8 Ways to Manifest Your New Year’s Resolutions into Reality

“What you think. And what you feel. And what manifests is always a match, every single time. No exception.” Esther Hicks.

Setting resolutions and intentions at the beginning of a New Year is common. Unfortunately, so is giving up. Here are 8 ways to manifest your resolutions into reality.

1. Understand your goal: It’s important to understand your belief system, negative thoughts and feelings behind why you’re making a goal in the first place. Is it a goal you really want or is it someone else’s version of you? Be clear and honest. If you’re not sure, sit with the question for a few days. Don’t try to figure it out with your head, rather get in touch with your feelings and intuition.

2. Set realistic goals: It’s great to dream big. However, when setting goals, try to start small and make more manageable goals. In the end, it’ll get you to your bigger dream faster. Otherwise, you can get discouraged and give up. You can always increase it. Remember, you don’t have to wait another year make a new goal.

3. Visualize what you want: Make it as real as possible. Feel it. See it. Taste it. Your feelings are directing the universe to what you want. If you set a goal, but don’t really think it’s possible, you won’t achieve it. Focus on what it’ll feel like when the goal is accomplished. This is one of the most important steps. You can push as hard as you can, but ultimately, if you don’t feel it, you are pushing against the very thing you want. Your feelings tell the universe what you desire. If it’s negative, that’s what you’ll get.

4. Be kind to yourself: Don’t put yourself down for being overweight or having a low bank account. Kicking someone when their down, only contributes to depression, inaction and giving up. You can assess your progress, but don’t punish yourself or put yourself down. You’ll cut off the flow. Be the motivational coach you need.

5. Stay positive and monitor your thoughts: Morning meditation is a good time to get your feelings in alignment with what you want. During the day, if you realize that you haven’t been positive, explore why and make changes immediately. Swap a negative thought with a positive one. If it’s hard to let go of negative thoughts, bring up the feeling of how it’ll will feel when the goal is met. Stay in this high vibration.

6. Be flexible and listen to your Intuition: Listen to your intuition. It will guide you. If you’re in alignment with your thoughts, feelings and beliefs, what you need will show up. However, you have to let go of how you’ll actually get there. Trust the magnetic force that will pull you in the direction you need to go. It might be in a different direction than planned, so be flexible and always go with the flow.

7. Take action: Once you’ve done all the above, then take action. Start small. You don’t have to do it all in one day, but move forward. Once you get the ball rolling, momentum will kick in and exactly what you’ll need will show up.

8. Be grateful: No matter what, appreciate where you are right now. Problems are really opportunities. Discover the lesson or the silver lining. Be at peace with what you want to change. Otherwise, you’ll keep attracting the same negative outcome.

When you’re thoughts, feelings and beliefs are in alignment with your goals, you’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish. More important, you’ll be blown away at how empowered you’ll feel!
