Reach for emotional satisfaction.

This little quote is not from Abraham, but from someone who practices deliberately the Law of Attraction. It is just as brilliant as Abraham! This is in response to a complaint as to why the person did not get what they wanted exactly. They got something close, but not exactly.

You didn't get exactly what you wanted because what you were reaching for wasn't just the stuff, the manifestations, you were reaching for the emotional satisfaction you THOUGHT you'd get from getting what you want. You've got to find a way to reach for that emotional satisfaction first, because unless you offer that vibration, there's no way the manifestation can bring you something that you're not a match to.
