All of you have little snatches of time, some of them not very long, maybe some of them not even a dominant part of your experience. In other words, you can have a segment of your life where you are dominantly feeling lack, that has one little part of it that is a very positive thing, and when you zero back on that positive thing, you benefit from utilizing that touchstone.
Now, sometimes you don’t have a memory. In other words, sometimes, something that you want has come to you out of your awareness of never having had it. So sometimes you don’t have a memory that you can go back to. If you do, it’s always fastest. In other words, if you have a memory, that’s always the fastest route to finding that feeling place.
But if you don’t have a memory, maybe you know somebody who has had the experience, and maybe you can go back to your perceiving of them. And if you don’t know anybody and you can’t find any feeling place as you perceive them, then you have to do some sort of deliberate creating. In other words, that’s where your ability to create in your mind and conjure in your mind comes forth. But that’s not so bad, you see, because that’s who you are. None of you came forth to regurgitate. You didn’t come forth just to relive what you’ve already lived. You came forth to identify what you want that has not been, and to find the mental projection of it and thereby to create it.
All creation is done by identifying an object of attention and giving it your Energy. That’s how you create. And so, if you are unwilling, and many are not unwilling it is that they are unknowing, but if you are unwilling to focus upon something in a way that feels good, then you are unwilling or unable to give it the Energy that would create it, you see.
