This is how you get stuck.

All thought is creative, and each new thought that you have launches a new creation in your life. When you start to think of the reasons you can't have something, that also goes forth as creation and counteracts the previous thought of creating what you want. This is how you get stuck.

Universal energy only responds to focus.

Remember, the Universe does not understand the difference between want and don't want; Universal energy only responds to focus and the energy that your feelings add to that focus. From this perspective, worry becomes a process of creating more of what you don't want.

What lessens your ability to attract what you want?

What lessens your ability to attract any great quantity of what you want in your life?

When you resist or disallow what you do not like—if you resist, fear, guard against that which you fear, disapprove of, or simply do not want, you shut down the flow of Life Force Energy coming to you and that in turn lessens your ability to attract any great quantity of what you want in your life.

What creates karma or effect?

The only difference between hell, and the majority view that the sins of the past are brought into balance, or are paid for in the present or in a future life, is the geography! 

God did not invent karma.

Karma is, in its essence, the law of attraction. 

Energy follows thought and actions follow thought. 

You would not act unless there were thoughts and beliefs that had led you to that action.

It is not the action that creates the karma―

It is the thought or belief behind the action that creates the karma or effect.

Each action has a motivating thought or belief, and beliefs are simply thoughts that have been thought over and over again until they become firmly rooted in the psyche. 

Therefore, the karma resulting from some action of yours is simply the operation of the law of attraction. 

It proves itself to you time and time again because this law responds to the beliefs that motivated the original action.

What sets up future circumstances?

The Law of Attraction creates your life circumstances; your thinking activates this law. It is not your action that creates worlds; it is your thinking. Thought is the mother of creation; action is the implementation of that creation—nothing more, nothing less. As you think loving thoughts, you feel loving, you act in loving ways. It is your beliefs and thoughts that motivate your action—that set up future circumstances, not the act in itself.

As soon as you stop thinking the thoughts that are attracting the circumstances, the circumstances will stop being created.

The moment you start thinking other thoughts, new circumstances will be drawn to you.

It is the beliefs that you hold true now that are important and which give you an opportunity to recreate yourself with a different set of beliefs.

As you shift your focus, you shift your vibration, and as you shift your focus away from what you have been doing towards something new, you being to align with that new thing.

You are non-physical in nature and the physical you is an extension of that non-physical being.

You are the creator of your own reality.

You are the creator of your own reality; it is not something you find; it is something you create and draw to you through your desire for it. Not only do you learn and grow, but also you create the learning process and choose how to learn and create the growth. You create your own reality. Nothing more, and nothing less.

What is the nature of our Universe?

What is the nature of the Universe in which we live? 

The Universe is a vast and complex place, with many levels, many worlds, and many realities. 

The Universe is a place of vibration, of energy. As you shift your focus, you shift your vibration, and as you shift your focus away from what you have been doing towards something new, you being to align with that new thing. 

It is consciousness—thought—that creates circumstance, that creates worlds and destroys them. Choose to shift your focus freely and with ease, and free and easy it will be. It is as simple as that. Your mind, the you that exists in your head so to speak, moulds universal energy with thought to create a world in which you can live. Our world exists within the mind of God, within your mind. It is as real as you want to be. Envision joyful expansion into a new consciousness, and it will be yours. If you focus on disaster, the Universe will deliver that to you as gladly as it will deliver peace and prosperity to you. It cannot be any other way, for that is the nature of the Universe in which you live. The Universe always delivers unto you that which you focus on.

Are there any other rules that apply in the Universe?

The Law of Love and the Law of Attraction are the primary laws that govern all worlds, physical and non-physical.

There are also four universal principles of creation that express the very nature of God and of who you are—

Love

Health and well-being

Abundance

Creativity.

Universal laws do not govern you, for there is no external consciousness that has decided that you must adhere to such laws. Rather the laws in themselves describe the nature of the Universe, the nature of things.

The primary law is the Law of Love; all things that exist rest on this law. Love is the complete and total acceptance of what is; of allowing.

We would define love as the complete and total acceptance of what is.

The Universe is one vast consciousness that has subdivided itself into smaller units and further into even smaller units. This subdivision has been for the purpose of the creation of experience, for it is through experience that the whole begins to experience itself.

You cannot know who you are unless you can view yourself from outside of yourself.

You learn who you are through experiencing yourself as All That Is whilst holding onto the experience of being singular. For the Universe to grow through experience, allowing or love must be in place, for there cannot be any limitation to the experience. For you to experience what you are, it is also necessary for you to experience what you are not. This comparison pushes you forward, for comparison is one of the most efficient ways to assist you in deciding what you want. This comparison leads to desire, and desire is the mother of creation, for, without desire, nothing would come into existence.

Free will is the natural result of love.

Everything works according to the Law of Attraction.

The Law of Attraction is all-pervading, and you will attract to yourself the object of your attention. If you seek that which uplifts you, educates you for a higher path, assists you to know more about yourself, it will come. If you seek that which uplifts and inspires you, it will come. If you seek that which helps you understand who you truly are, it will come. If you seek that which helps you understand the Universe and how its laws work, that too will come to you. Everything works according to the Law of Attraction; that which you think of will be drawn unto you.

True power comes from within and does not seek to dominate or control any other being. False power, the power that is based on feelings of lack, always involves manipulation and contains a sense of power over, even if this is subtle.

Assume that the transition into the New World will be challenging and full of disaster, and this too will be yours.

 What are the Four Keys to Happiness?

OMNI encourages us to begin the daily conscious practice of these tools. Each tool has equal importance; no one tool is more important than the other. Meditate upon them, write things down. Remember, when you write things down, you bring into form a thought or an idea. This is the first step in manifesting the subject of your attention, making it real for you.

Self-appreciation enhances your ability to create through the acknowledgement of your gifts.

Allowing is the key to living a life full of love.

Gratitude makes you magnetic to abundance. What you focus on, increases.

Forgiveness leads to health and well-being. If you are unwell, there is always something to forgive. Forgiveness is remembering the truth of who you are.
