Hey Chris,
How can we bring our thoughts into reality?
Signed,

Ooooh thoughtful, GREAT question!
There’s two approaches to answering this question…
One, ask yourself, what is keeping you from bringing your thoughts into reality…
Two, what is the reality you want to create…and are your thoughts supporting you?
Lets take the second one, first.
There are so many things we all want to do and create in our lives.
I recall when I was building my business and my coaches would “inspire” me to want a multimillion dollar business. I would do all the steps and activities required to move me in that direction. But my thoughts were not supporting me in reaching that goal. Why?
Because it wasn’t my goal…it was what they wanted me to achieve… My thoughts were about helping people achieve greatness in their lives and in their pursuits. This didn’t always jive with making a lot of money…so the millions were not the focus.
Creating clarity, excitement and inspiration when you think about the reality you want to create is a crucial number one step. Then, aligning your thoughts with that reality is the crucial number two step.
You want to “manage” your thoughts to support the reality you want to create.
Not the reality you “might” create. Not the reality you “hope” to create.
That means you entertain only those thoughts that support your reality. Not the ones that want you to doubt, question or challenge the reality you want to create.
This is so important.
That’s why I wanted to take on the second approach, first.
Now, let’s tackle the first one.
What keeps you from bringing your thoughts into reality?
There’s an old game people would play at parties…charades.
The person would either draw a card from a charades party deck or a slip of paper, that suggested what they would “act” out and people would guess what it was.
Oftentimes, someone would start the game by asking, is it animal, vegetable or mineral? This would get everyone’s head on the same page.
So I’m going to ask you…what keeps you from bringing your thoughts into reality?
Is it a person, a feeling, and experience?
Person –
- Has someone suggested that you can or cannot achieve the reality you seek? Has someone offered an alternative (their alternative, by the way) reality for you?
- Has someone been stirring up nonsense to keep you from the reality you want?
Feeling –
- Are you not excited about the reality you seek?
- Do you fear that getting what you want could require you to be someone else? Are you struggling with a fear of failure or of success?
Experience –
- Have you tried to create this reality in the past and not see it realized?
- Have you watched others reach for this in the past and it’s affecting your confidence?
- Have you sabotaged yourself in the past when you went after what you wanted?
If you spend some time thinking about and answering these questions, giving yourself the best possible support, love and encouragement, I know that you’ll be able to turn your thoughts into reality.
One final piece of advice.
Make absolutely sure, that the reality you want to create…is ALWAYS yours.
