Have you heard about manifestation? It’s a popular topic, but many people mix it up with just wishing for things. Knowing the difference is key to making manifestation work for you.
Manifestation Explained
Manifestation is not just thinking about what you want and hoping it comes true. It’s more than that.
Manifestation is about getting your mind, body, and spirit ready to help you take action and get what you want. It’s like training your brain to see and feel yourself achieving your goals before you actually do. This helps you remove self-doubt and fear, so you can take the steps needed to succeed.
Manifestation helps you:
- See yourself achieving your goals.
- Feel the excitement and pride of success.
- Act in a way that moves you closer to your dreams.
Manifestation vs. Wishing
Wishing is simply hoping something will happen. Manifestation is about declaring what you want and taking action to get it.
Think about financial freedom. If you just wish for it, you might focus on the fact that you don’t have enough money. This can make you feel bad.
But if you manifest financial freedom, you declare that you are committed to creating it. Then, you take steps to make it happen. This makes you feel empowered and motivated.
Why Manifestation Matters
Manifestation is a skill that can help you achieve your goals. Top athletes use it to perform at their best. They mentally prepare for competitions by visualizing success. This helps them overcome nerves and self-doubt.
The U.S. Olympic team uses sports psychologists to help athletes:
- See themselves succeeding.
- Feel the emotions of winning.
- Prepare their minds and bodies for competition.
Your brain cannot tell the difference between real experiences and imagined experiences. By visualizing success, you are training your brain to believe it’s possible. This makes you more likely to take the actions needed to achieve your goals.
How to Manifest
Here’s how Olympic athletes manifest their dreams. The sports psychologists would sit with the athletes and have the athlete describe in detail everything, from getting off the chair lift, to point a, to point b, to point c, until they win. They describe what they are feeling, hearing, and seeing as they walk up to the place where everyone is getting ready. They describe the crunching of the snow and feeling the breeze.
To manifest, you must imagine yourself at the scene and put yourself right where it happened with such detail that you can smell the cup of coffee on the counter, you can hear the cars passing outside, and you can see the bright orange sweater that someone’s wearing.
This is how you remove all the obstacles like self-doubt, nerves, anxiety, impostor syndrome, and fear that are stopping you from taking action.
A Real-Life Example
Manifestation can help you achieve your dreams. Years ago, a woman and her husband wanted to buy a farmhouse outside of Boston. They looked for a house for a year but couldn’t find anything they liked or could afford.
She then discovered manifestation and started to use it every day. She would picture herself and her husband going to open houses and feeling discouraged. Then, she would picture herself turning to her husband and saying that they would find the perfect house.
She convinced herself that they would find a “needle in a haystack.” She didn’t worry about the houses they couldn’t afford or how long it would take. She just kept believing that it would happen.
After a year of searching, they found an old farmhouse that wasn’t even on the market yet. The house needed a lot of work, but they bought it and fixed it up. They have lived there ever since. Without manifestation, they would have never found their dream home.
