How would you like to go to Bali?

I literally laughed out loud when I saw this question pop up in my messenger app. Going to Bali has been on my bucket list ever since I saw the movie Eat, Pray, Love!

“I’d love to,” I wrote back; and with that shot up out of my chair jumping up and down, flailing my arms around in the air as if Keith Urban had just walked into my living room to give me my own private performance.

I was beyond thrilled that my friend and colleague asked me to be one of the speakers at his Bali retreat!

I immediately thought of the brain-priming audio I’d been listening to for 2 months where I’d see myself standing on a stage speaking to an audience of thousands. During these evening visualizations, I’d let myself feel the joy and energy of connecting with these people as their transformation unfolded right in front of me.

This international speaking opportunity is one step toward that vision.

That’s the power of visualization!

Creating specific pictures in your mind and feeling the emotions those images conjure up is one way to manifest your desires.

Putting these mental movies on repeat tells a part of your brain called the reticular activating system [RAS] what to pay attention to and what to believe as true. The RAS filters information that matches your ideas to your subconscious mind, and you will eventually start to attract these things to you.

Here’s how this plays out:

You’ve been thinking about the new white Cadallic XT5 that you want, and all of a sudden that’s all you see on the road,

Or

You’re on the beach talking about playing the numbers that appeared in your dream from last night and a few minutes later, a plane flies by with a big banner for the mega millions lottery jackpot.

Essentially, you see what you want to see.

So what would you like to manifest in your life and business?

Whether it’s a trip to a foreign country, a speaking engagement, a stream of ideal clients or a husband…

See this reality in your mind first, feel the enthusiasm and excitement in your bones, and start to identify as the person who already has this life.

One key to manifesting what you want is to dream and imagine what it would be like if you had it all right now. Then start to look for every little breadcrumb of evidence along your trail and celebrate the small victories that are popping up everywhere.

Soon enough, you’ll find your Bali!
