Happy Wednesday!
In just under ONE week, on Tuesday, September 28th, my new book, 5-Minute Manifesting Journal: Focus Your Mind, Raise Your Vibration, and Turn Your Dreams Into Reality, goes on sale. This was a really fun and challenging book to write. In truth, this is a book that YOU will write because it’s a journal designed to help you create a simple, daily 5-minute writing practice to co-create the reality that you’d like to see for yourself.
Can get real for a sec…
In truth, I don’t really love the word, “Manifest.” I think that too often that word abdicates responsibility for doing the work necessary to co-create what you’d like to see in your life. Also, the word, “Manifest” is sometimes used as a weapon to demand that the Universe behave in a certain way and if it doesn’t, that same person threatens to give up on life or faith in the Universe. That’s straight up blackmail. Instead, this book is an approachable program that helps you to invest your own sweat equity into the life that you’d like to build for yourself as you learn to partner with the Universe. I like to think of manifesting as a cosmic chess game. This book helps you co-create what arrives in your life by encouraging you to clarify your vision for what you want, for refining your ability to know what to ask for, and learning how to ride the wave of “YES.” This book also invites you to practice raising your vibration to attract the kinds of things you’d like to see, and to create a ready relationship with gratitude, one of the strongest facilitators of creation. This daily 5-minute practice exercises your ability to work together with the Universe to create what you’d like rather than abdicate or dictate to the Universe what you feel you deserve.
Another concern I have with the way that the word “Manifest” is used frequently lies in the fact that it often does not acknowledge the role that privilege plays regarding the concept of manifesting. Though manifestation allows you to connect with the powers of your mind, real-world inequalities and privileges related to race, gender, age, physical ability, and access to financial resources still exist in the external world—oftentimes resulting in more opportunity for some and greater obstacles for others. In this book, I invite you to consider the role that privilege plays in your own life, and whether there are ways you can be an ally for others and contribute to positive change in the world. In this book, I explore the idea that manifesting is less about getting material things and more about becoming the kind of person that you are destined to become.
How This Journal Works
Each day, this journal provides space for you to write about what you’re grateful for, what you are manifesting, and what you are reflecting on. To inspire you each day, I’ve written tons of brief prompts and/or practices to get your pen moving, as well as with an affirmation for you to repeat to yourself while completing each page.
Just like flossing your teeth every day, there is enormous benefit in a simple and consistent practice which, in time, slowly but inevitably provides massive benefit. Plus, if you are working toward a big project or realization you’d like to see in your life, a small and consistent practice like those in this book gives you the structure and framework to help you attain what you’re looking for—inch by inch— until you realize your goal.

All the best,
Scott
