Take time for what matters, and take time to manifest some creative visualization affirmations. You don’t need to sit cross-legged in a yoga posture (my knees simply don’t bend like that anymore!) You don’t need solitude, or a special candle, or incense. For creative visualization affirmations, all you you need to do is daydream. That’s right – daydream.
First day on the job
Say that you want a new job. You know where you would like to work, – a particular company, or office, whatever the environment – visualize it. If you can, visit the worksite, so you know what it looks like. Then, daydream about seeing yourself there. At the desk in the right hand corner. See yourself walking in each morning, saying hi to the boss and your coworkers. Daydream for a few minutes and plan out your first day at work. Walk yourself through it. Where will you have lunch? Who will you have a coffee with?
Travel Plans
Now, you decide you want to travel. Where? When? Daydream about walking along the river in Budapest. Or the left bank in Paris. Find photos of your dream vacation, and make a vision board about it. Then, close your eyes, and visualize yourself getting off the plane in Costa Rica.
Where do you want to go in life?
Whew – it’s more humid than I thought! Oh look – over there, under the palm tree, is a stand selling guava drinks. Icy cold. Oh, that tastes so sweet and good! Walk along the beach, sandals off, warm sand between your toes, soft ocean waves lapping at your feet.
If you can hold it in your head, you can hold it in your hand
Once you daydream your vision, think of one phrase that you can repeat over and over that will help you focus on manifesting your dream. Something like: “what will it take to visit Kuala Lumpur?” That is the first step in making your dream a reality. Money? How much? Call a travel agent, go online, find a trip you want to take, know what it will cost, and see yourself saving the money, week by week – a trip jar, perhaps. Then, put all (ALL) your spare change, every night, in the trip jar. A clear glass jar, so you can see the money grow. Visualize the jar filled to the brim. See yourself taking the jar to the bank, to convert the change into an airplane ticket. Then, as your creative visualization affirmation, repeat that phrase, “what will it take to visit Kuala Lumpur”, over and over, maybe 30 times throughout the day, as you go about your day.
Be specific and know it will happen
Think of it like placing an order for a meal in a restaurant. You order the salmon. You know you will be served salmon. You don’t say to the waiter “bring me some food” and wonder about what you will get. You specifically say “bring me salmon” and you get salmon. The more
Be specific in setting your goals
specific you can make your daydream, the more it will become a reality. See, feel, taste, hear everything in your daydream that you expect in the manifestation of the reality. With a few creative visualization affirmations, and deciding what it will take to make it a reality, you will have the life you want.
“What’s with the heart attack?” I demand.
first gear, and try to go faster, the engine goes faster and faster, but the car really doesn’t gain much speed. Switch to second gear and the engine slows down, allowing the car to go faster. Third gear – the engine works even slower, and the car goes even faster. It’s the same with your mind. Slow down your thinking to go faster towards your goal of more abundance in your life. Find purpose in life; be mindful of what you think about, and whether you call it meditation, or prayer, or reflection – take the time to slow down your mind, to achieve your goals through purposeful thoughts which will lead to living your purpose.
land on a leaf of a lily. Tree frogs are tiny. About the size of my thumbnail. Yet, he leaped, after a bit of preparation, straight through the air from a secure perch to a leaf that wobbled and bent as he landed on it.
Judging by the number of tree frogs in my garden – not very often!! Any leap in life means new directions. I have often read the phrase “take the road less travelled”, which is a leap of faith. Having done that enough times in my life, is there a point where the leap of faith becomes hard wired in me; to leap forward regardless of the possibility of failure?
