181 " 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. That is the only reason-ever! And an important thing for you to now understand is that if you will stop and think about it, or, more important, stop and feel about it, you can identify your very discord. "

182 " Abraham: It is not possible to push things that you do not want away from you, because in your pushing against them you are actually activating the vibration of them and therefore attracting them. Everything in this Universe is attraction based. In other words, there is no such thing as exclusion. When you shout “No!” at those things you do not want, you are actually inviting those unwanted things into your experience. When you shout “Yes!” at those things you do want, you are actually inviting those wanted things into your experience "

183 " likely. They do such a good job of making you aware of the prevalence of robberies, bringing that awareness to your attention again and again, that you not only think of it with emotion—but you expect it. It is no wonder that you get so many of the things you do not want—you give so much of your attention to the things you do not want.. . . We "
184 " We would recommend that if you hear of an assault, you say, “That is their experience. I do not choose that.” And then release the thought of what you do not want, and think of what you do want, because you get what you think about, whether you want it or not. "
185 " That which you really, really want, you get—and that which you really, really do not want, you get. "
186 " You Are a Vibrational Being in a Vibrational Environment "
187 " Abraham: It is often felt that there are those who do not like certain characteristics about other Beings, so in their dislike of those characteristics, they are responsible for the prejudice. We want to point out that it is not only the doing of the one who is accused of being prejudiced. More often, the one who feels discriminated against is the most powerful creator in that experience. The Being who feels that others do not like him—for whatever reason—whether it is religion, race, gender, or social status . . . no matter what the reason is that he feels that he is being discriminated against—it is his attention to the subject of the prejudice that attracts his trouble. "
188 " Look forward to where you want to be and spend no time complaining about where you are. "

189 " When you're able to acknowledge that many people are choosing different things; they believe differently; they want differently; they act differently, and when you understand that all of that adds to a more perfect whole, and that none of that threatens you-because the only thing that affects you is what you're doing with your own valve-then you move about freely and joyously.

190 " But when they take action before they have improved the content of their vibration, what they get is something that matches their current vibration instead of something that matches their desire. "
191 " For example, let us say that a woman has recently come from a bad relationship where her partner has verbally and physically abused her. She did not want that or like that. In fact she hated the life that she lived with that person. So, from her place of really knowing what she does not want, she makes a clear statement of what she does want. She wants a partner who loves her and treats her with kindness and respect. But she feels very insecure without a partner, and she wants a new partner immediately. And so, she goes someplace where she is accustomed to going and meets a new person who seems nice enough. But what she may not realize is that the Law of Attraction is still matching her up with whatever is dominant within her. And right now, what is still dominant within her is the vibration of what she does not want because the unwanted parts of her last relationship are much more active within her thoughts than the new intentions that have been established. In her eagerness to soothe her feelings of insecurity, she takes action and jumps into this new relationship—and gets more of what is dominant within her vibration. It would be our encouragement that she take things more slowly and spend more time thinking about what she wants until those thoughts are the basis for the dominant vibration within her. And then, let the Law of Attraction bring her wonderful new partner to her. "
192 " You are not here to prove your worthiness. You are worthy! You are here for the experience of joyful expansion. "
193 " You see, it is really so simple. When you feel bad, you are in the process of attracting something that will not please you. And it is always because you are focused upon the lack of something you want. And so, the process of Pivoting is the conscious decision to identify what it is that you do want. We do not want to imply that the feeling of negative emotion is a bad thing, because, very often, in the feeling of negative emotion, you are alerted to the fact that you are in the process of negatively attracting. And so, it is like a warning bell. It is part of your guidance system. "
194 " In your lack of self-appreciation, you deny yourself your natural inheritance of continuous joy. "
195 " The first Law, the Law of Attraction, says: That which is like unto itself, is drawn. "
196 " The second Law, the Science of Deliberate Creation, says: That which I give thought to and that which I believe or expect—is. "
197 " The third Law, the Art of Allowing, says: I am that which I am, and I am willing to allow all others to be that which they are. "
198 " Only when you understand that another cannot be a part of your experience unless you invite them in through your thoughts (or through your attention to them), and that circumstances cannot be a part of your experience unless you invite them to you through your thought (or through your observation of them), will you be the Allower that you wanted to be when you came forth into this expression of life. "
199 " There is no desire that anyone holds for any other reason than that they believe they will feel better in the achievement of it. Whether it is a material object, a physical state of being, a relationship, a condition, or a circumstance—at the heart of every desire is the desire to feel good. And so, the standard of success in life is not the things or the money— the standard of success is absolutely the amount of joy you feel. "
