Picture this: you are sitting with a freshly brewed cup of coffee, journal open, pen in hand.
You are not just writing goals…
You are sketching the blueprint of your future self.
This guide will show you how to reverse engineer your action plan, so you can align with your future self vision, using NLP techniques, identity alignment, and subconscious reprogramming.
You can use this anytime, but when you combine these tools with the energy of the New Moon, you create a plan that feels alive, purposeful, and achievable.
Why Align Your Action Plan with the New Moon
The New Moon is a powerful time for intention setting.
It represents beginnings, fresh energy, and clarity.
Imagine looking back at the next New Moon and saying, “I actually did it.”
That is the power of aligning your goals with the moon cycle.
This process is perfect for:
- New Moon rituals
- Coaches, creators, and conscious women
- Mindset shifts, embodiment practices, and manifestation rituals
Step 1: Set a Crystal-Clear Goal
In my NLP, we set goals using the submodalities of the mind.
This means you do not just write down what you want.
You see it, hear it, and feel it as if it already exists.
That clarity gives your subconscious the strongest signal possible.
Step 2: Understand the Law of Action
The Law of Attraction is powerful, but most of the time the universe asks us to meet it halfway.
Action is the bridge.
It does not mean forcing or grinding.
It means moving in ways that feel aligned, joyful, and natural.
When you take inspired action, opportunities find you.
Step 3: Create Your Action Plan
Once your goal is clear, map out your milestones. An action plan helps you:
- Attract unexpected opportunities
- Call in supportive people
- Co-create with the universe from love and generosity
Step 4: Reverse Engineer Your Goal
The New Moon is the perfect time to reverse engineer your plan.
- Imagine it is the next New Moon.
- Say to yourself: “It is now [date]. I have achieved [your goal].”
- Visualize the evidence:
- Money goal: a specific amount in your bank account
- Relationship goal: a fifth date with your dream person
- Health goal: seeing a strong, healthy body in the mirror
Then ask:
What is the very last thing I will be doing when this goal is achieved?
Step 5: Map Your Milestones
Work backward from your goal date.
- Waning Moon week: what actions will you take?
- Full Moon week: what progress will you celebrate?
- Waxing Moon week: what seeds will you plant?
- Current New Moon: what is your first step today?
Set reminders in your phone or calendar.
If you want accountability, work with a coach who will keep you on track.
Step 6: Get Specific
As you move closer to the present, break it down further.
- What will you do 15 days from now?
- 14 days? 13 days? … all the way to today.
It does not have to be perfect.
You will adjust as you go.
Step 7: Daily Alignment
Ask yourself daily:
- What would I be doing two days from now?
- One day from now?
- What can I do right now to move forward?
Examples of aligned action:
- Reprioritizing your time
- Setting boundaries
- Saying no to distractions like scrolling or TV
Step 8: Trust the Process
Even if you do not hit the exact outcome, you will become:
- Stronger
- More confident
- A better communicator
- More capable in every area of life
It is not just about the destination.
It is about who you become along the way.
Step 9: Journal Your Action Plan
Grab a journal and write it down, now!
Journaling transforms invisible thoughts into tangible blueprints.
Just like a building starts with a sketch, your dream life starts with a plan.
Step 10: Build Your Blueprint for Greatness
Find accountability partners who:
- Believe in you
- See your vision
- Stay consistent
- Never question your dreams with doubt
Choose someone who can see the invisible.
Your potential is not limited by what others believe.
