Ep. 37: How To Manifest The Shit Out Of Life

As the end of 2020 approaches many of us are ready to turn the page on this year and start anew. And it’s time to start fresh and look ahead to what you want and how to make that happen. And in this episode I want to tell you just how to do that. How to not only turn the page on last year and set new intentions for 2021, but also to keep your intentions strong as motivation fades after a few weeks or months. Too often in life, we’ve stopped dreaming. Or if we have dreams we dismiss them as impractical or impossible. We feel weighed down by responsibilities or what other people might think. Or our own habits, fears, limiting beliefs and assumptions of what is achievable, appropriate or allowed stops us in our tracks. My goal is to get you centered on what lights you up, fires up your imagination and brings you joy. To change what’s weighing you down because you deserve to feel happy and fulfilled. We think it’s our busy schedules or responsibilities that get in our way, but it’s not that. The biggest thing that stops us from achieving our dreams is ourselves. Our fears, our limiting beliefs and our negative self-talk. Here’s what you need to do to manifest the shit out of life: #1. Replace your negative thoughts and limiting beliefs with new, positive affirmations. Repetition becomes reality. What you look at everyday, the media you consume, the people you interact with most every day and what you whisper to yourself matters. Turn your most repeated negative, inner critic thoughts inside out, find the opposite affirmation and repeat it often. You can retrain your brain from pessimism to optimism, from feeling powerless to knowing that you are able to achieve anything you want. You can manifest the shit out of life. #2. Create a vision board to keep your goals and dreams front and center. Vision Boards are a powerful tool to bring clarity to what you want to experience in life. A vision board will keep you focused on who you want to be, where you want to go, and how you want to feel long after willpower and motivation fades. Instead of being dragged down by daily life experiences that could steer you off course, you’ll have a consistent, powerful reminder of your ideal life with your best self. Your vision board will keep your dreams top of mind, so you’re always looking for ways (consciously and subconsciously) to move closer to your goals. Inspiring images and can shape your beliefs, change your self talk and remind you of your goals. #3. Notice what makes you feel good. Sometimes we don’t know how to move forward because we don’t even know what we want. I’ve got good news. It’s actually more important to know what makes you feel good than what you want to achieve. So your job is to pay attention to how different people, places, ideas, things, activities and dreams make you feel. Find the ones that light you up and follow them. They’re the divine breadcrumbs that will lead you somewhere amazing. #4. Choose the people you spend time with carefully. The more time you spend with people who light you up, encourage you, see the best version of you and are doing things you want to be doing, the better. People you admire, inspiring voices that make you think and dream bigger and make you feel excited about life and it’s possibilities. Some people hold you back and others can pull you forward. They can drag you down or lift you up. The people you surround yourself with shape who you are and what you believe you can achieve. People who discourage you, tell you your dreams are unrealistic or have a negative or pessimistic view of life will keep you stuck. You can't hang out with negative people and expect to have a positive life. Consciously edit which opinions attitudes and life philosophies you allow into your life. They determine what conversations dominate your attention.They affect which attitudes and behaviors you adopt. You begin to think like they think and behave like they behave. Now you’re ready to go out and manifest the shit out of life. My challenge to you is to focus on what you want to feel and do in your life (regardless of what others think) and take small and large steps towards your dreams.
