What will you manifest in 2017?
This year is all about New Beginnings: projects, endeavors, relationships, and much more. There is a whole wide world out there, just waiting for you to throw open the door and step outside.
What will this New Year bring? That’s up to you to decide.
Remember Newton’s Third Law? “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”. This is more important to remember than most people realize, because energy is action.
To rephrase the Third Law in energetic terms: The energy that we send out will return to us”. Like attracts like. If you are focused on the positive, and you endeavor to send out positive energy, you will see positive changes returning to you. If you focus on the negative, that is what you are more likely to see.
This means that we can help shape our lives through specific intention, visualization, and actions. While we may not see an instantaneous return on our energy, it will return to us.
The concept of “positivity”
Let’s face it, we’re human. We are not perfect, and we have good days & bad days. That’s okay! If we have a bad day, or even a bad week, it is not the end of the world! Part of our journey in this life is to learn how to work through or around those challenges that bring out our darker side.
Being a “positive” person does not mean you have to be all rainbows and sunshine 24/7. Egads…that would be exhausting! Being a positive person means that majority of the time you see (or are looking for) the positive in life, that you know there are ups and downs, and are okay with that. Being positive also means that you are open to change; you are willing to see/hear the other side of a situation. You are willing to grow.
Being “human”
It’s okay to be human! This doesn’t mean you’ve failed. On the contrary, accepting and loving yourself, with all your flaws, is something we need, but are not taught to do. Forgive yourself for those flaws, too. This is all part of the human experience.
But… what will you do about your flaws and mistakes?
Learn to love yourself, despite the flaws, and decide to make the changes you need to. Just don’t use self-love as an excuse to continue being a bully, a cheat, or worse. (That is narcissism, which is not a “positive”.) Accept yourself with kindness and compassion, and then move on and make those changes.
Making positive changes
It truly is about the small steps. Progress happens when action is taken. As long as you are doing things to improve your life, positive energy is sent out and will return. Small steps lead to larger ones, which eventually manifest as huge changes in our lives.
Make an agreement with yourself to do something positive each day. It can be as simple as passing along a smile, holding a door open for someone, or even taking a moment to close your eyes & just breathe.
Showing kindness and compassion (to yourself and others) are the most powerful forms of positive energy anyone can send out. These things are needed more now than ever, especially if we wish to make universal changes for good in our World.
Be the change. Be the positive light. Not only for yourself, but for others.
2017 is ready and waiting for your energy. What will you send out?
