“It’s not necessary for you to exacerbate your contrast with struggle in order to get it into a higher place.
It is not necessary to suffer in order to give birth to desire. But when you have suffered and you have given birth to desire, so what then?
You’ve got a desire. Turn your attention to the desire. Think about where you’re going and never mind where you’ve been. Don’t spend any more time justifying any of that stuff.
Make a decision of what you want, give your attention there, find the feeling place of it — and you’re there instantly. There is no reason for you to suffer or struggle your way to or through anything.”
Abraham-Hicks, 8/29/99
