Manifesting with Vernon Davis

Vernon Davis is a man of many talents, who wears many hats. He is one of those individuals you look at and ask how he does it all. He will immediately tell you that he manifests it because he wants it, he sees it in his mind, puts it down on paper like a vision board, and goes for it. 

“ Since I was a kid, I was always into a lot of different things.”

Ever since Vernon can remember, he has always wanted to live a life to inspire others. For him, his actions and goals in life always consider how others will be inspired by them. Though he doesn’t look for validation or permission to do what he wants, he does consider what message and how it will impact those around him. Vernon said, “ I feel like my story and legacy are all just to inspire others.” This is matched with a hard work ethic and dedication to seeing things through till the end. He said he doesn’t think about things twice, he just does it. This is the mentality of a champion, someone who goes for it because they know it’s meant for them.

“ I knew I was going to be drafted.”

Vernon said, “ It was something I’m going to do,” when I asked him if he always wanted to play football professionally. Words have power and meaning, and for Vernon, want has always been replaced with an action verb because he knew he was going to do it and accomplish it. This is what sets him apart from everyone else. “ We need to change our words,” said Davis. Even in high school while playing football, he saw himself as a college football player playing against high school kids. Though he is at the moment doing a job, he is also manifesting his future by envisioning it. It’s almost as if Vernon is both in the present and the future. 

“It’s about watching how you are doing certain things.”

One thing for sure is Vernon is all about his brand. For him, his brand has three values: Honesty, Consistency, and Integrity. For example, he is producing music and there are certain topics he won’t rap about because they are things he doesn’t participate in or glorify in his everyday life. “I’m going to tell a story about my life and the things I’ve been through,” said Davis. He takes his brand message seriously, since everything is meant to inspire and empower others to be their best selves. You can view his brand as athletic, fashion, and entertainment, but above all he wants you to understand it’s aspirational. He wants his brand to exemplify that you can do it too. And by this, he means you can become whatever you are meant to be and want to be.

“People never put their full trust into something; they always have something else in mind.”

Veron Vernon looks at manifesting as a daily ritual. “Manifestation takes a lot of work, so you have to create vision boards, and you have to think about it daily,” said Davis. Whatever he is manifesting it becomes such a daily thought that becomes innate to him. You can’t just envision it, you have to do it as if you already made it. There is no fake it till you make it with Vernon, you are doing it because you already made it. 

“()I call it planting seeds for the many  things I have going on.”

Beyond the visualization and manifesting, he is planting seeds for all the various things he strives to accomplish. Vernon said, “ You have to make sure to go after multiple things because they are going to happen at different times in your life.” People look to see instant success because you see him on the big screen in multiple projects and networks, but these are all coming because several years ago he started planting seeds by telling the right people who he wanted to  star in movies with, what type of projects he wanted to do, and what shows he saw himself on. “ I’m constantly meeting with people and planting seeds,” said Davis. 

His words of encouragement for readers
Don’t give up and throw in the towel, keep pressing forward. When things aren’t going your way, that is just a little setback that is trying to attack you. The line between success and failure is so thin,  you have to remember that every year you are going somewhere. There’s always that moment when things aren’t going your way, and you become distraught. You start to feel like throwing in the towel, don’t do it! Just keep pressing forward because it’s going to get better, and it will be okay. Everyone has the same moments you are having, and they felt just like you, so don’t think you are alone.
