Cherishing the Moment

Secret of Manifestation #2: Cherishing the Moment

This moment can be perfect as it is. We can manifest perfection right here in this moment. We do this by letting go of the stories of the past, or letting go of our attachment to them. They are just stories and we can be curious about them, appreciate them, and enjoy them as such without being attached to the story: In other words, you own your stories rather than your stories owning and controlling you.

So you sit in this moment appreciating all the things you want to appreciate -- the more you appreciate, the more abundant and rich your life will feel. Look around and drink in the moment whatever is there. Maybe you are experiencing some quietness and peacefulness; maybe some people you love are there or close by. You look around you and see the wonderful things in your life – maybe you are in your home – how fortunate you are to have a home and all the things you have brought into your home. Have you brought in things that improve your life, things that you enjoy and give you pleasure?

Recognize that in this very moment, just this moment, right now, all is perfection. Even the challenges are a gift in your life, making you stronger, deepening your compassion for the world, opening your heart and feeling everything in this moment and not being afraid of that. You just feel it. Knowing that you can feel deeply without fear gives you an even stronger recognition of the perfection of this moment. And in that moment, that is what you manifest – perfection.

Visualization

Secret of Manifestation #1: Visualization

"The teachers of The Secret are all aware of the elements you bring into play when you visualize. As you see the picture in your mind and feel it, you are bringing yourself to a place of believing you have it now. You are also implementing trust and faith in the Universe, because you are focusing on the end result and experiencing the feeling of that, without giving any attention whatsoever to "how" it will come about. Your picture in your mind is seeing it as done. Your feelings are seeing it as done. Your mind and your entire state of being are seeing it as already happened. That is the art of visualization.

"You want to do this virtually daily, but it should never be a chore. What's really important to the whole Secret is feeling good. You want to feel exhilarated by this whole process. You want to be high, happy, in tune, as much as possible.

"The 'hows' are the domain of the Universe. It always knows the shortest, quickest, fastest, most harmonious way between you and your dream.

"If you turn it over to the Universe, you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered to you. This is where magic and miracles happen."

The key is to keep your sense perceptions open so that you notice the things that come into your life that will help you move toward your goals. For example: ideas, dreams, feelings, things people say, things you read or see or overhear. Begin to think of all these little things as gifts from the Universe because they are. The more you notice them, the more you will begin to experience synchronicity.
