Have you ever tried and tried and tried to get an outcome and that puppy was just illusive? Then you sat back, conceived a new plan, and that plan did not work.

Did you switch gears or put it on the back burner—staying hopeful? It’s no coincidence. January is the perfect time to make success changes.

Anytime is a GOOD Time

January, or anytime really, is the perfect time to create magic! Doing so always shines a light on possibilities. Those possibilities usually include, “What I want different pieces of my life to look like,” or “How can I manifest the legacy life I want?”

Manifesting Divine outcomes happen daily. Have you thought about your forever life? What could that look like?

“The more you see yourself as what you’d like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you’ll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to transform your dream into your reality.” –Wayne Dyer

Manifesting accompanies setting intentions and personal development, which trickles down through every level of life.

What You Think Creates

Are the personal and professional outcomes you live, the ones you design or are they resulting from some action? And that action creates the where did that come from whiplash.

Intentions—those “what we think things” are powerful! They are daily connections guiding you through your day. They force you to focus and align yourself with the desired outcome because they bring awareness, purpose and vision to each new stairstep in achieving The Goal.

They serve as a roadmap to the person you want to become and are the goals you want to achieve. They help you experience this moment, your surroundings, and overcome self-imposed limitations. If you do not believe, you cannot set an intention. Some examples of daily intentions are:

• Today, I intend to eat healthy.

• Today, I intend to be forgiving.

• Today, I intend to do the right thing when no one is watching.

• Today, I intend to enjoy my own company.

• Today, I intend to witness Divinity in everyone.

• Today, I intend to be open to abundance and success.

• Today, I intend to love unconditionally.

The list is endless and personal.

Set Your Tone

In keeping an open mind:

• remember to keep your intention positive—choose less stress and invite inner peace and calmness,

• make sure it can evolve—keep your mind responsive and stop it from getting bored,

• aim for short term—smaller bites are easier to swallow and to stay tuned into than long-term actions.

Make a Plan

You are building a new “habit-muscle”. Be sure to pad your success:

• choose a doable number of intentions to work on each month,

• write in the first person and present tense,

• check in with you and your intentions,

• reflect,

• make them your own.

Here are five steps to set your intention.

1. Slip into the “gap” – enter into meditation, silence the ego-mind and bring stillness.

2. Release your intentions and desires – it’s planting season, be in full awareness. After you plant, release—simply stop thinking about it.

3. Remain centered in a state of restful awareness. Refuse to be influenced by the external forces in your life.

4. Detach from the outcome – live in the wisdom of uncertainty. You have entered into the power of your true Self.

5. Let the Universe handle the details – there are infinite ways for your desires to be filled. They will bloom how and when the season is right.

But I did everything

“Life isn’t happening to you; life is responding to you. Life is your call! Every area of your life is your call. You are the creator of your life. You are the writer of your life story. You are the director of your life movie. You decide what your life will be – by what you give out.” ― Rhonda Byrne

You have set yourself up to design a successful manifested outcome. Yet, you are not seeing results. Blocks are a part of life’s balance. Many work on them and move past them, and no one ever knows.

Know that your blocks are not punishment. You have not done something wrong. Blocks are simply areas in your life, which need to heal and grow through. Once you raise your awareness, you realize you have blocks.

Here are 10 signs you have manifested blocks.

1. You are repeating patterns.

2. You have unexplained overreactions.

3. You feel intense jealousy.

4. You are starting and stopping.

5. You do not really believe you can be – do – or have your desires.

6. You do not know what to do next.

7. You are not changing anything.

8. You are feeling uninspired by life.

9. You are waiting for someone to fix you.

10. You are not making any progress.

Being Honest with Yourself

This part of your success is the researching and decision-making. You have to be honest with yourself.

• Know that you are safe.

• What beliefs do you really have about you and your goal?

• What actions are you willing to take?

Blocks fall in a few categories. Do you see yourself in one, some or all of these?

• Do you feel materialistic, if you achieve your desired goal — recognition, money, life’s blessings, etc?

• You should not want what you want – 1) Who am I trying to impress? 2) Did someone else decide this is what I want? 3) Do I think I’m supposed to have my things/desires?

• Do you believe your worthy? – You have been told as a child you can’t, you don’t want to be disappointed, etc.

• You do not listen to your intuition – that gut feeling screams. You walk on by, taking no action.

• You are not clear about what you want and why you want it. – Without clarity, confusion creates mayhem.

Successful Manifestors Do

“Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.” —Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Success leaves clues. And those who succeed choose to be purposeful. Here are 10 things they do differently.

1. They are working with Universal forces.

2. They believe that anything is possible.

3. They know to trust and surrender.

4. They understand that whatever you put out there comes back to you.

5. They always affirm ‘This or something better’.

6. They master their language.

7. They practice the art of gratitude.

8. They keep good company.

9. They love money.

10. They take time to set intentions.

Knowing what you want is a good thing—The Universe wants you to live in abundance. Setting intentions, taking actions, having aligned beliefs and surrendering allow those outcomes to be yours.
