If you’ve ever felt the need to shift your mood or just wanted to feel a little better about something, Process 8: The Book of Positive Aspects from Ask and It Is Given is such a fun and uplifting way to do it. It’s like focusing on all the best parts of life and watching your energy rise as you do it. This process helps you hone in on what feels good, and it works like magic.
When to Use the Book of Positive Aspects
There are moments when you’re already feeling good, and you just want to keep that going. Maybe you’re thinking about someone or something, and the positive emotions are flowing. That’s the perfect time to pull out your Book of Positive Aspects and ride that wave of good vibes even longer.
But, it’s also super handy when something doesn’t feel great, and you’d like to shift that. If there’s a situation or subject that keeps tugging at your attention in a not-so-happy way, this process helps you turn it around. And, if most things feel pretty good in your life but there are a few tricky holdouts, it’s a way to gently shift those into a better place too.
Emotional Setpoint Range
The Book of Positive Aspects works best when you’re somewhere between feeling joyful and empowered or feeling a little frustrated or impatient. It’s like a tool for climbing up the Emotional Guidance Scale, one feel-good thought at a time. Even if you’re not entirely sure where you are emotionally, this process naturally lifts you higher, and that’s the whole point.
Getting Started with the Book of Positive Aspects
To start, you’ll want to pick out a notebook that feels good to you. Something that feels nice in your hands, maybe a color you love, or one that just makes you smile when you look at it. On the cover, write “My Book of Positive Aspects.” This little book will become your space to focus on the good.
Next, choose a subject that feels good to think about. It could be anything—a person, a place, a pet, or even a favorite spot to relax. Write the name or description at the top of a page. Then, gently ask yourself a few questions, like “What do I love about this?” or “Why does this feel so good to me?” Let the thoughts flow naturally and jot down whatever comes up. Don’t force it; just let it be easy and enjoyable.
Building Positive Momentum
Once you start writing about something you love, it’s like the good thoughts just keep rolling in. You might find that the more positive aspects you think about, the more you’ll discover. It’s a beautiful way to build momentum, and before you know it, your focus shifts entirely to the good in everything. This process is like training your mind to spot the good and feel amazing as a result.
Esther’s Experience with the Book of Positive Aspects
Esther used this process when she was feeling frustrated with a hotel in Austin. Even though she worked with the hotel regularly, the staff would often forget about her events, which led to last-minute scrambling. She thought about finding a new place but decided to shift her focus instead. She grabbed her Book of Positive Aspects and started writing about all the good things—like the great location, easy parking, and how clean the rooms always were. Pretty soon, she realized she wasn’t even upset anymore! Focusing on the positive completely shifted her experience, making the whole situation feel so much lighter. Honestly, the hotel didn’t stand a chance of being in her good graces before she changed her vibe with the Book of Positive Aspects. By changing her focus, she opened the door for the hotel to shine in future visits too.
That’s the power of the Book of Positive Aspects. It helps you focus on what’s going right and brings more of that into your life.
Why It Works
It’s simple, really. You can’t focus on what you love and what you don’t love at the same time. The more you focus on what feels good, the more you attract things that feel good. This process is such a great way to shift your attention away from the little “potholes” in life and focus on what’s working. And the more you do that, the better you feel, and the more positive experiences start flowing your way.
Making It Part of Your Life
You don’t need to spend hours on this. Even 10-15 minutes here and there can make a big difference. And once you start, you might find it’s so fun and satisfying that you want to keep going. The great thing about the Book of Positive Aspects is that it works on everything you focus on. Whether it’s your relationships, your job, your home, or just your general mood, this process will help you shift into a more positive place. And who doesn’t want more of that?
So, next time you’re feeling good—or even if you’re not—grab your Book of Positive Aspects and start writing. The more you look for the good, the more of it you’ll find, and the more your life will reflect it back to you. It’s such a simple, yet powerful way to keep your vibration high and create a life that feels really good.
