Instead of thinking OF what you want, think FROM it
All,
I found a wonderful site called Reality Creation by Frederick Dodson, referenced below .
The title of the thread is from one of the articles on this site. No sooner had I read the title, something told me I had to share it...
It was a shock to realize that the difference between thinking OF what I want, and thinking FROM what I want is like the difference between looking AT a postcard of someone's vacation...and being AT the location itself!
You'll see what I mean when you read through it.
The site is chock full of extremely helpful articles that are just as insightful as the one I used to entitle this thread ( like The Retro Reality-Creation Experiment).
Hope this, and the reference to the site, below, helps....
Enjoy: http://www.realitycreation.org/think...-you-want.html

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

I actually printed this out so I can reread it once in a while.
Glad you acted on the nudge to share! :)

Grace222,
Me too!
I have come to realize that acting on nudges (such as your own nudge to print the article out for yourself) is the Universe's way of helping us get to the places we tell ourselves we want to go....
Funny how that works out!

Words are wondrous! My first thought was to determine the definition of a "want" and then consider that a want is not the same as a need and I have everything I need...
Changing Of to From is clever indeed.
Interesting $ite
