"There's nothing for you to do. Universal forces are in motion. Things are unfolding. Your work is to relax and allow. To relax and allow. No matter what! No matter what. There's nothing more important than to relax and allow. Nothing. Not one thing, ever." Abraham Hicks

    I wish Abraham wouldn't shout so much.

      Letting go and relaxing is only part of the process. Just imagine telling the above to your children. I bet they would never want to go to school again. Unfortunately, it is not that easy.

        So we are used (made) to think. But school, at least the ordinary free public school, is rather meant to make people into the slaves our current bank-slavery society needs, not making them happy or independent who could live his/her life without the chains of loans.

        Henry Ford had two or three years of schooling, Edison not even that. And that goes not only for those times! Forbes has a list of rich people with no high school diploma:

    Making dreams come true require balance-- the doing combines with non-doing.

    That way you aren't sleeping, but you aren't running ragged.

    You retain your optimal levelheadedness and continue IM.

    Everything seeks balance. The reason we have to remember to "relax and allow" is because, for me, some of the following things can overwhelm my mind:

    When I am going to be done?
    When is this going to be perfect?
    When am I going to get what I want?

    It is in these moments that I have to remember to relax and allow, because "relax and allow" doesn't mean inaction, it means stop thinking unproductive thoughts that won't lead you to your goals.

    Thanks.

      The most important thing in manifesting is to get you entire unconscious mind behind your wish. This is not easy becasue the unconscious is - well, unconscious. You need to find a way to find out what is going on in that part of your mind and whether there is a part of you that opposes your wish.

      Once you have aligned your entire conscious and unconscious mind behind your wish a natural relaxation sets in - that is the 'letting go' that is emphasized in every manifesting self-help book. However, you cannot start the process with letting go. You need to the active phase first.

    That's a very broad and non specific statement that could lead a person down the wrong path to personal destruction. Sometimes resistance is a preferable alternative.

    For example, if I'm sailing and my destination is "into" the wind, if I relax and allow the wind to direct me, I'll be going in the wrong direction! However, if I work a little harder and apply the proper skills, I can adjust my sails and use the resistance to propel me towards my goal.

    I agree with you. In fact i do not believe in that quote of letting the universal forces control you. For me, at times i have struggled with laziness and laxity, but have been trying to overcome this desire of my flesh whenever it comes, and this year i am turning on a new leaf!

    Relaxing is a waste of time, if you are doing it a wrong time. It makes you lazy and a failure. i have experienced this and would like to correct my dear friend for the comment. Its misleading. Although all work without play makes jack a dull boy, and all play without work makes Jack a mere toy.

        Phill,

        Eric here beat me to it!

        I was going to say that I think your post only describes the end of the process...

        Get the object of what you want clear in your mind first. Then answer the question of WHY you want it - stir up that desire and the Universe will know that what you are asking for is what you really want. Finally, maintain an attitude of having already achieved what you asked for, as if it is here NOW.

        THEN we can let go; only then our work is done and we can "Relax and Allow"...

      I think we are talking work/life balance here - being on high tension all the time does not bode well for longevity in any business.
      Learning to turn off the monitor and go outside and do some gardening or outside activity can often unblock a mental trap and let you relax back into the workflow.

      Give yourself time and be gentle on yourself.

      Good Luck!

    Thank you for your responses

    Another quote that fits nicely here.

    "That which is the greatest power requires the lightest possible touch to get something done" Bashar

    I've experienced this in my life. The people who impressed me the most in a positive sense were those who emanated the strongest love & what do we know about love? Well, there is much to be discovered. We know that life is effortless when we are feeling it. And so it was for me.

    What does struggle, goal setting and working hard activate within you? It activates resistance & limitation within me
    Lack of belief
    Lack of confidence
    Lack of knowingness

    Instead when I think of true allowing I feel
    Knowing
    Being
    Allowing
    Absolute worthiness
    Peacefulness

    It's truly a balance between setting an intention and completely allowing
    It can be a POWERFUL INTENTION
    Or it can be a slight suggestion
    The universe responds in either case equally depending on the level of resistance that is being activated at the same time while offering the desire. Manifestations naturally follow
