To Manifest Your Desires….Banish Your Desire.

I’d like to share with you what I think the biggest misunderstanding is that blocks your access to the Law of Attraction and how you can manifest your desires into reality.

It is confusion about the word desire. And this confusion is perpetuated by none other than Napoleon Hill’s masterwork, Think and Grow Rich. Once you get this your ability to manifest what you want goes up a hundredfold.

To get what I mean consider this.

Andrew Carnegie told Napoleon Hill when he gave him the secret to wealth and success that the main thing was having a “definite purpose”. Now this is true, but by the time he wrote his masterwork Hill reworded it to be called developing a “burning desire” and the misunderstanding around this term is likely wreaking havoc with your ability to attract what you want into your life.

Let me explain.

To recap reality mirrors our predominantly held thoughts. Here’s the tricky part…when we desire something do we feel full and abundant now, or do we feel like our happiness lies in the future, and our present is full of lack.

Keep in mind the biblical quote,” For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.”

It is a statement of abundance consciousness versus a lack and poverty consciousness.
Hold in mind a “burning desire” and you are holding in mind what you don’t want i.e., lack and poverty. Wrongly understood to develop a burning desire within oneself creates a poverty consciousness and attracts those circumstances to you.

If you have been frustrated at your inability to achieve prosperity in your life there is good news. You now have a crucial missing piece of the manifestation puzzle….one which took me more than a decade to get for myself.

To finally use the law of attraction correctly and manifest your desires you must learn to live from a state of feeling abundant RIGHT NOW.

From this powerful state of consciousness you then make a decision, a strong resolution even, as to what you will achieve…this is what is meant by having a definite purpose. But it is made without the neediness, the lacking, the desire, the poverty consciousness.

A new car…I think I’ll have that,

a new house….yes please,

I’ll take one for my friend…oh and a soul mate too.

The difference is in your current state of consciousness.

That’s why you hear Esther and Jerry Hicks talking about giving appreciation to everything, or why you hear gurus like Jack Canfield or Wayne Dyer talking about gratitude and writing down what blessings you already have. I endorse and recommend all these to manifest your desires but I also recommend watching your affirmations and visualizations to stop yourself from actually rehearsing the wrong thing.

Here’s what I mean.

When you visualize your goals (you are doing visualizing….right) pay attention to WHEN you feel like the goal is achieved. I find most people unknowingly visualize it as happening in the future…No.. It has already happened.

How does that feel? How do you walk, sit, stand? What do people say to you now? Imagine it has been 2 weeks , or a year, or five years since you manifested your dream if that helps.

To kick it up a notch notice your thoughts and feeling throughout the day. Whenever you notice yourself putting your achievement and success in the future with words like “someday I’ll____”, or “I wish_____”, or “wouldn’t it be nice if I had_____”, then stop and bring it into the present.

The same thing is true with affirmations. You phrase them as if they are here now not in the future. As you do them notice your energy. In your mind are you holding it away from you despite the words of the affirmation? The surest sign of where you’re at is whether you feel grateful and abundant or needy and lacking.

As you notice the difference you will naturally begin to rehearse prosperity consciousness more and more. You will rehearse the right mental patterns and make the law of attraction provide you with riches and abundance.

Always keep this in mind. You will not manifest your dreams into reality until you feel that they are already yours. When you develop this you will have a true prosperity consciousness and you will use the power of mind to create miracles in your life and truly manifest your desires.
