Evening ritual:

Quote for the night:
Setting goals.
As weíve watched so many people who are really practicing deliberate creation what we notice is:
when they really get tenacious and start hitting things really head on they, almost without
exception, begin falling into the category of ëtrying too hard.í So as you are thinking in
terms of goals, thatís more like step one and thereís not anything wrong with it. But, we would put
more emphasis on step three. And so, what youíre wanting to do is deliberately look for
things that allow the well-being. And we think it is a more productive utilization of your time,
than setting goals or focusing on goals ALTHOUGH - focusing on things that you want, and
watching your progress toward them is a very satisfying experience.

So what are we saying here? It sounds like we are saying focus - donít focus. It sounds like we are
saying set goals - but donít set goals, instead allow. It sounds like Abraham is all over the place.
And what weíre saying to you is.. feel your way through it. Set a goal and as long as it feels good,
focus on the goal. But if you start noticing youíre worried about the goal then donít think about
the goal. Think about something else and trust that the goal has already been established, the
universal forces are working on it, and you work to get yourself into the receiving mode.

Physical humans are so accustomed to paying a price for your receiving, that itís hard for you to
hear, that for the most part, paying a price is what puts it off longer. Because in your struggle,
youíre not in the receiving mode, you see.

So. Would we set goals? Yes, we would. Would we talk about them a lot after weíve set them? No.
We would sort of release them to the universe. Direct your thought and let it be. You get to choose.
But you have a staff... an endless staff.. other humans, others who are willing to assist you. But
youíve gotta be in the place of letting it in.
