Find out how to manifest what you want through manifestation

If you are interested in manifestation you’ve probably tried reading many of the websites and articles posted on the Internet – and regrettably, you’ve probably had little success with your attempts to manifest what you desire.

One of the questions I get from my readers over and over again is why there is such a discrepancy between what the gurus and other spiritual experts (that is to say, self appointed “experts”) say, and the reality of most people’s individual experience. How to manifest what you want through manifestation?

How to manifest something

First and foremost, the main reason I believe we fail to manifest is that are all subject to limiting beliefs which prevent us manifesting reality in a way we find acceptable or desirable.

The very nature of limiting beliefs is that they evolved in childhood to protect us from those things which were threatening, frightening, dangerous to our well-being, or, in the worst possible cases, so abusive that they tended to erode our sense of self and our spirituality.

It’s no wonder, therefore, that limiting beliefs have usually gone deep underground (into the unconscious), and are not at all obvious to us in our adult lives.

Yet the fact of the matter is that limiting beliefs are what stop us from achieving the things we desire to achieve, and therefore for manifestation to be successful, we need to address them. In fact we need to destroy them.

One of the circularities in this is – as you may already realize – the inherent impossibility of digging out limiting beliefs when they are so deeply embedded in the subconscious mind, out of our awareness.

Fortunately, one clue you have to the limiting beliefs which stop you manifesting what you want is the way your behavior is adapted to prevent yourself from doing certain things.

Inhibition is a sure sign there’s some kind of danger in an action for you – and danger is usually based on a limiting belief which begins “I can’t” or “I’m not good enough” or “I’m bad” or “I’m not lovable”.

There aren’t many fundamental human limiting beliefs; they fall into only a few categories – the problem is that this in itself may not help you identify your limiting beliefs because the exact nature of your belief can take many forms.

Nonetheless closely scrutinizing your behavior and things that you avoid is likely to provide a key to the door into your subconscious so that you can address the limiting beliefs which hold you back.

Needless to say the next question people ask me is “How can I deal with limiting beliefs so they don’t stop me manifesting?”

That’s a difficult one. I think everybody has to find their own route through these limiting beliefs – you need to find a way of dealing with them that is acceptable to you.

There are many modalities, but deep psychotherapy has proved to be successful for many people. I know you may not have the money or the time to access deep psychotherapy, and that’s a problem, I believe.

For there’s no question that while you hold limiting beliefs you won’t be able to manifest very much – that’s very nature of limiting beliefs: they are designed to keep you in a safe space, which usually corresponds to some childlike state of mind that you created for yourself to avoid the threats of your environment.

I’ve offered a number of suggestions about how you can remove limiting beliefs on another website I’ve written – find out why limiting beliefs are so pernicious and so difficult to deal with when you’re trying to manifest reality on this website.

The real power source behind manifestation is emotional energy.

It’s a common mistake among human beings to think that action represents power, because in the physical world actually there is often a great deal of truth in that statement.

The expression “power and control” sums it up: how we exert power in the everyday world depends on our actions, and the effectiveness of our actions depends on our power – it’s a complete circle.

In manifestation there is no such circle: energetic flow is linear, and interestingly enough it doesn’t matter whether it flows from you to the universe or in the opposite direction: all that is necessary is that there is a high level of energetic flow associated with your intention.

You see, it’s that energetic flow (which is not about physically exerting your will, but about impacting the formation of reality) which controls manifestation from the level at which everything in our planet is a potential reality.

When you tap into an energetic potential of your emotions, which are generated in turn by the emotional potentials of your intention or your vision, you can find a power that exceeds anything that you could possibly cultivate in other circumstances.

Used correctly, it is this power which actually inspires, and guides, and directs you in every way, all the way through to the manifestation process itself.

And of course one of things that helps to ensure that this energy flow takes place naturally and effectively is that you do not dissipate it.

One common method of dissipating energy required for manifestation is by talking to everybody about your intentions, and discussing with them how good it will be when you achieve your vision. I mean that goes without saying, because if that were not true you wouldn’t be trying to in tension manifest something using law of attraction as you are.

But the problem with talking to other people is that they feedback a kind of negative energy which compensates and counteracts your positive energy: people will say things like “Oh, you’re aiming too high” or “I don’t think you’re going to succeed” – and none of these statements will inject you with enthusiasm, passion or excitement!

After all it’s only the excitement, passion and enthusiasm that you have initially which leads to you being sufficiently motivated to try and in manifest some new reality using law of attraction.

How to manifest someone

It makes a great deal of sense to keep your energy level secret, to keep your energy level to yourself, and to ensure that you have a clear vision of how you are going to use the product that you’re trying to manifest when it appears or is co-created in your reality by the universal energy.

To ensure that you have enough emotional energy to drive the process manifestation, there are several things that you can do:

One is of course to picture at the imaginatively imagination level benefits and advantages, and emotional state of mind that you’ll be in when you achieve whatever it is that you are manifesting – this involves focusing on the benefits advantages and general increase in your level of joy or satisfaction or pleasure or happiness.
A second is to focus on the ways in which you will feel different, and the things that you can do differently, which will be of a source of joy and delight to you when you have manifested your new reality.
A Third is to focus on why these things are important to you.
A Fourth is to focus on everything about the situation which you will manifest compared to the situation you’re in right now and how these things will be different.

You know what excitement is; you know what anger is, you know what fear is, so you know what an emotional state is, and you know what emotional energy is.

To be able to direct this emotional energy towards the product of your vision is the crucial element in manifestation which many people fail to master.
Visualize Your Desired Outcome

So, if you were to spend time thinking about your vision, you could do it in a meditative state or just by settling down in a chair into a point of stillness. And at that point you could then start to imagine the greatest potential outcome or advantage of your vision located somewhere just in front of you.

You can make this real, you can visualize it, you can sense it, you can perhaps imagine the taste and touch and sound of your vision when manifest. It’s important you don’t make any negative or critical judgments about what you’re perceiving, but you simply accept “what is”.

And as you do this, you can sense the level of energy, the sense the level of motivation you have, and sense the level of passion or, to put it another way, fervent desire for whatever it is that you’re trying to manifest.

As you do that, can you sense how low or high your energy your passion for the vision is – there has to be a great deal of personal passion and motivation for you to be able to manifest your vision in reality!

Useful questions to ask yourself are…..

• Do you believe that you can manifest this vision in reality?
• Do you actually feel excited by the prospect of it entering your life?
• Are there reasons for it entering your life in accordance with your belief system?
• Are you happy that morally and ethically you are working in tune with your deepest beliefs, values and judgments about the world?

You see the truth of the matter is that everything exists in some kind of energetic field, and every energy field is created and influenced by the person who lies or stands at its center – which in the case of your world is you!

Here’s an observation which is clear and straightforward, but often overlooked: the more powerful your focus, the more intense your focus, the higher your level of energy – which in practical terms means the higher your commitment to your vision – the more effective and powerful your energy field will be.

It’s not hard to imagine at this point that the energy field can extend on a high vibrational frequency out into the universe, and it may even be that the extent to which extends into the universe is determined by the level of energy that you’re putting into it.

Suffice it to say that this energy field, this outflow of energy, this flow of energy from you to the universe (or vice versa) is the one that will drive manifestation process.

In other words, it’s up to you to find the level of energy at which you can totally embody the potential and the vision and the opportunities that lie ahead of you when your reality changes because of the act of conscious creation.

You have seen, I have no doubt, in your own life, how anybody who holds very strong opinions about a particular subject tends to be the person who projects them with most force, and may even lead the group dynamic.

So it is with you and your intention to manifest reality – the stronger your feelings, and the more focused your thoughts, and the more able you are to control the flow of that energy, the more successful you will be in manifesting reality.

Use Your Emotions To Manifest Successfully

Make no mistake about it, one of the most important aspects of manifestation is using your emotions to drive the process.

Lack of emotional energy is the fundamental mistake that most people make when the trying to manifest anything – at least in the early stages of their career using the Law of attraction.

Now you may think that emotion is one of the least important aspects of anything to do with universal energy, because intention is everything.

And I agree with you that the intention is indeed very important, but you have to see it in this way: what is it that makes the universe manifest things differently to the way that would otherwise have occurred had you not intervened by using the Law of creation or trying to co-create your reality using the universal laws of attraction?

The answer to that question is that it’s energy – more specifically, it’s your energy, and the only place which you can generate that level of energy around manifestation is from your emotions.

Now people don’t understand this, because there are many teachings about the Law of attraction which seem to encourage people to believe that all they have to do is sit down to meditate five or 10 minutes a day, often twice a day, and they will manifest whatever it is that they fix their attention on.

The truth is that this is a missed understanding of how the universe works. My own interpretation of what I understand about manifestation is as follows: that every single thing that could possibly happen on our planet in our physical reality, is potentially waiting to be manifested in some if the real or energetic or potential form.

Perhaps that is the same as the cosmic consciousness that was talked about by Carl Jung in his works on psychotherapy and psychology in the early part of the 20th century. This would make a lot of sense, because it is out of this cosmic consciousness, this energetic miasma, that our physical reality emerges.

Success comes easily with manifestation

Anyway, going back to the main thrust of the argument: assuming that everything is potentially available for manifesting in physical reality, then something MUST impact the universal dynamic so that it manifests in the form which you are expecting to create using the Law of Attraction.

Since you are impacting an energetic state of being with your intention, the only thing that could possibly impact it in a way that would alter the physical manifestation emerging from the energetic state of being is your own emotional energy.

I say emotional energy because it’s hard to imagine any other form of energy being able to attract physical reality out of the cosmic void. (Not, in fact that it is an energetic void, because in fact is we know it’s actually an energetic state from which physical reality emerges. This is backed up by the quantum physics observation that all energy and matter are exactly the same at the quantum level.)

Now you may know a lot of people who have a great deal of emotional energy, and you may pay you know people who have very little emotional energy, and the latter perhaps forming the group who I would describe as appearing to have a ligature around their neck, as far as their emotions are concerned!

But the truth of the matter is this: that if you want to manifest anything successful in this world you are going to have to learn how to direct emotional energy – and intense emotional energy at that – into the universal energy field so that your desires and intentions can manifest successfully.

One of the interesting things about manifestation is that you generally hear people talking about positive emotions such as joy and happiness, gratitude and thankfulness and excitement as being the powerful forces that can manifest reality in our world.

Granted, it’s absolutely true that they can do that, but I think is also important to acknowledge that negative emotions such as anger fear and jealousy – with the possible exception of fear, for reasons I’ll mention in a moment – can also manifest reality equally successfully.

It seems to me that there is a culture around the law of attraction – probably promoted by the particular emotional tone of The Secret, which was emphatically positive and sweet – which suggests that negative emotions have no role to play in such an esoteric or metaphysical process.

This is a fundamental misunderstanding of the way the universe operates. Essentially the universe is neutral, and it responds primarily to the most intense emotional stimulus that it receives. This is why if somebody is trying to manifest something that could impact you, and you are trying to manifest something that could impact them, the outcome is likely to be determined by whoever has most emotional energy to drive the process.

What I’m saying here is that the universe doesn’t operate with fear or favor!

Knowing what you want and then directing an intense level emotional energy is a guaranteed way to manifest whatever it is that you’re trying to obtain* – and this works just as well with intense negative emotions as positive ones.

You see, the concept of negative emotions and positive emotions is a human construct, which means nothing to the dispassionate neutral way in which the universe manifest anything. In the space-time continuum there is no concept of good or evil, can a concept of good or bad, no concept of positive or negative there is just seamless transition between formless energy and formed matter in the real world.

Fear Does Not Manifest Reality

Now, I mention above that fear is probably not one emotion which can drive manifestation; the reason for this is that fear is an emotion which focuses on black or disadvantage or absence of positive energy. In other words while anger can focus on lack it’s a driving force towards change, it’s a driving force towards getting what you currently lack. Fear, by contrast, is an emotion which depends for its existence on the absence of something, and the fear of the consequences of that absence.

I’ve seen people recommend that anger is not used as a driving force for manifestation because the consequences for the individual using it can be to make them enter into a state of more or less continuous anger.

I strongly dispute that, and I think it’s a misunderstanding of how emotions work to suggest that might actually be the case – emotions are simply energy, and the purpose of examining up anger during manifestation is to project outwards into the universe to ensure that there is some distinct difference between your emotional level on the physical plane and your emotional level on the cosmic consciousness level.

*A final note for this section – I mentioned above that combining clear intention and positive emotional energy are absolutely guaranteed to produce manifestation of whatever it is you’re trying to create using the Law of attraction. In reality things are not quite so simple: there are no guarantees about manifestation for all kinds of reasons, but chief among them is the fact that if your belief system does not accommodate absolute and complete confidence and expectation in your ability to obtain what it is you’re trying to manifest with your intention, you will not succeed.

Manifesting abundance

To manifest abundance, you have to have a abundance consciousness. What does this mean?

Well, first of all it means that you are in a positive state of mind, in which abundance is expected, and indeed, where you are so confident of achieving success that in fact it is a “given” for you.

Manifest money

You see, the point about this is that the old expression “success breeds success” is absolutely true in every way.

We talk about manifestation money and conscious creation using the Law of Attraction as though these were somehow mysterious and magical qualities that occur without our conscious will being involved.

Far from it!

It’s a misnomer to think the law of attraction will get you what you want regardless of how you think and feel in every day life. Indeed, experts on manifestation will tell you that many of the reasons manifestation fail are about the fact that people are trying to achieve something which is fundamentally in opposition to their basic attitudes, values and belief system (including their beliefs about themselves).

To start with, if you don’t believe that you can be successful, you have absolutely no chance of being success, or manifesting money in any form whatsoever.

Regrettably a lot of people who fall into this dynamic will then suggest that the problem lies with the law of attraction and creation, rather than their own inability to believe that they are going to be successful.

One of the most fundamental tenets of human psychology is that we have is something called a shadow – a part of our minds that we hide, repress, and deny, a part of our minds which holds every truth that we know about ourselves but find an acceptable to live with in our conscious reality.

As far as success is concerned, the relevance of this is the fact that success is hard-won in our society; we are mostly brought up with the idea that success is for other people, and somehow we as individuals are taught (or conditioned, more likely) to believe in mediocrity and lack of success as our reality.

How to manifest money in your life

Be that as it may, I’m sure you understand that simply stating positive affirmations about your level of success, or filling your mind and consciousness about success, is not sufficient to address the subconscious beliefs you have about yourself if they are in conflict with this – and particularly if they “say” that you are unsuccessful.

The truth of the matter is that the quality of your life, what you see around you right now, is probably a very good guide to what you believe about yourself and your ability to be successful.

If you haven’t got any success in your life whatsoever, or if you’re aspiring to a level of success that goes far beyond what you’ve achieved at the moment, then it’s extremely likely that you’re holding very negative beliefs about yourself – and you will need to change these before you can start trying to manifest success in the world at large.

It’s common for popular blog posts to go something like this:

• Focusing your mind on success, and filling your consciousness, your awareness, with the feeling of success, make things start happening.
• When the certainty of success is saturated into your consciousness, into your mind, you get a success powerful tool.
• Do you want a new job? See yourself at your new job, and create feelings of certainty that you already have it.
• Do you want to find love? Visualize yourself being loved and awaken feelings of love.
• Do you want to go on a vacation? Visualize yourself already enjoying your vacation.
• Do you want to get a promotion at your job or earn more money? Visualize this as a fact and feel it to be true.
• Do you want a new car, or a new house? See yourself driving the car or living in the new house and loving it.

But I think you would be very naive if you believe that this in itself is sufficient to actually manifest success in your life. These are soundbites, morsels of information written for the “get rich quick” and the “something for nothing” brigades – they don’t represent any reality that I understand to be a part of the manifestation process.

Manifest success

If you want to manifest success in your life you have to work harder than this particular blog post might suggest.

I think what is true about success consciousness is that you can shift your consciousness and belief about yourself by having series of successes, starting with small successes, gradually moving on to larger and larger ones – this is a process which actually changes your beliefs about yourself because you have the evidence of your success in front of you.

There are many other approaches to changing what you believe to be true about yourself and your success consciousness, including the use of autosuggestion, self hypnosis, and subconscious programming.

Simply sitting down and visualizing what it would be like to be successful, even if you feel intense joy and emotion and happiness about that prospect is not going to bring you success or manifest success in your life on its own.

Not, that is, unless you absolutely 100% believe that success is within your grasp, and that you can be successful – and note that for this to manifest it’s not just a matter of believing it at the conscious level, but it’s a matter of believing it at the subconscious level as well.

Now, if I was approaching the problem of converting someone’s beliefs about themselves from the fact that they were fundamentally unsuccessful to the fact that they were could be (and indeed were going to be) fundamentally successful, the place I would start would be by working out what their beliefs about themselves actually were at the moment.

Then I would move on to a process of actually extracting those beliefs and addressing them in a rational cognitive way, before applying some powerful subconscious tools and techniques that would change the beliefs about themselves in a positive direction.

How to manifest success

how to manifest what you want through manifestation

Recently however in the context of manifestation, I came across an important and powerful approach called the Lefkoe approach written by man called Marty Lefkoe who has developed a process which he claims can change any negative beliefs about yourself within minutes… And of course, as you can understand if that’s true, then it’s incredibly important that you (as a potential manifester), as a potential cocreator of your life, should seek out and use the techniques which he has on offer.

I don’t know whether the Lefkoe approach to changing beliefs that you hold about yourself actually works or not because I haven’t tried it, but I do know that Steve Pavlina thinks very highly of it and I have a great deal of respect for that man, since he has built a blog (on success) which is phenomenally successful by every single criteria that you can imagine.

Indeed, if Steve were a man who set out to teach a course on manifestation, it would be the one I recommended unreservedly, because I think he knows as much about it as any human being on this planet.

Yes, that’s praise indeed, but bear in mind that he’s simply done everything I’ve described in this post – started to change beliefs about himself, worked on his potential over a long period of time, stayed firmly committed to development and change, and now he has manifested the rewards. That’s how the Law of attraction really works in people’s lives!
