Thanks Angela!
yes!!!
aabbcc: this is an intention...
One very important point in the Abraham-Hicks teaching is that you should focus on what you want, and NOT on the lack of it (or you will attract more of the lack...). Unfortunately, for some people (including me), it's difficult not to focus on the lack when intending in present form. When I state something in the present, I'll immediately be aware of the fact that it is not true now. Consequence of this is that I will focus on the lack of my goal. Example I want to live with a dog, but I'm totally broke at the moment so I cannot afford it. If I think "I have a dog, I have a dog.." I will automatically think "no I have not..." at the same time, and focus on the lack of dog!
To resolve this problem Steve gave the advice to focus on the present moment and intend the current slope of the curve between now and your goal to increase. That's a great idea! For my part I prefer to think about it in terms of probability: "the probability that I have a dog is increasing permanently right now..." Because that is true and it is now! So I stay in the present and I don't get any negative thoughts.
This method of "wouldn't it be nice" is another solution to this problem. Instead of saying "I have a dog" or "I want to have a dog" (which would raise contradictory thoughts and block the manifestation) we say "wouldn't it be nice if I had a dog?". Saying this I have no reason not to agree with this thought => no negative thoughts => no focus on lack => manifestation
And I think such a question can be a very powerful intention. No need to use a hammer "I have a dog I have a dog I have a dog"... If you put a lot of positive emotion in this question and concretely imagine how nice it would be indeed, maybe visualizing it and feeling how it would feel like... it's enough intention to manifest.
But if intending in present form already works for you, that's great! You're lucky! Don't worry about all this then!
I don't know if what I said is right. Others, please correct me
