A Case for Manifesting: My Personal Journey
A Case for Manifesting: My Personal Journey | I always considered myself a realist vs a dreamer - especially in my personal life - allowing momentum, opportunities, and circumstances to lead me down my path. That was until 2021, the tail-end of covid. I found myself dreaming of a different life.
My Vision: I was determined to trade my focus from success to fulfillment and do more of what made me happy - both personally and professionally.
My Benchmarks: Move from LA, where I had lived for over a decade, to Florida to be closer to my family. Start a consulting business, own my time, and develop a dynamic value proposition that showcased my strengths.
What happened next was WILD... Creating this concrete Vision with Benchmarks initiated a journey of Intention. This meant that every choice I made and every opportunity I pursued (or chose not to pursue) was led by Intention. Even when faced with choices that seemed fun, easy, smart, or convenient - if they did not align, then I did not pursue. Month by month, I found that my Vision was Manifesting into my reality.
Since then, I have not only practiced Manifesting consistently, but it has become part of my mission in life to encourage those around me to start Manifesting now. I even started the YSA Manifestation Cohort in January 2024, which became an impactful community for members to grow, share, and support one another.
Why you should manifest: Do you think it is smart for businesses to have a strategic plan? Manifesting goes beyond hocus pocus – you are creating a strategic plan for your life. You are creating your roadmap - and the clearer this roadmap is, the easier it becomes to navigate.
Why you may not have manifested until now: Many people are simply unfamiliar with the concept and power of it. Manifesting can also be uncomfortable - it takes vulnerability, which can be tough! This fear of failure or letdown leads many people to opt for a lifestyle where no expectation means no disappointment (for yourself or others). Manifesting your future takes courage and confidence - you will be rewarded for overcoming any roadblocks or self-doubt in the process.
How to start manifesting: As the new year quickly approaches, it is the perfect time to begin manifesting! I will share a how-to article on LinkedIn this week diving further into my VBI (Vision, Benchmarks, & Intention) Manifestation method and will also have a lot of fun content on the YSA Instagram, celebrating the 7 Days of Manifesting - starting January 2! Stay tuned & stay connected!
