Write it Down, Make it Happen

Have you ever written down a list of goals or things you wanted to do, only to later realize that everything had been accomplished on the list? Using this basic principle of setting your intention of what you want to have happen in your life, writing it down, focusing on the outcome, and being clear about what you want can make your dreams come true.

The book Write it Down, Make it Happen is full of examples of this practice of writing things down from celebrity stories to personal stories, from techniques to daily practices, from exploration to becoming committed to the process. For example, you can use this writing technique to identify things you want, or you can use writing to help you first identify the questions to be asking and define your goals. You can even use this writing technique to work through fears or other feelings regarding the process.

You can write down what you want as an affirmation, as a scenario, or as a list of goals or things to do. You can keep them all in a journal, on loose paper, on note cards, or even scraps of paper. The only rule is to put the date on whatever you write down.

Whatever the approach you want to take, writing it down will begin to create a dialog with the subconscious. This dialog will help you refine an understanding of what you want in your life. Once refined, you can make it happen. How? There’s an element of faith on how things manifest once you’ve written down, but not entirely; it’s part refinement (so you know what to go after), part affinity (drawing to you want you want), and part synchronicity.

Jim Carrey once wrote himself a check for $10 million dollars “for services rendered” and now is one of the highest-paid entertainers in the industry, getting $20 million per film. Begin your own practice of writing it down and making it happen.
