Making the Impossible Possible

I was never a firm believer in the concept of "Manifestation" and didn't quite grasp how it worked. However, over the years, I have experienced a few instances of successful manifestation.

In my view, simply "wishing" for things won't magically make them happen. When I engage in manifestation, I focus my mind intensely on the desired goal. I write down my aspirations and speak them outloud, sharing them with others. If no one is listening, I tell the universe.

Undoubtedly, taking action is essential to achieving goals. Once you have made the plan, keep it top of mind at all times, and accomplish small tasks everyday to achieve the goal.

I believe manifestation was at play when I purchased my first business. I committed myself to this goal, immersing myself in understanding the business, the purchasing process, and the strategies for success. Everyone around me knew about my objective.

I would envision myself immersed in the day-to-day operations, executing marketing campaigns, and engaging with the community. I spent half of my day working and learning, and the other half developing marketing plans, building financial projections, break-even analysis, and roadmaps to achieve the goal.

Always in the back of my mind was my "Why" for embarking on this path of business ownership. If you haven't read my bio, I speak about my "Why", and how it pushed me to accomplish my goals. It was my driving force, a reminder I carried with me every day. It made persevering through obstacles and bad days much easier because I constantly reminded myself of the purpose behind my endeavors. There was no alternative path in my mind.

As for today, I am focusing on a few specific goals, but mostly I am keeping my mind open to opportunities and focusing on what truly fulfills me in life. I prioritize my relationships, mental and physical health, and creativity.

I reflect on my previous goals and observe how they have evolved. I often contemplate what genuinely brings me happiness. While money used to be my primary objective in my twenties, my priorities have shifted. I now have a deeper understanding of what truly matters for my well-being. I acknowledge that money can only provide half of the equation.  

My present manifestation practices involve regularly reviewing and adjusting my short-term and long-term goals, brainstorming strategies to achieve them, sharing them with others, seeking help from others, and even hiring professionals who can provide an unbiased perspective. I write and share my thoughts, goals, and ideas, sometimes merely as a way to clear my mind.
