Attractive Attraction

The words you speak sow seeds in the minds of those who hear. The formed word is like the shell of the seed. It hides the potential for manifestation in its tiny, unassuming exterior. The word can fool us with its humble appearance. It passes swiftly in conversation: just a couple of syllables, spoken and then gone. And yet, like the seed in the earth, the word may have vanished from view, but there, under the surface, it enters a transformational process. With just a few favorable conditions, that camouflaged fleck takes root.

The shell of the word (its spelling, sound and language) cracks open in the fertile
ground of consciousness. Out pours its vibrational essence.

Three Kinds of Words.

You can find countless more complex classifications of words
than this one. This little system has nothing to do with grammar or parts of speech. It
simply sorts all your words into three piles of seeds.

Flowers.

Flower words beautify your experience. When you speak them they brighten
those who hear. They highlight what is wanted in a way that makes good things
palpable and present. When you speak flower words, these seeds sprout into beneficial
experiences in the lives of those who are listening.

Fruits.

Fruit words nourish. In times of tragedy, fruit words offer ease and comfort. In
times of challenge, these words bring encouragement. In times of inspiration, they
burst with colorful, nutritious enthusiasm. Fruit words fill a gap with just what is
needed. They carry the recipient forward. Fruit words work miracles.

Weeds.

Weed words perpetuate habits. Some of them can even look pretty and serve a
function, but if you sow too many weeds they tend to squeeze out the flowers and
fruits. Weed words are the ones spoken with no clear intention. They fill whatever
space they can and they offer no harvest. Weed words dampen your sense of aliveness.

Two Kinds of Soil.

Words float from your lips and they land in two places at once. They
land in others who hear your words. They also land in you.

Others.

Once your words have been spoken and heard, the seed’s shell begins to
dissolve very quickly. The vibrational essence reverberates in the recipient and mingles
with their experiences and associations. A whole new creation takes form.

You.

When you hear your own words, they re-impregnate your field of consciousness
with the essence of the meaning you intended when you spoke them.
If they were flower words, your life would become happier because you spoke them. If they were fruit words, you would feel more satisfied and stabilized in their wake. Many
times in the day we tend to speak weed words. In that case, you maintain your state
just the way it has been. No great benefit or detriment comes of it. If you begin tipping the scales toward more and more weed words, you’ll start to feel
the undesirable outcome of your sowing. On the other hand, if you get even a little bit
more intentional with your flowers and fruits and cut down on your weed words, the
difference in your manifestation will be remarkable.

No Dictionaries.

It’s easy to tell which words are which. You can tell by the way you feel
as the words are coming out of your mouth what kind of seeds you are speaking. You
don’t have to look up a word in the dictionary to see if it is a flower or a weed. It won’t
even work to make a list of fruit words and decide to speak only those. Since the
spoken or written word only shows you the outer shell of the seed, you must look inside
yourself at every utterance to know what kind of seeds you are tossing to the wind.

The very same word, when spoken in different situations, may germinate with
completely different results.

Instant Harvest. Although words can instigate creation of tremendous duration, there is
a moment of instant harvest as the words are spoken. You can feel the immediate
sprouting even before you finish your sentence. At that moment, if you recognize a
weed taking form, you can shift your conversations and produce a flower before you
even pause for your next breath.

Joyous Harvest.

Paying attention to the seeds you are sowing with your words has
nothing to do with word selection. Let your words flow. In order to harvest a joyful
satisfying life, follow these three simple instructions and let the words choose
themselves:

ONE. On the day-to-day path of your consciousness, let your attention be drawn to
things you love. The more you allow this natural movement, the more you will be
inspired to utter flower words.

TWO. In your interactions with others, see everyone you encounter as an expression of
divine life force in a unique configuration. The more you look into the essence of others,
the more you will be inspired to utter fruit words.

THREE. Assign brief periods, maybe five or ten minutes, when you pause before
speaking. In these segments, check your intention before the words take on sound. In
these brief, private training sessions, you will invite greater expression of flowers and
fruits and you will begin to naturally diminish the weed population in your conversation.

You can inspire others to greatness. You can open your access to ever expanding joy. Make your sowing of words more intentional and your life will overflow with a continuous harvest of fulfillment.

They are sort of like the bones in your body. You can’t see them and yet they give you your shape and they determine how you move. If they change, everything changes. You can imagine them like the wood frame of a house.
Concealed behind the walls, it gives the dwelling its form and character. To change the house, to build an extension or to dormer the roof, the frame must be altered.

I’m talking about your beliefs. Not the ones you can easily
name, like believing in a religion or in a political cause. It’s the invisible ones. The ones
that give your personality its shape. The ones that determine where you stand and how
you move. Those are the unseen structures that exert more influence in your life than
just about anything else.

In the same way that the shape of the bones of your arm let your elbow bend one way
and not the other, the invisible assumptions that you hold let your consciousness move
in one way and not another. Ultimately, it means your life unfolds in that way. Like an
elbow, it can’t go the other way.

Poof

When they are old, habitual and unconscious, these beliefs are not so different from the
two-by-fours in your walls. Your frame-like thought-forms build your reality its theatre.

They give your reality the semblance of being hard and fixed. The architecture doesn’t
budge. Reality seems solid.

But unlike their earthy, wooden cousins the two-by-fours, these structural beliefs can
change, dissolve and completely transform in the blink of an eye. Then, poof, the whole
house changes form. In the case of the body, it suddenly becomes flexible where it had
been stiff and cramped. The structure of the mind, having changed shape, changes the
shape of your life.

You can’t see them
I was struggling with a computer problem. I spent four hours creating and deleting and
creating and deleting folders and not only did I not fix the problem, I created a much
bigger one.

I decided to get myself out of the hole I was digging and to spend some time tending to
my vibration. I looked at the bigger picture. I invited my native enthusiasm about the
project. I re-ignited the calling of my heart that led me to this journey in the first place.
With my passion reawakened, I was able to realize that this was just a little technical
snag. No big deal. I got myself very, very happy about my project and about
everything that was going magnificently well. I stoked my faith that it would all work
out. Even though nothing had changed on my screen, I was feeling pretty good.

The next day, I received an email from tech support suggesting that I double-check my
folders. The technician explained that the program would not work if all the folders
were in another folder.

The funny thing was that I was working under the assumption that they had to be in
that other folder in order to work.

This was an invisible assumption. It never even occurred to me to ask about this
because I didn’t think it was in question.

It was causing my whole project to fail. And it all boiled down to an invisible
assumption.

This was just a little technical snafu. What about the bigger issues in life? What about
anxiety and depression? What about our addictions and our struggles?
Seeing Through
All these difficult states of consciousness are built on beliefs. The kind you don’t even
know you have. Within the emotional walls of anxiety you’ll find the two-by-fours of a
belief in disempowerment. They are hidden within the structure of depression. They
give rage its shape.
How do you renovate your beliefs? How do you change the shape and functionality of
your life? It requires looking through the situation rather than at it. For as long as you
may look at your elbow, you don’t see the articulation of the bones. All you know is
which way it bends.

In order to look through the situation you must stop thinking the situation is fixed and
real and final. You look through it when you pay attention to how you feel. Abraham*
tells us that our emotions are our guidance system. They are also your x-ray machine.
They tell you what is going on under the skin of the situation. They tell you the shape
of the underlying bones. They reveal the structure behind the walls.

Under Construction

Here’s a quick little exercise you can do to start moving walls and adding extensions to
your reality.

1. First find something you love about your reality just the way it is. Find a space of
appreciation from which to launch your project.

2. As you think about the unwanted situation in your life, notice how it feels to you.

3. Understand this feeling as a structure.

4. Imagine yourself changing the structure. Make it a space that feels wonderful and
just right for you. Shift the frame. Move the walls. Add doors and windows if you like.

Do anything that feels a little bit better to you. Do it quickly and easily. Don’t think
about it too much. You can’t do this wrong.

When you revisit this previously difficult area of your life, you may feel more open to
new possibilities than you have ever been. You may be surprised at your frequent
discovery of solutions that were “staring you in the face” the whole time. And your
joints may suddenly become more limber, too.

All structures in your life benefit from even a few moments of tending to the structure
of your invisible assumptions. And the best part of it is that you don’t have to know
what these assumptions are. All you have to know is how you want to feel in your new
dwelling.

When I was in chiropractic school, I had a teacher who liked to
impress one point on our fertile, young minds. He repeated it over
and over and reminded us of this fact every time the subject matter
allowed.

The point was this: Muscles don’t push. They can’t.

Physical Muscle Only Pulls. Muscles can only pull. All a muscle can
actively do is shorten. That’s how all the intricate motions of ballet and kung fu and
mountain climbing are done: by muscles getting shorter and moving the bones they are
partnered with. They can only pull. They can’t push.

Universal Muscle Only Attracts. Some years later I found myself at an Abraham*
workshop. It was in Abraham’s message that I realized that our muscles, even the
tiniest human muscle, hardly more than a millimeter long, all these muscles, large and
small, carry in their function and morphology a huge universal principle.

Our human
anatomy reflects a lesson that, when learned, can change your life.
Abraham teaches us that there is no such thing as exclusion, only inclusion. That
means the muscle of the Universe can only pull things toward you. It can’t push things
away from you. Every time you try to push something away from you, you simply draw
it to you by your attention to it.

Although Abraham doesn’t talk about muscle, they teach us well about Law of
Attraction. And Law of Attraction acts as the muscle of the universe. It moves things.

And it moves things toward each other. Not just anything. It moves things of a like
vibration toward each other. If you could get a cosmic view of the swirling movement,
it might appear that some things are moving away from each other, but that’s because
they are moving toward something else.

The universe does not push. And so it makes perfect sense that our muscles don’t push
either. We match universal law and our genius bodies illustrate the principle brilliantly.

No pushing here.

“Pushing” Logic. Of course, you can push a baby stroller. Doors are labeled “pull” and
“push” and we have no trouble doing either. You can even push a car if you have to.

But pushing is an illusion. It results from a specific combination of pulls. No one muscle
can push the door open.

We are often tempted to push against the things we don’t want. We think that if we
fight against something, it will go away. And sometimes it seems very logical that if we
push hard enough against something that it will go away.

That’s why even some of us who are long-time Abraham students can still find
ourselves ignoring what we’ve been taught about Law of Attraction. We can still find
ourselves pushing against the things we don’t want. And once we get pushing, we push
harder and harder.

When we look at our own anatomy and see this beautiful no-push principle reflected in
our muscles, it brings it home. You can only pull. And yet, by cooking up a recipe of a
variety of pulls, you either bring things toward you or you create the effect of things
moving away from you.

But in a universe of attraction and in a body of muscle, the only way to have things
move away from you is by bringing something else toward you.

How Things Move Away From You. Let’s break this down into two groups.

1. First, there are the things you don’t want in your life. These are the things you are
trying to push away.

These undesirables may include your friend’s irritating attitude, your pile of unpaid bills,
the aches and pains in your body or anything else that you don’t want in your
experience. Your logic may be telling you that by “pushing” against it, it will go away.

Law of Attraction is telling you that by giving your attention to it, you are drawing it
and more things like it, to you.

Here you have the feeling that you are moving things away from you, but by Law of
Attraction, you are really bringing them closer.

2. And then, there are the things you do want in your life. You want these to move
toward you and yet, they may seem to be moving away from you.

These desirables include all the wonderful people, things and situations you want to
draw into your experience. But you may have noticed that some of them are not in
your experience. You may even have your thoughts focused in such a way that you feel
fear, worry, frustration or some other kind of upset about the things you desire because
they are not in your experience.

This creates the effect of the things you want moving away from you. But that’s not
really what is happening. Remember, the muscle of the universe only attracts.

Big Muscle, Little Muscle. You can use this hidden relationship between Law of
Attraction and your very own muscle to create your life in a way that brings you more
joy.

First, remember that Law of Attraction is bringing to you things that match how you
vibrate. To expand your understanding of yourself as a vibrational being and to deepen
your awareness of Law of Attraction, you can refer to the teachings of Abraham.*

Second, remember that your muscles can actively only pull things toward you. Now
let’s put this all together and make it work for you.

How to Use Your Muscles.

Here’s the trick that will shift how you’re attracting. Spend
more time engaging your muscles with things you want to bring toward you than with
things you want to push away from you.

How simple!

Let’s apply this to both examples.

1. If there is something that you do not want, do not engage your muscles with that
thing. Do not use your leg muscles to walk toward it. Do not use your face and head
muscles to face it, look at it and talk about it. Do not use your arm and hand muscles
to reach out to touch it. Find something you want in your experience and engage your
muscles with that.

2. If there is something you want but it isn’t yet part of your experience, use your leg
muscles to take you to places where you can get the feeling of the thing you desire.

Use your face muscles to talk about how good you will feel when this thing you want
arrives.

Use every muscle you can to prepare yourself to receive the thing you desire when it
comes to you. Now you have lined up your personal muscle with the muscle of the
universe and you have a mighty partner.

This simple physical practice can shift your manifestation exponentially.
