The Different Degrees of Your Emotional Guidance Scale

You might say that different emotions have different vibrational frequencies, but a more accurate way of

saying it would be: Your emotions are indicators of your vibrational frequency. When you remember that

your emotions indicate your degree of alignment with Source Energy and that the better you feel, the

more you are allowing your alignment with the things you desire, then it is easier to understand how to

respond to your emotions.

Absolute alignment with your own Source Energy means that you know the following:

• You are free.

• You are powerful.

• You are good.

• You are love.

• You have value.

• You have purpose.

• All is well.

At any time that you are thinking thoughts that cause you to know your true nature, you are in alignment

with who you really are, for this is the state of absolute alignment. And the way those thoughts feel is the

ultimate emotion of connection. When you think in terms of a fuel gauge on a vehicle, this state of

alignment would be the same as a full tank.

In other words, imagine a gauge or scale with gradations or degrees, which indicate the position of the

(fullest) allowance of your connection with your Source Energy all the way to your (emptiest) most

resistant disallowance of your alignment with your Source Energy.

A scale of your emotions would look something like this:

1. Joy/Knowledge/Empowerment/Freedom/Love/Appreciation

2. Passion

3. Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness

4. Positive Expectation/Belief

5. Optimism

6. Hopefulness

7. Contentment

8. Boredom

9. Pessimism

10. Frustration/Irritation/Impatience

11. “Overwhelment”

12. Disappointment

13. Doubt

14. Worry

15. Blame

16. Discouragement

17. Anger

18. Revenge

19. Hatred/Rage

20. Jealousy

21. Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness

22. Fear/Grief/Depression/Despair/Powerlessness

Since the same words are often used to mean different things, and different words are often used to

mean the same things, these word labels for your emotions are not absolutely accurate for every person

who feels the emotion. In fact, giving word labels to the emotions could cause confusion and distract you

from the real purpose of your Emotional Guidance Scale.

The thing that matters most is that you consciously reach for a feeling that is improved. The word for the

feeling is not important.

An Example of Consciously Moving Up Your Emotional Guidance Scale

So, something has happened in your experience that makes you feel terrible. Nothing sounds good,

nothing feels good, it seems as it you are suffocating, and each thought is equally painful. The best word

to describe your nearly constant state of emotion is one of depression.

If you could throw yourself into taking some action, you might teel better; if you could put what is

bothering you out of your mind altogether and focus upon your work, you could feel better. There are

many thoughts that you could entertain that could free you from your depression. However, vibrationally,

you do not have access to most of them right now. But if your intention is to find a thought, any thought,

that feels better, and you are consciously aware of how that thought feels, you can begin to move up the

Emotional Guidance Scale immediately. It is really a process of thinking a thought, any thought, and then

consciously evaluating whether the new thought gives you any feeling of relief from where you were

before that thought. So, you think and feel and think and feel, with one intention only: to feel even the

slightest bit of relief.

Let us say that someone has said something that made you angry, or someone did not keep her word. And

as you focus upon this angry topic, you notice that you do feel some relief from your depression. In other

words, in the midst of this angry thought, you are no longer having any trouble breathing. The feeling of

claustrophobia has lifted, and you do feel slightly better.

Now, here is the crucial step in effectively utilizing your Emotional Guidance System: Stop, and

consciously acknowledge that your chosen thought of anger does feel better than the suffocating

depression that it replaced. And in the conscious recognition of your improved vibration, your feeling of

powerlessness softens and you are now on you way up your Emotional Guidance Scale, back into full

connection with who you really are.

Why Would Anyone Want to Discourage My Better-Feeling Anger?

Often, from a very resistant vibration such as depression or fear, you will have already, instinctively, even

unconsciously, discovered the pain-relieving thought of anger. But there are so many who have convinced

you that your anger is inappropriate—but of course, they are not inside of you, so they cannot feel the

improvement that the angry thought really is—that they often counsel you against your anger... only to

leave you back in your former state of depression. But when you consciously know that you have chosen

an angry thought and that it has brought you relief, then you can consciously know that you can move

from the angry thought to a less resistant one such as frustration, and then up the Emotional Guidance

Scale you go—right back into your full alignment.

Why Your Slightest Improvement Is of Such Great Value

When you are consciously aware of where you are, and you also know where you would like to be, and you

have a means of understanding whether or not you are pointed in the direction of where you want to be...

then nothing can keep you there. The seeming lack of control of your life experience is mostly because

you do not realize in which direction you are headed. Without a conscious realization of your own

emotions and what they mean, you often move away from where you really want to be.

There are many words that are used to describe emotions, but there are really only two emotions: One

feels good, and one feels bad. And every incremental place along the emotional scale only indicates

degrees of the allowance of the powerful, pure, positive Source Energy. The fullest state of connection,

which feels like joy, love, appreciation, freedom, or knowledge, is really speaking to your own feeling of

self-empowerment. And the fullest state of disconnection, which feels like despair, grief, fear, or

depression, is really speaking to your own feeling of disempowerment.

There is tremendous value when you are able to deliberately cause even the slightest improvement in the

way you feel, for even in that small emotional improvement, you may have regained a measure of

control. And even though you may not have fully exercised your control to bring yourself entirely back

into full connection with your full power, you no longer feel powerless. And so, you trek back up the

emotional scale is now not only possible, but it is relatively easy.

Only You Know If Choosing Anger Is Appropriate for You

If a severely depressed person could consciously discover the relief of an angry thought, and, more

important, could consciously recognize that he has deliberately chosen the angry thought, he would

immediately regain a sense of his own power, and his depression would lift. Now, of course, it is

important that he does not remain in his place of anger. But, from that angry place, he now has access to

the relieving thoughts of frustration.

There are many who do not yet understand the vibrational content of emotions (or even what an emotion

is or its reason for being) who counsel with great forcefulness against the projection of anger. For most

people do not enjoy being in the presence of someone who is angry, and most would selfishly prefer that

the angry person return to their former state of powerless depression, because their depression is usually

turned inward, while their anger is often thrust outward toward whoever is nearby.

Someone outside of you does not know if your chosen thought of anger is an improvement for you; only

you know—by the relief that you feel— the appropriateness of any thought. Until you decide that you are

going to guide yourself by the way you feel, you can make no steady progress toward your own desires.

“I’m Doing My Best to Make the Best of It”

Those who are watching you might feel better if they understood that you have no intention of remaining

in your state of anger. If they knew that your greater plan is to move through your anger, and then

through frustration through overwhelment to optimism to belief and onward to your knowing that all is

well, they might be more patient with where you are right now.

There are many people who just naturally move from the powerless feeling of depression or fear into

anger as a sort of self-surviving mechanism, but when they are met with so much disapproval from family

members, friends, and counselors with respect to the inap-propriateness of their anger, they return to

the feeling of power-lessness, only to repeat the cycle again and again: from depression to anger, to

depression to anger, to depression to anger...

The key to regaining your wonderful feeling of personal empowerment and control is to decide, right now,

no matter how good or how bad you are feeling, that you are going to do your best to make the best of it.

Reach for the best-feeling thought that you have access to right now, and as you do that again and again,

in a short period of time you will find yourself in a very good-feeling place. That is just the way it works!

“If I Can Get There Emotionally, I Can Get Anywhere”

“Right now I am going to find the best-feeling thought that I can. I am going to reach for more relief,

more relief, more relief.” Remember:

• Rage gives you a feeling of relief from depression, grief, despair, fear, guilt, or powerlessness.

• Revenge gives you a feeling of relief from rage.

• Anger gives you a feeling of relief from revenge.

• Blame gives you a feeling of relief from anger.

• Overwhelment gives you a feeling of relief from blame.

• Irritation gives you a feeling of relief from overwhelment.

• Pessimism gives you a feeling of relief from irritation.

• Hopefulness gives you a feeling of relief from pessimism.

• Optimism gives you a feeling of relief from hopefulness.

• Positive Expectation gives you a feeling of relief from optimism.

• Joy gives you a feeling of relief from positive expectation.

In time, and with practice, you will become very adept at understanding what your Emotional Guidance

System is telling you. Once you make a determined decision to continually reach for the relief that an

improved emotion brings, you will find yourself feeling good most of the time, and allowing into your

experience all the things you desire.

Attention to how you are feeling is necessary in order to understand everything that is happening to you.

How you feel—and the feeling of relief that you discover as you reach for better-feeling thoughts—is your

only true measurement of what you are attracting into your experience.

“But What about Those Who Desire Not to Desire?”

We would describe the sensation of desire as the delicious awareness of new possibilities. Desire is a

fresh, free feeling of anticipating wonderful expansion. The feeling of desire is truly the feeling of life

flowing through you. But many people, while they are using the word desire, feel something quite

different. Desire, for them, often feels like yearning, for while they are focused upon something that they

want to experience or have, they are equally aware of its absence. And so, while they are using words of

desire, they are offering a vibration of lack. They come to think that the feeling of desire is like wanting

something that they do not have. But there is no feeling of lack in pure desire.

So, if you will keep in mind that whenever you ask, it is always given—then each of your desires will now

be pure non-resisted desire.

Many people desire things that they are not currently living fully, and in some cases they have desired

them for a long period of time. And so, they think about the thing they desire, and then they think about

not having it. In time, they come to believe that the way they feel (as they think about what they want,

and realize they do not have it, but cannot figure out how to get it) is the way desire feels. But they are

not in the state of pure desire; they are in the state of resisted desire. Often their vibration is more about

the absence or lack of what they want than it is about what they want.

Without even realizing what they are doing, they are holding themselves vibrationally apart from their

own desires, so in time they come to believe that this sluggish, unfulfilled feeling of not getting what they

want is really what desire feels like.

There have been some who have said to us, “Abraham, I’ve been taught that it’s not appropriate for me

to have any desires. I’ve been taught that the state of desire will keep me from being the spiritual Being

that I’m supposed to be, and that my state of happiness depends upon my ability to release all desires.”

We reply, But is not your state of happiness, or your state of spirituality, a desire?

We are not here to guide you toward, or away from, any desire. It is our work to help you understand that

you are the creator of your own experience and that your desires will naturally be born from your

experience in this environment, in this body. It is our desire to assist you in coming into perfect alignment

with Source so that you can then achieve the creation of your desires.

We understand why some would suggest that if you would release your desire, you would feel better,

because the negative emotion that you are feeling is due to the vibrational difference between your

current vibration and the vibration of your desire. But releasing desire is the hard way to go about

bringing yourself into alignment, because the entire Universe is poised to help you give birth to yet

another new desire. So, a much easier way to come into alignment with your Source, and therefore to

feel better, is to work on releasing your resistance.

Does Your Desire Feel Like the Next Logical Step?

Your ability to imagine will help the next logical steps come to you faster. You can work the bugs out of it

in your imagination; you do not have to build little things and bigger things—you can do it all in your

mind. We are not talking about the next logical action step. We are talking about using your imagination

until your big dream feels so familiar that the manifestation is the next logical step.

For example, a mother and her adult daughter were contemplating purchasing a lovely house in a

beautiful area and creating a wonderful bed-and-breakfast facility. The daughter said to her mother, “If

only we could find a way to make this happen, it would make me happy for the rest of my life. If this

could happen, it would make up for all of those things that I wanted that didn’t come to pass.”

We explained that the vibration of her desire was not yet in the pure place that it needed to be in order

to allow this experience to manifest. When your desire feels so big that it feels unreachable, it is not on

the verge of manifestation. When your desire feels to you like it is the next logical step, then it is on the

verge of manifestation.

Once You Feel in Control, You Will Enjoy It All

You can tell by the way you feel whether your vibration is in the place where you are allowing Universal

Forces to deliver your desire to you now... or not. With practice, you will know whether you are on the

brink of a manifestation or whether it is still in the becoming stages, but most important, once you are in

control of the way you feel, you will enjoy it all:

• You will enjoy your exposure to the variety and contrast that helps you identify your desire, and you

will enjoy the sensation of your own desire, which is being launched from your own valuable perspective

and

is flowing from you.

• You will enjoy the sensation of your conscious awareness when you are not a vibrational match to your

own desire, and you will enjoy the sensation of deliberately bringing yourself back into vibrational

alignment with your desire.

• You will feel relief as doubts slip away, and as the secure feelings of Well-Being replace them.

• You will enjoy sensing things that are about to happen, you will enjoy seeing things beginning to fall

into place, and you will adore witnessing the manifestations of your desires.

• You will revel in the conscious awareness that you have deliberately molded your desires into being in

as real a way as if you had created a statue with the clay in your own hands.

• You will adore the sensations you feel as you align, again and again, with the fruits of your own

experience.

The entire Universe exists to produce new life-giving desire within you, and when you go with the flow of

your own desires, you will feel truly alive—and you will truly live.
