Welcome back to my Spiritual Awareness series. Today I’m going to talk about Manifesting.
Manifesting is the practice of focusing on what you want. There’s an old saying that says ‘We get what we focus on’. . . And to expand on that I always say, so you may as well focus on good things and desires. We must take action to manifest what we want. Just sitting around and wishing isn’t manifesting.
You’ve heard it said before – be careful what you wish for. So, to reiterate, we get what we focus on, so best to focus on the good things and all things good than to focus on something negative, because that’s not what we want the universe to bring us. What we attract is reflected from our thoughts.
We must ask our wants and wishes to the universe. Once we put it out there, there’s no need to keep asking, only to keep our desires at the forefront, keeping our minds focused on outcomes we desire. Our messages – energy wavelengths, are sent forth to the universe from thoughts and/or words.
We must align ourselves with what we want, to make our visions become our reality. Intense worrying and negative thoughts about doubts about if we’ll be receiving, blocks the energy we’ve already sent forth for our desires.
The way we receive will be in unexpected ways.
So, what wishes shall we focus on? Think about what it is you want, and then think of all the wonderful things and possibilities that could open up if your manifestations came to fruition. Concentrate on how great it will make you feel, and quite possibly how others will feel too from such great bounty. In order to receive, we must keep connected with our desires, and believe they are coming, don’t dwell on it, just believe, and set our good intentions forth.
When relaxed, and at peace within, then take action by asking for something. Honest intentions put out to the universe will come to fruition. Manifesting a tangible outcome comes from the Law of Attraction and believing. And it takes more than just willpower and positive thinking.
How to Manifest:
Focus on something you want to happen in your life. Visualize your desire in vivid details. The premise of manifestation is not asking in question form, eg: – I want, I wish for, etc. . . . rather, acting as though you already have your desires. In essence you are giving thanks to the universe for your desire in a form that states that you already have your desire. For example: You don’t say, “I wish I had a million dollars”. Instead, you focus on the fact that you already have it, and how good it will make you feel, all the possibilities you can do with that money. You can visualize the money in your bank account, purse, wallet, etc. You can say, “thank you for keeping me abundant financially, I am abundant with all I need to be happy and healthy with all the money I need”. By living what we wish for and believing it, will bring it.
Manifesting is about letting go of control and allowing ourselves to become the magnet from the universe for what we desire. It’s all about energy, and where we put it. It goes with the old adage – what we give off in energy is what we receive. Just like low vibing people will remain living in a low vibing lifestyle, being high energy in vibes we give off to the universe will always attract back the vibe we give off. If we are feeling as though we are lacking in some aspect of our lives and tend to be jealous of what others have and wondering why our life isn’t like that of someone who seems to have it all, those are not positive thoughts for our own life, hence, we will only get back more of what we give off – and what we don’t want. The universe will always deliver to us, people, situations, and outcomes that match our vibrational frequencies. Remember, we are always manifesting with whatever thoughts are on our minds, so please remember to keep your thoughts positive! We must feel like we’ve already attained what we desire, like believing in something that hasn’t yet been proven.
How Can I put forth my wishes?
You can verbally ask aloud, or you can write down what your manifestations are, and of course, you can meditate on them. Many people like to use a vision board using clippings and images of their desires to add to their ‘wish stories’. There is no right or wrong way to manifest, only that we keep our desire in mind as though we’ve already received, while we’re waiting to receive, by staying in the present and feeling abundant.
Visualization is one of the most important parts of manifestation. If you can’t allow yourself to visualize your hearts desire, you aren’t helping it manifest. Visualize how this object of your desires will make you feel, focus on that feeling. Let’s say it’s a new job we’re wishing for. Use all the senses to help manifest this desire. Picture your office, chair, plants, view, desk, colleagues, etc. Picture yourself at that desk, the color of your chair, how it feels to be there, etc. Then repeat on your desired thoughts often. Manifesting is believing that you can think your dreams into your visualized reality, because we can. Manifesting is based on the concept that we tend to go where our thoughts lead us in life. Our mindsets shape our thoughts and ultimately, our behaviors and what we receive.
The 369 method of manifestation is based on divine numbers and a practice used to keep our attentions at our forethoughts. It consists of writing out our desires three times in the morning, six times during the day and nine times in the evening.
The law of attraction is one of the 12 universal laws of hermetic philosophy. It’s based on the thought that the energy we give out will come back to us, very much like karma.
Give it a try! Start by writing your desire(s) on a piece of paper in a positive manner. I do this myself and revisit my written down desires monthly to check up on what I’ve achieved from my desires. Typically, they always fall into place for me because I give it my thought attention a few times a day. Here’s an example of an ongoing desire I’ve always had, but has become a thought constantly on my mind for the past year:
I want to go to Spain, I used to say, when I go to Spain . . ., or, I am going to Spain. I haven’t booked a trip yet, but have spent plenty of time searching out the places I’d like to go in Spain, and lately, it has been on my mind bigly, particularly in the past year. For the last year I have begun saying, when I go to Spain . . . My intentions to go in the past year got muddled up because of other’s people’s circumstances that were beyond my own control, yet the desire didn’t leave just because original plans got foiled. Now, the universe is flashing signs at me related to Spain – songs, commercial ads, conversations coming up about travels to Spain, even books I’m coming across. I know in my energetic soul I am going even though I’m not sure yet where in Spain, or when exactly, but opportunities are coming my way. In fact, one of my new friends from the gym asked me a week ago if we should go to Spain together because she’s always wanted to go there. You see? The universe keeps hearing me talk and dream about Spain and has sent me a new friend who shares the same desire. This is a great example of how keeping the intention alive eventually becomes a reality.
I hope this article has given you reason to put your attention on what you what in life, not on the things you don’t want, and that anyone can manifest their best outcomes by keeping focus on abundance we have as opposed to what we’re lacking.

About D.G. Kaye
D.G. Kaye is a nonfiction memoir writer who writes about life, matters of the heart and women’s issues. Her intent is to inspire others by sharing stories about events she encountered, and the lessons that came along with them. She loves to laugh and self-medicate with a daily dose of humor. When she’s not writing intimate memoirs, you’ll find her writing with humor in some of her other works and blog posts.
Kaye’s childhood kept her observant about her surroundings. Growing up in a tumultuous family life kept her on guard about the on-and-off-going status of her parents’ relationship. She began writing notes, and journaled about the dysfunction she grew up in. By age seven she was certain she was going to grow up to become a reporter. But life has a funny way of taking detours. Instead, she moved away from home at eighteen with a few meager belongings and a curiosity for life, finished university and changed careers a few times along the way, always striving to work her way up to managerial positions. Her drive to succeed at anything she put her mind to led to having a very colorful and eventful life.
Ever the optimist, D.G. conquered quite a few battles in life; health and otherwise, and her refusal to accept the word ‘No’, or to use the words ‘I can’t’, keeps her on a positive path in life. She hopes to inspire others with her love of telling stories with lessons to empower others, by sharing her own experiences.
In 2021, she lost the love of her life. “When the grief overcame me, I found my only way to move forward was through my writing (that book currently in the works) and communing with others who understand this journey. Through this and my own search for seeking comfort, I began podcasting – Grief, The Real Talk. This is a podcast for those of us who’ve worn the shoes, and for all those who wish to understand the journey of a griever.

One of the reviews for Twenty Years After I do
Twenty Years: After “I Do” is a memoir by D.G. Kaye regarding her 20-year marriage to Gordon, a kind man 20 years her senior. While I believe the author wrote this book for people in a similar situation that have a spouse considerably older or younger, I think it is an essential read for any married couple.
Having read previous books by this writer, I knew I would get honesty and humor—two elements that make any read better. Kaye doesn’t try to sugarcoat anything and describes the many challenges married partners face, particularly in her situation, having a much older husband.
Some priceless nuggets included the importance of a sense of humor, communicating about and listening to each other’s problems, giving each additional space to follow individual hobbies and passions, and being flexible enough to take on different roles over the years.
I liked that there were so many relatable topics—health challenges, hearing loss, and depression, just to name a few.
