I’m taking us back to where my entrepreneurial journey all began: COLOUR.
(If you didn’t know, my business started in 2008 with Colour Analysis training, and it’s been a powerful foundation ever since.)
In this post, I’m diving into the fascinating world of colour—exploring both the science and manifestation principles behind colour psychology.
Did you know the right colours can not only enhance your appearance and how others perceive you, but they can also help you attract clients, stay focused, and propel your success?
Colour is so much more than just a visual element—it’s a potent manifestation tool. It can align your energy, shift your mood, and inspire action.
By intentionally choosing colours that align with our goals, we can tap into their energy to boost productivity, draw in clients, and elevate business success.
Keep reading for ten powerful ways to use colour to support your goals, blending practical strategies with the science and manifestation insights behind each colour's impact.
1. Manifest Confidence and Energy with Red
Red is a high-energy colour associated with power, confidence, and boldness. Red increases physical energy and mental alertness, which can boost the confidence needed to take action toward business goals.
How to use red to manifest your business goals: Wear red when preparing for important meetings or client calls to manifest confidence. Include red accents in your workspace to set an intention for strong decision-making and quick, energetic action in your work.
2. Channel Focus and Clarity with Blue
Blue promotes calmness, focus, and trust—qualities essential for staying clear and grounded in your vision. Studies show that blue environments improve concentration, while in the realm of manifestation, blue is thought to open communication channels and support creative, productive thinking.
How to use blue to manifest your business goals: Use blue when creating long-term plans or working through complex projects. Try a blue notebook for brainstorming ideas, or wear blue when networking to attract trustworthy, long-term business relationships.
3. Use Yellow to Inspire Optimism and Creativity
Yellow is a colour of positivity and joy, often linked to creativity and mental clarity. It’s believed that yellow can lift your energy, helping you stay upbeat when facing challenges. This burst of light energy is great for setting manifestations in motion by elevating your mood.
How to use yellow to manifest your business goals: Incorporate yellow when brainstorming or envisioning future success. Use a yellow desk accessory or wardrobe piece to bring light and optimism to your day, helping you manifest creativity and a positive mindset.
4. Green for Financial Growth and Balance
Green symbolises abundance, balance, and growth. It’s widely associated with wealth and prosperity, and it can attract opportunities for financial growth while also keeping you grounded and balanced as you manifest success in your business.
How to use green to manifest your business goals: Add green plants to your workspace to represent continuous growth and abundance. Wear green accessories when setting financial intentions or working on tasks related to prosperity to reinforce a steady and abundant mindset.
5. Purple to Elevate Your Ambition and Attract High-Value Clients
Purple is associated with luxury, ambition, and wisdom. It symbolises high aspirations and attracts high-energy success. Manifestation with purple can help align you with clients who value your expertise and are willing to invest in your services.
How to use purple to manifest your business goals: Use a purple notebook (or post-its) when setting goals for growth in your business, or wear purple for presentations to inspire confidence and attract high-calibre clients who respect and value your skills.
6. Spark Enthusiasm and Motivation with Orange
Orange combines the energy of red with the optimism of yellow, creating a colour that’s enthusiastic and motivating. Orange is ideal for manifesting a strong drive and motivation, pushing you forward in your business with energy and joy.
How to use orange to manifest your business goals: Use orange when setting daily intentions to infuse enthusiasm into your workflow. Try wearing orange or incorporating orange accents in your workspace to keep motivation high, especially when tackling a big goal.
7. Project Authority and Professionalism with Black
Black is a colour of power, sophistication, and professionalism. Black is grounding, which can help you manifest confidence and authority in your field, attracting clients who see you as a leader and expert.
How to use black to manifest your business goals: Incorporate black when you want to feel strong and authoritative. Whether it’s a sleek black outfit (or part of your outfit if it doesn’t suit you) for client meetings or a black journal for important business notes. Black reinforces your role as a professional and builds trust with potential clients.
8. Pink for Compassionate, Heart-Cantered Business Growth
Pink is a colour of love, compassion, and warmth. For personal stylists, coaches, and those in service-based businesses, pink can help you manifest connections with clients who value warmth and positive energy in your services.
How to use pink to manifest your business goals: Wear pink or add pink accents when making videos for social media etc to attract clients who value a caring, client-cantered approach. Pink can help open your heart and mind, making it easier to manifest meaningful connections.
9. White for Fresh Starts and Clarity in Vision
White symbolises purity, clarity, and fresh beginnings. If you’re looking to manifest clarity and new opportunities in your business, white can help keep your vision clear, free of distractions and stress.
How to use white to manifest your business goals: Use white for visual reminders of your goals—perhaps a white vision board or a clean, white desk setup.
10. Gold for Prosperity and High-Level Success
Gold symbolises wealth, prosperity, and achievement. Manifesting with gold can help you focus on your high-value goals, attracting not only financial success but also a sense of accomplishment and recognition for your hard work.
How to use gold to manifest your business goals: Use gold accents or jewellery when setting financial intentions or visualising success in your business. Gold is a powerful reminder to think big, helping you stay focused on high-level goals that bring prosperity. I even painted a wall in my office gold!!
The Science and Manifestation Behind Colour and Goal Achievement
Colour impacts us both scientifically and energetically. Research shows that different colours can influence our emotions, productivity, and even physical responses. In the world of manifestation, colours are used as tools to align personal energy with specific goals:
Energy Elevation: Colours like yellow and orange release serotonin, increasing positivity and motivation.
Increased Confidence: Colours like red and black can boost heart rate and feelings of power, preparing you for goal-oriented action.
Stress Relief: Cool colours like blue and green reduce stress, helping you maintain focus and calmness.
These effects, combined with manifestation practices, make colour a fun and invaluable tool for attracting your goals. When you choose colours that align with the intentions you want to manifest, you’re creating an environment that supports those outcomes, keeping you inspired and on track.
Practical Ways to Manifest with Colour in Your Business
Intentional Wardrobe Choices: Choose colours that represent your intentions for the day, whether it’s confidence, creativity, or balance. Use the colour tips above to know which colour/s to pick.
Workspace Design: Incorporate goal-aligned colours into your workspace to keep your intentions front and centre.
Colour-Coded Vision Boards: Next time you create a vision board use colours that represent each goal (new blog post on this specifically coming soon! You know I love a vision board ;-)).
Journals and Visual Reminders: Choose journals, notebooks and post-its in your focus colours to keep you motivated.
Use Coloured Ink: Next time you’re ‘Writing As If’ in your journal, pick a colour that’s aligned with the goal/manifestation you’re writing about.
Not only do I believe everyone should have “their colours done” to discover what suits them best, but it's also clear that colour goes far beyond mere appearance—it's a powerful (and hugely overlooked) tool that can influence our energy and help us manifest our goals.
Colour can be an intentional and practical way to stay aligned with your business goals, helping you manifest success, attract ideal clients, and keep focused on what truly matters.
