What Exactly Does It Mean To Learn Abundance?
It is very difficult for most of us to understand and accept the concept of abundance in our own lives. We see it in others, but we don't think it applies to us. Or, we may not understand how to make it happen for ourselves. In this article we will talk about the process called 'manifesting'. It is a creative process that opens up the possibility of abundance in everyone's life. There are guidelines for manifesting, but each individual's journey along the path towards abundance is unique.
If you are new to the concept of manifesting it may help you to think of it as a way of thinking and a way of living rather than a set of techniques to follow as most self-help manuals provide. Manifesting is about finding our way through the maze of these difficult times to take hold of our own lives and goals.
Life seems overwhelming to many of us. Our dreams appear to be unobtainable. The hopes of our child lie like dust in the corner of our hearts. Too early in life, many people follow a path that is not their true desire and compromise too often in their life choices. Life is full of choices and sometimes we cannot have what we want. But persistence pays off in the end. All the great people of the world held on to their dreams until they came to fruition. Think of Thomas Edison. Had he not been obsessed with his search for light, we might still be living in the dark.
No one has a special time machine so it is a given that you must live in this modern world with all its constraints. Bills and work must be tended to and of course, you have to follow the rules. The problem is this society is becoming highly specialized and you are supposed to have this one place of special interest and expertise. Not much room for the dreamer in those confines.
Is it possible to change our thinking?
To understand manifesting is to understand that it is a process. It is a process that begins by asking yourself very honestly, what you want. Looking at your life and circumstances is never easy but by taking it one step at a time it is possible. Are you doing what you want to do with your life? Or are you doing what you think you're supposed to be doing? If the answer is the later, it may be time to make a change.
Life seems chaotic and confusing to so many of us these days. We put our energy every day into all those things we think we have to do, or need to do. We get bogged down in the mundane and lost in the chaos. Before long we are merely surviving as we have forgotten how to live. Manifestation can be the tool you need to pull yourself from the chaos.
Manifestation truly can help us seen things more clearly despite the confusing times in which we live. And these are confusing times. Just consider the decision required when simply grocery shopping for everyday items such as cereal. We are faced with hundreds of different options in the cereal aisle alone, not to mention the rest of the store. Going to college requires selecting a major from thousands of majors and minors. When we graduate we have even more options in career and professions available to us.
A common choice that many Americans make when faced with these overwhelming career options, is to just try to make as much money as possible in what they choose to do. They think that if they do that, everything else will take care of itself in time. But it will not and most end up realizing this much later in life after much time has been wasted. Money does not equal fulfillment. It may satisfy your needs for a time, but sooner or later it will leave you feeling empty and looking for something else.
Confidence and positive thinking are a huge part of manifesting, just as they are with most things in life. You must have more than just knowledge of what you want; deep inside you should believe that you could have whatever your goal is. It does not matter whether you are talking about professional or personal happiness and goals the key ingredient is belief. To achieve this you must annihilate all negative thoughts. Make the song ‘accentuate the positive... eliminate the negative' your new mantra. The bottom line is this the more time you spend concentrating on the defeats and failures the harder it is to see your dreams and reach your goals.
These are the simple steps in the manifesting process:
*Decide what you really want.
*Focus on the positively and only on your successes.
*You must act on what you have decided you want. You must take the risks necessary to move toward your goal.
Our man Thomas Edison said 'Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure'. He understood that dreams take work; that being satisfied with what is would never lead us to accomplishing our dreams and creating the life we long to live. He also understood that it is not always a straight and easy path but one often filled with failure as well as success, pain as well as joy. In the end all that really matters is persistence and hope.
