Writing a goal down is the first sign of its manifestation. It has begun its transition from the morphogenic field into the realm of form and experience. Many ideas come and go, and some may even gestate in our minds for a while, but goals that are written down have actually begun to manifest.
When we first have an idea
for something we want, it's like planting a seed in our mind; but when it's
written down, it's like the seed has germinated and the first tiny green leaves
are poking out of the soil. From that point all that's required are regular
doses of sunshine and water, which is our attention and effort.
Some Law of
Attraction teachers talk about “dream boards” or “vision boards”, which are simply
goal sheets with pictures. You may like to cut out some pictures from
magazines, or print some from the web – for example, houses or cars you like,
and places you want to visit – and stick them on your goal sheet. Or you can
draw or paint pictures, or take your own photos!
