Why Not Learn Abundance?
Learning to see and accept the abundance that exists every day requires participation in the creative process that is called manifesting. That may sound a bit like mumbo jumbo to those who have not heard of this relatively new technique, but it is a technique being used every day that teaches us to embrace all the world has to offer. It is not necessary to 'settle' in life or to simply 'get by'. We don't have to live according to what others expect of us. By embracing the concept that the world has more than enough for everyone, and open ourselves to what's right in front of us, we can manifest abundance in our own lives every day.
Manifesting may be a new concept to you. If so, it is helpful to think of it more as a perspective and outlook than a step-by-step manual such as might be provided by a self-help manual. Manifesting can take you out of the muck and mire of the life you have created and move you toward the life you were meant to live.
Too many people give up too early on their life's goals. They settle for less than they truly want. They are discouraged when met with failure and childhood fantasies slip to the back of their minds. Life is about compromise, there is no question about that. This does not mean that success cannot be found if we stay focused. Thomas Edison was a perfect example of this willingness to persevere. Had he not been so committed to his dream of providing light for the people of the world, we might still be reading by candlelight.
It is true that we must live in the world. We must pay our bills and follow society's norms and rules. Our society is becoming more and more fragmented and demanding expertise in all areas. It makes seeing our dreams more difficult and our vision blurred.
Is finding abundance possible?
As already, stated manifesting is a system or process. The first step on this journey is to be honest and ask what do you really want to manifest. This is quickly followed by an honest assessment of your life, which can be hard. Look around and determine if you are doing what you want or simply what you must to survive. If the latter is the answer you come up with you are going to have to dramatically change the way you see life.
There are many reasons why life today is so confusing but the primary reason is that too many of us are intent on doing what we think we're supposed to do rather than what we really want to do. Living this way causes our confusion and we cannot think clearly. Life becomes about getting by. We can disentangle ourselves from this type of thinking by using the tool of manifestation.
Manifestation helps us find clarity of thinking and illuminates our path. We desperately need this in our world today. Our day to day lives are overwhelming. Just think of what is involved in a simple trip to the grocery store. We have hundreds of decisions to make. Buying a box of cereal involves making our selection from hundreds of options. The same is true of students going to college. There are now hundreds of different majors and even more if you add minors and advanced degrees. When a student graduates from college he is faced with thousands of career and job options in a sea of complicated businesses and industries.
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.
Manifesting requires that we focus on our dreams, not our failures. The more we focus on our mistakes, the less clearly we can see our hopes and dreams and true desires, and the more difficult it is to achieve them. It is essential to think positively and to have confidence in our dreams and abilities. It doesn't matter whether your dreams are personal or professional, it is imperative to believe you can achieve them.
The process of manifesting is very simple.
*Decide what you really want.
*Focus on the positively and only on your successes.
*Once you have decided what it is you want, you must act on your goals. You must take the risks necessary to see your dream come true.
These methods contain a simple message in the end and that is you should never be satisfied with the status quo. We again borrow from the great Thomas Edison who believed a satisfied man was a man who had failed. Edison knew that the human being had to constantly be striving to fulfill their goals. He not only said it, he lived it his entire life. He understood too that life has ups and downs, success and failure, as well as agony and joy. Satisfaction, to his mind, was just another word for indifference. Edison strived his entire life for more and so you should as well.
