Whenever I find myself daydreaming, I am immediately taken back to my English class during junior year of high school. Don’t tell my mom, but hands down, it was the best class to completely zone out in and fantasize about my future. Daydreaming or spacing out definitely isn’t encouraged (as it can clearly serve as quite the distraction), but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t visualize our hopes and desires in our leisure time.
The more I learn about manifesting one’s destiny, the more I realize that visualization plays a major role. Picturing yourself achieving your dreams or visualizing a particular situation unfolding in your favor allows for the event to happen. Simply taking a few minutes out of your day to daydream or visualize what you want for yourself will help you to obtain exactly that. When you picture yourself succeeding, you will naturally feel more confident and secure about yourself, exude positivity, and be more attractive to other people and situations which will manifest into more opportunities. Essentially, we respond to our own positive energy by manifesting the picture we are holding in our minds and making it happen. If you can visualize it, you can actualize it. It’s that simple.
Every day I try to set aside some time (usually before bed) to daydream and visualize myself achieving a goal or pursuing something that I want to do (i.e. taking a relaxing vacation to Italy). The Universe truly does respond to your thoughts and vibrations, and it will start to make whatever you’d like to happen, happen. Through visualization and positive thinking, you can accomplish your goals and overcome obstacles in your life.
I always get such an adrenaline rush thinking about what my future could entail. These are the moments when I truly feel like I’m “high off life.” I used to look at the future through “fear goggles,” but realized that fear did nothing more than hold me back. Although some things about the future still give me some anxiety, I do not get nearly as worked up about uncertainty as I used to. If anything, I now embrace the unknown! We are all in control of our own lives and our own happiness. If we choose to view the future with a positive outlook and embrace it, we create numerous opportunities to attract even more positivity and prosperity into our lives.
I’m obsessed with this Rebecca Front Tie Romper Dress from Tobi . A dress and a romper? What a great combo! I love the soft pastel color and sophisticated design, which takes elegant to a whole new level. This piece is absolutely stunning and can be worn out for an intimate dinner, or paired with the right accessories even to a night at the opera or equally elegant occasion. This dress lends itself to a dramatic setting! Need I say more..
