Making Baby: Prayers and Manifesting 

I have always had a fascination about the Law of Attraction, but I really saw the benefits of working with it about 7 years ago. My husband and I were told by four different doctors that we were infertile. After 7 years of marriage without pregnancies, it was devastating news to us. We are young actors and part of a wonderful community of fellow artists. The word got out about our plight and those dear people helped to raise $3000 for our fertility treatments. A wonderful gift. 

It was a start, but the exams and treatments would cost much more, so I started looking for other methods that would help us. The Dalai Lama was coming to our city, so I traveled to the park where His Holiness held a meditation. I was right there in front of him for 4 hours meditating. I felt it was an important opportunity. Shortly after, we got a very big break. I got a call from the generous Dr. Mark Perloe who agreed to donate our treatment (ICSI-very advanced form of In Vitro Fertilization, IVF)

Things were going our way and I felt encouraged to do more. I got the idea to imagine I was now pregnant and I thanked God in advance for this wonderful miracle every night. In my mind the wonderful baby was on the way. I was also kissing my Mayan fertility talisman a friend had given me (I know it sounds crazy but I was willing to try anything). 

I listened to Marianne Williamson’s course on everyday miracles. It spoke to me, so I began forgiving all the people in my life that I felt a grudge against. Then I listened to Dr. Wayne Dyer’s Change Your Thoughts and Change Your Life.

I was surrounding myself with positive thoughts daily, patiently waiting our IVF treatment “turn”. A day  before going in to the clinic for the routine fertility injections, I had this gut feeling to take a pregnancy test.

 I went to a Dollar Tree store of all places, the store where most of the items are a dollar or less. I purchased the simple pregnancy test kit and guess what happened? The results were positive! I was SHOCKED to see the plus sign. 

I couldn’t believe it, so I called our doctor to confirm it for us. I went to his office and we put his very high tech equipment to work. As he had his machine working it’s magic, he said, “Well that’s odd, there is baby A and there is baby B.”  What?? We are now the parents of Identical twin boys, supernaturally conceived against all odds. We almost lost them at 24 weeks but I credit another manifestation that kept them safely inside me for 35 1/2 weeks. They are now 6 years old, happy and healthy! Say hi to our boys.               Ask for it. Think of it being done. Express your gratefulness and give thanks in advance. This couple was committed to having a child. They had been told that a previous accident had lessened their chances of naturally conceiving a child down to the range of 2%. She took action and began to ask and manifest the perfect outcome in a variety of ways. First, she put out a very large intention – 4 hours of meditation that day in the park. This is a strong intention and it helped to make a path for the baby to appear. Then she began a prayer regimen of thanking God in advance for this child – prayer and more intention (so smart!). Note that she imagined her future with the baby on the way and she used forgiveness to clear this path even more. The fertility doll and whatever else she used symbolically are more layers of intention directed to her singular goal. As I noted in Manifesting 123, I was shown how our thoughts literally take form. Over many years, I was able to send a number of simple and completed objects in thought to a very gifted individual 2100 miles away, Judy Goodman. Judy could immediately see that my thoughts were quickly creating what first looked like a smoke or vapor into discernible shapes visible in the spirit realm. She could clearly see and describe them to me. Whatever I thought to send her was successfully received every time. The more I thought about an individual object, the more ‘solid’ it became. My thoughts would take form and if I stayed with that intention every day, it would eventually become more ‘solid’ and finally manifest into the physical world! This information is fundamental to how virtually everything in our lives is created. Unless it occurred naturally, everything in your house and community was first a thought – a wisp of smoke. This changes everything. You have already been doing this all your life – you are ready expert. With this knowledge you can continue your life’s path or create the life you desire. In this story a lot of obstacles were overcome. Despite their lack of money for the In Vitro procedures, considerable money appeared to start the process. Later a Doctor donated the necessary treatments. Note that money appeared and the equivalent of money.  The couples 2% chance became twins! This is a miraculous story and those boys are so adorable! We all have the power to make more miracles. It is your Birthright, just like breathing. Pregnant with some good ideas?

OMG This Works! Miraculously Out of Foreclosure in 48 Hours

I was in a real jam. I have a carpet and upholstery business and seemingly overnight I had no business. The entire company revolves around me. I take the calls, set the schedule and then I’m the guy that drives the van and goes out to do the job. When business is going better I can afford someone to help with the phone calls and scheduling, a big load off my back. Here’s how bad it was. My house is about to go into foreclosure. I’m $30,000 behind. There’s also the credit card debt, not a small sum. I’m on the phone hustling for business and very little is happening. I’m getting a few small jobs but I can’t figure out how I’m possibly going to catch up and not lose my home. It was January of 2013 and I called one of my reliable customers, Ken Elliott. Every now and then he has me do some carpet touch up in his home. He agreed to have me over in a couple of days. I drove over, got the work at Ken’s finished and we talked a bit. He asked me how things were going.I didn’t let on about how bad things were. I let him know I could always use more business so he talked to me a little bit about Manifesting 123. At this point, he had not written the book yet but he clearly had mapped it out. He said it was free to try this manifesting thing, so why not? I certainly had a lot to lose if I couldn’t get some big money fast. What he explained to me was clear and simple. I started manifesting that very night. I visualized my future were business was good and I was still living in my home. I was so hopeful that this could happen. Even if it was just a fantasy, it felt good to imagine a time in the future where I didn’t have these problems. ONE DAY LATER, here is what happened. I got a call from someone that wanted her carpets and some upholstery done right away. Her home was in one of the better Denver neighborhoods and I was happy to set the appointment. When I arrived at her address, I quickly realized she was in one of the very best parts of that neighborhood. It was an enormous home and I was happy to be there. She told me what she wanted done and I began to make the list. Her home was filled with wall-to-wall carpeting. This was just magical. It was going to be a pretty nice job. Then something else happened. She started making what I would call the “oh by the way” list. “Oh by the way can you do that runner and those couches and chairs?” I thought, of course and I added it to the list. “Oh yes and I’ve got an area rug under the dining room table. Well actually, just do all of the area rugs everywhere in the house and put them on the list.” After walking the entire house, essentially everything that was carpet and and major upholstery was put on the list. The total job came to $15,000! I was completely stunned but I jumped right in. Everything went beautifully, she was very happy, and I was immediately paid. On the way back home I was thinking about that home foreclosure. I had some cash now. The next day I called my bank and talked about my eminent foreclosure. Everything changed in a magical way again. Instead of having a phone call where I was deep in the hole over $30,000, the conversation shifted into a negotiation. The banker was talking about a loan modification. Instead of having to come up with tens of thousands of dollars, they would rewrite the loan using a monthly payment I could better afford. There would be a price to pay though, $9000. Unbelievable! I Took the deal before somebody changed their mind. Our home was saved and I had money to pay off the credit card debt as well. My 11-year-old daughter was happy too. I did something nice for her and let her know that that daddy wasn’t in such a bad place and worrying. Happy day. I called Ken the day after I saw him and left a short message on his answering machine. I thanked him and told him I got a very nice job just one day after we talked. Ever since then, business has been good. I was over Ken’s house last week doing a bit more work and as we always do afterwards, we took a little time to talk. He remembered my phone message from almost 2 years ago. Turns out he had saved that phone message all this time. I insisted on buying the manifesting 123 book, it certainly had paid off for me. Then I told him this full story. When was over, we started laughing like crazy and high-fived. What a happy moment for both of us. It’s been a remarkable ride. I’m still manifesting every day, going into my future and making good things happen. My life is so much better now. Spencer   What an amazing turn-around in one day! How interesting that I would save Spencer’s phone message for year and 10 months. There are no other saved messages on my phone. I had to go out of my way to erase all the others and keep his on my phone. But I saved it for couple of reasons. His short message was an early affirmation that Manifesting 123 works. Also, each time I heard his message, it was a prompt to get serious and write the book! On the website there are over 100 wonderful stories to read. The stories come in all flavors, and with big and small results. Some of the real shockers are the ones that happen really fast, like 24 hours fast. I’m not out there promoting

Life Was So Hard and Now I Am Shining!

Things were pretty tough. There were the mornings crying in the shower. It was such a desperate time. I can still remember being in my car and praying for opportunities to present themselves. I was also praying for courage and strength. Amazingly, I felt angels in the backseat that day and I somehow knew one had short and the other had long hair. I was recently divorced with no money. I was worse than penniless because of the major debt my ex-husband ran up.  To top things off, he embezzled a large amount of money from my family’s business. What a disaster. Everything was lost. I tried a number of small jobs but they couldn’t keep me afloat. I began doing catering, carrying my pots and pans around in my car, trying to make ends meet. A girlfriend took me in just in time and I finally had a safe place to sleep. She was my angel on the ground. Shortly after, I came across Manifesting 123. It made perfect sense to me and I put it right to work. Each day I prayed for help and additionally I imagined a Movie of my future where all was good. I was much encouraged by Ken’s description of how thought actually builds. I knew Ken Elliott and Judy Goodman from the book. We had talked about how Judy can see our thoughts forming in the spirit world around us.  They made it clear that building your thoughts was easy to do and that I would get a result. It was a lifeline to know I can take charge of my future, actually building my heart’s desire. The book uses the device of a personal “Movie” to envision the future of my choosing. So in my Movie, I was back in Massachusetts with a leadership position in a prominent real estate office. It’s a job I had before and I really loved it. I have family and grandkids in the state. It’s the perfect place for me. I put out feelers in the real estate business where my family lives, looking for that leadership position in a big office. What a break! I got a call from my old boss. He he just let their last team leader go and I was offered the job! It wasn’t going to be a cakewalk but the timing was miraculous. The office was in disarray with a negative culture. It wasn’t an encouraging place to work and the poor sales reflected the mood there. I worked really hard and in 1 1/2 years, the real estate firm turned around with more agents, representatives, and sales. Our success allowed us a much better office space in a new building, a very happy outcome. Our group is thriving, happier and everyone is making more money. My job and personal life is delightful and fulfilling. I’m traveling and training agents, a joy for me. It is how I can help people to live better lives. Everything is just perfect now: My job, my boss, and being with my family and grandchildren. It just gets better. I found the man of my dreams. We’ve known each other since high school and kept in light touch over the years. He was widowed some years ago and now the timing is perfect for us. We are so much in love and we will spend the rest of our lives together. Money is no longer a problem for me. I’m happy, successful and secure in my life. I’m so glad that I felt compelled to ask, to pray when everything was falling down around me. I’m also amazed that when I employed the techniques in Manifesting 123, everything that I specified in my future seemingly fell out of the sky. It was as if I had a magic wand! Now that I’m living comfortably, I can spend more time helping others. I want to do more. I clearly understand that I am standing on the shoulders of all who helped me in the past. This book talks a lot about gratefulness when envisioning your future and I certainly do that. I’ve been journaling for a long time now and each day I make a list of things I’m grateful for. Even in the worst of days there was something good to affirm. Thank you, God for my answered prayers and for this gift, the ability to create a better life for myself. M.A.   From Trouble to Triumph What happened to M. was a great tragedy. She is smart and capable but events took away all that she had worked so hard to build and maintain. When the dust had settled, she had nothing to show for her kindnesses and hard work. The large debt incurred by her ex-husband left her with less than zero. There are a lot of stories here in the newsletter archives about people praying for help. For whatever the reason, they simply asked. These requests take many forms: petitions, seeking, requesting, begging and more. In all these cases, it is a prayer simply asking for aid. M’s situation took her low, but her prayers were answered and a friend provided shelter just in time. It could have happened anyway, but there was the indelible sense of angels in the backseat that day. Did more help arrive in the form of the Manifesting 123 book? Perhaps. It certainly gave her the confidence to specify what she wanted in her life next and where it should happen. She learned how to use her birthright and build her desires. She had a long list of requirements, more than money could buy. M. did her part, working the phones, getting the job and living frugally to pay off the debts. She is comfortable, fulfilled and loved. Ask. There is no need to wait for a crisis. Ask and be grateful everyday. You are empowered to create a happy and comfortable life for yourself. You are Worthy and help is always close by.

Success and Fulfillment Just as She Planned

image: Meg Leonard “Lifting the Veil” oil 16 x 20 inches Meg writes: There have been two instances when I applied a Manifesting 123 method of the Movie in my future. The first Movie evolved as I struggled with my “higher purpose” and linking it to an art-driven life. I had traveled to Egypt in 2009, a trip that affected me to my core. There I saw the most dire poverty as well as the most incredible creativity in craft and architecture. The trip clarified for me that the human spirit is compelled to create objects of beauty despite hardship and despair, and that the “Divine” moves through humanity carrying us forward in hope, inspiring civilizations that follow.

As my life has been very blessed by recognition of my talent and encouragement to pursue art, I wished to share with others the importance of aesthetic endeavors as having great social, spiritual, and consequent economic value. How could I do this? In my movie, I stand on a balcony looking out across a foreign landscape. I am at peace. I have come for others as a teacher or a liaison. I may be there as a leader or part of a well funded international organization. Without details, I simply was open and saw myself as sharing, giving support to artists who needed assistance, and especially encouraging children. A few days passed. I awoke on my birthday with the crystal clear idea of how to begin.
 
Eureka! Right in my own backyard is the renowned Santa Fe International Folk Art Market. Serendipitously, in my email inbox for the first time, was a Call for Volunteers. I promptly read every link about the IFM and replied. I was accepted and needless to say, the volunteer experience as an airport greeter and artist assistant were enriching beyond my wild imaginings. I met many men and women away from their villages for the first time, bringing extraordinary handmade objects to sell so that they could provide food and water to their children. Their expenses were covered and they returned home with 90% of the proceeds. This is the venue I will continue to support and it is the way that feels in alignment with my heart.  IFM website Movie #2. My paintings are recognized for taking the viewer beyond the landscape into the sublime, touching memories and hearts. I am offered commissions and I am confident and grateful for the compensation of my art at prices appropriate to their value. I have left my stressful medical career and my artwork is comfortably supporting my life. A month or so later, a dramatic psychic shift happened. I decided to think of the possibilities in the positive light instead of the fear and depression which plagued me. Accessing retirement funds, I resigned from that stressful job and allowed myself precious time to prepare for my upcoming show. Then, a very influential art reviewer made plans to fly in to see my upcoming show. My former employer also flew in for the show, demonstrating lovely and unprecedented support in my decision. Later, I freely permitted my art to be used as the cover for a recently published book. It resulted in a private party making the substantial purchase of a large painting at my asking price. So, thank you, Ken, for continuing to remind your readers that our thoughts are shaping our reality. Admittedly, old ways of thinking, such as scarcity and fear still need to be beaten back, but the mysterious power of manifesting is evident all around us. Warmly, Meg What a perfect outcome!
  After seeing a large number of ‘wish lists,’ they often consist of a few, simple themes: Health, living comfortably and doing my soul’s purpose. Meg is healthy, thank goodness and following those wonderful themes, she envisioned a future where she feels fulfilled serving others and is also a successful, full-time artist.

She went further by leaving her stressful job, taking money from savings and diving immediately into her painting career. That seems like bravery to many of us, but Meg was actually magnifying her intentions.

I call it Planting a Flag. She was manifesting a future where all of these good things have already happened, a good start. Then she put some skin in the game, so to speak. Meg saw that she was positioned to begin her full-time career immediately and already had an important exhibit lined up. At this point, fear holds a lot of people back, but Meg made a move. You could say that her future scenario had already arrived, she only had to step up and embrace it. She found immediate success, just as she had planned and worked to manifest it. Meg left the old ways of thinking behind and stepped into her future.

Big Office Problems and the Perfect Solution

I’m a criminal defense attorney with a practice in a large city. I’ve been an attorney for decades now, well-established in a high-rise with a great view of the city. All was going very well, so imagine my surprise when I found that my personal secretary of many years had been embezzling money from the law office. What had to be done was done and immediately, I needed to find a new secretary. A replacement was hired, a bright woman who did a very good job. Then unbelievably, I caught her forging checks from the office accounts. It was a complete shock. Again, this criminal action had to be reported and I needed that really good office assistant. I hired a young man with very good computer skills, a real ace and an asset to the office. It was like a curse, within weeks I found out he had altered one of the office checks and deposited it into his personal account. Another secretary was hired but there was a catch. In a very short time, she became surly and would not follow through on the typical duties required for the job. I couldn’t believe this was happening. I’ve been practicing law a very long time, know my way around and I’m a good and considerate boss. The practice is in a beautiful office that is exquisitely furnished and appointed. When you walk into my office is it is comfortable, highly professional and definitely has the look of a well-established law office. How could this environment and the people attracted to work here be so out of sync? Whatever this was, it had to stop quickly. A few months earlier, I had read the book manifesting 123 and had met the author. After following the information in the book, I felt like I was having some small successes manifesting:  my own self-improvement, forgiveness, health, and financial success. A lot of what I was working to manifest was personal and conceptual, “blue sky” concepts for my self-image and personal renewal. After the incredible problems with the recent employees, I put Manifesting 123 on the job. As the book suggested, I made a Movie of my future with the perfect secretary doing a great job in the office. As I learned from the book, perfect is the best way to get what you require. I was definitely ready for the ideal person after those recent experiences. The solution came quickly. There is someone the building I’ve known for years and really admire. I ran into her at the building elevator and let her know I was looking for someone to handle the office. I was much surprised when she said she would take the job. I now rely on her to run the office – she is the answered prayer. She has also turned out to be a more positive influence in my life, a big gift. Looking back, I realize I was very trusting of other people that worked for me. That’s the way I want to operate, but there were some things I should have done myself, like being responsible for my personal checking accounts. After those checkbook fiascoes, my wife became more involved with the basic financial functions of the office, She is great at paying bills, balancing accounts and keeping a good eye on things. Now we are more of a team and well-informed about how the practice is operating. It is great to have her in the office with a flexible schedule that works for her. It is a dream come true to have two perfect people helping in the office. My wife’s involvement  has also improved what was already a very good marriage. What a bonus! I quickly manifested the solutions I needed and achieved some of the personal goals I have been striving for. Amazingly, my life is richer and happier, just as I had imagined in my future. I am gratefully living my personal and professional dreams. I would never planned it this way, but it has all worked out beautifully.   From all those lemons came a graceful solution  W. is a good and considerate man, deserving of better treatment. He is also a sensitive person, compelled to ask and manifest better traits in himself. After the series of employee debacles, he made a smart move. W. installed a new scene into the Movie of his future where his employee issues were resolved to perfection. He didn’t get more that he bargained for, as they say. He actually created the desired solutions for his professional and personal life and it all came together simply and elegantly. Here’s a nice trick. Train yourself to react to problems in this way: get into the habit of imagining yourself in your future where that problem doesn’t exist. Further, use the simple instructions in the book to downgrade and take action on the obstacle quickly, eliminating or diminishing worry. Your worries are thoughts powered by fear, a powerful combination and the opposite of your future filled with gratitude or love. Make what you desire and don’t bring your worries (your powerful thoughts) into reality. Imagine yourself creating great things!

Making My Life, Love and Career Happen!

Amy writes: So I’m trying to remember when I met you. I think it was last year in September and we talked about your book Manifesting 123. It wasn’t the first time I had been introduced to manifesting, but it was the first time I had heard of the technique to sit in my future and feel gratitude. That made a world of difference, not just for my meditations, but for my sanity. I have always been a dreamer and this was going to be the best kind of dreaming. Every night before I went to sleep, I would sit or lie down and then imagine I was in my future where everything was as I wished. In the book it’s called being in your Movie. At the time, I was living alone in a run down apartment, internet dating like crazy but not finding anyone promising. I was feeling unchallenged and underutilized at work.  I was doing everything I could to go deeper into myself and find out what was blocking my manifestations from coming true. I did plenty of different work shops, retreats, tons of reading, and even Family Constellation Therapy (very interesting). Soon I moved in with a good friend from work because our leases were ending around the same time. When deciding on lease times she insisted on a 6 month lease instead of a year. “You could be married in 6 months!” she said. I snorted and just figured that meant we would be renewing at higher rates. A couple of weeks in, we decided to start dispelling our negative beliefs. We picked six things that we believed negatively about ourselves and using Byron Katie’s “The Work,” went about working on each belief. Every day we had to find five pieces of evidence why our negative belief wasn’t true. It was a great exercise because it trained us to look for the good and not the bad in everyday situations, but still my prince charming and dream job had not come to bust down my door. Hmm… door. There had to be something there. I began to picture that all of my manifestations were on the other side of a door dying to break through, but I was so focused on the door they couldn’t get to me! I made an adjustment to my Movie. I imagined a knock at my door and I would get up and open the door. Sometimes I was surprised by what was on the other side of the door (a new job), and other times I got to choose. I imagined my man on the other side of the door simply oozing love and whisking me off! With all of these images, I offered the utmost gratitude. This seemed to do the trick because after canceling my subscription on my current dating site, a girlfriend persuaded me to sign up for a different one the next day. I did, and the first match I spoke with on the phone became the last. Four months later for my birthday he took me to Seattle and proposed to me on the pier behind Pikes Place Market! He had also been close to giving up on finding love. I was lucky enough to meet him in the last month of his dating site subscription. It has been a remarkable year and with much more to tell.

I am now married, living in a beautiful home, making more money at a better job, and I have never been happier! My new life, love and career is a perfect example that Manifesting 123 does in fact work.

Amy    Can you imagine that? Amy made it happen! Yes, she was familiar with manifesting but without success. After reading the book, she had just the tools to go forward. She was familiar with a number of manifesting approaches, but the simplicity and gratefulness of the Manifesting 123 were very appealing. Amy worked on her blocks, resulting in a more positive attitude. Very smart. There is something similar in the book.  It’s called the bonus and here it is. Say seven grateful things every day. There is great power when you combine gratitude with the images you are manifesting. By the way, you might want to say thank you to God or the God of your understanding for all you are grateful for. At the least, it’s good manners. 🙂 Manifesting 123 works, just ask Amy!

Sharon writes: In March 2013 I found out I had cancer and went to the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix for treatment. It was a major surgery, but thankfully, they got the cancer in time and I did not need chemo or radiation. The entire deal was very serious mentally and physically and I was wiped out. After the surgery, I arrived home to bad news. The guest cottage I’d rented for 13 years in St. Helena was no longer available. I was told that I had 60 days to move. The cottage is in the Napa Valley and affordable rentals there are incredibly hard to find. I spoke with Ken and he shared with me his recommendations using Manifesting 123. I put it right to work, visualizing the solution in my future.

Luckily I had a friend who let me rent her late mother’s furnished house in Napa while I continued to search, literally eight hours a day. During the time I was technically homeless, a big motivator! I had limited time at this temporary rental so I had to really focus. I was taking care of myself and as the books says, I was taking action on my fears, by looking for rentals and doing the manifesting techniques every day. I also have a meditation routine that I kept to. It kept my mind in check and gave me a sense of control and peace. After two months of looking, I put a deposit on an apartment in a large complex in Napa that was dark, old and expensive. It was not what I was looking for but it was all that was available in the area. At least I had secured a place to live. I continued to use what I had learned about manifesting, visualizing a number of things I desired, including my perfect home. I was not giving up on that!

Soon after, I was driving around the neighborhood and came upon a new complex in St. Helena that was not yet opened. Their certificate of occupancy was stuck in the local bureaucracy and they couldn’t give me any hope of when they would open for rentals. Durn! Then the big break came. Days later I drove by that new complex and to my surprise, the manager was on site with good news. They had just been given the green light to rent the apartments. I was the first one in! Can you believe that? What are the odds of getting the apartment and being first? It has turned out to be a dream come true. Finally, I have a home with lots of light, a separate office/studio, kitchen, garage, all appliances and everything is brand new. This is so much better than the guest house that I had been in for all of those years. I have created better things than I previously settled for and there is no stopping now. What’s the next big thing? I like the idea of my perfect career.

Dreams can come true! Oh yes, and I am soooo very grateful! Sharon 
…and she is just getting started. Sharon is a good friend and I’m am so relieved that she got through her serious illness and is in good health!

Just after recovering from a serious bout with cancer, she was dealt another blow. Health and home are basic to everyone and after working to regain her health, she found herself working hard to find a new place to live. But Sharon didn’t struggle, she worked smart. Using Manifesting123, she envisioned the perfect home in her future. Then she converted her fears to actions items, offloading that negative energy to a schedule of apartment hunting throughout the week.

She was new to this, without any special training or skills but Sharon got great results and was the first in line to achieve her dream.

Don’t settle, go to the front of the line yourself!

Your Checks are in the Mail!

Denae writes: I lost my corporate job in a lay off over a year ago and I had received the last severance check this past May. I was searching for employment and also researching a business that would be about helping others. I had read Manifesting 123 and I was using the ‘Movie’ to create a future where all my expenses and needs are taken care of.  I was at the point where I was going to need more income pretty quick. Around that time, I was talking to a friend. I was explaining the Manifesting 123 book to her and talking about how to use thought in the future you create to manifest things. Then it hit me. I remembered something from a film or book where a man went to a mailbox and retrieved envelops with checks in them. Up to this point my manifesting scenarios were very general and without visuals.  My friend and I immediately did our movies together and we felt profound love and gratitude for what we created in our futures. It was the first time I used a visual in my movie: seeing myself actually getting checks in the mail. I forgot about it until the next day. I went to my front door just as the mailman was coming up the walk. He handed me a stack of letter-sized envelopes. I knew what they were before I opened them. Unexpected checks! I got goose bumps all over. The envelopes contained twelve checks! The strange thing was that all twelve checks were from the hospital where I had therapy treatments almost two years before. Those were very expensive treatments mostly covered by insurance, and my co-payment portion was between $150-$200 each session. This group of checks totaled almost $2200 and there was no explanation for the refund. It was just a stack of checks without supporting paperwork! It was also odd that I had not received just one check, but multiple checks in separate envelopes. I called the hospital and was transferred around. When I finally got to the right department, the person on the phone couldn’t find a record of the checks or the reason I should have them. Finally, a supervisor said that I should just cash them. This unexpected blessing turned out to be just the right amount for me. I was able to meet my expenses comfortably and I continue to do so now. After that experience, I’ve been very encouraged to use Manifesting 123 daily and I am now manifesting many more things including my perfect career.   My daughter was skeptical of my story, saying that the hospital refund was in progress long before I did the movie. I personally have had convincing experiences showing me that time beyond the physical is not the same as the realm beyond our normal senses. In this other realm, there is no space/time. Regardless of what I think, it doesn’t have to make sense. I have clearly seen how thoughts create. It is for me to know and use. I have had others stories after taking the Manifesting 123 Workshop, but this one with the checks is the most dramatic so far.  This book is brilliant in its simplicity and goes beyond any other manifesting books or techniques I have come across. I have never heard anyone else explain the process of how we manifest before so clearly and simply. Thank you to Ken’s very special mentors! It makes perfect sense and understanding how thought really works makes all the difference. I love the part about addressing concerns or fears by scheduling actions too. As Ken says, we are already expert at manifesting. So decide on where you want to go and what you desire to do. Be aligned with your true purpose and dreams. Manifesting is incredibly useful and fun! One day results… amazing!   Denae was already using the Manifesting 123 techniques but she made two important changes. The first was to create a move where she actually saw the checks she received. Then she infused her scene with emotion and gratitude. I should point out that the solution didn’t have to be a check. Financial solutions come in a variety of ways: a reduction in rent, refunds, bonuses, gifts. These are the equivalents of money. When we have a problem fast approaching or surrounding us, it is normal to slide into worry and fear. Denae made the smart move. She envisioned a future where she saw the solution handed to her and she felt a grateful result. Please remember that fear and worries are thoughts and they create anything. Thought is a natural law like gravity. Gravity pulls things to the ground without judgement and it works equally for everyone. Your thoughts just make things, anything,  and it starts creating from your mind immediately.  Take advantage, get the book or listen to my interviews explaining it all for free here.

Left the Job, Security and Followed the Dream!

Image and story from Patrice Federspiel, artist   website In Wisconsin, my routine for years was getting up at 4:30 am to paint or sculpt before going to work. I knew if I waited until the end of the day to create, I would not have the energy. The job came first and being an artist was a struggle. Every morning I would ask aloud, “How can I paint full time?” Ask and it is given, we have all heard this mantra. Still, I was completely surprised when, after 3-4 years of asking, the opportunity presented itself. Winter in Wisconsin is cold and snowy, so in January 2000, a friend and I decided to take a one-week vacation to visit a friend who was a grad student in Hawai’i. Back then I knew next-to-nothing about the Hawaiian Islands. I had lived my entire life in Wisconsin. My trip to Hawai’i was meant to be a spiritual quest, to put a foot into the Pacific Ocean and to visit a friend in grad school, Sarah. I had absolutely no intention of staying. Sarah had just moved into a tiny garage apartment on the Island. She was a busy teacher’s assistant and writing a grant proposal to do research at the Smithsonian in Washington DC. She paid her rent by doing yard work for a University of Hawai’i professor who owned the house. We hardly saw Sarah that week. Instead, my Wisconsin friend and I explored the beaches on O’ahu and spent three days at the Kilauea Volcano on the big island of Hawai’i. On our last day, we snorkeled at Hanauma Bay. Later we walked the length of Waimanalo Beach, where we came upon a tour group with boogie boards. I had never even seen boogie board before, but I knew I HAD to ride one. A tour guide took me out and caught a wave for me. Not knowing what to do, I jumped up on my knees and rode in to shore. What fun! The next, larger wave washed the board right out from under me, but I didn’t care. I had been transformed by the experience. It was time to leave the beach; we had to get ready for the airport flight back home. As we walked back to our car, I turned around to wave good-bye to the tour guide. He waved back and tears of gratitude and joy streamed down my face. Suddenly I thought: “What will Sarah do if she gets her research grant to work in DC? She wouldn’t want to lose an apartment where she didn’t pay rent! I could quit my job, sell my house, and take care of that apartment for her. I could PAINT!” In order to keep the bolt of energy I felt running through me, I repeated those same words, out loud this time. Later that day when Sarah showed us her apartment, I asked what she would do if she got the grant. She said if I were to house sit, it would be the perfect solution. I took her up on it! After three months, I learned that Sarah got the grant! To make this work, I had six weeks to quit my job, sell my house, and move. I had never moved out of Wisconsin before. This was a HUGE decision.  I didn’t know what I was getting myself into, but I knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My idea of security was turned on its head. It felt riskier to stay in my very stable, wonderful job, in my own comfortable home near the arboretum in Madison, than to make this move. The day came when I was living in Hawai’i and took Sarah to catch her plane to DC. It was then I realized I didn’t know anyone on O’ahu. I was thousands of miles and five time zones away from family and friends. It has been hard and lonely at times, but I wouldn’t change any of the past 14 years for a minute! I have learned SO much about art, about myself, and about life in general since my first boogie board ride. Time after time doors have opened for me in Hawai’i. Yes, I have worked very hard. I was an oil painter in Wisconsin. I learned to paint with watercolors after realizing the small space of Sarah’s apartment could be lethal when combined with fumes from the oils. One of the most important things I’ve learned is that we don’t have to know all the steps needed to reach our goal. What is needed is an area of focus, a strong desire, a great deal of perseverance and the willingness to take a risk. I had absolutely no idea when I first decided to visit Hawai’i that I would be living here today. It simply never occurred to me. But I did know what I wanted to do. I wanted to paint full time. That is what I do now. Reaching a goal is always about putting one foot in front of the other – over and over and over again. Be prepared for anything, and something will happen. As Dale Carnegie once said: “Set your mind on a goal, burn all of your bridges behind you, then watch how quickly the world steps aside to let you pass.”   This is classic Manifesting: ask, repeat, act. Patrice had a foremost goal and that was to be a full-time artist. She owned a home and had a comfortable job but it was all backwards. The job took precedence over being a professional artist. This was the driver, “Every morning I would ask aloud, “How can I paint full time?” Eventually the opportunity came in two ways: a remarkable environment to live in and an apartment at just about zero cost. It was quite a leap, but as she said, many doors have opened for her. Part of her process was to evaluate security vs. happiness, something we all have encountered or presently struggle with. It takes smarts and bravery sometimes but you can also have
