We shape and mould our lives with our thoughts, our expressions
and our actions, says Blanca Greenberg.

Are we truly co-creators of our lives? Are we really capable of creating our life’s script? For many, the idea that we can reshape our lives to reflect our deepest dreams and desires is quite simply, impossible to accept. For, if we are really creators, then, why is it that our life’s circumstances are in direct opposition to most of our most treasured desires?

The answer to this question lies within our inability to recognise our divine creative powers: We shape and mould our lives with our thoughts, our expressions and our actions. Thus, whatever we focus our thoughts on whatever we choose to verbalise and the actions we set into motion are the attributes that construct our reality.

Yet, as soon as you read the last paragraph, you uttered a gasp. Why, how could this be? You search within your thought process and discover that you are always wishing to be happier, healthier and in peace. Why, then, are you still experiencing the manifestation of contrary results?

The answer is simple: Are you expressing what you are thinking? Are you reaffirming your desire to be happy by striving to maintain a more positive outlook in your life? Or, do you sabotage your own creations and desires by constantly complaining and whining to others about your unfortunate luck?

Our creative powers must work in concert in order for the universe to deliver and manifest our dreams and desires. Compare your creative thoughts to a computer mouse console. This component will only execute your commands; it will click a page open, close or erase a file...

But, if you present it with different commands at the same time, it will become confused; the mouse will freeze up and stall the computer! So do your mixed bag of thoughts, expressions and actions confuse the universe from receiving a clear message from you!

If you truly desire to manifest and shift your creations to be reflective of your highest goals, a good exercise to explore is what I refer to as a “Dream Garden.” Begin by purchasing an inexpensive journal or notebook.

Initiate the creation of your dream garden by drawing a pretty setting of a real garden: trees, flowers, grass, a sunset, etc. Do not worry if you are not an avid artist...simplicity will do just fine. Next, draw or cut out little pictures that represent goals that you desire to achieve or obtain.

A picture of a house can represent a desire to own a home or find a new place of residence. A picture of a loving couple can represent the ideal relationship you seek; a computer picture can represent a better paying job. If you cannot find an appropriate picture, you can simply draw a circle and write in what you desire to manifest.

Then, just as you would nourish and water a real garden, nourish your dream garden with love and trust. Look at your dream garden and know that you have the divine abilities to manifest your deepest desires. Ask your divine spirit to embrace you with a knowing trust.

And, reinforce the manifestations of your dream garden by expressing your intentions to achieving your goals. Do not become discouraged by the negative comments of others; if you trust in your divinity, you do not need the approval of anyone else!

As you continue through this process, trust your intuition to pursue any actions that seem to fit in concert with your desired goals. Perhaps, you may be guided to call someone you haven’t spoken to in a while. Or, you may be led to visit a place you have never been to before.

The guidance of our intuition can often be subtle; the purchase of a new book, the viewing of a television programme or simply waiting on a checkout line may be the bridge of opportunity that may present you to the path that will lead to the fulfillment of a desired goal.
