Manifestation is more than the “woo-woo” buzzword that you may see swarming around the internet and plastered on every life coach's website.
The word manifestation, even though it appears to be overused, is actually a science. And, it has proven to be extremely powerful when applied with the right formula. In current times we are finding an overwhelming amount of research to validate the evidence around the science of energetics and manifestation. In fact, Dr. Joe Dispenza describes energy as “an invisible field of energy and information—that exists beyond space and time. Nothing physical or material exists there. It's beyond anything you can perceive with your senses.” In business, understanding the art of manifestation is essential if you want your company to be sustainable. We believe that the energetic formula for manifesting abundance and revenue in your business is driven by the energetics of momentum. Money loves momentum and momentum is magnified by speed. The speed at which you are positively or negatively manifesting in your business is dependent on three elements: awareness, alignment, and activation. As such, we have designed a formula that has been tested and proven to impact how you manifest in your business: Awareness + Alignment + Activation = Abundance
Let’s begin with awareness. The energetics of manifestation begins with the identification of your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Paying attention to what is happening inside you; how you respond to what you want is crucial. You might be saying one thing but your energy says another. The universe will respond to your energy and attitude towards your desires, not just what you say you want. This is how you either attract or repel what you want.
For example, if you say you want to close $20,000 in revenue for the month, but internally you feel anxiety, fear, and scarcity, you will likely repel that desire away because you are tapping into a different frequency than the frequency of abundance (* i.e., $20k in revenue). Paying attention to your limiting beliefs around what you want can help you better understand why you might not be attracting your desires. After you identify your beliefs, you can then move on to step two which is alignment. Alignment is defined by Webster's Dictionary as: “to bring into line”. Falling out of line, in a military setting is literally leaving one's place in the ranks in order to take one's place in a new formation. As entrepreneurs, we are the new formation. We are the risk-takers that formulate new ideas, creations, and innovations so that we can carve the path for others to follow suit and come into their own alignments. This requires us to “fall out” of the pre-conditioned straight line we are taught to walk and instead walk our own line, the unconventional ones that are jagged, broken, and curved. A straight line is not always the best way to reach your objective. At times the messy, jagged off-course lines are usually worth the detour. They reveal unknown territory that gets to be navigated so that we can create our own version of true alignment. As business owners, we must anchor to evidence that what we want is possible. Can you find evidence in areas of your life that support the concept that you can create something specific out of nothing? When you are feeling out of alignment, it’s important to have a toolkit to help you recalibrate and attune your frequency to match the one of what you want. For example, nature, exercise, reading, personal development, music, oils, and other rituals can help you get out of the lower frequency and ground yourself before attaining into one that matches a higher vibration. Your toolkit can be the source to feel better about how you show up when you are manifesting. This can be immediate or it can take time. Either way, a toolkit is essential. Without a toolkit to anchor to, we become a product of the circumstances around us and lose authority over how we feel. Our third step is Action. Merely thinking things into existence does not work. We need to be able to apply our intentions with the equivalent actions. Actions are not always representative of intentions, and they are not created equal. As Tom Bilyou says, “You’re not judged by your intentions, only your actions”.
How are your daily habits and actions supporting your activated alignment? Discipline, consistency, and commitment to the actions regardless of your emotions are what separates the amateurs in entrepreneurship from the pros that create innovative legacy-leaving an impact. You may have the best intentions, yet aligned action is the only thing that creates the manifestation of revenue results and real-life results for those you get to serve. Activated aligned action is the key to abundant manifestation. Energetically, we create momentum through daily discipline and committed action rather than being stuck in the ebb and flow of solely intention. Many entrepreneurs focus on the outcome and instead miss out on the activation that can inspire innovation and creativity. When we are present to the experience and emotional “ups and downs” of the entrepreneurial rollercoaster ride, we can use better discernment when making decisions. What we realize then is that what we desire is actually not the goal, but instead who we become in the process. The paradox here is that when we take on this perspective, it no longer matters whether or not we actually achieve the goal because we have been able to elevate ourselves and our “being” in the process. We are not fully immersed in the energetics of the human experience when we are firmly planted in our comfort zone. Deep emotional activation happens when we are challenged, tested, and thrown into the fire. This is when we are completely in the emotionality of our humanity. This is when we are called to shift and transmute lead into gold. It's a “soul-knowing” that can only occur in the midst of the fire. So if you are challenged, being tested, or uncomfortable instead of perceiving this as a setback, consider this a soul activation for your next level. Be more attuned to your senses, be aware of your responses and reactions, and observe and take note of the subtleties that are growing underfoot. If you are experiencing a lull or lag in your revenue, it is likely that you are missing the first step in the law of energy which states that “energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can be transferred from one form to another.” You can control the energetics of money using the manifestation formula. Your energy is abundant and thus taking committed action will increase momentum and the momentum increases in relation to the number of aligned action steps you take, therefore accelerating the amount of energy created toward your own unique alignment.
In our Business Leadership Mentorship programs, we create a clear path for our clients when implementing the formula Awareness + Alignment + Activation = Abundance.
Manifesting comes easier in the community versus solo. Taking this path by yourself, or “lone-wolfing it” as we call it, is a recipe for disaster. Instead, we encourage business owners to activate through mentorship or guided action. If you’d like to learn more about how you work with us to create abundance in your business, click here.
