How to create the best year of your life
Personally, I’ve never been much of a “New Year’s Resolution” person. Instead of setting goals, I prefer to set intentions. And my intention for the coming New Year is to create the best year of my life!
This year I intend to make feeling good and being aligned with Source my number one priority. Some of my other intentions include pursuing my happiness, growing my coaching practice and jewelry business, and moving to Maui. I have already done some of the energy work and can now go about my work of being happy, taking inspired action, and allowing the Universe to deliver my wishes.
If you’re inspired to follow my example of discarding resolutions and setting intentions, here’s how you, too, can create the best year of your life:
Connect with your Inner Being
Your Inner Self, also known as your Higher Self or Soul, is the non-physical part of you and can see your life from a larger perspective. He knows everything about you and what you want, and he knows the easiest path to get you there. Without this conscious connection, getting where you want to go is more challenging and the journey much less satisfying. If you prefer to take the path of least resistance, let your Inner Being guide you.
Set your emotional grid
An emotional grid is a process that Abraham-Hicks suggests we use as a means to manifest our desires. They teach that the grid is vibratory in nature and the starting point for creating what we want. It is the basis and framework of our demonstrations. Once the emotional foundation is established, the grid will fill up with all sorts of things that match our vibration.
To build the foundation for the best year of your life, decide how you want to feel throughout the year and choose positive emotions, such as happy, free, prosperous, confident, etc., to get the momentum going. I recommend writing them down in a journal or posting them on a vision board so you can remind yourself daily what your intentions are.
make your intentions clear
Once you’ve connected with your Inner Being and established how you want to feel, it’s time for some details. What would you like to achieve in the next year and why? What will bring you joy? If you’re not sure, your emotional grid is enough to create an epic year, but it’s a lot of fun to clarify what you want and watch it play out just as you intended. Again, I recommend writing it down and adding more details as they come your way.
Act on your inspirations
As the days go by, you will be guided by your Inner Being through impulses, synchronicity and your emotions (feeling good means you are moving in the right direction, not feeling good means you are going the wrong way). Pay attention and follow your inspirations as they arise. In the meantime, practice the alignment (meditation, appreciation, visualization, scripting, etc.) and go about your day with joy and a positive attitude. Being happy is fertile ground for your desires to manifest.
Enjoy the trip
Just like a painter or a potter, it’s fun to create and watch your ideas take shape. But there is more than the end result. As you anxiously await the manifestations of it to take shape, remember to enjoy the ride, for truly, that is where the satisfaction is. All the fun and joyous moments along the way are what life is all about. When you stay aware of this every day, you can’t help but create the best year of your life, every year!
