         Using the money example, don’t think in general terms, such as “It’ll let me travel”, but be more
         personal and specific: “Pounds for that holiday to . . . . . . I want to take”. Be grateful, with all
         your heart, for the wonderful things your desire will bring to you. Cherish the good feelings of
         security or comfort, for example, that “more pounds” holds for you. Be grateful for these good
         feelings. Focus on appreciating the thing you desire with great intensity.

         Feel your appreciation in this way-alternating between valuing, cherishing, treasuring, and
         being grateful with all your might for three to five minutes. Let it be done, your vibration of
         appreciation has been launched, and it will seek to align with that which will fulfil your vibration.
         Appreciation attracts more things to appreciate.
         If you could keep a clear, focused vibration of appreciation as just described, there’d be no
         more to say, your desire would come winging back to you with surprising speed. However, what
         frequently happens is that intrusive thoughts and feelings get in the way of launching a clearly
         focused vibration.

         For example, there you are, appreciating away, and in creeps the “what if” syndrome: “What if
         this doesn’t work?” “What if nothing happens?” “What if I’m not doing this right?” The list is
         endless. These “what ifs” reflect worry, fear or doubt, and sometimes all three at once. Worry,
         fear and doubt do not mix well with appreciation. It’s hard to genuinely value and feel grateful
         for an experience when you are simultaneously worrying about it, fearful about it, or doubting it.
         Your vibration becomes weak and as such cannot harmonise with the thing you seek.

         If you allow worry, fear or doubt into your vibration of appreciation, you will create a self-fulfilling
         prophecy. You won’t be able to attract your desire to the degree you want, because your
         vibration will not be strong enough. When worry, fear or doubt crosses your mind as you’re
         mightily trying to launch your desire, simply say, “I don’t need to think about that now.”
         And go right back to valuing and being grateful for the thing you desire.

         You can examine those worries, fears and doubts and work through them, replacing them with
         positive thoughts, using the perception cycle, to support your appreciative intention.
         Congratulations! You’re launching your desire! Now you’re ready to receive it. Now you’re ready
         to work your appreciation.
         Once you’ve launched your vibration of appreciation for that thing you desire, anticipate its
         arrival with joy and enthusiasm, and constantly look for signs of its coming into your life. In the
         example of attracting abundance, this doesn’t mean to look for £50,000 under your pillow
         tonight. Nor does it mean that someone will walk up to you with a cash gift. What it does mean
         is that your vibration of appreciation will begin to attract experiences, situations and people
         that align in some way or another with the thing you seek. Your job is to “work” your
         appreciation: to be alert to the unfolding of your desire, to take appropriate actions to further it,
         be open to the sometimes surprising vibrations you’ll attract, and to consciously choose
         attitudes and feelings that support your desire.
         For example, the vibration of your “cash requirement” will begin to align with experiences you
         have, you may overhear a conversation that gives you and idea about how to attract more
         customers or money, or you may see an advert that reminds you about something you could do
         to generate more cash, or you may be given an opportunity with a difficult but wealthy person
         everyone else has found too difficult to handle.
         Here’s how you start working your appreciation. Whenever something comes along that is even
         remotely connected with the fulfilment of your desire, appreciate it, value it, and be grateful. Be
         on the lookout for such events, and act on them.

         For instance, when you overhear a conversation that gives you an idea to generate more cash,
         don’t just file it under “good ideas”. Be aware that this idea may be a path toward your £50,000
         desire. Act on it.
