We’ve talked before about trying to find better feeling thoughts when they just aren’t that easy to come by.  When we have a “minor” issue going on, it’s not so tough.  There are plenty of basic things in our lives that are worthy of appreciation and it’s pretty easy to focus upon them when we’re experiencing a little “blip.”

Then, there are those times when we have what we’ve deemed a “major issue,” and finding those better feeling thoughts can be a little tougher.  Notice that I did not say impossible, just a little tougher.

It can be powerfully motivating to reach for those better feeling thoughts, even in the midst of what I was calling “The Perfect Storm” of contrast in my last post.  I did vow, though, to stop calling it The Perfect Storm.  That phrase doesn’t really conjure the vibe we’re looking for.  What is powerfully motivating is the fact that if we linger for too long in that lower end of the vibrational scale, feeling depressed, anxious, overwhelmed, fearful, worried, expecting the worst, we now know that we will attract a scenario which matches that low feeling vibe.  Fortunately, it takes quite a bit of wallowing in that low vibe to actually manifest a vibrational match to it.  Thank God for that.  In comparison, it only takes anywhere from 17 to 68 seconds to begin to turn our momentum around.  Once we’ve focused like a laser on something that feels really good for 68 seconds, the Law of Attraction will operate to bring us thoughts that are vibrationally similar and we’re on our way to turning things around.

One aspect of focusing which I’ve raised a few times because I find that it helps me immensely, is to focus on the fact that everyone really wants to help us.  We have a team that is so close by and watching our every move.  They are literally standing by to give guidance, assistance, and a feeling of comfort at every moment.  And, I’d like to expand on that and take it a bit further for those of you that resonate with this idea.

I noticed a recent quotation that added some strategy to the notion of using the non-physical help available to us and I think it bears repeating:

“.  .   . if we were standing in your physical shoes we would do this every single day.  We would look upward, and outward – it’s best if you do it outside or standing at a window – and we would acknowledge that there are Universal forces that are focused right at you.  We would acknowledge by calling it by name, if you have a name that you like.  And we would say, ‘I acknowledge that I am the object of  your positive attention, and I am appreciating your continual gaze on behalf of my Well-Being.  And today, no matter where I am, no matter where I’m going, no matter what I’m doing, and no matter who I’m doing it with, I will be in conscious awareness that you too are there with me, appreciating me, supporting me, assisting me, acknowledging me, inspiring me, guiding me, having fun with me, assisting me, helping me, experience.’”  AHicks

I love that quotation and the way it pulls you into a loop of appreciation and hopefulness about what you are creating.  What has also come to my attention from a variety of reliable sources, is that we can get very specific guidance from  non-physical energy, that is, we can receive guidance from those who are expert in the area in which we are looking for guidance.  Those who have made their transition are available to us if we can raise our vibration enough to get onto their wavelength.  If we paint, we can link up with a talented painter who can give us assistance in becoming a better painter.  If we write, we can link up with someone who has valuable input on our subject. Now this is really operating with all of our power.  We are a part of that stream of non-physical energy and it’s available to us at any time.  Many of our most beloved inventors and problem solvers have acknowledged their use of a group of non-physical counselors to inform their writing and inspiration.  Napoleon Hill, having written a classic book on being a deliberate creator before people were talking about the Law of Attraction, was helped immensely in creating “Think and Grow Rich.”  Thomas Edison has acknowledged the inspiration that came to him in creating his world-changing inventions.

So, you and I have the same access to this group of geniuses who can help us to be more inspired, make decisions more easily and be more effective creators of just what we want.  We can have our own Dream Team of counsellors by simply asking for their assistance.  And, they can be in multiple places at once, of course, as a part of Source Energy, so we needn’t feel like we’re being greedy by asking for their help.  In fact, they are only too glad to participate in the physical Universe in this way.     

I love the idea of having my own Dream Team and hope you’ll consider whether it might be something that could work for you.  It can be especially helpful right on the heels of meditation when you’re in such a receptive state that the guidance can come to you more easily.  I discuss this in more detail in “How to Allow,” in terms of meditating your way into inspiration.  In the meantime, think about forming your own Dream Team.  I’d love to hear how it works out for you.
