I want to offer a few quotes from the book "Ask and It is Given" by Esther and Jerry Hicks which might help to explain to some why instant manifestation might not have worked for you in the past.
Page 15.
"Perhaps the question we hear most often from our physical friends is: Why is it taking me so long to get what I want?
It is not because you do not want it enough.
It is not because you are not intelligent enough.
It is not because you are not worth enough.
It is not because fate is against you.
It is not because someone else has already won your prize.
The reason you have not already gotten what you desire is because you are holding yourself in a vibrational holding pattern that does not match the vibration you desire. That is the only reason - ever!"
Page 25.
"Every thought vibrates, every thought radiates a signal, and every thought attracts a matching signal back. We call that process the Law of Attraction."
Page 27.
"Worrying is using your imagination to create something you do not want."
Page 27.
"Nothing can occur in your life experience without your invitation of it through your thought."
Page 29.
"You cannot desire something, predominantly focus on the absense of it, and then expect to receive it, because the vibrational frequency of it's absense and the vibrational frequency of it's presence are very different frequencies. Your desires and your beliefs must be a vibrational match in order to receive that which you desire."
Page 73.
"The Law of Attraction always yields to you the essence of the balance of your thoughts. No exceptions. You get what you think about -- whether you want it or not."
Page 96. This is one of my favorites.
"Sometimes our physical friends will say 'I'm stuck! I've been in this place for a very long time, and I can't get out of it. I'm stuck!'
And we always explain that it is not possible to stand still or be stuck, because Energy, and therefore life, is always in motion. Things are always changing.
But the reason it may feel to you as if you are stuck is because, while you are continuing to think the same thoughts, things ARE changing --- but they are changing to the same thing over and over.
If you want things to change to different things, you must think different thoughts. And that simply requires finding unfamiliar ways of appraoching familiar subjects."
Now that I flip through this book, I see that a lot of the questions people have are already answered in this book. Perhaps people should pick it up as it gives a more detailed "how to" compared to the movie "The Secret". Frans, let me guess, you wouldn't buy the book because Esther and Jerry Hicks are just scammers right? Shame.
