Some time ago I attended a workshop / retreat entitled “Let us manifest.” The information and exercises that guided us were by far the most effective I have experienced of all the manifestation workshops and seminars I have experienced.
What made it different and more powerful was this concept: Before you can manifest or create what you want to have in your life, you must become the person who already has it.
This is called “modeling” in some life improvement schools. As you become that person who already has what you want, your vibration changes to align with your desire. And, as the Law of Attraction shows, those things of similar frequency magnetize each other.
I’m here to tell you that modeling is not always an easy achievement. Most of us have no idea who already has what we want, much less what that person is like. I’m in that group, and not in the group of people who know who their role model is and also know everything about them.
So after thinking about my role model until I got a headache, I finally realized that my role model didn’t have to be a real person. That fact made the project easier because most of the people I wanted to use as a model had some trait or belief that I found to be contrary to one of mine. This detail then colored how he viewed all of his other actions, beliefs and values that he wanted to emulate … and generally not on the bright side.
That little hurdle handled, the next hurdle was creating my model to have a guide. This was easier as the method I came up with is something I’m very good at: asking questions.
If you want to try this very powerful technique to manifest your ideal life, or any part of your ideal life, here are some of my questions that you can use too. They can generate new questions as you use them or you may want to change them in some way. Well, go ahead. After all, it is about creating your desires and this creation is limitless. (This list is in female, so if your model is male, of course, you will want to change the questions to reflect that.)
-
Who is this person who has what I want?
-
Is this person real or is it my creation?
-
What are your five core values in life?
-
How do you prioritize when making decisions?
-
What kind of groups do you belong to … or do you not belong to any group?
-
What are your friends like?
-
What gives you pleasure? Does it make her cry? Does it lead you to anger?
-
How did you get what you wanted?
-
When you had setbacks, what did you do?
As you continue to learn or model someone who already has what you want, more questions will no doubt arise. The more details you have, the easier it will be for you to know what you need to do to become the person who already has what you want.
