I am in complete awe! As some of you may know from my previous post, I was reacquainted with the book a few months ago, and immediately thereafter fulfilled a dream of owning a house in the forest. I had no idea I could even afford a house in the forest, let alone California, so I wasn't really looking. But the book inspired me (the dream resurfaced in my mind while I was trying to conjure up some Clear Mental Images of what I wanted), so one day I decided, "why not??" And within a week, I had found a house and opened escrow. And to my surprise, my loan went through (honestly, I still had a bit of doubt mixed in with my certainty - though that seems like a contradiction, it's true. One moment, I believed wholeheartedly that it was possible, the next moment, I wondered what the heck I was thinking to begin with!)

This unexpected & sudden gift got me so excited I decided to believe that I could afford anything, even ANOTHER house! After all,why not?

Three days ago, my agent called me and told me there is a new listing that he thought was perfect for my needs (to fix up & re-sell). I HADN'T EVEN ASKED HIM TO DO A SEARCH FOR ME YET! And today I opened escrow on this 2nd house!

I often feel as though I am not following the book to the letter, simply because in all honesty, I DO have doubts, and when they come up, I replace them with faith as much as I can. But I know some of them slip by unnoticed throughout the day and that I don't catch them all. And I don't do everything with purpose, as much as I try... the tasks of the day (work, paying bills, chores, etc.) often come and go and I realize only hours later that I hadn't performed those particular tasks with intention & faith, on purpose.

And even with that, so many wonderful, wonderful things have come my way. And I'm just in awe of it all, when merely 6 months ago, I was heading in one direction that did not include all these things, I picked up the book, and suddenly, here I am.... with two houses!

Though a big part of me knows this is my rightful state, to have all things, as the book says, there is still a small part of me which doubts. And I have moments of grand thinking followed by moments of limited thinking and vice versa, and the cycle continues.

And I wonder, if all this amazing goodness & abundance is happening even WITH my doubts, how much more good & abundance would happen once my doubts are eliminated????

I can't even imagine....

but on the other hand,

...why not??????

I beleave that you "created" two houses but you are obviously not 100% in line with SOGR.
Strange...

Maybe you just received confidence from book (sogr) to make decision and buy house. How much you pay for the houses?
I have also two houses and one small at the seaside (coast) but I work for that. I paid my houses and my cars in cash. No credit.

Hi Muadib. Yes, you are right... not 100% in line with SOGR. Working on it, and the doubts are less and less now. I think, at least for me, it has been like a wave of awakening, creeping up slow & sometimes crashing upon me, and then pulling back only to gather more energy to crash upon me again. There used to be 100 doubts a minute, now sometimes there are 20, sometimes 1, sometimes NONE! One thing for sure, it keeps getting better and better!

I can't question it, just have to continue to give my thanks, and continue to do the conscious work, and continue to receive!

Congrats on manifesting your desires (in the form of houses & cars). And no credit is SUPERB!!!! My blessings for your continued success.

Tree
What a fantastic story. I first read the book in June this year and have been on and off it like a yo-yo. Your story has given me the incentive to pick it up again and follow the teachings.
Many blessings to you all.
Kindest regards,
Andyp

Thanks Tree!
We are allways creating!
It is impossible not creating anything!
We only have to chose what!
And we are allways choosing, even by default, i.e when we choose appearences to be our foccus.

Thank you.
You are a shining light to us.


Since last 11/11/2004 manifesting will be more easy. Some of us are co-creating certain events in order to align energy magnetic field of Earth. This is work done in multidimensions off beeing. All of us, we are working to heal or to be healed with energy in severall dimensions.
We don't remember what we are doing on the 5 or 6 or...12 dimension of our being.
So when we made some contact with this higer regions of spirit we represent this as light beeings like angels, UFO's or others.

But this is the 3D language - we could not conceive information chanalized from higer dimensions to others dimensions.

We are BIG, very BIG my friends.
We are in the begining of a NEW ERA.

Now we don't need to ASK, like we have done in the past, to some one separeted from us:
NOW we just create what we want, all of us we are CO-CREATING with Spirit or GOD.
But in order to do this we need to express our intention, in some form of vibration.
So, try talk aloud, it will be more easy my friends.
We are interconected in the subatomic level in this Inter-Dimensions or Layers of our DNA.

Since last 11/11/2004 planet Earth are interconected by the PORTAL 11:11 in other dimensions, directly to the center of our galaxy.
Pay atention to what shows up, specialy to some sicronycities betwen some events aparently separeted in the 3D World.

Now it is more and more easy to manifest what you want, express your desires, talk aloud, and pay atention to what shows up, you will know what to do in the next step.

Nothing strange about it at all, actually. And how would one ever be able to measure whether or not s/he is "100% in line with SOGR" anyway?

I've said this before in The Certain Way and the course and it's essential so I'll say it again: The moment you make even a tiny shift in your thinking, awesome things can happen.

It's like steering an aircraft carrier or a massive ocean liner. Shift just a degree or two -- not necessarily a whole 180 degrees -- and before long you'll end up in an entirely different place than you would have if you had continued your previous course.

It's so exciting to read about the manifestations - proof that "it works". I have just completed the book and become involved in the online course, but for the last year I have been following the same principles. I took risks, believed good would come and watched things fall into place with gratitude and wonder. Now I am becoming more involved with this teaching, and can share my experiences with others. Thank you all for sharing.

Thank you Rebecca That's a good picture, a litle shift will make greate changes in the world.

Congrats, Tree. What a magical thing to happen. I am very happy for you.

But friends...I need HELP.First off, I have not been able to find on the "well being" site anything about depression and anxiety disorders etc..nor anything about medicines for this.

Very often I cannot control my thoughts..this is not mind over matter. it's organic. And I've tried as if my life depended on it..sometimes it does.

I am glad to hear some of you have doubts about SOGR. I have too. I have been trying , trying and trying...but nothing "clicks" about this. And I do not know why.I am not afraid of success.

Today I came close to another panic attack...I trigger so easily these days...but I distracted myself by singing and dancing...the i worked on about 4 collage's for my website. But all the dogs were very unruly which only made things tense.

I got a call early this morning from an old dogdaycare client...she wanted to know if she could drop off Lucy for a bath ? I asked her if she was asking as a result of the letter the woman who bought my business(for about one week) and she said yes. I told her she was a fraud and that we do not do grooming .But that if she needed daycare we were here for her.

There is no telling how many of my customers had gotten this letter, that said my prices have been raised, and that we offer several other services and that I board dogs. I am getting all kinds of calls about boarding and I have to turn them down. And I'll bet they are not pleased about the Rates change(which I did not do) I may lose even more customers because of this.

Today I also interviewed a prospective buyer for the biz. I could tell I'd never hear from her again. A lot of the time she kept pointing out "how successful(three other )city dog daycare's were"...and here I was trying to make a decent pitch when I had 5 instead of 40 like the others. I told her long before she came out that it would be a fixer- upper. I told her I'd Give it to her, as long as she signed the lease.

It was Very disheartening...and I tried to apply the question"What good can I get out of this ?"Nothing that I can see...and it feels like things are just getting worse and worse.

I don't know what to do. Please don't tell me I "don't" believe or that i need to 'pull myself up by my bootstraps".

I Am doing the course, but it just hasn't done a thing for me. And what I Mean by that is that it pretty much reads like a number of the self-help -books I've read over the last 20 yrs. I wanted so badly to sound this out to today, but all I knew to call would not understand.

I used to call myself a recovering-victim. i broke that habit years ago, but I feel it creeping back. Years ago when I was a constantly practicioning wiccan, for whatever reason, I Felt my Empowerment.and it truely felt like Magic. I could create what I wanted.

Now it just feels phony and I end up just whining or crying. SHE doesn't hear me better just because I am in pain.

This is all I can manage to write right now. I had to get this off my chest.

Blessed be,

Brandy

Amazing44 you are holding a certain picture:

This is your backgrund picture, isn' it?
You see, you are creating a frame of mind but this is what you don´t want, isn'it?
Shift your thoughts my friend.
You are very BIG, you are conected to the source. Please express what you want. When you are thinking this is bad, try to be grateful, this is your best oportunity to afirm your POWER.
Express what you want, write it, read it alloud. Repeat this at least 3 times. Use Postit's to remind you the result intention you are expressing. If you want ispiration ask for it alloud and pay atention to what shows up. Follow it, this is the next step.


But the important thing is shift your thought.

Amazing44,

What a heartfelt post. First, I just want to clarify that my doubts are not about SOGR or the validity of it... deep down, I KNOW it is true. I feel this truth down through my bones. The doubts are part of my old programming that come up out of habitual patterns of delusional thinking (illusions or appearances) that I have learned to be true in the past. But they are not truth.

So onward and upward we go!

Your post says so much about you & points out so many wonderful qualities you have that I am surprised you are not happy! Here is what I read (between the lines of your somber words):

You are WILLING to grow and learn and change yourself and your life for the better - otherwise you would not have read all those self-help books.

You are a TROOPER - you've been searching relentlessly for truth for the last 20 yrs.

You are PASSIONATE & HEARTFELT & AWARE - otherwise instead of crying you would be numbing yourself out in front of the TV and you would not even know you're unhappy (believe me, so many people have no idea they are, as Thoreau says, "leading lives of quiet desperation")

You are COURAGEOUS & RESOURCEFUL - you have somehow managed to create your own business. Don't undermine it regardless of your "5 instead of 40 like the others." How about "5 instead of ZERO like the others who are slaves to their 9-5 jobs"? It takes a lot of WORK & DEDICATION to create one's own business.

You have alot of DETERMINATION - otherwise you would simply fall back into a life of complacency & not care whether or not you are happy and/or successful.

And you obviously do CARE.

You are STRONG and STRONGER than your thoughts - otherwise you would not have been able to distract yourself by singing and dancing (how fun!) and instead would have had that panic attack. If you were able to distract yourself for even one minute, that is proof that you are able to distract yourself for many minutes. Just keep doing it one minute at a time. Eventually those one minutes will add up to 10 one minutes then 20, then 360 and beyond!

You are RESILIENT beyond belief - you did the work necessary to break a bad habit in the past so it is further proof that you can break other bad habits (or the same one if it surfaces again). (Plus I can tell you've OVERCOME quite a bit in your life)

You are PLAYFUL and FUN - otherwise you would have chosen something else besides singing and dancing - like perhaps counting the kitchen tiles.

You are SUPER TALENTED and CREATIVE! The collages on your website are beautiful!

With all of those wonderful & positive qualities (and so much MORE that I haven't even mentioned for the sake of keeping this post somewhat shorter), I surely have no idea WHY ON EARTH you're not smiling right this very moment, looking yourself in the mirror and exclaiming at the top of your lungs, to yourself and to the world, just how amazingly beautiful you truly are!?!

Thanks Tree for this thread. Am learning from you & enjoying your wonderful contributons to the forum family.

Amazing 44,

I thought Tree's post to you was GREAT. I'm hoping to really start practicing that kind of acknowledgement of successes, however big or small in my own life.

This morning I was seeking posts to help me to "hear" truth that will help me to move forward. I came across "This is new to me", in discussing the book section. Especially Candlekate & Croz spoke to me, & there were many other wonderful posts there. Maybe it will help you too.

Mega blessings to all,
Hope

One more thing!

Rebecca's post is sooooooooo helpful.Tiny shifts. What a blow to my UTN (up til now) expectations!

I started to mention agreeing with the example of turning the ship around, & reread Rebecca's post, & it says "steering" the ship ~ as in forward. Am learning through posting. Gives me a more hopeful & realistic perspective of one step at a time, & evaporates all or none thinking.

Am grateful for alot of seemingly little things that have happened over the past few months that have been the result of any thoughts or steps I've taken the certain way! On to solution thinking (tiny shifts) today.

Mega blessings to all of you,
Hope

Wow, Tree. Fabulous. Thank you.

Yes, the list of Brandy's wonderful and positive qualities could go on and on. One I'd like to add is that she's a DOG PERSON. Dogs represent Brandy's human qualities of LOYALTY, ATTENTIVENESS, FORGIVENESS, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, ACCEPTANCE, HIGH ENERGY, and BOUNDLESS JOY.

That's a lot of excellent stuff to work with.

Hello Brandy

I have no doubts about SOGR.

Hold that thought. You are empowered at all times. SHE hears everything and responds in kind at all times.

It truly is Magic, the Magic of Life.

Blessings to you my Friend

Dear readers!
Dear Brandy! Read this talking alowd and tell me what do you feel!

“Thank you for the grand and wondrous abundance that I am. Thank you for the river of money,which flows through me. Thank you for the abundance and richness I see reflected all about me which shows me how abundant and how rich I am. (Softly) Thank you, thank you.”


....
"Thank you for what is now.”

...
"Does that sound powerful to you? - "Thank you for the love in my life. Thank you for the love which surround me.” - You see? “Thank you for my perfect body. Thank you for my health and vitality. Thank you for the miracle of life that I am. Thank you for the gift of life that I am and the miracle and gift of life that I see reflected all about me. Thank you, thank you.” (Speaks softly) See how powerful it is? "

Do you feel the same?
I think not: When you read this words you feel diferent because you are shifting your thougts and you are talking it alowd!

Well, this is part of an article about "Repetitive Patterning & the Spoken Word" click here to read the full article. This is P’taah Channeled by Jani King. I think this is very similar to what we learn in SOGR. The article is divided in 2 parts. here you have part 2: Repetitive Patterning & the Spoken Word continued...
We need to pay attention to our spoken words, they are very powerfull.

When i read this article i feel that i am discovering something that i already know inside of myself. What about you?


Quoting the article:"... the place of transformation is now.
The place of change is now.
For as long as you are ‘wanting’ or ‘needing’, whatever that is that you desire,
you have put into your future and that is where it is going to stay."

Isn't it what we are reading here in this forum in other posts?

-------------------

Thank you ALL so much for your wonderful words of encouragement. Yes, I laughed and smiled a lot.Read the mantra/prayer and took it in. It all helped.
I wanted to share with you that today I wrote all kinds of encouraging affirmations(present tense) on a bunch of post-its..and put them everywhere(at my business) that I knew I'd seen them.

I also wrote a letter to...anyone(but I had an old boyfriend that I had in mind of 28 yrs. ago), saying I was writing to tell you how Happy I am and how well I am doing.

It was a looooong letter, so I won't write it all here, but I spoke of the Dogdaycare that i created(you are right Tree..and I was told by so-called professionals I couldn't do it.), I talked about how I just sold it to a wonderful persona dn that we're both happy. i described my day, loving taking care of my home, my partner and dogs, going to the gym and spending 4-6 hrs. a day in my studio(music playing).

I said I'd lost a lot of weight, loved to walk and was eating healthier than I'd ever had. I spoke of the designs on Cafepress and(soon to be ) Ebay selling like hot cakes, as well as told about the great children's book I wrote that had become a big hit.
I also went on about my partner and our relationship, friends and family and especially about a deeping and growing Spirituality.

That was about it..and I have read it 3 times today.

And at work I have been doing 4 great collage's.
(Thank you, Tree)

I *felt* good today. Outdoors it was brisk and
windy and I felt Alive with wonder.

It was a good day.

It was "Sufficient unto the day."

Brandy

Amazing44,

If you were here right now I would give you one massive crushing love hug!!! But you're not (at least not physically anyway), so I will send you one through the airwaves... Did you get it?

I am soooo happy for you. Just look at the difference between your first post and this most recent one. The energy has completely changed - and YOU did it! YOU created this "good day".

You are amazing. Thank you for touching my life.
Peace & Love to you.
Tree

Hi Oliveiros,

Whenever I chant this i can sense the awesome power of joy and abundance.

Thank you,thank you, Oliveiros thank you too..



Abundance to all!

Hello to everyone,

Wow I just finished the book for the 2nd time. I read it for the first time about a year ago. This time my heart was more open so I received the message a lot clearer. When you really look at it, it's simple, just do the math right.

I started reading it again because my business is not where I know it should be. So I wanted to get in my gut the clear picture of where I want to be in life and also where I want my business to be.

I'm glad I finished it on a Sunday afternnon, so I can go into this week with a bang and focused on what the book sugested. The one thing I believe that holds me back sometimes is fear. At times I think I have a small fear of being successful. Does anyone or has any of you ever felt this way? It seems silly to me why would I be afraid of obtaining my goals?

Any feedback would be appreciated and I'm so grateful to have a place like this where I can open up and share with like minded people.
