Think and get. Visualize and succeed. Dream and deliver. These and many others are the mantras that are crux of many podcasts with successful people. Many young people love this concept of having their thoughts come true. Others dismiss it as some motivational crap. The word “manifestation” may be new but it has existed in some form or the other for a long time.

The holy books mention the mystical qualities of the prophets to have dreams that were describing their ability to see what others cannot see.

History books talk about the power of a vision driving nations towards a common goal. “I have a dream”, the famous speech by Dr Martin Luther King that changed the America forever.

The 1940 presentation of “Tasawar-e-Pakistan” by Quaid-e-Azam during the historical Qarardad-e-Pakistan speech at Minto Pak (Minar-e-Pakistan) resulted in the formation of Pakistan. Fiction is full of the “think-feel-get” cycle. In all these the common thread is the mysterious magical transition from dream to destiny.

Manifestation, in its more basic form, means to turn something from an idea into a reality. When we talk about manifesting, we are referring to using thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and actions to realize an idea into reality. However, the notion that all you have to do is to think and dream and it will happen is not true.

Manifestation has some indirect science behind it. Many people talk about visualization as a precursor for action. That is correct. Brain is a repetition machine. A constant image of something you want to do does trigger associated actions.........
