So, I never believed in astrology, God, or even mystical energies that connect us all with the world. I have always been a bit nihilistic about it. Additionally, I was raised by a family of atheists.
However, lately, I have been exploring the world of TikTok (very deeply) and I discovered this whole “manifesting” thing.
Manifesting is essentially a concept about making your dreams come true
If you have a clear vision of what you want to achieve, you just have to believe in it. And to make yourself believe in it, you just have to visualize it and repeat it to yourself as if it has already happened.
Typical sentences to repeat to yourself might include “Making money is easy for me. I can make money every day”, “I am so attractive and pleasant that everybody wants to spend time with me” or “I am so lucky and successful that all the good things come to me like they are attracted to me”.
I never believed in this kind of stuff until I stumbled upon a video of a psychologist saying the same things because it’s just a mindset.
And that’s when it hit me
Now THAT is something I believe in: psychology, mindset, and attitude. Manifesting works because if you believe in your dreams, you start to act like you are actually making them come true.
When I was younger, I thought I needed to have THE great idea to be successful and to be different from everyone else. Now that I’m an adult, I understand that I need to have THOUSANDS of great ideas continuously.
When I was younger, I thought I had to wait for something big to happen to change my life. Now that I’m an adult, I understand that I am the only one who can change my whole life, and I can be my own life-changer.
We have full power over ourselves and our lives
As psychologists say, “You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control what you can do about it”.
That’s when I understood that I had to be a freelancer. I don’t need to beg an employer for a raise or for a little bit of extra free time. Now I have power over the flow of money coming through me and the way I use my own time.
I just had to believe in it.
