There’s no single route to success.

But there are ways of making our lives better that may ensure successful endeavors. We can attract what we want in life by our mental attitude and positive perspective.

Each day brings different obstacles into our lives. Sometimes, it feels like we’re juggling it all. But when we take the most important pieces and only focus on them, we find ourselves juggling less. We then attract what it is we are meant to be by focusing solely on our values—when we choose what we give attention to. Our focus can actually impact or draw in more meaning into our lives.

People will tell us who we are our whole lives—only we can decide who that is, though.

Before we can change anything, we have to accept our lives. We have to be present and open our eyes to how things really are. We have to be willing to face it—the good and the bad.

Sit with your feelings. Decide what you want to do about it all.

If you’re not where you want to be in life, there’s still a chance—hope for you. You have to value your worth. You have to showcase it, and you have to show up. It doesn’t mean you’ll solve everything in a day. It does mean, though, that you can start.

People will want us to be a projection of what works for them. The truth is, we can only muster the most strength when we are authentic.

That’s how acceptance can serve us. When we accept ourselves most of all, we can become anything.

People will also want to control how we feel about that. They will say that because they couldn’t do it, we can’t do it either. The truth is we are not them.

You are you. Their excuses, fears, mishaps, and mistakes are not yours even though they are projecting them onto you.

We fear not that they are right, but that we are right. We fear that we can do it because that gives us some measure of responsibility with our success.

Nelson Mandela put it this way, “Our deepest fear is not that we are weak. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.”

Attracting what we want is no easy feat. It takes commitment to an idea of who we want to be and a resilience toward obstacles we face because we know our worth. This takes strength, dedication, and motivation.

It means we keep going. It’s about perseverance. Even when we don’t want to. It’s trusting that there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. It’s being our best self so we can attract the best things. It’s a decision not to give up, especially when we want to throw in the towel.

We must stay focused on our goals and have a willingness to do what it takes. Attracting what we want won’t be easy, but it will be worth it. It’s not about luck. It’s about hard work and how committed we are.

Manifesting our lives starts with one step: living it for the right reasons. Once we get to where we’re trying to go, what will we do for others? This will help us find peace along the way.

When we are at peace with ourselves, we can show up for anything. We have to accept ourselves and be willing to work with our flaws. We have to see flaws as beautiful parts of ourselves that we can turn around or let shine in their own ways. It’s better to be different than to be the same as everyone else.

When we are at peace with ourselves, we know we can handle the truth. This means we trust ourselves to do the right thing. We know we can handle reality because we have accepted what is. We don’t lie to ourselves, cover it up, or try to escape from it. We face it head-on and accept the facts while also knowing life can always work in a little miracle.

Our peace is determined by our values and living them to the best of our ability. It’s when we have nothing to hide that we have total transparency.

We don’t quit on self-growth and empowering others. There’s always room for change and more self-discipline. Our goals will always need refining and redefining. We will always need to be who we are, but there are always opportunities to grow.

Inner peace is important to overcoming any obstacle and for getting what we want.

Knowing what we want is also important.

So make a list of your values and determine how they impact your goals. What goals do you have in mind? Who do you want to be?

It doesn’t matter what others have to say about it. All that matters is that you are prepared to be that person. You have to let go of what you think you should be and embrace who you could be. Stop “shoulding” yourself!

So, what do you want?

Only you can decide that.

When you have a clear vision of what you want, you can better access it.

You might have to change some things in your life to get there, but it’s worth doing if it means you get there.

You can do this. You can become who you are meant to be.

You’ve always been that person. Attraction isn’t just about manifesting your future. It’s about waking up to who you really are. It’s authenticity in action. It’s showing up even when you struggle. It’s mindful living. It’s doing it for the right reasons. It’s surrendering. It’s purpose. And it’s all up to you to make it happen.
