Staring at a blank box is normal. Here are 20 manifest examples by theme to get you started. Do not copy them word for word: adapt each one to your life, because the more specific the sentence, the easier it is to act on. For writing rules, see how to write a manifest.

Study

  1. By August I get into my first-choice university.
  2. I score 7.0 on IELTS by next June.
  3. I hand in my thesis on time without an all-nighter.
  4. I pass Calculus this semester.

Work

  1. I land a first job I actually like.
  2. I send 10 applications and attend 3 interviews this month.
  3. I launch my side project by the end of the quarter.
  4. I ask my manager about the team lead path before next month.

Money

  1. By December I have saved $2,000.
  2. I pay off my credit card before the holidays.
  3. I save enough for a deposit on a small apartment.

Health

  1. I go to bed before midnight every day for a month.
  2. I run my first 5 km without stopping.
  3. I book a general check-up and follow the advice.

Relationships

  1. I take my family on a trip.

  3. I call my mother every weekend.

Yourself

  1. I compare myself less with others.
  2. I forgive myself and move on.
  3. I read 12 books this year.

How to make an example yours

  1. Swap in your numbers. $2,000 or $200, 5 km or 1 km: choose a stretch you believe in.
  2. Add a date. "This month", "before the holidays", "by the end of the quarter".
  3. Cut words. On Dear Universe a manifest is limited to 140 characters.
  4. Pick one. One sentence you truly want beats twenty that are "fine".

Next step

Choose one, adjust it and send it to Dear Universe with a date. You can also wander the Universe Feed to see what other people have written. If you want to understand why dates help, read set goals with a deadline.
