From S*** to Shineola
A couple of years back, my good friend W had a big problem. She purchased a wonderful home, decorated it beautifully and settled in. She is a realtor, was doing pretty well and now that the house was squared away, she thought about getting a better car – a must for driving prospective buyers around. Her present car was just hanging on and it was time to move quickly. Besides, it was very important to have a more reliable care and to project more successful image. Yes, in this newsletter there have been an inordinate number of cars manifested lately, but stay with me….So far so good. Her budget didn’t allow a new car, but a great, used car would do just fine, so she decided to start looking. But then this terrible thing happened. It was coming from the basement and it smelled awful. The smell told her to call a plumber to come by and investigate. A pipe had burst under the solid concrete basement floor. There was no way to fix the problem except by tearing up the concrete and finding the broken pipe underneath. It was going to cost about $7000 to correct the disaster and it was getting worse by the day. There goes the new car right down the drain. By the way, her present car was having real problems of it’s own. She let someone borrow it, the person had an accident and totaled the car. What a catastrophe, but at least the driver of her car was OK. There would be some insurance money coming in but not enough to get a proper new car and fix the basement problem. Ouch! Soon after, W. and two of her friends came over to talk about manifesting. They brought the dinner, we had fun just talking and then we got down to business. I went through the manifesting ideas with all three and at the end of the evening I said, “All I want to do is set you on fire.” I wished them well and they all went home to bed. That night, each woke suddenly at 3am and had an amazing experience. Sorry, but I’ll write up those experiences in another newsletter. For now I’ll tell you that morning something profound happened to each one. It was not just one of those things… W was inspired by the experience. She had worked on manifesting her desires and this plumbing problem was very much in the way. So that same morning she called the builder of her home. W. didn’t buy this home new, she was the second buyer and so the house was out of warranty, but she called anyway. As it turns out, she was connected to a person with real authority and since he was in the area, he came right over to see what the problem was. After a quick look, the builder’s representative declared that they would repair the problem at no charge. This builder would not allow a flaw like this to go forward and possibly spoil the firms reputation. The plumbing was fixed and in a couple of days W. found her perfect used car. She drove it over and I thought it was brand new! It was a beautiful Lexus sedan at a price that was just perfect. W. is a good friend and works my neighborhood, giving me numerous opportunities to see her driving her ideal car. I chuckle every time this story comes to mind… from you know what to shineola! It all comes together, but not the way you might plan it. What a story. What a mess in the basement with a car wreck piled on. What back luck, but W went to work manifesting and not only did she have a remarkable event that woke her up that night (I promise more of that story later) but in the morning her solution was at hand. Just the right person was at the builder’s office to take the call and it set everything into motion. All the problems vanished and she was left with all the money necessary to get what she wanted in the first place, the perfect car. It’s the one in the photo at the top. It was all in the asking, then going forward to make that call…. Got a story to pass on? We’d love to hear more! Ken Notes: Upcoming internet radio interviews, workshops and lectures in Denver, Salt Lake and Georgia are posted on the website event page. Plans are in the works for more workshops in Vancouver and elsewhere to be announced. Contact Ken about a workshop with your group or in your area. Do you have your own story to share?

Manifesting the Perfect Job +
Yesterday I got laid off my job, but it was perfect. My present company paid for my relocation here, but since they laid me off, I don’t have to pay back the $8,000 relocation fee. I have been working on manifesting my perfect job and so far, so good. Being laid off is unusual, but it is real progress toward my happy goal. That job was not the best thing for me and in leaving, I got a major break on waiving that relocation fee too. It would have really held me there. So, here I am, happy in this new town and free of those burdens. Then came that good break. Last week the local Humane Society asked me to shoot stills and video of the potential pets for them. Terrific! The work I did connected animals at the Society with their new owners. (One of the dogs up for adoption is pictured above.) But there’s more. The Choral Society here asked me to help with their marketing. I’m free from the everyday repetition of a ‘standard’ job and I am doing the things I love. It is perfect that both of these new jobs are in line with the life theme I set for myself: “Exploring Mindfully Creative Connections.” I am so very grateful for this outcome. And it keeps coming…. Then I learned my friend’s golden retriever, Beauregard has a malignant polyp. That’s not good news, so my friend and I went right to work on manifesting a good outcome. We have been writing the dog’s ‘movie’ for days now. In his movie, Beauregard is thinner, active and leaping over waves in the ocean. In his future, he is well and healthy. Today Beauregard went in for surgery. They removed the tumor without an incision so recovery will be much faster. There was only one tumor and the cancer it is not in the lymph nodes or the blood. The doctor said that in a few days we will see clean margins at the operation site and all will be well. This is what my manifestation world looks like. Thank you! T Expect the obvious and the unexpected. … and can you have influence beyond yourself? (continued from earlier in the week) What a sweet outcome. It’s tough to move to a new place with a new job. It’s tougher still to discover that you aren’t happy with the job you moved there for. Ouch! T. began to work on manifesting a new job. No, that would be too limiting. Instead, she had a broader idea, a better career that fits her life theme. She didn’t specify an office with a desk or imagine in detail what this career had to be. As a result, she manifested two happy results and there will surely be more. As for Beauregard, what a lucky dog! He had two people visualizing the same outcome for him. In an earlier newsletter this week, a daughter used the ‘movie’ technique to aid her mother’s car repair. Here’s the story. You can have influence in the field around you and others. For yourself – absolutely, and for others you can have an influence as well but it may be a lesser one. Do it anyway. It doesn’t hurt and sometimes you get a very good result. But keep in mind that you can’t run another person’s 100-yard dash or take their math test for them. Sometimes it is beyond your reach to do so. If you are inclined, use prayer. It is a powerful way to extend your reach for others and yes, yourself as well.Don’t forget that we are all worthy. Congratulations on the new career launch T. and many more happy days for Beauregard! Ken Do you have your own story to share? Please send it in via the contact form.

Got it Fixed in Five Days
Last Sunday, my mom and I were on the way to the theater and the “check engine” light came on in her car. She became very agitated and stressed because she loves the freedom of the open road and suddenly no longer felt safe driving her car. I suggested that we start manifesting a solution. However, she was really too stressed to hear me and simply couldn’t focus on manifesting or anything else other than getting home and parking her car in the garage. So I quietly started to run a “movie” about her car being fixed for an “affordable and reasonable price” by someone reliable so that she would once again feel safe in her car. On Monday morning I called her and asked what the game plan was for the car. She said she was working on some options. Once again, I quietly ran the “movie”. On Tuesday afternoon, I asked her what options she had thought of. She had made a list of garages that she was going to call for estimates. I suggested that she should also call the dealership just for a price comparison. As I hung up the phone, I again ran the “movie”. On Wednesday when I talked to her, she had called 3 garages and the dealership. Surprisingly, the dealership had the best prices and she had booked an appointment for the next morning. As I fell asleep, I ran the “movie” – twice this time just to supercharge it! Bright and early Thursday morning she had her appointment at the dealership. About 2pm, I received a text message from mom saying that the mechanic had run a complete diagnostic and couldn’t find anything wrong. He reset the onboard computer and the “check engine” light went off. The mechanic also gave her a short list of items that should be checked in the next few months, but nothing that would stop her from driving safely in her car. As she went to check out with the cashier, they washed and vacuumed her car. When she asked the cashier how much she owed, the cashier told her that the diagnostic fee had been waived and she didn’t owe anything … not one cent!!! How is that for an “affordable and reasonable price”?! LOL!! Thank you, thank you for teaching me how to run the “movie”!! 😀 With enormous gratitude and appreciation, Sandi Can you have influence beyond yourself? Yes you can. In manifesting anything is possible if you can think it…and here comes the qualifier. You can certainly help yourself but when it comes to directly helping others, your intentions are often less effective. Those that are close to us are within their own walk in life, with the everyday ups and downs for their individual lives. You can’t simply step in and run their 100 yard dash or take their calculus exam. These challenges for for them to learn. The good news is that you can have influence in the field around yourself and others as well. I can’t know with certainty, but perhaps the engine repair wasn’t mom’s ‘test,’ it was an everyday problem waiting for a solution. The happy result could have been just one of those nice events that come along or perhaps Sandi had some influence in mom’s field. It’s an encouraging story and as someone said to me after a manifesting success of my own, “Now do you see what you can do?” Sandi, don’t stop now! Thank you for your kind words, Ken Do you have your own story to share? Please send it in via the contact form. You will be kept anonymous but your encouraging story will wrap the world.
Manifesting Colorado, via Las Vegas!
I visited Colorado for business and instantly fell in love with the beauty that the state had to offer and all the wonderful people there. While I was in Colorado, I kept thinking to myself, how nice it would be to live here. Logically, this would be very difficult to say or certainly do. I was in the middle of a major career transition and money was an issue, not to mention finding a place to live when I currently resided several states away. When I returned to my home state, I prepared the way and put into practice what I had learned from Ken Elliott for manifesting a move to Colorado. I had no idea how I was going to come up with the money, how to do it, or how it was going to happen. I knew in my heart that it was going to happen. It wasn’t long after that I had an opportunity to travel back to Colorado for business. This time I decided to drive and spend the night in Las Vegas, making the 2 day trip more manageable. All the way, I was playing my “movie” and I could see my life in Colorado as if it was already happening. I arrived in Vegas after 5pm, checked in to my hotel room and after dinner decided to play a little on the slot machines. I’m not a big gambler, so this was just for fun and something to pass the time. It wasn’t long however, (a whopping 10 minutes max!) that all of the lights on my slot machine lit up. I had just won $5000! After collecting my winnings, I went back to my hotel room. I was overcome with gratitude. I knew that all of that talk about “running your movie” that I had learned in Manifesting 123, had now manifested the money that I need to make my move and then some! I now live blissfully in the state that I love, surrounded by people who add so much joy and fulfillment to my life! I feel so Blessed! Thank you Universe! Joyce Not the plan…well, kinda. Joyce had a plan. Well, not really, but she was pointing herself to Colorado by using the manifesting technique of her ‘movie’ to imagine she was already there. Moving to Colorado was going to be complicated. She would need a new job, a place to live, and somehow pay for the change. She stayed with the idea and continued the manifesting techniques until the solution arrived. She didn’t plan on gambling her way to a solution, it just fell into her lap on day – in 10 minutes! Just to be clear, let’s not all run off to Vegas and gamble as a business plan. On the other hand, if a large amount of money or the equivalent of money suddenly falls into your lap and it solves a current problem…. You just may have manifested that solution. Would you like the bells and lights going off in your future? Check out the Lisa Starves radio interview below. I’ll explain further and I have a couple of fascinating stories to tell – like you have never heard before. Your story is next! Ken ________________________________ Want more?

Wow… it’s much Better at Work Now
Two months ago, I picked up a copy of Manifesting 123 and began to use the techniques. In my job I’m like a doorman. I am one of many people on 24/7 shifts that give people secure access to their homes. I really like the work but it’s difficult to get one of the better shifts so I can have weekend time off. Also, I needed to bring in more income. A second job worked in the past, but it is tiring and the changing shifts at my primary job created complications with the second one. What I really needed was one job with hours that allowed me to have a more social life. Also I needed more income to pay the bills with money left over for the good things in life. Well, nothing changes with shift assignments unless someone leaves and getting a good raise is really uncommon. So I decided to try the Manifesting 123 techniques. The stories in the book were pretty amazing and having nothing to loose, I gave it a shot. I did the techniques every day for about two months before I got that call. One of the staffers left, opening up a very plum shift with the weekend off. I was offered the slot and I took it immediately. There was a second surprise. I was offered a nice raise, one that would make a real difference. It was a double wow! There was another intention I was working on as well, a lovely companion. She recently appeared and my life is in such a better place than just a few months ago. Everything came together so smoothly. Was it the book? I can’t really know, but I’m definitely sticking with this manifesting program. Thank you, E That’s a lot of good I’m so glad that E. gave manifesting a try. His results are a dream come true, but aren’t they what he was working toward? He was using Manifesting 123 to bring in a better working schedule, more income and a nice companion. With very little effort on his part, these three intentions appeared in a most agreeable way. I did a radio interview last Sunday ( link below) and commented that it is hard to convince people of something that is too good to be true and so very easy to do. It is the stories from everyday people that show people what is possible. These stories are the proof in the pudding that encourages people to say, “Why not?” and find out for themselves. I hope to be passing on your good result here soon!

So Much Has Changed!
Jane writes: It is AMAZING how this works. I’m on Day 7, and I cannot believe how many things have just manifested. The important part is the “AND I AM SO GRATEFUL!” It all began when I was finally got the book, then I began to formulate my “movies.” In one of my movies, I visualized my physical body as being healthy and strong. I wasn’t imagining my 50 year old body as “buff” or “ripped” and I didn’t have “buns of steel.” In my movie I was just standing straight and tall, smiling, healthy, strong, and fit. Standing next to me was my life partner feeling exactly the same. The image was so powerful, and I was SO grateful. I created a flash flood of gratitude for that vision of my future! That night I happened to mention to my partner that I wanted to be strong and fit again. In the past when I talked about getting healthy, he came up with a laundry list of excuses not to. I would get discouraged and agree with him, so we never took any action other than finding reasons not to. The next time I asked it was different. He agreed with me that he would like to be more fit too, but instead of just making excuses, he suggested that we go for a walk. Our previous walks consisted of a short stroll to the end of our short street and back again. It hardly counted as exercise. As before, we walked to the end of the street, but now we agreed that it was a fine night and we should walk a little further. We picked up our pace and walked almost a mile. Since then, we’ve headed outside every chance we get, usually every other day. We are exercising together for the first time in YEARS. No arguments, excuses, guilt, effort, plan, equipment, pep talks, struggle, pain, and no gym memberships! The next thing I knew, we just started getting healthier. It is nearly unbelievable how quickly and effortlessly this came about. Another thing I visualized was me creating new “giftable art” products for the holidays that were fast, fun, and easy to make. On my way home from work I stopped at the corner thrift shop and found 20 small journals that I paid only $6 for. I quickly figured out how to transform those 30 cent journals into $15 journals in two easy steps. They sold IMMEDIATELY. I made $294 for about an hour’s work! After using the techniques in Manifesting 1,2,3, I’ve seen lots of big and little changes, but the biggest change is in my attitude. Whenever I find myself running my old “poor me” scenarios, I switch over to a manifesting movie instead. It improves my outlook and confidence immediately. In small but significant ways, I am manifesting a healthier mindset, body, relationship, and bank account! Manifesting 1,2,3 has worked like nothing else I’ve tried before. My “movies” and my life are getting better and better. I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am to you for bringing Manifesting 1,2,3 into being. Jane What the heck?? Jane just grabbed the book an jumped right in. She was using Manifesting #1 to visualize being in her future and she was grateful for what she was experiencing. It was just that simple. She imagined that in her future she was experiencing health for the two of them and successfully selling her new creations. It this instance, everything fell into place quickly. Her partner was swept into the movie as well. I suspect that his inclination to be healthier was simply tipped over to the positive, but what a difference. An important side effect is how Jane’s attitude changed. What a priceless result. Jane is creating more than just art. She has materialized a new life with a cherry on top. Amazing! You might want to give it a try yourself…what the heck? Notes: Upcoming internet radio interviews, workshops and lectures in Denver and Georgia are posted on the website event page.

We Went for the Dream Home
We went for the dream home: My wife and I had a dream to move from our house of the last 11 years. Our dream house would be a newly built home, ranch style. quiet (no dogs barking all the time), bigger kitchen, room for an art studio, and an uninterrupted view of the mountains, We wrote down our intention and “put it out there” on a regular basis. Last November, we found a new house model that we really liked and eventually found a lot that had the view but had not yet been released. On a Saturday in January we got a call at 7AM from the builder saying that the lot was now available. We quickly signed up for the lot and house that morning. Since it was new construction, we got to pick the finishes and customize our very first new home. Eight months later we moved in. It was our dream come true. We won’t know about the lack of dog barking until the other houses are finished, but all of the other criteria were met, and at a price we could afford. Steve There is no place like home… Ruby Slippers at the hearth? Few things are more exciting than getting a new home and in this case, a home newly built for this wonderful couple. When Steve told me his story I got a big laugh. Steve is a close friend and I had been telling him – bugging him about manifesting for a couple of years. His wife is fine with the concept but it was not Steve’s inclination to use the manifesting techniques. So when he told me that he and his wife had manifested together for this new home, it was a real surprise – he had been working undercover, a secret manifesting agent! I wonder what he is working on now?? Wish big like Steve! Ken Notes: This little big book just hit its third printing in only three months! People in the publishing business are still amazed at the response and in a month Manifesting 123 will begin to be distributed to bookstores nationally.I have new workshops about to be announced in Denver, Salt Lake and Vancouver. I just finished one in Denver last weekend and we all thoroughly enjoyed the very empowering experience. It was great fun!There are upcoming internet radio interviews and lectures in Texas and Georgia posted on the website event page.
So What’s Happened Lately? Recapping your stories
From Ken: What a ride this has been! For two years before the publication of this book, I was talking about the Manifesting 123 techniques virtually every day to someone. It was a thrill to offer this information to friends and acquaintances and hear many of their successful stories afterwards. After the first year it did occur to me that I should write a book, so I started telling my friends that I’m gonna, thinking, shouldda, yeah I’m writing it. People who had been studying manifesting for years kept telling me they had never heard the revolutionary information about how your thoughts actually form up and they were very happy to have a new and real solution to deal with worries in their lives. So what has happened so far? A large number of people have been getting this book and manifesting results. They are also telling their friends about it. A number of people have bought large quantities of books to give away or resell and they have asked me to speak in their cities and to their groups.Of the first 10 books sold, three of them went overseas and that trend continues. My goal with this book was to get this important information out and with your help, make a very big wave in the world. With the marvelous information I was given and had experienced, I crafted a book that was simply written and easy to understand. I made it clear that you don’t have to have special skills or be magically endowed to do this. You don’t even have to believe it works. This book is the basic manual on manifesting, but is just another book unless there are good outcomes. Here’s the fun part: all kinds of people of all ages and all walks of life are using the techniques in this book successfully. Readers feel that manifesting 123 may be responsible for some of these personal events and they feel compelled to send in their encouraging stories. I, and many followers of this newsletter and the website thank you and encourage you to send in more! Many stories have been published here and many yet unpublished are still evolving. Three new jobs have appeared and two of them were critical: one for a family with a new baby and another for someone who was a month from eviction. Two people miraculously recovered a passport and drivers license very quickly while they were waiting in airport security. Those items had to be found offsite and brought to the airport within 1-2 hours. A business bank loan came through for more money than was originally requested. Three perfect residences have been miraculously found and a number of homes have been sold rather quickly and at a very agreeable price. Someone who really needed to catch a flight home and was number 12 on standby got on the flight to the delight of the people in the terminal who were watching the drama unfold. A brand-new computer was given to someone who really needed it then, with terms to pay back however she wished. There have been four sizable checks that came in the mail totally unexpectedly and from not the usual sources. Three perfect cars have been acquired along with the money to pay for them. A many people have expressed their gratitude that they feel better mentally, physically and spiritually. It’s as if their lives have more clarity and they are less burdened after using the techniques in the book. Currently there are three new romances that have been manifested. I hope someday soon those currently enjoying this new phase of their lives will share their stories with us! wink… I’m sorry to run on long here, but your stories are the lovely proof that Manifesting 123 works! As a reader wrote this week, “Keep the stories coming, I just love them!” I hope to see you this Sunday at the Denver workshop, September 29th. There will be a bonus… Ken
The Equivalent of Money
The Equivalent of Money Someone manifested another car! Emma in Sweden writes: For about a fortnight, I have been thinking how much I would like to have a car of my own. I don’t need one; the public transport here is fine and I’ve managed that perfectly. If I need a car, I ask to borrow Steven’s and he’s always very good and hands over the keys, but I feel bad about it. So after we moved to our house (which is another 123 story!!) I have been looking at cars on the road and wondering what, and how I could buy one. I said to Steven that it’s not enough to get enough money for the car, there is also insurance, petrol etc… so, how is that going to happen? We do our manifesting together every morning for 15 minutes. Mine begins with a new car. But I’ve had trouble with it! What kind of a car? Big? Small? Colour?? So it didn’t feel right. Then I opened your book and you mentioned something about that red car. Oh! That sounds good! I want a red car. So now I visualize my future where I roll into my driveway in a red car. Then I looked at red cars and didn’t like them! Noooo, not quite a red car……. hmmm….. We were driving this Monday and passed a car that caught my eye. That’s a nice car! Yes, agreed Steven. It’s a Nissan Note, that’s easy to remember, we laughed. When I got home, I looked on the internet for a Nissan Note for sale in my town. I found one. Red. Hmmm….. then I looked at the other pictures of it, inside and out and could not believe my eyes. I loved it. I called Steven and he looked at the pictures with me. Very nice car, he said. Good price. Impatiently I tugged at his sleeve and said: AND? Can’t you see it has my name on it? This is going to be my car! I can feel it in my gut, I just know it. But how? I pointed out one picture of the back side…. the license plate was EHS. My initials and S, for Steven – as he’s in my movie too! He really laughed with me! So, how was I going to get this car? I opened your book again and read about your conversation with the out of body author, William Buhlman. He discussed the thoughts forming like clouds in the non-physical realm and the more you think, the stronger the images get. OK, I’m going to bring out my secret weapon. Manifesting on Tuesday morning: I was now very clear about what kind of a car I was driving: the Red Nissan Note. In my mind I formed the image in the clouds, from a weak whisper to a stronger cloud. Once the outlines were there, I brought out my weapon. I imagined a long, white feather. I stroked the cloud shape and painted it red, so it was more solid, it looked like it was ready to be “born” and looked like my Nissan. Am I cheating??? The following day, Wednesday, I did it again. Later in the day Thursday I looked for it on the web, phew, it was still there of course, it was mine. I was supposed to start a new painting on Thursday but nothing was right, so I put my paints down and went for a walk. On the way back, I picked up my mail and there was a letter from the UK. I opened the letter and was lost for words. It was from the Pension Service in UK. They had agreed to pay my pension to Sweden backdated a year with a regular monthly sum. The amount was way over what I needed for the car and then the monthly payments would more than take care of the upkeep. I didn’t jump up and down and scream, I was dumbfounded! When Steven got home, he thought something terrible had happened as I was in shock. “I’m getting that car!” I said, just amazed. I called the car shop and made an appointment this morning, saw the car and I signed on the dotted line! I will get it next week, once I have sorted the transfers and they clean it, just for me. So there…. ha ha ha! Thank you! Now I’m using my weapon every morning!! All the best, Emma Henson, Sweden It’s not always about the money. Emma purchased one of the first 10 books sold, three of which sold overseas. It has been a thrill to hear all that she has been bringing into her life.In this story it focused on the car, a red one. (Yes, there have been other car successes recently.) The problem was how to pay and continue to maintain the car of her dreams. As it says in the book, she went to her future and imagined herself in precisely the car she wanted. Apparently it was waiting for her in the ads, but how to pay for it? Emma didn’t dwell on the how but she took her visualizing further, using a feather to shape and color it in. Did she cheat? Of course not – she was magnifying her intention and aiding her visualization. Brilliant, and she got results! The money for purchase AND maintenance just appeared unexpectedly as if by magic. She didn’t have to work the extra job or win a lottery. Call it the equivalent of money. It spends like money and comes every month, without any additional effort on Emma’s part. Let Manifesting 123 work for you! Ken
