You CAN use your power to attract all that you need. I do it every day! Read all the posts in my <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\">Law of Attraction in Action Series<\/a> to see how.<\/p>\n<p>Writing down your intentions makes them more concrete. Doing writing exercises helps you think more clearly about what you want and can help keep you posted. Therefore, as part of this series, I include writing exercises you can use to help the Law of Attraction work with you to manifest the goodies you want. My Writing Exercise #1 was to write down a list of your desires and read it out loud each night.<\/p>\n<p><b>Today I want to explain how writing can help you manifest a very specific desire<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>Think of what desire is important to you right now. Write it down at the top of the page under the heading, &#8220;I Intend to Manifest:&#8221; Then write down how you&#8217;ll feel when you get it and what it will be like. For example, <b>if you want a new job, detail what it will feel like<\/b>. <\/p>\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How much money will you make? <br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;What kind of tasks will you be doing? <br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Describe the people you&#8217;ll work or interact with<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How will doing this job make you feel?<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;What will your workplace look like?<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Any other details you can think of about the job you want<\/p>\n<p><b>If you want to manifest a romantic partner<\/b>, write down details about the person you want to attract:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How does he or she look? <br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How does he or she treat you? <br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;What are special aspects of being with this person?<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How will you feel being with this person?<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;How will your life be better?<br \/>\u2022&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;List all the qualities you&#8217;d like in this person.<\/p>\n<p><b>The more details you write down, the better.<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Add to it as you think of more. You might not manifest it for a while, even for years. But the more you focus on what you wrote down, read it aloud and get excited about it, the more positive energy you put out to the Universe for the Law of Attraction to pick up on. Then, when you&#8217;re ready to receive it, what you wrote down can become real. <\/p>\n<p>See all the posts in my Law of Attraction in Action Series <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/2009\/01\/Law-of-Attraction-in-Action-Series.html\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Please leave comments under my posts so we can stay connected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is post 112 in my series on the Law of Attraction in Action.

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start &amp; Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=453"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/453\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
