By the time you read this I may have changed the title away from an idiot’s guide as I believe in positive talk, but I wanted to write this to inspire anyone who thinks they cannot manifest.
I wanted to share the tips, tricks and cheats that I have learned over my years of personal development. I have read books, been on courses and shared with friends…but mostly it is just practise, practise, practise that has worked!
So here are a few hints and tips that may help you.
It’s all about intention
Our thinking creates so much of our reality – whether we are aware of it or not. Have you ever thought about a particular new car and then spotted lots of them? Once we think something, it comes into our reality and we alert all of our senses to that thing.
So it follows that once you intend to do something or have something, your initial thought will be followed by more detailed thoughts on the how and why of your thing happening.
You do deserve it
Once we have our first thought about a thing we want, our second thought will usually be why we don’t deserve it or why it won’t happen!
I view it as the angel and devil that Tom had on his shoulders in Tom & Jerry cartoons…both have a voice and it’s up to us which one we listen to!
We all have free will of course, but I prefer to focus on the positive one. When we focus on something it gets reinforced. In polar opposite – when we stop thinking something that neural pathway withers.
Remember we are mind, body and spirit
To give yourself the best opportunity of making something happen use your three most valuable tools – your mind, your body and your spirit.
Spend some time fully thinking about what you want. Really feel what it will be like. Work out how it could happen (be creative and think of multiple scenarios without attaching to a particular one) and list anything else you could do to make it all happen.
Use your body to take action! If it’s a car go to the showroom and physically see what your choice looks like. Look through pictures of the house you would like. If you desire to be a particular weight find a picture of someone at that weight – you can even use apps to see what you would look like.
If you are aiming to be more successful how would that successful person look after themselves? Would they have an exercise routine or personal development habits to ensure they are the best they can be? What would they wear? Get physically into the persona and feel it in the present.
Lastly raise your spirits – happy thoughts release endorphins and raise dopamine levels. Being competitive and stroppy starts off the ‘I’ll be happy when…’ mentality and we cannot get into the manifesting zone from this place.
Imagine what reward you will give yourself, or imagine telling your best friend what has happened. If you naturally smile as you think these thoughts you are well on your way to manifesting with ease!
So there are just a few pointers to help you – I have a feeling this may turn into a series! If you want to hear more or be given some practical examples then leave a comment below!
