In the following article we will discuss the relatively new creative process known as manifesting. What is manifesting? And can we learn abundance? Manifesting is all about embracing the abundance that life affords each and every one of us. Abundance means getting everything that we possibly can out of life and not settling for things that will help us simply survive or things others expect out of us. While this process does include a number of set techniques, it is also highly adaptable and can be tailored to suit the needs of any individual.

If you are new to the concept of manifesting it may help you to think of it as a way of thinking and a way of living rather than a set of techniques to follow as most self-help manuals provide. Manifesting is about finding our way through the maze of these difficult times to take hold of our own lives and goals.

Too many people give up too early on their life’s goals and decide that they don’t deserve abundance. They settle for less than they truly want. They are discouraged when met with failure and childhood fantasies slip to the back of their minds. Life is about compromise, there is no question about that. This does not mean that success cannot be found if we stay focused. Thomas Edison was a perfect example of this willingness to persevere. Had he not been so committed to his dream of providing light for the people of the world, we might still be reading by candlelight.

But can we learn abundance?

Is it possible to change our thinking?

One of the reasons why modern life is so confusing is because so many of us are focusing on what we need to do rather than what we truly want to do. And if we are not living the life that we desire, we become lost in a cloud of confusion and chaos. We start surviving rather than truly living. Manifestation is a simple tool that may help us extricate ourselves from this confusion.

There are many reasons why life today is so confusing but the primary reason is that too many of us are intent on doing what we think we’re supposed to do rather than what we really want to do. Living this way causes our confusion and we cannot think clearly. Life becomes about getting by. We can disentangle ourselves from this type of thinking by using the tool of manifestation.

Manifestation helps us find clarity of thinking and illuminates our path. We desperately need this in our world today. Our day to day lives are overwhelming. Just think of what is involved in a simple trip to the grocery store. We have hundreds of decisions to make. Buying a box of cereal involves making our selection from hundreds of options. The same is true of students going to college. There are now hundreds of different majors and even more if you add minors and advanced degrees. When a student graduates from college he is faced with thousands of career and job options in a sea of complicated businesses and industries.

As with most things in life, confidence and positive thinking are a big part of manifesting your goals. It is not enough to simply know what you want you must also truly believe that you can achieve these goals. Whether we are talking about happiness in your personal or professional life, it is essential that you believe that these things are possible. For this reason, we must eliminate negative thinking. Like the song says we must ‘accentuate the positive?eliminate the negative.’ Because the simple truth is that the more we focus on our failures and defeats the harder it will be to envision our dreams and reach our full potential.

Unfortunately, the more we focus on our failures and lost dreams, the more difficult it is to actually obtain them. Positive thinking and confidence are absolutely necessary in order to manifest our life’s dreams. You must know what you want, but you must also believe you have it within your power to achieve what you want. This is true regardless of whether it involves your professional life or your personal life. The more we focus on our failures, the harder it is to see our dreams clearly and become all we were meant to be.

*We must decide what it is we really want, both in our personal and professional lives. *Focus on your successes and maintain a positive attitude. *Act. While it is easy and convenient enough to speculate about your future planes and goals, you must eventually buckle down and actually take a risk.

*Look at both your personal and professional life. Make up your mind about what it is you want.

*Think positively and focus only on your successes

*Take steps to bring your dreams to reality. Take the risks necessary to make them happen.

Manifesting contains one simple truth: you do not need to be satisfied with what is, because when you believe there is more, you will find that there is more. Thomas Edison once said, ?Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure’. He recognized that to fulfill our dreams we had to work hard and stay focused on our objective. He understood that there would always be ups and downs, joy and pain, success and failure, but in the end it was about continuing forward, toward our dreams and aspirations.

Abundance is a state of mind that leads to physical, emotional, mental and spiritual benefits. To develop abundance, therefore, is as much an internal process as it is an external one. It requires self reflection and honesty for people to heal their lives and attract the best possible opportunities, people and situations into their experience. Sometimes this process can be very challenging but the benefits are enormous.

How do people know when their lives lack abundance? The most common ‘give away’ is that they are deeply unhappy with some phase or other of their situation. It is often the case that people think of material possessions when they consider abundance. But the truth of the matter is that the people that have accumulated a great deal of personal wealth, but who still remain unhappy, do not experience an abundant life. It is often a sad fact of life that there are many wealthy individuals who despite their wealth have few friends, or do not even trust those that they have, and end up living under fulfilled existences.

In starting to develop abundance, then, needs to start with the way life is approached including beliefs, thinking patterns and emotional habits. If a person is willing to change the way they think (and speak) about things and to develop mature and positive emotional responses, they can turn their life around.

Our world is filled with abundance, but many people never experience feeling that abundance. In order to experience it, you have to be open to receiving abundance. But if you have hatred, unforgiveness, worries, shame, anxiety, anger, and similar emotions, you are blocked by that negativity, and you can’t receive abundance. You can’t even recognize it because you have been blinded by your own negativity.

Anyone who is serious about developing abundance also needs to be serious about facing and overcoming their personal demons. An unfortunate truth is that victims in this world often continue to be victimised. The reason for this is that when people experience negative events or trauma, they also experience a range of feelings and develop beliefs about themselves that can cause them to get stuck in a cycle. This is why the ability to forgive and let go of past pain and grievances is essential to living a truly abundant life.

You can’t separate you own internal changes and development from the process leading to a life of abundance. First, you must take a good, hard look at your current life, your beliefs, and the thought patterns that dominate your mind. Only then can you set goals and work to develop and heal so you can become receptive to abundance.

Making mental and emotional changes is easier said than done but these days there are many tools that can be used to help people. From cognitive behaviour therapy to energy therapies such as EFT and applied kinesiology, there are ways to assist individuals make the changes they desire. The key to developing abundance from the inside out is to be willing to do whatever it takes and to be persistent.

Not all of it centers on what happens inside, though. You also need to act externally; by taking some positive action steps. For instance, you will need to set goals for yourself and then take the actions necessary to move ever closer to those goals.

Developing abundance requires a combination of introspection (leading to personal change) and action. Often goal directed individuals are good at setting and achieving certain goals but they still don’t live an abundant life because they are not living in harmony with their beliefs and values. Alternatively, their beliefs and values may not engender harmony. True abundance requires a holistic approach to life.

When you learn to live abundantly, you can also help other people. You can share from your abundance and make their lives a better place. So creating an abundant life can be altruistic, too. It need not be all about you personally. But it will take some effort, work, and time to make the changes you need to make in your life to embrace abundance as it comes to you.

Abundance is an experience for healthy happy lives. Abundance is not material prosperity. It involves strong, supportive relationships, enjoying good health, enjoying your work and living your life in harmony with your own set of values and beliefs.

Abundance does not just happen accidentally to people. It’s either you change yourself for the better to make abundance happen or you unconsciously attract it through your positive beliefs and actions. The important thing about it is that you deserve to experience abundance in life just as it was experienced by other people. So start your self development and improvement now to attract abundance to come into your life.

You must feel grateful for what you do have when you want to attract abundance into your life. You can block your own blessings with an ungrateful attitude. Some individuals live such a depressing and stressful life that it may be an insult to ask them to practice gratefulness. However, a thankful heart is a powerful thing. Searching for anything positive allows the door to open for even more positive and powerful experiences.

If you find it hard to think of things that you should express gratitude, why not keep a journal or a list of the things you have everyday. After a tiring day and before going to bed everyday, make at least a short list of the things that you can be grateful for. It could be a safe trip home from work or from school; it could be a few friends who smiled at you; it could be the food and water you ate throughout the day; and many more. By giving thanks to at least five of these things every night, you will tend to think of more things to be grateful about each day. This is a very positive step in experiencing an abundant life.

It is also important to consider your emotional condition when you aim to live an abundant life. Your positive feelings and habitual emotions can pull the abundance into your life. The people who support you and encourage you to feel good despite the untoward incidences in life are important as well. If you will remain to feel negative feelings, you will only attract more similar negative events into your life, rather than abundance.

Thoughts and emotions go hand in hand, therefore when you want to attract abundance into your life, you need to pay attention to the things you think and say to yourself and aloud. Changing emotions and thoughts involves changing your belief system. It may seem challenging; however, it is beneficial and worthwhile.

There are several different approaches you can take to changing your thinking. You can benefit from learning the different methods so that you can find the best one for your needs. Many people will find that they need to use a variety of approaches to help them change their lives for the better. When you create new beliefs and new positive emotional habits, you will begin to have more abundance in your lives.

For example, some of these methods and techniques include hypnosis, self-hypnosis, neuro-linguistic programming, applied kinesiology and affirmations. You can make use of these tools that are available to help you create a more healthy emotional and mental state for yourself. You will learn to overcome the beliefs that go against this type of behavior.

Keep in mind as you approach these changes in your life that it’s a process. No one can expect to change these types of beliefs and thinking patterns overnight. It will be a process that you need to work on daily but soon the thankful and optimistic attitude will become a habit for you. Once it does, you will be far better prepared for attracting abundance than a person who is working with their negative emotions.

You will need to make certain changes in order to allow the abundance to flow freely in your life but you also need to be in a position where you can take advantage of these opportunities as they come into your life. This requires some preparation so that you will be ready to meet the opportunities when they arise in your life.

It doesn’t matter how hard your life is been, you will still be able to find abundance so don’t allow this to discourage you. If you maintain a positive and thankful focus, replace your beliefs with more positive ones and overcome wrong thinking patterns, you can control your emotions and have a more abundant life. This is the first step to a better you.

Everybody is capable of manifesting abundance into their lives. It does not matter where you are from or who you are. According to what you deeply desire in your heart of hearts and what you think you deserve, will manifest itself. Everything in your life is a reflection of your thoughts and feelings.

Realizing that thoughts are powerful is a major part of manifesting abundance. The quality of your thoughts from infancy is what shapes your life. However, while an infant, the quality of your thoughts was just beginning its development. At that time your thoughts centered on your basic instincts for survival as well as taking in immensity of all the sensory input surrounding you.

You learned from this point in your life to believe in what your parents taught you. What they ended up teaching you were social skills in your childhood. Then after learning that you went to school and was taught life is hard and having abundance in your life is just a dream and nothing more.

You learned that perhaps you could reach your dreams with too much over work or you needed rare genes or maybe you would just get lucky. You found that abundance might not even be possible. You found that you might die of starvation and not have a comfortable home, if you were not lucky or you were ignorant. Perhaps, you even learned that you should forget all those extraordinary dreams that are essential to you, that perhaps you would have to marry just anyone rather than your soul mate.

The thing is you can have an abundant life without having to fall back on your luck. Having a so-called education is not required for this, or having good genes. You also do not need to have a life of boredom working at a job you hate.

You can thrive, since you have universal permission to do so, you deserve to thrive, you need to know this.

You need to know deep down inside your soul that you deserve to manifest abundance. Particular things can make this a reality and you need to understand and embrace that. The cosmic laws of manifesting abundance are universal, even though everyone is different. These cosmic laws find distinctive expression in you and in your life. As an example, consider the musician that applies universal law while playing his or her instrument using their own distinct style as they compose and play. This is something you should remember so as not to become too confused. Manifesting abundance is personal and has nothing to do with trying to keep up with others.

Now, you have to keep in mind that each of us is an individual. Though the cosmic laws are universal, they will manifest themselves in each of our lives in a different way. Just as each musician plays their instrument their own way, and each artists uses paint and brush a little different, abundance will manifest in your life differently than the person next to you. This means that you have to make abundance be about what you want, not what you need to be better than Mr. Smith next store.

This can mean that you get married… or that you don’t. It can mean that you have more money then you know what to do with… or that you have enough for a simple and modest life. It can mean that you are as famous as Tiger Woods… or as the local butcher in your neighborhood. It will all depend on what your heart truly desires.

However, how do you manifest abundance, what cosmic laws do you need to align yourself with to make it a reality?

* Living your fantasies is what you deserve and you need to understand this deep down inside. If you do not, you need to meditate on the concept of deserving the desires of your heart. Do these while taking the time to find an internal private space daily, if you have a hard time comprehending this. You can do this by learning to meditate if you do not already know how to meditate. You need to re-program yourself to know the opposite, since long term conditioning that you are not good enough to live a charmed life exists within you.

*The first step is to know, really know, that you do in fact deserve to live out your heart’s desires. If you can’t believe this or if you struggle with believing it… take a few moments before getting out of bed each morning and tell yourself, “I deserve to be happy,” or “I deserve to have an abundant life.” If you need to, repeat it when you are looking at yourself in the mirror. If you have been taught your entire life that you are not worthy… then it is going to take some time to change your thought process, which is okay.

*Always know the reason that you want something. This needs to be at the very front of your mind. Manifesting things for the wrong reasons, such as competition, greed or saving face… will only perpetuate an unfilled life.

* In order to fulfill your fantasies, you should take action on the inspired opportunities that come to you. You can go online, read, order books, and watch videos that help you gain the knowledge you require if you are so inspired. Go to certain places and websites and so on when you feel inspired to do so.

*Take all the action and opportunities you can to make this dream happen. If you think you need technical knowledge, for example you should search all over the Internet and gather all the information you can on that subject. If you feel inspired to do something or go somewhere to accomplish this task feel free.

* Allow those things that manifest in your life, as they will, never try to force them to happen. Remember that which you most desire is on its way to you at this time. You need to be ready for it as well as be patient knowing that it is coming to you.

*Just allow things to take shape in your life instead of forcing them. Be patient and know that it is coming like something in the mail.

It is time to have the life you have always wanted. The life of your dreams is waiting for you, start believing.
