Taking Inspired Action: First get into Alignment and THEN take Action.

In That Order. Every Time.

If you're reading this then you must have some level of interest in the Law of Attraction. I know I do. I've spent a great deal of time reading up on and listening to as many of the great teachers on this topic as possible. I enjoy consuming the content and I enjoy even more putting it into practice.

Today I'll be focusing on the role of alignment with regard to manifesting. As a statement, reading that back is almost ridiculous because, well...

Alignment is Everything.

"That's great, but what is 'alignment' exactly?" I hear you ask.

Well, as I understand it, alignment is the state of being whereby you (the you that is reading this right now, the you that you identify as) and your higher self (also known as your inner being/ source energy, etc.) are consciously in sync.

Your higher self is always in sync with the universe (or that which many of us call God), so when you are in sync with it, you are in sync with the universe. This means you are in flow with the entire universe and the God force that controls all things. That's alignment. If it sounds powerful and like a big deal that's because it is.

How Does Alignment Affect Manifestation?

Alignment is like the power behind the process of manifesting because it moves you closer to all the things you want. That's because being in alignment means you are freely flowing toward everything that you're manifesting and all those things are flowing to you. There is no resistance slowing either side down. It means you've surrendered to the universe because you know that it knows exactly what you desire and it has a universal view of where you are relative to those desires.

The universe knows the best, fastest, and most satisfying route to bring you and your desire together. It knows the shortcuts.

But you have to trust it.

You have to trust it, let go, and know that the universe is working its magic behind the scenes. Soon, you'll start to experience this magic for yourself in the form of hints, urges, and nudges in a particular direction. Your alignment means that you can hear the universe as it speaks to you and guides you. This is where the trust comes in. Follow these intuitive hints and they will take you to the path of the joyous unfolding of your manifestations.

These hints and nudges from the universe are unlike ideas that you have by yourself and they are easy to identify because they feel different. They feel guided, empowered, clear, and exciting. Most of all they feel good. Really good. Energizing. Life-giving.

Have you ever had an idea so good you just had to get started on it right then and there, and then as you were implementing it, you felt so alive and more energetic than ever-even if the thing you were doing should have been tiring?

That was an idea from the universe and you were aligned enough to receive it. Then you were smart enough to put it into action. The results of such action are always wonderful. Things just seem to fall into place. The output feels exponential, driving you closer to your desire.

If you try to achieve the same result without first getting into alignment and following the divine guidance you receive, that is, if you try and achieve the same results through your effort alone- you will get nowhere near the same results and it will feel like a grind. It will feel like work and it won't give you the same joy.

You know those people that just seem to have the best of luck? Everything they touch turns to gold, they go from success to success with seemingly no effort. Did you ever wonder what those people know that you don't? The good news is that now you do know- it's alignment. They don't work harder, they just utilize the power of the universe and work only when it's guided.

Once you know the power of alignment, you'll never want to take any action unless you know for a fact that you are standing in it. Not only because of the way it speeds up and magnifies your manifestations but simply for the feeling of it because the truth is that being in alignment feels wonderful.

What Does Alignment Feel Like?

It feels good. It feels like being taken care of. It feels like joy and love and ease. It feels like flowing with the energy of the universe. It feels like knowing that you are at the right place at the right time. It feels like knowing, truly knowing, that things are always working out for you. It feels like clarity. It feels like power. It feels like love. It feels like winning and celebrating. It feels like fun.

I could go on and on but I think you get the point. It feels good. So good in fact that the alignment is its own reward and the manifestations are just a bonus.

And the best part of this is that alignment is always available to you, whereas the manifestation may still be on its way.

So always seek alignment and savor the goodness of it to such an extent that it becomes your natural state of being. Do that and the quality of your entire life will change.

How do you get into Alignment?

Ah, the million-dollar question. It turns out it has a ten-dollar answer- feel good. You have to feel your way into it. In the above paragraph, I described what alignment feels like. Go back and read it again and try to really feel what each of those sentences is saying.

Alignment is a certain vibration where you just know that you are fully connected to your inner being. The methodology to get there will be different for different people, you will know best what will work for you. For some people it's meditating, for others, it's playing or listening to music. It really could be anything that makes you feel pure connectedness and bliss.

If that's a stretch for you today, just reach for something that feels better than what you're feeling now. Elevate your emotional state. If you're feeling very low, getting to a neutral emotional state will be a great improvement. For this, do anything that quiets the chattering in your mind and makes you feel present. That's good enough.

The important thing is to teach yourself to recognize, isolate and then maintain the feeling of alignment. We all have so many things that we allow to knock us out of alignment every day. You want to get so familiar with the feeling of alignment (or just feeling really good) that you recognize it very quickly when you're out of it. Then just feel your way back into it. Practice this until it becomes instinctual and alignment becomes your natural state of being.

When you begin to live life like this it really is like magic. You deserve magic.

Stay aligned,
