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.comWhen you care about somebody, you're not shy about showing it. However, one particular individual has been far less forthcoming about revealing their feelings, which has been upsetting. You're only just realising this is no indication they don't care, but simply that they're less demonstrative than you, which is a huge relief. By Shelley von Strunckel
Admittedly, the situation you're dealing with is as complex as it is urgent. However, the real problem is the unwillingness of those involved to even consider making changes. Don't let this stop you suggesting them. Simply factor in that they'll probably refuse you, at least until they discover you're right. By Shelley von Strunckel
Few things frustrate you more than dealing with somebody whose thinking is so rigid they don't even realise they're refusing to explore the world around them, or what they're missing. But that's exactly what you're contending with. Challenging as this is, if anybody can get them to consider new ideas, it's you. By Shelley von Strunckel
By the time of the New Moon, early next week, the odds are good you'll be looking at certain rather awkward circumstances from an entirely unexpected perspective. Knowing that, urgent as others insist it is that you make decisions, organise them so they can be easily changed. Eventually, they'll thank you. By Shelley von Strunckel
In the case of most differences, if you can't strike an accord, you can at least find a way to create a working relationship. However, in one particularly tricky situation you're finding it difficult to even discuss the gulf between you. Consequently, for the time being, you're better off simply agreeing to disagree. By Shelley von Strunckel
While you're capable of great diplomacy when the occasion warrants, you see no point in being tactful with those who simply aren't making an effort. Before you confront them, ask a few questions. Their seemingly half-hearted approach isn't what you think. They've completely misunderstood the situation and what's expected of them. By Shelley von Strunckel
The line between being discreet and keeping potentially important information to yourself isn't always a clear one. And it's especially confusing at the moment, since one particular individual is already somewhat paranoid about being short of facts. Update them on the latest now, but ensure they know this must go no further. By Shelley von Strunckel
You have a stubborn streak. This has surfaced recently in clashes with others over potential changes in elements of your work or lifestyle. While you regard these as completely unnecessary, they insist they're overdue. Only now are you realising that they're not only wise, those changes would make it all a lot easier. By Shelley von Strunckel
Those who simply ignore your views yet make unrelenting attempts to win you over to theirs infuriate you. Consequently, you've avoided telling certain individuals where you stand on several pivotal issues. This is only causing confusion. Stick to a simple explanation and you won't overstep the line, as you so fear you will. By Shelley von Strunckel
Initially, when you made certain plans some weeks ago, you both investigated the facts and explored the ideas of those whose opinions you respect. While this is all well and good, things have changed greatly since then. Enough that you owe it to yourself to conduct a serious review of your plans. By Shelley von Strunckel
Usually it's issues of a subjective nature, such as those involving concepts and feelings, that can result in confusion, while practical and financial matters are more straightforward. Now it's the reverse. This may have to do with the sudden shifts in the actual circumstances involved, which leave you making changes nearly every day. By Shelley von Strunckel
If you disagree with somebody, don't be shy about expressing those views. While at times you might be wise to worry that you'd upset them, at the moment that could be exactly what's needed to raise pivotal issues. Only once these are out in the open is there any hope of achieving an accord. By Shelley von Strunckel
