I’ve paraphrased a little here and there but it’s 98% Abraham’s words. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Abraham’s rampage:

What would be the reason to doing anything?
To feel good. Life is supposed to be fun!

When you were created, you didnt say you want to go to Earth to make it a better place, because it needs to be a better place. No!

You said: “I want to play! I want in on this game! That looks like fun!”
You said:
- I want to have fun here
- I want to apply my mind to things
- I want to apply my unique perspective to things
- I’d like my ideas to add to things

Why do any of these things? Does the world NEED you? No! Somebody else would figure it out if you didn’t. Then why?
Because it’s fun!

- It’s fun to figure things out!
- It’s fun to be interested in things!
- It’s fun to observe things!
- It’s fun to draw new conclusions about stuff!
- It’s fun to launch new desires!
- It’s fun to find a way from being out of whack to sorting things out deliberately!
- It’s fun to feel movement!
- It’s fun to feel energy!
- It’s fun to be powerful!
- It’s fun to be a deliberate creator; to deliberately create, flowing energy to the things that matter to me!
- It’s fun to watch universal response!
- It’s fun to attract momentum!
- It’s fun to gather others together!
- It’s fun to feel the fullness of who I am; It’s fun to know who I am!
- It’s fun to revel in the value of others!
- It’s fun to be physically alive!
- It’s fun to be out on the leading edge!
- It’s fun to know my power!
- It’s fun to love; it’s fun to love me ~ It’s fun to love them!

I’m an eternal soul. I can’t cease Being, so I might as well make it FUN!

The idea is that by tuning into times when you already have clarity, and focusing on those times, you will attract more of that “knowing vibration” into your life for all the things in your life.

Here’s the rampage:

• I love the feeling of knowing exactly what I want to do next.
• I love being in a vibrational place where ideas comes easily.
• I love being in a vibrational place where I have a strong desire to take inspired action.
• I love the effortlessness of inspired ideas flowing to you.
• I love the feeling of certainty of “I *SO* want to do that!” that comes with inspired ideas.
• I love the feeling of confidence that comes with knowing what the next step is.
• I love the feeling of stability and surefootedness with knowing what your goal is. What you’re aiming for.
• I love the feeling of clarity that comes with having a clear idea of what you want to do next.
• I love how the inspiration to take action is so natural and just happens with complete ease.
• I love the excitement that comes with the brewing of a new desire.
• I love the feeling of focus that comes with focusing on the task at hand.
• I love the feeling of desire to do a good job on the task at hand.
• I love the feeling of feeling that you ARE doing a good job on the task at hand.
• I love feeling the satisfaction of completing a task.
• I love knowing that there is always another fun task waiting around the corner.
• I love knowing that there will always be SOMETHING I want to do next. Always!
• And I know that it’s just a matter of time before I find it; it’s gonna happen.
• Things are lining up with my desires all the time and fresh opportunities and desires are always popping up.
• I love knowing that I always have desires and dreams, no matter how big or small, and that they are an infinite resource to pull fun, exciting expansion from.
• I love the feeling of flow that comes when one idea or action leads to the next and the next.

I love knowing!
It feels like certainty.
It feels like clarity.
It feels like confidence.
It feels like secureness.
It feels solid.
It feels like stability.
It feels like one thing easily flows to the next and the next.
It feels like ease.
It feels natural.
It feels effortless.
It feels easy.
It feels like it bypasses thought.
It feels like an urge from within.
It feels like motivation.
It feels immediate.
It feels like it’s just there!
It feels like it’s just there all along and I always have access to it.
It feels like knowing. Just knowing.
I love knowing!

Exercise of proving to yourself that you often DO know what you want

By remembering the times when you *do* know what you want to do, it may help reinforce that vibration within you, to attract more of that clarity into your life.

So ask yourself: In what situations do I know what I want?

Here is what I came up with:

I feel this knowing when I know exactly when I want to eat. I can feel it clearly when my body tells me I’m hungry.
I feel this certain knowing when I just know what kind of food I feel like eating. Savoury; Sweet; Crunchy; Soft; Italian; Chinese; Japanese… The knowing is always so strong and clear.

I feel this strong sense of knowing what to do next when my body tells me it wants to go to sleep.
Or when I want to go to the bathroom.

I have a strong sense of certainty when I know that I feel like watching a movie and chilling out in front of the TV.
With that is also a sense of clarity about what I want to watch. Sometimes this clarity comes before even seeing what’s available, and sometimes it comes as soon as I read the description of what the film is about. It’s pretty immediate, strong and clear.

I often have a strong feeling of knowing what I want to do next when I just know that I really feel like curling up with a good book.

When I have an urge to play some music, the urge is a clear feeling of “something I want to do now”.

When I have a strong urge to feel the fresh air on my skin and go for a walk, the urge comes from within me as easily and quickly as a click of the fingers.
When I pass a beautiful flower, the desire to lean in to smell it comes just like that!

When I hang out with someone I love, I often have an urge within me to just go and give them a kiss or a hug. No thinking. Just clear, clear connection to internal desire and acting on it straight away!

When I have news I really want to share with someone, I know straight away that sharing the news is exactly what I want to do next.

I often feel quite strongly when I just know I want to spend time with a specific someone.

I know when I feel like checking my emails or checking facebook.
I know when I feel like taking a break from work.
I know when I feel like playing a game.

In fact in most of these cases, the feeling of knowing is so clear that I don’t even have time to think “what do I want to do now”? I just know before I even get a chance to ask the question! I love that immediate, natural sense of knowing!

The question is, what are meaningful goals or worthwhile activities?

The experts say that what you find meaningful varies from person to person. According to Positive Psychologist, Tal Ben-Shahar, someone could find meaning in making furniture and another person may find it in volunteering in a homeless shelter.(1) When I heard this, my first thought was that it would be interesting to delve a bit deeper into what makes acitivities such as these meaningful. This article explores my thoughts on this subject.

1. Activities that are meaningful because they make the physical world a better place

Examples of activities that help make the world a better place:

• Conservation (eg saving rainforests, conserving national parks and nature, ensuring animal safety from extinction/ hunting / harm),
• Activities that help make the world a more beautiful place to live in: eg keeping places clean, well-kept, nurtured, like gardening, street cleaning, park ranging, politicians in charge of maintaining nature in their sections of the world.

Why is it meaningful to look after the planet?

• To secure the Earth’s existence and its resources for future generations (for our children and our children’s children and their survival too).
• To make the world more enjoyable for us to live in (with beautiful nature to enjoy, with amazing animals to appreciate etc).
• Because “all is one” – and appreciation for all living things, and caring for plants and animals is in a way a gateway to opening your heart to love and appreciation for everything. Strong appreciation for nature can be a gateway towards higher levels of consciousness.

2. Activities that are meaningful because they make people feel happy
Examples of activities that help make other people happy:

• Entertainment:
  - Comedians work, doing stand-up
  - Making enjoyable books, TV shows, movies
• Art: Making enjoyable art & graphic designs
• Music: Making enjoyable music
• Cooking: Making delicious foods for people to enjoy
• Teaching enjoyable hobby classes eg dance
• Doing enjoyable entertainment performances eg acting / circus performers / magicians
• Making products people enjoy (from clothes to building houses, from making soaps & perfumes to doing interior design; from making furniture to building gadgets; and also includes providing services that make life better or more comfortable)
• Talent scouting to find people who are able to make great content that others enjoy. Simultaneously you are making the talented individual happy by making their dream of being discovered and acknowledged come true.
•  Helping people feel healthy (which makes it easier to feel happy) eg doctors, nurses, surgeons, dentists, nutritionists, life coaches, therapists.
• Helping people feel safe (which makes it easier to feel happy) eg police, army, security work
• Helping people feel better about themselves and about the way they look eg stylists, hairdressers, orthodontists, therapists, hypnotherapists, teachers who help you uncover your talents and cleverness.
• Volunteering to help people in difficult positions improve their lives and therefore help them get closer to achieving happiness and well-being (eg helping at a charity, raising money for charities etc).
• Doing self-help exercises to help you feel good eg practising rampages of appreciation and gratitude.

Why is it meaningful to make people happy?

• Uplifting others feels good both to you and to the others. It breeds gratitude, bliss and other positive emotions – and in my opinion, breeding positive feelings in itself is intrinsically meaningful.
• Raising the amount of joy on the planet, in spiritual terms, helps raise the general vibration and consciousness of the whole planet. Some spiritual beliefs state that one of the purposes of human life is to reach higher and higher levels of consciousness.

3. Activities that are meaningful because they broaden human understanding of the world and themselves
Examples of activities that do this:

• Research in fields that we don’t yet fully understand (eg spirituality, psychology)
• Teaching what we DO know in important subjects, enlightening others to understand themselves and their world better. eg through workshops, lectures, blogs, books, youtube videos and more.
• Meditation can allow self-exploration to increase understanding on personal or universal subjects.

Why is it meaningful to broaden human understanding?

• Broadening human understanding is a type of growth and expansion in a positive direction. Striving to improve and grow is intrinsically meaningful. It’s hard to explain it any further than this. Everyone likes to improve and grow. It’s satisfying, feels good, and leads only to good places.

- – -

4. Activities which are meaningful because they allow us to feel we’ve made our mark on the world:
Examples of activities that do this:

• Having children & grandchildren to carry on our genes

Why is this meaningful?

It makes us feel important and like something of ours will live on even after we die.

5. Activities which allow us to Experience Love

Experiencing and spreading love (family-love, friend-love, romantic love, even pet-love) is meaningful. Why? Partly because it helps us feel good, but there are other reasons too. Relationships can help us grow and evolve emotionally. They can be a source of fresh ideas, sown into fertile minds, to inspire us to do other meaningful things by making us aware of new things we may not have been aware of had we been completely isolated.

That’s all I can think of for now. If you can think of any other meaningful activities or general big-umbrella categories for them, I’d love to hear from you in the comments below.
