From Intention to Creation
Exploring why all artists are manifesting
By Laurén J. Green
“I WILL BE MAGIC. I WILL BRING IT INTO REALITY.”
- Micheal Jackson
“Write it down on real paper with real pencil and watch shit get real” are the famous words of Erykah Badu that made all of us get our journals out. How many of us are writing our affirmations and making our vision boards, praying our dreams span out? Is it delulu or is it real? Well, so many iconic celebrities including Michael Jackson, Jim Carey, Will.I.Am., and Erykah Badu have proved that dreams can become reality when you send your unwavering faith into the universe.
All artists have consciously or unconsciously manifested their life into reality simply because they believed they could do it.
Few know that the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson manifested his legendary culture shifting music at the age of 21. Tired of being the “ABC kid’’ Micheal wrote a manifesto to himself and declared, "I will be magic. I will be better than every great actor rolled into one. I must have the most incredible training system. To dig and dig and dig until I find. I will study and look back on the whole world of entertainment and perfect it. Take it steps further from where the greats left off."
Needless to say, he accomplished all of that and more.

“it's just about letting the universe know what you want & then working toward it while letting go of how it comes to pass.”
— Jim Carrey
Similarly, a young struggling actor Jim Carrey had been in the acting scene with no luck and decided to take charge of his life. Desperate for his big break he wrote himself a check for $10 million for "acting services rendered." He dated it for five years in the future energetically sealing a fate of fortune. He kept the check in his wallet and looked at it every day continuously visualizing himself cashing the check despite not seeing any signs of success.
Five years later, in 1994, Carrey's career took off with the release of "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," followed by a string of blockbuster hits like "The Mask" and "Dumb and Dumber."
His dream of earning $10 million for his acting services became a reality when he secured a role that paid him exactly that amount. Carrey later admitted on The Oprah Show that he believes in the power of visualization and the law of attraction and attributes energy work to be the reason for his massive success.
Look back at a past Oprah Show interview with Jim Carrey where he describes how visualization led to great success.
“I got out of my predicament because I didn’t live in my current reality.”
— Will.I.Am.
In a recent interview Black Eyed Peas superstar and music producer Will.I.Am. revealed in an interview that when working his way to the top he never ‘lived in his current reality.’ In order to get him and his mom out of the projects, he was always living in the realm of his dreams energetically aligning himself to a life of success.
By quieting the chaotic external he became a magnet to his dream life simply by believing the dream was real long before it was materialized.
As creatives in a capitalistic world it’s easy to fall into the trap of lack thinking I don’t have the tools, the equipment, or the money to create the perfect project. While this may be true, many of the greats started with nothing but believed they would have everything.
“If you feel like you’re meant for something more, it’s because you are”
— Laurén J. Green
Your magic is more than your creative gifts, talents, and innovation - it’s your ability to believe in your greatness. The more you invest your faith in yourself, the more the universe will continue to align you with the right tools, downloads, and even divine connections.
Become a magnet to your dreams simply by believing they already exist. Abundance is your natural state, your job is to see through any illusions telling you otherwise.
