How to Use Inspired Action to Manifest Big Dreams (Without Waiting on the Universe)

Ever feel like you’re stuck on pause… waiting for the universe to finally deliver?

I get it. I played the ‘ask, believe, receive’ waiting game for a long time… But here’s the truth: your dream life isn’t waiting on the universe… It’s waiting on you.

Your subconscious mind is a powerhouse, but it’s also practical. It doesn’t respond to wishful thinking; it responds to evidence. That’s why inspired action is the language your subconscious truly understands.

And the key to successful manifestation.

In this post, I’ll show you how inspired action works, why your subconscious needs it to unlock your desires, and how you can start using the law of action… in small, doable ways.

What Is the Law of Inspired Action?

At its core, the law of inspired action means taking steps toward your dreams because you feel a strong inner pull…

A gut feeling that says, do this now.

But this isn’t just about checking off small to-dos. Inspired action often feels like a bold move or even a leap. It carries energy that propels you forward. Sometimes far faster than you expected.

This is why inspired action is one of the most critical (yet most overlooked) parts of the manifestation process.

(…and the core teaching of my bestselling manifestation book ‘Become the CEO of Your Dream Life…)

It’s about doing something that not only brings you closer to your goal, but also sends a powerful signal to your subconscious: This is who I am now. This is where I’m going.

It’s Following the Signs…

You might have heard people say, “Watch for signs from the universe.” Often, those signs show up as an inner urge or intuitive spark.

Maybe you suddenly feel excited to call someone you haven’t spoken to in years.

Or you get a creative idea in the shower that you can’t shake.

Or you wake up one morning with a new clarity about moving to a different city.

It might not always make sense on paper. But it feels deeply right. That’s inspired action, trying to guide you.

You Still Have to Be the One to Move

Here’s the catch: you have to actually take the step.

It’s so easy to second-guess these nudges. To overthink them. To talk yourself out of them because they feel too big or too uncertain.

And that’s why so many people stay stuck…
…waiting for a dream to show up without ever meeting it halfway.

Why I Don’t Believe in “The Universe Will Handle the How”

Look, you’ll hear a lot of coaches say, ‘Just trust the universe.’ I call BS on that. Your subconscious needs instructions, not blind hope.

But after helping countless women to turn their dreams into reality and rebuilding my own life from the ground up, I can tell you:

The HOW absolutely matters when manifesting.

Your subconscious needs instructions, a map, a reason to move. Otherwise, it keeps you exactly where you are.

Inspired Action vs. Regular Action: What’s the Difference?

It’s easy to mistake being busy for making progress.

Most of us fill our days with endless to-dos: answering emails, running errands, cleaning up little messes… only to fall into bed at night wondering why we still feel so far from our big goals.

That’s because most action isn’t inspired action.

What is Inspired Action, Really?

Inspired action is different. It’s:

• Driven by a gut feeling or inner nudge that you can’t quite explain, but feels deeply right.
  
• A step that often feels bold; something that pulls you closer to your desires in a big way.
  
• The spark that kicks off what I call a manifestation avalanche, where opportunities and next steps seem to fall into place effortlessly.

When you take inspired action, it often comes with a rush of energy, a mix of excitement and even nervousness.

You feel like you’re stretching beyond your comfort zone, and that’s exactly why it works. It signals to your subconscious (and to life itself): “I’m serious about this. I’m ready.”

Why Most Action Isn’t Inspired

Think about how often we act from a place of:

• Obligation (“I should do this…”)
• Comparison (“Everyone else is doing it…”)
• Guilt (“I’ll feel bad if I don’t…”)
• Automatic routine (“I’ve always done it this way…”)

This is where so many women get stuck…

…constantly busy, but rarely aligned. And it’s why you can work hard all day and still feel miles away from your dreams.

The Power of Knowing the Difference

Inspired action isn’t always comfortable. In fact, it can feel downright scary because it often asks you to stretch, trust, and step into unknown territory.

But this is exactly what makes it so powerful! It’s the kind of action that transforms your reality, not just fills your time.

The best part? Once you learn how to consciously attract and activate inspired action, you’re in control of your manifestation journey.

Why Inspired Action Is Key for Manifestation

Inspired action is key because your subconscious, the true engine behind manifestation, needs evidence, not just wishes, to create your new reality.

Visualizing, journaling, and vision boards are powerful supports…

But it’s your aligned, courageous steps that prove to your subconscious, “this is who I am now,” and set real change in motion.

That’s the foundation of my action-based manifestation method, so let’s start to turn theory into action right now.

How to Take Inspired Action for Manifestation

Wondering how to actually move from dreaming to doing… and finally see your big manifestations take shape?

This is where inspired action changes everything. And here’s how you can start taking inspired action right now:

Get Clear on What You Truly Desire

Manifestation always starts with clarity. You need to know exactly what you want…

…not what’s expected of you…

…not what you think is “safe,” but what actually lights you up.

This means getting brutally honest about your deepest desires, then setting goals that feel exciting (even if they also feel a little intimidating).

But here’s the key: simply setting goals isn’t enough.

Your subconscious speaks the language of experience, not just ideas. That’s why you need to pair your goals with bold, meaningful steps, the kind that prove to your subconscious mind, “I’m ready for this.”

Reprogram Doubts Through Action

Doubt is normal. In fact, it’s one of the biggest abundance blocks I see with my readers and students.

Your brain’s entire job is to keep you safe, so of course, it gets nervous when you start wanting bigger things.

But here’s the secret: the fastest way to quiet those doubts isn’t to think your way out of them…

It’s to take small, consistent actions that stretch you just beyond your comfort zone.

This is why I often say it’s like “acting as if,” but in a way that’s grounded and strategic. Each step you take tells your subconscious, “This is who I am now. I can handle this.”

And bit by bit, those old limiting beliefs start to fade.

Take Aligned, Intuitive Steps (Even If They Scare You)

Once you’re clear on what you want and you’ve started loosening old doubts, it’s time to move.

But this isn’t about forcing yourself to hustle or taking action from fear.
Inspired action feels different:

• It often starts with a gut nudge or an idea that excites you.
  
• It feels a bit like a stretch, maybe even nerve-wracking, but also strangely right.
  
• It leads to doors opening you never could’ve planned for.

Start by listening to your intuition. Then combine it with practical moves: set small, achievable steps while staying open to surprise opportunities.

And always remember to include at least one big, slightly scary action that tells your subconscious you mean business. That’s often the catalyst that kicks off what I call a “manifestation avalanche.”

Don’t Wait — Consciously Attract Inspired Action

A lot of people think inspired action is something you just sit around and wait for. But you can actually call it in on purpose.

In my book and inside the Pro Manifestation Program, I teach a practical process to map out your goals, break them into action steps, and “approve” them with what I call your personal management team…

A technique inspired by Walt Disney’s creative strategy.

It’s how I’ve manifested my biggest dreams, from my soulmate relationship to running a business I love. And it’s helped thousands of women create lives and businesses beyond what they ever thought possible.
