In response to more than one request to further explain Principle #9: You can't get it wrong and you'll never get it done. (Maxim from Abraham-Hicks.)
The principle means that there is no reason to rush or to evaluate where we stand right now as good or bad because the process of creation continues and continues and continues.
It is just like a sculptor working with a piece of clay. The sculptor does not just toss the clay down on a table and announce 'this is my masterpiece.' The sculptor continually molds the clay to closer and closer approximations of his/her vision.
This is our job as well.
So, in January, we have yet only begun to 'mold the clay' of our year.
And we can't get it wrong (because we are always in a new position to 'mold the clay') and we'll never get it done (because there will always be a new goal, a new opportunity - a new horizon.)
Welcoming your comments on this principle...
Hugs,
Elyse
We can't get it wrong sounds nice becuase no matter what happens there is always something to learn or gain - but we can never get it done sounds a bit harsh -how about we can never get it ALL done.. that way at least I can feel I can accomplish SOME goals...
I have had positive feedback from my request to the universe - THANKS!!!

Yes!!! We can never get it wrong...not even one iota not because we have an opportunity to learn from things but rather that we are on a path and process that we ourselves intended.
And, yes semmantics aside we cannot get it (ALL)done...Life is not a series of events to be checked off like a grocery list. LIFE IS TO BE EXPERIENCED...Not, well I went to Venice so I don't have to do that...went and had kids, don't have to do that...Oh, I just bought the perfect house, don't have to do that again...
WAKE UP PEOPLE AND FEEL YOUR LIVES AS YOU LIVE THEM...Why do you do what you do AND (more importantly) FOR WHO??? Do you live YOUR life or the media's version of what life should be...THIS IS what intention is about...living your life the way you deem it best to be lived...
Thank you Elyse for the incredible Abraham quote today...And, for reminding all of us that we can't get it wrong and to stop stressing about 'getting it done'!!!!

This Year is off to an incredible start! New Job just last week, I sold copies of my book which I published five years ago, for the first time in three years, I am almost done with my second book, my loving relationships (with my mate and children) seems to be growing more loving by the minute and I am attracting more and more wonderful friendships, experiences and unexpected income opportunities by the minute!
The concept that "(I) can't get it wrong," just pushes me completely over the joy threshold edge! Thanks for your guidance!

Thank you for that wonderful interpretation. I think it just goes to show you that every experience is a learning experience. THis month has been absolutely phenomonal for me. I am moving in the direction of having my own franchise. I can see it clearly coming to fruition. I feel excited about every step I take in that direction. So I know that no matter what happens I will have a glorious learning experience.
