Abraham vs. Don Juan

For about 4 years now that I've been constantly searching for, let's say, an upgrade to my self. I stumbled upon several concepts of life that I believe are basically talking about the same. The most amazing thing is that they are all coming from different parts of the world and different timelines, but are consensus in the meaning... Every time I pick them up again, there's a different meaning I find to it... Today I was reading about the Second Ring of Power of Carlos Castaneda's 'Teachings of Don Juan', there's a concept that interests me a lot, which is Unbending Intent. Carlos says: "Anything is possible if one wants it with unbending intent and you don't let your thoughts interfere."
Abraham Hicks talks about the same on the Law of Deliberate Creation, where we can deliberately create our lives and actions based on intent. Abraham even describes a true story of a grandmother that after her grandchild is run over by a car, the old lady was able to lift up the car with her bare hands, because her intent to release her grandchild was stronger than any laws of physics she'd ever learnt - this phenomenon is called a quantum leap in the law of deliberate creation, what Carlos calls unbending intent.
As I read on the 'Teachings of Don Juan' Carlos describes a state of the dreamers where you should gaze at objects to stop your internal dialogue, thus to stop the world, when you are able to stop the world then your dream begins.
The concept is the same in Abraham Hick's where you have the Law of Allowing, you can only deliberately create what you desire first by attracting it unto thee and then by allowing it to manifest, and usually, you are in a state of allowing when you connect to the source, through meditation, through the 'stop of the internal dialogue' or 'gazing'... These practices are widely observed as we further move towards the East and let's say that the same concept could be applied to prayers, if we would concentrate our minds fully to the prayer instead of our own thoughts...
The dream Carlos mentions basically should mean something ahead of what you perceive as 'what is'... Here's a quote from Abraham that illustrates the same:
'You're always getting a perfect vibrational match to what you predominantly give your attention to. But you've got to make the best of it. You've got to vibrate slightly different from where you are if you are going to improve where you are. You can't keep taking score of where your business is or your relationship is, or your body is without continuing to create it as it is. To make improvement, you've got to reach for a different thought.'
