There are dreams living and breathing in your heart and they matter. Some of them have never been spoken and some may even surprise you. What you dream about is important and these dreams need to be spoken out loud. It is in the act of writing them down that you breath life into them and give them an opportunity to bloom.

For the past many years I have been following Andrea Scher's lead and writing my yearly Mondo Beyondo list. This is a list of everything I dream and desire. There are no rules to what can go down on the paper. It is an opportunity to let go and dream big. The way it works is you set a timer for ten minutes and begin to put all your dreams down. You don't let the pen stop until the time goes off. There is no judgement to what comes up just space to put it down.

It is incredible to look back on my list and see some of the things I wrote down that I forgot about and how they have come true. Things when I wrote them I couldn't imagine ever happening. But that is the power of manifestation. When we write it down we begin to put it into motion and once it is in motion it is has the power to come true.

I encourage you to set aside ten minutes with your journal. Light a candle. Say a prayer to being open. Then let your heart spill onto the page all that it desires. Show up with out judgment and see what you unearth. You may be surprised.
