My life was changed when I read Napoleon Hill’s, Think and Grow Rich. Now, in this book, Hill doesn’t specifically mention manifesting, but the fundamental lessons he covers are the same as the principles of manifestation.
By the way, I highly recommend this book!

Think and Grow Rich opened up so many possibilities for what my life could be. It gave me the knowledge that I can, in fact, create the life that I want.
I’ve been studying and practicing manifesting techniques for several years now with some pretty amazing results!
Today, I want to go over the basics of manifesting, how it works, and some tips to get you started.
What is the Law of Attraction?
The Law of Attraction, often referred to as manifesting, is the belief that like attracts like.
Basically, the energy and vibrations you put out into the universe attract similar energy and experiences back to you.
This law operates on the principle that your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions shape your reality. In other words, your thoughts become things.
You may not realize it, but your thoughts and beliefs are very powerful. They act as magnets, bringing to you experiences and opportunities that resonate with them.
If you focus on positive thoughts and beliefs, you will create a positive energy field around you. On the other hand, negative thoughts and limiting beliefs can attract unwanted experiences.
Let’s use attracting loving relationships as an example:
If you sincerely believe in the power of love and maintain positive thoughts about relationships, you’re more likely to attract loving and fulfilling connections.
However, if you hold negative beliefs about love or doubt that you are worthy of having a happy relationship, you may unknowingly repel love from entering your life, and always find yourself in unhappy partnerships.
So how does manifesting work?
The most important factor in manifesting is making sure your emotions and desires are in vibrational alignment.
If you’re feeling joy, gratitude, and excitement, you give off high-frequency vibrations that attract positive outcomes.
But feelings of fear, doubt, or frustration emit lower-frequency vibrations that may hinder your manifestation process.
Let’s talk about attracting financial abundance as an example.
By cultivating feelings of abundance, gratitude, and trust that the universe wants to give you what you desire, you align your vibrations with prosperity. This, in turn, attracts opportunities, ideas, and circumstances that can lead to financial abundance.
It’s important to keep an open mind to how these opportunities and ideas may be presented to you. The universe often shows up in unexpected ways!
You might think you’re going to get a raise at work, but the universe might actually be trying to transition you into a whole new career where you’ll make more money and be more fulfilled.
Here are some practical tips to harness the Law of Attraction in your daily life and manifest your dream life.
Tip 1: Clarify Your Desires and Focus on the Feelings
You must define exactly what you want and set very clear intentions. You want to frame these “wants” as feelings and know that they are already yours.
For example, you may frame these as: I am so loved, I am financially free, I am so creative that fresh ideas are always coming to me.
Write them down, visualize them, and take time to focus on what these things actually FEEL like.
Many manifesters find vision boards helpful for setting clear intentions. If you use a vision board, make sure it’s visible to you every day.
Having this clarity helps the universe understand your desires to know what you truly want.
Another idea is to create a digital collage and save it as the background of your phone. Depending on how often you check your phone, you could possibly be seeing your desires hundreds of times a day!
Tip 2: Use Positive Affirmations to Overcome Limiting Beliefs
Use positive affirmations to reprogram your subconscious mind with empowering beliefs.
Take the time to dig deep, self-reflect, and learn what your limiting beliefs are.
Once you’ve identified your limiting beliefs, you’ll need to spend some time rewiring your thought patterns with positive affirmations.
Tip 3: Visualize and Feel
Visualize your desired outcomes as if they’ve already manifested, engaging all your senses in the process.
It’s most important to physically feel what it’s like to have your desires manifest. This sends a clear message to the universe about what you want to attract.
Tip 4: Show Gratitude
Gratitude is a powerful tool for manifesting. Express gratitude daily for what you already have. This raises your vibration and attracts more abundance into your life.
Keep a gratitude journal or practice gratitude meditation to amplify the effects. Don’t just think about external things to be grateful for, like family, career, and your house, but also consider internal strengths, such as resilience, your great sense of humor, and your kind heart.
Tip 5: Take Action
While the previous tips are essential to manifest your desires, it’s important to remember that manifestation requires action. You have to do your part to work with the universe in making your desires manifest.
Open yourself up to and act on opportunities that align with your desires, as they are often the stepping stones to manifesting your dreams.
The Law of Attraction is a powerful force that shapes your reality. By mastering your thoughts, beliefs, and emotions, you can align yourself with the experiences and outcomes you desire.
