Why you are not manifesting your dreams and desires
“You’ve got to be before you can do, and do before you can have.” Zig Ziglar
Maintaining balance between being and doing is a delicate dance. Be – do – have is the formula Zig Ziglar gives us in the quote above, but it’s very common to go about things in a do – have - be way. The other trap I’ve seen people fall into is the be - have trap, totally forgetting about the do!
I used to live in the world of 100% doing and didn’t care for the airy fairy land of being. ‘Just get on with it’ was my motto. Realising this wasn’t working too well for me, I started opening up spiritually, learning about universal laws and spending time on my state of being.
In a total rejection of my old ways, being equalled good and doing equalled bad which is just not true, they both have their place and work wonderfully together when you know how. I have come to see that many of us living with an awareness of the importance of our state of being are not taking enough action. Thinking (and I don’t believe consciously) instead that we can jump from being to having, skipping doing or taking action.
