In the moment that you have a desire, the non-physical aspect of you becomes your desire and then holds the vision of that desire on your behalf while you gradually adjust your habitual physical focus.

In the moment that you launched that rocket of desire, you were a vibrational match to it (for a split second) but it was not a habitual vibrational match. That is why you are not living the desire instantly in your physical reality.

So there is no difference between coming into alignment with the broader, non-physical part of you (which is now already living that desire) and coming into alignment with what you want.

And so there is no difference between the guidance towards alignment from the Emotional Guidance System and manifesting what you want.

Aiming towards feeling good will get you both.

I tried an experiment years ago where I wanted to be of service to others. I really really wanted to make a difference like healing someone or helping someone in trouble. Basically I was yearning for the "Hero" experience.

With this intent in mind I started asking from God again and again to show me how I could have this "Hero" experience. Then two events of significance emerged out of this "asking".

The first was when I was driving my car, having picked it up from a repair, I was returning home when a strong feeling, (Not a voice) told me that I am to help some people up ahead on the road I was driving on. No sooner that this feeling passed my consciousness, I saw a group of people, a man, a woman, and two children, standing on the side of the street with a desperate look on their face.

I instinctively knew that this was the group I was supposed to help. I pulled over, got out of the car, & approached the man saying Hi there I am supposed to help you. Where do you want me to drive you? You should have been there to see the reaction on this mans face.

There was jaw dropping disbelief combined with tears in his eyes. He told me that at that moment he was praying for someone to help them. I don't know if my response to this was arrogant or not, but I said to him, I know, God told me to help you.

So I drove them to the subway station & provided them with the sufficient financial funds to continue their journey. (They were out of cash & needed to catch some connecting bus out of town)

A similar incident happened again this time with an elderly lady needing help carrying her luggage up a long flight of stairs. Again, she was praying when I got this "command" to help.

Then I realized that I was mostly driven by the selfish desire to feel important rather than to really make a difference without an ulterior motive on my part. So I stopped asking for more "Hero" opportunities from God. But I retained the feeling of recognition of the guidance I received from God or this higher power. This feeling is not a thought that is ambiguous. It is very clear, very specific, and very loud in its intensity.

That experience allowed me to identify what it feels like when one receives a clear emotional guidance from a different source, other that one's own imagination. All I can say is that there is such a thing as guidance and it is real. And the best part is you can experience this by intently asking for such an experience to be given to you.

The secret is to relinquish control to a higher power and ask for guidance. The more we ask instead of discovering by self, effort, the easier it is to find the answers to the questions that challenge our intellect.
