The Power of Holding a Grand Vision

“Reach for the stars. If you fall, you’ll land on the clouds.”

The laws of attraction prove that you attract whatever it is that you invest your energy into. So basically if you think from a place of lack, you experience lack. If you spend a lot of time worrying about things that won’t work, things won’t work.

If you instead focus your energy and attention on what you want to have – as if you already have it – you attract it to happen. Rather than focusing on what you fear or feeling like you’re “so close” to having what you want, you have got to feel that you have it already and act as if it is true right now. As you do this, things fall into place in miraculous ways. We’ve all experienced glimpses of it. Some of us experience it daily. Honestly, we can’t even perceive the infinite ways the universe can give us something that we want. Why limit our avenues of reception by attempting to perceive that we know how something will come to us? Rather than contributing to that silly practice, simply let it go and trust.

First figure out what is it that is your grandest vision? What would be YOUR ultimate life?

Take a week or a month to think about it. Even if you have thought about it before, do it again. What would you LOVE to do in this life? How would you feel to do just that? Can you think bigger? What is your ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE?

Be as specific as you can. Instead of, “happy, fun, abundant”, use details such as, “living in a beach house, traveling to Europe every year, with $1 million in savings and $20,000 rolling in every month.”

Then start to live from there, RIGHT NOW. Think every thought as if that is your life and act accordingly. This is the most challenging part. You will find that you tend to be drawn back into limited thinking and lack. Your inner critic may promptly show up for this. However, when this happens just take a moment out and expand back into the unlimited possibilities.

Look for the opportunities in your daily life to advance toward your dreams. They are often in front of our eyes, but we don’t see them because we think they will look much different. You could meet a woman today at the grocery store who wants to invest in you and what you're doing. These things happen when you open your mind and attract them with your being.

Keep your eyes open and be in the moment as much as you can. I start off my morning making sure that I step into my day in this open presence and being – before doing anything else. I prefer to live my whole day that way. It’s not natural, but with intent and determination, it is my daily experience.

Keep reminders out that help guide you back into unlimited thinking and being. They can be post-it notes with keywords, sacred treasures on your altar, or keepsakes that remind you of amazing moments. Keep these things out and about where you will run into them throughout the day to remind you of being in that infinite place, from within. Music is also a wonderful tool to use to keep you in an expansive mindset.

And most of all, have fun every step of the way. If you aren't, simply tune into the opportunity that is there to do so.
