I Can Always Enter My Vibrational Vortex of Creation…

The key to getting inside your Vibrational Vortex of Creation; of experiencing the absolute absence of resistance; of achieving complete alignment with all that you have become and all that you desire, and of bringing to your physical experience everything that you desire — is being in the state of appreciation — and there is no more important object of attention to which you must flow your appreciation than that of self.

Why do we hate ourselves so much?  Generically speaking.  Why do we discount our own abilities, our own self-worth?  We’re often eager to support or promote others, but rarely feel comfortable banging our OWN drum.

In many cultures, if not all, appreciation of self is confused with braggadocio or self-centeredness (in its negative connotation).  Consequently, it is not encouraged, and often DIScouraged and even punished.  So, it’s not surprising that so many of us don’t like to go there.  The problem is that the associations I just mentioned are invalid.

Feeling good about who you are as a person does not necessarily translate to feeling that you are better than others.  It doesn’t mean that you will be using others as stepping stones to your own success.  It doesn’t mean you’re going to be trumpeting your fabulousness to the world.  In fact, it’s more likely to mean that you will be a kinder, more understanding person in regard to others, because you won’t feel the need to receive other people’s recognition.  You will be perfectly happy, from within.

Happiness…  Hmmm…  Isn’t that a good-feeling emotion?  And aren’t good-feeling emotions what Abraham says we are supposed to be reaching for?  Aren’t they the signposts of our navigational system that tell us we’re going in the right direction?  Guess we know what we need to work on, eh?

… You know, I’m not such a bad guy…
