You Are the Creator of Your Reality
Let’s talk about manifesting. I recently took a vacation to New Orleans—a manifestation in itself, but we’ll touch on that another time. While there, someone recommended that I hit the casino. Now, I’m not a big gambler. I set a $20 max loss limit before I walk out.
But this time, I decided to have a little fun with my manifestation skills.
Setting the Intention
As soon as I walked in, I set my intention: My winning machine will have a peacock on it.
Now, I had never seen a peacock on a slot machine before, but that didn’t matter. I create my own experiences in this beautiful life, and I refused to let doubt sneak in. I spent a few minutes searching, staying positive, and reminding myself that if I didn’t find one, I could still keep my $20.
Then, I felt drawn to a machine with golden peaches. No peacock in sight. But something told me to sit down anyway.
Manifestation Magic Unfolds
As soon as I settled into my seat, I scanned the screen, and BOOM—there it was. A gorgeous peacock.
They say that once you truly understand your power, you won’t be amazed by your manifestations because you’ll expect them. But let’s be real—my mouth dropped, my heart raced, and joy overwhelmed me.
“Yes! I did it… AGAIN!”
This is one of my favorite things about manifestation. No matter how often it happens, it still feels like magic.
The Energy Shift That Changed Everything
I took that energy, put in my $20, and started playing.
- My first spin hit for 10 more plays.
- I won a few cents here and there, but nothing crazy.
- When I got down to $2, I started rationalizing: If I don’t win big, it’s okay. I manifested the peacock, and that’s enough for me.
- Then, I pleaded with my spirit team: Okay, help me out, y’all. Let me win something. I’m not asking for much.
But none of that got me a win.
Then I caught myself.
I shifted my focus away from lack and rationale and back into abundance and joy. I wasn’t here to plead or overthink. I was here to create. So, I focused purely on how happy I was that I had manifested the peacock in minutes.
And right then—I hit for $135.
I cashed out so fast you would’ve thought I robbed the place!
The Lesson: Align, Don’t Beg
Here’s what I want you to take away from this:
- You create your own world.
- You get what you put out.
- Pleading, doubting, and limiting beliefs don’t bring in your desires—your alignment does.
When I was in a state of expectancy and excitement, my manifestation showed up instantly. But when I shifted into lack and logic, the flow stopped. Once I refocused on gratitude and joy, abundance followed.
Quick Manifestation Exercise: Call It In!
Try this today:
- Set a playful intention. Pick something small but specific—maybe a symbol, an animal, or a certain phrase you want to hear.
- Let go of doubt. Trust that the universe is working in your favor.
- Look for signs, but stay detached. If you don’t see it right away, it’s still on its way.
- Feel the joy now. Act as if it’s already happened and soak up that excitement.
- Watch the magic unfold.
And when it does? Celebrate it. Expect it. Manifest again.
