In this world that often feels so chaotic and unpredictable, manifesting your life serves as an anchor, a way to ground and feel like you have an ounce of control amongst the uncertainty. It empowers you to reclaim power over your destiny, to build a life that reflects your deepest values, passions, and aspirations. Manifestation operates on the principles of law of attraction, the belief that like attracts like.

By harnessing the power of positive thinking, visualization, affirmations and a strong belief in ourselves and our capabilities, we have the ability to receive experiences, opportunities, and relationships that align with our highest goals and our highest self.

I started out manifesting in 2020 when everything seemed like it was going wrong, when I felt like I couldn’t catch a break and it seemed like there was no light at the end of the tunnel. There are numerous different ways you can manifest your life. You truly can make anything happen in your life… If you believe in yourself and your goals, and if you stay grateful and positive your life will turn all the way around and every single thing you desire will come your way.

When I first started manifesting I thought all I had to do is write down what I desired and get in that mindset and from there it would just come to me. While, theoretically, that is what happens it does take work and persistence.

It takes an unwavering belief in yourself and a strong work ethic on top of consistent affirmations and a belief that you deserve all the good there is. Manifestation is undoubtedly powerful but it must be used alongside action towards whatever your goal is.

Affirmations

Affirmations are one of my favorite ways to manifest and I think they work best for someone (like myself) whose default mindset is doubt in themselves and their capabilities or their goals. Repeating to yourself over and over that you are these things that for years you thought you weren’t (ex. I am abundant, I am loved, I am strong, I am divinely guided, I am blessed beyond belief) will start to rewire your brain and start to build new tendencies. When you switch your mindset from negativity and doubt to unwavering faith and trust it becomes easier and easier to recognize a negative or doubtful thought when it pops up and replace it with this new found trust and positivity. Affirmations can be listened to even when you’re focused on something else because they can still penetrate into the subconscious mind and change your wiring even faster.

Affirmations can also be written, always be sure to write them in the present tense as if everything is happening for you right now. You never want to write them as I want or I need as that puts you in a state of lacking and chasing, not attracting and being grateful for having (even if you don’t actually have the things you want).

My favorite way to write these affirmations is Nikola Teslas 369 manifestation method. It is the one I used previously which helped me to reach my goal and to believe I was fully capable and the one I use currently. You write, “I am so happy and grateful now that…”, 3 times in the morning 6 times in the afternoon and 9 times at night. Currently I am using Bob Proctor’s statement of “I am so happy and grateful now that money comes to me in increasing quantities through multiple sources on a continuous basis.”. It is good to be as specific as possible but it is okay to leave a little to the imagination, you don’t want to limit yourself to only one opportunity when you are as naturally abundant as you are!

Vision Board or Visualization

This method definitely isn’t for everyone but if you are a visual learner and you benefit from constantly seeing the things that you desire then I would recommend this for you. Creating a vision board can be so impactful and it’s a fun way to put everything that you desire into one spot to motivate you to work harder towards your goals. You can put anything that you want onto your vision board, it can be as outlandish or delusional as you want. It’s a tool to get you into that mindset of bettering your life and of attracting all of these things to you. Vision boards also help to keep you accountable especially if you have them near you at all times. You’re not going to sit there scrolling on your phone, eating chips when your dream body and your dream house are just sitting there staring at you.

Visualization is a little different, it is hard for some people to actually form images in their minds so if that’s you maybe stick to the vision board or the affirmations. But if you can form strong images in your mind, if you can imagine yourself sitting in first class on that Emirates flight on your way to the Maldives, if you can taste the champagne they serve you, feel the luxe seats and the privacy of the suite, and fully see and embody the luxury of these things that you desire then this is for you. That is exactly what visualization is, create these images or even these little movies in your head and see yourself in these situations, in this car, in this relationship, start to tell yourself how amazing it feels to finally find the partner of your dreams, how grateful you are to be financially free. All of these are strong tools but visualizing and being able to trick your brain into thinking that all of this is happening for me right now is incredibly powerful.

Gratitude

The more you are in a state of gratitude the more you will attract to you countless things to be grateful for. The universe or whatever you want to call it rewards us when we are in a state of gratitude. It rewards us when we already give thanks for what we have, especially if what we have is not yet what we desire. When we are in a state of gratitude we are already in a positive headspace, we already recognize that there is so much abundance and so much to be thankful for and that mindset only attracts more abundance and more to be grateful for. We vibrate at a high frequency when we give thanks, when we are constantly complaining we vibrate at a very low frequency. When we vibrate at that high frequency we attract so much more than when we are constantly complaining. Do you notice that often when something goes wrong in your life and you complain about it other things start to go wrong as well versus when things are going great in your life and you are giving thanks for that abundance more is attracted to you? This is the power of gratitude.

Anyone can manifest their dream life no matter how bleak they think their circumstances are. If you are still breathing air on this earth I promise you are capable of so much. You weren’t just put on earth to live a life that you are not proud of, you are meant to be and do so much more. Stay focused, stay driven, stay grateful and make it happen, you got this!
