You are the creator of your reality. If there is something you desire in your life, ask for it!

We have heard this statement hundreds of times, but most of us have no idea what that really means. So, I broke it down in five steps for you.

1. Know what you want and have a strong desire to get it.
Visualize your life as if your desire is completely yours. First spend some time getting clear on what you desire. Journal, meditate, exercise. The idea is that you focus clearly on what you want without the noise in your head. Another way to do this is to journal about your ideal life. Get specific about how you want your days to look.

2. Ask for it.
Once you are clear on what you want ask a power greater than yourself to assist you in creating what you want. Say it out loud. Say it to a friend. Post it in a group you are in. Get it out of you and into the universe.

3. Believe you can have what you ask for.
Believe you can have what you ask for. Have faith you will receive it and free yourself from doubt. Your belief must be as strong as your desire. You can live your dream life, you just have to believe it is possible.

4. Express gratitude.
Allow your heart and your mind to be filled with gratitude often. Start a practice of gratitude daily. It could be creating a gratitude jar or setting a reminder on your phone, or maybe each evening you can sit with your family and each share one thing you are grateful for.

5. ACT
Action is most often the missing piece to the manifestation puzzle. You must do the work to make this happen. Come up with a list each day to get you to your goal. If you want to start a successful business, focus on ways to market yourself and get clients. If you want to create a new relationship, find ways to be visible
