from the youtube-video https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=deskt ... JanTalens- "Phantom 3 meets the tjalk Windbruid"

30 days of dictating to the Universe, and lining up with who I really AM.

Day 30

I did it! I accomplished 30 days of pondering how and if "I dictate to the Universe"!

This morning, Tara "danced with me" :hearts: :wave::ta: :ta:

...and I take this as excuse as my last post in this 30-day-challenge.

I am the person who seeks chances and adventures, and allows them into REALITY!



I just ADORE to match up what feels so good! I adore to do my part in mending a broken family. I adore to find mutual fascinations, that uplift people into mutual joy! I adore to see what fits together! In this case, it was the patchwork-family of my daughter and SIL, who needed to mend. And it was the Abraham-workshop in Amsterdam, 2019, and our desires to explore the Dutch shore. We -most of the time- lived in a summer cottage, but for the time of my workshop, we moved to Amsterdam and slept on the Tjalk "Windbruid", that serves as a "hotel" AND as an adventure-vessel. It felts so thrilling! It felt so awesome! It felt like, being high on life!







I AM THE PERSON who LOVES to make miracles!
I am the person who loves the exceptional. I am a lover, and I am loving to live fully and rich and extraordinary. I love to be in ALIGNMENT and to offer excuses for Alignment, to others as well! I SO LOVE ALIGNMENT!



Our family, sailing on the Windbruid :hearts: :grouphugs:

I feel that I need a little time-out, before I would start another 30 days. :vortex: :wave:

Haha...
so much to plans that we make. I got a HUGE inspiration from my beloved DH yesternight, and it's simply too good to not follow up on it! :hearts:

It included to look for my BELOVED quote, about being "a pointer", as Esther phrased it.
YES!!!! :hearts: :vortex: :hearts:

Here it is!
I love it's boldness.
I love it's "outrageous" clarity!
I love it's Humor!!

"(Getting) your Ferrari will not stop World Peace"! :lol: :lol: :vortex-small: :auto:
Ohh, I so love Abe, knowing us blessed green-hearted, spiritual do-gooder! :hearts:
I will use this as Basis for my next 30 days, where I will -just as the quote asks us for,

-carve out and get clear about what it REALLY is that I "care about",
-getting clear about where I point at- and activate the Absence of what I want,



We all came as a Divine Creators!
The Ferrari is AS important as World-Peace!

-Become a POINTER: Point at- and update what you want.



Abe:
You know that you are more than you see here, in these bodies!? Do you?
Are you beginning to realize, that you in your human form- and a lovely form it is!- in your human personality, that you are an extension of source energy, and that you've come as source energy to create in a time and place in a time and space, under the vibrational laws of the universe,

with the explicit intention of consciously becoming more, and getting to witness the more that you are becoming?
You've come here into this time-space reality, to turn thoughts to things!


And sometimes you've... especially those of you, out here on this leading edge! On this leading edge of spirituality and deliberate intent, deliberate creation- sometimes you argue with yourself about the importance or the value, or even the correctness, of wanting to create things. Like, maybe you should be more interested in spiritual things? ...More heavenly things. Maybe, you should care more about World Peace, and not so much about the Ferrari?

And we want you to understand, that your Ferrari won't stop world peace!

You're carving out for yourself holding your thoughts upon something that you care about, to the point that you learn not to deviate from the things that you care about. In other words, thinking about what you want and not thinking so much about its absence, and not using the absence of things you want as justification for flowing your thoughts toward more virtuous things! There's no supply line that has been cut off.

In fact, you get to create whatever it is, that you focus upon!
In fact, you DO create whatever it is, that you focus upon!

And by creating one thing, you don't disallow another. You can have it all!!
Did you hear that? So, what keeps you leading edge creators, what keeps any of you from experiencing, from having, from possessing, from living, from owning, from knowing, something that you desire?

What does pinch it off?
If it isn't that: "There just isn't enough to go around. And the greedy ones are getting it all!" -if it's not that, and it isn't! -if it isn't that, someone else has decided what you're worthy of, or not worthy of. And holding back on your behalf, then what is it?

It is, that only you can hold yourself apart, from something that you want.
And the only way that you do it is by focusing upon the absence of what you want.


Because what you're pointing at, with your thoughts and with your words, is what you're practicing a vibrational frequency of. And that's what you're getting! That's what you're letting in. But you get confused about it, because sometimes when you are in a state of desiring something, you're pointing right at what you desire, and you feel good when you're thinking about it. There's no resistance! There's no pinching it off, when you feel like that!

But when you feel jealous of what someone else has, or angry at yourself that you haven't created more effectively or efficiently, when you feel negative emotion- that's when you are pointing in opposition to what you want. And the reason that we are so sure about that is, because every time you pointed at what you wanted, your Inner Being pointed at it! And Law of Attraction began amassing around this powerful pointing of you and YOU. And even when you, in your human form, got discouraged and stopped pointing at what you want, but instead began pointing at all the reasons that you are using to justify why you don't have it-

your Inner Being continued to point in the direction of what you want!

And that is, in fact... that pointing difference is what your emotions are all about. Esther has been saying to anyone who asks, and since hardly anyone does, she tells a lot of people who aren't asking, if they say "what do you do?" -she says "I'm a Pointer." And that's usually about as far, as that conversation goes, because she looks crazy, you know. But what she means is:

"I point at what I want! And law of attraction and the Universe take care of it!
Cooperative components are gathered, and what I want begins to take shape.
And the more I point at what I want, then the more of what I want comes into form.

And the more I point at it, the more awarenesses I have, of other things that I think, might be helpful to assist me in the receiving of it!"


Sometimes you point at something like a new house. And then you need to point at someone who's going to build it, unless you're going to do it yourself! And Esther's not going to do it herself, so she points at the idea of the new house, and as it comes into being, then she points at all kinds of things about the house.

"I'd like that, for the floor. And I would like that for the paint color. And I would like that for the tile, and I would like that, and I would like that one, I would like that, and I would like all of those people who know how to do it, just the way I like it, to come and assist!"

I'm a pointer! I'm a pointer. I'm a pointer: that's what a creator is!
A pointer and a deliberate creator is someone, who continues to point at what you want.


But as humans- and it's all right!!- you've come to sift and sort. And to come to conclusions about what you prefer, in the sifting and sorting process! Often you're pointing at what you don't want. In fact, you usually point at what you don't want, before you get clear about what you do want! But what we've noticed about so many of you is, even though you come into greater clarity about what you do want, as you've been aware of the things that you don't want- so often, and we love you so much!- you continue to point at what you don't want while you talk about what you do want.

You keep noticing how things are.
And what we really want you to hear is, that your life is so full and fantastic! And you have so many facilities in order to observe it! Your physical senses, your hearing and seeing and smelling and tasting and touching- everything that's around you, and that makes you more likely to keep pointing at what you see! But if you are pointing at it, just because it is: "look over there!" (happy voice) -you say, "well, look at that" (cynical, bummed out voice). How often rather than(happy eager voice) "look at that!", you're saying (disgusted voice) "well, look at that!" and you can tell by your own attitude when you're saying "look at that", it might not be something that you really want to point at!

Because you're going to move in the direction of what you point at!

Jerry learned that with Esther. They're driving down the highways, and the big old 45-foot bus with the car behind it, yesterday. Esther did most of the driving, and Jerry would say: "Look at that rainbow!" and then he would notice, that Esther would start moving in the direction! It wasn't long before he learned to only point out things to her that were right ahead!

Because you do move in the direction of what you're pointing at, at what you're looking at!

And so we want you to just pay attention over the next few days especially, at how many things you're pointing at, coming to your experience, in a very very strong way! Because law of attraction is relentless. The law of attraction brings back to you- and fast- what is active in your vibration. Sometimes, something happened in your experience, maybe 20 years ago. And of course you observed it! You were pointing at it, maybe a lot of people were pointing at it. It was something really worth pointing about! It was a big deal in your experience!

But then, that time passed. But you kept pointing at it. Remembered, talked about it... 19 years ago, and 18 years ago, and 17 years ago... talked about it yesterday! Talked about it this morning, in fact! You talk about it:
-Sometimes, because it's entertaining.
-Sometimes, because you overcame something!
-Sometimes because it's interesting! Mostly, because it's entertaining or because it's stuck in your vibrational craw. But MOSTLY,
-because you have forgotten, that what you point at keeps coming with you.

So if there are things that happened 20 years ago, that you want to re-create in today's experience, then by all means, we encourage you to keep pointing at them! And keep pointing them out, and keep talking about them!

But if it's something that you really don't want to be coming up in your experience over and over again- then don't keep updating it!!
Don't keep renewing it!


Esther notices that if she doesn't update her software, pretty soon her machine doesn't work anymore. You've noticed that? -Gotta kind of keep updating, to keep things current! Well, when it regards things that you care about, and things you want to keep being active in your experience, by all means keep updating them! Keep talking about them. Keep them active in your vibration. But if there's something that you've lived, or something that you've observed, that you don't want to be present in your day's experience-

then do your best to take your attention from it which means give your attention to other things:
Decide, that you're going to point toward the things that you really want.

-carving out and geting clear about what I REALLY "care about",
-getting clear about where I point at- and probably activate the Absence of what I want.
-setting a Grid about the Essence of what I do want!


Day 1

What do I REALLY "care about", today?

I care about going into Alignment with me, being a multi-millionaire.
I also care about the "vibrational currency", as I very well know that not everything I desire can be bought with money.


WHY do I care about that?

I want to feel this EMPOWERMENT. This Freedom to do, or be, and have what I want.
I want to KNOW that I am empowered! I want to KNOW who I really am!


Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?

-I LOVE my "big dreams"!! I am incredibly proud of how far I came in this! I left my poverty-consciousness behind me. SUCH A GOOD JOB!!!
-I left behind me that people might be envious, ornery, mean. I came incredibly far in that, as well. GOOD JOB!!

-I am several times of the day realizing, that -while I would indeed consider myself rich, the BIG money is not there. It feels as if I would bang with 100mph into a wall. Well, that seems dramatic, but I DO bang into energetic walls, of "it's not there". "That will do it", I know! :roll: But: Normally, I catch myself fast. And still, I want to clean this up! I want to soothe this!

Telling a new Story, and Setting a Wanted Grid about the Essences of what I do want, in it
I smoothe out the "what-is-itis".
What-is doesn't mean diddly squat! (I love this Abe-phrase) :lol: I can change my focus! I already am doing this, so much of my time, I really got good at this. I appreciate my awareness! I appreciate my clarity! I appreciate that I have my feet on the ground, I REALLY love this and want it this way. But when I am visualizing, and the energy takes me, and I want to rush off in physicality, and buy the thing, or phone that people- I will IMAGINE that I do so and set Grids of how that Feeeels.

So, how does it feel to have Millions for free access in my account?
It feels so light! It feels empowered! It feels like laughter and ease. It feels EASY! It feels awesomely LIGHT. It feels so FREE! It feels fresh and eager and flexible! It feels open. It feels inviting. It feels like laughing of joy! It feels like a huge YES!

It feels free and empowered, and wonderful! It feels delighted! It feels passionate! It feels like flying. It feels FREE!

Day 2

-What do I REALLY "care about", today?
Allowing multi-millions of Euros.

WHY do I care about that?
I want to experience this specific FREEDOM. This specific EMPOWERMENT, that owning big money means. I want to splurge on many many projects! I REALLY WANT TO MAKE A "BIG SPLASH"!

-Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?
I point at truly, deeply loving my dreams and desires!
I point at my passion to invite others into Abundance.
I point at many many wonderful, adventurous, helpful, delightful ways of living and having experiences.
I point at not yet having enough money. Duh :lol:

Telling the New Story, and Setting wanted Grids about the Essences of what I do want, in it
I am so proud of how good I am doing in 99% of the time! :lol: I REALLY am! I love how far I came! I love how I found ways to release all this resistance, that I have released! I will find a way for that lost %, too. I trust source that they bring me there! I trust source that they know exactly how I will accomplish that. And in the meanwhile, I keep saying "Oh, wouldn't that be nice! OH, this is so nice! I can see me there!" AND I DO!!
I see myself KNOWING that I have the money! I FEEL myself there, having, owning, touching, spending the money!
I KNOW the money already!

It feels awesome. It feels completely natural and normal- AND awesome! It feels so powerful. Because, I DID THAT! It feels delightful. And it feels so easy. It feels soft and normal and gentle and relaxed. AND it feels awesome again and again and again!
It feels just as life is supposed to be! It feels SATISFIED. It feels wonderfully satisfied! It feels FREE. Ohhhh, it feels sooo good!

Day 3

-What do I REALLY "care about", today?
Allowing multi-millions of Euros. NOW. Rapidamente!!!
Feeling better about my body. INSTANTLY. NOOOOOOW!!!!!!! :x
AND I DO NOT WORK HARD AT ANY OF IT! I WANT MAGIC, for heavens sake! I want this magic awesome crap!!!!

WHY do I care about that?
Because I feel rotten without it. I want my stuff so that it can save me. So that I can look at it and then feel better. :roll:

-Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?
I know veeeery well that I don't have what I want. So in the moment, when I want to visualize, I don't enjoy it anymore.
I miss my visualizations. That was always such fun. I miss my playfulness, my passion.
I point at being sad and aware of the Absence. I point at disempowerment.

Telling the New Story, and Setting wanted Grids about the Essences of what I do want, in it
I love that I just now made fun of me being p* (on the F* it -thread). It helped as a charm, and here I am, LOVING to "work" again.
I love that I CAN just relax. I still trust that source will lead me and help me alllll the time.
I love that I have a big ol black magic hood in which noone sees me. SO comfortable.
I love that I don't need to be specific.
I don't need to look at all the misery.
I don't need to do anything. I can just rot here to pieces and have a jolly good time within it.
I don't need to be healthy or pretty. I can become a 500kg-girl and stay in my bed all day long and enjoy sleeping. I CAN. I COULD.
I AM FREE!

I AM free to choose bondage. I am free to be miserable. I like that freedom, really. No joke.
I like that we all CAN feel miserable. Freedom feels so much better than having no choice.

Day 4

-What do I REALLY "care about", today?
I care for me, deeply trusting, KNOWING that "I can do or have or be everything life has caused me to desire".

WHY do I care about that?
Because it feels that this is at my chore.
Nothing else does it. This is who-I-really-am, this divine Creator, that is wholly, fully, totally empowered. I WANT TO KNOW THIS in every cell of my body.

-Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?
I point at intellectually knowing it, and now wanting to KNOW it completely unconditionally.
I point at Hope, and sometimes Frustration.
But so much, I deeply intensely KNOW! And the difference realllly hurts :wtf:

Telling the New Story, and Setting wanted Grids about the Essences of what I do want, in it
Nothing matters more to me than ALIGNMENT between me and ME!
I can't stand the Split.
I know that what calls me is big, and incredibly precious for me, otherwise it wouldn't hurt. And I LIKE knowing that!
I LIKE knowing how big my Vortex is!
I LIKE knowing that who-I-really-am is over there, with all my fulfillment and all my stuff, and all the Paradise that I HAVE CREATED, by default but over years sooo lovingly deliberately!
It is all THERE. It is DONE. It waits for me. IT WANTS ME! I KNOW THAT!!

And now, I just TRUST that source carries me towards it.
That source guides me in every second, and I HEAR it! And I FOLLOW it!
I relax, relax, relax, relax! I relax into the unfolding.
And I appreciate whatever comes.
I appreciate everything that comes into my consciousness- even if I do not understand. My understanding is not asked for. My love is! My joy is. My trust is. My loving joyful openness is. I can do that! I pay some more of this "terrible", WONDERFUL, eager, joyful, loving price of Happiness! :hearts:

Day 5

-What do I REALLY "care about", today?
I want to be in ALIGNMENT. I want to be together WITH ME.
I want to be whole again. I can't stand to not really be ME, whole and eager and in KNOWING.

WHY do I care about that?
Nothing, really, matters more to me than being ME.

-Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?
I point pretty good, in the moment!
I point at thankfulness.
I point at allowing relief.
I point at KNOWING this stance, and KNOWING that everything else comes from this. I KNOW that.

Telling the New Story, and Setting wanted Grids about the Essences of what I do want, in it
I keep up this KNOWINg of Alignment! I keep up this Leadership, that really is true Authority, true Joy, true Security- the ONLY Security really there is. True Intensity, true Freedom, true Abundance, true real LOVE!

Being me, in my Joy, in my Clarity, in my Wisdom, in my perfect Timing... it never needs "perfection"! It just needs Alignment. Hell yes. I KNOW!




True Leadership ONLY works in Alignment.
And when you'r in Alignment -you can't other than lead!



HS:
So my question today is, I'd like to talk about leading from an Abraham inspired perspective. I'm an entrepreneur, start and build businesses. And I really would love to find... you know, we talk a lot about individually. But how can I take that into the corporate environment?

Abe:
Well you know it's much easier than you might think!

Because everything that we've been talking about, is about influence. And your greatest influence is in your alignment- so you can't help but lead, when you tune in to who you really are, and hold it consistently!


So that there's not much, if any, dip in your vibration. Then you'll get a lot of momentum going! And that is, in fact what leadership is, isn't it! The thing that must be understood in all of that, is you've got to decide who it is that you're leading. And it would be easier for all of you if you would just accept that

You can only lead those who are on your spinning disk.
("disc"=emotional stance that you are in, in the very moment)

The thing that goes wrong with so many is, that you get there.
-They're not there!
-You notice they're not there,
-you join them where they are-
and you don't lead.

But if you get there, you practice it, you maintain it- it's yours.
You interface with them, and you'll dip every now and again, but if you're aware of this, so that you are deliberately reaching for those higher vibrations- THEN you keep finding them!

You find them, and find them, and find them, and find them, and find them. And then, more people jump on your disk! And really, don't you want to lead those, who are in tune with who you really are? (HS: absolutely!) It's really a good time to talk about healing, or teaching, or mentoring in this context. Because what it always is, is LEADING. Leading by the clarity of your example! Or leading with the clarity of your vibrational momentum.

Have you ever had an experience, where you decided that you were going to lead- and you had it all lined up, and then you witnessed something that sort of got your goat a little bit, so you lost your alignment. And now you're struggling to lead. You're efforting to lead. And it seems like, the inmates are running the asylum!

HS
Yes, yeah. I have experienced that.

Abe:
It's all about what's going on with your vibration! Always!

HS:
So then, to that end, the momentum... so if I jump into a business that's already going- it'll have a certain momentum to it, as well. And so the best thing i can do, is just then stay aligned, and stay focused!?

Abe:
Well, momentum is everywhere! What you're wanting to do is, more consciously exercise your choice, about which disc you jump onto. And the more you practice in the privacy of your own mind, it may sound odd,

but true leadership is a rather solitary experience!
Because you spend most of your time tuning. And then, you go out, and lead for a while. And then you tune, and then you go out and lead for a while. So many leaders think, they have to be ever present! And then, they don't stay tuned.

Day 6

-What do I REALLY "care about", today?
I care about getting my stuff "ALL BY ITSELF". I desire this EASE. I desire this "Magic".


WHY do I care about that?
Everything less just doesn't cut it! It would always be just shovelling sand from the left side to the right. I desire this POWER, to point- and it happens. I don't want to care for the how and the who and the where!
I just want to point, and on it comes.


-Where do I point at (and probably activate the Absence of what I want)?
I still point a lot at needing to work hard at everything, at figuring stuff out, making decisions...
While I actually LOVE to surrender much more.
I love choices! AND, I don't want to be overwhelmed. AND I still want my stuff :lol:

So, I want to point at what I want and get suggestions and inspirations and ideas.
And I want to point at those that I love. And then, I get options again: Doing it myself, "allowing it" to come in surprising and delightful ways, or something else! Sometimes I really really WANT to do it myself. And sometimes, I don't. Perfect!

Telling the New Story, and Setting wanted Grids about the Essences of what I do want, in it

I passionately, joyfully, eagerly "work" on things as long as they really feel good!
And as soon the energy fades, I let go and expect to feel the perfect, joyful next step!
This is soo easy! And I love it!!!
And I am already really really good at it! :hearts:
