Someone once told me, “Whatever it is you want, just think about it.”
Think and think and think.
And as surely as day follows night, that which I have thought about will be drawn into my life—be it answers, friendships, health, peace, security, change, or anything my soul desires.
Supposedly, this is the law of the Universe.
At first, I was skeptical. How could simply thinking about something bring it to me? Surely, life is more complex than that. Action matters. Effort matters. Reality is built by more than just thoughts, right? But then, I started paying attention.
I noticed how, when I dwelled on my problems, they seemed to multiply. When I fixated on what was missing, the void grew deeper. But on the rare occasions when I allowed myself to imagine good things—really picture them as if they were already mine—something shifted.
Small signs. A conversation with a stranger that gave me exactly the encouragement I needed. A random opportunity appearing just as I was thinking about a new direction. An unexpected solution to a problem I had been worrying about for days.
Could it really be that simple?
I decided to test this so-called law of the Universe. I began setting my intentions more clearly. Instead of just hoping for better days, I visualized them. Instead of merely wishing for meaningful friendships, I imagined what they would feel like—the laughter, the deep talks, the loyalty. Instead of just wanting peace, I sat in stillness and invited it into my spirit.
And slowly, things started to align.
I won’t pretend it’s magic. The Universe isn’t a genie, and wishful thinking won’t replace action. But I now understand that thoughts are seeds. What we plant in our minds grows roots in our reality. If we nurture thoughts of abundance, gratitude, and possibility, our world begins to reflect that energy.
So, I’ll keep trying.
I’ll keep thinking about the life I want. I’ll keep believing in the power of my own mind. I’ll keep trusting that what is meant for me will come, as long as I make space for it.
Because maybe, just maybe, the Universe is always listening.
