Did you know that you have a hidden superpower for manifesting miracles?

This is a superpower you use every single day, and in fact… every single moment.

Your superpower is your attention!

What we put our attention on is what grows stronger in our life. 

Energy goes where our attention flows. 

The challenge is, we might habitually put our attention and focus on what’s going wrong in our lives. This is due to how our brains are wired–to look for the problem!

When our ancestors had to be on the constant lookout for threat, this part of our brains saved our lives. In our modern world, that part of our brains continues to be on the constant search for potential threats and problems. This instinct can still save our lives in times of danger, so it’s still an important part of our biology. However…  

As we go for our goals in our everyday lives, we must consciously retrain our minds to focus on expecting positive outcomes rather than negative outcomes. 

Otherwise, we’ll continue to attract stressful situations, as we’re a match for that vibration.

One great way to retrain your mind is to put your attention on the miracles that are already showing up in your life. For example, in our Your Year of Miracles program, we give our participants a Miracles Journal at the start of the year so they can track their miracles all year long. This powerful practice retrains the mind to look for the positive and attract even more miracles their way.

You can also give your loving attention to the miracles you want to manifest. Here are four ways to do that:

1. Thoughts: Put your thoughts on what you want to manifest, not on what you don’t want to manifest. Worry is actively imagining what you don’t want to manifest. Be careful of what you feed your mind and be aware of how much negativity you are letting in. Be an optimist—someone who understands that there can be issues, but knows they’ll find solutions.
2. Words: Words are powerful—choose them carefully! “I am” is one of the most powerful phrases in the English language. Speak of what you want to create rather than what you don’t want.
3. Feelings: The success that we want lives in an energetic vibration, and our job is to align ourselves with that energetic vibration. We connect to that vibration through our feelings. A few ways to put ourselves into the feeling state of what we’re wanting to manifest are:

   Acting as if: Act as though your intention has already manifested–this helps you to become an energetic match to what you want to attract.

   Gratitude: As you feel grateful for each step along the way, you move into the energy of greater and greater success. Be grateful in advance for what you are intending, as though it’s already happened.

   Visualization: Imagining, seeing, and feeling your outcome anchors the energy of it within you. You can use visualizations or vision boards to help you with this process. 

4. Action: We need to take persistent action to see our goals come into fruition. Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, are the creators of The Chicken Soup for the Soul series and Marci’s co-authors. Jack and Mark were turned down by 143 publishers, but kept going because they knew this book had to be out there. Because of they persisted and didn’t give up, they made it to the 144th publisher, and that’s who took a chance to publish the book. The rest is history.

Remember, just like any great superhero movie, your superpower can be used for good–or for evil. By using your hidden superpower for good, and focusing your thoughts, words, feelings, and actions on the miracles you want to manifest, you’ll be well on your way to seeing them (or something even better) manifest in your life .

“Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.” — Mahatma Gandhi
