If you find your faith wavering, just put a dot in the center of a large circle and next to the dot write the name of your desire. As often as you like, look at your drawing of the dot in the circle, knowing your desire
is
the size of that dot for the force of love!

How to Change Something Negative

If there is something negative in your life and you want to change it, the process is the same: Give love by imagining and feeling that you have what you want. Remember that anything negative is a lack of love, and so you have to imagine the opposite of the negative situation, because its opposite
is
love! For example, if you have an illness that you want to be gone, give love for your body being healthy.

If you are using the Creation Process to change something negative, know that you do not have to turn the negative into a positive. That feels really hard to do and it is not how creation works. Creation means something
new
is created – which automatically replaces the old. You don’t need to think about what you want to change. All you have to do is give love for what you want, and the force of love will replace the negativity for you.

If a person is injured and receiving medical help, but things are not improving, it means they’re imagining and feeling the injury more than they’re imagining and feeling a full recovery. The way to tip the balance to recovery is to imagine and feel having a full recovery,
more
than not having it. The fact that you can imagine a full recovery means that it already exists! Impregnate your magnetic field with good feelings about anything and everything that makes you feel good. Ramp up your love in every area of your life. Feel good as much as you can, because every moment of giving love brings a full recovery.

“Your feelings are your god.”

Chanakya
(350-275 BC)
INDIAN POLITICIAN AND WRITER

Whether you want to change your health, money, relationships, or anything else, the process is the same! Imagine what you want. Imagine and feel the love of having it. Imagine every scene and situation you can with what you want, and feel that you have it now. Try spending seven minutes each day imagining and feeling having what you want. Do it each day until you feel as though you already have your desire. Do it until you know your desire belongs to you, as you know your name belongs to you. With some things you will get to this state after just one or two days. Other things may take you longer. Then simply get on with your life, giving as much love and as many good feelings as you can
because the more love you give, the faster you will receive what you desire
.

After you’ve imagined and felt having what you want, you’re literally in a new world with what you’ve imagined, so don’t contradict the new world by telling everyone about an injury that’s not improving, because then you are imagining the worst again, and you’re back in the old world. As you imagine the worst, that’s what you will receive back. As you imagine the best, that’s what you’ll receive back. If somebody asks how your injury is doing, you can say, “I am
feeling
one hundred percent again and my body is following.” You can say, “This has been a blessing because it has made me appreciate my body and health more than I ever have in my life.” Or if you are bold enough you can say, “I have a full recovery by the horns.”

You can’t talk about something you don’t want without feeling bad. It’s that simple, but people are so used to not feeling good a lot of the time, they don’t even notice how bad they feel when they’re imagining and talking about what they don’t want. When you become more aware of how you’re feeling, and you care more about your feelings, you will get to the point where the slightest dip in your good feelings will be unbearable for you. You will become so used to feeling good, you’ll be so aware of your feelings, that if they dip you will feel it and you’ll get yourself back to feeling good right away. You are supposed to feel good and be happy most of the time, because you are meant to have an amazing life, and there is no other way you can receive it!

“I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.”

Martha Washington
(1732-1802)
FIRST LADY, WIFE OF GEORGE WASHINGTON,
FIRST PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

How to Eliminate Bad Feelings

You can change anything in your life by changing how you feel. When you change how you feel about any subject, the subject must change! But in changing the way you feel, don’t try to get rid of bad feelings, because all bad feelings are simply a lack of love. Instead, you put love in! You don’t try to get rid of anger or sadness; anger and sadness are gone when you put love in. There is nothing to dig out of you. When you put love into you, all bad feelings are gone.

There is only one force in life and that force is love. You are either feeling good because you are full of love, or you are feeling bad because you are empty of love, but all your feelings are degrees of love.

Think of love as if it is water in a glass, and the glass is your body. When a glass has only a little water in it, it is empty of water. You can’t change the water level in the glass by waging war on the emptiness and trying to rip out the emptiness. The emptiness goes by filling the glass with water. When you have bad feelings, you are empty of love, and so when you put love into yourself, the bad feelings are gone.

Don’t Resist Bad Feelings

Everything has its perfect place in life, including bad feelings. Without bad feelings, you would never know what it feels like to feel good. You would just feel the one “blah” feeling all the time because you would have nothing to compare your feelings to. You wouldn’t know what it feels like to feel really happy, excited, or joyful. It’s through feeling sadness that you know how good it feels to be happy. You can never remove bad feelings from life because they are a part of life, and without them, you wouldn’t have good feelings!

If you feel bad about having bad feelings, you are adding more power to your bad feelings. Not only will your bad feelings get worse, but you will increase the negativity you’re giving out. Now you understand that bad feelings don’t bring the life you want, which will make you more mindful not to let bad feelings take over you. You are in charge of your feelings, and so if you have a bad feeling sweeping over you, one way to discharge its energy is to lighten up!

“There is a world within – a world of thought and feeling and power; of light and beauty, and although invisible, its forces are mighty.”
