Some of y’all have heard of manifesting by now. However, I want to shine some light on those who have been living under a rock for some time. Or, you completely ignored manifesting until now. Well, grab your broomstick because we’re going on a ride of information. So, make sure you’re sitting down and have something to put some notes into.
I am not going to give you TOO much information, but enough to get you going. Think of this as the introduction course. Alrighty then, let’s start.
Define manifestation
When defining manifestation, there are many definitions that come when you search for it. The one I am going to go over is this:
manifestation : the act, process, or an instance of manifesting
manifesting : to make evident or certain by showing or displaying
Now, you may have heard of manifestation years before, but you just did not have a word for it. I know I heard my mother mention so many things to me that I would now label as manifestation. For example, she would say that life and death is in the power of the tongue. She would also say that you have what you speak. I always took that into mind, but I never really thought about it too deeply.
It wasn’t until I heard someone talk about manifestation and its definition. Soon, I realized I had been surrounded by manifestation my whole life. Now, I could dive deeper into it.
What’s the point of manifestation?
Manifestation is when you bring dreams or any desire to life through your beliefs, actions, and thoughts. Think about those who have made it and they mention that they knew in their mind that they were going to be a star, famous, and now they are. They brought a desire to life through their belief that they were meant to be a star.
An example is Jim Carrey and him writing himself a $10 million dollar check to himself. If you know the story then you can skip to the next paragraph. If not, I’ll give you a quick run down. During this time, Jim was out of work. Yet, he told himself that he was a popular actor who had all of these directors that wanted to work with him. He would tell it to himself until he truly believed himself. Jim Carrey also wrote a check to himself for $10 million dollars for acting, and he kept it in his wallet. He carried it for years, and you know what happened? He got a $10 million dollar check for acting in The Mask.
By having these thoughts and beliefs, he was able to attract his desired outcome. I find that story so interesting, and there are thousands of others who have stories similar to that. Personally, I do not see those are just coincidences. I see them as evidence.
How can words have such an effect?
Think of something someone has said to you that had an effect on you. It could have been something positive like a compliment or something negative like a criticism. Why do you think they had such a lasting impression on you? Because words have power whether we acknowledge them or not. With words, we have the ability to hurt, heal, lift, or tear someone.
So, why can’t we think the same when it comes to our dreams? Desires? You may think that when dismissing your dream or passion, you are just declining that dream. On the contrary, you are dismissing that person who has that dream. By telling yourself that it is impossible, guess what? You are going to think that it is impossible.
I cannot do anything to change your mind. I can give you a new perspective that may open up your own. But, if the words you have implemented into your mind have strong roots, it may just stay. Those words were planted there, and though it may not have been by you, you still have to do something.
When do I manifest?
You are always manifesting. I mean, you are thinking and digesting so much information already. But that is a WHOLE other topic that we can fly into later. We’re going to talk about actively manifesting.
Honestly, you can manifest whenever you like to me. There are some that say to wait for certain lunar phases to manifest. Others say to not manifest on certain days, months, hours, etc. I believe that you should do what feels right to you. If that means to follow some of these rules, then by all means, go for it! If not, then figure out what feels right for you.
How do I manifest?
You can manifest in SO many ways. I’ll just narrow them down to these 3: visualization, affirmations, and scripting. With visualization, you are envisioning what it would be like to have that desire or outcome. That can be your crush telling you that they like you back or you getting the call that you got your dream job. Affirmations are telling yourself that you have that dream job, car, life, whatever you want. Then the scripting, to me, is writing your desires as if they had already occurred.
The key to manifestation is that you already have it. It is yours. No ifs, ands, or buts.
If you want to find other methods that you feel work for you, do it! Do what makes you feel the best and forget the rest.
