Desire is something that springs forth

from your life experience.

It's not even something 
that you have to think about,

it's something that takes place on a
subconscious and a conscious level.

When desire springs forth within us,

we desire to see that manifest physically.

The conscious creation

and subsequent physical manifestation 
of whatever it is that we want

is a big part of physical life.

Disclaimer (pause to read):

Take Action!

The process of manifestation takes place

on both a non-physical 
and a physical level.

In other words, 
the process of manifestation

happens on a mental level,

happens on an emotional level,

happens on an energetic level,

happens on what we would call 
"a vibrational level",

but it also happens on a physical level.

And this is the level that most people 
completely leave out or forget.

In other words, 
people forget that action

is such a huge part of manifestation.

They also forget that action

is a big part of what they came 
to this physical life to participate in.

Something very important 
to understand about life

is that it doesn't matter 
how much information you have,

if you don't apply it.

It doesn't matter how much mental 
and emotional processing you do

if you never make a change.

It doesn't matter 
how much you want something,

if you never take action
towards what you want.

So many people fall into this trap

of using their spiritual practice,

and yes this includes self-help

and self-development 
techniques or practices,

in order to separate from 
their physical life,

to withdraw from it,

even to completely escape from it,

rather than to use 
their spiritual practice

or self-development practice

in order to enhance their physical life.

So many people fall into the trap 
of learning more

and more and more

and doing more and more mental
and emotional spiritual processes,

they imagine that what they want 
will somehow spontaneously

appear on their doorstep.

That it will require no change, 
movement or action on their part.

But this erases one of the main purposes

for being incarnated into 
a physical body,

in the first place.

Unless you have resistance 
to things like changing,

to things like moving, 
to things like taking action...

those things are part of 
what feels so joyful

about life itself,

it's part of the thrill 
of being physically manifested.

By learning things,

by becoming more aware,

by figuring yourself out 
on an emotional and mental level,

by visualizing

so as to bring yourself
into alignment vibrationally

with whatever it is that you're wanting,

you are making it so that you create

such a strong point of attraction,

that all people, places, things, 
circumstances, events and resources

that are perfectly in alignment

with you attaining 
that thing that you desire,

are coming to you.

But you still have to take action.

Another way of saying this 
is that you need to allow

the more non-physical
things that you do

to compel you towards taking action

in the direction of what you're wanting.

It doesn't matter if you know 
that you need exercise

and that exercise is critical
for your physical,

mental and emotional health,

if you keep coming up with excuses

to not actually 
take action and exercise.

It doesn't matter 
if you want a romantic relationship,

and keep doing visualizations 
in order to manifest one,

if you commit all your action 
to working from home

and watching tv series 
in your apartment alone.

It doesn't matter if you do 
all the shadow work in the world

to realize that your parents 
acted and still act in a way

that's counterproductive 
to your progression,

if you keep on living with them 
in their home.

It doesn't matter if you want to be
financially free

and learn all about finances

and know that you have to 
start to save up

and spend your money on things 
that make you money,

if you keep piling up stuff 
you don't need in your house

and living from paycheck to paycheck.

It doesn't matter if you read 
every book there is to read

and watch every tutorial 
there is to watch on surfing,

if you never go out into the ocean, 
rent a surfboard

and paddle out to get on an actual wave.

Your physical actions must align 
with what you are wanting

in order for manifestation 
to be assisted by you

instead of prevented by you.

If you are unwilling 
to actually do something

like change, move or take action,

you're making it much harder 
for the universe to line you up with

or allow you to converge with

those people, places, circumstances, 
events and resources

that essentially bring 
what you are wanting

into a state of physical fruition.

Not only that,

if you are unwilling
to actually do something

whether it's change or move 
or take some action,

you're making it very hard 
for the universe to use you

if you are a necessary ingredient

in somebody else's 
manifestation of their desire.

Action, or let's call it, inspired action

is naturally meant to arise

as a byproduct
of changing your perception

of gaining new information.

But sometimes this does not occur.

And what a lot of people don't know is

if this does not occur,

it makes your life worse, not better.

it's a common assumption 
that most people make

that if you do enough mental 
and emotional processing,

or if you just know everything 
you can possibly know,

your life will somehow
spontaneously get better,

but here's something 
I never want you to forget:

if you plan on not making a change,

not moving and not taking action,

in fact, committing yourself 
to things like awareness,

to learning more,

to doing mental emotional processing

but making no change as a result of it,

your life will get much worse;

much worse than it was before.

In other words,
if you plan on not taking action

you would actually do better off 
just positively focusing on what is.

For example,

imagine that there's a woman 
who's in an abusive relationship;

if she gains more awareness,

she will become aware 
of just how abusive her environment is.

If she starts to heal 
on a mental and emotional level,

she will become more and more aware 
of what her needs actually are.

If she focuses on what she wants

i.e a safe relationship,

the distance between where she is 
and what she wants will get bigger.

If she takes no physical action 
to change the relationship

or to exit it in search of a new one,

being in it and staying the same

will get more and more painful.

She will feel more and more unsafe,

more and more deprived of her needs,

and emotionally worse and worse

because the gap between herself 
and what she's wanting

will grow and grow

until she reaches a point 
of total desperation.

it is critical to understand that if you
do not take actual physical action

based off of the things you learn,
the awareness you gain

and emotional and mental 
healing that you do,

your life will get worse, not better.

All the forces that be

will be pulling you in the direction
of what you want

like an unassailable current,

and you will be turned upstream
against that current.

That's not gonna go very well for you.

This is what suffering is all about.

Suffering is what happens 
when we have already desired

something more, something else...

and yet, for one reason or another,

we are holding ourselves in what is;

we are "staying" in the way it is,

in the unwanted.

When we do this,

we are preventing our own expansion,

and when we do this,

we are essentially inviting 
the escalation of our pain,

because when we're holding ourselves 
apart from our own personal expansion,

the universe can only escalate;

it can only take that heater 
and turn up the heat.

Hearing all of this,

it may benefit you 
to think about what you want,

and to ask yourself this question:

What is in the way of me taking action?

One of the main reasons 
that people don't take action

is because they're terrified 
of making a change.

This is very easily seen

when we know we need to make a change,

and we may even know exactly 
what change we need to make

and yet, we just can't 
make ourselves do it.

If you think it would benefit you 
to understand this more in depth,

watch my video titled:

The Real Reason Why People Don't Change

One common excuse 
that I hear people giving

for why they're not taking action
or not making a change

is because they just don't know 
what action to take.

When you're caught in this loop,

oftentimes what you're doing 
is looking for a right action.

So it's important to understand

that there's no one right action to take.

In other words,

it's not like the universe 
is sitting here testing you

to make sure whether or not

you know what 
the exact right action is to take.

People often think 
there is some miracle action

that will bring about what they want,

and they have to know 
what that miracle action is,

before taking any action.

This is not true.

No such thing exists.

There is no magic way,

even though every way ends up
inevitably being magic.

What there is is steps.

And anyone who brought about 
anything through action,

must take those steps

that are unique 
to their own path of achievement.

All this being said,

don't sit there and be passive,

don't be passive to finding out

what action steps 
you could potentially take.

This means, consult people 
who might have a better idea

of action steps you might take.

This also means,

look at the people 
who already have manifested

whatever it is that you 
are currently wanting,

and look back and try to identify,

or even ask them

what those steps were

that they took 
to get to where they are today.

Become an expert on the people 
who already have what you want.

And should you ever come up against
an action step

that no person has ever taken before,

don't be afraid to be a pioneer.

There always has to be somebody 
who takes a step first,

and maybe that person 
is meant to be you.

No matter what resistance 
stands in the way

of you taking action,

do whatever it takes 
to resolve that resistance,

because if you don't,

your life will be starved of results.

To wait for what you want 
to happen to you,

is a passive and powerless way to exist.

It is not how you meant 
to come here and exist.

Knowledge is power,

but that power is useless 
if you don't translate it to action.

Motivation is useless 
unless you take action on it.

This means act on what you come to know.

Act to bring about what you want.

After all, in the physical,

knowledge without application,
is incomplete.

Just like visualization without action,
is incomplete.

It's like an in-breath
without an out breath.

Have a good week.

But I want to personally thank you 
for taking the initiative

and having the bravery 
to step into the space of awareness

not only for yourself, 
but for the benefit of those around you.
