You already know that love is an incredibly magnetic and unstoppable force. And falling in love – with a desire, a person, or an idea – fills us with a feeling of invincibility.
Bring to mind these powerful examples:
- The mother who lifts a car to save her child
- The lovers who overcome seemingly insurmountable odds to be together
- The entrepreneur who pours heart and soul into her business, and watches it thrive in return
Love enables us to accomplish miraculous things. And this is why it’s a great idea to fall in love with your desire. When you do, you open the door for that desire to manifest in your life in unexpected and magical ways.
These 3 steps will help you fall in love with your desires, well before they have manifested in your life. In applying these principles, you’ll magnetize the experiences you’re looking for in powerful and unprecedented ways.
Principle #1 for Falling in Love with Your Desire: Recognize that you already have a relationship with every person, outcome and experience that you desire to attract.
You formed a relationship with each of your heartfelt desires a long time ago. This relationship began the moment the idea first occurred to you. And you have continued to evolve, expand, refine, and amend that desire ever since.
Your relationship with your desire exists right here, right now. It is not a future experience that you’ll realize only after your desire manifests. Because from the moment you conceived this new and expanded reality, creative life-force energy began flowing toward it.
Look anywhere in nature and you’ll find that the process of creation is underway long before there’s an actual manifestation. For example, life force begins flowing to and through the unborn child from the first moment of conception. A seedling begins its journey toward full maturation the moment the seed is pressed into the ground. Even though the baby and the crop have yet to fully manifest, the process of manifestation has begun. And the same is true in the case of your desires.
Acknowledging what is already in the process of manifesting is the first step toward falling in love with your desires. As you flow your love toward those eventual realities, you increase their speed into your experience.
Principle #2 for Falling in Love with Your Desire: Through your deliberate attention and intention, you can strengthen the manifestation power of any desire.
Once you understand that you already have a relationship with your desires, the next step is to evaluate the state of that relationship. And to do this, you need only reflect on how you feel.
When you contemplate an outcome you’re working toward, does it feel pure and exciting? Do you light up when you think about it? Are you enjoying the ways it continues to evolve and expand? And do you appreciate all the ways that life continues to show you why you want this particular experience?
If so, these are very good signs! They reveal that you already have a loving and hopeful relationship with your unmanifested desires. And, if contemplating your desire evokes doubt or disbelief, this simply indicates that your relationship with it could be improved.
If your relationship with something you desire is burdened with disappointment or bad memories of past failures, take heart. Because with a little attention and intention you can turn this relationship around.
In order to continue evolving, your desire must be fed and nourished.
And the way you nourish your relationship with your desire is through your loving attention, imagination, and energy.
Think about it this way: If you had a great first date with someone, would you just leave that experience in the past and forget about it? No way, right?! You would relive every delicious moment of it. You’d probably bore your friends by rehashing every detail again and again. And you’d definitely spend time imagining the possibilities and daydreaming about what might happen next. In other words, you would let yourself fall in love with your desire, and enjoy every step of its unfolding.
By definition, the act of falling in love moves us out of our comfort zones and into a new and uncharted reality. Suddenly, we’re face to face with a beautiful new possibility for our lives. This can be exhilarating or frightening. Because we’re left with the choice to believe in what could be, or to allow doubt to stop us in our tracks.
To fall in love with your desires and speed their manifestation into your life, allow yourself to get swept up in possibility. Simply remind yourself that a powerful process of creation is now underway, and choose to surrender to that process.
Think of your desire lovingly, as you would anyone or anything you care about. Daydream about its eventual unfolding, and let yourself feel gratitude for having given birth to this desire.
Spend some time each day imagining how you’ll feel once your desire has been fully realized. In this way, you become an open channel for new ideas, resources and inspirations. By consciously, playfully, and lovingly flowing your energy toward any unrealized desire, you strengthen its manifesting power.
Principle #3 for Falling in Love with Your Desire: Give more air time to feelings of faith than feelings of fear.
Faith and fear exist at opposite ends of the vibrational continuum. Fear contracts our thinking and blinds us from seeing the path forward. And faith lights the many paths that could lead us to our desired destination.
At every moment, and with every thought and emotion we offer, we are breathing life into one of two realities: a reality that we dread, or a reality that we desire. By falling in love with your desire, you’re placing your faith in what is still invisible to the eye. And as you flow your loving energy toward its inevitable unfolding, you summon powerful, creative forces to your aid.
