will not let you down! And you will have a conscious awareness, that you just did that:

"I (clicking) put it in my bag, on purpose. And almost as soon as I turn around, something reflects that. And when I'm aware of it, I'm empowered!"
But if you're just running around, talking about things you want and things you don't want, and how things are and how you'd like things to be- then you've just got such a mixed bag going on. Than it feels like it's chance, or it feels like somebody else is doing it- when nobody else is doing it! Not ever! It's all 100% you. 100% you!

What kind of marbles do you want to put in your bag? Don't you want your marbles that are in this bag, to match up the marbles that are in that bag? What do you think is in that bag? What do you think, your Inner Being is focused on, on your behalf? What's in there?

More money? More opportunity? More rendering with more people? More ideas exploding into the room? More fun every day? More free time? More time to do what you really want, to do more? Freedom to choose your projects?
-You get to have it more your way!


from the youtube-clip "I am Ready For The Major Breakthroughs Awaits! ~ Abraham Hicks Ideas"

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Chronic physical Pain is the Indicator of many Desires, that you are denying yourself to fulfill!
-Indecision.
(same trains of thought as with not having enough money!)


HS:
I'm kind of new to thinking this way, and I can feel everything feels right, with what you're saying. Does it work physically, too?

Abe: Yeah.

HS:
I have chronic pain. And when I live with pain, all the time- how do I unthink the pain?

Abe:
Well, it is harder just like with our friend. It's harder to have an occupation where she's focused continually on something that we're encouraging not to think about for a while. And so, when something's hurting in your body, it's hard not to notice it. So look at it this way... you're gonna like this. So let's say that your goal is to have a whole lot more money than you have. And your logic tells you, that it's not just going to fall into your bank account today. But you could -in five or ten minutes of conversation- you could find the feeling or the essence of prosperity!.

So, you could accomplish the feeling of prosperity even though the reality, the manifested actualization of money, hasn't come, yet.

Does that make sense? So, you could have physical pain - which is the same thing as the absence of the money - and focus upon or find the feeling place of alignment, and freedom from that pain. It's like calling pain the manifestation of something that you are changing the vibration of. We like that analogy. If you can feel rich, when you don't have any money, you can feel pain free when you've got pain. It's the same process of thinking.

It's just a little harder when it's so up... money is tricky, too, because money or lack of it, affects you all day long. And pain affects you all day long! And maybe not having something that you want affects you all day long- but not as much. So, you have to use the power of your mind, you have to be a little more disciplined, you have to be a little more decided.

So, we're gonna tell you some things about pain that we think, will help you a lot.
If you have resistance - if you have a belief that is contradicting a desire - you're gonna feel negative emotion about it. And the more you want the desire and the more you don't believe it, the stronger that resistance is going to feel. So, if you've got resistance - if you've got that negative emotion within you, which is simply the indication that you're not up to speed with who you really are - you're holding yourself back.

Part of you is going, and the other part of you isn't going which causes this tug of war. Which is what the feeling of negative emotion is. If you've got negative emotion and you don't recognize it and do something to soften it, it will get bigger. It will become more and more and more and more and more- and eventually it becomes physical pain.

Physical pain is just an extension of - it's an indication of - resistance!

But it's not very helpful to someone to say, "Well, your pain is because you've got resistance. Get rid of it," because if you could get rid of it, you would. But it is helpful to know that you can do something about it, and the thing that is most important for you to understand...oh... most people think that when they have physical pain, that there must be something really, really big and important that they are denying. And that is rarely the situation. What it is, is a whole bunch of things that you care about that you're just denying. And a lot of people are doing the same thing.

You have so many beliefs that are contradicting so many desires. That's all that it is!
Beliefs that contradict desires.

And so, now you've focused on that, when it comes up and you're actually in the moment of doing it, you'll catch yourself doing it. And then maybe, if you care about it, you can soften the thought just a little bit. Here's the other thing, now that was not all that helpful. Because what we just said to you is, "You're doing stuff and you don't know you're doing it and that's why you hurt. So don't do that anymore." That was completely not helpful.

But it is the basis. It's important to understand that, so, in that way it has the potential of being helpful! It's just not helpful, yet. But this will be helpful right away: In the same way that we're talking to you about your open-circuit, relative to something that you want, your body has trillions of cells that are consciousness - that are open circuits. And when the circuits in your body are open to each other, and to the impulses that are coming from your central nervous system and from your thinking system, in other words, when your circuits are open, you thrive. Open circuits are what makes you intend to pick up that glass of water, and be able to do it. It's what makes your body respond to your thought. Those are open circuits, you see. And so, even though you have more open circuits than not- all of you-, you might be closing some of those circuits down through thoughts or beliefs that you have.

So, in the same way that we were demonstrating that if you have a desire, and a belief that matches it- then the circuit is wide open and the Universe can deliver to you - you can get back - what you want. It's just an open circuit. But if you want something that you don't believe, then it's like electrocuting yourself. And you don't get it back, and it doesn't feel good, and the result is negative emotion. Stronger result than negative emotion is physical pain. Which means... Pain always means this:

The cells of your body are requesting things that are being offered, that you're resistant thought is keeping them from receiving. So, pain means - first and foremost - help's on the way!

It means, the cells are asking, because they know how to stay in balance. The cells of your body are so brilliant! They are such genius consciousness. Think about it. Do you ever think about your body? How incredible it is? You don't lie in bed at night and keep your own blood pumping. You don't make that a conscious thing, that you do. There are so many things, that you call unconscious! Unconscious success in your body, that the cells of your body are tending to. And the cells of your body are regenerating, they're becoming new, over and over and over again.

And so, they don't hold old beliefs!
Because they're becoming new again. But you teach them the beliefs that are hindering through your thoughts. In other words, when you think about getting older and, therefore, you're teaching the cells of your body things that cause resistance- that don't let the circuits flow. So, when your cells ask for something and the circuit is closed, that equals pain. That's all that it is. And you get a few trillion cells asking, and not receiving- then the physical result to you is: you don't feel so good.

Did you hear us when we said, "It's not a big thing?" You don't have some big, terrible, hairy, secret doubt within you! It's just a whole bunch of stuff, like, "I'd like to do that, but I can't." -Something that simple. And just multiply that by a few dozen times a day, about a few hundred subjects, and then you've got resistance. That's all that it is.

HS:
Is... is that why when I get really angry about something... I can move!

Abe:
It gets worse?

HS:
No, I can move for a while.

Abe:
When you get angry... What happens when you really know what you don't want is: you know what you do want.
And so, your belief or your desire has just been emphasized! This is really good, because this is something that we said for the first time today, and this is the follow-through on it. So we are appreciating your observation! Because this is, what it means. You know earlier, when we said to you that if you've got a very clear desire, it doesn't matter what you believe?

So, when something happens that really made you angry, because you knew you really didn't want it, it made you know you really did want it and for a moment, the energy really flowed in a powerful way. Yeah, the desire was dominant for a moment! As you said: "FOR A MOMENT." Yeah.

HS:
So, I don't wanna stay angry all the time, though!

Abe:
Well, beats hurting! (big laughter) Clarifying is just gonna keep coming to you. But, don't overthink it, but pay attention to the way you feel. Haven't you noticed that, all of you!- we're asking, all of you, that- but you'll be able to answer this specifically, too. But, all of you think about this:

Isn't one of the most uncomfortable moments that moment of indecision?

About anything. Should I do this or should I do that? That uncomfortable decision that...it's kind of like you just sort of paralyzed, and then, isn't the opposite true when you've decided something?
-When you decide something, don't you then feel like getting into motion?
-Don't the ideas begin flowing?
-Doesn't the magic start happening, once you've decided about something? And so, the same thing is true about this.

The helpful things that we've given you here... first of all, there's not anything big that's gone wrong. You don't have some big belief that is hindering you! You just have - like almost everybody else - a lot of hindering thoughts about things that do matter to you.

And our friend who said earlier, "I just decided not to care. I just accepted that I was probably not going to get called on." -And there was such power in that! Because as soon as she accepted that she wasn't going to get called on, she'd let go of the struggle of that. And when she let go of the struggle, the resistance went away, and the light around her - it was like suddenly she turned to beacon of light on that!- took our attention right to her.

When you decide that you're just not gonna worry about the physical discomfort... you're just not gonna worry about it! You're not going to exaggerate it, you're not gonna try to explain it to anybody, you're just gonna accept it. You're just not gonna try to make a big thing about it. You're just gonna accept it. You're just gonna accept it. Just accept it without trying to change it, without wondering how it got there, without feeling like you did something wrong, without turning it into more.

It just is and it's okay.

"Well, it just is and it's okay." That feeling of, "It's okay," diffuses so much!
One day, not too long ago, Esther was in a hotel like this and she was going through the kitchen, back to her suite on the segment of refreshment. And she rides the service elevator, because it's a more direct route up - she doesn't bump into so many of you. So, she got on the elevator with a man who belongs on the elevator, because he works back there. And he saw Esther and knew she didn't belong. And so, he explained to her there's another elevator for you. And Esther's looking at him - he was so sweet - and then his next words were, "But you didn't know. But you didn't know."

And, Esther just wanted to lick his face! She just wanted to wrap him up. She felt such tenderness and such understanding from him! Not wanting to make her wrong. And she thought, 'Oh, this is the most delicious moment that I think I've ever stood in, where I'm doing something totally off-limits and totally inappropriate. I could not be doing anything more wrong in this moment, than being on the elevator, with all the dirty clothes... "But you didn't know. You didn't know."

And this is the way we want you to feel about anything that isn't going the way you want it!
You didn't know that the cells of your body are communicating with each other! And you didn't know that you were blocking them, with your negative thoughts. You didn't know! You just thought, your negative thoughts were just negative thoughts. And you also thought, that they were logical negative thoughts! And that they were understood negative thoughts. And that they were commonly thought negative thoughts! You didn't know...!

But now you know! Now you know. In other words, now you know! Esther explained to him, "They gave me permission for this," and then she wanted to give back to him. She said, "but you didn't know." -Just giving everybody the benefit of the benefit of the benefit! Give yourself the benefit of the doubt. Everything's all right. And the cells of your body know, that everything's all right! And the cells of your body are not letting you down: They're asking for what they need and in that softer vibration...

See that? See that? You got that? You know what that is? You feel that? ...That's your confirmation! That's your inner being saying to you, "You didn't know! But now, you know." Did you feel that on your cheek, just now? (HS mumbles)

Yeah. You're not having a stroke. Lots of things like that. That's you, releasing enough resistance that you're allowing energy to flow where a moment ago you weren't allowing it to flow. You're gonna begin feeling a lot of twitters. Yeah.

HS:
It's a good thing?

Abe:
It is a VERY good thing.

from the youtube clip "The Root Cause of Chronic Pain | Abraham Hicks"

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Are our lives pre-planned by us?
Also: Dying clears ALL resistances and returns us into pure positive energy again!
THERE IS NO KARMA!

HS:
That's the world I seem to live in lately- well, since I was little. But there's a lot of people seem to always talk about like Michael Newton, about coming down here on Earth, and we pick our families.

Abe:
You do vibrationally pick everything.

HS:
Vibrationally, right. Right. Can we talk a little bit about that?

Abe:
Yeah, it's because from non-physical, in absence of resistance, you make deliberate choices about what you think is the best platform. From which you will launch your creative experience, here. So, that the things that really matter to you, are available to you in that springboard, that you call birthplace, and the first family.

HS:
So, let's talk about what happens on the other side. I mean, it seems like Michael Newton talks a lot about that. And I'm in that world, too. I do hypnosis myself, too, and he speaks that, when we make our transition, we go back to our families of (...) and we plan our lives.

Abe:
Well, the thing about that is is, that you re-emerge immediately into the vibration that is YOU. But it's expanded! you're not going back! You're going forward.

It sounds like back, because you were there- and then you were here. But it's not back! Because that part of you never left "there"! That part of you never left there, and so as you come and expand, then the expanded version of you returns to all of that.

HS:
But then we seem to plan our lives, coming back down here. But then you've talked about, that there really is no plan?

Abe:
Well instead of using the word "plan", let's use the word "intent". In other words, who you are and the vibration that you're offering- we made an attempt at explaining this a few minutes ago, so we're going to circle back around and do it again. Because we want to help you to realize, that you don't create through action. You create through point of Attraction. And when you come into this physical body, you come with intention.

But the intention expands, and evolves, as a result of your participation here!

So, it's not quite the way you are describing it!

HS:
So, are we responsible for our actions? Because I know... I had a conversation with someone else and I'm a firm believer, that yes, we are responsible! Because that's the life, that we choose to come down here. Then there's that karmic reaction, that we all seem to have, like, let's say we had a past life and we were horrible, let's say. And we go back and it was meant to be, but now we have to come back, and...

Abe:
But here's the flaw in that premise. So when we talk about source and the vibrational place for lack, an easier way to just say it quickly- that

you've come from that vibrational non-physical being, that is non-resistant, pure positive energy, Liquid Love, pure positive energy, pure intent and pure desire, and worthy beyond description, and eager to continue the creative process!

So, then a part of that comes into this physical time-space-reality. And is the personality, that you know as "you". And so, to the degree that you are in Alignment with who you are, you are living joyful moments. To the degree that you're resisting who you are, you are living less than joyful moments! But that's as big as the Badness gets!

In other words- there is this stream of goodness, which you allow or don't, in any moment in time. But when you make your transition back into non-physical, you stop the resistance and you are purely received by non-physical! And so it's like the non-physical was the clearing. Because, you left behind all of the resistant parts.

That's why the notion of Karma and Redemption is so skewed. It is inaccurate! It cannot possibly be!

Because that would say, that you take all of that with you, and you don't!
That would say, that that high flying vibration would also include those lower vibrations- and it can't.

It's vibrationally inaccurate! It's vibrationally impossible. That's not the way that it is! But humans try to explain bad things that they see, in all kinds of ways. And so, there are a lot of interpretations about things like that, that cannot be. And so the karma- we will go along with that, in the sense that you come and you expand, and you become, and you come again,

but you're coming not to climb the rungs of the karmic ladder. You come again for the joyous creating!

Because that's who we all are.
Because creation is what we do!
Because expansion is inevitable.
Because in the eternalness that is us, nothing else makes sense! Does it?

HS:
No, yeah, so... it's more like a learning process, that we're coming down here...?

Abe:
Of course you learn, you can't help it.
But you're not coming for the learning! You're coming for the joy!
There's this Triad of intentions, that you come in on: freedom and growth and joy. And that's the basis of Who You Are.

You're so free, you can choose bondage. And growth is inevitable. So, you come for the joyous experience! But all of it is part of what you ARE.

HS:
So there really is no planning involved? That's we...

Abe:
Yes, there is! Yes there is!
There's the plan to live happily ever after!
There's the plan to feel who you really are!
There's the plan to discover what's new!
There's the plan, to feel more momentum!
There's the plan to be of value!
There's the plan to help others experience Heaven on Earth!
There's the plan to be in the moment!
There's a plan to feel your empowerment!
There's the plan to be physical, and to be tangible!
There's a plan to translate vibration into something that's even more tangible!

Source seeing- imagine that!!! -Source being in an environment, with all this beauty to see! Yeah there's a plan!! There's an intention!!

HS:
So there's an intention of picking our family, for a purpose, you know? This particular group... I picked my parents, you know...?

Abe:
Well, you're not a puppet on a string from even those intentions! Because those intentions are general and you fill the specifics in- because that's what's fun!

HS:
Okay, so if I wanted to experience, like I said, more metaphysical... being in contact with... that's all my own planning, as I came down here to experience for the joy of it?

Abe:
You know how you can tell that you're on your life purpose- plan?

HS:
That's a good question, yeah!

Abe:
...By the way you feel on your path.

The happier you are, the more you are satisfying that so-called plan, that you keep insisting on calling it. And the worse you feel, the more off the path you are in the moment. So, yes of course there's intention. But the thing that you're pointing us toward, and we are refusing to go to, is that you're wanting to assign a plan that must be followed.

And we're wanting you to understand, it was this Broad and Powerful, but General plan, that you are creating the specifics off from HERE, from THIS format!

And the closer you are to those non-physical intentions, the better you feel. And oh, this is the part that we want to tell you the most!! Oh, if you want to call it a plan, do! WE want you to know, that every day you live, that plan evolves. And that's the way we've been describing it. That as you sift through this environment, and know what you don't want, you launch rockets. And who-you-are becomes that "more". And so, as that "more" happens vibrationally -not future tense, but present tense!! -it is a reality, that now exists.

Now you get to experience the deliciousness of catching up with that newly plotted plan!

HS:
That's good! (Abe: it is good!) That's good very good! Yeah. So basically when, like the lady was talking about astrological charts and things like that, just it's fun to play with, but it's not really...?

Abe:
We're not asking you ever to discount anything!
Because there's value in everything! And sometimes, some of those things that we're really not talking about a lot from this platform, they were exactly on your path, along the way. In other words, they were the next logical step for you! Because it caused you to realize, that there was something more. And it made you think about you, before you were here in this physical body. And it introduced to you the idea of intentionality. And it made you realize, that you are much more than you see, here in this physical body! There was value in that!! But eventually, we want you to get around to the acknowledgment of your own guidance system, and once you click into that knowledge, everything else that you're using as guidance, is less significant to you. And- you can't go back! There's no regression! In other words- religion's just fine. As long as it leads you to your own alignment!
But if it replaces your alignment, it's not so fine for you.
