Years ago, the idea of creating one’s dreams by using the power of intention manifestation was reserved for religious intellectuals and folks on the New Age fringe. Nowadays, the idea of taking charge and creating a full and rich life by tapping the power of the unconscious is becoming a possibility in wider circles. The once opposing worlds of physics and metaphysics are finding some common ground, or at least both sides seem to be realizing that the more truth that is discovered, the more mystery it creates.
Perhaps it isn’t far-fetched to imagine that the power of the subconscious mind has more to do with our reality than we once realized. Even something as simple as preparing the evening meal must first be visualized, mental lists created, imagining the tasks involved and the materials needed. It might be a healthy notion to take responsibility for our own realities in broader areas, to be open to the possibility that we are creating our worlds through our attitudes.
When Napoleon Hill wrote “Think and Grow Rich” in 1937, he had studied the lives of hundreds of successful people and found that the shared thread of their riches involved exercises in affirmations and attitude that have been rewritten in many different ways since. From Shakti Gawain’s “Creative Visualization”, to the more recent explosive success of “The Secret, ” these works share the common theme of achieving one’s goals through developing a winning attitude.
Over-simplified? Maybe. But for many, this seeming simplicity has led to happiness and success, in whatever way those words are defined for them. Not everyone considers monetary gain to be a measure of success. For some, it’s a rich and full family life, or involvement in their communities, or feeling that what they are doing is making a difference in the world. However it is defined, discovering the best way to achieve our goals is a driving force.
Living the good life seems out of reach for many people. What is the key that is missing? There must be more to happiness than the simplistic idea of thinking happy thoughts. If it were that easy, everyone would live the life of their dreams. Still, there is an appeal in the notion that we shape our own destiny.
It’s possible that attaining dreams is out of reach for reasons we cannot see: karma, destiny, the journey of the soul. Possibly it is all meaningless, with no point or difference to be made in spite of one’s efforts. None can say, but humanity does seem to be on a search for deeper meaning and a way to tap into achieving a life that works.
Maybe the key lies in learning to tap into one’s intuition, to take action based on that quiet inner voice. Maybe the key is in developing a positive attitude, even in the face of adversity. Maybe there is no key, and we’re searching for something that doesn’t exist.
Whatever the trick, mastering the art of intention manifestation is an appealing goal. Even if it teaches us nothing more than to feel better about life under any circumstance, that is a positive thing.
