Why I STOPPED Visualizing My Future

Years ago I was doing a lot of visualizing, per the recommendation of folks like Abraham Hicks, Maxwell Maltz, and Joe Dispenza.

It was powerful!

I felt as if this practice was in deed creating an “energetic or vibrational momentum” toward these desired ends.

However, a side effect of this was…

A LOT of contrast and discontentment with where I was presently at in my life.

At the time I was not living where I wanted to live

or doing what I wanted to do for a career.

I didn't have the physique, the car, the finances, the friends, etc.

My entire life was a far cry from where I was envisioning each morning from my calculated lotus position. 

I was torn,

do I stay the course and see this manifestation technique through?

or call it quits?

I decided to call it quits and take a page out of Bashar’s book.

Bashar is an ET channel that I have been following for over a decade with amazing results.

He suggests…

Put your intentions out there, clearly and with conviction - ONCE.

Then relax and let it go, trusting that you’ve already set that ball in motion.

Basically he says, and I have always sensed this personally…

Our higher self knows what we want - we don’t need to repeatedly remind them! LOL

Another thing I did was ask myself a simple question…

What is it about where I want to go in life that is so important to me?

At that time I really wanted to be living in San Diego California, making YouTube videos for my career, on the beach, and enjoying the lovely Southern California climate, as a buff, handsome, abundant dude.

I had a very particular life situation in mind.

I continued my inquiry,

Okay Vic, what's really at the core of all of that?

It dawned on me that what I really craved was, freedom.

An example was,

I had this idea that I wanted the freedom to be able to wake up each morning, go on a long walk, while feeding my mind with an uplifting audio book.

Now, in my vision, I was always on a sandy beach along the gorgeous rocky cliffed Pacific coast with the warm sun shining down! 

But… perhaps I could just do my best to create some of that now?

And that is exactly what I did.

I started waking up early each morning, putting on snow pants! Lol (it was winter in Michigan)

and off I'd go on a nice long stroll down the snow covered sidewalks of the concrete jungle outside my door.

It was lovely!

Funny side note... 

Another big element of my visions was nature.

But once I began making the most of where I was at in life... 

just a few days later on one of my chilly morning walks, I discovered a gorgeous nature spot just a 2 minute walk from my house!

I lived in that house for 3 years and had no idea this awesome place existed!

This idyllic little patch of trees was by far the most nature packed area within a 20 mile radius of my house.

Truth be told, this place was a cemetery! lol

But the vibe was very high, pure, clean, and overall a lovely little sanctuary. 

I wanted nature badly... 

But once I stopped wanting so much and simply opened my eyes... it was there.

AND worth mentioning, in end, I found myself on the fast track to where I wanted to go anyways!

Through appreciation, presence, and doing the best with what I had, 

not only was I able to feel groovy... immediately,

but also that "gratitude frequency" seemed to expedite my manifestations much more effectively than the amplified desire cultivated during my visualization sessions. 

Moral of the story... there's no place to go, no-one to become, it's all available now in this very moment.

and that too, is a practice. 

Until next time, 

Peace!
