Looking back over the past three years since I dropped out of college to chase my dreams, I have learned a lot about how (and more importantly how not) to create a life that I truly want to live. I am getting closer than ever to being in an ideal location, with a cozy home, a fulfilling job, with amazing food, friends and fun abound. So here is what I've learned on my path to creating an exciting, happy and fulfilling life:
The first and most important principle for manifesting is to always work for the highest good of yourself and all concerned. You are not going to get anywhere by being selfish and the universe will throw it back in your face. Open your heart and feel compassion for yourself, others and the world at large. Think about how your success can contribute to the success of those around you and how that makes life better for everyone. Contemplate a better world, where everyone has what they need always, where there is no suffering, hatred, war or greed and think about what your place in that world would be. Are you a great musician, healer, dancer, artist, writer, thinker, builder, farmer, scientist, athlete, or organizer? Aligning your vision with a vision that betters the entire planet is a sure-fire way to get what you want with the force of creation as the wind in your sails. Ultimately a world where everyone gets to realize their dreams and contribute their passions is a better place indeed.
Next, set a clear intention for what you would ideally like to have in your life. Forget about money and worldly limitations and let yourself dream and fantasize about what would be truly fulfilling, what would be your ideal life. Go big! Include all the details and anything that may seem trivial. Maybe you want to become better at yoga, work with animals, live in the tropics, grow a garden, write a novel, attain perfect health, or open a juice bar. No dream is too big or too small. If you figure out what it is exactly that you want, down to the last detail, it is more likely to manifest in your physical reality. Spend some time meditating on these dreams, visualizing them, feeling what it would be like to have all these things actualized.
Then, make a list of goals that you have for yourself, skills that you would like to acquire, or places you would like to visit. What realistic steps can you take today to get you closer to your dreams? Once you have this down, it is time to go out an take action! Sign up for yoga classes, go to the farmers market and buy all the healthy food you need for your new healthy lifestyle, start advertising your services, read up on gardening, book a ticket to the location you’ve always wanted to see. Action is a demonstration of our commitment and seriousness to make our dreams really happen right here and now. Consistency is important, so make sure to stay focused on your vision and weed out any distractions that keep your dreams from manifesting like T.V., mindless Facebook scrolling, or anything else that does not serve your vision.
Keep in mind you may have to let go of people, places, things, and habits that are not serving you to reach your dreams. Let these go with ease and grace realizing that people, places, things and habits that are more aligned with your vision will come to take their place. This is literally the process of a reality upgrade, so be prepared for your life to shift radically. If you end up manifesting something that is not what you desire, you can always go back to the drawing board and start over. You are not “stuck” ever, you can always begin anew and dream a new dream. This is how we figure out what we truly want.
