Prosperity Experiment Weekend Posts

The central message is that having abundance is as easy as breathing; and imagine if we did approach breathing in the way Abraham described! We certainly wouldn’t be healthy, and it would certainly place us off focus.

I need to hear these messages right now as I move to a place of greater trust and faith than ever before. I notice that some people easily have opportunity flow to them, struggle-free. What I must shift within myself is that money and opportunity comes easily to me. It’s a shift I must make on a cellular level as I come from generations of strugglers.

But, you see, a line of people who could not breathe easily would soon peter out…perhaps as we move closer toward the new earth/ascension, we must put total trust in God and release ego. Ego says we have to work to succeed, then we can say, “Look what I did! Look at my great talent and ability and what I’ve accomplished!”

I know I am living out that second quote, and I am know I am going to not only learn my lesson, I am going to pass with an A++. (How’s that for positive thinking!)

I love how this is really, really what I needed to read right now. Thank you, Elyse!

The central messages in these quotes are that there is more money than enough around us and the place to find it is within ourselves.

I must confess that there’s still a part of me that find these truth hard to believe. Maybe I am awaiting physical manifestation to truly believe? Am I a bit of a Thomas?

Yes I resonate with the central message because, and reading these words feels incredibly good, at least for a short time )

The major shift I need to make is to stop believing that money is something to work hard for.

My biggest challenge is to do something that I love and that is easy, challenging and exciting at the same time; something that makes me feel that I am moving out of my comfort zone.

Ease and trust, and really stepping into that trust and ease with one’s WHOLE self.

I know I like to keep a part of me outside the trust, so it can analyze. This is not fruitful. To shift, I need to put the analyzer on the side burner and step into full trust and ease, like soaking in the sun’s rays on the first real day of spring after a cold winter. We remove our protective sweater, and take in the warmth and feeling without analysis.

Thank you Elyse. I am focused on this today.

I know this stuff …. I really do feel/know in my body and soul and intellectually that my prosperity is as easy and natural and abundant as breathing and that I can depend on my Master Self to provide, rather than looking at the outside world …..

Knowing it and living it are two different things, when fear gets in on the act!

I dont feel I am held back by the fear of disappointment that it wont manifest, – I know that place and understand it and have proven that I can survive it – am actually an excellent survivor!

There’s a difference between surviving and thriving…. a huge qualitative difference, where its all in the mind….

The step from surviving to thriving is a big one – interestingly, that was part of the focus of post-treatment breast cancer support group I attended.

I’m held back by the fear that it will, and then I really will have to live large – and take whatever comes with that (I notice disapproval is what I’m expecting!, and people – including my inner critic – pointing the finger at me and saying “look at her, just who does she think she is?!”….

And I know that place too, because (I’m ashamed to say) a part of me has just the same attitude to ’successful’ people – I feel, and sometimes voice, criticism of them and how they live and what they do, while at the same time being envious of the freedom their abundance gives them…. its like I have to take them down a peg or two!

Funny how my own words come back to haunt me – not a week ago I pointed out to a fellow traveller (who admires my ability to manifest when the chips are down!), that his derison and negative attitude about wealthy people were driving prosperity away from himself – I asked him
“Why would the Universe bring you money when you use the words ‘filthy rich’ and criticise the choices people with money make?”

We teach what we need to learn, and when I point a finger at someone else, there are always three pointing back at me…. LOL!!!!

Peace and abundance, all
Namaste
Sahila

Interesting to see and own that attitude in myself!

This is exactly what I needed today, thanks Elyse! The message is that there my needs are always met because of the flow of abundance available to me at all times. It’s there for me as long as I allow it in. To let it in, I am going to focus on believable affirmations — It’s great to imagine that I can choose prosperity!

For generations my family has ‘believed’ that we are meant to work hard for everything and that wealth is for other people and we don’t want to be wealthy because it is selfish..blah…blah..blah. I am learning to use my inner voice when conversations with family bemoan this viewpoint. I am one with the universe and I was created to be prosperous. My imaginations and ideas are truly a roadmap to what I can accomplish -they are not fantasies but realities that exist if I choose to believe it. I am working daily at my own self-talk, instead of “i want” it is “i am so grateful that I have …” I am reprogramming myself to receive all that is already mine and I am encouraged to bless others with my fruitfulness.

The central message in the statements is that there is more then enough for everyone and once we realize that and are aware of our own power that we can get all the abundance in the Universe that is available to us, we will receive all we desire.

Oof … that is quite an insight – the friend who derides “the filthy rich” ….

today I look around (in gratitude) at what I already have – and how well or not I take care of my friends and my home and my stuff and my money …

already I have so much – but how much space do I have for MORE – maybe what I need is less but BETTER …
By doing the work to select and discriminate I can raise the standard of what I accept – of what I currently have AND of what comes to me. So much is around me to pluck from the bough like fruit … what I don;t see when my head is down looking at the gutter not up and out.

Time to give …kindness, listening, calm, smiles …. not rage and gossip and fury and frustration. It is a postive well of power inside – the well of kindess.
and now I ASK for ideas and inspiration of how to build wealth in addition to my job ….
….(the butterfly exercise was so powerful – now I am starting to look for ideas and examples of how people build wealth through supplying something for others …

Every time I participate and commit to a prosperity “tune-Up”, stuff I would rather not deal with comes up… you know resistance, old feelings and fears – the kind of stuff that gets easier for me to deal with when I maintain ongoing practice, until I forget and stop breathing. I hold on become constricted and create obstacles that limit and keep me in place… This time it’s about me buying a home. for about 15 years I watched a steady increase in prices, even a soaring rise to the burst bubble. Now the prices dropped enough that I am able to participate in the American Dream – though I am compassionate towards those who lost their homes. At the beginning of The Experiment I held my breath… lost business, no reserves, living expenses so high I can’t save, no downpayment…. then I let go. I started packing, visited homes and one week later a good friend called me. She wanted to know if I would like to rent a 3 bedroom house for half what I’m paying now, so I can save. My monthly payment would contribute to one of her family members who is currently unemployed and in need of help. We are meeting this weekend to iron out the details! When we breathe and let go we give generously to ourselves and others around us, while unlimited prosperity flows freely. John Randolph and Abraham Hicks resonate with me powerfully today. Thank you Elyse for this wonderful opportunity.

the best things in life are free love,air,gravity,friends,kid,s, sun shine,water,a pet,s love,a wife,s smile etc,etc what is free! what do i need money for?oh yes the plasma tv the big car,the new c,d the new phone the computer to express my word,s of APRECIATION WITH YOU,AMAZING STUFF THIS TECHNOLOGEY instead of 30 years of meditation i can type a few words and influence your thoughts,IMAGINE IT,S FREE NO CHARGE WHY? COS IT,S FREE WITHIN ME AND YOU TO SHARE IN IT PROSPERITY IS THE AIR WE SHARE and the IDEAS we make real for a tocken fee of money. ABRAHAM says a1000 years ago we traided beads,now we trade$$$$$ but what do we trade in a 1000 years from now?IMAGINE! thank,s

Garry – you are hilarious!!!

I honestly tell you that we all are flowing in the same conscious pool of thought. Have you all noticed how each message seems to be exactly what we needed to hear at that very moment? It’s a-mazing!

The latter quote from John Randolph Price resonated with me so much that I felt it as being one with my spirit. I felt it so deep within that expressed my inner dialog spot on!

At this very moment, my feelings are screaming out to tap into the flow of money that is desperately trying to manifest but it seems like I can’t get it right.

The latter quote mentioned that it’s a lesson and opportunity after opportunity will present itself in the form of lack until we get it right – is soooo what I knew down in my spirit. I was thinking the EXACT same thoughts before I read it today. I even wrote those words out in my “story” on Elyse’s Alignment Toolbox (I think that’s what it’s called).

Again, Bra-vo, Bra-vo!

I have to laugh at myself – my previous post about (amongst other things) having some sort of internal sense that I have to take prosperous people down a peg or two! After all, who do they think they are!!! (being facetious here, so dont take me seriously, OK?)….

But I re-read that piece again a minute ago and really had to laugh – that internal sense of outrage and jealousy – how dare there be rich and happy people in the world – why arent they down in the muck with me, where we should all belong! Its not fair!!!

Misery wants company – wants to bring everyone down to the lowest common denominator (though I have it wonderfully good, compared to 90% of the world’s population, so even that statement is suspect!).

Its so ridiculously funny, and its so heart-breakingly sad, the games I play with myself instead of just trusting and stepping into the glory of abundance!

It`s like breathing: it`s all about feeling relaxed and not stressing like “I want this, though”.

What`s ironic about it, I feel, is that first you have to relax and then everything will get easier….not the other way round!

Thanks Elyse for being a major teacher in my “remembering” this truth. After more than 18 months “work” with you and other like minded teachers, I feel my new paradigm strongly anchored and the world looks refreshingly alive and brilliantly different from this sensational perspective. Yes, there has been heaps of ego/conscious mind misinformation to clear & I give heartfelt thanks to those who have assisted me in the process. It has definitely been worth the “effort”!

These quotes and this beautiful experiment hold meaning and are thought provoking examples of the natural flow of energy for me. There is no need to stop the flow of our true potential for betterment (for me- otherwise noted in the following reflections and affirmations as ‘the flow’) as we are intended to live trust in The Universe.

What is the central message of each quote? The flow of creative potential flows freely!

Wonderful questions, I am grateful to be part of this experiment. Thank you all!
I will attempt to summarize and reflect in one go at it in hope that I can articulate my point(s) clearly, in advance I apologize if I do not.
As I understand, it is with restrictions and dams we place in the way of this flow stopping or limiting us to have all metaphysical manifestations or desires to be fulfilled. I observe and respond – a concise functional intention from the Universe stimulating creative potential energies that are to flow freely. Like the breath it is always there to function as it is intended to do. – No conscious thought required it is always there with out effort or resistance- let it flow. It is a function of energy equilibrium, in with love – out with love freely, we then feel relaxed. As a cosmic being we are a functional part of the diverse vibrant Universe, the energy flow is a natural pathway that resonates the cosmic being that we are. I feel this and know it to be a truth. With out conscious thought it is what it is to be.

It is clear that I need to accept the flow of creative energies, motivations and let it the flow move more freely, because I am the conduit for the Universe to resonate its positive energy flow in my life, stimulating all that is good within me and ‘what I ask from it’. A personal realization is we receive many life giving exchanges as all energies from our Universe these I feel are intended to instruct purpose for goodness of betterment. We are an important part of a larger brilliant environment- the Universe. ‘NO fear, stress or disappointments’- stop thinking our self from the flow. Flowing in waves of glory, prosperity that it will support our healthy vibrant life cycle, energizing our true purpose and feeding our potential to betterment.

May all be aware and love to live and live to love. BE blessed with knowing, all is good! Have a scrumptious life! Tears flow as I scribe the core of my being. I feel emotional and I love it! An evolutional path is unfolded for betterment.
-Richard Mac Innis ‘a cosmic being I am’ I trust The Universe!

~ What is the central message of each quote?
~ Do you resonate with the central messages?
~ How does it FEEL to read these words?
~ What shifts will you need to make to be living in alignment with this prosperous perspective?

The life force is every where. We open our hearts consciously and choose to receive this abundant Breath, LIFE force.
Yes, I resonate completely.
It feels like some fresh breath of air – re confirming what I am understanding .

Consciously align myself to let go the old images and belief systems and choose to receive the prosperity.

I am trusting the process more NOW

“you will satisfy a need for money by steadfastly depending on the Master Self within” This sentence really has my attention today. I have restated it as an affirmation and have been saying it all day: “I satisfy all my monetary needs by steadfastly depending on my higher self.”

Part of what I am struggling with today has been the word ‘needs’ because I have worked a lot on eliminating my use of the word ‘need’ as it implies ‘lack’ so to use the word need focuses on not having something rather than the having of it. But when I substituted the word needs with desires: “I satisfy all my monetary desires by steadfastly depending on my higher self” it really doesn’t say the same thing. I do that easily, I create my desires from within, visualize, virtual spending of the prosperity check, that works. But the first way: “I satisfy all my monetary needs by steadfastly depending on my higher self.” with ‘needs’ is really different, I don’t do that all the time. I feel it is saying that whatever I do in regards to money I line up my energy first before doing it. Sometimes I do but not every time. I realize there is a difference in taking the time to appreciate all I have and getting in a good feeling mood and then sitting down to pay my bills or get the mail and open my bills or even go grocery shopping. Usually I just do these things and then if I start feeling stressed about spending money or if things are tight then I work myself back up to feeling better after I have let the stress get to me. And I can feel how making this shift to always going within before taking action could make a big difference for me.

Then the second thing that it brought up for me was again about the word ‘needs’ being associated with money. How much money do I need? I can definately feel the level of my comfort zone around money and it definately relates to my actual income. If I am living comfortably and happy right now on this income do I really ‘need’ any more? I actually desire more but for what? It’s not for things and it’s not even about me really it’s about getting into a new level of enjoyment of life and that includes other people that I enjoy doing things with. So what hit me like a brick was well if I had $10,000 extra income right now today no strings attached and could spend it on anything would I even let myself? Would I just buy some plane tickets and take a quick vacation with my boyfriend when I know he could use the money for his house payment? If I did would he think me irresponsible? And if I had an extra $100,000 per year income would I even have the friends now that I do or would they not like being around me because I could afford to do things that they can’t afford to do?

So I realize I have a lot of discourse between what I monetarily need and what I monetarily desire and that there are a lot of factors that come into play here….. i

t has been good to think about these and will have to spend more time tonight journaling about these thoughts. I can see how important it is to come into alignment with these subjects.

The central message: attracting what we need is available to all and it is as unlimited as the air we breathe and best of all it is free!

I resonate with this completely! Everyday I attract what I need, it’s only when I get around doubters and unbelievers that I take a spiral turn downward.

I must continue to remain focused and aligned to the unlimited universe. I must feel the grandness and attract bigger things so that others can stop seeing my attractions as mere coincidences and see them as what they are, deliberate intention.

I am building my faith and trust.

I read the quote about breathing being like the abundance of money to my husband. It stopped him in his tracks. He became real quite and then replied that he really liked it. Then he told me about a tent trailer he keeps seeing that he would like to buy. In the past my initial reaction would be one of panic. Where are we going to get the money for that!! But I didn’t feel that this time. I saw it as an old pattern but it was very weak. Instead I said “Well why don’t you go and get it?” So I am so happy to say that my beliefs are definitely shifting.

But I keep getting stuck with the allowing of money to come to me. I try to figure it out for myself. For example, if I go back into the public school system and substitute teach to help me pay for going back to school, I sit down in my head and do all the numbers figuring out exactly how much money I could make if I worked this many days for this many months and etc. By doing this I put a block on myself, because I think “this isn’t enough money for all the things I want and need” so I have to find something else that will bring me more money. YUCK! So I don’t take the step forward to substitute teach, because I can’t figure out how the universe is going to bring me enough money.

I really like the quote that tells me that every moment I am feeling lack and scarcity, it is an opportunity from the universe to finally let go and depend upon the Master! So wonderful! Boy I sure do get these opportunities from the universe all the time!!!! So just do it!!! Trust, let go!!! Stop trying to figure it out!!!!!

happy day!

This statement is so true. Faith is the victory. When one is unflinching and unwavering, one realizes that just as our heart beats and we breathe without any effort of our own, prosperity comes in our lives the same way. Just believe and act like it. All we have to do, is ask the Universe for what we want and at the same time LOVE and FORGIVE one another. Peace!!

That there is ALWAYS more than enough and if I’m not experiencing prosperity and abundance it’s because I’m turning away from it. Because I’m afraid of it and/or think there’s something ‘wrong’ with being prosperous. My having does not take away from someone else having.

I think a part of me still believes in limited resources especially money and that’s it ‘wrong’ to have while others don’t. But I’m noticing more and more my words and my dreams are coming into alignment. I purchased a spa trip the other day on the prosperity game and last night I was dreaming of being at a spa. Feels like my subconscious is ‘buying in’

Bought at book today at Center for Spiritual Living service about tithing (which I’ve been doing on and off for 7 years) and it reminded me that when you ‘least’ feel like you can give is when you need to – because lack or feeling lack creates more lack. Whether it’s time, money, or love- if you don’t feel like you have it- give it! Love that. So this words in the quotes really resonated today as they echo that message.

I’m still seeing and noticing butterflies!

It feels great and expansive to read these words. To be in alignment I need to keep shifting my subconscious thoughts and to stay focused on thoughts of there is always more than enough.

To me, it comes down to the fact that worrying about lack of anything, just brings you down, if not more of what you’re worrying about. Easier said than done, and it’s a tough mindset to break out of, especially if it’s what your elders taught you through their own actions. I find if I get my mind off the problem, and rather engage it on solutions, amazing ideas come to me. It’s just So easy to get caught up, take on other people’s problems, take offence, feed the pain body as Eckhart so aptly calls it.

To me each quote points to the simple truth, the way to everything you could ever desire is within, and only by mastering your mind and self talk will you achieve it. Personally, I’m looking and learning within, rather than looking around outside myself for the answers, and I’m amazed what shows up “outside” once inside is on purpose. I’m really starting to love how i think : )

i’m experiencing a bit of a financial challenge right now – looking for the perfect vehicel to utilize my talents and god given abilities, and not sure yet what that vehicle will be – but i know it will be there when i need it.

i’m focusing on the solutions and believing that i can and will take care of everything i need, with the divine guidance of the universe.
the other day when we were looking for or expecting butterflies, i told my daughter about the experiment ( she noticed the print out of the experiment on my car seat) and asked what it was about. i hadn’t seen butterflies at all that day — sometime much later in the evening, in a dept. store buying stuff for her college dorm, she came running up to me with a package in her hand with a great big butterfly in it — she said, well, here it is! look!
she remembered, and i saw it – it was so cute — and i knew it would appear somehow. it was the ONLY one i saw during that experiment — but how nice to have it brought to me by my baby!
as dr. wayne dyer says…” you’ve got to believe it to see it.” yes indeed.

What do these quotes mean to you?

They reflect what my innermost Being calls me toward.

~ What is the central message of each quote?
1. Abundance, Prosperity is everywhere!
We never question, if we will have more air to breathe.
We almost take it for granted. It simply is.
I am grateful for the air I breathe and know how it feels to be air deprived.
I am choosing to open my heart to receive the prosperity all around as easy and gratefully as the air I am breathing.

2. It always is my Master Self which creates everything meaningful in my life. Who is this Master Self? Me as a whole being, as a being in alignment. I am responsible for this alignment.

~ Do you resonate with the central messages?
Yes!

~ How does it FEEL to read these words?
Reassuring, Uplifting, Empowering!
Elyse, thank you for sharing those quotes with us.
And thank you all for being so inspiring and committed!

~ What shifts will you need to make to be living in alignment with this prosperous perspective?
Letting go of my conditioned mind, meditating to get space and allowing
myself to be open.

I’d gotten behind in the game so I’m making a late entry, but it is so perfect that I read this today because interestingly enough I had the experience of fear and disappointment today that ‘mine’ isn’t going to come — that I can’t do it, or it won’t happen for me. Reading these quotes just makes me laugh at myself. They both resonate to a deep truth that I ‘know’ at my core but forget when i’m out in the world living my life. The quotes impart a beautiful message- abundance, ease and grace are omnipresent I just have to stay awake, trusting, relying on, and resting in Spirit instead of being distracted by and ‘depending on the world of form’.

What do these quotes mean to you?
It means that abundance is our birthright and comes naturally, like breathing. Once we master and know that within we will stop struggling to achivee prosperity.

~ Do you resonate with the central messages?
Yes; I do.
~ How does it FEEL to read these words?
Good

~ What shifts will you need to make to be living in alignment with this prosperous perspective?
that it all requires hard work

Abundance is as free as the air we breathe! Just breathe it in and breathe it out – you have to breathe out BEFORE you can breathe in again!

There is more than enough for everyone and once we realize that and become aware of it we will receive all that we desire. It is just as easy as breathing but we did not learn that. We learned that money and all the good things only come from hard work and we need to relearn what our natural power is.

Beautiful quotes! Thank you for those – Elyse!

Happy weekend for you all!

This is brilliant.
Reading the quote has created a shift in my thinking especially on how I am going to get all that I need to get done today done in a time frame.
I have a feeling of peace and am relaxed and all will be well and what a wonderful way to beging my day.

Every day the quote always seem just right for what is going on in my life.

My cheques are filling up and over the weekend I pray for a shift in my thinking. There have been so many feelings to address .
I began the program wanting more money in my life now that I have abundance of cheques I cannot deal with them Because I feel I am dealing with the Deep rooted Core Issuses, and have pushed my money issues back under the carpet.
This tremendous awarness and clarity I have allowed into my life is priceless to me. So I allow myself to clear out over the weekend and bring out into the open my money blocksa and allow myself believe and feel the abundance is feely given a fresh supply each and every day.

Thank you and have a really great weekend. God bless you all

I love the first statement and I try to remember it as I spend money, not to feel guilty or that it should all be put in a savings account; that it’s important to let it flow.
I only recently understood that it is not about having enough savings to last me for life but about having the confidence that whatever I need will manifest whenever I need it.
If I had read that second quote when I was setting out on my journey I would have said, “What the hey diddle diddle is this guy on about?” but now it resonates within me. I get it. I really do. Relax, let it flow – and sometimes, ask for help when you need it.

Abraham-Hicks

I am distracted by this quote because while I see its truth, I also believe that there are places on the planet where the air is not easy to breath and, may indeed be easier to breath in the morning.
But, back on track, this part “fear that you will be disappointed if it does not come” is very real for me. I think it’s good that I’m working with a life coach at the same time as doing this. Yesterday Jill and I talked a bit about my willingness to work for free or less money than I’m worth. She made me promise not to commit to any more large projects until we get further into the work we’re doing together.
I have had some evidence of the universe taking care of me in the past. That’s how I came to relax about losing contracts, because something better always came along.
I am stuck in just enough though and now want to attract more in cash, travel experiences, a significant other that fits my personality and happiness for Luc.

John Randolph Price in The Abundance Book
This says it is my birthright to have all the money I need to do the things I want to do. This is not how I was raised. I don’t think it’s what our society leads us to believe either. I also don’t think it’s all about money. We have a culture of lack going on in this world and it pervades everything – lack of water, species dying off, forests disappearing, ocean life crashing, peak oil, financial meltdown, medical care too expensive, education costs out of reach for many. There are places in the world where they do not live like this. Some are much better and some are much worse. But this quote says that every human has the birthright to abundance and it is our own mindset that fosters lack in individual lives. I find that hard to accept – not only for myself, but for the refugees in Africa. It may be the truth, but what a job we have before us to raise human conciousness and thereby conditions.
We must each start with ourselves. So, It’s nice to imagine that all the money I need is my birthright.

Oh Sahila! There but for “fortune” go I. At least we can laugh at ourselves for having had thoughts of envy and berating others that have money (maybe not “prosperity” which includes so much more than money).
When dealling with the flow of energy coming from the Universe, have you noticed that our usual concept of time is really very different than the clock we “Earthlings” function by?
Example: On our 17th. day of the Prosperity Game we were instructed to “Ask”. I did some asking and receiving (my friend does Copper Plate Etchings and I have wanted a certain one – I got it) though only asked a few and got no “No’s”. Oh well, I was busy with other parts of the Game and my own personal, rewarding play…….Today, as I’m reviewing what to do on the game this weekend and looking over the material I want to present to a Parkinson’s Disease support group, I realized that I HAVE been asking and I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING. In order to speak to this group that is 65 miles away from my home I need a car, which I don’t own. The organization I belong to, Parkinson’s Action Network in Washington, D. C. , for whom I am a Congressional Coordinator, has a fund to pay for travel and other expenses when a Coordinator is speaking as a representative for PAN. I thought,”maybe they wouldn’t give me money to travel to this event” – sort of like maybe I don’t deserve it. ALARM, ALARM. Well, I asked and I RECEIVED! YEA! I have a budget that will allow me to rent a car and cover all the expense of conducting the event. Wow! I guess I haven’t been paying attention – maybe we all do that and we’ll find that we ARE receiving and didn’t realize we’d even asked.
So, I will continue to look around in the “past” to acknowledge and record other occasions of having asked (without consciously being aware I’ve asked – you know, our thoughts create our reality) and realize that our time clock is not like the Universal time clock which is PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE – all of it right “now”. The clock in the Universe is multi-dimentional or something like that. The more we can acknowledge having received, no matter when, the more the door will open to receiving. Sometimes I think we focus too much on the tangible (I want that car) and while focused, block out the flow of other prosperity thoughts.
By the way, awareness about Parkinson’s Disease, what causes it, the research for a cure and supporting of those that have PD (I do not) is very important to me; I want prosperity of funding for research and prosperity in curing PD.
I’m so happy to be involved with all of you!! Thank You for being here!
Love and Joy to all !

How great to wake up this morning and read these passages. Last night I was in my hot tub, visualizing my ideal life and the prosperity of it. I began to visualize the deposits going right into my bank account on a steady basis, in the amount of $50,000 a week and growing from there — all without a thought about the “how” of it. That will come as I continue to ask for and see the abundance, and open to receiving it.

As I read this mornings message, I saw a moment of clarity. For this past week I’ve been getting ready for my big art show happening today and tomorrow. I have been focused on getting an exhibit that will knock the socks off my viewers. I set up a gift store area and took time with my display and clearly priced everything and made fun “sale” baskets etc. My point being…. I am learning how to market my art, I believe I am worthy of sales and what I sell is bringing joy into peoples lives for having it.

It is not so much what I am doing that is different, it is my attitude while doing it that has shifted. As I set up I stopped and admired every piece I’ve produced and was grateful that I chose being an artist as my life’s path.

To seal my hopes, I have been watching the art of Ken Burns about our
National Parks, and watch the passion and message he brings in his work. I am aligning my energies to him as how I want to live my life…in passion for what I’m doing, making a difference in peoples lives and contributing to the planet.

Blessings!

i love these quotes and they are so true! as Abraham always says ‘ the laws of the universe work even in our ignorance of them. so, it’s just about if we will will spend our energy resisting or going with the truth of who we are; they exist and will be active in our lives just the same.

i especially love the line:

” In the morning when you wake up, none of you stand out on your porch frantically breathing in because you are afraid that later in the day there will be a scarcity of air. …”

and from John Price’s quote from the Abundance Book, the idea of the Master Self within really get’s my juices flowing and I get excited just at the thought that Abundance is my true potential and natural state. I feel like a Super Woman knowing that I can change my circumstances by changing my belief system – by a shift in consciousness and so a shift in my point of attraction! WHAT POWER! almost makes me welcome the challenges.

guess this is what abraham means when they speak of appreciating the “contrast.” can we appreciate the contrast and the life giving and creative energy behind feeling the pure emotion of desire?

YES!! I CAN!!

it’s like as soon as we notice the contrast/challenge our desire is born and, as long as we are focused more on the desire than the contrast/challenge once noticing it, then the cavalry moves in and all manner of support moves in to manifest what it is we desire.

i love this!

what a great way to start the weekend. these quotes alone helped put me in a great vibration!

have a great weekend all!

though my mind is excited by belief of abundance flowing easily, my innards still tighten up when I worry about money. Now I have evidence in my life on how much this has changed, but there is still some resistance a little bit of doubt, but not the overwhelming struggle it once was. I like to imagine money just being put into my bank account, but logic always gets in the way (or the logic that was told to me for years) If I have all the air I need to breathe whenever I want why can’t I have abundance in every other area? I see this more clearly and will work on letting go of the how and just focus on the desire to have all that I need and want without knowledge of where it might come from, I’m stepping off the ledge and letting fear go!

oh, and good luck with your art show sheila! although, i know you won’t need it because who needs luck when our vibration is aligned with our desires! a successful outcome is guaranteed! i love the attitude of gratitude that you are experiencing and expressing for the work that you are doing and for where you are at this moment. very inspiring!

Depending on the Master Self within is the place I am at right now. I’m glad that I am here with full awareness of what needs to be done, because it keeps me from becoming stressed or preoccupied. It is sometime challenging finding a focus, and then I remember Michael Beckwiths words when he reminds us that when we don’t know what to do about a situation, to be still and know that I Am God, or whatever represents source to us. So my journey right now is to be still and allow the miracle to unfold, because I know I’m so very close. Thank you for the reminder.

I too like kathleen am experiencing an awareness unlike anything i ‘ve felt before playing this round of prosperity game. it’s delicious. i just took my mom who is disabled to her dr appt and on the way home i got a revelation that i don’t ask for fear of disappointment. i’ve been disappointed a lot in my life (maybe on some level my soul is attracting these people for the lesson they serve). somehow i ‘m less than because you have disappointed me (abandonment issues maybe). ask, and it’s either no or we’ll see (something my mother always said to my sister and me growing up).

and then i read those inspirations in the blog. i love it. it’s tasty. i deserve it and i am worthy and don’t have to struggle and fight for it (which comes from a need to win and enough is not enough).

like mary kate i do feel guilt for spending but i’ve gotten into the habit of asking myself i wonder what would a millionaire do NOW. LET IT FLOW. i’m learning that it’s okay and stay focused in being responsible financially. that’s not what our society teaches. it’s amazing how entrenched fear is in our society.

i am so grateful for the shift in our consciousness.

What I envisioned, reading these quotes, is that money is a form of energy just as the air we breathe. It circulates just as freely. We take in air, use its energy to continue our life, and then expel it to be recharged and used again by someone else. The quantity doesn’t diminish. Money too is taken in to our sphere of influence, and in using its energy to prolong our life, it gets re-circulated (recharged) so that others may use it’s energy as well. Hadn’t thought about it in quite those terms before. How did I feel reading the quotes? Free! A sense of uplifting and lightness came over me – like another chain being cast off. What shifts do I need to make? Well, I don’t sit down to my work everyday hoping that if I do everything right, I will be able to breathe again next month – so I need to attach my view of money to the view of abundant air. Just accept that it is energy available in abundance, and is there for my usage even before I need it. It is always there.

Money IS just another form of energy – but it is a human-created form, and as with all other human-created things, we have attached stigmas to it. We have created rules (stated and implied) about how much certain types of people are allowed to have and how you have to BE to get it……..

Time we changed that! Thank you.

I am SO grateful for the timing of these quotes. I started to lose track yesterday; I held the intention of seeing signs that the abundance, prosperity and wealth I’ve been asking for is on its way to me, but when I checked my mail, I received a notice that my unemployment benefits have been maxed out and I will not be receiving any more. I really started into a downward spiral and started worrying. And although I was conscious of the fact that I have no reason to worry and I always manifest a solution (and saw a bald eagle spiraling upward as I thought it), I still had a difficult time releasing the emotions that came with the letter. So, last night I finished reading The Science of Getting Rich and this morning I read some of Infinite Possibilities and The Vortex. I really set the intention today to find things that make me feel better, and seeing these quotes serves as yet another reminder that I can have everything I’m asking for and that I’m heading in the right direction! I’m so grateful and so appreciative to each and every one of you who is participating in this and contributing your co-creative energy to the manifestation of even greater prosperity/abundance/wealth/joy/love!

I feel like the subtle shift in consciousness is occurring as I embrace the Truth that my source, substance and supply is within me; that as long as I maintain awareness, understanding and acceptance that my source is God within, not anything exterior to me and more importantly that it is my divine birthright and inheritance, that its the Creator’s pleasure thst I experience the kingdom/queendom of rich, lavish abundance, I do see it daily.
I was blessed by a money breakthrough, a prosperity blessing circle and unexpected financial increase this past week and I’m eternally grateful, feeling the outcome of the shifts within.

Oh taste and see that the LORD IS GOOD is what resonates to me from this quote. Daily we are allowed all the elements to breathe in and out to give us enough oxygen for our hearts to beat, when we breathe our brain gets enough oxygen, and then our bodies expell enough carbon dioxide for external things to happen that it recycles, everything we need continously, perpetually, without any effort or help sometimes on our part, even the people that need oxygen there is an unlimited supply for them to get the oxygen. This made me think of this weekend my sister asked me did i have 50.00 for her to pay her car insurance, because she is in transition as far as her job is concerned, I thought hey I didn’t even pay my car insurance, yet but the new me thought hey, if this prosperity thing work, why should I believe I don’t have enough, and even if I gave it to her the universe would replace what I had given, in love with pure intention. I committed to giving it to her, and she said she would get it from me at chuch, but how about my daughter’s grandmother called and offered to take her out shopping, and I neglected to mention that I start a new job paying a whole dollar more than I asked the universe (GOD) for before I got there. This is no different then the scenario giving about none of go outside in the morning and breathe enough air in fear that we will have enough, just as you breathed in the first place you will have it again, and just as have the money you will have it again, and again. It’s really funny when I choose not to give into that poor me mentality and get on her and blog, it is so awesome how doing this bring into my awareness the prosperity just like the air we breathe is already in unlimited supply. Not only did my mother in law call and I start a new job, but my daughter who I have been estranged from is here this weekend.

The second quote reminds me of one day I had been out meditating doing some spiritual work, and I had left my bank card in the house and had no money on my person, my husband likes to drink coffee in the morning, I begin looking in my car and realized I didn’t have any cash on me, whatsoever, so I said, “Ok universe, you know what I have need of before I even ask, I would like a cup of coffee for my husband. I walked in the Dunkin Dougnuts, silently saying, “Ok universe it’s up to you, I walked up to the counter and asked for a coffee, and gestured as if I were looking for some cash, and then walked a way from the counter, and the cashier called out for me, “Hey, go ahead it is ok, take.” I stood there with my mouth opened and just looked around of course I thanked GOD for his omnipotent, omniscience, and omnipresence always and went home and shared this with my husband he called me crazy, and thanked me for the coffee, and said, “You give them people back the money.” I knew that day any other day that LOA works, hey if I can manifest a cup of coffee there is no telling what else I can manifest. This is what that quote is talking about there will come a time when you will have to search deep within in yourself to use the things that are in you to manifest things. I have what people called, “The Gift of Gab.” I can talk my way out and in things at the drop of dime that is a quality that I possess, but it was that invisible substance added to my visible that made it all appear. I am going to the Jay-z concert with the same sort of knowing on OCT 27,2009, AND SO IT IS.

I am blessed and honored to have known you,
Geneane Tyson

Yes, I definitely resonate with these quotes and…I choose to believe that it is a simple as that. I choose to NOT let fear or doubt stand in my way…forward!

I did not have time to post to the blog this entire week but I want to say, I saw the cars and lots and lots of butterflies; i felt the surge of energy of giving and receiving the entire week. And i know that prosperity has so many different faces, in so many little ways…we just need to learn to observe and give thanks.
like: On day 16, i was sitting in the car, waiting for my husband to come out of a business meeting: I tuned into a local radio show…and what were they talking about…positive mindset and the effect it has on our lives. Many callers called in with their feel good stories, from all walks of life. and i thought “what synchronicity – they did not even know we’re playing this game!”

I also learnt this week that we need to learn to ask, but not only for things that will add monetary value, but also when we need assistance or advice, or even when we want recognition for ourselves. And, we need to gracefully accept those things when they come our way – we need to learn to step into our light because it is in that light that we find our courage, our purpose and our belief that we are worthy of receiving whatever the universe offers. That it indeed is not only our birthright but also our duty to live to our fullest potential in order to keep the circle flowing for all those that came before us and will come behind us.

thanks to all for sharing this experience!

John Randolph Price’s The Master Self is so very much a Revolution of Consciousness, especially to Americans, that our financial abundance ACTUALLY Sacred Space is called The Flow, and that this very Universe is at the Helm, well what a leap of Faith it is to simply KNOW that ANYTIME we need guidance/council/help with direction(remember we always have free will, CHOICE), I call it The Anwers:) since I love the Big Picture, Lavish stuff, well when it is in my life, I am happy, and when we need help, STRONG HELP:), all we gotta do is go in and ASK:)! And let go of the fear/doubt/scarcity and all that is not nourishing, and BE HAPPY!

And happy opens up whole new worlds, there is NOT EVER a shortage of Dreams, is there! Someone in a post here was telling the story above about how we have been living in this country, this World and it is about things being damaged, shortages, cut backs, the nasty word Derivatives that our government and big business have played with with the result of LOTS of lack for all but a few, many stories and rough consequences, etc., SO THANK YOU FOR SPEAKING THIS AS A BIG PICTURE. I now can declare I do not want to continue to live into this, my Master Self says hey go way beyond this to

What do I choose to create for and with this World?

I love the quotes for today, they make me REMEMBER that I and God/the Universe are the TRUE creators!

May we all live and prosper!

Tonya

P>S> Today I meet this man who has a famous up and coming daughter, truly American-California raised , very savvy, she can DANCE and play drums/sing, beautiful, she is an up and coming Bollywood Star, her star is rising, and I am just meeting her dad, cute:). I listened to her newest music and I would like to sing one of her songs Stay by Tina Sugandh, a video is on YouTube. Interesting, all this, THIS:) is what the Universe is showing me this day. Neat:)!

I often notice I’ve forgotten to breathe consciously for a long while – yet somehow I’m still here!! Hmmm, good analogy there, thanks! It all boils down to TRUST – attitude and trust.
S

About the Abraham- Hicks quote…..so you breath in ..and receive and you breath out and you bestow….without thinking about it.?..you just do it.?..no fixation .?… that’s the challenging part …

About the John Price quote….”The time will come where you will satisfy a need for money by steadfastly depending on the Master Self within…..”
That part tells me that at some point..money will just loose its power over us…by that I mean we won’t be thinking about it all the time…maybe not at all..because it will just come in as we need it and go out as it is needed…what WILL be of extreme importance to us is becoming one with the Master Self within..

Abraham-Hicks quote is spot on. Once you acept the fact that prosperity is as natural as breathing, properity too is as natural as breathing, once you get out of your own way, and gently ease yourself into the affirmation process.
You have to rid yourself of all the negative stuff we are told about money & prosperity and then it comes.
We had an offer of a large sum of money for our house, but we aren’t taking it because it isn’t adequate and we know the agent is playing games. Oddly enough she doesn’t realze we know this so we just wait without any worries for the right amount. We don’t need to sell and we won’t.
AS my husband says ‘ never worry about money, something always turns up’ and he is so right

~ What is the central message of each quote?

For me, the message in Abraham’s quote is that we are able to step into the natural flow of things, where all things are effortless and abundant. It’s all just energy.

The message in John Randolph Price’s quote is for me that until we ‘get it’, we will continue to be sent the same old same old…

and yes, I resonate with both of these messages…

~ How does it FEEL to read these words?

“You are all MUCH closer to a financial fortune right now than you are even willing to dream about for fear that you will be disappointed if it does not come.”

ouch, yes, I have huge fear that it will not come, as I’ve been hoping (and taking action, not just hoping) for so long to lift my energy and vibrational level up into abundance and stop struggling. From here to there is a true leap of faith, but as my own business strapline is ‘Jump, it’s not as far as you think!’ I just need to take that leap now.

“Every soul must learn this lesson, and until it does, it will be given opportunity after opportunity in the form of apparent lack and limitation.”

This is possibly one of the most resonating statement for me this week – opportunity after opportunity – thank you for this, it feels soooooo reassuring. I’m laughing as I think about it – it’s a test and it’s so easy to pass – all it requires is a simple shift of consciousness. I know this, I feel it, I just have to make it!

~ What shifts will you need to make to be living in alignment with this prosperous perspective?

Focus on the flow, the breath of prosperity – visualise it coming easily and going easily, and gracefully. Remember that fear is excitement without the breath – get excited about prosperity – and remember to breathe!!

Also, become aware of all these opportunities – they are frequent. Practice asking. Remember to be ready to receive – I’m doing lots of good stuff, but getting paid too is even nicer!

Thanks so much for this experiment – it’s quite simply amazing!! xxx
have a fantastic weekend everyone

Abraham’s quote is beautiful and leaves me feeling hopeful and trusting. I love to hear the words “You are all MUCH closer to a financial fortune right now than you are even willing to dream about…”
The second quote seems to be a challenge. I still cannot see how great fortune can come from the struggle… My husband and I have had some very trying times financially – and we’ve made it through, and I had faith that we would be OK.
Now I have bigger dreams, and it’s so difficult to see past the veil of fear. I guess I keep getting stuck on the “how”, since I’m a SAHM with 6 children ages 5 mos, up to 11 years. I feel as though I’m dependent financially (on my husband), and my ways of bringing in money just don’t bring in alot (I make jewelry and I have a pro-breastfeeding image/logo that I print on bags/shirts). Actually, my image/logo presented itself to me as a million dollar idea, but I guess I’m trying to work it too hard.
It seems that the two quotes are telling me two different things. Abraham says don’t sweat it – it’s waiting for you, and the second quote seems to be challenging me to rise up out of my trials.
I’ll just keep being thankful for the real wealth and prosperity in my life right now – sweet, honest, authentic children, and a husband who is also my best friend, a warm home, opportunities to learn, passion for beauty… LIFE IS SWEET!

Hello, Thank you all for your words, so inspiring, if i come here distracted by cynism, as i read your comments, i feel my spiritual spine and posture straightening. i spend my check then come straight to this page to read the quote and your comments, my new freinds and playmates.

I am on day 15 but i keep up with everyone the right day,today, the qoute for day 15 is about wellness ” when you can convince a person, yourself, that wellness is the order of the day, there is no maladay that can endure” It is allthe same “when you can convince yrself that prosperity is the order of the day or love or health or whatever we desire, it is. “It takes no greater energy to manifest $1.00 than it does to manifest $3,000,000.”… did Abe say this? it is all the same so i guess the idea is about changing our perspective from many angels about MONEY, or the essence of the energy of having money,

but “the fear of not having prevents us from having” ?! a bit of divine nonchalance or who cares, so waht attitude, helps. The fear of having too much money prevents us from having not enough, the fear of not having enough prevents us… soo boring!

and just like any other desire, when we know we can rely on our Master self, always, money is just another desire to be fulfilled, ask and allow… ask and allow…

and dont forget ” i will allow myself to be prosperous” manifest this from within, I too am shifting in attitude, thinking, feeling an expanding awareness, lots of questions about what i thoguht, why did i think so.

I am so grateful I live such a rich life, so prosperously abundant, sparkling love. It takes me personally and all by myself to know that, I DESERVE THIS ABUNDANCE, that i am able to see, i created this, as i can know this, i can empower another one to know this truth also about themselves, it will show, they will recognize it. As I know that i am the chooser, I choose peace, I choose Love, I choose prosperity, I choose for my world to be a reflection of my chose. I am now creating the world in which we all have enough, as you all are. it is so much fun to be part of this.

As I read everyone testimonies and thoughts, I am becoming even more overjoyed. Both of the post to me are about having financial peace. Once we realize that everything we need is already there, the financial need goes away in a sense. simply because everything that we need is there.

I have had several breakthroughs this week as well. It is so funny that I am now reading today’s experiment now. I woke up this morning wandering if I should pay my tithes tomorrow or keep the money to pay a bill. I kept pondering and talking myself out of it but yet feeling guilty. But prior to reading the post today, I decided to pay my tithes and know that my needs would be met. I have faith that I am receiving an overflow of financial prosperity. I know this because I started receiving large bills in the mail.
My financial breakthrough has reached me under grace and in a perfect way.

I haven’t had a chance to read this blog in two days and I could feel my energy withering without these inspiring thoughts and messages. Just reading all of the posts from today brings me back in touch with the energy of abundance.

I’ve been preparing for a tag sale – my first ever – and all week I’ve just known that it will be successful. My husband is skeptical, but I chose not to take his cynicism in and, instead, chose to focus on doing whatever I could to make it a success. I feel proud that I didn’t cave in to his negativity!

My energy has been shifting so much that this feeling of possibility and of prosperity is becoming the norm for me, rather than the exception. I’m standing taller, I’m feeling more content, and I’m much calmer. I honestly trust that the universe will provide what I need when I need it. And, apropos the AH quote, I must trust in the abundance of the universe the same way I trust that I will have air to breathe all day. I feel so much lighter…

Thank you all.

I had not realised it until I read those comments but as I have slowly started to become more open, relaxed and less fearful about money the universe does seem to respond. The central message is to give up fear and accept the abundance that exists.

I do resonate with the central message in most areas of my life. I experience an abundance of love, joy, health, happiness and all those great things yet in the area of money something in me doesn’t quite believe it is the same.

It feels fantastic to read those words and actually believe them.

The shifts I need to make are in repeatedly giving up the idea that there is not enough money and reminding myself of all the ways that I have experienced an abundance of money already which I can often overlook.

Abundance to you all and thank you for the opportunity of sharing.

The central message is that we are always provided for. That we just need to BELIEVE more in ourselves and TRUST ourselves.
That if we can only place our faith within ourselves instead of outside of ourselves.
That prosperity is a way of being and thinking and living and does not depend upon how much money we have right now in our banks…That you can as easily take it for granted as you can the fact that all the air and oxygen you need will always be available to you…
it is such a liberating thought, sets you free from worry.

Ok everyone, I have to share, I am having an amazing breakthrough. Today was was a perfect day in a perfect way. A few days ago I had a nail in my tire. Went to discount tire and they wanted to charge me $240 to replace both of my front tires. I was going to go back after work to have it done. I spoke with someone at my company and found out that we have a division that fixes and replaces tires. It ended costing me nothing to have my tire fixed.

I went to the eye doctor today and found that my vision improved and I did not need new glasses. I left and went to the grocery store and ended up getting free toilet paper. From there I went to the bank and got a replacement money order that had been lost at Justice Court and the bank did not charge me the $29 fee. I then went to the casino and won $400.00. Then I went shopping and got a lot of sale items and a 30% discount.

I am so appreciative for all of my blessings because this is working out so awesome. The key has been to go to bed at night and feel appreciation for every little thing that happened to you that day, even feel appreciation for the comfortable bed that you are about to fall asleep in.

When you wake up in the morning feel appreciation for the new day and lie in bed for a few minutes and continue feeling appreciation for anything you can think of. It takes a few days but it has worked for me along with all the wonderful messages that I read on this blog and this prosperity experiment.

I look forward to more abundance from the universe and rampages of appreciation everyday.

I bought a lottery ticket where the jackpot is 14 million. I must admit, that much money scares me. What if the money brings unknown and unwanted changes in my life? As I reconsider the fear I remind myself that prosperity is a mindset, whether I have 14 or 14 million.
In recent days i have witnessed money flowing to me effortlessly:
an unexpected $10 cash back coupon at the pharmacy was handed to me upon purchase of household items, buy one get one frees at the grocery store, I found a forgotten and unused gift card, a governnment rebate arrived when I expected tax forms, and other small windfallls. I did some shopping yesterday and enjoyed every second of it, and love my purchases, no feelings of doubt or guilt, just joy and gratitude for my new items.

I love the A-Hicks quote . I found a sand dollar I got last year in Haiti and it was as if heaven’s magic was appearing as a gift in front of me. my snorkle instructor gifted it to me and at first I asked if it was “o.k.”, as I felt guilty taking it from the ocean, but he insisted saying”there are millions and there’s no shortage”. A few days ago I put that sand dollar next to my bed and now it’s my symbol. If God could create sanddollars in abundance then of course paper dollars work the same way!

Opportunities are presenting themselves and more times than not I find my first reaction is to limit them!!! this is fascinating and it’s time to stop holding my breath or hyperventilating about my financial security. The security I’m building within will surely manifest in my reality if I keep the faith!

” In the morning when you wake up, none of you stand out on your porch frantically breathing in because you are afraid that later in the day there will be a scarcity of air. You breathe in and you breathe out and think nothing of it. What we want to get you to understand is that it is the same thing with dollars (or anything else), there is no need to go out and hold your breath in an attempt to hold on to the air in case there is a later lack. You are all MUCH closer to a financial fortune right now than you are even willing to dream about for fear that you will be disappointed if it does not come.” — Abraham-Hicks

The central message has 2 parts: Part 1 Is that I need to think about money like I think about the air that I breathe… In and out.. In and out… effortless… It’s everywhere… Inhale..Exhale… And part 2, is that I am much closer to a financial fortune than I am allowing myself to believe because I didn’t want to feel the disappointment if it did not come. In other words I didn’t want to dream about it and I didn’t let/allow myself dream about it because I didn’t want to suffer the disappointment or the feeling of disappointment if it didn’t come.
I resonate with the first part of the central message because, now I know the truth. I also resonate with the second part of the message very well and I’m getting better and better every day, at believing, allowing myself to dream, for I’ve always believed in miracles…
How does it feel to read these words? It feels like I’m explaining how it used to be, and how I used to feel and now I’m getting a better understanding of how it should be and is becoming more and more of now; how I now have a much better understanding of my financial fortune, and am now more open to receive the abundance that is in store for me as well as already mine.
The shifts I needed to make were in believing: I do believe now that I am much closer to a financial fortune than ever. Now, I am willing to dream about a financial fortune, freely, without any fear of disappointment.

“The time will come when you will satisfy a need for money by steadfastly depending on the Master Self within — and not on anything in the world of form. Until you do this, you will continue to experience the uncertainties of supply for the rest of your life. Every soul must learn this lesson, and until it does, it will be given opportunity after opportunity in the form of apparent lack and limitation. You may be experiencing such a challenge right at this moment. Realize that this is the opportunity you have been waiting for to demonstrate the Truth of your birthright.” — John Randolph Price in The Abundance Book
This is telling me not to depend on persons or conditions for my prosperity. My abundance comes from the Infinite Master Self Within me. And , that I will experience lack until I learn deep down inside myself, this truth of my birthright; that there is a Master Self within me. And that I need to depend on that, and not any outside influence/condition/standard.

HELP!!! I’ve lost my resolve. I have been so happy and confident through this experiment, but today is different.
One of the things I chose to create during this experiment was the modification on our home loan. We are only 3 weeks away from the forclosure sale. We have been told that the modification is approved. We have even been given the new payment and interest rate. But we haven’t recieved the paperwork and its been over 2 months. I’m in contact with someone every week. This is the home we created together for our retirement. Our dream home. Our forever home (I borrow the term from dog rescue). We drew the plans together at our kitchen table. We watched it being built, even helped on some of it. We have moved in and are now living here after two years of waiting for other things to align.
It is so exciting to feel how good it is to live here. I have been sure that the papers are here now. I wait excitedly expectant that the papers are here. I know in my heart that we have not been brought to this place of happiness and joy just to have it snatched away. How do I keep my head from getting in the way? I know that when more than one person sees the end vision, it puts more energy towards it and helps it materialize. Just writing this has helped me feel better and helped restore some of my faith. If anyone has any ideas or extra energy to send this way, I would be most appreciative. Thank you for giving me a place to connect. Since we have just moved to this community, I haven’t met anyone here with similar ideas yet. So this experiment’s community has been a blessing.

I wrote the above when I first got up this morning before reading the blog. I guess I need to follow the advice of the AH quote and quit holding my breath. Like I said, I know in my heart that this will all work out and that we haven’t been brought here just to have it taken away. I have been able to (most of the time) live in the feeling of it all being finished. In my mind, I see us celebrating with our friends, having Christmas celebrations here and just overall enjoying life after the papers are signed. So it must come.

Thank you all. I haven’t been able to sit down and read and participate for the last couple days. I guess I didn’t realize how much energy and support is here.

The AH quote means to me that I can quit thinking about how to bring prosperity to myself. I can actually take it for granted (just like breathing) that all is mine and is manifesting. I can be like the animals who never worry about where things come from. They simply enjoy life and their needs are met.

The other quote tells me the same thing. I don’t have to force it, coherce it, or anything else. It is there for me to have. Just trust the higher self, or universe or whatever you want to call it. This does not have to be a struggle. Isn’t it exciting!

I think my challenge will be to remember these quotes. I think
I will put them somewhere I can read them daily. What I feel when I read them is Freedom. Its all so easy if we just let it be that way.

Love, Light and Prosperity to all

Yes Kathy, just remember to breathe…surrender those fears to the universal forces…and also, i think, sometimes we need to disconnect from that very specific outcome we seek. the universe always knows what is the best outcome for us…we just have to believe that sometimes those unexpected outcomes might have huge treasures installed for us.

many blessings to you

Like there is enough air for everyone, there is enough prosperity for everyone, the supply is endless. All who are conscious of the abundance of the Universe are living abundantly, all we have to do is to trust the process of Life and all is Well

I am so grateful to be in flow — I am in a place of trust that is really powerful.

When I read quotes like these, I don’t feel so small or insignificant like I used to. I feel like the world is open to me and everything I want or need is there for the asking. I am open to receiving these gifts heart, mind and soul.

Hi Kathy, I dont now if this helps, but i saw a video on youtube about a women who’se house was being forclosed and she asked the bank for the original paperwork and contract that she signed, they could not produce it since they bundled her loan with many others which went to someone else and then to someone else and she got legal approval that unless the bank could produce her original contract, they could not continue with the forclosure.

i had an aha moment at some point during my day yesterday as i continued to ponder the quotes that elyse posted.

and since my unexpected money has not arrived as of yet (like seeing the butterfly and the orange car last week), and although i’m not consciously worried and still very much expecting it, i do realize that somewhere i must be resisting if even in the smallest of ways. – otherwise, it would have manifested already.

so, over this weekend in thinking of the quotes and scanning my being to determine where i might be resisting, i realize that i do do this thing where when i get a check from a client – particularly a check that has more zeros than i currently have in my bank account – i actually hold onto it, sometimes for days, or even longer, if i don’t need the money at the moment. i get such a thrill from seeing a check with my name on it that sometimes i will just keep it on my desk and look at it throughout my day as a reminder of how abundant i am.

in my mind, when i do this, it is similar to the prosperity game in that i am getting a check with my name on it and i am relishing and getting excited about it. EXCEPT that when i do this with “real” checks, i realize now that instead of immediately depositing and spending it – because i know more is coming – i hold onto it. i’m stopping the flow. if i were confident that more is always available to me, i would not need to hold onto what i have.

i’m doing what Abraham says in the quote – i’m holding onto it in case there is a lack later: “there is no need to go out and hold your breath in an attempt to hold on to the air in case there is a later lack.”

again, if i knew and believed without a doubt that another check was always coming, i’d have no need to hold onto the ones i get.

also, i realized that last week after i saw the orange car that i intended to see and the butterflies, i did get a little scared about the unexpected money showing up – or, actually, about the unexpected money NOT showing up;. like abraham says: “You are all MUCH closer to a financial fortune right now than you are even willing to dream about for fear that you will be disappointed if it does not come.”

there was a part of me that thought “what if it doesn’t come.” the fear of disappointment.

the feeling is like being afraid to let go of the handle on a trapeze even though you KNOW there is a net below. like i let go with one hand, but am still slightly holding on with the other – even if only slightly with the tips of my fingers.

as a card i have in my apartment says: “LEAP AND THE NET WILL APPEAR!”

more unconscious layers of disbelief that i’m now aware of. getting closer! this is good.

Thank you, Lerie and Rainforest. I am breathing again. There is enough for everyone. And, Rainforest, I will definitely check this out.j

First: Good luck, Kathy! I trust all will work out for you; keep breathing!

Second: suhailah – your metaphor of letting go of a trapeze resonated with me. Letting go is a difficult thing for me to do, but I think I’m going to use the trapeze metaphor as a visualization of sorts – picturing myself letting go without fear, just with the confidence that I will bounce on the net and be ready to swing again.

Third: I had my first-ever tag sale today. Everyone said, “are you sure? it’s a lot of work,” and things like that. My husband (”RKS”) was completely against the idea – he just wanted to get a dumpster and ditch everything. My sense of responsibility towards the environment as well as to people who could use these things wouldn’t allow me to toss everything. So RKS kept getting in my way and rolling his eyes and telling me over and over how against it he was. I didn’t give in, I didn’t get (too) angry, and I calmly continued to prepare. I’ve believed all week that in addition to my primary goals of making a little money and having other people take things away without my doing much shlepping, there was some other reason to hold this sale – someone or something significant was coming to me today.

Okay, so here’s the thing. RKS and our son took my signs to hang them up around the neighborhood. I had put arrows on them so that they’d be easy to follow to our house. And I drew up a map of where I thought the critical spots would be. I let go of the need to control this myself and trusted him to do it – even though he was against this in the first place!

As the sale progressed, several people commented about the signs and how easy they were to follow. We made over $170 (!), people took things away without my having to do much of anything, and we met a mom and daughter who will now be babysitting for us! We need a babysitter three times in the next two weeks, but had no leads or contacts. All of the sudden, this sweet, lovely girl is standing in front of us, quoting us less than previous sitters, and she’s only a sophmore in H.S. so we could use her for nearly three years before she graduates!

All three of my goals for the tag sale were met with effort that was significant, but productive, cleansing, and calm – I felt no pressure at all while I worked.

After the sale, we were driving our daughter to/from soccer and collected many of my signs. My husband apparently ignored my map and plopped the signs any ol’ place he felt like. Of the eight “major” sites, he’d put signs at three of them. I was really upset – he could have sabotaged all of my work. Thankfully everyone found us, but, especially after reading suhailah’s posting, I’ve realized two things. 1) People found us and took many things away so the energy I put out there worked, regardless of where the signs were placed and 2) I relinquished control of the sign-posting to RKS but perhaps I didn’t truly “let go” of the control – I clung to the trapeze because I knew he’d screw it up and if things went badly, I could blame him – there was my net. Does this make sense?

Okay, off to bed, feeling pretty great about my day and about how much clutter I’ve started to clear out!!!

Peace and abundance…

I haven’t yet posted this weekend although I’ve lurked and read several times! Finally a moment to WRITE…!

So… Like Suhailah my material success is still on its way. Having said this I continue to have affirming experiences that I am on the Right Path. And when I wander off it, I am quicker to remind myself that hey- I’m making this happen- I’m inviting in what I’m giving out. Thursday was a super day- I felt good and the day felt good. Friday I had a rough day at work and as my attitude sank my day likened LOL !! =) And Kathy I hear ya. I’m refinancing too (not at this moment but I will be) and it’s tough when it’s such a massive financial undertaking, and has such big implications in our lives to TRUST isn’t it? I know I struggle with that. I’m focusing my efforts on how I feel lately, because my emotions are what I project out there. Not easy..!

I love the quotes today. I love the breathing analogy. And the Master Self? Again, being a tarot nerd, I see the MAGICIAN (look it up at http://www.biddytarot.com/major/magician.html). He has all the ingredients on his table in front of him to make anything manifest. He has it all within reach. As do we. We all have the ingredients. As I continue on this experiment every day I reflect on what can happen, what is possible. I talk to myself in the car and I say out loud “I can imagine that income comes from both expected and unexpected sources. It’s possible that I could receive income from them. I see other people receive prosperity all the time…” and I reflect on who, and how, and yada yada. Like coworkers who win prizes, or watching The Lottery Changed My Life (!) or whatever it is. The Universe GIVES- I see it all the time! And I’m GLAD for those people who are able to receive!

Congrats Cindy on the declutter! I just spent the day in similar fashion, cleaning… no – DETAILING the house. I literally scrubbed and polished as much as humanly possible (mom’s visiting tomorrow lol) But in doing so I find myself more able to organize my Self, my thoughts through cleaning and organizing my environment. I have a massive pile of donations now at the front door and a list of items to post for sale online on Kjiji.

I have no doubt that in time, with practice, with trust and unlearning a few things that I will grow into a better Magician who sees everything on the table in front of her, making Magick happen!
=)

ps Ginger your Creations (jewelry) are amazing. There are others here who are also Creators – I think with anything you need to just tell the world about you and your abilities. Network, blog, link to other people! Together we can get the word out about you and bring you prosperity !!

there s enough. it is the father’s good pleasure. there is enough. i realize now why it is so hard for me to grasp the million dollars in my checking account. on some level i still only see lack. somewhere there is still that belief in apparent lack and limitation. i cannot see otherwise. why? because there is not enough, i believe.

well there is enough and it is the fathers good pleasure…money is the visible sign of that energy…in its origin it is divine. it is the father’s good pleasure. that is the source of my abundance and prosperity. for now i will keep up front there is enough and more where that came from.

i open to experiencing a million dollars in my checking account.

The Abraham Hicks quote that compares money to air makes me feel much freer.
I found myself working to feel the truth of this statement as I breathe in and out deeply, enjoying all that air that there is to breathe. It is a wonderful thought that money can be the same.

John Randoplh’s quote though for some reason made me a little anxious. I know it’s not meant to but somehow the idea that it is my own Self that creates this world of struggle makes me feel heavy with responsibility, when I know it should free me.

Still, it’s handy to to be able to label my present situation (or my perception of it) as an “opportunity”. That’s kind of funny.

I think I will go back to focussing my appreciation of air. We hardly appreciate it because we do not feel a lack. This perspective though makes me appreciate the preciousness of the gift of breath. I am relishing breathing in that beautiful air. And I enjoy the idea that financially I can breath in deeply in this same way. Big deep, lovely breaths.

these last weeks have been filled with golden light and happiness – the sailboat on which I have labored long and hard has become a source of pleasure and fun and new and deepening friendships – people actually enjoy coming out on “Lark” and sailing with me and relaxing after –
apprecaiting and taking care of what I already have … (so much) not pining after what I do not have – I have so much to steward including finally loving myself – and the sadness and mourning (22 years now) lifts away like a low-lying swamp fog, evaporated by the bright sun and heat of morning …

now my self imposed imitations and clamping down – this job can be utterly demeaning and miserable if I let certain women (always the women, right!) play their nasty games …I am worth more – and will shine just by doing my honest best …

I so love this challenge. The two quotes for today are great reminders. I’m new to John Randolph’s words but they grabbed me by the gut and heart and I had to read them again and again. He summed up what I’ve been practicing. My abundance is not dependent on one client, one marketing technique, one investment etc. It’s dependent on me allowing it in! I, like you all here, already have rockets of desire/visions of what’s wanted/gratitude for all I/we have. What I have some days better than others is the trust that it’s all so. It’s subtle though.
The sneaky ways I’ve been sending out a negative vibration of not enough money are the ones I have to watch.
Just wonderful Elyse and so good to hear everyone else’s comments and inspirations.

yea i have to watch those sneaky ways too g.cox. the fact that my checking account says less than what i would like it to say is the opportunity to demonstrate the Truth of my birthright: that i am enough and worthy. that there is enough and it is the father’s good pleasure. and that i must depend on the Master Self from whence comes my prosperity, success, abundance and all things good

AH – HA!!!!!!!!!

These quotes mean to me that there’s an abundant supply of money out there and everyone can easily tap into that by trusting themselves and following their intuition and not listening to the nay sayers out there who believe in scarcity. I’ve been having a tough time these last couple weeks with this “experiment.” While I certainly believe in it and everything I’m reading my emotional state isn’t matching up like it was the first week. I’ve found myself surrounded by a lot of outside negative energy and have taken it on in my own emotional state. It’s a good lesson for me because I know that ultimately I’m learning how to maintain my own feelings of abundance, love, and prosperity in the face of such negativity but at the same time I want that now so I can feel good now. Probably the biggest shift I’ll have to make and the main reason I’m being so challenged in this “experiment” is learning to simply follow myself and what I know is best to do for me. I’ve said this before but it seems to be a challenge I haven’t quite overcome yet. If anyone has any suggestions those would be much appreciated. Thank you!

What do these quotes mean to you?
~ What is the central message of each quote?
Abundance is at our fingertips. It is only our own fear of scarcity that holds us back from knowing and experiencing the true potential of the abundance available to us.

~ Do you resonate with the central messages?
I do resonate with the messages. The first quote rang true to me right away but I initially felt resistance to the second one. The Abraham quote speaks so clearly and precisely about our resistance toward trusting that there will always be enough of everything that I feel it’s almost impossible not to resonate with it.

The second quote was more difficult for me. I felt a strong resistance to the words “Master Self” and thus felt resistance to the message though I understood it on a deeper level. I have spent the past couple days sitting with the words “Master Self” asking myself what I don’t like about them or why I would resist them. After giving myself time and asking myself questions I’ve unearthed some of the feelings toward my resistance. Those feelings were based on limiting beliefs about myself and abilities. If I hold limiting beliefs about myself then I cannot really believe either of these quotes. Only when I release those limiting beliefs can these messages get through on more than just and intellectual level because they talk of self-reliance and faith in self and abilities – endless potential.

~ How does it FEEL to read these words?
The more I read the words the more real they become to me, the less resistance I feel toward them.

~ What shifts will you need to make to be living in alignment with this prosperous perspective?
I must shift my energy and beliefs about myself. I must let go of any and all negative or limiting beliefs I hold toward myself. As long as I hold self-doubt, criticize or berate myself, hold back out of fear of failure or fear of success – allow fear to overrule my desires – I am holding myself back from my true being, my potential, my true self.

My holding on to the belief in lack, and thus holding on to money itself, is actually holding me back from being in the flow of abundance and prosperity. What strikes me about playing this “game” is the certain knowledge that more is coming in tomorrow–even more than I have today. This is the Truth with which I begin to resonate.

I read these quotes and the message speaks to me on one hand and the other gets anxious – what if I don’t believe enough, what if I’m not enough. I understand that I am creating scarcity and then i allow myself to hear the message. There is enough, more than enough of everything – including money and prosperity, to love and to accept. I can be free of the constraints of the past, free from the hangups, the fear, the doubt, the worry. I am free to receive, to be grateful, to ask.

I believe in the laws of prosperity. God is my Source. My clients are not the source. My family is not the source. My checkbook is not the source. God is my source. I am confused at times as to my role. When do I take actin and cut back on expenses to free up room for more abundance and when I do I continue to give and believe that more is on the way.

This game is a great place for me to think and write down these thoughts, to be honest with myself and the others who are playing with me. As part of the group energy and learning and listening to the others in the group, I am free to share my fears and to share my anticipation of the prosperity that is on its way.

I am not sure why my post did not save. Perhaps this is not the place to ask for help in understanding?

I do not understand this logic because air is only available in the right circumstances. Yes, I breath heavily and hold it when I enter water. It is not present in a vacuum and I would not be able to manifest it.

So, do we not also need the right circumstances for money?? While both money and air are the same energy, would it not follow that because we can not create air that we can not create money? I truly do not understand this.

I have been stuck for a long time in that second quote. Years ago I used to manifest frequently. I felt masterful then. Then something happened. I made a change in my life and I stopped feeling good about myself. I stopped feeling masterful. I felt out of control and little again. It took me a long time to figure out that I was now dealing with my inner child and she did not feel masterful. She was taught so many things about lack and limited supply. Now I can say that I am beginning to feel masterful again.

Something struck me when I was rereading Doreen Virtue’s “Healing with the Fairies.” A being Doreen was talking to made a comment as to “Why don’t humans manifest what they need instead of using the earth’s precious resources?” They said that is what they do. This made me think. I have manifested money in my wallet when there was none (out of thin air). The Universe is the source of my supply. People and circumstances can bring me those things, but it doesn’t have to be that way. In all the old teachings don’t they say “Know thyself?” I think this is what is meant as “depending on the Master Self within” from the quote above.

I have a friend that has moved five times in the last two years. I have been frustrated with her because each time she doesn’t take her stuff with her. She gives it all away. Well wouldn’t you know it, every time she she has moved she has manifested new furniture, pots and pans and dishes. I could learn something from her.

Maybe this could help.
Air is our natual state of being or living. We do not live in water or in a vacuum. For fish it would be water.
When we are in our natural state, air is abundant and we dont have to think about it. Breath in, breath out. Money energy
flowing in and out is our natural state. Money in, money out. We dont have to think about it. But when we are fearful, (and all the other emotions that go with that) we are out of our natural state and even air does not flow easily. Ever notice how much we hold our breath when we are in fear? So I think that the quote is simply stating that we should be living in our natural state. When we choose to live outside of our natural state, then things stop flowing. Just like if you held your breath long enough, you would stop the flow of life, by living in fear we stop the flow of money (and alot more).
I don’t know if it helps but I just had to express this to you.
Love and Light

That you, Kathy. That does help-living in our ‘natural state.’ And, your comment about ‘holding breath when we are in fear’ will be with me today. I find myself holding my breath often.

Thank you!!!!
Enjoy your day!

The time will come when you will satisfy a need for money by steadfastly depending on the Master Self within — and not on anything in the world of form.

I love this and I feel like I am getting closer to living this reality everyday…I have always felt that this was so but never had anyone to believe it with me and just thought that I was a bit too idealistic…I am so thankful to be part of this community!!!

The centralized message here is have faith that prosperity is our God given right just like breathing, if you are living then this is what you are entitled to, this is an awesome analogy and yes I get it!!! I finally understand. I will keep this analogy in mind until it becomes part of my being.
Thanks so much for this awesome community.

Faith that we are meant to be prosperous can be found every single day. The world is full of evidence of this in my opinion. I am especially convinced this week as we just sold our house for top dollars withour really advertising it and am about to buy our perfect unit to suit our peripatetic life as we now live it. We also found the perfect office in the perfect place at the perfect price.
Apart from this, every morning we enjoy our coffee watching the glorious bird-life as it passess through at various times that suit each species as the sun rises and the world gradually wakes up. Life is grand and everyewhere you look there is evidence of the joyous prosperity we were meant to enjoy.
