Be Limitless
How do big bold visions begin? How do you create the future rather than wait around for your life to truly begin?.
Create. Don't Wait.
The Law of Attraction generated a lot of buzz awhile back with the book, The Secret. Then it kinda got debunked and lost momentum.
Yet, the model still exists. I think the problem with The Secret was that it seemed to promote the idea of waiting around for things to happen, but that’s not what the originators of the Law of Attraction said at all.
We don’t have to wait around. It’s a combo of using energy and action, of creating the conditions and then doing things that invite, encourage, create serendipity.
We’re all held back by our ideas of the world, our limiting beliefs, by our thoughts about what’s possible. But, what if your big dream was possible? Wouldn’t it be worth trying to bring it into the world?
Start with an Intention
What do you want to create? Is it a new job? A better world? Better health? Just think about a potential experience you want to have. Tune into the energy of a future you’d like to create. Step into the unknown.
Assign a Letter to It
Assign a capital letter to it. Any letter. Write that letter down on a piece of paper. Think of the letter as a symbol of that specific possibility in your life. Putting it down on paper is important, so don’t skip that.
Draw two squiggly lines around the letter, to represent the energy of the universe.
Get More Detailed About Your Intention
When setting your intention, think about four specific things. For example, I want a new job where I make at least $100k, I have the flexibility to work from home, I work on a team with like-minded people, I travel the world and get paid for it. Don’t include any timeframe at this time.
Feelings. They're Key.
Imagine your future. Really go into it. Imagine how you would feel if you had this. Really feel it in your body.
Write down the emotions you will feel when that intention comes true. For example, free, inspired, connected, joyful, helpful, worthy.
The emotion of gratitude is really important at this stage because gratitude helps you generate the feeling that it has already happened. And, that’s really where you want to be – feeling that your intention has come true. I encourage you to really feel this in your body.
(This exercise actually feels really good. If you’re feeling down or uninspired, using your imagination can flood your body with great feelings. Use your mind for good!)
The Energy of Your Dream
Set up a regular schedule to tune into your dream. Maybe it’s when you wake up in the morning. Wouldn’t that be better than waking up to anxiety or worry about the future?
Go out into the world with the feeling of your future dream already coming true. Become that person. If you lose the energy and notice you’ve slipped back into lack, wishing, worry, yearning, depression, think of your letter.
Use your letter as a shortcut to remembering your dream and your feelings. Just think of your letter and the feelings will come.
Don’t beat yourself up if you forget to do this. But, just make it a practice. As someone who is going through the world as your future self, you’ll send out new energy, feel confident, interact with people differently.
Test and Play
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Go out into the world and experiment with this. Become your future self an dsee what happens. Report back!
Change your energy. Change your life.
Wha'ts Next?
After this, we add some structure to it with the Coaching Model. We’ll take a closer look at this in future posts, but int the meantime, take that first step and make your dream come alive within you. It starts with you.
As always, if you need support or have questions, I’m here as a guide.
P.S. Has this ever happened to you? Everything you read seems to say the same thing. I’m getting that with this framework for creating. It all starts with your future self feeling the way you want to feel ahead of time. A great resource on this is Joe Dispenza and his latest book “Becoming Supernatural”.
