The realization that something is not as you want it to be is an important first step, but once you have identified that, the faster you are able to turn your attention in the direction of a solution, the better, because a continuing exploration of the problem will prevent you from finding the solution. The problem is a different vibrational frequency than the solution—and all thoughts (or vibrations) are affected by (or managed by) the Law of Attraction.

This is why I focus so much on identifying what you do want and then living it in your mind and like the monthly manifestation group I meet with to end on that note. In a book I’m reading at the moment, they call it “virtualizing” instead of “visualizing” as you want to experience it in your mind as if you are in the experience and living it completely, all senses plus emotions, not just watching a movie of it like you might do in visualizing. It’s a technique I’ve used for a long time, but I love their name for it.
When you’re virtualizing, and can keep on daydreaming your end result and ignoring the negative feelings your current situation brings up, you’re on the way to changing your reality for the one you are imagining.
Experiencing in your mind the way you’d like your life to be and feeling those feelings and expecting it to be possible and even likely, creates a channel for it to travel down towards you. You allow your dream to show you the first little step that you need to take to help make it happen (inspired action) from where you are, as well as orchestrating the people and resources for you to make it almost effortless to achieve your desired outcome.
Manifesting is 80% about getting the thoughts and feelings (and so, the vibration) right and only 20% about DOING to make it happen.
If it’s feeling too difficult, maybe you’re spending 80% on doing and 20% (or maybe none at all) on your thoughts and feelings, getting them to a place that is congruent with your dream or solution to your problem.
Abraham Lincoln is famously quoted as saying that if he had 8 hours to cut down a tree, he’d spend 6 of them sharpening his axe.
If you’re not feeling delighted and excited about every aspect of your life as you read this, take a moment to write down whatever it is you’re focusing on that is leaving you feeling scared, frustrated, sad, angry or insecure. Then write down the opposite of that on a fresh piece of paper. Burn the first paper – it has served it’s purpose and there’s no value in going over it again. Now turn to the statement of what you do want. Is it written in the first person, in the present tense? Is it written positively (stating only what you want and not what you don’t want)? If you get too much inner resistance (from your critical inner voice) and aren’t feeling happy or excited about what you’ve written down, try writing it as “I choose …” or “Wouldn’t it be nice if …”
Now get comfortable, take a few deep breaths to relax and begin to daydream. Get all your senses involved and really feel the emotion you expect to have in achieving this. Freedom? Peace? Excitement? Relief? Amazement? Passion? This is virtualizing it.
As you go about your day, come back to this daydream, flesh it out more, explore it and feel the feelings evoked by it. When you encounter the contrast in your current situation (the one you wrote about and burnt), purposely take your attention off of it and slip into your daydream and those feelings instead, enjoy knowing that whatever you are currently experiencing is on it’s way out of your life and what is coming is worth feeling excited about! And really begin to look out for the signs of inspired action that will be calling to you.
If you really get stuck in the negative feelings, I’d recommend using something like EFT to clear the feelings (Brad Yates is really fantastic and offers some wonderful free videos).
