Happy Manifestation Monday, friends! Grab your favorite cup of tea and take a moment to breathe in some positivity. Today, I want to share a little story about the power of small beginnings and how those tiny steps can lead us to our biggest dreams.

Matthew and I have a vision. We’re manifesting a homestead: a beautiful piece of land with a farmhouse, animals, and a connection to nature. It’s a dream that feels so big, but instead of just waiting for it to happen, we’ve decided to start small. That’s where our chickens came in. 🐓

For us, the chickens aren’t just about fresh eggs; they’re about learning and preparing. They remind us that manifestation isn’t just about dreaming—it’s about action. Every time we care for them, we’re building the habits and skills we’ll need for our future homestead. It’s our way of turning the ‘waiting room’ into a ‘classroom.’

But we didn’t stop there. This spring, we’re planning a small kitchen garden. 🌱 It’s nothing extravagant—just a few herbs and veggies—but it’s another step toward something bigger. Every seed we plant is a reminder that dreams need care, patience, and nurturing. This little garden isn’t just about food; it’s practice for the life we’re working toward.

This brings me to today’s affirmation:

I trust the small steps I take today will lead me to my greatest dreams tomorrow. The universe is working in my favor.

Say it with me:

I trust the small steps I take today will lead me to my greatest dreams tomorrow. The universe is working in my favor.

How does that feel? Take a moment to let it sink in. Manifestation isn’t about instant gratification; it’s about trusting the process and celebrating progress, no matter how small.

So, what’s your dream? Maybe it’s starting a new career, building a relationship, or creating something you’ve always wanted. Whatever it is, I challenge you to think about the small steps you can take this week. Write down your goals, research something new, or take a chance on something that feels just a little scary. Remember, every little effort matters.

For Matthew and me, the chickens and the garden are our proof. These tiny projects remind us that our big dream is closer than we think. Every egg collected and every seed planted is a step forward, and we’re so grateful for the journey.

Until next time, keep shining, keep manifesting, and remember: The smallest seeds often grow into the tallest trees. 🌳
