Good evening people!
I got to get this off my chest..
Since I first discovered Abraham more than 6 months ago, I feel like I have been given the rule book for "How Life Works & How To Be, Do And Have Anything You Want". I really feel like I know the big secret to all this, though it really isn't a secret.
As I said to a good friend of mine the other day, the teachings of Abraham represent the most reliable, consistent, verifiable, logical, real and importantly, current teachings/explanations of the spiritural nature, to me, out of all the spiritual teachings I currently have met or been introduced to. Phew!
I know fully in my heart and head that what "they" say is true, that "they" are true.
Can you feel the but coming?... ha!
Thing is, with this complete knowing and belief in these teachings, I have of course been utilising these teachings in all the aspects of my life. Ever since I first read "ask and it is given" I have been really excited about applying the teachings in my life AND I HAVE BEEN doing so.
Now, although I will only get better at applying the teachings in my life, I really want to know why in the last 6 or more months of doing this, knowing the rules of how life works (so to speak) - WHY I have not seemingly yeilded any improvements in my life.
I don't say this as in "It's not Fair!" - I genuinely believe fully the teachings, and although I would not say my application of them has been flawless, I would had thought by now I could relate some change in my life experience for it.
For example, the latest thing I have to play with is finding rent money by April 1st. I had a fun way to deal with this and enjoyed putting the pieces together for it to come my way, but it crashed big style. I don't really want to go in the details because I could get upset by it 
So I have a couple of days to allow rent money and right now on my "money radar" I see no evidence. I followed my inspired actions to align something to allow it in my business, it was really exciting doing it all - but it crashed.
I guess I feel that having the rule book and applying it would mean I would enjoy the fruits? If those of you who allow mega volumes of money into your lifes through the application of Abraham teachings could share the joys of your well-being I would love to read about it. I feel like I might be cursed lol
I would love to have a one-on-"them" with Abraham to ask about this. I love hearing how others here can contact their inner being, I could enjoy discovering this ability real soon!
So there you have it. I will stop rambling now.. promise!
Thanks and happiness and joy to all.

From what I have believe and have read from Abraham that really stood out for me in Ask and its given is that you HAVE to pick things that you believe you can really get. Ive been doing this lately..making sure that im in touch with what I really want and Abe says that if it feels too big then its not ready yet, if it feels natural and the next logical step, then its close to manifesting. So maybe you need to reexamine what you want, and ask yourself truthfully if you believe you can fully get it. If thats not it, and your sure your fine on it, then remember allowing and aligning. From what ive heard from Abe and his followers, are that you have to love life, and find things to feel ecstatic about seperate from your dream in your real life, and then thats allowing.
I just read last night, from Abe that if your thinking about you want and you feel pleasure from the thought, you are in alignment with your dream. If you think about it, and feel fear, despair, hopelessness, then your not in alignment. You probably already know all this and im rambling on for nothing..sorry!

Hi Jen,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the reminders.
It's good to be reminded actually. The small itsy tiny stuff I want to allow is small itsy (is that a word?!) and tiny I am not asking for the castle (yet!).
It's great because I love to chew over the really small stuff I am wanting, because I really REALLY get that it is so small and insignificant to the Universe, really in the grand scheme of things, this is no big jump for me.
I love what I do in my "work". I love the service I provide for people. I know more people would love it too if they knew more about it. This is one of the ways I am aligning to allow money through, and one of the ways which has not improved since my understanding of it all and applying the teachings.
I really love this stuff. I don't wanna say it... I REALLY don't want to say it BUT I can feel it bubbling so very strong right now so... "WHERE'S MY STUFF?!!!" :D
Ha ha ha ha ha..
Man, I wind my Wife up sometimes because I really don't get upset that much about anything. I don't tend to do any real whinging about stuff that people like to whinge about... I am captain carm and always looking for a laugh and joke about everything..
Cheers.

Hi lettinggo,
Like you, I came across Abe-Hicks a few months ago, and knew instantly that this was the answer to a better life. Their teachings were verifiable and logical, as you've rightly said. Like you, I also applied their teachings enthusiastically and with true faith. I scripted, focused, visualised, meditated (still do!), but the one thing I wanted the most (My ex to resume our relationship) faded further and further into the distance. Even though I manifested some really promising stuff, our relationship never took off again in the way I wanted.
Why am I telling you this? Because I feel your 'pain'...for want of a better way to express myself. I empathise with what you're feeling. I asked the same questions. I was told by wise folk on here that what I wanted was not my ex, but a relationship in itself. I was advised to appreciate the wonderful feeling of being in a relaionship, without the face or name of my ex.
I've taken that advice, and I've felt wonderful since. I've read my journal of when we loved each other, and instead of feeling blue, I feel uplifted. I've basically dropped the oars and I'm letting my boat drift downstream. And that is the only advice I can give you. Let go. Drop the oars. Let the Universe do the work. In so doing, you'll release whatever resistance you're offering (you might think you're not, but I'd say just do it anyway), and things will flow easily into your experience. You already believe, and your convictions are strong. So you're doing great. Just trust the Universe and love yourself, and you'll be fine.
I'm sorry I can't offer any wise words or better suggestions, except that other more experienced posters will surely post on your thread with better posts.
Take care
Foxgloves

Hey Foxgloves,
Thanks for popping in and sharing your wisdom.
I have been drifting for a few months now - in the sense of going with the flow and not trying to do anything in particular, feeling good and being playful and generally enjoying myself.
As much as I drifted, going with the flow, I still have yet to discover the juicy good stuff. I've done a good 3-4 months of drifting now, and I am drifting towards no rent payment and all the "nasty" stuff that comes with that. Who knows, perhaps I will come right to that point of "not paying rent" and suddenly pay it through some cool manifestation. I would love that. I would joyfully raise a fist to the "above" and say "Ooohh you! You had to make me squirm didn't you!".. erm.. anyway!
Thanks for giving me an excuse to type more.
I welcome more thoughts and wisdom from all who align with my ramble ;)

I am saying this for myself as well-
Abraham always says if its an "I want it so bad it hurts"- then its going to be awhile.
It sounds like maybe you need to find more balance with the allowing part and then the asking will take place naturally. Does this feel true?

Gather 'round folks, and be enlightened
This is a typical castles and buttons issue......
We can often manifest the little things because we have experience in manifesting these things.
Manifesting castles is done by appreciating those little manifestations that relate to the big thing you are wanting. They are the building blocks from which your castle is built.
You see, by appreciating we are in alignment with what we are desiring. So if we are appreciating the building blocks that are going toward our castle, more building blocks will appear. It has to be that way.
There are a number of things that can interrupt our creating of our castle.
1. Not recognising what building blocks we have already in our experience in relation to our castle.
2. Belief systems that inhibit the development of the construction.
3. Resistant thought about the projects completion.
I think money, or the lack of it must be one of the most popular topics on this and many other forums around the planet.
Let's apply the above to MONEY.
1. What can you recognise in your reality that you appreciate in regard to money and all aspects of it in your experience?(start writing those things down if you like)
2.You really must be open and true to yourself about the next question..........
What is your vibrational set point in regard to Money and all aspects of it?
in other words how do you feel about money and all aspects of it? be honest and do some real soul searching on this one. It is SO important to establish this truth for you.
3. The answer to question two will expose more clearly the answer to question three.When you can recognise resistance, it will run from you like the coward that it is(sorry, I couldn't help being creative)
When you can recognise what ingredients are needed to build your castle it will be so much easier and less stressful to achieve.
The bigger the castle the more materials required.
Those materials are found in your experience and that includes past,present and future.
It is your imagination and you get to choose what you want in your pie. Appreciation is your cornerstone and clear intention and definiteness of purpose is your powerhouse(we draw in energy when we are passionate about our desires) and most useful of all is our magnificent Imagination, the eternal distribution centre of our universe.
Have fun
You will get your stuff if you allow yourself toward it. Determine and be definite about the kind of abundance you really want in your experience. Segment intend your way to your castles. Always be true to yourself in regard to your vibrational resonance(how you really feel about a subject)that is where the EGS really comes in handy.
Cheers
Simon

Hi Melina,
That is so true, thanks. Thing is, I only want it bad because it is bad not having it.. darn, I know how that sounds OK! ;)
I think I will take a back seat on life for a bit, I guess I may just be giving all of this too much attention.

Hi Simon,
I am happy to see you reply here - I read through the forum now and then, and I particulary enjoy your posts. You look to have a sound grasp of this stuff, and a "lucky" soul who can tap into source at will. Can I ask if your manifestations/results match your theory and application on this? I hope that does not sound like a rude question.
I love reading when an individual understands the process, applies the process and reaps from the process. I see you as one who does, but not 100% sure about the last part (you are not a bragger as far as I can see!).
Anyway, thanks for your post. It looks like information that I know well and have applied countless times, except I obviously don't know it that well because I am not receiving from the process what I put in (or at least feel/think I am putting in).
I still love life though - mostly ;)

You're focusing on "it's not here yet," which tells the Universe not to deliver yet. Common newbie problem -- one that we all made.
Ignore the things that haven't changed... ask the Universe to give you evidence of all the things that have changed and are changing.
As Abe says: Disappointment is simply taking score too soon.

Aye, ain't it so. Then several months fly by of not taking stock and... I'm right where I was. I feel like I am in a perfectly round boat with one oar.
I am sure I will "break free" of this issue sooner or later (at croak time for sure!) so I WILL have my result, hook or by croak ;)

Hi lettingo
Yes, this stuff works 100% for me. The fact that I can spend time doing whatever I choose to these days is evidence that these principals work for me in my experience. Not only does it work but the experience is fun. I will jump for joy when your reality reflects that knowledge.
The great part of all of it is that it doesn't matter if I go off my own rails(so to speak) for I know that when I collect my thoughts I can always start from here.
We are where we are and it is OK.
I think the answer to anyone that is observing lack in their experience is to......... STOP FOCUSING ON IT!
Creating castles is why we are here. Well it sure beats being kicked along by someone else's intentions.
Focusing on what is wanted is the most important thing we can do for that is where the energy is strongest.
If you are looking at your situation and seeing lack of, you are being handed an emotional indicator on a platter. By paying attention to the way you feel and choose thoughts that make you feel better puts you back in control of your reality.
I really don't know what else to contribute here.
This rent thing is only a part of your overall feeling about money, That feeling is the catalyst that is holding you from the next connection to where your IB is already standing vibrationally, waiting for you to catch up.
Deadlines exist in this reality only. Why put yourself under pressure of a deadline(rent needs to be paid by) when your vibrational set point is not mature enough (looking for a better word) to cope with that deadline. It will only yield disappointment. I know this from my own experience in this kinda thing. Find a way you know works that will pay the rent and be happy about it. Appreciate it!
Hope this helps.

Hey, my next screen name will be "holdingon"
Thanks for answering my question.
You know, your last paragraph smacked me right between the eyes. I wonder what that means... but yes, if my set point IS below where it is needed to allow rent in the manner I currently do, I could seek another way... actually I am open to this and I have asked the Universe to light the path for me in a really big obvious way (I like to be told real loud) but it seems to be engaged at the moment!
But I don't know what I could do that I would genuinely appreciate. But thats another thing altogether.. ignore this sentence. ;)
I will say this - I really appreciate and enjoy what I currently do, so I am thinking now it would be a shame to change to something that I would enjoy and appreciate less - but...
...ah I think I will withdraw now for some sleep!
Thanks for the chat. You are all wonderful beings. I look forward to awaking perfectly to greet another lovely day. o/

It is a funny thing Nattydread
When I write stuff on this forum, it may seem as though I am a know all but I am just writing what I know.
Does that make sense?
I am really a nice person underneath my 'Mr Smartypants' 'Simon Says' exterior.
I am just playing the game.
