Mastermind - What's On Your Mind?

GREETINGS:

The group welcomed new and former members. We opened the floor with an intention for the evening and members shared.

GUIDED MEDITATION:

Eddie opened with a lighthearted guided visualization to help members release their resistance.  

MEMBERS SHARED THEIR WINS FROM LAST MONTH:

A few people shared wonderful things they’ve accomplished since September’s meet up by using Abraham-Hicks philosophies.  Some of the manifestation stories included:

- Harper Collins publishers interested in putting in an offer for one of our authors.

- Member returned from the Far East doing a beautiful documentary series.

- Another member just returned from a trip to England, Wales and Scotland.

- Classic vocalist trained in Opera is cutting her first Jazz album.

- Tax Accountant shared how she coached her clients to use law of attraction principles with the IRS. As a result, $6000 in penalties and late fees were dismissed. 

 - Adopting a new, perfect little kitten into a family.

ABRAHAM-HICKS VIDEO:

Taken from AbrahamLive.com, this pod cast is focused on “Momentum.” (AbrahamLive.com videos are no longer available). For new members to our group Ramona explains how Ester Hicks channels the energy of Abraham.

SOMEONE WAS CONFUSED ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MAKING AN INTENTION AND THE CLARITY OF ASKING FOR SOMETHING FROM THE UNIVERSE.

ANSWERS:

An Intention is something somebody plans to do or achieve. Having purpose. A decision is something that somebody chooses or makes up his or her mind about, after considering it and other possible choices.

The group encouraged her to keep intentions and decisions a little more general for now so that she doesn’t get bogged down in the specifics of “how” and “why.”

Make one small powerful decision at a time. If that outcome is not 100% of what you do want then you get to make another decision because now you’re clearer than you were before. Each decision builds upon itself, carrying the decision maker higher into a better feeling place.

Someone shared “Intention is not about the result.” Both intentions and decisions are set in motion mostly because we want to identify how we want to be feeling.

“How do I want to be feeling when I get to my desired outcome?” and, “How do I want to feel during my journey on the way to my desired end result?” Keeping the feelings general is most powerful because you want to essentially feel good, happy and ultimately you want to feel connected to you source.

You want your intention and decision to both line-up with each another. You can do this by asking for “The highest and best to come to you.”

These feel-good emotions married together with pure intention and powerful decision-making creates amazing and obvious shifts in our minds and realities and practicing this method consistently changes our lives for the better.

Oprah said, “The word intention changed my life because I realize that I must have a clear intention behind my ideas.” She told all of her producers that they must have a clear intention behind their segment ideas for her show.  As a result her team continued to dominate the ratings in the entertainment industry.

When asked how this member felt about the word, “Decision” she acknowledged that she didn’t like it much; that she didn’t like to make fast decisions. On a scale of 1 to 10, ten being the best she says, “Decision making for me feels like a soft five.”

Because our decisions and sometimes our intentions are in the middle of the road energetically, we’ll attract to us a neutral, middle of the road outcome with subjects that are hugely important to us.

In essence, when our pure feelings are lined-up with clear intentions and powerful decisions we’re operating off a 3x stronger fuel than normal. The longer we hold this said energy the greater our results are. 

SOMEONE ASKED “WHEN YOU FEEL WORRIED AND OUT OF THE VORTEX – WHAT DO YOU DO TO GET BACK INTO THE VORTEX?”

Ramona talks about the times she got out of her vortex setting up for this meeting because  the screen was not available, the Wi-Fi was not working and the seating had to be rearranged because of it.  After stressing out over it Ramona says, “I had to finally just laugh about it and go with the flow. The second I did, everything came together and we’re having a great meeting.”

Another way to get back into the vortex is to turn Abraham CD’s up loud while doing housework and paperwork so that you can bask in the essence of the message. This elevates one’s thoughts to a better feeling place.

Carilyn shared the “All That’s Well With You,” message from the Abraham-Hicks workshop in Asheville, N.C. and the audience loved it.

I WANT TO BE AN ACTOR AND DIRECTOR BUT I’M WORKING A JOB I DON’T LIKE. I KNOW MY ACTION SHOULD MATCH MY DESIRED OUTCOME, BUT EVERY TIME... HOW DO YOU KEEP FROM PROCRASTINATING?

Procrastination only means you haven’t lined up your feelings yet. Procrastination is a form of resistance, but figure out what your beliefs are that are blocking you from your ultimate desires and don’t beat yourself up for dragging your feet. Remember, Abraham says when we’re putting something off it’s only because we haven’t lined up our energy to do it.

Someone shared her favorite money quote from Abraham and explained how she used it years ago when she was going through turbulent financial times. It’s simply, “Bring me dollars that will thrill me and support me.”

Appreciating your current job, whatever it might be is a great exercise because when we appreciate something our energy gets higher, faster and more pure. This pure frequency then magnetizes more of what we do want into our lives.

Someone suggested that appreciating our existing job is a great way to pull our dream jobs to us. Thanking our current workplace for helping pay the bills, for being a transition position and for giving us a place to practice staying connected to source consistently draws a better quality of life to us.

The group shared that our actions should match our feelings. An example of this would be the, “Whistle While You Work” song from Disney’s, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” Regardless of what action-oriented task we’re doing, we should do what we can to lift our feelings while doing it. This is important because our action only creates .01% of our physical realities while our feelings create the other 99.99%.

A friend suggested that she doesn’t get caught up in the “goal setting” as much as she enjoys staying ramped up in the inspiration aspect of her goal.

Then there’s Abraham’s 17-second game. Another member refers to it as Miracle Math:

17 seconds of feeling good is = 2,000 action hours worth of labor expended.

34 seconds of feeling good is = 20,000 action hours worth of labor expended.

51 seconds of feeling good is = 200,000 action hours worth of labor expended.

68 seconds of feeling good is = 2,000,000 action hours worth of labor expended.

OTHER SIMPLE WAYS TO CREATE A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE:

- We’re always attracting whether we know we are or not.

- Law of Attraction is about deliberately creating what you desire.

- The more pure energy you flow, the faster your manifestation can come to you.

- Doubt and fear is another form of resistance to your desires.

- It’s important to learn to joyously live in the moment and expect the best.

RAMONA CLOSED THE MEETING with the following story:
An anthropologist proposed a game to children in an African tribe. He put a basket full of fruit near a tree and told the children that whoever got there first won the sweet fruits. When he told them to run, they all took each other's hands and ran together, then sat together enjoying their treats.

When he asked them why they had run like that when one could have had all the fruits for himself, they said, "How can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?" 

Our next meeting will be December 4 at SpiritWorks.
