I love talking to people about the law of attraction and manifesting our dream lives, but so often those conversations stop with meditations and affirmations and don’t go on to what steps we are planning to take in the path to achieving our goals. I have heard (on multiple occasions,) “But I shouldn’t have to do XYZ, I should be able to create it!” And maybe they can, but I like to think about it like a squirt gun. A big pump action squirt gun, like a super soaker. If you pump really, really hard then you may be able to hit a distant target, but they won’t get very wet. If you move a little closer you don’t have to pump quite as hard and the closer you get the more you can soak your target.
Sure there are stories about people creating things out of thin air, but how many hours do you think they spent meditating and visualizing? They still work and work hard to create what they want, it’s just a different kind of work. While working on your vision board you will have thought about your dreams. So the next step is to not only make real practical stepping stones to those goals, but also to look at our lives and see the ways that we can change the way we live our lives to make accomplishing our goals easier.
It can be little things like meal planning and prepping your meals once a week, eating dinner with your family to combine family time with the time you’d spend eating anyway. You could de-clutter and downsize your furniture and possessions so that you have less cleaning to do. So today (or over the next few days you know, whatever,) take a long look at what you want in life and how you can change your day to day life to make it happen.
Yes, everyday, step by step, I wish more people would talk about the practical side. Its simple actions that solidify our beliefs and vibe and help us create everyday magic.
