The Universe Doesn't Give You What You Want – It Gives You Who You Are Being

There are a lot of misconceptions about manifestation, and one of the biggest ones is that once you declare something to the universe and “hand it over,” then the universe is lining it up and bringing it to you in divine timing. So the waiting game begins. It sounds a bit like, “It’s all good. The universe knows what I want. My dream home, business, man, money, body, they are all coming. I just have to be patient and wait for divine timing.”

Sorry. Nope. Not happening. The universe is NOT bringing you what you want. The universe/God/Source energy (whatever you like to call it) doesn't speak English, or any other language for that matter. It speaks vibration. We live in a vibrational universe.


Put your hand under a microscope that's powerful enough, and you’ll see that you are literally vibrating. Your cells are always moving. You are in a constant state of vibration.


So, what the heck is the universe delivering into your experience?? What you are a match to, that's what. What you are actually asking for, which is often not what you are wanting. It’s delivering what you are focusing on, thinking about, believing, expecting. How you feel about what you want is your indication of what is coming.


Want to double the income in your business in the next 2 months? Find the man of your dreams? Manifest your dream home? Cool. It can be yours. We can literally create anything we want. Anything. How do you feel about that? Are you excited, expectant, super pumped for the next level knowing that it's already yours and expecting it all to unfold? Or are you in doubt, worrying, stressing, wondering how the heck you are going to make that happen, and feeling like it's hard?


The universe is simply reflecting to you who you are being. Are you showing up as the woman that already has the next level in her business/ dream man/ dream home? Are you feeling like her, acting like her, expecting results like her? Or are you looking for evidence that things are working out before you believe it’s possible?


If you’re not creating what you want in your life, then you are not a match to receiving it. Period. You haven't been embodying it. The universe is not testing you, and there is no divine timing. Divine timing is just when you DECIDE. No one or nothing else is holding it back from you while you jump through hoops to prove yourself.


When you decide you are going all in, when you decide what you are having, and when you decide you are letting go of all of the stories/thoughts/beliefs that tell you why you can't have it, that is when it comes.


If you want a different reality, you need to make some powerful decisions and decide what you are a match to, and when you do that, your reality can shift overnight.


Here’s one example of how this played out in my life before I even knew about manifestation. After 5 years of being single, attracting the wrong sort of guys, focusing on what wasn't working, and believing there were “no good ones left,” I made 1 powerful decision, and my reality completely shifted within 6 weeks.


I decided, of course, I could find love. Of course, in a country of 28 million people, there had to be one guy that was a match for me. Of course, I was worthy of love. Of course, an amazing guy would want to be with me. Of course. Of course. Of course.


I shifted my focus, my energy, and how I showed up. I took some different actions. I joined a dating site. I went on one date. I met an amazing man. Two dates in, we both knew. Four weeks in, we had planned a trip to New York together. Three months in, we were talking about having babies. One year in, we moved in together. Eight years later, one beautiful little girl, and many adventures later, we are still very much in love.


When you embody the version of you that already has what you desire, your reality completely shifts. You change your point of attraction. You vibrate a new energy, and the universe delivers what you are a match to.


The universe will give you what you are thinking, feeling, and focusing on every single time.


Here’s your work:

  • Decide what you want.

  • Clear any resistance (limiting thoughts/beliefs/stories).

  • Embody the next level version of you and show up as her now.

  • Take inspired action.

The universe will deliver. Every. Single. Time.


If you’re ready to embody the next-level version of yourself and manifest your desires now, then my Becoming ALL of you mini-training bundle will do exactly that. Access it here.
