Now, emotions are simply indicators of how much energy you summoning towards your goal/intent/desire. They are not the energy itself however.
In any manifestation there are 3 components. The belief component, the attention component, and the desire component. Now the desire component is the result of contrast, or your natural experiences, which causes you to want or ask for things you currently do not have. This sets off the attention component which causes you to summon the energy of your conscious awareness towards the object of your desire. This will go off without a hitch unless the belief component (also known as the "resistance level component") negates or retards the flow of energy or if you kept your attention on the contrast that gave rise to the desire rather than the desire itself.

Emotions are validators or pointers, as you've stated. The three components you outline are true in the broad sense.
Desire arises from contrast to our perceived state, yes. If we perceive we do not have something, we form a desire for what we don't have and focus our thoughts and attention upon it.
What we perceive is based upon what we believe. So as far as I've been able to understand it, perception revolves around what we believe.
If we perceive we lack anything, this points out our belief in lack. We've chosen to see lack by choosing to hold onto this belief. But in truth this boils down to our
resistance to abundance.
If we accepted abundance unconditionally, we'd not perceive or experience lack of any kind, thoughts of lack, or any emotions arising from lack.
