Manifestation: How It Really Works

Are you reverse paranoid enough? Let’s discuss how to properly apply the Law of Attraction for it to work in an effective manner.

Do you have a dream? I believe everyone does. It doesn’t matter if it’s big or if it’s small, everybody’s got a dream. But what have you done to achieve those dreams? Do you believe in yourself enough and believe that it will manifest in perfect timing?

These are two questions to be HONEST with yourself about before you move forward. Now that you’re clear on those two questions that are essential to your growth, you will need to consider that a lot of what you’ve learned about manifestation is wrong.

This may come to a shocker for most people, but a lot of us have been applying the Law of Attraction completely wrong, including myself! Let’s start from the beginning...

We’re going to discuss these concepts in depth.

We’re told that it’s foolproof if you follow this formula. Seems easy, right? It is, if you break down the steps into other steps. Are you following me? I hope you are, because it’s going to get realllllllllllly crazy in a moment.

Most people would apply the Law of Attraction in this way; let’s say your desire is to buy a house. So you decide to get clear, maybe buy pen and paper, then write down that goal. While you’re getting clear on that goal, you decide to get clear on a few other goals along the way. Now you have a list of 5 things you want to achieve.

This is vision. Getting clear on what you want. However, the breakdown I did of the first step is the WRONG way to do it. You’ve already messed it up! Reason being, the key is to focus on one goal at a time. Nobody ever made good progress constantly multitasking. This is actually an self sabotage method.

As humans, when we see one thing out of place, we inherently want to fix everything else we see at fault for our lives being uncomfortable and unsatisfying.. at the same exact time. This is a recipe for disaster. You’re preparing for failure when you do this.

The proper application would be to write down that you’re going to manifest a house. Then you’re going to go into detail about what kind of house, the area you want to live in, important qualities that you want in your future home, so on and so forth. Another important thing would be to have a date you’d move into your home.

Boom. Point one done. Simple, as it should be. Step two is belief. This is the most lengthy part of the process ever, I promise you. And the most complex. You have to check your belief system, consistently and vigilantly. If you feel beliefs that do not align with your purpose come up, you must recognize that it is what I call “altitude sickness”.

When you elevate to a higher state in life, a lot of your old beliefs that want to hang on for dear life come up. With this new house scenario, you might feel that you are too poor to afford a house over a certain price point. You might feel that you’ll be percieved as a show off if you go for the house that you really want.

You have to clear those beliefs if you want to manifest your dream. Point blank. It will not work any other way. And sometimes the beliefs will resurface, but you will have to re-clear it again. You will have to refocus your energy on your goal, and with gratitude.

In fact, you’re going to have to be reverse paranoid. You’re going to have to believe that every single bill you pay means that your income is going to increase, because the Universe wants you to live an abundant life. You’ll take every payment you make as a good sign because there’s more money on the way to you.

This is how you train your mind to look for abundance. Count gift cards that you forgot about as money. The clothes and shoes of value that you own count as money. Everything that is of value to you, even a single penny, means you are abundant and you’ll attract more of what you focus on.

Now the next step is desire. No, it’s not about how badly you want your goal to manifest. It’s about how bad you want what your goal will give you. Do you want a sense of accomplishment? Satisfaction? Happiness? More importantly, do you think that if you simply had that one thing that you would be happy?

If that’s your mindset, you will in fact never get what you want if you wait for permission to be happy. Nothing can feed poverty of the soul, nothing at all. A lottery ticket or a dream house sweepstake will not solve your problems.

We have to get rid of the Cinderella syndrome, where we keep waiting and waiting and waiting for someone or something to save us. I am here to tell you that only you can save yourself. Be happy now, be excited now, and be excited about where your journey is taking you.

Now we are about to discuss intention. You already set your initial intention, but now you need to follow through with that intention. Are you willing to do whatever it takes to achieve what you set out to do?

You need to hold yourself accountable and to continue pushing to achieve your dreams. There is a saying that says “Thoughts become things”, and it’s 100% true. Your thoughts cause you do act, and those actions add up to now what is known as your life.

Check your thoughts, because they are the brick and mortar of reality. They influence you, and you are the director of your own show. You are the one who controls where your life goes.

This picture says it all. Here we are now at Action, which in turn really means inspired action. It’s something that you have been inspired to do that makes you happy, and in turn will help you manifest your dream.

The importance of this step is remembering the word “inspired”, because forcing yourself to work on things you do not feel inspired to do will in turn attract an abundance of other activities that you don’t find inspiring. In turn, it becomes a mess. Do yourself a favor and only take inspired action on your goals.

Acceptance and allowance essentially go hand in hand, because you need one to do the other. Acceptance is accepting your belief to be true and to accept that your desire is something you can achieve, whilst allowance is allowing yourself to let go of expectations.

You know of the saying “Give it to God/The Universe”? It’s about detachment. Nothing has to be done, other than inspired action. Let it go, it will manifest before your very eyes. Let that caterpillar of a dream you have turn into the butterfly it was always meant to be!

I hope you manifest the wildest dreams beyond your imagination. Give it to the Universe and let it work it’s magic.
