Intention-Manifestation, How Do You Do It?

[MetaFitX]

As in, how do you personally do it? Sitting lotus position with eyes closed and visualizing? If so what do you visualize? When do you perform these visualizations, afternoon or evening or other? How often?

Personally, I have a list written down but I never visualize. Should I go through my list visualizing each one separately, or the totality of my life as if they had already been fulfilled?

Just curious. Thanks.

[WordKeeper]

The latter sounds easier = make it easy! Visualize as if you already had!!!

[MagicalRealist]

I do a lot of different things, none of which involve sitting in a lotus position. They include (but are not limited to):

--Writing affirmations/affirmative statements of my desire over and over again (and sometimes reading them out loud afterwards)
--Writing letters from my future self to my present self, and vice versa
--Writing journal entries from the perspective of my future self, who has seen my desire manifested
--Drawing or painting images (literal or symbolic) of what I want
--Recognizing the good things in my life right now, feeling deep gratitude for them, and also feeling gratitude for a future that will include even more good things. (I think this one might be the most important.)
--Giving things away for free. My stuff, freely given, could be someone else's desired gift from the universe. By giving it away, I not only manifest someone else's desire, but also affirm the abundance in my own life and clear space for more and better things to come in.

I have no schedule; I do them whenever I feel inspired to do so. If it feels like work, or duty, or anything less than fun, I don't do it. But of all those techniques, if one doesn't feel right another will. You'll find things that feel right for you, in time. So I end up doing some focused intending every day, and usually many times a day. I'm to the point where I don't have to drop what I'm doing and sit down somewhere quiet to do it; I can do it pretty much anytime, anywhere.

Sometimes I focus on specific things, but usually I prefer to look at the "big picture." They are both important, but I can easily get hung up by specifying too many details.

So the bracelet I want from Tiffany's? Yeah, I'm really specific on that one. But my future lover's physical appearance? I'm much less so; it's the personality that matters most. I can still work with the idea of being very attracted to that person on a physical level, but I have very wide tolerances for "attractiveness." So focusing on a Hugh Jackman look-alike, while nice, is just getting in my own way for no good reason. If I can identify the pure essence of my desire, why place unnecessary limits on the things that truly don't matter?

If I'm not clear on the specifics of what I want, but I am clear on the essence of it and how I want to feel when I have it, I don't even have to visualize. I can just work myself into a state of feeling right now whatever it is I expect to feel in that future. Visualization's important, but I think that learning to summon (and maintain) the right emotional state can be every bit as effective--and in my experience it is sometimes even more so.

How To Manifest Absolutely Everything You Want

This is my article that explains how to manifest things.

[MacFly]

how many of you guys agree with the statement, that as long as you NEED it, you won't manifest it?

[TerryHill695]

The first step is to very clearly and specifically decide exactly what it is that you want. Commit it to paper and fully write all the details of what you desire, then you have started the process of manifestation simply by taking the idea from your mind and manifesting it onto paper where it is now stated in reality.

Once you know exactly what it is that you want, you need to ensure you create a positive, present tense goal statement, with a date by which you want to acheive your goal. An example might be - I am so happy and grateful now that it is the <<< Enter Your Goal Date Here >>> and I now have in my posession <<< Enter Your Goal Object Here - Be Specific! >>>

Now that you know what you want and you have a positive goal statement written in the correct manner for your subconscious mind to understand, you need to then deeply implant this idea in your subconscious mind (because your subconscious mind is the doing part of the brain and it will carry out whatever instructions you give to it!). Here are various ways of doing this:

Write out your goal statement as soon as you wake up in the moming and just before you go to bed (when your subconscious is naturally open to repgrogramming). Ideally you should do this as many times as possible throughout the day to deeply ingrain the instruction in your mind.

You also need to visualize yourself achieving the object of your desire and you must add positive emotion at the same time as you are imagining the goal being manifested. For example, if you want to manifest $1 million dollars, then visualize the money being transferred into your bank account and imagine how incredible you will feel when you receive the money. I have found that real images work best - so if you want a new car, then get a picture of yourself inside the car you want (take one for a test drive and get a photo) - the more senses you get involved in your imagination (sight, smell, taste, hearing, feel) the more powerful your manifestation will be and the quicker you will get your goal.

In a meditative type state, or an alpha brain wave state, which is simply being relaxed, you can also read out your goal statement to yourself out loud 3 times. When in an alpha state you can directly access your subconscious mind and give it suggestions. By giving a suggestion to your mind 3 times it will stick and will begin to manifest from that point on.

The key to manifesting things is to successfully communicate what you desire to your subconscious mind, as this is the part of your brain that actually brings to you what you want. The subcosncious works hand in hand with the Law of Attraction to attract to you the objects of your thoughts. So, provided that you have clearly defined goals and you don't have any concflicting thought patterns, then you will successfully start manifesting the things that you desire into your life!

Best wishes

[aabbcc]

For the most part, I simply put my intention out into the Universes, and then I try to forget about it and go on with my life. I find this method to be quite successful, probably because by not thinking about it a lot, I don't get attached to the outcome and I'm not always wondering where is it? why don't I have it yet? I rarely do visualizations.

Lately, I've been 'telling a new story' and experimenting with affirmations.

I'm with you Mcfly ... the "neediness" feeling/energy that a person gives off is a resistance. You "need" .... for a reason. As the saying goes what you resist persists!!!

Meta - unforunately there is no "formula" approach to The Process. Its an evolutionary thing WITHIN you. However what everyone else has said is true.

As you are learning this then my advice is start small ... don't use The Process for something HUGE in your life, wait until you start seeing smaller things happen and then you know.

A ROUGH guide would be something like ...

1.) Decide on something ("small" to start) to manifest
2.) Find somewhere quiet with no distractions and imagine/visualise that "thing" in your life. What does it FEEL like that you have it NOW in your life? Can you taste it, hear it, touch it etc? Do this from an "open" heart, mind and soul FOR THE GREATER GOOD! Do this in as much DETAIL as you can, and don't force it. KNOW and BELIEVE that its ALREADY INSIDE of you, you are NOT reaching OUTSIDE of yourself for this thing, but you are pulling it out FROM INSIDE you, its already part of you.
3.) All this should help you FEEL good/great about it ... if you feel neutral OR feel bad, its not what you TRULY desire. Change parts of the manifestation or discard the whole thing if thats the case.
4.) Again in a quiet area write down on paper what your desire is as in point 2.
5.) DETACH from your manifestation ... yes ... let it go. You have done your "job", you have asked for it. Do not attach your sticky/needy feelings to it. KNOW that its coming.
5.) Wait for "Alpha" synchs ... your IPOD playing 1 or more tunes about the subject matter of your manifestation, a chance meeting in a store where a stranger talks to you and gives you a "flash of inspiration", a TV advert advertising the very thing you are desiring etc etc.
6.) Be patient and don't "hope" for it. NOW if you can quieten your mind from all the voices of saying what you must do, measuring, calculating etc, and try and listen to your "gentle" voice inside (your intuition) and FOLLOW whatever THAT little voice says to do, go, etc. Learn to separate your logical mind from your heart/gut instinct etc. Sometimes you must take action, even if that action is DO NOTHING. You will FEEL what you must do, say etc at the CORRECT time.
7.) Feel gratitude for ALL you have NOW (including your desire, as you ALREADY have it). When you see the synchs of OTHER people having the desire that you are manifesting, look and FEEL how wonderful it is FOR THEM and how wonderful it is FOR YOU.
8.) This is where most people give up on The Process and "doubt" it. The "Beta" synchs. This is when the manifestation is almost there, but depending on what you want, it will take some "time". Keep following the above couple of points.

As I say there is no formula, but you will FEEL your way and WHEN all your desires come true then you will understand (the thing is your life IS ALREADY what you have manifested, but it may not be your consicous minds decision!!! - thats another subject!!)

Enjoy the journey bud

I totally agree if you need it your chances of manifesting can be slim. Why? Simply because you are focusing on your neediness, which is the lack part of the equation. Instead you have to focus on what you do WANT, which is more towards the abundance side of the equation. You must think about what you want, rather than what you don't have, otherwise you will always manifest more of what you don't have.

Now, if you really need something and also really want it at the same time and you keep your thoughts positive and create a burning desire to achieve what you want, then this is also a great place to be in order to consciously create the object of your desire. As long as you focus on increasing your wanting, then the scales will be tipped in your favour.

[MacFly]

This is where I'm stucked with LoA.

I don't really know how to intend and don't want at the same time. Makes no sense to me. One implies the absence of the other.

my experience tell me that a simple thought, which you know is a lie deeper, doesn't have any effect on reality. If I want something, it's pointless to think "i don't NEED it, I just want it".

"Want" and "need" are just words. Don't forget. They are words, invented by people.

the deeper intelligence in me simply knows that I need it, and the "i-dont-need-it" attitude is still fueled by the very need of it.

but I still don't say that LoA is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, because a LOT of times my thoughts manifest. Thoughts that I just have and forget.

These aren't really "important things". I have a simple thought about violence, and a few seconds later I see some people heavily arguing on the street with a violent attitude.

this is why I act a lil'bit skeptical about people who praises LoA, because I do know it is not the full story. Every thought does not manifest.

i know what you are saying - you are talking about one of the most difficult parts of Loa Process:the letting go part.

all that is based on...Faith,not Hope or wantings.

once you have Faith,you know you intended sth;then you know you asked it to be manifested,so that the Universe know what tou asked;and then comes the part that you have to accept and be grateful.

then,it will come the receiving part.

So,first you have to build your Faith in order tõ do the whole process.

read this chapter Iv of the GAME OF LIFE - that i gave in other thread - helped me a lot to understand.

[MacFly]

I accept what you say. I do know that I was a lil'bit impatient using LoA. I couldn't really "leave" it. My mind always wanted to think again, what if this, what if that, a new thought came, try it in another way, etc..

thank you for the answer

[Diandra25]

you are talking to one of the most (former)worried persons that ever existed on this Earth!

Yup - i was the one who invented things to worry about,if i didnt had anything to worry!


that is why for me,that is the difficlut part - i improved a lot really.But the letting go,will gonna take a bit time...

haha.. sounds familiar.

when I realized how I create things to feel wrong...

Mcfly - you are spot on they are just words .. need and want. But its the feeling behind them.

Using your example the violence that you manifest comes because you don't FEEL you need it, you just want it.

The "needy", "sticky", "clingy" neediness that comes with needing is the incorrect energy to manifestation. This is the resistance.

When you have the feeling of "wanting" but you can detach ... it comes.

[marioguitarlessons]

I've experienced much better results when focusing on one intention at a time. I intend once a day, laying in bed before going to sleep and I focus on one intention only.

First I visualize the goal, then I believe myself having achieved this goal.

Finally I do an exercise of desiring other people's intentions to manifest. I focus on my friends, family, neighbors and everyone that surrounds me and I visualize them having succeeded at their manifestation. This last thing has a lot to do with the "Polarity" that Steve talks about and it has brought tremendous results for me.

Take care all!

Hi MacFly,

Diandra25 always has wonderful insight. I just wanted to add my 2 cents....

I was also stuck here for the longest time. I couldn't figure out how not to need, when I did....

Time helped. I stopped looking at the things that made me feel the need. I really worked at clearing any "needy" emotions. (Sedona and Ho'oponopono). After a bit, I realized that things were not as imminent or pressing as I had thought. This gave me a little emotional space.

And then things started to get better. Once things started to get better, it was easier to have Faith.

Now, I know, that nothing bad comes into my life that I have not invited. I have seen it over and over. I'm a believer.... And, I've seen things turn around when I was able to change my attitude/belief/vibrations quickly enough.

[MacFly]

for me, the most incredible thing about the mind is..

how can things HIDE in you. you think you do everything good, no problem and suddenly (when you are real down and fed up), you realize that you have this thought constantly, doing this and that everyday by fear, acting like that because of that event that happened 15 years ago

but before, you REALLY thought that nothing is wrong. and when you wake up, and realize how much suffer you created for NOTHING, you can't even imagine how you been so crazy and unconscious
