Do you make these mistakes in manifesting?
Time and time again I hear from good people who are fed up, frustrated, and just plain discouraged about their ability to reliably manifest what they want in life.
Do you ever feel like that?
If so, you’re not alone. And even if you’ve gotten your brain wrapped around the concept of the Law of Attraction and are whole-hearted in your manifesting efforts–you still may have the nagging feeling you’re not quite hitting with all cylinders.
That’s why I’d suggest you take a few minutes to watch this…
For one thing, you’ll hear from none other than Bob Proctor–one of the key people from The Secret. Bob has been at this a long time–decades in fact–and he’s pretty much got the whole visualization thing dialed in.
One of the things Bob talks about are some of the most common misconceptions about visualization, and boy can I relate.
I remember when I first began exploring the Law of Attraction. I pretty much made ALL of these mistakes! For example…
1.You make some effort to practice visualizations for a few days–but nothing happens. So you decide it’s a waste of time and stop. And guess what? Nothing happens. Duh.
2. You think you have to spend hours every day intensely focused on the things you want most. You settle down in the Lazy Boy and have at it–and you either fall asleep, get a pounding headache, or start thinking about a problem you’re having at work. What a hassle–no wonder you’ve given up!
3. You’ve painstakingly glued a vision board together and you stare at it every day. You don’t want anyone to know this, but you’re bored. This whole activity is dull as dust and you don’t feel much of anything except distracted.
4. You’re not completely sure visualization will work–so you figure it’s not worth trying unless you are 100% certain something wonderful will happen.
In fact, you’ve perfected “why bother” into an art form. Any of these things sound familiar? Well here’s the good news…
Here’s one of my favorite quotes from this video…
“Even if you don’t believe in it–do it anyway. My attitude is: if your way isn’t working, try mine. I’m doing all right. I’m healthy, happy, and I’m wealthy. I earn more money in one hour than I used to in twenty years. So I must know something. And I know that this works.” ~Bob Proctor
I sincerely hope you find this as encouraging as I do–because the thing is, even if you’re not sure visualization will work for you and result in successful manifesting–just do it!
Give it a try and see what happens.
But not for just a day or two–or even a week or two.
What you’ve got to do is make the commitment to spend a few minutes on this every single day–and I do mean EVERY DAY! Maybe even morning and night–but consistently make the effort.
Because according to Bob (and he should know!) it’s the REPETITION of your visualizations that add up to a grand slam eventually.
He explains it all so clearly and much better than I ever could. But it has to do with the repetition creating a new frequency–a new vibration that then changes your actions–and then opens the door to what you want being attracted into your life.
Make sense? You bet it does! And no worries about how to wedge it into your schedule, because you don’t have to spend a lot of time on it either.
Just a few minutes a day will do it IF you do it the right way.
All you have to do is follow the simple strategy Bob explains in this video. It’s easy. And when you do, here’s what happens…
It’s exciting and it’s totally achievable with a very simple shift in your thinking and actions–believe me, I’ve personally experienced how powerful this is and it is truly the key to creating your most perfect destiny.
I don’t want to give away all the goods here–so just take a minute and watch the video OK? In the next ten minutes you could literally have the keys to the kingdom.
To Your Manifesting Success!
That’s what happens when you experience strong emotions.And here’s a hint–those emotions have EVERYTHING to do with creating successful visualizations.
And now Bob is going to explain exactly how you can access that fantastic energy to supercharge your visualizations.

29 things I learned about life and love
1. The more you chase, the more they run. Work on attracting (pulling) people to you instead of chasing after them.
2. Love is not about “finding your other half”. We’ve been misled to think that love is like addition… 1/2 + 1/2 = 1. No, no, no… Love is more like multiplication… so 1/2 * 1/2 = only 1/4. We need to work on ourselves, so we become whole on our own (do not need or rely on someone else to complete us)… when we do that, we begin to attract other individuals that are whole as well… Realize that 1 * 1 = 1
3. If you never ask, the answer is always no.
4. Money is just a means to an end. Sure, it’ll be great to have a lot of money but what we really want isn’t the money in and of itself… what we want is what that money can do for us… what it brings us.
5. There’s no use trying to logically convince a woman. You can’t change a girl’s mind unless you change her mood first. Wait… that works for everyone…
6. Besides “I love you”, the next best thing you can say to someone is “Thank you”. People love to feel appreciated. Why deny them such a wonderful feeling, by withholding two words that don’t cost you anything?
7. Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face… and don’t grab your crotch in public. You’re not Michael Jackson.
8. Facebook isn’t real life. Real life is when you go out and do crazy stuff. Facebook just reminds you of all those crazy stuff you did.
9. If someone slapped you, you get hurt once. If you keep replaying that movie of the person slapping you in your mind over and over again, you get hurt a thousand times. So when is NOW a good time to stop slapping yourself and start letting go?
10. Nobody likes doormats. Nobody respects doormats. Stop agreeing with everything I say. Have an opinion. It’s attractive.
11. Stop looking outwards for external things, people and events to fill up your inner void. You’re looking in the wrong place. The answer you seek is INSIDE.
12. The iphone is great… it can help you do a lot of things. But it can’t give you a hug when you’re feeling down. So stop fiddling with your iphone when you’re out with your friends… unless you’re coding the “hug me when everyone’s gone” application.
13. Spend time with your family. Take your parents out for meals and movies. It doesn’t cost a lot… but it makes them really happy.
14. When you stay EMO, you’re telling the right guy/girl who comes along: “I’m not ready for your love because I’m still upset about what the wrong guy/girl did… run along now… I’ll catch up with you in 20 years tops!”
15. Nobody owes you anything. I repeat… nobody owes you anything!
16. In 5 years, you’ll look back and laugh at the biggest problem you’re having now.
17. If you aren’t happy single, you won’t be happy in a relationship. Another person only magnifies your problems. You’ll project all your unhappiness on the poor guy/girl and he/she is going to leave you and you’ll reaffirm to yourself that you suck. Happiness doesn’t start with someone else… it starts with you.
18. Love yourself first. How can you hate yourself and expect someone else to love you?
19. Stop reading about other people’s success stories and idolizing them and start doing what it is you are supposed to do to create your own success story so others can read about and idolize you.
20. Figure out what you want… otherwise others will just string you along to accomplish what THEY want.
21. Once in a while, do the opposite of what that little voice inside is telling you. See what happens.
22. The media is full of propaganda. Don’t believe everything you come across in the newspapers and on tv.
23. There is no magic pill.
24. Nobody’s zooming in on all your perceived flaws and judging you because of that except yourself. Seriously, most people won’t notice your beer belly until you tell them about it.
25. Don’t always try to be the hero. You can’t help someone who’s not willing to help themselves.
26. Most people equate attention to love… that’s why we’re always doing silly things to get attention.
27. Don’t be so afraid of death that you stop living and going after your dreams
28. We are so used to taking things for granted. Stop, just for a second, to admire the beauty that surrounds you.
29. At the end of the day, no matter what you do, you’ll have critics. Just do what you love and what makes you happy, and be thankful there are people who care enough to talk about you.
