- 0:07You're listening to the Manifestation Station podcast. I'm your host Holly Edwards
- 0:13and together we can help create your magic.
- 0:21Hi and welcome back. Another week done and dusted.
- 0:26I hope you've all had such a lovely week. I was just thinking about each and
- 0:32every person listening to this today.
- 0:35I'm just thinking where are you what struggles
- 0:38have you got going on what are you happy about
- 0:41what are you giving gratitude about and wherever
- 0:44you are I just want you to know that I know that
- 0:47each person has their own things going on I
- 0:50sometimes get messages going look I've figured out
- 0:53figured out how to find love I've figured out how to
- 0:56sort out my career but I just need the money or I've
- 0:59figured out money but I just want to manifest the
- 1:02love of my life you can do it all but
- 1:05also I'm here to tell you that whatever you're going through
- 1:08whatever your struggles are and I think we all have them
- 1:11we all have our own personal struggles and I'm
- 1:16here at the other end of your speaker the other end of your whatever you're
- 1:20listening on at the moment if you're in the car if you're having a walk you're
- 1:25having a bath if you're going to bed I'm with you You're not alone and this episode,
- 1:32I am really so excited about this episode and I think this is something that
- 1:39I've wanted to talk about since I started the podcast and I'm.
- 1:44I've been into manifesting for quite a long time now. I've been doing it almost 20 years.
- 1:51But this step that we're talking about today, I feel like this only really properly
- 1:59resonated with me and clicked, I would say, in the last couple of years.
- 2:04And I don't think it's spoken about enough. I don't think there's enough emphasis
- 2:09on this part of manifesting.
- 2:12So I think if you can nail this step
- 2:15and if you want to make steps towards
- 2:18your manifesting goals and really attract them in and elevate your manifesting
- 2:23game this is the step to take note of and this step is about aligning your behaviors
- 2:31and stepping into your future selves shoes that's actually one of my favorite quotes,
- 2:38step into your future self's shoes.
- 2:41So what does that mean? Now you might, if you're into manifesting,
- 2:46you may have heard of this before that you have to act now as if you already
- 2:53have received your desires.
- 2:55So I used to kind of look at that step and think, okay, I have to act really happy.
- 3:01I have to act really happy that I've received my manifestation as if it had already happened.
- 3:08So say when I was looking for to meet my soulmate, I'd almost,
- 3:12I'd visualize, I would write down what I was looking for in a partner,
- 3:17I would put it on a vision board.
- 3:19And then I'd kind of visualize being feeling really happy now as if they've arrived.
- 3:25And I kind of thought that's all it meant. Just acting as if you had it now
- 3:31was acting happy as if you've got it now.
- 3:33And that is very much a part of it, but that is not all of it.
- 3:40And I think the key word here is act.
- 3:44Act as though you already have received your desires. Act as if you've already
- 3:49received your manifestations.
- 3:51Stepping to your future self's shoes means you will be acting as though you
- 3:57have already received your desires.
- 4:00Aligning your behaviors.
- 4:03Are you aligning yourself now? Not just feeling happy now as if you've already
- 4:09received your desires, but are you aligning your behaviors?
- 4:13Behaviors so this is about acting it's about
- 4:16our behaviors what are we doing now to
- 4:19show the universe that we have already received our
- 4:24desires now i'm going to go into a little bit more detail here because you may
- 4:28be confused at the moment thinking well yeah i'm acting happy as if i've got
- 4:34my desires but they're not actually here yet but the point is that it's a crucial
- 4:41step that gets really overlooked.
- 4:44So we've talked about getting really clear on what it is that you want to manifest.
- 4:50You're being more positive and you're trying to raise your vibrations and you're
- 4:56trying to step onto the right frequency in order to align with your manifestations.
- 5:02And then what do you do? A lot of people carry on living the exact same life
- 5:09in the exact same way that they were living before putting out to the universe
- 5:14about what it is that we wanted to manifest.
- 5:18So you are, I'm not saying you are doing this, but some people are.
- 5:24And I think a lot of people are putting out what they want to manifest and then
- 5:28they are waiting, waiting for their manifestations to come knocking at the door.
- 5:35But that is not aligning your behaviors. So
- 5:39if we're talking about frequencies and and the
- 5:43need to operate on the same frequencies as
- 5:46your dreams so by waiting for your
- 5:49manifestation to come knocking at the door is not aligning
- 5:52your behaviors and you're likely not
- 5:55operating on the same frequency as your
- 5:57desire so it's time to change the channel tune into the new channel that is
- 6:04operating on the same frequency as your desire Your dreams are not going to
- 6:08be able to reach you if you're on the wrong channel because you are operating
- 6:13on a different frequency.
- 6:15The magic will start happening when you start becoming your future self.
- 6:21You can start today and take small steps today to start living life now as if
- 6:27those desires have already come to you. So imagine like now that it's like a dress rehearsal.
- 6:34Imagine if you landed your dream tomorrow.
- 6:39Imagine then that you haven't actually been practicing and preparing yourself
- 6:43for this version of your life,
- 6:46that it will be a waste to receive it tomorrow because you're not going to be
- 6:50ready and you won't know who you are meant to be once you've received it.
- 6:55Now there's been studies that have been done where this happens a lot to people
- 6:59who have won the lottery.
- 7:00Now don't ask me, I always say if I win the lottery tomorrow,
- 7:04don't worry, I'll know exactly how to spend it.
- 7:07And I know exactly how to manage the money.
- 7:10But it's true. And you see a lot of lottery winners that blow their money in
- 7:15a few years and kind of end up in therapy.
- 7:17And they say, I was happier before I won the money.
- 7:20I know. I know. You're all shaking your head now going, why did these people
- 7:25win the lottery? Why not me?
- 7:27But the thing is, it does come into the same process of aligning your behaviors.
- 7:33So those people likely probably hadn't had the chance yet to change their money
- 7:37mindset and align their money behaviors.
- 7:40They hadn't stepped into their future self shoes.
- 7:44They still hadn't changed their old established money ideologies.
- 7:48So believe it or not, just getting the money doesn't change your money mindset.
- 7:52But working on shifting your subconscious thoughts and working through your blockages does.
- 7:59That's why it's so important to align your behaviors with who you want to become.
- 8:04If you start becoming your future self now, this will show the universe that
- 8:09you are ready to receive.
- 8:11And therefore, when you feel like you are ready to receive, you will automatically
- 8:17become more proactive about your goals.
- 8:20You'll put yourself in situations which are more aligned with your goals,
- 8:25you'll be happier now because you'll also be operated on a frequency which is
- 8:31authentic to your passions and your dreams.
- 8:34So how do you align your behaviors and how do you step into your future self shoes?
- 8:39If you want to manifest love, for example, let's imagine that you've put out
- 8:44there exactly what you're looking for in a dream partner.
- 8:47Maybe you've made a list of the characteristics that you want to attract in
- 8:52with your future partner.
- 8:53But if you've put out your list and you've visualized your new partner,
- 8:59but you're sitting indoors,
- 9:01maybe every day in your PJs, not having showered, you're binging on a TV series
- 9:08every day, scrolling endlessly on your phone, feeling low.
- 9:14Eating junk food, not moving your body, self-worth's not great,
- 9:18you're not keeping yourself mentally or physically fit, then the chances of Mr.
- 9:23Right or Mrs. Right knocking on your front door tomorrow is unlikely.
- 9:29Because you're not operating on the love channel, on the love frequency.
- 9:33And more importantly, you're not behaving as though you've already received love.
- 9:39If you met the love of your life tomorrow, would you be having the same day today?
- 9:46They're sitting in your PJs, they're scrolling on your phone,
- 9:49they're eating junk food. It doesn't mean that all of those things are wrong.
- 9:53I've said this before in other podcasts. off. Nothing wrong with lounging around
- 9:58in your PJs, having a lovely TV binge, eating chocolate.
- 10:02Oh my gosh, nothing wrong with that. But if this is kind of your day-to-day
- 10:07life, you're not showing up for yourself and you're not showing the universe
- 10:11you're ready to receive love.
- 10:13If you met the love of your life tomorrow, would you stay in your PJs tomorrow?
- 10:17Would you not wash your hair? Would you not shower?
- 10:20Would you, I don't know, eat three McDonald's
- 10:23in a row and then eat your chocolate and maybe you would
- 10:26do some of those things but the likelihood is you'll probably
- 10:29feel as though you have more self-worth tomorrow
- 10:33once you've met your partner and this is
- 10:35the key here you need to bring your self-worth and your self-care in now today
- 10:42to align your behaviors with your goal so imagine yourself to be in love with
- 10:49your soulmate and they love you back and And you're in a happy, fulfilling,
- 10:54loving relationship where they have chosen you and you have chosen them.
- 11:01How would you feel? How would you behave? What would your new routine look like?
- 11:07What would you be doing differently today in your day-to-day life that you haven't
- 11:13been doing prior to meeting your soulmate?
- 11:17Would you be planning new dates? Start taking steps now.
- 11:22That align with your desire. Start visiting new places that you want to take your partner to.
- 11:29Go with friends, go alone, start seeing the world as you would do once your partner has arrived.
- 11:36Would you love yourself more because you're now in a relationship and someone
- 11:41else is able to see your self-worth?
- 11:44The best way to align your behaviors, if you're looking for love for example,
- 11:49is to start loving yourself now.
- 11:52I think we hear this battered around quite a lot, start, you know,
- 11:55love yourself before someone else can love you.
- 11:59But actually, if you think about it, that is a way of aligning your behaviours.
- 12:04How can you expect someone else to come along and see your self-worth if you're
- 12:10not showing up for yourself and loving yourself now?
- 12:13You're not showing the universe that you love yourself now. You're not showing
- 12:17the universe you are worthy of love.
- 12:19You're not showing the universe that you know how to deal with that love once it comes along.
- 12:25You need to get yourself in the best shape mentally now before your love arrives
- 12:31so that you are ready to receive your love.
- 12:34Start ways now to find, to align your behaviors now to start loving yourself now.
- 12:40Find ways to improve that self-worth. Start
- 12:43taking care of your body because this in
- 12:46turn will help your mind exercise move even the smallest of goals drink more
- 12:53water eat your five a day this is showing yourself and showing the universe
- 12:58you are worthy and that you love yourself and that you treat yourself with love and kindness.
- 13:05This is not saying that you have to have the perfect body in order to meet someone.
- 13:10It's about being happier in your own skin now so that that happiness and that
- 13:17self-love and that self-worth radiates from you when you meet the love of your life.
- 13:23And it's about taking actions now that support who you want to become.
- 13:29If we use the love, I'm going to carry on using the love example for a minute.
- 13:33It. We'll bring in some other examples depending on what your desire is.
- 13:37But say you're looking for love and you're currently single.
- 13:40Take up a new hobby that you enjoy that gives you happy hormones.
- 13:45This will add new light, new focus and new interest in your life.
- 13:51This will add another dynamic to your life that you will want to share with your partner.
- 13:57And even if it's something you you want to do alone and continue to do alone
- 14:01and not include your partner, it will give you something to talk about,
- 14:05more interest around you.
- 14:07It's something that you'll become invested in and you'll start enjoying your life more now.
- 14:13That's aligning your behaviors now with who you want to be.
- 14:17Starting to enjoy your life now on your own as if you were with someone and
- 14:22as if you were loved now, you're also adding value to your life.
- 14:26You'll become more interesting and it's really important if you're looking for
- 14:31love but also if you're looking for a promotion or a new job or,
- 14:36you know, a way to create new income.
- 14:39Taking up this new hobby is creating interest and it's a form of social collateral
- 14:44for when you meet your new partner.
- 14:47It gives you something to talk And I think growing yourself and growing your
- 14:53hobbies and becoming the most interesting person in the room so that when you
- 15:00get asked out on that date tomorrow with your soulmate,
- 15:03you have stories to tell.
- 15:05You will light up when you tell them about your hobby.
- 15:09And these people will see that energy in you.
- 15:12This love of your life, this soulmate, will see that energy radiating from you.
- 15:18People will be more attracted to you you
- 15:21will become more attractive to others but
- 15:24also most importantly more attractive to yourself
- 15:27so you are you are then aligning your behaviors you are becoming more attractive
- 15:33in yourself you will then you are aligning your behaviors to be more attractive
- 15:39so that when you go out and meet people you can communicate with them you can flirt with You know why?
- 15:45Because you feel good about yourself now.
- 15:49You have more to offer in a relationship now because you are growing.
- 15:54You are looking after your mind and your body.
- 15:57You are moving. You are drinking water. You're eating your vegetables.
- 16:02You're enjoying a new hobby.
- 16:05Even if that is, I don't mean to say that you need to get super fit and start running marathons.
- 16:11That may be that, I don't know, your hobby is watching a new series on Netflix.
- 16:17There's nothing wrong with that, but it's making sure you grow in yourself and
- 16:21you're becoming happy now.
- 16:22Come the most interesting person in the room. So let's stick with this love example.
- 16:28Let's say you're waiting for your soulmate. No, you're not waiting.
- 16:32Let's not say that because you are definitely not waiting.
- 16:35You are acting as though you already have your soulmate.
- 16:40But let's imagine that you went on a date tomorrow and it is the man or the woman of your dreams.
- 16:46They are everything you envision. It is the best date you have ever,
- 16:51ever had. You're wanting to invite them around to yours afterwards.
- 16:55Would you be happy inviting them into your home? I don't mean in terms of the first date here.
- 17:01I mean, in terms of your home and wherever you live, is it tidy?
- 17:06Is it tidy enough that you would invite your soulmate around now?
- 17:10Or are you embarrassed to bring someone around? Because maybe you've got a pile
- 17:15of clothes somewhere that you've been meaning to clear out for ages.
- 17:18You've got a couple of broken doors that you've been meaning to get someone in to fix.
- 17:23Maybe there's dirty washing everywhere, overflowing in the laundry room.
- 17:26Easy to do. maybe you've been waiting to declutter
- 17:30would you be happy inviting your soulmate around today think about that for
- 17:37a minute this is a form of aligning your behaviors are you ready to receive
- 17:42them are you ready to receive them into your home if your answer is no then start decluttering.
- 17:49Decluttering is so good for you mentally and physically but it's also showing
- 17:54up as showing Showing the universe you are making room and ready to receive your desire.
- 18:00So if it is your soulmate and the love of your life that you're trying to manifest, declutter.
- 18:06Clear out all of those useless items that you've been holding on to.
- 18:10Make room for your partner and be ready to welcome them into your home.
- 18:15Is there room on the side table next to the bed for them to start staying over?
- 18:20Maybe clear the side table on their side of the bed.
- 18:24Start sleeping on side of your side of the bed now. All of these things are
- 18:29aligning your behaviors.
- 18:31You are stepping into your future self's shoes.
- 18:35That your house and that your home and that your bed and that your bedside table
- 18:40is ready to receive your love, ready to receive your desires.
- 18:45Your actions are showing that they are aligned with your desires.
- 18:50So when you meet this person, when you meet this soulmate, you should be proud
- 18:54of yourself and acting as the self now who is ready to receive that love.
- 19:00Have you done the work on yourself already in order to receive that love?
- 19:06Your actions influence everything free thing around you, including who is drawn to you.
- 19:12So this includes dating people who don't respect you or don't accept your boundaries.
- 19:18I see time and time again, I think people who are constantly going back to their
- 19:24exes, exes that have treated them badly, exes that haven't changed because maybe
- 19:30they're feeling lonely.
- 19:31So it's easy, isn't it? When, And, you know, that person from your past texts
- 19:36you and you want to meet up and you're so tempted to go back and form those
- 19:41same habits that you've been stuck in relentlessly.
- 19:46That is not aligning your behaviors with your new desires.
- 19:49If you want to meet your soulmate, or even if you think your ex is your soulmate,
- 19:55if you are adopting the same behaviors,
- 19:58accepting the same bad behaviors from your ex-partner, you are not aligning
- 20:05your behaviors with who you want to become.
- 20:07If who you want to become is living in a relationship with your your absolute
- 20:12soulmate who treats you well, accepts your boundaries,
- 20:17shows you love, shows you loyalty,
- 20:20then by letting these same people who you know are no good for you,
- 20:26that is not aligning your behaviors with your future self.
- 20:29So start taking a close look who you're letting in by letting in these people
- 20:34who are not treating you as worthy.
- 20:37You're basically saying to the universe, here you go. I know I'm not worthy.
- 20:42So just bring me more people who show me I'm not worthy.
- 20:44It's also showing that you don't know what it is that you actually want.
- 20:48You're showing the universe by accepting kind of these dates and these offers
- 20:53of just slipping back with an ex-partner or attracting the wrong kind of people.
- 20:58And you're kind of showing the universe that you actually don't know really
- 21:01what you want and that you're not aligning yourself with those desires.
- 21:05You may have put on a list of all the characteristics you're looking for in someone.
- 21:11And when you're constantly letting these low-graded, low-level people come in and treat you badly,
- 21:18you're not showing up for yourself and you're definitely not,
- 21:21your actions are not aligning with your future desires of finding that perfect kind of love.
- 21:28It's the best way to align your behaviors and to start stepping into your future
- 21:34self shoes is to look at your habits on a daily basis and see if they relate to your desire.
- 21:42Start writing them down and,
- 21:45and circle anything that's not aligned with your goal.
- 21:49So if you want that new job, for example, how would you behave if you got offered that new job today?
- 21:56Start dressing for the job that you want. That is aligning your behaviours to your goal.
- 22:01If you got offered this new job, maybe it had a huge pay rise and you'd felt
- 22:05more fulfilled, what would your new daily routine look like?
- 22:09What would you be doing today that's different from who you have been before
- 22:14you got the promotion emotion, would you join the 5am club?
- 22:18Start setting your alarm an hour earlier to work out or start working on pitching
- 22:24your ideas for the meeting that you have later that day.
- 22:27If you run your own business or you want to start your own business,
- 22:32would you be posting more content about what you do on social media?
- 22:36I think some people can get kind of like a crippling embarrassment or or a crippling
- 22:41imposter syndrome about starting to do that now.
- 22:45But that is not aligning your behaviors.
- 22:48Don't wait until you get there to start adopting these behaviors.
- 22:53To start now is attracting your desires now.
- 22:58Immediately, you are elevating your manifesting game.
- 23:02And once you become your future self now, there is no other way than what to
- 23:08receive other than your desires being attracted to you.
- 23:12There is no other way than what you want to manifest coming your way because
- 23:19you are on the same frequency, you are on the same channel and you are aligning your behaviours.
- 23:26When you become your future self now and start aligning your.
- 23:33You will be putting yourself in rooms with like-minded people.
- 23:37You will have the courage and the confidence to go to events that align with your goals.
- 23:42So it's interesting, actually. It reminds me of a conversation recently that
- 23:45I had with one of my sisters.
- 23:48She is an incredible cook, an incredible baker. She bakes everything from scratch.
- 23:54She makes cakes, desserts for the kids without any refined sugars.
- 24:00Burgers she is literally the Delia Smith of
- 24:03the family if she makes sandwiches for the kids they
- 24:06probably never have sandwiches actually that's a silly suggestion but
- 24:09if she makes some sandwiches for the kids she home bakes her
- 24:12own bread the whole their whole of
- 24:15their packed lunches are homemade I even laughed the other
- 24:17day that she makes homemade chicken nuggets she is she
- 24:21is so talented and I was chatting to her
- 24:24and I was saying look you should really do some
- 24:27of this like put some of these good skills these
- 24:30amazing skills into a business because when she
- 24:34talks about her baking and she talks about her cooking she's
- 24:37so good at it and the way she runs she's got
- 24:40four kids and the way that she runs her family so
- 24:44well and that she feeds them from scratch and
- 24:47you know she's a she's she's a busy busy
- 24:50mum I suggested that she put some of
- 24:53this put some of her skills into a business and start
- 24:56channeling it and I said look she said
- 24:59I don't know where to start where do I start with
- 25:02that but she also comes alive when she talks about her
- 25:04baking and her cooking so I said look why don't you start putting some pictures
- 25:09on social media put some recipes and you know how you've made this people would
- 25:13be interested but she was reluctant she was hesitant because she was like I
- 25:19don't see what the point is who would be looking I don't really have any followers.
- 25:24So I talked to her about aligning behaviors and said, look, if you want to make
- 25:28a business of it, there's no point in doing it behind closed doors and not letting
- 25:34anyone in on the experience of her baking.
- 25:37So I said, look, imagine, for example, imagine now if you were a successful,
- 25:43famous cake maker, for example, what would you be doing today?
- 25:48You would be shouting outing about it from the rooftops.
- 25:51You would be sharing it on social media, sharing your recipes,
- 25:55selling your cakes, hanging out with other like-minded businesswomen who have
- 26:01their own cake businesses,
- 26:03following other cake baking accounts, booking a business course about how to
- 26:07grow your cake business,
- 26:09hosting local coffee mornings to showcase your cakes,
- 26:13offering to cater for a local party or an event.
- 26:16You can't even imagine what opportunities will will come to you until you start
- 26:21acting as though you've already received your manifestations.
- 26:27So the world really is your oyster. The only thing holding you back right now is yourself.
- 26:34And by making the crucial mistake
- 26:37of sitting and waiting for your goals to come knocking at the door.
- 26:43Happiness is not the destination, it's the journey. We've heard that a lot before.
- 26:48But it's true and it's more than that. The fun is about who you become on that journey.
- 26:55Journey start looking at your daily habits what
- 26:59small changes can you make today that will
- 27:02align your behaviors with your desires maybe
- 27:06it's getting up I don't know 15 minutes
- 27:09earlier and doing yoga in the morning to set
- 27:12you up for the day maybe it's starting your day with the green juice
- 27:15I've got a friend at the moment who wants to become a yoga instructor and
- 27:19we were talking about aligning your behaviors how does your day look
- 27:22different she said I would get up up earlier I would
- 27:25do yoga in the morning as the sun rises she doesn't
- 27:29do that now instead of grabbing a quick
- 27:31McDonald's breakfast she said she'd have a green juice she'd maybe
- 27:35post about that on Instagram she would get outside in
- 27:38nature for maybe half an hour so maybe that's a morning walk or walk to take
- 27:43the children to school she said one of the main things she would change in terms
- 27:47of her business or not change but in some way that she would start acting now
- 27:51would be to to start posting content every day,
- 27:56just because she was saying to me, I'm really good at yoga. I teach yoga.
- 28:02I do it really well. But she just assumes that everybody knows all of the things that she knows.
- 28:07So she said to align her behavior, she would start posting regularly,
- 28:12maybe like a daily blog, a daily vlog of how to master one of the yoga positions. Yeah.
- 28:20And I said, look, I would be interested in that. I want to start doing yoga.
- 28:24If I've got any really good yoga teachers who listen to the podcast,
- 28:28please get in touch because I definitely need to kind of find a new class,
- 28:32whether that's online or locally.
- 28:35And I need to listen to my own advice and go and find myself a class.
- 28:38But she said that she would start posting regularly. She wasn't doing that yet.
- 28:42And do you know why? Because she said she hasn't got the followers yet.
- 28:45That doesn't matter. because to start becoming who you want to be now you have
- 28:52to act as if those followers are already there your followers are not going
- 28:57to come in yet until you start showing up consistently.
- 29:02Aligning your behaviors consistently that is how you will build the business
- 29:06and it makes me think about when I started writing my manifesting book which
- 29:13is I would say about three quarters of the the way through now.
- 29:17It's a step-by-step process of how to manifest.
- 29:21It's got some amazing kind of new ideas on how to manifest with a really,
- 29:26really amazing game that I've created called the 24-hour manifesting game.
- 29:32I haven't shared it yet, but it will be in the book due to be published next year in 2025.
- 29:37Now, I've had the idea of writing this book for years and I've I've wanted to
- 29:43help people with manifesting and sharing my own manifesting stories for years.
- 29:48But life has been busy. I've also had an amazing career in Hollywood and designing
- 29:55makeup and hair for TV and film,
- 29:58which I put down to a lot of manifesting skills and manifesting amazing jobs
- 30:05and amazing actors and directors that I've worked with.
- 30:09And I've been wanting to write this book for a long time. and when I look back
- 30:14I wasn't aligning my behaviours.
- 30:16When I started writing last year I felt a little bit hesitant about telling
- 30:22people about my manifesting book and I think it's because I felt like I had
- 30:28the like an imposter syndrome because I wasn't aligning my behaviours.
- 30:32I would kind of just tell people I felt really close
- 30:35to look I'm writing this book and they go that's amazing you
- 30:39know what's the book about and I'd tell them it's about manifesting and
- 30:42and they'd be really interested and the more
- 30:46I started adopting the mindset of I am an author I am writing a book I then
- 30:53started reaching out to publishers and friends who have links to publishing
- 30:58agents and that started to grow and that world that I was in started to grow I started
- 31:04to follow published authors online.
- 31:08I've started sharing my journey of writing my book.
- 31:12And then came the podcast that kind of forced me, you know what,
- 31:15I'm going to start sharing this now.
- 31:17And that was a way of aligning my own behaviors with my manifesting book.
- 31:22Share my skills now with whoever wants to hear.
- 31:25I don't know who wants to hear. And there was a part of me that thought,
- 31:28you know what, maybe one person, maybe one person, probably my mother.
- 31:34Hi, mom, if you're listening. Probably one person might listen, but that's okay.
- 31:38I'm aligning my behaviors. I know that people enjoy manifesting.
- 31:43I know that I'm good at manifesting. I've had amazing experience with manifesting.
- 31:48I know that I'm a real person. Hopefully people will understand and resonate
- 31:53with just a real girl over here manifesting her way through life.
- 31:57Life so those are just some of
- 32:00the ways that I started aligning my behaviors and
- 32:03the more I grow the more I
- 32:06align and that's with a whole load of other desires as
- 32:09well I aligned my behaviors when I was dating and I
- 32:12was really really got to a point where I thought no my main
- 32:15thing I want to manifest is a perfect
- 32:19partner I'm ready to receive love
- 32:22and I really worked on myself I spent
- 32:25years growing my confidence I took
- 32:28up new hobbies I ran a marathon which just brought so
- 32:31much focus and life into my life
- 32:34I set strong boundaries I released ex-partners that
- 32:38no longer served me I started to
- 32:41get excited about dating and I kind of set myself kind of goals to date regularly
- 32:47which I did and I really enjoyed and I had some lovely amazing dates and I had
- 32:53some wacky ones But even with the really maybe bad ones,
- 32:58I don't even want to say bad because every date came with a lesson and every date came with a story.
- 33:04And I have some hilarious dating stories.
- 33:07And again, that created interest in it and it gave me something to talk about.
- 33:12And with each date brought me confidence of how to date.
- 33:16And I tried to align my behaviors as best as I could, including setting boundaries
- 33:22about what I wanted a partner and what I would tolerate and what I wouldn't
- 33:27tolerate and what I was willing to accept.
- 33:30And the only way I was willing to settle was if someone truly enriched my life. And that's what I found.
- 33:38And I used aligning behaviors with work and my career.
- 33:41And, you know, I owe that to a really successful career as well.
- 33:46So it's something I really, really want you to take on board.
- 33:51And I think it will be the most important thing that I drum on about all the
- 33:57time, aligning behaviors.
- 33:59Don't let anything hold you back. Post the content, post on social media if you've got a business.
- 34:05On that note, if you're not following me yet, please follow me.

- 34:42I want as many examples as possible because I really want to share them with
- 34:47people and I really want to share what you're all doing.
- 34:51So many of you, thank you so much. You have
- 34:53reached out and sent messages about how your
- 34:57lives have have changed since you've been manifesting
- 35:00and the way in which it happened I find
- 35:03them so fascinating and it always gives me
- 35:06new insight myself that ah that's
- 35:09a really good technique for manifesting someone actually sent
- 35:12me a message last week and she
- 35:15said that she wanted a new job and she actually
- 35:19put the number of the new job so the
- 35:22the telephone number of the new job and she put her work she put
- 35:25it as her work number she saved it in her phone as
- 35:28her new work number and then she ended up getting the job and
- 35:31I thought that was quite an amazing one I kind of hadn't thought
- 35:34about that but it's kind of a line in behaviors and also acting like
- 35:37you've already received your manifestation so I
- 35:40really liked that one any other tips and
- 35:43tricks you've got fire them my way I will
- 35:46carry on sharing online so thank
- 35:49you you for coming along for the journey today I've thoroughly
- 35:52enjoyed it I actually feel like I've lifted my spirit
- 35:55sharing about aligning behaviors it's awoken
- 35:59something in me again and I'm going to take stock myself and
- 36:02get my notepad out and just check check alongside my desires I'm going to write
- 36:07a list of my desires and a list of the behaviors that I'm kind of doing that
- 36:12align with them or that don't align with them and I'm going to circle those
- 36:16ones that don't align with them and I'm going to change them.
- 36:19And I'm going to change them today.
- 36:21And I think the really important thing to say about this is that you can start
- 36:27aligning your behaviors today.
- 36:29They don't need to be huge, huge steps. Don't think of it as daunting.
- 36:34Start small steps today. Like I said to you before, wake up 10 minutes earlier
- 36:38if you want to become a more proactive person, if you want to to get more done in your day.
- 36:44Wake up 10 minutes earlier, wake up half an hour earlier, become part of the 5am club.
- 36:49But the point is you can set small goals today to align your behaviors.
- 36:53The more you will start aligning yourself, more opportunities will come to you
- 36:59and more thoughts will come to you about how you can align yourself.
- 37:03And the more your confidence grows, because you will start believing that you
- 37:08already are that person that you want to become.
- 37:11You will start believing it and more importantly you will
- 37:14start feeling it and when you start feeling
- 37:17it that is when the magic will happen and that
- 37:20is when you will then set yourself an even higher goal
- 37:23and align yourself even more so that imposter syndrome will disappear or just
- 37:30you know become a little bit more invisible and your confidence will grow and
- 37:34you will start becoming that person and subconsciously and consciously.
- 37:41So I'll leave you with this today.
- 37:43You are manifesting everything you desire.
- 37:47So start acting like it. Goodbye.
- 37:52Music.
