My Ingredients to Claim a Delicious Life: Become the Change!
Manifestation is all the rage. If we want the life of our dreams, we’re told to visualize. Keep picturing that new job and fantastically amazing relationship and it will come to fruition. Sprinkle in a little bit of positive thinking and then voilà! If it doesn’t work right away, we’re told to be patient and visualize some more. Then frustration sets in, and we beat ourselves up because we must be doing something wrong but can’t figure out what that is. Isn’t this exhausting?!
In my 22 years of teaching seminars, working with clients, and studying these ideas, I’ve realized that we’re missing the main ingredients when it comes to “manifesting” the life we want. We’re essentially trying to just eat the frosting without even baking the cupcakes!
I’d like to invite you to explore a whole new way of claiming your dreams. What if you started with BEING the person who lived the life you want? If you want your outside to change, you need to go within and BECOME the change you want to see in the world. Energy follows reality. You don’t experience reality. You experience your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs about reality. So, if you want to change your reality, you need to start with aligning your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs with the experience you want to create.
When we want something, we’re really looking to feel a certain way rather than have a certain thing. I’m encouraging you to focus on cultivating those feelings and ways of being rather than manifesting the thing. By placing attention only on the results, you lose the true currency meant to flow between yourself and Spirit.
We are all destined to be the best person we can be. You can create the life you want by becoming awake, conscious, empowered, and partnered with the Divine.
Here’s an exercise to help you become the person who lives the life you want.
- First, think of what you want to change in your life and write down your thoughts, feeling, and beliefs about your current experience.
- Next, describe the life you want and the thoughts, feelings, and beliefs you expect to experience by living that dream. How would you feel about yourself if you had that loving relationship? What would you think about life if you were offered a better job? Who would you be if you already had the means to pursue your dreams?
- Now, compare the two descriptions. How can you bring your current thoughts, feelings, and beliefs into synergy with the person who lives the life you want? What actions can you take to make those thoughts, feelings, and beliefs a reality? Remember, you can’t always think your way into your destiny, but you can act your way into a new way of being. Act as if this were true—even if you’re not yet coherent with this idea, the more you act the more your subconscious begins to look for opportunities in your outer world to match what it knows. Then your intuition kicks in and all manner of meaningful coincidences line up to prove you right!

Love it, Colette. And very timely for me.
oooohhhhhhhh, okay – I get that… uhhuh. alright then…
there is work to do…
I love this Colette! So many people are caught up in the law of attraction game of thinking that all they have to do is think their way into having whatever they want….it’s so much more about being before becoming. And, that it is definitely a process to be patient with and allowing yourself to let go and let God!
Goddess Colette!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’ve done it again, you’re giving away the store! Your store of information! This is nothing less than part of your first online class from last week, isn’t it? You mentioned homework from it on last weeks radio show, and this has got to be it!
It’s not easy, as you said, it’s pages and pages of work! I’m still not done, and I started yesterday! Talk about junk coming up and out! Yikes, my goop looks like tar, and all that is in my heart and thought. Now to focus on how I want to be, have all my emotions, thoughts, and beliefs line up with what I really want…how I want to live!
You are no easy teacher, but it’s why I love you and your work, you push and I need that.
Since my Oct. 12 reading with you, I’ve dug myself into a huge hole, so I am using this to get me out. Hahahahah gotta laugh or I’d cry. I learn slowly sometimes.
Thank you sooo much for all you give, and this you’ve given, a very nice freebee indeed!
Peace and Blessings!
Q
It’s not enough to sit idle and rely on affirmations or prayer to create change in your life. Actions ignite change and create windows of opportunity. Our emotions and physical responses are expressions of consciousness. A little movement like spring cleaning your home is enough to encourage momentum.
Great post, Simon.
Unfortunately, banks, creditors, and landlords don’t understand or care about the Law of Attraction and everything that goes with it. A person cannot go to their landlord, creditors, or bank and say, “…I’m waiting on the universe to give me financial freedom, but I must be patient. Apparently I have more internal work to do before I see anything manifest in my life. I’ve sent out resume after resume, attend networking meetings, but haven’t received any interviews. I’m not sure why. May I forward my payments at a later date? How about a hug instead?” It doesn’t work that way. This is why people get frustrated with all of the material that’s written about the Laws; I’m one of those people.
When you keep working on yourself day after day after day and you don’t “physically” see the results (unless you’re working on releasing weight from your body), you become aggravated and frustrated because you’d like to see the manifestations now. Actually, I would have preferred my manifestations two years ago
I’m with you on this Colette. If you’re focusing on using law of
attraction there must also be action. It’s important that we
align the internal and external. Life is delicious when there is
a harmony of key elements you’ve mentioned in this empowering piece.
I’m sharing 5 simple secrets to begin living a delicious life on
a call tomorrow.

Daily Stars with Shelley von Strunckel
www.shelleyvonstrunckel.comObviously you'd rather make decisions on your own than have to bow to the questionable views of others. However unsure you are about the wisdom of their plans, they're actually far more knowledgeable than you imagine. Ask them for explanations. The resulting discussions will be as informative as they are reassuring. By Shelley von Strunckel
Now that Neptune has joined your ruler Venus in the visionary sign of Pisces, you'll find that suddenly your intuition is amazingly clear. While this may not last forever, explore the resulting feelings and perceptions. The resulting insights will come in handy, especially when dealing with impossible people or situations. By Shelley von Strunckel
Often issues are best discussed frankly and openly, and as soon as possible after they arise. However, many pivotal facts are either unknown or misunderstood. That being the case, take it slowly. Say what you must but no more. And remain silent until all the necessary information comes to light. By Shelley von Strunckel
Every once in a while it's important to review what you do with your time and to consider what and who you put first in your life. While you might think you've got your priorities right, give some thought to these matters and you'll realise you're short-changing some and wasting considerable time on others. By Shelley von Strunckel
Sometimes challenging situations involving already rather uptight individuals are best approached with a light touch. While you may think there's nothing funny or humorous to be found, the actual process will cast the proceedings in a fresh perspective. You might even stop taking things quite so seriously, which alone is an achievement. By Shelley von Strunckel
Don't mistake the suggestions made by others that certain once important ventures might need to come to a conclusion as criticism. The fact is, you've been thinking exactly the same yourself, but have been unwilling to acknowledge it. The real problem is your own pride. Tackle that and everything else will be easy. By Shelley von Strunckel
Arrangements you've struggled to organise are falling apart. You can't help but feel that if they matter, you should battle for them. Take a look at the changes going on around you and, as a result, in your own life. These make it inevitable that some of those long-standing arrangements must go. By Shelley von Strunckel
One of the most challenging things for you to admit is that you've been outsmarted. It makes no difference whether the situation in question involves certain individuals or it's the circumstances you're dealing with. Still, not only must you admit that's the case, you're urged to let go of the reins entirely. By Shelley von Strunckel
Being a fire sign, you're superb at surmounting the kind of obstacles many regard as overwhelming. However, one particular situation has thrown even you. Frustrating as this is in the short term, what you learn from the actual process of figuring out ways around these will serve you well in the future. By Shelley von Strunckel
Yet again you've made the mistake of trusting somebody else to do a job for you. Actually, that isn't the problem. They did what was necessary, but not with the care or thoroughness you'd have employed. Which is why you didn't mention it. You unwisely assumed they would be as conscientious as you are. By Shelley von Strunckel
As an Aquarius, although you don't notice it, you're far more interested in what others are both thinking and doing than most. This means that often you understand them better than they do themselves. Bear this in mind now, as you discuss sensitive matters and you'll realise why they seem so lacking in self-awareness. By Shelley von Strunckel
At times progress is marked by new experiences, exciting encounters or achievements. However, the kind of progress you're making could just as well involve recognising that you really must say farewell to certain alliances, activities or even goals. This may seem unfair, but they part of the past and would be a real distraction. By Shelley von Strunckel
