This is a wonderful pointer from Elan and reminds me of what the American Master Robert Adams once said... "if you want to be Jnani [an Enlightened Being], then act like a Jnani would act."
Q - I want to ask you about “becoming” the vibration of what you wish to be, which you know is going to be some time in the future. I know it's talking about the future, but still...
Elan - Alright, “becoming" versus "being," do proceed.
Q - Somehow the timing is not there yet, but I’m thinking ...
Elan - That, by the way, is an assumption. It may be based on whatever evidence you gather ... but, should you decide the timing is always ... right now. So, understanding this, by all means you can continue to put out in front of you to become something, but what I am sharing and part of the point of this interaction is to understand that you are deciding that, and you are building that particular condition into your decision. Do proceed.
Q - Ah, can you say more about how to be that vibration?
Elan - Deciding is being that vibration. There are different ways to word the idea of "decision.” One of them is simply that you always, at any given moment, based on whatever criteria you use (every right now) commit to who you are. You make a commitment, "I am this person" ... that is being the vibration, 100% and completely in that moment, in that right now moment. When you decide ... "I am ______” (and fill in that blank) you are that vibration, right then and there.
Often individuals will build into their decision, as you have said, the idea of "becoming" and then you are the vibration of "becoming" ... or the vibration of creating yourself toward being that person on a gradient, versus ... the vibration of "being”, now.
The question you ask is an excellent question because it allows us, in no uncertain terms, to define that making the decision is being that person and therefore expressing that vibration right now, in this moment. What you do from this point forward (and again, we're playing with language, it is always right now ... but for the purposes of simply illustrating on a line in the“successive” now) the decision that you "then" make will either support the idea that you are already that vibration ... or it will support the idea that you are one step closer toward being that vibration ... or you can even create it to simply seem to cancel and stamp out that vibration altogether.
This is why we say that you create essentially in three steps ...
1. Decision
2. Trusting the decision (and another way to word that is "maintenance”) maintaining the commitment to that decision, and
3. Action. If you understand that when you decide you are something, you are that vibration ... you are that person, because you have established yourself as that vibration. You then act as that person, and this is the most visible signal that you are truly that person now.
Trusting that decision is simply a matter of occasionally, when, and where appropriate and necessary, reminding yourself of that decision in its full potency, in its full, committed form. And of course, action is the physical output that you express as that vibration, or person.
Does that make sense?
Q - Yes. So, if I use some specific examples ... like either moving in a particular house, or getting a job ... or doing something in your life that you want to do and you're not there yet, other circumstances are not ... have not "fallen in place" yet ... and you already are of that vibration ... then the things start moving faster, because you are already at that vibration?
Elan - Absolutely and you, with very wide eyes, are then "on the lookout" for the opportunities that are already available, that are present, that would seem to physically create the conducive circumstances that would then produce physical results. Everything begins first in consciousness.
When there is the idea of physical events to play out ... it always begins with the commitment in consciousness ... then your reality "positions itself" in such a way whereby your circumstances are either on a straight line (one thing at a time) or you express your decision of being that person to whatever degree is available in that given moment. Does that make sense?
Q - Yes.
Elan - So therefore, when you make the decision, "I am feeling the understanding within myself that it is time to physically relocate," that starts as a decision, as a concept that creates a vibration that attracts circumstances into right now ... that allow for the conducive seeming transition, again, toward the idea of "the physical move." But it begins with the foundational establishment of the vibration of that person.
Q - When it comes to everyday things, like making decisions that are going to affect, okay, let's say they are moving ... you already act ... I mean not you ... but, I would already act "as if" I'm in that place?
Elan - Well, so-to-speak, yes. You do what you would do if you completely accept yourself as that Being, which takes into consideration, "now that I am this new being ... I am this new Being in these particular circumstances, so from what is available in these circumstances, this new Being that I now am, would do this" and you are being ... and then acting as - being that new person.
Which then, again, creates, again, the seemingly "shortest path" physically in the direction that you say you seek. Again, we are bumping up against what you call "limitations of language”, but is this clear?
Q - Yes, but how about limitations of our reality at this point?
Elan - That is a conception and part of the decision-making process. There are no limitations toward “being who you are,” other than the ones that you build into your decision. In other words, individuals will sometimes say, “Well, Elan where you are, what you are saying is easy, but down here, it is not so practical.”
To which I will reply, "Well, that is the difference in the decisions we are making.” If I were “down there.” ... I would not choose to see it that way and therefore I would still get the same results that I get in my society ... upon your planet. And I know this to be so, for I have, again, lived "a past life" on your planet ... where I have seen in absolute application that this works.
Q - So, if you are familiar with my situation, can you give me any advice, for me ... specifically for me?
Elan - Loosen up on the specifics and simply understand that what you desire is to create a more "conducive atmosphere" to express yourself without needing it to rigidly be in any particular place. If you insist that it be a particular place it can actually take longer. If you loosen up and allow you to deliver to yourself, perhaps through an unexpected avenue, simply something that will fulfill the atmosphere of the idea that you are choosing to create to support the new decision of who you are ... you will find that loosening up will open up new opportunities and new ideas that were not available to you, heretofore. I am specifically and purposefully being general.
Q - So, I'll decide to be surprised.
Elan - Alright, but the idea is to maintain your resolve, in deciding that, "I am a person who creates the conducive atmosphere to fully express myself" and that takes care of it all ... what you call your “house" and your "car.” And the final key, the final piece that will direct you toward the totally new set of outer circumstances and opportunities, is to follow what excites you the most from what IS available right now, and act upon it fully, with integrity now. Then you will create the next steppingstone, the next breadcrumb to follow.
Q - Thank you very much Elan, I appreciate it.
Elan - I thank you as well.

"I am a person who creates the conducive atmosphere to fully express myself" - when I read that quote I felt really scared, as if it was the most awful shameful thing I could ever possibly claim myself to be - so I have now interpreted that to mean that have a giant negative belief that are really looking forward to be transformed into something of my preference, and I'm now choosing "I am a person who creates the conducive atmosphere to fully express myself" as my new vibration 😃 Thank you for this wonderful present, and keep posting 🫂🙏💝
