How To Make Money And Easily Serve Your Customers

TL;DR: Debra’s $10K breakthrough wasn’t about building a website—it was about rewriting beliefs. Discover how letting go of hustle unlocked her worthiness and aligned her with true abundance.

It’s been a crazy good week for nearly every Positively Focused client. My week has been the same. I want to share all that happened, but there’s so much, I don’t think I can get it all in before next week comes.

So let’s start with this wonderful realization one client had around a new customer she got. I think it’s an experience everyone can relate to. Most people believe you have to work hard to earn money. And for this one client, Debra, that belief showed up loud and clear—just as she was about to receive a $10,000 payment.

Debra is a talented entrepreneur who recently signed a client for a $10,000 website build. The client was eager, ready, and willing to pay. The project would meet all their needs, and Debra already knew the simplest, most elegant way to deliver: by using Squarespace. But instead of feeling excited, Debra was feeling something else entirely—stress, guilt, and resistance.

“I’m feeling this anxiety,” she said in our session. “Like, this shouldn’t be so easy. I should be doing more for $10,000.”

That thought—so familiar to so many—was rooted in a powerful, deeply held belief: that money must be earned through hard work. Debra’s entire system, built from family dynamics and work culture, told her this project required sweat, struggle, and complexity. Squarespace? That felt like cheating.

Going deeper

Debra’s husband, Jim, had offered her practical advice. “He said, ‘They don’t care how you do it. They just want a website that works.'” But Jim’s words, while logical, didn’t land. Why? Because the discomfort wasn’t coming from the client’s expectations—it was coming from Debra’s beliefs.

In the Positively Focused practice, we say: There is no amount of effort that can overcome belief momentum. That means: if your beliefs say you have to suffer to be worthy of receiving, then suffering is what you’ll get—even if everything around you says otherwise.

That’s what was happening with Debra.

So we went deeper. I asked her to explore where that belief came from. She said, “It’s definitely from my upbringing. And my time in corporate. It’s always been: prove your value, grind, deliver more than expected.”

Let the Universe do the heaving lifting and life just gets better and more fun. Just the way it was meant to be.

And yet, her life now looks very different. She’s manifesting clients. Debra’s building a business rooted in her values. She’s in the process of unlearning that old belief system—but the old momentum is still active.

“The Universe doesn’t need your effort,” I reminded her. “It wants your alignment. The work is in tuning your beliefs so they match what you are: someone worthy of receiving.”

As we moved through the process together, something softened. She laughed. The tension in her voice began to dissolve.

Then she said, “Oh my god. This really isn’t about the client at all. It’s me. It’s all me.”

Exactly.

Giving ourselves permission

When we believe money comes through effort, we trap ourselves in a pattern where ease feels suspicious, even “lazy”. And yet, manifestations—including financial ones—don’t come from how much we do. They come from how much we align. Action doesn’t create outcomes; it places us at the coordinates where the outcome is already happening as a result of our alignment.

Debra had aligned with a $10,000 client. The evidence was already there and it came effortlessly. But her beliefs hadn’t caught up yet. That’s where the real work was. By the end of our session, she said:

“I feel so much better. That anxiety—it’s not there anymore. I can see how I was making it about the money, but it’s not. It’s about me giving myself permission to receive.”

That’s what the Positively Focused practice is all about. You don’t need to hustle harder to get what you want. You don’t need to manipulate the outer world. All that’s needed is tuning to your inner world.

Because it’s not the work that earns the money. It’s your alignment that opens the door to it. Debra’s journey is one all of us are on. We’ve been taught to glorify effort, to earn our worth, to doubt our ease. But there’s another way—a way that honors our inherent value, aligns us with joy, and makes room for the abundance that’s always trying to reach us.

That’s the work worth doing. And it begins not with effort, but with belief. Feel the joy of being in alignment with the abundance that is yours. Become a client. We always have your back.

How Hating People Can Destroy Business Opportunity

An interesting dynamic/trend showed up in my client practice in the last few weeks. The trend prompts from within me a question worth asking: Does humanity hate itself?

Of course, this is NOT a dominant vibration across all humanity. LOVE is the dominant vibration. But humans “enjoy” free will. Some can, therefore, turn towards “the dark side”. And, apparently, some do, while not really knowing that’s what’s happening.

Two clients find themselves now looking at misanthropic beliefs driving interactions with people in their lives. One person’s experience, who I wrote a long post about, publishes in July. Today, I want to talk about what another client and I uncovered.

This client runs a business. I wrote about her experience before this week, here, and here. Her business has few customers, all reflecting the current state of the owner’s alignment (aka “being a match”) to the version of the business representing “success”. The customers she does have are, of course, people. Like all humans, they have beliefs and momentum stemming from those beliefs, many of which are distorted. So, depending on how one views those people, they show up in different ways.

“Ghosts” as co-creators

I call this client “Madison” in the previous posts. At first, Madison, was excited to have these customers. But as time went on and these people’s “peopling” emerged, so too did Madison’s misanthropic beliefs.

“I like people…to an extent.” She said when I asked her about complaints she made about her customers.

I would think she would hold very positive beliefs about these people. They are, after all, paying her and co-creating her business along with her into exactly what Madison wants. And yet, she focused on what’s wrong (in her eyes) with these customers rather than everything going right with them.

What’s really interesting is, her complaints about the customers caused those troubles she sees in them to dominate her awareness. Two of the customers, according to Madison, “ghosted” her, for example. They would not return her calls after the first conversation in which they showed initial interest. Meanwhile, I knew both customers were in the bag, so to speak, that they were going through their own internal processes to become the customers Madison wanted.

In the bag

But all my client could see was what she believed to be evidence that they were NOT in the bag. Which is why when I reminded her she had these two customers, she got really frustrated with me. She could only see evidence aligned with what she believed. Not what I knew. She was right. I was wrong. The customers were NOT customers.

But they were. Of course, Universe had the last word on this.

One of the customers is Madison’s dentist. Madison told me during our conversation where she ranted about how this customer ghosted her, that she had a dental appointment in the next few days. She worried about how awkward that appointment will be given the current status of the deal.

I reminded her the deal is in the bag and not to worry about it. She wasn’t hearing that, however.

Sure enough, though, after her appointment, Madison called me excited. She said the receptionist enthusiastically told her the dentist was eager to talk with her about the deal. They were ready to move forward, the receptionist said, and wanted to get a date on the calendar to get started.

My client said she was concerned about setting that meeting on a day where the dentist had patients. Madison didn’t want to inconvenience him. But the dentist, while examining my client, cut to the quick: he said he wanted to get this work done and told her not to worry about that. Let’s just get it on the calendar, he said.

When they did meet, Madison told me, the dentist didn’t haggle. He didn’t resist anything. He was good to go at the full price my client initially quoted. A full-price paying client in the bag!

Distortion kills relationships

So this is really instructive: Our beliefs about people shape what we see in people. Our beliefs can create or hinder any potential. Had the client not been in the Positively Focused practice, she might have taken action based on her “ghosting” belief that could have completely severed the deal and confirmed her negative interpretation.

How many times have we held a belief about someone, an interpretation, which triggered frustration or anger in us, then we acted on that frustration or anger in a way which killed the relationship, a relationship that could have gone the other way had we held a different belief about it and acted from that belief instead?

Relationships, intimate ones and business ones, have ended simply because of distortions active among the parties invovled. Madison’s kerfluffle with her employee, which I wrote about in the posts I linked to earlier in this post, was based on such distortions. Distortions both parties — Madison and Jane — held about the other. Madison was ready to let Jane go.

Today, they’re stronger than ever and committed to using the practice to see the best in each other. That’s a really good thing and a great outcome from a strongly negative experience.

Becoming gods that we are

There are a lot of people in the world right now railing against other people. Their beliefs about those people aren’t positive. When we point a finger at another, in blame or accusation, three fingers remain pointing back at us. This tells us, what we blame or accusation another about, exists in us in abundance. And so does the solution to what we’re complaining about.

Complaint contains strong belief momentum. That momentum, persisted with, will eventually gain more momentum, leading to misanthropy, which is a chronic state of complaint about people. That momentum will inspire matching behavior in us as well as behavior confirming beliefs we have about those we revile. And that explains why so many harbor such lowly beliefs about their fellow humans.

They’re creating the versions of those people they hate.

The good news is, it’s not permanent. Everyone releases such distortions after death. But why wait until then? Like Madison, we can walk into a new world, one where everyone becomes for us the angels that they are, reflecting back to us what is dominant in us. In other words, we can reveal to ourselves what others really are: servants of our sovereign expansion.

We can do that now, in this life. We don’t have to wait until after death. But we must choose. Then we must devote ourselves to this worthy cause. The cause that is our expansion into our greater god-self.

How To Start A Business With No Experience…Effortlessly

TL;DR: A client became a life coach effortlessly—not by training or chasing clients, but by aligning with the version of themselves who already is one. By soothing limiting beliefs and embracing their natural gifts, they began attracting ideal reflections. This story shows how manifestation unfolds through vibrational alignment and trust.

A client wants to be a life coach. It’s going to be an awesome practice. They are a natural at helping people find their empowerment and they’ve been doing that for a while. But only with friends. Not with clients. And not for hire. Becoming a “life coach” is something they’ve always wanted. And so that’s the main reason for them becoming a Positively Focused client. That and settling some old relationship momentum.

This client is a natural coach because they’re predisposed to this You Create Your Own Reality (YCYOR) business. Some might call them gifted. Others might call them Wiccan. Both would be accurate. Because of that, this client is not here to build a practice through “doing”, like others build companies. And because of that, their path has been long. They’ve held for a long time a lot of negative beliefs, thereby building a lot of momentum for themselves over decades.

Ironically, a lot of things about this client set them up perfectly for the path they’re on, including their old beliefs and belief momentum. In this post I want to focus on how this client is building their business and how that’s happening effortlessly.

The latest indicator of success

When I wrote “effortlessly”, I meant that. It’s taken a while for this client to settle in on this way of growing their practice, but settle in they have. Part of the reason why they’ve settled in comes from trust they have after seeing so many amazing things, other than their practice, manifest effortlessly.

But their most recent manifestation brought this client a “chef’s kiss” experience relative to that coaching practice.

While on vacation with their husband, the client luxuriated on balmy Caribbean beaches. Visiting that part of the world was part of a Law of Attraction Caribbean cruise they booked. Most of that time on vacation put the client in a high-vibration state of mind. The couple enjoys vacations, cruising and Law of Attraction. So the combination offered a lot of positivity.

It’s no wonder then, what happened happened the way it did. During one part of the cruise, the client started up a conversation with a stranger. As it goes during get-to-know-yous, the stranger asked the client “What do you do?”

“I’m a life coach,” they said.

“Really? I could use one of those.” the man replied. Then he shared personal details about his life. People usually share their personal stories with this client.

That’s because – duh – they’re a natural coach! After sharing his personal details, the man had a question:

“How long have you been a life coach?” The man asked.

“All my life,” the client said.

The client found resonance with the vibrational version of themselves; the vibrational version that already is a coach.

Becoming a match NOW

Now, that response my client gave was ground breaking. That’s because they had a belief about being a coach (among other beliefs) that prevented them from becoming one. That belief was, “unless you have paying clients, you’re not a coach.” Another belief holding the client back was: “To be a coach, I must learn something I don’t know.”

Those two beliefs, in the past, would have kept the client from saying what they said. They would have felt like an imposter or a fraud or, worse, a liar.

Not any more though. Together we worked through both of those beliefs, among others. Doing so allowed the client to express themselves AS A COACH, NOW, with no relation to the client’s present reality. Instead, the client found resonance with the vibrational version of themselves; the vibrational version that already is a coach. Doing that, they became a match to a person who would want what they offer. Which is exactly what this guy expressed.

This client has no “training” in being a coach. Nor do I, however. Yet I’m thriving in my practice. How? By allowing my natural leadership and my natural gifts to shine. This client is learning to do the same. As they do that, they become a match to manifestations like what happened on their vacation.

It doesn’t matter if this guy they met becomes a client or not. That wasn’t the point of meet up. The point was it acted as a bread crumb showing the client they’re on the path to becoming fully what they already are.

It works 100 percent of the time

And that’s how everything works in this YCYOR business. The client is becoming more and more of a match to what they want. Meanwhile, the world around them increasingly reflects that back to them, as they soothe beliefs making them not a match.

That process takes some time. That’s why such a thing as “divine timing” exists. It also explains why many who think Law of Attraction doesn’t work fail at making it work. Same with those who believe Law of Attraction works, but doesn’t work for things they really want. It fails to work, or seems to not work on things we really want, because we usually think things we want should come to us on our expected time line.

Usually, divine timing is never synched with our expectations. Divine timing nearly ALWAYS significantly lags behind our expectations as to when something should happen. That’s why it’s so important to cultivate appreciation I call “on the way to”. The lag built into manifestations exists so that we can use that time to true up or calibrate to the desire we hold.

Many, however, get impatient in that gap. When they do that, they widen the gap. The lag gets longer because their impatience makes them not a match.

One value I bring to clients is highlighting this important aspect of manifesting and many other aspects of a practice most people don’t understand.

Manifestation is how the Universe works. It’s 100 percent effective. But we must be 100 percent aligned with how it works to have it work deliberately for us. Want to know more? Consider becoming a client. I’ve created a new, more affordable way to do that. Check out my Cohort sessions here.
