You wish to bring about a certain change in your life. However, you may be wondering in the back of your mind, “Does it really work?”

For the majority of us, living in ignorance just causes us to unknowingly attract undesirable things into our lives.

But imagine manifesting your dream job, manifesting your dream house, your perfect partner, your desired level of income, and everything else you desire!

Again, is this really possible? Indeed, it is achievable, and thousands of people—including myself—have manifested their ideal lives and goals and continue to do so.

So today in this post I want to share with you the 10 basic steps to manifest what you want.

What it means to manifest

Using the power of your beliefs and your alignment with the Universe or your true self, manifesting is the process of making what you can envision come to pass.

As they say, “You can hold it in your hands if you can see it in your mind.” Bringing your imagined ideas to life is known as manifestation.

To put it simply, manifesting is the process of making your dreams come true.

And how you can actually manifest something is what I’m going to share. It’s more than just putting out your desires and intentions to the Universe.

So let’s see how you can start manifesting! How to manifest something you want

1. Decide exactly what you wish to manifest.

What is it that you want to manifest in your life? A better job? A beautiful home? A wonderful love life? An increase in income? A strong body?

Get clear on what you want absolutely.

How can the Universe supply you what you want if you don’t know what you want?

However, you should be aware that it is also not about desiring what you want in life because doing so releases a different energy that prevents you from attracting the things you desire.

Just be clear about what you want to do and as explicit as you can.

2. Put it on paper.

Put your vision in writing. Put your intentions in writing. What do you wish to materialize? Put it on paper. Writing down yourvision is a powerful and enjoyable experience. By the end of this year or in five years, write out your vision of yourself.

Put your dreams of the lovely house you will live in or the income you hope to earn in writing. Writing with a lot of emotion is
really crucial.

Write them down with a sense of anticipation that they will come to pass.

But don’t try so hard. Simply write with imagination. For me when I write down my visions it automatically lifts me up.

And as I write excitement and enthusiasm naturally wells up as I truly believe them coming true.

The more you give off a good feeling and the feeling of belief that it will all be true, the universe WILL start to work its magic to make it happen for you!

3. Visualize what you want to manifest

The half of learning how to manifest is learning how to visualize. Most of us have a hard time visualizing. I wouldsay, give yourself time.

Give yourself time, but have a practice for visualization you can come back to daily.

Learning to still your mind is most important for visualization, for a monkey mind can never visualize and imagine the possibilities.

You have to learn to stay still first. This is not as difficult as we think. Simply sit down and do 10 mindful breathingbefore you sit down for visualization.

Then visualize your goals and dreams, and be happy and excited about it. Again, don’t stress about it.

Just see yourself in it. See yourself living it, walking through it, holding it, touching it, seeing it, moving around it, or whatever it might be. But see yourself in it.

It’s easy to visualize when you see a moving picture of yourself. Also, its easy to visualize if you create a vision
board.

But this is not to say that you can visualize only when you sit down. You can visualize anywhere or anytime you
want.

So visualize and daydream, but also live in the present moment.

4. Experience the fulfillment of your dreams.

To manifest is not simply to write down your desires and set out your intentions, and then think you’ve done your
part.

It’s much more. But you have the power with you all along- and that is in your ‘Feelings’. How you feel determines
what you manifest.

Your feelings are what connect your intentions to the Universe because the Universe is a ‘Feeling Universe’

I have only recently understood the power of our feelings and how our feelings are actually the true source of what

we’re attracting and experiencing in our lives.
That is why to get you in the ‘feeling your desires coming true’ state, writing and visualizing are crucial.

5. Pay attention to what you say.

What we speak is our thoughts in voice. When you set out to manifest something in your life, be mindful of what you
speak to yourself and to others.

For example, suppose you’ve written down that you want to get a wonderful job, and you try to visualize yourself in that great job, but if after the interview, someone asks you, ‘How did it go?’

and you say, ‘Oh it was bad.. I am never getting the job!’ just because you’re not confident about yourself, thenyou’re just giving mixed signals to the Universe.

If you say you want a great body and want to get thin, but keep talking and feeling about how fat you are and how you can’t eat anything because you’ll get fat, then you won’t really manifest your desires.

Be mindful of what you speak about what you want to manifest, and also about your life in general.

6. Work on yourself

When you’re new to this whole ‘Law of attraction’ and ‘Manifesting’ thing, it is easy to get too eager to do it right and be impatient, but over the years I have come to realize that it’s all about giving yourself time to first, be the best version of yourself.

Simply asking the Universe what you want and hoping you’ll get it while you complain, while you feel bad about everyone and everything won’t work.

Once the focus shifts to you and what you can do for yourself to be better, the Universe starts to take care of what you want and starts to align things just for you.

7. Focus on your objectives.

Next, you have to work on your goals towards creating your dream life. You have to help the Universe work for you.

Set down your goals and your to-do list. Vision a great future for yourself. Dare to dream big and work on it.

The Universe is watching each of your actions to see whether you’re worthy of it or not. So to manifest the things you desire, you have to feel that you are worthy of receiving them.

Don’t hold doubt that maybe you don’t deserve it.

You deserve everything and you must feel it in you, and feel it enough as you work towards it.

8. Maintain a great quality of life

To manifest, more than anything your life state matters.

Your life state is the energy and enthusiasm that you have in you. Take care of your energy and try to always live with high energy. 

If you feel depleted or burned out, learn to rest and restore your energy.

You cannot manifest something out of your life if you’re always feeling tired, grumpy, annoyed or in a perpetual state of negativity. 

Find and do things that elevate your energy and make you feel good.

When you find yourself in a high life state, take advantage of the good feeling and give off gratitude and ‘feel’ that you are going to receive what you want at the right time.

It’s easy to believe when you’re in a high-life state. This is how you can manifest easily.

9. Express gratitude

Gratitude is not just a one-time thing, where you list down what you’re grateful for at the start of the day or end of the day, and think that you’ve done the work.

Live in gratitude. Say ‘thank you’ often to people and feel it. Say, thank you to water as you get to wash your face in the morning.

How wonderful the greenery is. How wonderful our body is. Take notice and be thankful.

It is a wonderful way to live.

10. Trust and let go

Lastly, just let go and trust that the Universe is working its magic for you.

Don’t be attached to your desires. Attachment brings in impatience.

Your part is just to be clear about what you want
and send the intention to the Universe. You don’t have to keep on repeating.

Simply continue to work on yourself, work on your goals, have a high life state and give gratitude. You have done your part.

Now just let the Universe do its part for you, and trust that it will at the right time
