Making Your Journey Quantifiable

Abe recommends that we use the emotional guidance scale to quantify our journey of allowing, but what I have found to be helpful is to identify the essence of what I want after I decide to allow it. Sanaya Roman gives a really lucid and clear description of what that essence is, the essence of our desire, in their book Creating Money. (See here for a review.) Basically, the essence of what we want is the higher quality(ies) that we want to realize through manifesting our desire. The desire for money can have the higher quality of freedom or power or abundance, etc. for us. The essence of our desire is the spiritual meaning it has for us basically. So the essence of money would be one or all of those things depending on what we valued.

When I want to discern the progress I am making on my journey of allowing, I start by focusing on the quality of my experience. I look for the emotions and higher qualities that I am experiencing so far. Do I feel greater relief? What kinds of emotions am I experiencing? What are the higher qualities experienced thus far? In essence, what is the quality of my experience? By looking at these questions, I am able to determine the kind of progress I am making. I know that ultimately, I need to get to the point consistently where I can see, feel, and know deeply that my desire will manifest in order to fully allow it.
