You can manifest your wildest dreams even in your everyday life. What makes manifestation real is your ability and willingness to believe.  You need to believe and visualize what you want to bring it into your conscious awareness. -Miriam Schulman  What we’re exploring in this episode:  How you sabotage yourself when you’re not willing to believe When you get clear with what you want, you’ll be able to call it into your conscious awareness. How to open your mind to recognize when what you want comes your way[Text Wrapping Break]  We block our ability to manifest through a lack of belief. We don’t believe in ourselves. We don’t believe what’s really possible. We stand so firm on the very beliefs we should be questioning and end up undermining our own success.   The universe will bring you things when you get clear about what you want and the opportunities you’re looking for. You need positive belief and an open mind to recognize it when it comes your way.  Get Access to the Artpreneur Accelerator:  Pre-Order My New Book, Artpreneur  For full show notes go to schulmanart.com/231 ++++++++++++++++++++ 🎉FREE GOODIES!🎉 Don't forget to check out the Inspiration Place goodie bag.

This has been a really interesting talk. Finding out how the top end artists talk the language of the upper class clients. I need to listen to this again; I'm wondering how social media fits into talking to my prospective clients... is using social media targeting the wrong people? #theinspirationalplace #jeffreyshaw #miriamschulman #schulmanart
