Manifestation isn't Enough!

You must do the work! Look, the hustle and the life you want are not free, you must pay a price and the price is the HUSTLE!
Too many times we find ourselves manifesting and forgetting the most important rule of all, work. Whether or not you believe in a higher being that can bless you with all that you want, one must not negate the fact that the work must be put in. In this day and age, the hustle is expedited. You must be the first to market with anything and everything that you do because just like you there is someone out there working twice as hard to get to the market sooner.
Ask God for blessings but know this: God will bless his strongest servants of life with what is asked for. Blessings are in direct correlation to the amount of work one can place in any type of system. It is rough to continuously believe in yourself while putting in the work on a daily basis and not realize the building blocks of this castle you are building. I sincerely believe that if you develop a strong belief in yourself you can begin to develop the strong suit to block out all distractions.
You've heard of the term "Rome wasn't built in a day" right? Well what people fail to mention, is the rest of the quote "Rome wasn't built in a day but every day it was being built"-Mohamad-N. Taleb. Most of the time we do not see what we are building because we are too focused on the final goal that we forget about our current present. Allow yourself to celebrate your small wins on a daily even if you have not yet accomplished what you are building. Getting the goal is amazing but you must learn to celebrate the journey you are embarking on. Here is one thing i'Il want you to do next time you adventure out on a journey of yours that involves Manifesting & the Hustle
Identify the End Goal you have
Place Month Markers for yourself that would help mark certain timelines that need to be achieved.
Stay off social media (will explain why below)
For every manifest that you do, allow your hustle to enter your timeline
Speak to yourself when you are working in words of affirmation
Forgive yourself if you do not meet your short-term goal
Always remember, Manifestation without the Hustle is absolutely nothing!
Now, one of the reasons I ask that you stay off of social media is because of the comparison factor that we all fall into. We all have different timelines in life that life gives us and it is not helpful if you're continuously comparing yours to someone else. Your story is your story regardless of where you are in life.
It's not where you want to be but where you should be.
Now your friends may have found ways to be successful in their domain that may have you feeling a certain way but that does not mean you lack success. Rather you have not yet found your way to what you deserve. It's okay to Immerse yourself in emotion even if you are an alpha male though. Learn to develop an understanding of why you are feeling the way you are as this usually helps you figure out the faults of your non-successes.
Now if you are using social media for motivational purposes then by all means do so however be very weary of the negative mental effect it can have on you if you do not control your mind properly. The overbearing content released on a daily basis will most definitely have you feeling overwhelmed taking you away from the focus you should be placing on your manifestation.
For those that are taking their manifestation process seriously, know that you must be disciplined in all aspects. The art of the hustle does not come easy to everyone however we are capable of achieving anything that we set our mind to. Your goal must be one that you are obsessed over making you live and breathe your day-to-day activities. The distractions around you are built to stop you from becoming the best version of yourself and break the discipline that you have built. Do not give into the temptation of any kind which hinders your mindset and alters your manifestation process. You must not break by any means necessary however if you do, follow the below steps to have you back on track
Immediately acknowledge the shortcoming
Accept your current position
Forgive yourself for the discipline break
Create a plan to get back on track
Stop all distractions from your entering your life
Begin to speak to your subconscious in a positive manner.
Now, this is key to understanding the connection between the two. It is never something you are born with but rather a trait you can build over the years of your life. Like a strand of DNA, Manifest & Hustle are intertwined within our being however we must look for this strand and master it.
Okay, so you may have read this far and are asking what can i do right now that can change my mentality and essentially my life. Well, understand that no one is going to give you anything and you must go out there and work.
Hustle outworks talent any day of the week!
Take into consideration some of our most famous singers or artists, they outworked the strongest of talents to the point that their life became their work. There comes a point where it starts seeming as if it's effortless talent but it really isn't. What people don't see is the hard work they're all putting in day & night to master this combination. Your hustle must outweigh what you manifest for the manifestation only asks for a
possible blessing but your hustle gives you that tangible piece of validation you are looking for.
It may take you a day, a month, a year or a decade however do not stray away from your goal. In this day and age, it is key that you stick to your guts and your sixth sense no matter how crazy or preposterous it may be to the public eye. Your vision is only yours and no one else will have that 20/20 that you see for your future.
Ask for your blessing and manifest the right ideas into your subconscious because if you're working twice as hard as you are manifesting, the results should come to you sooner than later.
Your subconscious is listening to you and you don't even realize it...
