A 10-Step Guide to Manifesting Your Desires

As the title suggests, This article outlines 10 steps you can take to start manifesting change in your life.
NOTE: Throughout this document we use the term ?God? to indicate a spiritual source or higher power. Perhaps you have a different word for it: Universal Flow, The Tao, Higher Self, or The Source, for example. So wherever you read the word ?God? just connect with the spiritual source of your own understanding.

Follow these 10 steps to manifest your desires

STEP 1 ? CONNECT

When you start manifesting something, in your life, FIRST align with your inner power.

Be open to your God self, you?re higher self. Allow yourself to open to the feeling that the God force is everywhere, and is available to you now. It is always communicating with you. Speaking to you ? however you may block out its voice with various distractions.

So, be more aware and receptive to its messages, tune and listen. It will take time and patience to develop this awesome ability. But by working with this force you will connect more deeply with that which is for your highest good.

NEXT, select a desire you want to manifest in your life.

Ask your God force for direction and advice:

is this for my highest good?

why do I want this?

why have I not allowed it into my life up until now?
Answers to these questions could prove invaluable in moving through your resistances.

If you are not tuned in to your spiritual source, there is a chance you will be creating things that are not for your highest good, and which may be ego-based.

While holding the desire in your mind?s eye, get into a relaxed state and just be there with your thoughts, allow them to quiet down.

Listen to any message you have from your source about this desire.

Does it feel comfortable?

Does it feel to be in alignment to your integrity?

Does it feel energizing?
Listen for any signals you might receive, and any insights that come to you.

STEP 2 ? DECISION

You have choices. Once you have tuned into your God force, the force will present you with intuitive prompting? or action steps.

Make a list of what you need to do and what decisions you need to make.

Create goals.

Document your strengths, and weaknesses.

What knowledge, if any, do you need to acquire?
Be aware that you are now working as a co-creator with your God force.

Make choices and take action based on your intuitive promptings. When your goals are backed by the God force, you literally can't fail. It may not always turn out the way you thought it would, but it is important to be okay with that, and know that the God force always gives you something better than you can imagine. The more you work with the assignments, the clearer you will be as to the why you want what you are wanting.

STEP 3 ? RECEIVE

Be open to receive. This thing that you are attracting must match your inner vision, your inner feelings. It will go away if it does not have a space to stay. Say, ?YES,? I allow this into my life.

First prepare your inner vision and feeling nature so this thing will know it has arrived at a receptive place.

Practice seeing and feeling this thing coming into your life. Say, ?Hello, I have prepared a place for you. I know you, and you will feel at home here. Thank you for showing up.?

If what you are bringing into your life is a physical thing, you may want to make a space for it. For example, if you are manifesting a new car, you could clear out a parking space, you could even purchase some car maintenance products. This all helps in making space to bring this thing into your life.

Complete the following assignments:

STEP 4 ? POSSESS

"Fake it till you make it" is a term often used to describe the technique of pretending you already have achieved that which you are working to manifest.

You need to get the feeling that the thing, the object, the quality, is yours. It needs to feel so familiar ? as if you already have it.

After a while of practicing the "Fake it till you make it," you will start believing that what you are imaging is real.

Thoughts are things; therefore just thinking about a thing is a form of having it.

Once you put this thing out into the universe ? in thought form ? it is real. So you are correct in saying, ?I now have this thing, and I know this to be true.?

It may only be in thought form, initially, but now we need only wait for it to solidify into physical form, for it to become real on our material plane.

STEP 5 ? VISUALIZATION

An image held firmly in the mind will come into realization. Live those scenes completely. You have to know what it?s going to be like to truly live with what you are visualizing.

Will you be able to recognize it when it arrives? If you have a very clear vision of this thing now, while you are creating it, then it will be easy to know it when it arrives. You will say, ?Yes I recognize you, I created you on the mental plane and bought you into the physical.?

STEP 6 ? LOVE

The emotion of love is the most powerful energy in the universe. Soak your images in love; send love to your visualizations. When you work with love and visualization, your images are propelled into reality.

STEP 7 ? AFFIRMATION

Affirmations are things. Through connection with our God force, you can more easily focus your thoughts on those things that you desire to manifest.

It is your birthright to become a co-creator with a loving, caring and all-powerful God.

Through the power of your word, you can send thoughts out into the universe knowing that they will return materialized.

STEP 8 ? LET GO AND LET GOD

You are a co-creator with the God force. You each have your jobs to do. You have done what was asked of you in the preceding steps, now you step back and await intuitive guidance. Let the process work through you.

Tune in and feel the appropriateness of any message you receive. You await your desire to take shape before you. Know that God is going to do His job. Sit back in expectancy that this will happen.

When we step back and allow God to work through us, we always receive far more than we could from an ego position.

From a position of surrender you will have little concern for results. You will be happy to just let things unfold.

You surrender to the process. You can tell when you have surrendered because you will feel empowered. You will have no concerns for results. And you will feel energized, confident and joyful.

STEP 9 ? APPRECIATION

Here you will begin to work with the idea that you know ? without a doubt ? that spirit is working through you to manifest your greatest good. This knowing brings forth within you, a feeling of joy, happiness and profound inner contentment. You are so appreciative of your chance to work in this co-creative relationship with your God.

You feel so very thankful for the opportunity to be working with spirit. You realize that you have within you the means to accomplish any desire you may have. This inner knowing releases within you profound feelings of gratitude and appreciation.

Life begins to feel so special as you realize your special place as a co-creator. You feel so very grateful for having found this special spiritual dimension. You come to appreciate what previously you took for granted, or simply never noticed. Now things take on a different meaning.

In step 9 we learn to appreciate everything knowing it is a part of the bigger picture. "Thank you" now becomes your creed to your daily happenings.

STEP 10 ? DO IT NOW

You now tune in and take appropriate actions, when intuitively guided.

Follow the above steps. Do what you feel guided to do. Then when finished, ASK, ?What now?? And then DO IT.

You are a co-creator. If you have worked with the preceding 9 steps, all details will be taken care of. All you need to do is take action. You will feel an inner guidance prompting you to move in a certain direction.

The advantage of working this way is that you have no concern for the future. You simply do the task at hand, and then ask, ?What next?? I know this is extremely difficult for the ego mind to comprehend, what with all its planning for future needs. All we are asking is that you just give this a try. Your trust will grow with additional success.

You are now working with dominion. We are all one and this oneness is available to you. When you are working with the God force, situations will appear that you would previously have thought impossible.

CLOSE

Congratulations, you have completed a powerful manifesting process. Repeat these steps whenever you want to manifest a specific change, dream or goal.
