Here's how I do it and it's a bit different from how they describe it in
The Secret:
1. I decide I want something or a situation in my life.
2. I meditate and write down why I want to achieve or recieve it.
3. I look at the limiting beliefs I have about what I want. In other words, I ask myself
"Why don't I have this in my life now? Why didn't I think I could have this before?" Usually I'll get some answer like,
"I didn't think I was smart enough." or "I didn't think I was good enough." You get the picture.
4. I spend weeks and months replacing my disempowering beliefs with empowering ones. This is very uncomfortable emotionally, but that's the only way to change habits. Without this step, I would just be wishful thinking and daydreaming.
5. As I'm replacing my beliefs, I take small steps towards what I want to achieve. I go one day at a time. I don't spend time being hard on myself either.
6. I practice patience with myself and with what I want to manifest......I practice even more patience......
7. As time goes by, my new empowering beliefs allow me to take even more action.
8. What I want starts to manifest into my life as I'm going through steps 1-7.
9. I make a new intention and go through steps 1-8 all over again!
I admit that this sounds like the hard way,
but...it really depends on what you want to intend. And it depends on how you feel about yourself. If you want to be a millionaire and you don't believe in yourself or that you don't deserve a million dollars, you will
never intend it, no matter how much you visualize it.
Hope this helps
