“There Is A Luxury In Self-reproach. When We Blame Ourselves, We Feel That No One Else Has A Right

“There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves, we feel that no one else has a right to blame us. It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.”

— Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray (via philosophybits)

CELEBRITIES ON MANIFESTING

JIM CARREY

“I would visualize having directors interested in me and people that I respected saying, “I like your work.” I would visualize things coming to me that I wanted and I had nothing at that time but it just made me feel better. At that time, all it really was for me was making me feel better. I would drive home and think, “Well, I do have these things. They’re out there, I just don’t have a hold of them yet but they’re out there.”

“I wrote myself a check for $10 million for acting services rendered and I gave myself 3 years. I dated it Thanksgiving 1995 and I put it in my wallet and it deteriorated and deteriorated. Then, just before Thanksgiving 1995, I found out that I was going to make $10 million on Dumb and Dumber.”

LADY GAGA

“It happened around 5 years ago but it’s sort of like a mantra. You repeat it to yourself every day. “Music is my life. Music is my life. The fame is inside of me. I’m going to make a number one record and the number one hit.” And it’s not yet, it’s a lie. You’re saying a lie over and over and over again but then one day, the lie is true.”

OPRAH WINFREY

“Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life, because you become what you believe.”

STEVE HARVEY

Like attracts like. You have to understand: you are a magnet. Whatever you are, that’s what you draw to you. If you’re negative, you’re going to draw negativity. You positive? You draw positive. You’re a kind person? Most people are kind to you…If you see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand. This is so true.”

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER

“When I was very young I visualized myself being and having what it was I wanted. Mentally I never had any doubts about it. The mind is really so incredible. Before I won my first Mr. Universe title, I walked around the tournament like I owned it. The title was already mine. I had won it so many times in my mind that there was no doubt I would win it. Then when I moved on to the movies, the same thing. I visualized myself being a famous actor and earning big money. I could feel and taste success. I just knew it would all happen.”

LMFAO

“At the same time, it could be what you don’t want as well. Why am I always broke? Why don’t I get girls? You’re going to attract that. You’re imagining yourself being broke, you’re imagining yourself not attracting girls and that’s going to be your result. If that law is true, then you might as well just think about what you want. In a nutshell, that’s what we did.”

JAY-Z

“I believe you can speak things into existence.”

JENNIFER LOPEZ

“Your thoughts create your life, and so you have to think positive thoughts,” All the time – you have to force yourself to think positive at times.  And so I do a lot of affirmation… “I am whole. I am good on my own. I love myself. I love you, Jennifer. I love the universe, the universe loves me. God loves me. I am youthful and timeless at every age. I am enough"”.

STEVE HARVEY

“Like attracts like. You have to understand: you are a magnet. Whatever you are, that’s what you draw to you. If you’re negative, you’re going to draw negativity. You positive? You draw positive. You’re a kind person? Most people are kind to you…If you see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand. This is so true.”

ALBERT EINSTEIN

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”

MUHAMMAD ALI

“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.”

CONOR MCGREGOR

“If you have a clear picture in your head that something is going to happen and a clear belief that it will happen no matter what then nothing can stop it. It is destined to happen. It’s perfect.”

Witchcraft #15

If you're really into writing or get those burst of writing creativity. That can be used within your craft. Writing a short story can be a type of manifestation/intention work. Write about someone overcoming a problem your facing. Or receiving/becoming something you want. It can be a powerful tool in your magick.
