Everyone sees things differently. For instance, a homeless man may see the world as unfair and cruel. A rich man may see the world as beautiful and full of pleasure and opportunities. We all see life differently because of our perceptions. What causes us to see the world the way we do? From past experiences.
Perception is Everything
If you want to get the most out of life and the universe, you must understand that the way you perceive it is what it will give to you. If you are full of fear and anger, for instance, you are only going to attract negative situations that bring about fear and anger.
When we are afraid of things that come true, is it merely a coincidence? Or did we subconsciously manifest it in our minds because we kept dwelling on it and worrying about it? It’s important to be able to let things go, otherwise you will forever hang on to the past.
Live in the Moment
In order to manifest your dreams, you must be able to live in the present. It’s interesting if you think about it. There really is no past or future. There is only the present. The past and future are only illusions. Your physical body is always here in the now right? Your thoughts are in the past and future, which is an illusion because your physical body always remains in the present.
I put so much emphasis on living in the moment because the moment is where we are strongest. When we regret the past and worry about the future, it causes depression, anxiety, fear, anger, and a bundle of other negative emotions.
Anything Worth It is Hard Work
We must also accept that the things we want don’t just fall in our lap. Sometimes they do out of mere luck and coincidence, but anything worth it in life is hard work. Things in life take time and we need to be patient with ourselves to accomplish our life’s mission and purpose. We must take the time to find ourselves, as painful a journey as it might be.
Keep your mind open about how you want your life to turn out. It is good to have goals to make it happen, but if you limit the ways it can appear for you, it will be harder for you to manifest the life you desire.

Great post!
The world is always interpreted through the eyes of the viewer. What one might call the reality, the other will refer to as bogus.
I also agree that the present is the only time you can truly live in. The past is gone and cannot be changed, whilst the future cannot be predicted (though it can be influenced to some degree).

The law of attraction is a powerful one. Most people neglect their thoughts unaware that what we think of the most is what we attract into our lives.
Being mindful is the key to happiness I always say.
Where does planning for the future, which crucial, fall into play here though?

We should be planning the future every day. When we plan for tomorrow, we plan every day. It's important to notice the difference, however, between planning and worrying.

That's a good point, knowing the difference between planning and worrying. I don't think too many people are aware of this difference. Good response.
