TRUE NORTH

What do you actually want?

Not the sensible version. Not the one you've trimmed down so it's easier to say out loud. The real one.

This takes about ten minutes. By the end you'll have one desire and one believable route, written down, and you can start tonight.

Go big here. Next we'll break it into smaller milestones, but this one stays exactly as you wrote it.

Is this yours?

Four questions. It's entirely possible you come out of this with a different desire than you walked in with, that's the point of the page.

Why?

Five times. Don't stop early. Either this confirms what you wrote, or it hands you the real one underneath it.

Sometimes you run this and the answer is "I just want it." Full stop, nothing underneath. That's a real result and it's the end of the exercise.

Now say a how, for your first milestone

You don't need a how for the big one. Just for the first milestone.

One ordinary way that happens. Write it so it finishes the sentence "...by", like having my friends and family test and buy it. Then say it out loud and notice your inner voice. Did it argue back, or was there nothing?

FOR EXAMPLE
“I win the lottery” → argued (the odds, instantly)
“the universe will provide” → argued (nothing to check it against)
“I work hard and get promoted, managers make that money” → no argument (nothing. quiet.)

A HOW I COULD SAYDID MY MIND ARGUE?

You're not looking for a good idea. You're listening for an absence. Go more ordinary than feels right.

What can you actually do?

YOUR FIRST MILESTONE

Pick the 5 simplest things you can do to reach it. Signing up for a website or newsletter. Researching the cost of materials. Think SMALL, and aim for at least 5.

Scale it down into manifestation milestones

If your desire is 1,000,000 blue buttons sold, it's a lot easier to start with 10 and work your way up. So break yours into smaller milestones, biggest at the top, smallest at the bottom. Up to 15.

FOR EXAMPLE
sell 1,000,000 → 100,000 → 10,000 → 1,000 → 100 → sell 10

Write each one so it finishes the sentence "I am going to..." So sell 10 blue buttons, not just 10.

YOUR DESIRE

This one doesn't change. You're just finding where to start.

YOUR FIRST MILESTONE IS THE ONE AT THE BOTTOM

It should feel almost too easy to write down. If it makes you nervous, add a smaller one underneath.

And each milestone should feel believable from the one below it. If the jump feels too big, put one in between.

You just set your first manifestation.

That's steps one and two, properly, in about ten minutes. Most people never do either.

CLEARED

AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS

Read it out loud. If it sounds clunky, rewrite it so it sounds like you. This is what prints.

No deadline. That's deliberate.

A person, a sentence and a room can't be fact-checked by your own mind. A date can. And putting a clock on a route you didn't choose means every quiet week gets read as failure, which is how most people talk themselves out of something that was working.

THE FULL ORDER
YOUR TRAIN
YOUR FIRST MILESTONE
THE HOW THAT CLEARED IT
THE FIRST THING I'M COMMITTED TO DOING

Print it. Two pages.

Page one is your order: your first milestone, the how your mind didn't argue with, and the first thing you're doing about it.

Page two is your desire, why you want it, and every milestone between here and there.
