I recall one of my friends years back talking about a great new guy they had met.  He seemed to be just perfect.  As we talked it was all she wanted to discuss in of the possibilities the relationship was going to become such as: how much fun they would have, traveling together would be wonderful because he had such a good sense of humor and her father was sure to like him.  My friend was projecting into the fantasy of what it would be like with this new fascination.  Somewhere she sending a part of her energy to fantasize into creating a reality with this man.  Unfortunately what she was creating was not in the here and now.

Fantasies can be one of our biggest stumbling blocks because they are often to always not creating our life with them.  To fantasize can take us to places that is not about creating something in this reality.  What my friend missed with the fantasy was creating the future dreams to make her become excited.  To fantasize in order to charge up our adrenal glands is not a good ideal.  In fact it can become an addictive pleasure.  How much do people live in their fantasies and send a large part of their power to manifest in these unreal worlds?  Anyone read about Walter Mitty?

Instead of the world to fantasize we can visualize.  For example for those in love: what it felt like to be with the person, how it made their heart feel.  Then to take the feeling and let that sensation be with us.  It is not so much that the other person makes us feel that way but us remembering that warm love within us.   Most importantly to know we can live that love every day, regardless if we have a boyfriend.  It is why feeling like a million bucks in our personal life and being satisfied with the person we are will attract money to us.  We are communicating to ourselves and a higher source we are the energy of love or money, therefore it comes to us easier and we deserve it.

Even if we do adore someone; sharing with a friend the qualities that you like about the person, the experiences you had together and how you felt resonates the energy in the present, it supports our vision. As soon as we project how it will be in the future we begin to fantasize.  Placing our attraction for someone as just an energy and we are willing to let it grow from there is a visualization.  We are placing our energy and intention into something we desire, the difference is we our not into the outcome, we are putting the energy into the present creation.  Then we go about doing the things that best manifest it.   A much more powerful place.

Think of the vitality of ourselves as a cup.  What creates our vitality is the joy we have for life.  Each moment of our lives that we are internally joyous inside we are putting into our cup a life energy.  It comes from the things that help remind us that life is a wonderous journey.  We may get it from watching our children, petting our cat, meditating, walking in the forest, communing with a higher source, resolving an issue and more.  It is a self-acknowledgement of who we truly are.

The more we continue to put into our cup we are building a power within us, a vitality or power of creation.  One that helps us in our health but also builds an energy to manifest what our intentions are placed upon.  Enjoying our life is powerful.  It is a confirmation to a higher source that we deserve more.

When we have negative self-talk, or unconscious beliefs that work against us we are filling our cup with those energies as well.  The more we resolve this and get clear of who we are we have less conflicting messages to send to the universe of what we really wish to create.  This is just as important as filling the cup with the joyful messages.

We are building a muscle to stay focused on what we really wish to become.  We exercise it in a positive way and life comes to us.  Force, effort, anger and stress in creating our life are not the effective and fun ways to live.  We can choose something much more fun.

In generating our dreams we cannot follow but find.

In finding our dreams I do not like the symbolism of climbing a mountain, or a journey out to the sea in the unknown.  How about sitting still and a butterfly lands on your knee and gets your attention.

Dreams can change at any given moment.  Are you willing to give up “the dream” and have many dreams?

When you dream does your energy gently drift out of your body or do you stay inside of yourself.  It is the difference of dreams embodied and disembodied.  The power of generating a dream in this reality lies in you staying inside of you.

I like to envision my dreams in my heart and belly with my mind facilitating the parts of the creation deep inside of me.  Vision of the heart and power of the belly working in harmony, planting seeds of creation, not knowing when they will sprout!

Are all of my dreams created or brought to fruition? Not all in this reality.

Can we still be happy if some of our dreams are not created in this reality?  Our choice.

Some of our greatest failures are wonderful victories if we stay open and not close the door in regret.
