We all have “desires of the heart”, so what’s in your heart these days?
The first step in manifesting the desires of your heart is that you first have to “ask” for what you want. Sometimes we forget that step. You see, without asking, you will receive no answer. It’s important, however, to note that before asking comes a sort of “pre-step” which is actually sitting down and figuring out exactly what the desires of your heart are. (We’ll go over that a little later.)
It says in Napoleon Hill’s classic book, “Think and Grow Rich“, that “The imagination is literally the workshop wherein are fashioned all plans created by man.” “It has been said that man can create anything which he can imagine.” This means that whatever you can “visualize” as being possible in your life, IF you believe, you can achieve it.
What is a belief? A thought that you repeat over and over until it turns into a belief. All thoughts carry a vibrational energy to them. That vibrational frequency is attracting that which you are “thinking” about. Unfortunately, many of us think about what we don’t want and therefore what we “don’t want” is drawn unto us.
What you currently have and are experiencing in your life is a direct result of the law of attraction. Just like the law of gravity works whether or not you believe in it, so does the law of attraction.
The Law of Attraction says, “that which is likened unto itself is drawn” or in other words, “you get what you think about whether your want it or not!”
According to Esther and Jerry Hicks, from the book, “Ask and it is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires“:
“Every thought vibrates, every thought radiates a signal, and every thought attracts a matching signal back.”
According to the authors and the teachings of Abraham from this book, there are 3 steps to the law of attraction and learning to manifest your desires.
3 STEPS:
- You Ask — This is your work and it requires action on your part. That’s why it’s important to do the pre-step and sit down and write out what you really want in your life. Everything is possible.
- The Universe Answers — The answer is given (not your work); Step 2 is the work of the “non-physical”, the work of the “God Force”. Although all questions are answered and every desire is given, it may be hindered because of your inability to complete Step 3…
- You Allow it In — This is the application of what’s known as the “art of allowing. It has to do with the matching of the vibrational frequency of your Being to match the vibrational frequency of that which you desire. So unless you are in the receiving mode, then your questions and desires will not be answered or fulfilled (they were heard, but because your vibrations are not a match, you are in essence, not letting them in.)
So, let’s review… you only have 2 steps, the asking part and the allowing part. Seems pretty straight-forward, right?
It truly is, but here’s where most of us get hung up and these are the things that actually prevent us from manifesting the desires of our heart:
- Telling your story. For example, the “I’m broke story.” You cannot continue to point out the absence of something you want without holding yourself in resistance to that which you want. So you need to stop talking about the story of “what is” if you want something to change.
- Forgetting the time-gap – Often we ask for something we want and because there is a time gap from the time we ask to the time we receive, instead of focusing our attention purely on the desire itself, we go back to the “lack of” the desire and then we end up attracting that. When you are more aware of what you don’t want, then what you do want cannot come into your life.
- Your Emotions — Our emotions will actually tell us exactly what is going on when it comes to the law of attraction. If we are feeling bad we are not in alignment with what we want; if we are feeling good about it, then we are in alignment with our desires.
- Trying to Control your Thoughts — Instead of trying to “force” or “control” your thoughts, try simply reaching for a good feeling about that which you desire and that will guide your thoughts in a more natural way.
So your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write down 3 things you want in your life. It can be for material things or a situation to improve, a relationship or a health issue. Write it down now.
Remember, you only have 2 jobs to manifest your desires (and you just completed the first job, which is asking.) Now your second job is to “allow” and how do you allow your desires in? By focusing on the desire (not the lack of it in your life) and to reach for good feelings as a way to guide your thoughts back to the desires of your heart.
Repeated thoughts = Beliefs.
Beliefs = Manifestation of our Desires.
I’ll end with a beautiful quote from Buddha:
“What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow; our life is the creation of our mind.”
