Are you manifesting a bright New Year?

A 2023 Tesla?

A marathon-ready body?

Dollars instead of crypto in your bank account?

I hope not.

Oh, sure, manifesting is “in.” Hashtag trending, in fact!

Indeed, you needn’t look far. The purveyors of manifesting challenges and courses are lining up and standing by to swipe your card.

For 37 bucks and a few minutes a day, you can (finally) learn to do it “right.

Would that it were that easy.

It’s not.

I’ve built five successful businesses from scratch. Each one took time and a dirty four-letter word: Work.

Twice I’ve run the Grand Canyon from rim to rim to rim. Both times required months of discipline and training.

I’ve stood on some of the highest summits in the world. All of them have required meticulous preparation, and skills honed over decades.

None of it involved manifesting.

So here’s my invitation to you as you stand on the threshold of 2023: Be a creator, not a manifester.

Leave the manifesting to those who have 21 days (or more) to waste, hoping that something will turn up.

Decide what it is you really want in the year ahead. Create a concrete actionable plan that will get you there; and then start. Take small consistent steps toward your goal every single day.

Perhaps it’s finding a different job; launching a new program; building a new business; searching for the love of your life; running your first 10k. (Or maybe it is working toward a Tesla!)

Whatever it is, begin it. “Boldness has genius, power and magic in it,” Goethe wrote.

Will you falter? Will you stumble? Might you fail?

Yup.

But keep your focus on your vision; keep your focus on what’s working. What you focus on you’ll see.

Will it be easy?

Not likely. Things that are worthwhile usually aren’t.

But, as Jim Rohn once said, “Don’t wish it was easier wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge wish for more wisdom.”

Cathedrals are built one stone at a time.

Stay steady; stay the course.

You are the co-creator of this magnificent gift that is your life.

Be that creator.

Happy New Year.
