“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” – Colin Powell

The Internet abounds with people preaching the Law of Attraction and the consciousness of abundance. At first look, the concept seems to teach that our thoughts alone manifest what we desire into our lives. However, our thought life is only a fraction of what we are. While our ability to visualize gives us a clear mental image of what we would like to manifest, we must also account for our emotional ability to handle receiving what we desire, our physical ability to manage what we receive, and the passion necessary to fully realize what we obtain.
There may not be a one-size-fits all approach to manifesting what we seek in life. Some may start with really feeling the desire in their hearts. Some may start with drafting a plan to achieve their goal. Some may use brute force to get what they want. Some may just pray really hard. Nevertheless, to fully realize what one wants and to fully experience it in your life requires a balance of desire, knowledge, work, and true connection to what you are manifesting.
If you are looking to improve your life, know what changes you are trying to bring about and visualize how your life will be different after the change. Recognize what steps are necessary to bring about the change. Take action on the steps as goals unto themselves, realizing the value of the activity and how it changes you. Finally, realize how your manifestation will affect the rest of your life and make the necessary concessions. Anything you imagine can be made manifest in your life, but understand that you are a big part of the process.
