“Anytime you feel negative emotion, stop and say: 'Something is important here, otherwise I would not be feeling this negative emotion. What is it that I want?' And then simply turn your attention to what you DO want. In the moment that you turn your attention to what you want, the negative attraction will stop, and in the moment the negative attraction stops, the positive attraction will begin. And in that moment, your feelings will change from not feeling good to feeling good.” WantFeelsImportantMomentsFeelingsSpiritualTurnsEmotionAttentionNegativeAttractionWhat You WantFeel GoodLaw Of AttractionThat MomentNegative EmotionsNot Feeling Good Author:Esther Hicks
“When I was young, there was never any space for me to get attention of my own that wasn't negative.
