Beyond our obvious physical form, we are vibrational bengs, transmitting and receiving mechanisms, living in a vibrational universe , managed by law of attraction; and we are creating our reality by way of our thoughts. You think a thought, that thought radiates out to the universe where it is received by law of attraction, all cooperative components ( people, places and opportunities) are gathered together in order to create those desires, and with consistent practice, focus and positive expectation, your thoughts will return to you in the form of a physical reality - your Manifestation!
With that knowing, it will serve you to focus on/ think about the things that you are wanting so that you will attract it into your life experience. ln other words, tell your story as you want it to be and not how it is, particularly if "what is" is not what you are wanting to experience in your reality.
By telling the story as you want it to be, you are tuning/aligning/becoming a vibrational match to how your Inner Being feels (always positive and confident). When that alignment takes place between the physical you and nonphysical you, then , in that moment, you are occupying the perfect vibrational stance that allows manifestations to surely follow.
