How to live a creative life and manifest
I was sitting at the office, but my mind was on my future vacation in Japan. I looked at the clock and realized it was time for my next meeting. Why do calendars only provide meeting options in 30-minute chunks? I spent half the day in agenda-less meetings that probably could have ended much sooner than 30 minutes, or even worse — 60 minutes.
Even though I was physically in the office, my mind wanted to be almost anyplace else. When you are not present or fully engaged in what you’re doing, your energy moves into another place and time, which is often why we feel so depleted when we’re not engaged. The gas in the engine has been given away to another car, and another person.
Before I started my meditation program, this happened almost 50% of the day or more — and while I had achieved some of my goals, I couldn’t sustain that level of manifestation. In other words, I always felt “stuck” in a frame rather than living in it.
Before we can actually manifest anything, we actually have to “be here now”, and be embodied and grounded.
