Do’s and don’ts of manifesting
Keys to Speed up Your Manifesting Process
Introduction
The world manifesting became very popular by this movie “Secret”. The movie projected the word “manifesting” to our consciousness. Every time you are conscious, you are directly or indirectly creating. Believe it or not, you are always in the state of co-creating with the Universe. Your beliefs, attitudes, the actions you often take, the lens through which you view things. It is part of the creation process.
You practice manifesting in order to attract whatever you want, whether a successful business, good health, a relationship or even a material object. Just keep manifesting!
Sometimes unconsciously you might even manifest things far beyond your wildest dreams or even expectations. So when manifesting, it’s very important that you stay open to possibilities that might be far beyond what you think you need. When you are able to align with the loving energy of the Universe, there are no limits to what you might attract.
What is manifesting?
The reality n which you see yourself, are your own thoughts that’s manifesting. And learning how to be able to manifest what you want is much more easier than you may ever imagine.
What then is manifesting?
Manifesting is the process of building the experience of what it is that you want to see around you. And then living and believing in that experience so that you can be able to allow it become a reality.
Angelina Lombardo, the author of a book titled A Spiritual Entrepreneur says “manifesting is the process of making everything you want to feel and experience a reality… through your thoughts, actions, beliefs, and emotions”.
Understand this
When you are able to understand how things plays out. At that point manifesting becomes a magnet to attract positive change in your life, career and relationship. To make something happen means to manifest it. This means the ability to bring something out of the world of dreams and establish it in your daily life. When you are able to manifest something into your life, it’s because you consciously called it forth via your actions. This actually means that manifesting and law of attraction are interwoven to bring your deepest desires into reality.
Is manifesting then, a spiritual act too?
Well, in the actual sense, YES! But it doesn’t mean you will hold unto a set of beliefs in order to be able to manifest your desires. In fact, the only thing you need is to believe in your own ability and willingness to manifest. The question now is, how then do you build this faith or ability in yourself? Simple! Practice! Manifesting do requires diligent practice. This practice is often also known as the Law of Attraction.
Who is a manifester?
A manifester is someone who has come to understand what it mean to manifest something into becoming a reality. He/she will manifest something seemingly out of thin air. He will call forth out his/her world of dreams, and establish it in their daily life.
He is able to attract whatever he wants. Also, he does this by been aware that it is already attracted to him. Literally he knows that he can own anything he wants in this life. His dream job, perfect relationship, or even a one-way ticket to travel to any part of the world. However, he understands that whatever his heart desires, is already there waiting for him. The status of his life, the magnitude of his happiness, all these things are up to him to decide. The choice to have a better life is his.
How does manifestation works?
Manifestation is that spot where all your thoughts and energy are channeled into creating your desired reality. This goes to prove that when you are constantly filled up with negativity and always feeling rejected. Then you will certainly attract and manifest negativity into your life and everything you do.
Take a critical look at your thoughts and feelings is the first thing to consider when you manifest. Are your feeling always positive or negative? Do your thoughts always center on negative or positive things? If so, there’s need to clear the negative vibes except you love to manifest things you don’t want in your reality. This is why it’s very important to clear your mind and have a positive mind when you want to manifest.
Choose what you want to manifest
Before you decide on what to dwell on or something to manifest. It’s crucial to understand exactly why you want it in your life. And when you try to manifest a specific thing in just 24 hours. You also have to dwell on something to believe in order to manifest in a day.
So, for instance, there’s little hope in just saying you want to start a new business within 24 hours. Unless you actually hope and believe you will achieve this very goal the next day. To accomplish your goal to start a new business. First, write or get a business plan, seek for a loan you need for the business, or better still find someone to collaborate with.
Then ask yourself the following questions before manifesting on it:
- Do I really need this in my heart?
- What benefit will I get from getting this?
- Do I feel okay when I think about having this?
- Will this be of good to me and to others?
So, in summary: decide what you want, then connect with the main intention to have it, and believe that you will receive what you are asking for.
Get rid of unimportant things
Unfortunately, always have this in mind that there will be something that stands on the way to your success. This shouldn’t scare you at all, just part of the whole process of manifestation.
Keep an eye out for these three common manifestation blocks:
Negative beliefs/mindset
If you are dwelling in a bad place emotionally, first move yourself into the right state of mind before you easily and successfully manifest anything. There’s no way you will focus on negative things and expect to attract positive things into your life. So take some time out to practice self-care.
Toxic people
Make sure no one is pulling you back when on the road to manifest your dreams. When people don’t believe in you, they just end up criticising you or even complain about everything that relates to you.
Timing
Remember this that patient is the key. You have to be because everything you want will still happen. But it will take place when it’s the right time and for the right reasons. So if anything isn’t happening for you right now, it doesn’t mean it never will. Just keep believing and keep working on that goal.
Visualize what you want
During your manifestation quest, it is best you go to a place that’s quiet and private. Spend just a minute and visualize all those things you want. With your mind’s eye, see those things you are manifesting. And allow all the good feelings about them to swell up inside you.
Add as many details as you can, and don’t bother yourself to imagine exactly how the thing or outcome will become yours. Instead, put all your energy solely on the end result to receive what you desire. Never you think about how your desired object or outcome will manifest and don’t try to see it coming to you through any particular person or means. Your main focus should be on the end result of receiving what you have desired.
Take action
Understand that there isn’t any specific action you need to take to make manifestation possible. Instead your intentions are what will determine your success in life.
However, if you have the urge to embark on something particular. If it’s based on what you already know, it will make more sense or more of an intuition-or inspiration based yearning. Then consider taking that action. Jus do it!
Within or after 24 hours, the outcome isn’t what you expected. Then, go through the first two steps and write down what you want and some of the answers to the questions will help fuel your manifestation into reality.
There are few reasons why you might not be manifesting easily. Ask yourself if you’re really doubting the process. Probably you don’t believe you’ll get what you are asking for because you don’t think you deserve them.
Any of these negative feelings; anxiety, worry, anger, and doubt or negative beliefs might hinder or even stop your results. Read more on how to create a personal plan for yourself.
Recognize and appreciate
Basically, any time you achieve your goal, always appreciate it. That’s the key point! So, take proactive steps to prevent this, because you might easily forget that you asked what you just received.
Go back and know what you first thought and felt when you were visualizing your desired dream or the outcome. Make sure you connect these experiences with the new experience of having what you want. Consider the tangible proof you have that thoughts are things, and that thinking in a particular way can create amazing changes in the world around you. The more you make this connection and emphasize it, the better you’ll be manifesting in the future. And replace negative, limiting beliefs and doubts with superb confident, positive thoughts and good feelings in your mind.
Principles of manifesting
Believe in yourself
The keyword here is, believe in yourself!
We know it is easier said than done. However, the ease is there, if you only decide to pursue it. Actually, creative visualization is a great strategy to initiate this.
Visualize your dreams by believing strongly in yourself.
Believe that you are extremely capable, and through this belief, allow the desire and will for a better life to build up within you.
Create an action plan
Trust me, dreaming and wishing will never you anywhere. Take action by bring it out into reality.
When I visualize things coming to me. It just make me feel better. Visualization works when you work hard. That’s the thing. You can’t just sit there, visualize and then go and eat a sandwich. – Jim Carrey
Develop a plan of action, it is the most important thing in manifestation. Write it down on a paper. Regularly read and mediate on it. Embody this plan by owning it. Then wait for your dreams to become reality by playing with this belief.
Focus on the positive
There’s need for you to acknowledge that worry, fear, anxiety, doubt pollute and dilute your manifestation. But don’t allow them to steal your vibration. Instead motivate yourself into thinking positively. See yourself as that being that’s capable and powerful, with a great future that is directly aligned with your desires. Fill yourself with love, happiness, joy, peace, and let that bright light always radiate outward to be able to attract what you want! The more you are creating and increasing positive emotions, more powerful will your manifestation be.
Stay humble and grateful
Remain humble.
Build up the power of gratitude by continuously reminding yourself of the daily blessing you are getting. Appreciate yourself for the hard work you’ve put in, while simultaneously be grateful that your work is honored, with the results showing clearly. Initiating this process, is one main reason you need to thank yourself. You do this by finding out the gratitude in every success and setback along the way. But never allow your new-found success turn you into being arrogant. Always remember who you once were and where you are coming from. And do everything within you to help others realize what you have done.
Become a conscious creator
You have, for the most part unconsciously, created a default existence based on your beliefs. There’s no reason why you can’t be able to create an awesome life, using these proper techniques. All you have to do is take conscious control of the manifestation process instead of defaulting based on your old beliefs.
Do’s and don’ts of manifesting
The Do’s
Trust the universe with a better plan than yours
Manifesting isn’t all about you satisfying all your short-term desires or having complete control over them. What true manifesting entails is about you receiving what is of the highest good for all. Attracting exactly what you want is an experience you would eventually share in the nearest future. But controlling the outcomes to get just what you want isn’t the goal. Remember this that your plan isn’t always the best plan.
For example, if all your meditations and affirmations are centered on landing a promotion at work. Yoou may completely block a better opportunity at a different company!
Practice the aligned action method
Manifesting is interwoven with co-creating because it’s a collaboration between you and the universe. When you take spiritually aligned action, understand that an energy beyond your own is the thing working on your behalf and that everything is working for your own good. Even when you don’t know exactly when or how it will happen.
Take a sneak peek at this spiritually aligned action method.
Make it part of your daily life
Manifesting is something you need to do continuously. In fact, you’re always manifesting and attracting, just that you usually do it unconsciously.
Don’t keep your manifesting practices to be done only in special places and times, inculcate them into your daily life.
The Don’ts
Don’t expect exactly what you want
Understand the fact that manifesting isn’t about getting but about becoming!
Vision boards and affirmations are great because they will offer you clarity. But, don’t be caught up into thinking that you know what’s best. Refuse to get very attached to a particular outcome or want things to happen on a specific timeline. When you do this, you are cutting off universal guidance and shift into manic manifesting.
Don’t try to make it happen
Never you try to control and force things to happen your own way. This is a deeply ingrained habit for many of us. When you’re on a spiritual path, you might have done some beautiful work to loose this pattern. But the ego’s need to control is sneaky, and you can fall back into this pattern without realizing it.
Don’t save it for one special time and place
Most people think of manifesting as something they do only while in their Zen den, on their meditation pillow, with every crystal lined up and candle lit. They spend some amount of time in that space meditating, journaling and doing whatever else will help them get aligned, feel good and connect to spirit.
Steps or ways of manifesting
Get clear of what you want
When you don’t know exactly what you want, there’s no way you can actually take steps to make it happen. Knowing what are your desire, helps you to manifest something. This means you need to be very clear on everything, detailing the features as if your manifestation is a cloth made for you.
Ask the universe for it
Get your list ready, then time to amplify your signal to the universe by asking for what you want. When the request of what you want to manifest is cleared by universe. Help will come to you. When you don’t ask, the universe will still try to help you, just by guessing what you truly desire.
Ask for what you truly want, never make the mistake of leaving what you receive to chance. You ask through prayer, meditation, visualization and vision boards. But an easy way to ask for what you want is by writing a letter to the universe.
Trust the process
As you move towards achieving your goal, this question might arise “if manifesting actually works”. Probably, you might get discouraged and frustrated. When you are sitting in the struggle and wondering when dreams are going to become reality. Just know that you aren’t trusting the process because when you question manifestation, you’re indirectly telling the universe to prove manifesting doesn’t work.
Acknowledge what’s being sent to you
A way to get begin with this step is to write down the evidence in a book at the end of the day. While writing this, make sure to include everything that happened to you during the day that moved you a little bit closer to your goal.
• Maybe you are on debt and trying to get out of it and your credit card company called to sort out a more appropriate payment plan, that’s evidence.
• Probably, an inspirational quote speaking to you on Facebook.
Clear all resistance
If you are yet to manifest what you want, probably, you are resisting what the universe has to offer. Forms of resistance doubts, pain, procrastination, frustrations, anxiety, fears, regrets and resentments hinders you from manifesting your desires. And the next you need to do is to clear them off
When a notice conflict comes up, acknowledge it and always remind yourself to breath and relax. It might sound something like this, I’m frustrated or am resisting it again. All you have to do now is breath, relax, and let it come. If you are having a hard time letting go of problem, do find someone to help you through it.
Keys to speed up your manifesting process
Give yourself permission to want what you want
As far as I know, the Universe has not provided us with a rule book that dictates when we deserve to hope for a raise, to make more money or to have the relationship we want. I am pretty sure that such a rule book does not exist. We decide what we deserve. No one else does.
So, if you want to open up a glass blowing studio in any country of your choice, don’t wait for someone to tell you that you deserve to want it. I don’t believe that we can be given such a huge capacity to feel and be told not to want. Desire is the reason we do anything. And that’s how we are designed to live.
Be really willing to receive
You might be thinking, Duh! Of course I want to receive it. I am asking for it, aren’t I?. Truthfully, that does not mean that you are willing to receive it into your life, heart and body. Be mindful of the limiting beliefs and challenge them.
They could prevent you from being open to receive what you desire. One way to achieve this is by carrying your dream all the way to the end. Just like watching a movie of its highest potential in your mind. And see how far you allow yourself go in your mind until you start feeling undeserving or uncomfortable. Then look into the “why” and work with that.
Be willing to doubt your doubts
The truth is, the whole Universe is being managed while we are watching TV, shopping, making love and mowing the lawn. There are so many things in the Universe that work perfectly without us doing anything about it.
We are not in charge of the weather, the sky, the oceans or earthquakes, yet we are gullible enough to not believe in miracles. The only limit is in our minds. Our conditioned, human minds. Just accepting this idea and reminding yourself of this fact will consistently help you wave away doubts.
Take inspired action
Doing something to move your dream along, the golden rule is to take an inspired action. This means, being alert to messages you receive from the Universe and do well to follow the fluttery feeling towards action that feels right.
That inspired action sometimes comes as an unexpected nudge to call up a friend from college, who used to be very active in fundraising for nonprofits. It is good to have a plan and by any means, utilize
the plan in any way you can. Just don’t rely solely on your mind to manifest goodness in your life. Your intuitive guidance, when you are open to hearing it, will move you faster than you might imagine.
Strive to rise above jealousy
Being jealous of someone’s relationship, promotion or their new beautiful home is natural and human. But the quicker and faster you move past this, the better it is for your manifestation process. When you feel jealous, your energy is invested in the scarcity side of the abundance continuum. It is a lower energy to try to manifest with.
If you can, think about how their happiness effects the positive vibration in the Universe. Find some good aspects of them having it. If it seems like they are doing your thing, see that person as someone paving the way for you while making their own mistakes. Learn from them, don’t hate them.
Do your inner work
Our core beliefs are like the gateway to our experience of life. Many beliefs are formed when we are too young to have the experience base to know or judge if those beliefs are facts. We didn’t have a choice in the matter as we were growing up.
But now as adults, we have the power to upgrade our belief system, and thus, change our lives for the better. Look for outdated, limiting beliefs in an area of life where you you could need an upgrade. Pay attention to your judgments. More especially things like happy couples, rich people, skinny women, etc. Your awareness of your judgments will lead you to what your subconscious is holding.
Manifesting as an act
Become the observer of your thought
You become what you think and mediate on. If you continually think about giving, as God does, the Universe will provide. When you imagine about things being taken away, then that’s what you’ll attract.
Release your imagination
Do not let your imagination be restricted to the current conditions of your life, or what is called “being obsessed with what is.” Keep reminding yourself that everything that you’ve believed has gotten you to precisely the point where you are now.
Believe in your own divine power
The words of all the great teachers encourage us to see ourselves as unlimited. And to know that even the least among us has the divine power of God available at every moment of our lives.
If you practice seriously, you will begin to manifest for yourself anything that you are capable of conceiving in your mind. You need to unplug from your conditioning and know in that private space behind your eyes that you can and will take on the challenge of manifesting your destiny.
Banish doubt and be patient
It feels difficult when exercising your imagination. Perhaps due to where the imagination has played servant to logical faculties, infinitely patient with your attempts at imagining your wish fulfilled. Cultivate infinite patience with yourself, don’t be discouraged with the speed or the manner in which your intentions are manifesting.
Banish all doubt in place of faith, there’s nothing more powerful on this planet than it. If you truly understand the ability to manifest, you will realize you will be to control the speed at which change occurs in your life.
Align yourself with the feeling of the wish fulfilled
When you put aside your doubts, you can begin to imagine in both mind and body what it will feel like to have your Wishes Fulfilled. Think about about the things you want to manifest. Then use your imagination to see and feel what that looks like. Does it feel natural to you? Does it really feel like this is the “you” that you are deciding to be? By staying only with what your senses tell you is your reality, you will place a barrier to letting your imagination create all that you wish for. Your imagination is unlimited.
Conclusion
You deserve to feel good and manifest good things that make your path easier, smoother and more enjoyable. You are here to co-create with the Universe, the things you desire. You cannot control everything, but you can develop new perspectives that help the process to move along faster.
