Signs of true releasing

Francis,

Lester always said "Don't believe a word I say but take it for checking". Instead of looking for benchmarks "out there in the physical" or benchmarks set by others, prove to yourself that it is working.

How can you take it for checking, you may ask? Well, set a goal that you accomplish by releasing only. "I allow myself to have ___ by releasing only with ease". Make it an easy goal to achieve, such as a cheap item you'd like to have. Not too cheap - let's keep it under $100 for your first item. As long as it is physical and tangible - something you can hold in your hands so that you prove to yourself you can manifest physical items.

I tend to see with money that people shrug it off as "coincidence", like they released on $100 or more by releasing only and they got a tax return that gave them that money. Excuse me, you just achieved your goal and still call it coincidence? It's funny how the mind can invalidate goals that way. Money can be quite intangible since most of it is just plain digital numbers on a bank account these days...

So start out with something else, that you'd normally have to pay money for, such as a DVD or DVD set. A book, a CD, etc.

Release the goal to completion - no attachments, and no aversions left. You can do this by using the Advantages & Disadvantages and Likes & Dislikes processes on your goal, ie. "What advantage is it to me to have this goal?", Lesterizing, The Special Cleanup Procedure, and just the normal goals process.

When the item drops into your life, acknowledge it as a gain and write it down on paper with a pen in your gains journal. And then start proving even more that releasing is working, by raising the bar on your goals a little bit higher. That's how you prove to yourself this stuff works.

Because only you can prove it to yourself. I've had fantastic, huge gains dropping in...and I've had very nice and small gains dropping in...and everything inbetween. It's not just the big stuff that I call a "gain" - every time you let go of a negative feeling, you have a gain to share. Allow yourself to shift your perspective on what you call a gain. Like Omer said a while ago, "A gain is something I choose to see as a gain" (or something like that - thanks Omer, great one!).

How do you ensure great results? Get a releasing buddy who holds you accountable on releasing on your goals, and you hold them accountable on releasing on their goals. Your mind can distract you from achieving goals, so it's nice to have someone there to hold you accountable. Another way ofcourse is to hire a coach who can help you with achieving your goals.

I'm just giving some suggestions - it's up to you to implement what you prefer. Just start small, release until completion on the goal - until there's no attachments and no aversions.

My first benchmark with releasing, by the way, was a money goal of 500 euros dropping in by doing a "job" that literally I just attracted into my life. I had done other money goals before, and they worked too - just my mind said "yeah yeah those are just small amounts you would have gotten anyway". I am talking out of experience here - I know what you are going through.

So anyway, I released on the 500 euro goal until completion, and then a couple of days later, one of my collegues at work said "My girlfriend's brother would like a software project done. Could you help him out?" (I am a computer programmer by profession by the way, just to make that clear). So of course I said "yes", and that's how it happened. The amount of money I got? 500 euros. Bang! That was enough proof to me for me to go "yup this stuff works for manifesting very well!".

Just make sure that you let go of wanting to figure it out, and let go of disapproving of yourself and give yourself approval. Positive attracts positive, as Larry Crane is fond of saying. Which I've proven to myself to be true. Don't believe me on my word but take it for checking yourself. :)

What I meant was what were the miracles you have had happen to you that been benchmarks to you. I have a general sense that I am releasing and that's it's doing something positive (was in a prettynegative space and now staying in neutral) but no benchmarks that truly confirm it's releasing and not just coincidence.

Like acquiring powers which for a normal human being it is impossible. It includes being able to read other people's minds, being able to manifest things without effort, being able to get rid of health problem just mentally, being able to attract all +ves, being able to remember things very easily and acquire extraordinary memory. Also we should not release to acquire these, rather these need to come naturally and on its own.....
I am far away from lot of these, but I clearly see these as benchmarks and signs that releasing is truly happening
