In this article we’re going to get right into the nitty gritty— Here are the tactics you can apply today to put the law of attraction techniques into practice.

The goal after reading this is for you to manifest some real results by leveraging the law of attraction for manifesting something you genuinely want.  Let’s go ahead and get started.

The Spiritual Law of Attraction: Love

You may recall from the last article, we covered:

  • The fundamentals of manifesting
  • Understanding the law of attraction
  • Following the rules of the law
  • Getting in the right mindset
  • Mental habits that enable manifestation

If you haven’t read the preceding article, I encourage you to go back and read it first. This is all a heart, soul, and mindset game.  You’ll need those fundamentals laid up in the right order to get calibrated.  Otherwise, none of this is going to work.

Even if you’ve already read the last parts of this manifestation series, re-reading them more than once does not hurt and will amplify your newfound abilities.

This is because these words, in this order, work just like a program that runs through your mind and reorients your mindset.  The more you embed these teachings, the more indelible your new mindset will become.  You can actually engineer your own mind this way to wake up the next day and think differently, act differently, and get a different level of results— the exact results you want to manifest.

Manifesting Exercises: Visualize with a ‘Mood Board’

To manifest anything you have to set your frequency and your vibration to a receptive setting. Most people are usually tense and not in the right vibration to tune into what it is that they want to receive.

When that is in order, then you can get to actually manifesting. The best way to get started is to know what your vision is.  You have to understand what it is that you want.

Here’s how: Make a vision board or mood board. You can use a Pinterest board, or whatever your favorite platform is, however you translate what’s in your mind and what’s in your heart onto an external record of it.  To be honest, that’s an act of manifestation itself.  It proves to you that you can take an idea from your mind and convert it into a material form in the external world.

Find pictures online of everything you want to attract into your life and manifest as your reality. Then, start putting them together on your visualization or mood board.

When I made a mood board, I put a house, a guy surfing on a beach, & a pretty lady. Interestingly enough, shortly after making my mood board, I met a pretty lady and we have since become engaged.

In fact, I have realized, manifested, and actualized almost everything on that mood board I made not very long ago.  It feels like only yesterday.

How to Get Motivated Mentally to Manifest Your Desires by Using Your Feelings

Next, I’m going to teach you how to add feeling and emotion to your vision after you’ve manifested it as far as a mood board.  Emotion is energy in motion, and it’s driven by your feeling of desire, and your desires are driven by your reasons.

What you can do now is supplement the mood board with a manifesting journal.  You can either keep a separate journal on a Word doc, or notes on your phone, or you can write comments directly on your mood board (If you used a platform that lets you comment on your photo uploads).

You can also get a physical journal of some kind and write in it old school with a pen or pencil in hand with your mood board open, looking at your vision of what you desire. There’s something very powerfully activating for most people about putting a pen or pencil in hand and scratching the words onto paper with it. There’s even science behind that, as well.

Once you’ve chosen the style of manifesting journal you’ll be using, write whatever comes to mind as you look at your mood board.  Write how you feel about what you desire and why you want it.  Write how you feel about not having it.

Some people cry when they do this part. Legendary investor Charlie Munger, the lifelong partner of Warren Buffet (Who was the richest man in the world for years), made up his mind he would never be without great wealth when his son died.  He chose this because he did not have the money for a doctor.


Here’s a pro tip: Do not let negative vibrations contaminate the manifesting journal. They are low vibration and literally repel what you want, instead of attuning your being to being receptive to it.  Don’t write with a feeling of desperation, frustration, resentment, or greed. Let your positive and true-felt emotions flow out through your journal.

Ironically, a sense of detachment is necessary here.  You want what you desire, but you must not be despondent that you don’t have it, at this moment.  That’s because you have to believe you will have it.  If you are despondent, you don’t believe you will manifest what you desire.

The law of attraction works if you believe in it, and if you believe in what you want, because you know it’s genuine and truly about you, and for you, and not for or because of anyone else.

Aim Low Until You Manifest, Then Adjust Higher and Higher Until You Manifest Everything

“Modern men cannot find God because they will not look low enough.” -C. G. Jung

Now, here’s another essential part of manifesting science, and how the law of attraction actually works in practice.  Unless you’re on that level already with previous smaller manifestations, you cannot just imagine a Lambo with a supermodel holding a bottle of champagne and box of cigars is outside your house right now, about to knock on your door and manifest it this moment.

So, what you have to do is start with manifesting something small.

Start with something that you do not currently have that puts you more in line emotionally with your mood board visualizations and that gets you closer to that reality.  It’s important to note that you should choose something with a viable pathway to attainment.  You don’t have to know what that pathway is or over analyze it, just choose something that feels close enough that you could draw it to you with the law of attraction.

Here’s an example of how to do this.  This is a simple model of a manifestation in practice. Say you want to set out an intention to receive a text message from somebody who you do not usually hear from very often, but not someone you don’t know at all, and have never heard from.

A law of attraction technique, a way to visualize this and feel into it, is to take out your phone and hold it in your hand.  Close your eyes, sit back, take a deep breath, slow down the flow of your thoughts and feelings, and be still.

Once you’re still and quiet, with your phone still in hand, then, in your mind’s eye, with your eyes closed – Visualize that text message coming in from that person.  Imagine the phone vibrating or ringing, and imagine seeing that notification when you check your phone.

Now’s your chance to become childlike again in your faith by using your imagination to play pretend.  This is 100% play and fun for you. Consider it a way to delight yourself, pretending something positively uplifting and fun is happening. Try and act as if it’s really happening like you were acting it out convincingly for a movie scene, or as a joke to make yourself or your friends laugh.

Go through the whole process.  Visualize opening that message, imagine what you would say in your response, how you would feel, how it would make you sit up in your chair and smile or whatever.  Feel into how the message might make you laugh, something like that.

Now, we’re going to go about our business, refreshed from our meditative exercise, and let the universe do the work for us. It works through some inscrutable force that makes the law of attraction truly operative, repeatable, and usable by anyone who understands it and follows its rules.

What you don’t want to do now is try hard (or even at all) to make it happen.  The fundamental premise and feeling of that approach is that it’s not happening— that you haven’t manifested the text.  If you operate with that as your premise, that’s what you will attract instead, more of not getting that text from that person.  More of the void.

This is the pitfall of the law of attraction and how people can spend a lifetime attracting what they do not desire by operating with the premise that it’s not happening.  The stronger you feel about anything, the more powerfully you will attune toward attracting that reality, whether that’s positively tilted, or negatively.

This is the tricky part about manifesting, and about life in general, as a conscious animal in this world. If you feel you’ve had difficulty manifesting what you want in life, that could be the bug in your system that’s causing it.  It’s very tough to unlearn this mechanism if you’re fully invested in it with strong emotional resolve and repetition.

If that’s you, please reread this series until it’s written into your subconscious scripts, and just see how it will begin to materially and substantially change your life.

By the end of this article, you will learn an incredibly effective method for how to manifest anything that you can desire or come up with in your mind.

That sounds crazy, but this really works.  It’s based on understanding the law of attraction.

The Law of Attraction

This is a law.  It’s a rule.  It is set in stone.  There are no compromises with anything that is a law.  That’s the scientific definition of a law.  There’s no arguing with it.

Everything you do has a cause and effect. Everything that you do has an implication. A key part of understanding this law is: There are no accidents.

So when you abide by the law of attraction, and when you understand the law, it starts working in your favor, just like understanding any other law. If you understand there’s a speed limit, you won’t get speeding tickets.

The Law of Desire

Secondly, there is understanding that you were born to desire. You were born to have desires and to fulfill those desires, and you were born with intentions. Your purpose in life is to fulfill those intentions. You don’t ever have to feel bad about having desire or wanting things.

You don’t have to feel bad about wanting money and prosperity or family or whatever it is. You are born with those innate desires. And that’s what makes you unique. That’s what gives you a creative perspective on things because you have a certain set of preferences that are aligned with the destiny you were born to manifest through the law of attraction.

Those preferences speak to you by turning into your desires, and as desire, literal patterns of energy that you can feel, send vibrations into the universe, and that the universe sends energy back to you that reflects your desires through manifestation.

The Reason for Emotions

Thirdly, trusting your emotions is necessary to manifest what you want. You have to understand that your emotions are your guidance system. They help you to know where you are and where you’re going. They’re like the navigation system for the human machine.

They’re naturally configured in a way that puts us on the right path automatically when we are in tune with them.  Gut instinct.  Intuition.  How we feel about things.  This is what determines the correct direction that we should be taking. That’s the direction that is most in alignment with our body, our mind, and our soul.

That’s where the gut instinct comes from. It’s the physical, the spiritual, and the mental components working together with us at the center of it all. And when those are all aligned, that’s when things start happening, when we know the favor of the universe.

The Nature of Manifestation

When you are manifesting, the heightened states are the most powerful time to be manifesting. So, when you are excited, when you’re feeling very positive, if you send out those rockets of desire (As the book calls them) that’s when manifestation is strongest.  These are the moments where you are in a high state of receiving, and when you’re feeling the most optimistic and positive.

There’s a timely component to it, as well.

The mindset is everything because the mind is what calibrates our heart’s desires with the rest of the laws of nature.  We use our mind like a tuning fork, to calibrate our body and soul.  And the mind is so powerful, so vast, and complex, that our mind calibrates itself, too.

So, the mind and its mindset is the crux of all this manifestational ability.  To manifest what you desire, you have to have the right mindset.  If you don’t, things will not feel good, or they won’t feel right.  When things are not feeling good, that is a sign of resistance, and that means that you are resisting what is supposed to be coming your way.

Negative Patterns

For example, let’s just say that you are frustrated because you don’t have enough money coming in to pay the bills.  You try being angry and then you get your belt loop caught on a door handle, stub your toe, and then you get into your car and have a fender bender.

Those are all results of resisting, instead of just allowing and saying, “I trust that the universe will bring abundance my way, money into my account and I don’t need to panic or freak out or anything”.

That’s just a mindset habit, you can train your brain and body to feel.  Unfortunately, there are many people who live in unsavory, negative feedback loops, perpetually.  Or, arguably even worse than that, maybe they live in a numb state of “unfeeling”, where they don’t actually notice their emotions anymore, or hardly feel them at all.

Let me remind you that your vision will ultimately manifest, whether you like it or not.  It’s a law of nature.  So you need to be clear on your vision.  Now, getting clear on your vision is kind of the hard part, right?


What Do You Want?

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart.  One who looks outside, dreams.  One who looks inside, awakes.” -C. G. Jung

A lot of people don’t know what they want and people come to me all the time who are like that. They say, “Hey, I’m stuck in a rut.  I don’t know where to go.  I don’t know what to do next. I’m not sure what I want.”

So, that is where you have to peel the layers back, unravel the onion, and be introspective.  Go take a real look inside yourself.

Some of the best ways to be introspective are journaling, meditation, and talking with friends that you trust.  Lean into the people you know who are non-judgmental.  Sooner or later, you will have somebody who’s going to ask the right questions.  And then you give them the answer, your answer.

Maybe they challenge it and ask why again, and again, and again.  And again, until you finally get to the heart of what’s actually happening.  Not until then will you begin to fight for yourself and find your heart.

(Pro Tip: If you don’t have anyone like that, and you’re too shy, or can’t talk to someone else for whatever reason – watch a movie or listen to a music album critically— Do this with your own questions and life situation in mind, and try to guess who all the characters are or what the lyrics are about.)

Ever noticed how everyone seems to have the same car you’re driving soon after you’ve bought it? Well, that’s a little microcosm of how manifesting works.  Beyond that, manifesting is a much broader idea that involves connecting with your spiritual self, getting what you want out of life, and realizing your dreams.

Manifesting has helped people like Tony Robbins persevere through a turbulent upbringing to become highly influential and successful.  So whether you’re just starting out, already successful, or down on your luck and deep in debt, we are eager to teach you how to strategically manifest anything you want.

My first experience with manifesting

Three years ago, I wanted to get a Mercedes G Class since I’d spent plenty of time customizing cars with my dad, and I had developed a deep love for them.  Now, remember, this car was really expensive, and taking Jay Z’s advice, I realized I couldn’t afford it since I couldn’t buy it twice.

I didn’t want to lease it, either, so I asked my neighbor for his opinion on getting a G Wagon (He already had the exact model I wanted).  He eventually let me test drive it, and this experience got me in touch with my inner self, as I realized that the car was bringing me the joy I expected.

After returning it, I went online and found one with the exact specifications I wanted; Matte, dark gun-metal gray, with the bigger upgraded tires.  It was also in my price range, which saved me from the stress of dealing with a car salesperson.  Although I still didn’t have all the money, I unexpectedly closed a great deal at work shortly after.  This led me to take my girlfriend to San Francisco so we could get the car.

We’d only been together a few months, but we made the most of this trip after getting the car.  We drove the immaculate California coast, Carmel, and ended up in Big Sur.  In the most remote chances, we found an excellent and affordable room late at night (The area is a very popular tourist destination).  What was about to be an uncertain night, spent in the car with no gas, quickly turned into a serendipitous series of events.

We woke up comfortably in an exquisite room, at a picturesque boutique hotel, with a breathtaking view of the ocean.  We even went to a black sand beach, hiked, and tasted local wines.  We quite literally fell in love.

Guidance in manifesting

One of the fundamental materials that guided me at the start of my manifesting journey is a book by Esther and Jerry Hicks about learning to manifest your desires.  I’ve read it multiple times and digested its core message with my partner, and we both believe that you get what you think about, whether you want it or not.

This book will encourage you to get in touch with your feminine side and be more aware of your feelings.  You’ll learn to pay attention to what feels good, natural and in tune, and you can start practicing this approach before you even finish the book.

Another book I’d like to share with you is “The Secret,” which I heard about through Rob Dyrdek.  You can put on its audiobook before you sleep, so you reprogram your mind to think from a state of abundance and positivity.  This will help you wake up in the mood to win.

With Esther and Jerry, an enlightening encounter with a healer in Arizona during the eighties propelled them into a spiritual experience, which enabled them to channel the voice of Abraham.  I specifically recall a quote from them about how thinking more about something makes you vibrate like it, which makes you attract it more.

For instance, I thought more and more about having the car and eventually got it.  If I’d spent more time thinking about how I don’t have the car, I would keep not having the car.  So, on that note, let me walk you threw the steps to take before you start manifesting:

Understand the Law of Attraction

The law of attraction emphasizes that whatever you put your attention to through thought or desire eventually becomes your reality.  You have to think of it as a recipe. Every intention, desire, thought, feeling, or emotion is an ingredient.

If you don’t possess and use the ingredients, your meal won’t turn out as you wanted.  Want a sweet cake?  Then use sugar instead of salt when you’re baking. “The Secret”actually reiterates this, though from a different viewpoint.

Know your purpose

We all have desires and preferences, but there’s that one thing that you’re meant to do. It’s what you need to figure out because it spurs your creativity and makes your life more dynamic. So if your preferences differ from those of someone else, it’s not necessarily bad.

It probably means that you are on different paths and don’t need to collaborate with them. Instead, your purpose gives you direction and helps you avoid wasting time and effort on what won’t ultimately get you closer to your destination.

Trust your emotions

This modern world with all sorts of cold and empty targets can have you focusing on the wrong things. You obsess about technical performance indicators, finances and other notions that don’t really say much about whether you’re a good or bad person.

This is why it is vital to give this alpha masculine side a break and listen to the subtler voice carried by your emotions.  If something doesn’t feel right, even if it gets you the result, it might destroy you.

Luckily, the literature mentioned above can teach you how to move up the emotional spectrum and gradually let go of negativity and insecurity.  Consequently, you’ll no longer be ruled by vanity, and you can stop trying to impress people who don’t care.

Treasure heightened states

Lastly, you should always note the moments when you’re extremely happy and thankful. These are the times when your mind is most likely to point you towards what you can do to feel delighted more often.

So when you are soaked in massive positivity, visualize what you want in your future, do some journaling, and draw on your whiteboard or whatever medium you use when brainstorming.

We’ve covered a lot in this piece, and there’s definitely more to come, like the mindstate, seven habits and the actual manifestation process, so make sure you read on.
