AWARENESS, INTENTION & MANIFESTATION

When we hear the term manifest your best life, what comes to mind?  Meditation, incense, scented candles… asking the universe to deliver on your wants and needs.

The term manifestation might seem a little “woo” for some, however, the term manifestation means to manifest what it is that you desire most into your life.  Most people think that manifestation means to manifest, sit and wait for your manifestation to happen, but that’s not how manifestation works… Essentially, when you have the awareness of the intention, in order to be able to “manifest” your goal, you need to do the work to allow the manifestation to occur.

Before we can understand what manifestation is we must first be aware of who the master manifesters are in your life.  Could it be your dog, your cat, your rabbit?  What about your partner?  The truth is that master manifestation is everywhere and the more you look for it, the more you observe this universal law.

As a child you were the observer in your experience manifesting clean clothes, food on your table, being taken to school and learning about life but at the time you didn’t realise you were the master manifester.  Pester power proved dividends for whenever you wanted or needed anything as a child you would often pester your parents to the point they give in and give you what you desire, and deliver the experience of your manifestation to you or not.  If not, you would probably pester more to try and change the outcome of your manifestation and bring your experience to existence.  It’s the same as when a baby cries for attention, food, comfort or whatever reason.  The intention in the cry of the baby alerts the awareness in the parent, delivering the manifestation of “requirement” delivered.

As we grow up and become adult in life, we recognise that pester power no longer works and that the power you once had to pester until your experience has been manifested is gone.  We no longer have the power to just say I want this and *poof* it flashes into existence via the power of manifestation.  No, as life changes so to should we.  The key question is… What do we do to bring forward that which we desire into our experience?  It all starts with understanding that a manifestation is a step-by-step process.

Step 1 – have the AWARENESS of the absence on the manifestation in your life.

Step 2 – set a clear INTENTION of what you want your manifestation to look like and by when your manifestation will be manifested.

Step 3 – in line with your AWARENESS, and your INTENTION to receive your manifestation, set a PLAN that is tangible, has goals and is aligned with your awareness and intention.

Step 4 – understand that AWARENESS + INTENTION + PLAN = SUCCESSFUL MANIFESTATION

Remember when we said that once you had the awareness of what is missing from your life that you need to do the work in order to attract this to you?  The 4 steps above are instrumental.  Manifestation is not sitting on your bum wishing and hoping that something will occur in your life so that your manifestation will occur.  It is the environment that you create by doing the work, which will allow your manifestation to come to you.  Nothing will happen if you do not do the work.

If you find that your manifestation is not occurring in your experience then your formula is broken.  The problem can be either with your AWARENESS, your INTENTION, or with your PLAN.  All three will require your divine focus to bring forth what you want from your MANIFESTATION.  Remember, pester power does not work in the adult world so leave this out of your awareness, intention and plans!

I’ll give you an example in a partnership a romantic relationship.

Step 1 – AWARENESS – I am single and happy and I wish to embrace another’s love into my life.

Step 2 – INTENTION – I am seeking a like-minded individual that can cook, is sensitive to my needs and wants, encourages you to reach your goals, makes you feel good about yourself, loves to watch movies, loves dogs, doesn’t smoke, doesn’t drink, works in a full-time steady job, is creative and makes me laugh and is also good in the bedroom 😉.  I will keep myself in peak physical, mental and emotional health to attract the same-in-like.

Step 3 – PLAN – Everywhere I go I am looking for the perfect person that I hold within my AWARENESS and INTENTION.  I share all the characteristics of the person I am seeking to bring into my experience and have like-minded friends who bring me to community events as I love being sociable.  I am open to receiving loving guidance towards my perfect partner.

See how AWARENESS + INTENTION + PLAN = MANIFESTATION? 

Good… now let’s apply this to another manifestation.

Now let’s look at the journey of becoming a home owner whilst remembering that pester power doesn’t work.

Step 1 – AWARENESS – I am seeking a place that I can call home to move out of my parents home/move out of my rental where I can live life on my terms and bring a beautiful family into the world.

Step 2 – INTENTION – I am seeking a… {INSERT IDEAL HOME HERE}.  This is where you map out exactly what you are looking for.  A 3-bedroom home, 4-bedroom home, a unit?  What area do you want to live in, North, South, East or West?  In the hills, by the beach, close to the city?  What amenities do you want to have around you?  Green open spaces, quiet neighbourhood, older or younger demographic.  Take the time to really map out to your ideal home.

Step 3 – PLAN – How much money do I need to save?  Do I need to clear down my debts?  What can I afford to borrow?   Who will I buy my property from?  Will I purchase established or will I build?  Who do I need in my team that can lead me forward collectively to achieve my goals.  What else do you need to know prior to jumping into your home?  You can’t just want it and expect it to be handed to you, remember – you need to do the work because pester power doesn’t work…

**hint – it is during the planning stage of your home that you should have your budget set, savings goals implemented and a solid understanding of your cashflow.

It is only after you have done the work on having a clear awareness of what you seek, and a well mapped out intention of the type of property you desire that you can implement a plan which will lead you forward to your goals.  Having a plan that is tangible, goals based, realistic in nature and supported by multiple professionals (not just the bank), but inclusive of your mortgage broker, your budget coach, your financial planner is essential for your success.

At the end of the day, you can want and want and want and want and pester all you like, but unless you set for yourself a clear AWARENESS of what you want, have the INTENTION of exactly what you desire, and put a PLAN into place of your desire, your wish will not MANIFEST.

Home ownership is not an easy process, but once you start to understand how to unpack the process and follow the steps it becomes easier.  Why does it become easier?  Well… the more you unpack exactly what you desire by doing the work you are meant to as a home buyer, the more you learn, and the more you learn, the less stressed you feel and the more prepared you are.

If you think manifestation is simple, easy, or hard to do please know that it is.  It is your mindset that creates your world and your perspective within your world will relate to that which you manifest through your journey of awareness, intention and planning.

If you really want something to manifest in your experience and you work your awareness, intention and plan to fruition it will.  The best thing (or worst thing), is that everything you desire in your experience comes down to just one person who holds full control to make it so, and that person is YOU!
