Article 21
ALLOWING
You really have no other choice but to allow [others] to have whatever experience they are attracting, because you cannot think for them or vibrate for them--and therefore you cannot attract for them.
True Allowing is maintaining your own balance, your own joy, no matter what they are doing. So the advantage that you offer them is that as you remain in balance, connected to your own Inner Being, aligned with the wonderful life-giving resources of the Universe, and you hold them as your object of attention, they benefit. The more you feel good as you hold others as your object of attention, the greater the power of your positive influence.
You will know when you have reached the point of Allowing them to be, do, or have whatever they want (or do not want), when as you are aware that they are doing it, you are not feeling negative emotions about it. When you are an Allower, you are feeling joy as you are observing the experience of all.
The Law of Attraction is responding to the vibration of your thoughts.
As you deliberately offer your thoughts by choosing thoughts that feel good, you allow your connection to your Inner Being, to who-you-really-are. When you are connected to who-you-really-are, anyone you hold as your object of attention benefits. And, of course, in all of that, you feel joy!
In time, you will be so aware of how you feel, and you will become so adept at deliberately offering your thoughts, that you will predominantly be in the state of positive attraction. And then (really, only then) will you be comfortable in letting others create as they choose. When you understand that unwanted things cannot assert themselves into your experience, but that everything is invited to you and by you through thought, you never again feel threatened by what others may be choosing to live, even if they are very close by--for they cannot be part of your experience.

| Excerpts from the Law of Attraction by Esther & Jerry Hicks:CAN WE GIVE ATTENTION TO SOMETHING THAT' |
|
|

Article 22
CAN WE GIVE ATTENTION TO SOMETHING THAT'S NEGATIVE AND NOT HAVE A NEGATIVE EMOTIONAL RESPONSE?
You cannot. And we would not suggest that you try. In other words, to say never have negative emotion would be the same as saying "Do not have a Guidance System. Pay no attention to your Emotional Guidance System." And that is the opposite of what we are saying. We want you to be aware of your emotions and then guide your thoughts until you feel relief.
As you are focused upon a little (negative) thought, you will feel a little (unwanted) negative emotion. And if you are sensitive to the way you feel and want to feel better, you will change the thought. It is easy to change it when it is a small thought and a small emotion. It is much harder to change when it is a big thought and therefore a big emotion. The emotion will be proportionate, in intensity, to the amount of thought that you have amassed by the the Law of attraction. The longer you stay focused upon what you do not want, the greater and more powerful that thought will become. But if you are sensitive to your emotions and you withdraw your attention from the unwanted subject very quickly, you will begin to feel better, and you will stop the attraction of this unwanted thing.

| Excerpts from the Law of Attraction by Esther & Jerry Hicks:THE SCIENCE OF DELIBERATE CREATION |
|
|

Article 23
THE SCIENCE OF DELIBERATE CREATION: DEFINED
We have called it the Science of Deliberate Creation because we are assuming that you want to create on purpose. But actually, it is more aptly called the Law of Creation, for it works whether you are thinking of what you want, or of what you do not want. Whether you are thinking of what you do want, or whether you are thinking of the lack of what you want (the direction of your thought is your choice), the Law of Creation goes to work upon whatever you are thinking about.
From your physical perspective, this equation of creation has two important parts: the launching of the thought and the expectation of the thought--the desire for the creation and the allowing of the creation. From our Non-Physical perspective, we experience both parts of the equation simultaneously, for there is no gap between what we desire and what we fully expect.
Most humans are unaware of the power of their thoughts, the vibrational nature of their Being, or the powerful Law of Attraction, so they look to their action to make everything happen. And while we agree that action is an important component in the physical world in which you are focused, it is not through your action that you are creating your physical experience.
When you understand the power of thought and practice your deliberate offering of it, you will discover the powerful leverage (in creating) that only comes from desiring and allowing. When you prepave, or positively anticipate with your thoughts, the amount of action required is far less, and the action is much more satisfying. If you do not take the time to align your thoughts, far more action is required, without the satisfying results.
Your hospitals are filles to the brim with those who are now taking action to compensate for inappropriate thoughts. They did not create the illness on purpose, but they did create it--through thought and through expectation--and then they went to the hospital to take physical action to compensate. We see many people spending their days exchanging their action for money, because the money is essential to the freedom of life in this society. And yet, in most cases, the action is not action in joy. It is an attempt to compensate for misaligned thought.
You have intended action; that is part of the delisciousness of the physical world in which you live. But you did not intend to do your creating through physical action--you intended to use your body to enjoy that which you have created through your thought.
As you set forth your thought in advance, feeling positive emotion, you have then launched your creation, and when you walk through space and time toward that manifestation in the future, expecting that it will be there . . . then, from that joyful creation you have launched into the future, you will be inspired to the action that is action in joy.
When you are taking action in your now, and it is not action in joy, it is our absolute promise to you that it will not lead to a happy ending. It cannot; it defies the Law.
Rather than being ready to jump into action to get the things that you want, we say think them into being; see them, visualize them, and expect them--and they will be. And you will be guided, inspired, or led to the perfect action that will bring about the process that will lead you to that which you seek . . . and there is a great difference between that which we have spoken and the way most of the world is going about it.

| Excerpts from the Law of Attraction by Esther & Jerry Hicks:YOU INVITE IT BY GIVING IT THOUGHT |
|
|

Article 24
YOU INVITE IT BY GIVING IT THOUGHT
We know that you are not inviting, attracting, or creating it [that which is unwanted]--on purpose. But we will say to you that you are the inviter, the attractor, and the creator of it . . . because you are doing it by giving thought to it. By default, you are offering your thought, and then the Laws that you do not understand are responding to your thought, causing results that you do not understand. And so, that is why we have come forth: to speak to you of the Universal Laws so that you may understand how you are getting what you are getting, so that you may understand how to gain deliberate control of your life.
Most physical Beings are so completely integrated into their physical world that they have very little conscious awareness of their relationship with the Non-Physical world. For example, you want light in your bedroom, so you go to the lamp by your bedside, turn a little switch, and watch the light flood the room. Then you would explain to others, "This switch causes the light." But you understand, without our explaining, that there is much more to this story of where the light comes from. And so it is with all things that you are experiencing in your physical setting. You are explaining only a little bit of what makes things happen. We are here to explain the rest to you.
You have emerged into your physical dimension from your broader, Non-Physical perspective with great intent and purpose. You have come forth because you wanted this physical experience very much. This is not the first of such experiences for you. You have had many physical, as well as Non-Physical, life experiences. And you have emerged into this one because you want to add to that continuing evolving Being that you-really-are--that Being that through this body and through these physical senses you may not now know, but that Being, indeed . . . that broader, expansive, growth-seeking, joy-seeking, evolving part of you.
You do not rmember the details of what you have lived before you came into this physical body, but your Inner Being is fully aware of all that you have become, and is continually offering you information to assist you in living in the most joyous way possible, in all moments in time.
As you emerged into this life experience, you did not bring with you the memory of that which you have lived before, for those details would only serve to distract you from the power of your now. However, because of your relationship with your Inner Being, you do have access to the knowledge of that broader perspective, or Total You. Your broader Non-Physical part of you communicates with you, and has done so from the day you emerged into this physical body. That ocmmunication comes in many varieties--but all of you are receivinb the basic communication that comes forth, in the form of emotion.

| Excerpts from the Law of Attraction by Esther & Jerry Hicks:EVERY EMOTION FEELS GOOD OR FEELS BAD |
|
|

Article 25
EVERY EMOTION FEELS GOOD OR FEELS BAD
Every emotion that you feel is, without exception, communication from your Inner Being letting you know, in the moment, the appropriateness of whatever you are thinking, speaking, or acting. In other words, as you think a thought that is not in vibrational harmony with your overall intent, your Inner Being will offer you negative emotion. As you do or say something that is not in vibrational harmony with who-you-are and what you want, your Inner Being will offer you negative emotion. And, in like manner, when you are speaking, thinking, or acting in the direction of that which is in harmony with your intentions, your Inner Being will offer you positive emotion.
There are only two emotions: One of them feels good, and the other feels bad. You call them all sorts of different things, depending upon the situation that brought them forth.
