“Thought is power, as is desire, but neither is enough unless it is backed by faith, specificity, and the desire to see to it that it becomes.”
– Stephen Richards –
While it may seem like manifestation is all about thinking, it actually is founded on three distinct pillars that go far beyond just thinking a thought. The three components of this process are known as Being, Doing, and Having.
Each much be present for the other two to work. Without one, the stool becomes lopsided and you fall over, failing to accomplish your objectives. What do these mean, though? And how do they work together to achieve the manifesting of your goals?
Let’s explore each.
Being
The first pillar is about being the person that you are striving to be. It is about learning to inhabit the beliefs and choices of a person who deserves happiness, who can achieve their goals, and who is committed to realizing their objectives.
Before you can do something, you must have the right outlook or mindset that will get you the results you want. In other words, it is not enough to act a certain way or to want something.
You have to embody the values, beliefs and thoughts that are needed to realize this dream.
Being is about figuring out your values, determining the rules and expectations for your life that are aligned with those, and then reconsidering these in all the thoughts and choices that you make. You are being the person you need to be to do what you need to do to have the things you want.
Believe in what you want so much that is has no choice but to materialize. ~ Abraham Hicks
Doing
Manifestation without action is only a wish. ~ Nanette Mathews
Everything you want in life requires something from you. It may require learning, action, a change in circumstances, new choices or habits, or a change in your outlook. So, if you need to adjust your mindset, you must be willing to put in the work to do that.
If you need to learn some new skills, then you must put in the effort. If you should adopt healthier or more productive habits, you have to take the necessary actions to develop these.
Action is not always easy, which is why you must rely on being the right type of person, having the right mindset, to stay the course and perform the necessary actions. Doing does not just happen because you want it; it occurs when you make the conscious choice to behave, to move, to change, to learn. It requires effort.
Having
While realizing your goals may seem like the endpoint or that Having something is the ultimate result you seek to achieve, this is not necessarily true. When you have invested in the Being and Doing, Having what you want should become a steppingstone to a new goal, the manifestation of something new in your life.
Having means that you have realized something important to you and that your journey is ready to continue in a new direction.
It is time to circle back around to Being to achieve your new dream and begin the work of Doing to attain it.
Having also means handling your newfound happiness
well, sharing it with others, putting your gratitude out into the universe, and acknowledging the work that went into its fruition.
Without these actions, you can begin to take your achievement for granted, you may lose sight of what is important to you, and you may struggle to be genuinely happy with your accomplishments.
The lesson from the three pillars is that merely doing any one of these will not result in the permanent change and lasting happiness that you seek through manifestation. You must become the person necessary for achieving your goals. This will guide your actions, which will result in you having everything you want.
“I have finally come to the realisation that nothingis truer than our own manifestation.
I mean society sucks, everything is backwards, and I am awake in a world alone full of ignorant minds, toxic belief systems and sleeping souls.
My mind is a bed of soil for me to plant my seeds, I need to keep my soil healthy.
I have to water my seeds with actions and in the warmth of presence day by day, I appreciate watching my plants grow.
I am fluid, I am objective, and I make noise waking the sleeping souls around me as my garden comes to life.
Lead by example.”
John Maiorana (oohGiovanni)
