How to build the energetic foundation that can hold and sustain your biggest successes.
Good morning and welcome back to the Beauty and Positivity Podcast. My name is Alyssa Skinner, and in today's episode, we are going to discover exactly what it is that is required from you to live your dream life. What does your dream life require from you? Who does it require you to be? And so we're going to go over how to build the foundation of the version of you that holds the dream life. Because the foundation you currently have cannot hold your dream life, otherwise, you would already have it. So let's say someone goes into the gym and they have a goal of wanting to be able to deadlift 180 pounds. They don't go into the gym and say, okay, I'm just gonna think positive and I'm just gonna tell myself I can deadlift 180 pounds and I'm gonna write it over and over again in my journal. This is where manifesting your desires and thinking positive actually becomes lying to yourself. And I don't think this is talked about enough. I think that positivity is kind of hijacking manifestation. It's not about that. Yes, positivity is included, but it's not about lying to yourself. Tony Robbins says it perfectly. You can't go to your garden and say there's no weeds, there's no weeds, there's no weeds. While you're staring at weeds in your garden, this is lying to yourself. So the manifestation will never actualize if you are doing this. If you are pretending to ignore what you actually believe. You have to rewire your beliefs, which, if you are wanting to rewire all of your limiting beliefs, release them and reprogram your brain to believe what you want it to believe. I'm coming out with a course in the next couple weeks. I'm so excited to release it. I'm gonna teach you the step-by-step on how to manifest, the step-by-step on releasing your limiting beliefs. So keep an eye out on my social media for those updates. So when you're trying to manifest your desires, you can't just think positive. You can't go into the gym and say, I'm gonna lift 180 pounds today. I'm just gonna think positive about it, right? The foundation has not been built yet. You first must be able to deadlift 135 pounds and then 155 and then 165 and 175 and then 180, right? Only once the foundation has been built, the muscle memory has been built, the vibration to literally hold your manifestation and sustain it should be built first. So then can that person lift 180 pounds? I use the gym as an example because it's very easy for our brains to understand. We can't just go into the gym and pick up any random amount of weight. We all can comprehend that we have not worked up to that point yet, right? This is the exact same for manifesting more money. It's the exact same concept for manifesting love, the same concept for manifesting health and wealth. So when it comes to manifesting a million dollars, and you're like, I've tried manifesting a million dollars, I've journaled that I'm a millionaire 10,000 times, and I visualize winning the lottery so much that I know exactly what I would do with it if it ever happened. Well, if you are struggling to hold$3,000 a month, meaning you can't manage the current amount of money you have, it's managing you, then there's no possible foundation for a million dollars to sit on your foundation. It cannot hold that amount yet. The first time I heard this around money, it just clicked for me because I was not managing my money well when I was younger. I would go my whole, you know, last week before my paycheck without money. And so I was not delegating all of my money. I didn't know where it was going. I was just swiping freely. I didn't have a budget plan or a financial plan. And so I could not properly hold more money because there was not there was no foundation to bring in more. So once the foundation is built, then can it hold what you're trying to manifest? So let's say you're you're manifesting your dream partner, and you want someone who's patient and kind and loving, they make you feel safe, they make you feel protected, they don't abandon you when things get hard or when you're not your best self. They're loyal, they have a great career, a great head on their shoulders, and they volunteer in their free time and they help others and they take a moment to look in the cashier's eyes and say, Thank you. You know, someone with a big heart. What foundation are you holding of yourself to attract this type of person? What vibration are you holding? Are you the kind of person that your dream partner is looking for? You must first become the version of you that you wish to have in a partner. And so let's say you're manifesting your dream life in general. You just want to be able to wake up and know that you're abundant in your bank account. You want to feel healthy. You get to do Pilates in the morning or go to the gym. You walk your dog in the afternoon because you're not in an office all day. You can grab your match at any time of the day that you want because you don't have a boss or you work for yourself, maybe you own a business. Whatever your dream life is, it requires a foundation from you to be able to sustain it. So, what foundation is required in you to be able to sustain your dream life? There are so many stories of people winning the lottery and going bankrupt and they're actually in a worse spot than they were before. This is not a coincidence. This is because of the vibration and foundation that they held when they came across that money. So if you if you do manifest your dream life or the large amount of money, and you don't first change the foundation, it will all fall apart. There is not there's no good standing. So you must be able to sustain this manifestation. And that is why when you go into the gym, you work up to the amount of weight that you want to be able to lift. Anyone could throw out their back and get the weight off the ground the first time, but you there's no way you can sustain that. So working at it one by one builds the foundation, and we all have the answers inside of us. What does that look like? What should we be doing right now? Start doing it. Become the version of you that can hold it. There's something in your mind, something specific that you're thinking, I know I keep saying I'm gonna do that and I haven't, I keep saying I'm gonna start that, keep saying I'm gonna, you know, create this habit or start doing this every day, and I just haven't yet. That is the piece of you that is required for your next level. So if your dream life vision is you doing Pilates in the morning, then go sign up for a Pilates class. Embody that today, embody that tomorrow. If you have large investments, invest five dollars today. Most people listening on Spotify can say, yes, I have five dollars to spare. And you might be like, what's the point of five dollars? It's not about the amount of money it's going to make, it's not about the result, it's about the foundation. If you are one, if you want to be someone who invests their money, you must create this habit first. You must become the kind of person who invests every time they get paid. This is embodying the identity that you want to have. This is how you build the foundation. You start to do it now, even if it's small, even if you are still too nervous to go into the gym, but maybe you take a walk outside, or maybe you do a home workout. This is simply building the foundation, it is not a waste. And so allow yourself to do those small steps. That's you literally building brick by brick the foundation to hold your bigger dream. And so if you want to be someone who is meditating, you know, uh frequently or they journal frequently, then start working on that spiritual and mental hygiene now. If you want to be someone who reads, purchase a book now and start reading. It's just about the decisions you make. Your whole life up until this point is a reflection of choices that you've made, and the choices have built the current foundation that you have. But this is a good thing because this also means that you have control over it. This also means that you can change it at any time, simply with a decision. I myself am gonna go ahead and do this journal entry today. I would love it if you did too. The question I'm gonna write in the journal is what foundation is required from me to sustain my dream life? We'll see what answers come up because the answers are already inside of you. You already know, it's subconscious, so just let it come up and write whatever comes out. And you will begin to look at your life differently. You will become, you will begin embodying this new identity. And the new identity is what holds the dream life. You are no longer settling for less than what you desire. It's 2026, it's January, it's the very beginning, and this is the perfect time to build that foundation. So let me know in the comments if you do this journal entry and if you liked this episode. I'm sending you so much love and success. Have a great day. Bye.
