Day 1 of 21: Manifesting Challenge
Personal Diary
Hi Loves & Besties!
My first journal entry on the Gabby app’s 21-day Manifesting Challenge is open to all subscribers. The remaining will be “Aligning Besties” exclusives. If you’d like to join and honor with me a monthly coffee, please click below.
Each day of this challenge is comprised of an audio lesson, a lesson journal prompt, a meditation, a meditation journal prompt and a recap of the day’s takeaways. You may write your journal prompts in the Gabby app in provided spaces or in your own journal. You can always revisit your journal entries on the journal calendar in the app.
For a more comprehensive overview of the challenge, check out my Recap post here.
Day 1 Journal Entry
Lesson: Get Clear On Your Desire
The first lesson lecture and journal prompt was dedicated to creating your own desire statement as a way to manifest. This is a 2-part journal entry.
Here’s my desire statement:
I desire financial abundance during this transition period and beyond. I want to manifest steady monthly real estate sales while obtaining new financial partnerships, collaborations, sponsorships and opporunities with my creative endeavors with Aligning Mom blog, The Mocktales Lounge podcast, etc.
The second part for the lesson exercise prompted me to elaborate my desire statement further and to write it in “present-tense” as if it was currently happening.
Here’s my present-tense version:
I have a steady flow of real estate business. I am closing 1-2 deals per month. My listings are selling, my sellers listen to my advice and my buyer clients are in great financial positions and are finally purchasing a home. Business is smooth sailing. I speak with confidence and operate in an organized fashion.
Meanwhile, my creative projects are growing in audience size and attracting compensation in various ways. I am consistently publishing weekly posts to Aligningmom.com and gaining new subscribers including paid subscribers every week. Companies that align with my values are offering me worth-while compensation for review write ups, mentions for affiliate marketing and even visual media posts such as pictures or videos. I am even working on a publishing opportunity with Hay House.
The Mocktales Lounge has grown in subscribers on Youtube, Spotify & Apple Podcasts. We have regular guests on our show. We work with brands we love for financial compensation, which has allowed us to hire a video editor.
Meditation Activation
This first meditation was not your usual meditation. I had to look at myself in the mirror and repeat affirmations from the guided audio. The intention is to activate worthiness.
Here’s my reflections:
When I first looked at myself, I told myself I look like shit.
I knew I was out of energetic alignment when I said that to myself. Regardless I continued to nit-pick at all my imperfections.
While repeating the affirmations Gabby set forth with breathing in a specific way, my energy shifted. My internal dialogue shifted…
I declared seeing my creative income replace and surpass my real estate income. I gained so much clarity around book reviews and related journal entries — and also health & wellness mobile apps too. I felt confident and assured in a natural way. I know this is who I am and what I love. I thought about all the people I would help through my writing. The influence to have someone pick up a life-changing book that would improve and heal them for themself and their children.
Then I looked at myself in the mirror again and thought how cute I am. Seeing myself for the first time again in a different light.
