There’s a well-known formula shared by Bashar (a channeled entity) that many people have found life-changing.

It’s simple, but incredibly powerful when truly embodied.

Here it is:

1. Act on your highest excitement.
At every moment, choose the option that contains the highest level of excitement, interest or passion to the best of your ability.
2. Take it as far as you can until it no longer excites you.
Follow that excitement with no expectation of outcome. When it fades, re-evaluate what the next most exciting option is.
3. Act on it with zero insistence on how it should look.
Don't try to control or manipulate the outcome. Let your higher mind orchestrate the path through synchronicity.
4. Stay in a positive state no matter what manifests.
Even if what shows up isn't what you expected, trust that it’s part of the process and stay aligned with excitement. Everything is happening for you.
5. Repeat.
Use this formula again and again moment to moment. This builds momentum and creates a life that reflects your true vibrational signature.

Let’s break this down in simple terms

1. Act on your highest excitement

This is all about following what lights you up. It doesn’t have to be huge, life-changing actions, it can be as small as sipping a cup of your favourite tea, going for a walk, or calling a friend. The key is to keep choosing the thing that feels the most alive and inspiring to you in that moment. Excitement is your soul’s GPS, nudging you in the direction of your most authentic path.

2. Take it as far as you can until it no longer excites you

Ride that wave of excitement as long as it feels good. Once the spark fades, don’t force it. Let it go without guilt or pressure. Then check in: What feels most exciting to me now? This is how you keep moving in flow rather than pushing yourself into burnout or obligation.

3. Act on it with zero insistence on how it should look

We often get caught up in controlling how things “should” unfold. But when you try to micro-manage every detail, you cut off the magic. Instead, trust that your higher self (or universe, source, spirit — whatever you resonate with) has a bigger, more beautiful plan than you could imagine. Follow the excitement, release the grip on outcomes, and let synchronicities guide the way.

4. Stay in a positive state no matter what manifests

Life won’t always go exactly how you think it should, and that’s okay. Even when things seem to go sideways, keep your vibration high. Choose to see everything as happening for you, not to you. Challenges are part of the journey; they’re often redirecting you to something even better.

5. Repeat

This is a lifelong practice. Moment to moment, day to day, you keep coming back to excitement as your guiding light. The more you do this, the more your outer reality starts to reflect your inner alignment. You’ll find yourself living a life that truly feels like you.

Final thoughts

At its core, Bashar’s formula is about trusting your natural joy and curiosity. You don’t need to have the entire plan laid out. You just need to follow the next breadcrumb of excitement, step by step.

When you live this way, life becomes less about “shoulds” and more about soul. It becomes a dance of surrender, trust, and true alignment.

So — what feels most exciting to you right now? And, are you doing it?
