The law of attraction is the best framework for goal setting. Envisioning something that you want, and working every day to get it. But most have the equation backward. They think if they do, they will be, then they will have. Or worst yet – if they have, then they will do and then they can be. But the perfect equation for achieving everything in your life is Be – Do – Have.
BE the person who will DO the things to HAVE a life. That is the perfect equation to achieve anything you want.
Let’s break down why – and let’s start with the consciousness levels:
Having is the lowest state of consciousness. People identify themselves with what they ‘have’ in their life. There materials possessions such as money, material needs, relationships, and status symbols. They think they are these things, but these things are just that: Things. They actually don’t do anything for you to accept just appear in your life.
Doing is the average state of consciousness. In this state, we identify ourselves with what we do. We base our identity on our actions. At this level, we use hard work, effort, and will power to fulfill ourselves. Doing is the action – the process – which is the work – but also not the full picture.
Being is the highest state of consciousness. Thoughts at this level tend to manifest rapidly. The hallmark of this level is desirableness. There is no need to want anything because everything in our lives manifests effortlessly without any conscious will or effort. All based off of what we have become. Being is everything – it’s the true identity in our life instead of just thinking that the ‘things’ are what identifies us. Being is the true state of consciousness.
Now that we know the levels of consciousness – let’s explore the order of why these are important. If you mix these up in all the possibilities there essentially 3 ways to flow this.
HAVE – DO – BE
DO – BE – HAVE
BE – DO – HAVE
Let’s now look at each equation in-depth to see why there is only one true answer here.
HAVE – DO – BE assumes you need to have the thing, to do the things, to be the things. Meaning – if you want to be a millionaire, you have to have a million dollars before you are going to do the millionaire things that actually make you a millionaire. There are many people who think this way. It isn’t until they have the thing that then they will be able to do the things to be the thing. They need personal possession – the have – the lowest form of consciousness before they start to act. But here is the kicker: You won’t ever HAVE the thing unless you DO the thing. So to think you are going to HAVE the thing before you DO the thing is absolutely absurd – and based on sheer luck for those people who ever get it. And even if you happen to get it – you will lose it – because you aren’t in the right mindset (BE) to keep it. This is why some people who win the lottery go broke again. Sure – they got they HAVE – but the never did the DO to BE, and hence – go back to who is broke.
DO – BE – HAVE is the next one, which is better than HAVE – DO – BE, but still missing the mark. The DO – BE – HAVE are those people who think they can work until they have whatever they want. This use to be my own mindset. I use to think if I just DID enough – I could have whatever I wanted. If I just worked a little bit harder, all my dreams would come true. Isn’t that the American Dream? Work hard until you have what you want? If I just DID enough, I would BE who I needed to be, and then I would HAve everything I ever wanted. And it worked – for the most part. Except I never kept what I earned because DOING doesn’t mean you are BEING the person you need to HAVE the things. Here is a real-world example: When I was 25, I made a goal to make 6 figures by the time I was 30. I was given an opportunity to get into sales, and wouldn’t you know it – I made 6 figures the year I turned 30 for my first time. But it wasn’t easy. I was working close to 60 hours a week, traveling 15 days a month, including weekends – and was more stressed than I have ever been. I was DOING the things to HAVE the thing, but the missing piece – BEING – wasn’t there. Subsequently – the next 2 years I was back down below 6 figures because I wasn’t BEING the person I need to be. That is the issue – you can DO the work – but if you aren’t ready to BE the person – you aren’t going to HAVE the thing – and just because you are DOING the work – doesn’t mean you doing the BE work.
BE – DO – HAVE is the golden ticket. If you BE the person that you need to be, you will automatically DO the things that are needed (which now are easy) and then you will HAVE everything you need. My issue with my 6-figure story is I wasn’t BEING the sales professional who earns 6 figures. I wasn’t ready to BE that person. I hated the long hours, the cold calls, the travels – pretty much all of it. So while I did HAVe what I wanted, it was a huge cost. It wasn’t until I finally truly BECAME the person who was ready to do that – and then I was able to DO that to HAVE that. Long hours were shortened, travel was now a fun experience, cold calls mean making more connections. Once I was able to BE the person – everything to DO just came naturally, and after that – I HAD everything. You have to change the inside (BE) in order to change the outside (DO) before you can HAVE.
As you move forward with your goal setting, your manifesting, or whatever you call achieving everything that you want in life – make sure you focus on the right equation to achieve it. Before you can HAVE it – you need to DO it – and before you DO it – you need to BE it.
You need to BE it. You need to emulate all the factors of the person who will do the things to have things. Once you master that – there is literally no limit to achieving whatever you want.
But you have to BE first.
