In today’s society we experience everything at lightening speed,
expecting gratification or disappointment immediately. Our lives are
often swallowed up in responsibilities, obligations, and deadlines,
leaving many of us frantic and unsatisfied. In Bianca Guerra’s A
Woman’s Guide to Manifestation, she challenges each of us to reevaluate
the direction of our lives and selves. In a soothing and friendly,
informal style, the author dares the reader to take control of her own
life. If the reader has any doubts, Guerra takes care to erase them,
while seamlessly promoting reliance on inner strength and oneself.
To the author, \"manifestation\" means the creation of something from
nothing; it is the process of turning a dream or goal into reality.
Guerra emphasizes that the goal must be realistic: A woman who wishes
to lose weight cannot snap her fingers and shed three dress sizes
overnight. It takes desire, discipline, and commitment. Losing weight
can be difficult and, to be effective, should be implemented gradually
in steps. These steps are exactly what Guerra provides. The first step
is Desire, one\'s desire to achieve a goal or realize a wish. The next
six steps direct the reader to take responsibility for her actions, to
believe in herself, and to let go of negativity. The final step is
Gratitude, which gives the manifestation finality and acknowledges the
objective is accomplished. This is a logical progression for
successfully reaching goals in life.
Guerra not only provides this instruction manual but supplies
additional strategies for the discovery and clarification of the
reader’s life purpose. She places accountability for success firmly in
the reader’s hands and even admits times in her own life when these
steps did not produce the intended results.
Guerra also addresses common problems that women face, such as the
frequent inability to say “no” to a request, even when saying “yes”
proves detrimental. Guerra acknowledges the difficulties of this
dilemma while reminding the reader only she is in control of her life—
no one else. Guerra does not deny problems in life exist; instead, she
provides the encouragement and support needed to empower oneself to
overcome problems. Her advice is always practical and considerate.
Guerra ends her book with an extensive biography and glossary. She also
includes inspirational quotations from notable women throughout
history, such as Mother Theresa and Indira Gandhi. With these words,
Guerra truly celebrates the spirit and courage of women from yesterday
and today while encouraging the women of tomorrow.
Reading through the pages of A Woman’s Guide to Manifestation is like
visiting a cherished favorite aunt. With warm personal anecdotes,
inspirational advice, and a sense of compassion, the author presents
her steps for achieving the best life one can possibly lead. She
thoughtfully encourages the reader to take responsibility for herself
and her own actions, a characteristic that many would argue is rapidly
disappearing from our society. With Guerra’s stories and guidance, you
too can create your life exactly as you had always hoped.
