Future Tripping into Now
Dear Love,
I woke up this morning and tuned into my beyond wildest dreams.
I visualized them in fullness from the items, the places, the people….
To even dream like that is quite a courageous act.
To proclaim to myself - yes, I inevitably will have this dreamy partnership, home, artistic creations, all of these beautiful, brilliant amazing memories and moments….soon.
Even perhaps, in the wildest realm of possibility, these visions and moments are available to me right now…
That is quite the act of trust. My confidence, my intuition is activated and expanded to own these exciting possibilities. To say, yes I am open to these beautiful things, places, people to appear before me right now. Yes I am ready.
My ego, as my protector, was like hold on a moment…how will these even happen? We don’t have all the steps, we don’t know where to even begin to make that all happen right now. I started future tripping building momentum in the opposite direction of where I want to go - starting a narrative about how the heck am I going to make this happen? I don’t know all the steps. I don’t know where to begin even.
I’ve been here before and I am sharing this story to remind you - tune into your clarity now. I tuned into my compassion, my grace, my inner trust in the moment and looked around me to get really quiet and present.
I take a big inhale, exhale. And my ego and protector relaxes.
My intuition, my soul, is lit up by these dreams. So of course, if they are on my heart, if they are pleasurable, if they excite me - of course, I am meant to bring them to life. I am of this world that is constantly expanding in every moment, it is natural for me to grow and expand in my visions and manifest them.
I am surrounded by beautiful manifestations right now…and just years ago, these were things I dreamed of coming true. I didn’t know how they happened until they happened. I could look back and see the story unfold after it unfolded. So how can I expect myself to know how the rest will come to be? That is not in my control. That feels constrictive and causes resistance within me. And I want to create from expansion, from excitement, from pleasure.
I am reminded of the principles of the law of attraction - we attract what we are. And so I tune into the pleasure, the ease, the spaciousness of here and now. Because right now, there is a lot of goodness unfolding. There is a lot to be grateful for. And in the past, when I have felt this, I was led to my exact next step that led me to all the collaborative components and synchronicities that led me to creating the results I have today.
Like the way I manifested putting out my first single…
I was in the excitement of singing, the creativity for creativity’s sake, the gratitude and excitement of singing to myself. I was guided to share a song I recorded with a friend, who had invited us into a writer’s circle. I was working on my writing and sharing myself authentically in developing my writing skills - and remembered he was a DJ. And after I shared my song, he connected me with his good friend who produced music, And then we met up, created and experimented on making my track, and we decided to try something completely new - and that became the single I released titled “I Go Crazy”. You can listen here.
How the heck could I have known that was the way it would all come to be? I can’t say. I just tuned into my excitement here and now. And it unfolded beautifully.
So I continue to do that with all these visions. I remember what feels yummy, what is nourishing me, how I might create more of that right now. And the clarity I have right now is always enough. Because what lights me up lights a path forward for me to continue onward. And my big dreams manifest like magic. I didn’t have to control the situation, I didn’t have to try to be anyone else but me. I just enjoyed myself, kept showing up in expansion, and of course - I manifested magic.
So I apply the same illogical rules here - the one’s where there are no rules other than listening to what feels good right now, and focusing on that, and feeding all my momentum there.
And when I worry, when doubt comes out to play, when my ego wants to protect…I remind myself that I have the power to create worlds when I get so present with myself. I get to feel all my wild feelings and that never takes away from this innate expansion that lives within me.
And you have that power too.
Remember yourself. Remember again and again.
You and I are human and we forget. So this is your reminder to dream bigger visions and allow them to unfold.
Love,
Shayla Manee
