1. Feel happy for no reason. Do not require positive circumstances to create your happiness. Allow your happiness to create positive circumstances. You don't need a reason to feel good.
2. Live simply. The intensity of the feeling is more valuable than the intensity of the details. To think of happiness like intoxication, the drunk of the non-drinker who had 5 beers is worth more than the slight buzz of the alcoholic who had 10. Keep your tolerance low and mild results can generate greater feeling. If the details of your life cannot compare to others, your feelings certainly can.
3. Invest in your happiness. Exercise, eat well, go on walks, do yoga, jump on trampolines, remind yourself what you have to be grateful for each morning. Create habits that provide lasting good feelings so you don't have to consciously shift a flat feeling into a good one but naturally feel good all the time.
4. Explore your feelings without justifying them. Like I said in 1, whatever the reason may be that you are feeling a certain emotion, it's not your job to figure it out. Explore the emotion itself, not the thoughts you come up with to rationalize it. Allow the feeling to stand apart from its labels. Monitor your emotional state closely and consistently. Do not fear bad feelings, do not chase good feelings. Observe them.
5. Remember the basics. Focus on the basics. Create a strong foundation. Surround yourself with good influences, teachers, books and lessons that show you how to get what you want. In five years your income will be the average of your five best friends. But income isn't everything, what kind of lifestyles do they lead? You will also live the average life of your five best friends. Whenever possible, surround yourself with influences that have what you want. Make sure to remain teachable, which means you've never learned something enough, you're always excited to learn it again and learn more about it. Don't think you've grasped anything. Only that you're grasping it. The moment you think you're teachable enough, you've lost your teachability. Always strive to learn how to be more teachable. Always keep up the basics. Perfect Practice Makes Perfect. Find the right practices and repeat them. Find good books and lessons and repeat them. Leaders are always readers.
6. The Cardinal rule of Manifestation: If your attitude's right, the facts don't matter. No matter how impossible a desire may appear, if you have the attitude that you can get it--or yet better, the attitude that you've basically got it already, life just needs to sort out a couple details first--then you can have it. Our view on reality is very narrow. We see a tiny, tiny fraction of everything going on around us. We aren't smart enough to know what's possible and what isn't. You don't have control over that type of knowledge so don't pretend to. All you control is your own attitude. Adjust your attitude first as if you're living the life you want to live. Many of the details will remain the same anyway, right? You'll still take showers, do laundry, take care of your kids, etc. The difference is not the details but the way you imagine they'll make you feel. So feel as if you've found the right details already.
7. General Desires are better than Specific Ones. Why do you want, for example, a new car? Why do you want a new partner, a new job, more money, better health? Because you believe it will make you feel better. So what do you really want? To feel better. There are different ways to feel better, such as feeling secure and protected, or feeling content and satisfied, or feeling just plain grateful to be alive. For these types of happiness, honing in on the specific feeling you desire most or believe is most lacking from your life can be helpful. I'll give you a hint though, the feeling you could probably use the most of is gratitude. You aren't smart enough to know what in life will deliver the most gratitude. Getting caught up in specific details can inhibit the world's ability to manifest the best possible results. You may meet someone you like and get the sensation, "I want them!" But you don't know them, what you want is that good feeling the interest sparked inside of you, so focus on that feeling.
8. Feel better one step at a time. So now that you know the most important part about living the life you want to live is having the right attitude, should you automatically shift your attitude exactly to that? Sure, but you've got to go up the elevator one step at a time. Anger can feel a little bit better than debilitating depression. Impartially observing an uncomfortable emotion can feel better than ignoring it. Through observing our emotions, we allow them to change. When we run from them, we often inhibit their change. Focus on feeling just a little bit better, a little bit of relief, a little bit of absolution, a little bit of contentedness, a little bit of gratitude. You can try to instantly feel as amazing as you dream possible, but you may find you can't sustain it and still have the laundry waiting for you of working through the less easy emotions.
9. Don't set a timer. Let it come when it chooses to come. When you broadcast a good feeling, the universe automatically works to reciprocate it. However, just because all the events are starting to fall into the right place, that doesn't mean it will happen exactly when you say. You remember the scene from Benjamin Button when all those little details had to happen in precisely the right way to make sure the dancer was hit by the car? If one person hadn't dropped something, and another hadn't answered their phone, then none of it would have happened? Manifestation works like that. Your broadcast will immediately adjust the timing of all these little situations throughout the universe, but it still takes time for the manifestation to emerge from these little details.
10. You're broadcasting all the time, anyways, so manifestation is already working. Monitor your feelings closely, especially after incidents occur. Three people could get in a car accident, and one will be scared, the other will be frustrated, and the last will think it was just his luck. The car accident itself was only a vehicle to deliver the emotion you are manifesting, and the same incident can cause a wide variety of emotions. Monitor exactly how something made you feel, and then ask yourself if you were dealing with that feeling in any other facet. Perhaps you stub your toe, and you think, "I didn't do shit to manifest this!" Think again, how did it make you feel? You'll find there probably is something, maybe your father is sick and you're getting frustrated dealing with the insurance company. Maybe your kid isn't living up to your expectations. These manifestations, despite being negative, can actually be very positive because they can reveal negative feelings we aren't addressing. It's also worth mentioning that when you are broadcasting positive feelings, there's a possibility that you may hit a minor obstacle to divert you from a worse experience. If you're feeling intensely grateful most of the time and your flight gets canceled, this may have been a way to protect you from a plane crash, for example.
11.Your tools are Consistency and Intensity. You'll get whatever you really, really, really, really, really want. You'll also get whatever you really, really, really, really, really don't want. You'll get whatever you think about most of the time, most of the time. You'll get whatever you think about some of the time, some of the time. Consistency and Intensity. Feel it strong enough, and often enough, and it will come faster and truer.
