A Law of Attraction skeptic told me once that people who follow Law of Attraction are 30 TIMES more likely to file for bankruptcy. While I don’t put stock in statistics, I understand why so many Law of Attraction followers end up in financial straits. A couple client experiences back my knowing up.
One client lived as though he had more money than he does. Rather than living frugally, he spent from his savings and maxed out his credit cards, expecting his stories about money would turn around in his expected time frame. Not only that, he hadn’t paid attention to how much money was coming in, and how much was going out each month. So he was flying financially blind. Now, he’s struggling a bit because his small income from his artistic performance plus his social security are almost completely consumed by credit card debt payments and basic needs like rent and food.
Another client, who also is an artist, had a similar but different experience. This client creates beautiful, hand-woven items from rags. Inspired by my Broader Perspective, I bought one from her to gift to another client. I knew that client would enjoy the artistic expression. At the time, the artist didn’t have their pricing understood. Nor did they know how much it would cost to ship the thing. I bought the item before the client finished it for what I thought was a reasonable price. The artist finished it, then shipped it. The shipping was almost as much as what she asked me to buy the thing!
Generational beliefs about money
I’m clear about how this YCYOR business works, therefore I am keen on my money flows. So when the artist asked me to cover the high shipping cost, I said I would. But I told them I wouldn’t pay it until after tax season. My taxes this year were more than I expected due to my growing client practice, which, in itself is a surprising and delightful outcome of my Positively Focused practice. I thought I had saved enough for taxes. I miscalculated. So I was in austerity mode to cover the balance. Paying for unexpected, high shipping costs for an art item wasn’t on my priority list.
My decision upset the artist. When we talked about it this week, the client asserted that I was not doing the Positively Focused practice. I should pay them now, they said, and just know the money would show up.
But that’s not how this YCYOR business, the Positively Focused practice nor Law of Attraction works. And this misunderstanding gives credence to the 33X statistic.
Money is one of the most challenging manifestations for many people to become a match to. That’s because so many of us (me included) have old beliefs that run counter us being a match to money. A lot of beliefs. Often, those beliefs are GENERATIONAL. Further, these beliefs come with a lot of momentum. So soothing all that momentum will take a while.
How long will it take?
Don’t be a statistic
That’s the question. The answer is; we can’t know. But we can know that it will happen in delightful and surprising timing, aka “divine timing”, which usually means much longer than most people think or want to believe it will happen. So a person thinking they can just spend money because the universe is going to magically soothe all their resistant beliefs and, in short order, give them more money to spend, that person really doesn’t underhand how any of this spiritual stuff works. Especially around money.
Anyone striving to align their life with how the Universe works, be it through Positively Focused, Seth’s teachings or Law of Attraction must first understand key elements of those practices typically not shared in social media, by influencers or in movies like The Secret. When it comes to money, one of the most important things to do as one lines up with more money is to live within one’s means. Live frugally. Thinking money will come in if we freely spend money makes no sense at all. That’s because there’s a ton of beliefs and momentum each one of us has about money that created the money relationship we have. Those beliefs work counter to that expectation that money is coming.
Money is coming. But it’s going happen in divine timing, which is always longer than we think it’s going to happen. That’s why when what we want does happen, it feels like a surprise and a delight.
And if we don’t soothe that nonsensical belief, the one telling us we can spend freely when we don’t have a lot of money, we’ll end up a statistic.
The reason I think most people are unable or unwilling to create the reality they want is because most of us are too saddled with “what is” or, as one client recently put it “the truth” of our lives. So they don’t know they can create any reality they want.
Make no mistake: Life is FOR REAL. Step into oncoming traffic and you’ll see. So our lives, the “truth” of them, can seem oppressive in their real-ness. Especially if our lives aren’t giving us what we want.
That’s why this You Create Your Own Reality Business (YCYOR) is serious business. It’s not all fun and games. At least not in the beginning.
The legacy of those who came before us
Because most of us, me included before finding out about this YCYOR Business, most of us are living our lives unconsciously creating from thoughts and beliefs that perpetuate the world around us. We work jobs we tolerate, numb ourselves with substances and do our best to make the best of situations we think are “just life”.
Many of those thoughts we inherit from our families. They are so a part of us, we’re oblivious to them. Yet we see them all around us, while not realizing the physical reality we see are our thoughts MADE MANIFEST. Made real.
Once thoughts become real, a lot of momentum exists in them. That means it takes a while for someone who meets this YCYOR Business to build a new momentum behind new thoughts that will create new realities. That delay, therefore, can be hard to move through. Especially if the client comes from really “trauma”-ladened past as many of my clients do.
So it takes a while to move from unsatisfying lives to better ones.
And yet, life is fun and games. We all knew it as that before we chose to come into our life experience. The trick of the Positively Focused practice is to return to that realization then live from that in real time. I applaud my clients because, from a certain perspective, it’s an act of bravery to take on our “what is”, our “truth”, and deliberately create something different. Especially with the “what is” pushing so hard against what we’re wanting, our new reality that gives us so much hope and eagerness.
I appreciate the brave ones willing to take on this practice. Life can be fun and games. But getting there is serious business. It’s not for the feint of heart.
Several people bursted into a fight outside my apartment yesterday morning. It was intense. “Ass” “bitch” and “nigger” flew from mouths with extreme vitriol. A woman was in pain. I didn’t hear the man as much. She took all the airtime and used that to take out all the compassion that probably once existed between them.
The argument sparked as I sat cross-legged in meditation. At first it distracted me. I sat contemplating dreams I had just moments before I awoke. But then I allowed an important, accurate realization; The fact that these furious people existed in my experience meant that what was happening outside my apartment also was happening inside me.
At that moment I stopped contemplating dreams. I gave my full meditative focus to the fight. Not the one out there, but the one in me, the one that had me a match to that experience outside. After all, that experience is in my awareness because something in me has me being a match to that.
Spiritual alchemy
That’s when I recalled a moment, not my best moment, when I was like those people outside my apartment. My ex-wife and I, ironically, had just came from an Abraham seminar. This was near the end of that marriage and we both were raw; not unlike those arguing outside this morning. And, like those folks, my ex and I got into an intense argument, again, not unlike what I witnessed this morning. All in a public space.
Recalling this, I got how I was a match to this fight unfolding outside my apartment. And so, like I did with my client this past week, I allowed myself to rise to an even higher vibration. One not of compassion for those folks, but of clarity that their experience, as awful as it may be for them right now, was a gift of transmutation, of spiritual alchemy, for me.
So I blessed them.
I knew in doing so, my high vibration, somehow, would influence their fight. Sure enough, right at that moment, their fight ended and calm returned outside. As that happened, a deep peace came over me. The same peace I felt when I reflected well-being to that client this week and her allergy symptoms went away.
A Return to Source
I know I am everything in my experience. Everything in my experience is a reflection of what’s inside me. Because of that, I can bring, what some people like to call, healing to the world. But only my inner world, which then gets reflected in the world outside, which is a reflection of the one inside.
Is it really “healing” though? That implies something is broken and that is never the case. What it really is, is personal expansion, a return to dynamic balance with the pure positive energy of All That Is, aided by the external reflection humans want to call physical reality.
I love knowing this. I love my experience this morning that had me come to such clarity. And I know in some small way, I changed the trajectory of those two who were in so much pain.
Last month I hosted an event to help empower people given the times we’re living in.
It was a smash. The event sold out and attendees raved about hoe impactful it was. So much so, one attendee wanted to host another event for her network. We’re therefore having an encore this Saturday, April 5.
We are all powerful creators. So powerful that we even create our own reality. We do that through the thoughts and beliefs we hold on subjects we care about, but subjects we care little about too. And subjects we don’t think about at all.
Our thoughts and beliefs create our experience in a specific way. In this event, I’ll share how that happens. I also give very specific examples showing how it happens. Attendees will also get in on the act as some examples are deliberately designed to trigger within them what it feels like when their beliefs create their reality.
It’s a truly powerful event. So much so, several attendees raved about it even before the event happened. For example, the following screenshot shows a comment made by someone who purchased a ticket for the last event. He was responding to a friend of his on Facebook who was despondent over current events. Read how the responded:
Another example: After attending the last event, a guy wrote me after experiencing the triggering effect of the event:
“I was really impressed by [your event]…More importantly [your premise]… is rather obvious after you explained it the way you did. This made it very easy for me to believe that I too, can and maybe really need to choose new beliefs on which to base my life and create my reality. You have convinced of how important it is that we each, as individuals, take responsibility for that, and do the work necessary to change our mindsets and beliefs into positive, life-affirming ones that will achieve our goals. I am convinced of this. I need to do it…I would like to be able to afford to ask for your help about that. I can’t do that yet, but I am setting it as a matter of importance that I be able to do that within the next few months.”
TL;DR: The author recounts a week of experiences, highlighting the importance of alignment with one’s Broader Perspective. Despite initial plans falling through, the author’s willingness to go with the flow led to a solo trip to the Oregon coast, filled with unexpected joys and breathtaking beauty. This experience serves as a reminder that the Universe delivers what we want, often in unexpected and more satisfying ways.
Yesterday, Thursday, something remarkable happened. Although I’m not that surprised because my alignment to All That Is is producing so many remarkable experiences I find myself barely able to keep up with it all.
What happened Thursday is worth sharing though because it offers so many learning opportunities. Especially for those just beginning, following Law of Attraction, working with the Seth material or other similar practices. What happened also shows how everything we want results from us being aligned. And, that “result” comes as a result of being able to hear; hearing and then immediately following our Broader Perspective guidance.
Let’s dive in.
Soothing destabilization
I’m writing this on Friday, the day after what happened. But the story begins almost exactly one week ago. Last week, I wanted to go to the Oregon coast. I thought it would be a great time to go with a friend of mine. I’ll call her Grace. Grace is pretty spiritually aware. A big aspect of her spiritual orientation is dream work. Her spiritual orientation allows her and I to enjoy our time together.
But Grace also has a past. Like many of us, myself included, she lived her life in contrast: “negative” experiences offering clarity. Clarity she would only realize after the fact. For example, she was part a Christian cult for many years. She met and married her “wasband” in that cult. She also worked many years in a private company I won’t mention that subjected her to a lot of experiences not aligned with who she now knows herself to be.
All that contrast she’s still working through today. From time-to-time a past belief will pop up and destabilize her. Most times, her response to them is admirable. She catches it, soothes herself, then goes on. Sometimes it takes only moments. But sometimes it’s days or weeks.
In the latter instances I won’t hear from her, but I can feel her energy calibrating…
It’s never wrong
So on Tuesday last week I called Grace. I suggested we head to the coast Thursday. She was all in and told me to expect her at my apartment at 10 am Thursday morning.
Thursday morning at 9:30 she texted me. She’d be 20 minutes late, she said. No biggie, I thought, although her being late seems to be developing into a pattern. She arrived 10 minutes earlier than she expected, still 11 minutes late.
When I met her at her car, I could tell something was up. I asked what was happening and tears started flowing down her face. Grace explained that she had a tough morning that involved struggling with technology then wrestling with thoughts and beliefs about always being late, being hard on herself and more. She even worried that I would be mad at her if she arrived late.
I wasn’t mad in that moment. I was more curious. But I did feel some annoyance that she was late.
“Who cares if I get mad?” I asked. “It doesn’t really matter.”
Of course it doesn’t matter. When a person is feeling any emotion, especially negative ones, that emotion has nothing to do with anything happening outside that person. A Positively Focused practice makes this obvious.
But people often take other peoples’ emotional state as indicating they did something wrong. That’s never the case, but we’re all taught at an early age that we can make people feel different things. Again, this is not accurate.
Communication from angels
Eventually it was clear Grace was in no shape to head to the coast. I suggested she head back home and relax instead. I told her I would be totally ok with that. Soothed a bit more, Grace agreed. I got out of her car and she drove off.
I would have enjoyed heading to the coast, but obviously today wasn’t the day. Relaxing myself, I then went back up to my apartment and focused on getting some things done and enjoying my day off. Friday and the weekend came and went.
Tuesday the following week, I wanted to go on a run. The weather wasn’t cooperating though. It started raining although the forecast showed it wouldn’t rain until five hours later. I felt frustrated about that. In that moment I saw 1313 on my phone. I keep my phone on military time, so “1313” is the same as 1:13 p.m. The military time version however is what’s called an “Angel Number” in New Age Circles.
According to experts, 1313 often appears during moments of change, challenge, or shifting emotions, offering reassurance and guidance to help us navigate these experiences with grace. So I knew this Angel Number signified my frustration and an opportunity to navigate that feeling into a better-feeling one. I did so, and shortly after, received the number 1331 on my phone which also is an Angel Number.
1331 is the mirror of 1313. 1331 emphasizes growth through challenges and creatively navigating disruptions. It encourages forward momentum and trust in the process. It also reflects harmony between the inner self and outer circumstances. Seeing 1331 after seeing 1313 indicates a shift into alignment.
I did feel better. But what happened later in the week I know happened because of this inner shift I made.
Going with the flow
Every morning I typically meditate at least once for an hour. Usually I meditate twice, once in the very early morning and again after waking up for the day. On Thursday, none of that happened. I slept through the night Wednesday night. When I woke Thursday, my Broader Perspective spoke to me as clear as someone right next to me.
They said “Go to the Oregon coast today.”
Of course when my Broader Perspective tells me to do something, I usually snap to it. This was no different. It would require renting a car because I don’t have one. I checked the weather and…holy smokes…it was going to be perfect all day. Sunny skies and 55 degrees, both in the city and out on the Oregon coast!
I Googled “rental cars” and got a booking website. The first offering for the date and time I selected was for a Fiat sports car for only $36 a day! What a deal! I checked the details and booked the car. Arriving at the rental center, a friendly counter agent greeted me. I asked if I would get that Fiat and he said no, those cars are reserved at the airport only.
I was slightly disappointed, but remembered the message inherent in 1313. This was an adventure and I was going to go with the flow of it!
Instead of a Fiat, I got a Chevy Malibu, which was actually a comfortable car. What I liked most about it was Apple CarPlay which allowed me to play my music through the car’s excellent speakers.
But the best part was the cost: less than $100 for a 2-day car rental! Insurance included!
A spectacular adventure
My drive to the coast was nothing short of spectacular. Having no responsibility and no job, I took my time, stopping at places and stretching, admiring the views, basically enjoying the whole trip. It was nice traveling the speed limit rather than trying to rush to the destination. I had no destination after all. It was a pure, joyful, solitary adventure.
I planned to head to Cannon Beach or Manzanita, two of my favorite Oregon coast spots. But my Broader Perspective had other plans. After heading through Astoria and admiring that coastal city, my Broader Perspective encouraged me to explore someplace I hadn’t before: a small hamlet called Gearhart.
O.M.G.
Gearhart featured a near-deserted beach stretching at least 10 miles! It was totally flat, the tide was out, and the only others out there besides me were clam hunters. What’s more, the temperature was near 60 degrees! That’s unheard of in December. Usually also in winter the winds pick up on the beach. Not today. The winds barely blew. So I was toasty as I walked up and down the beach for about four hours.
As the sun began setting I got ready to head back to the Malibu. But again, my Broader Perspective had other plans. It encouraged me to wait and enjoy the sunset. There was still an hour before the sun would go down so I grabbed a spot on a really beautiful weatherworn bench and read from my reading device. Then, as the sun set, the sky included a dappling of clouds that arrived in perfect timing.
The glorious sunset at Gearhart, Oregon.
Delivering what we want
As the sun went down it played with earth’s atmosphere to create what I swear was an oil painting in the sky. It was absolutely gorgeous. And, as the sun set I felt warm, magical and blessed as I marveled at how, just a week ago I wanted to visit the beach. And here I was, me and my Broader Perspective, witnessing and appreciating and reveling in an age-old pursuit: enjoying the sun setting.
What great guidance! It was one of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen. After the sun went down, I walked back to the Malibu, then enjoyed a peaceful, easy drive back to my apartment. Of course, I got perfect parking, then reveled in my home.
I reveled in how I held no resistance to not being able to go to the beach last week. In doing so, I lined up with my Broader Perspective which must have known that going on my own would be much more thrilling, much more satisfying.
It sure was! And the weather was perfect, which was not the case last week. Last week was grey and cold.
And this is the thing with All That Is. It delivers what we want. Every time. But sometimes, it delivers things in ways we can’t expect. And if we’re open to it, that unexpected way can be more satisfying than the way we want it to happen.
Often the way we want it to happen includes it happening on the schedule we expect. But if we are willing to go with the flow instead, give up thinking we know the best time for something to happen, or the best way it’s supposed to happen, we’ll be more than pleasantly surprised.
We’ll be thrilled.
Speaking of going with the flow, you’re invited to a 90-minute online event on March 1 at 10 a.m. Pacific Time called Belief Constellations: Politics, Relationships And Our MAGNIFICENT Future. I’ll give a deep dive into what Belief Constellations are and how to use them to align with the fabulous future on the horizon. It’s only $15. Grab a spot, or, if you’re a MeetUp member, go here.
TL;DR: The author emphasizes how beliefs shape our financial reality, using a client’s experience to illustrate how limiting thoughts block opportunities. It argues that aligning beliefs with desires is key to success, revealing that poverty results from mindset, not external forces. Through self-awareness and belief alignment, wealth and fulfillment become achievable.
I wouldn’t say or share any of what you’re about to read to a poor person. They’re just not ready to hear it. What they’ll hear is me blaming them. But this isn’t about blame, it’s about empowerment…
A client’s experiences showed me this week how powerful this You Create Your Own Reality (YCYOR) business is. Our thoughts and beliefs are so powerful, they not only create experiences we call daily life, they also block us from experiencing daily lives containing things we want.
This includes wealth. Indeed, most people, if they’re honest, will say they’d love having more money than they have, no matter how much they do have. If they don’t want more, it’s usually because beliefs existing inside them block that natural desire. Wanting more is the essence of of All That Is. It’s what makes “eternity” possible.
That’s another story though.
In this story, I want to share how our beliefs create realities that literally keep things we want from coming to us, including money. I’m going to show how this works through a recent experience a client had with the Positively Focused practice. His experience, even though he’s far from poor, proves the point I’m making: That poor people stay poor through the beliefs they hold. By “poor” I include those in the middle class who struggle to make ends meet, as well as those below the poverty line.
So let’s get into this. I’m sure we’re going to find what I’m about to share…interesting at the very least.
Trump: Good? Bad?
I’ll call my client “John”. I know, it’s not very creative.
John’s been a client about 50 weeks. He became a client after watching his partner transform for the better right before his eyes. Her example was so positive, he said, he wanted some of what she was getting.
John is successful as a software developer. He’s also quite astute at finance. An ardent progressive, he voted for Harris. So when Trump won the election, John expressed rather strong disappointment, but, because of the Positively Focused practice, he didn’t let that go very far, which left him open for an amazing experience coming.
Fast forward to December. By that point last year, something happened that shocked many observers. The cryptocurrency Bitcoin reached well over $100,000 a token. Historically, past presidential administrations were critical of crypto markets in general and Bitcoin specifically. Indeed, many expected that if Harris won the election, her administration would follow with the Biden Administration’s sharp criticism of crypto.
Not so with Trump. He promised in his later campaign speeches to become the most favorable cryptocurrency president.
The future: Crypto?
Trump won, of course. And crypto advocates, who had funded many successful 2024 political campaigns, including Trump’s, felt jubilant. So did much of the business world.
Cryptocurrency is a huge world-transforming technology. Like Artificial Intelligence, the Internet and computer technology before it, crypto is literally changing every facet of life right under our noses. Unlike previous inventions, however, crypto is poised to fundamentally disrupt society in so many beneficial ways, it’s hard to wrap one’s head around them all.
That potential also offers tremendous wealth-making opportunities. Unlike past opportunities, which made themselves mostly available to the already-wealthy, the movement crypto represents brings those wealth-making opportunities to everyone. Anyone can potentially become richer than they ever have been before. Indeed, many already have. And those people started out not rich at all.
That said, those potential riches are only available to people aligned with the opportunity. That’s where John and thoughts and beliefs come back into this story.
Chicken? Or egg?
Everyone creates their reality through thoughts and beliefs they hold. Those thoughts and beliefs literally filter our lives. They only allow events into our lives that are aligned with them. So if a person holds a belief that, for example, “money is hard to come by”, they cannot see opportunities where money is easy to come by.
Same holds for those who believe crypto is a scam. Such people will not be able to see money-making opportunities available through crypto. I should know: I was once one of those people!
Not any more.
Thoughts and beliefs don’t even have to be about crypto to block these opportunities. Beliefs about ourselves can block them too. If we believe, for example, that “I can’t get ahead”, that thought will keep creating experiences where we, literally, can’t get ahead.
But we must ask whether this is a chicken-or-egg situation: Did those experiences happen first, and then we concluded that “I can’t get ahead”? Or did somehow we come up with that self concept, of a person who can’t get ahead, then experienced experiences as evidence of that concept?
The answer is, it can be both. People can hold a thought, then experience a life matching that. Or something can happen, then they draw a conclusion from that and thus create resonance in them that has them keep having that experience.
Empowering? Or disempowering?
In John’s case, he saw his parents struggle. He related how he noticed his family frequently on the edge of financial insolvency. He wore hand-me-down clothes in school and was enrolled in his school’s free lunch program. John joked with all seriousness about how being on the free lunch program affected him by saying “Why do free lunch program tickets need to be a different color from regular tickets?”
Can you see how such an observation reveals the strong negative experience John had?
John made up stories about those happenings, especially stories about himself. He wasn’t going to end up like his parents. So he took a more guarded, preventative perspective on money. One of his beliefs, for example, is “Building a bank account is hard. It takes a long time. I don’t want to make the wrong choice.”
As a result of this belief, John has become extremely financially successful. He’s managed his money very closely. His work income is, in his words, “ridiculous” in its generosity. And yet, as empowering as his beliefs are, they still limit what’s possible for him. I’ll explain how in a bit.
A vicious cycle
We can see how beliefs in a world not in our control would compel us into social liberalism. If one finds it hard to get ahead, or that situations are out of our control, we’ll will see others having similar troubles. Not knowing about the Positively Focused approach, we’ll want to place blame on something outside ourselves.
We won’t know the trouble source is our thoughts and beliefs. So we’ll look to the world around us for the origin of our struggles.
It’s a kind of vicious cycle: thoughts and beliefs filter in events matching them and filter out those not matching them, which reinforce thoughts and beliefs. If one doesn’t know this, a person will look for the source of the problem outside themselves and blame that. Little do they know placing blame is a reflection of their inner beliefs: the belief that something outside them is to blame, that and the belief creating whatever problems they’re having in the first place.
The reflection happens so the person can do something about the beliefs not aligned with what the person wants. When they do that, they get what they want. It’s that simple. Blaming just prolongs problems or it creates new ones.
This is the vicious cycle social liberals find themselves in. Social conservatives do the same thing, by the way. They blame their problems on a society run amok, away from conservative values. In other words, something outside themselves. Liberals and conservatives have far more in common than both sides realize.
John’s beliefs are what has him being both socially and fiscally liberal. In the next section I’ll flesh this out a little more.
The Universe faithfully reflects
John believing, among other things, that making and keeping money is hard and takes a long time, and you can’t make a mistake, is part of why he is socially and fiscally liberal. He believes people need help because life is hard. Especially the part of life that is about making money. After all, he saw his parents struggle. For John, this belief isn’t a belief. It’s “true”.
John also knows there are many people out there trying to get other people’s money, often in unscrupulous ways. So not only is he on guard about that himself, he’s also wary of people falling victim to such schemes. This partly explains why he believes people need help, i.e. a society socially oriented towards taking care of people.
Now, people do need a hand out or a hand up from time to time. Virtually everyone, myself included at one point, knows nothing about how the Universe works. Because of that lack of knowledge, people think thoughts, hold beliefs, make decisions and take action based on those that aren’t in their best interest.
Of course, the Universe faithfully reflects all that back to people in the form of life matching what’s going on in us. But people don’t know that’s happening. So most people point the finger at the world around them. Even though the world around them is a product of their thoughts, beliefs and actions.
John is learning this. And what he’s finding is making a huge difference.
Trump’s contribution to the better world
John sees Trump as somewhat inept and susceptible to others’ influence. As a result, throughout the election campaign, John as an ardent Positively Focused practitioner, strives to find the best-feeling story about the election outcome.
In doin that, John made himself available to the reality that the Trump administration is going to play a huge part in a wonderful unfolding. An unfolding offering everyone massive opportunities to prosper in a future that’s literally unbelievable.
That future also supports the ascension New Age spiritualists reverently expect. All this is coming aided by an administration many “spiritualist” Americans vehemently disavow.
How can this be?
Trump and those he is appointing likely have no idea how their actions in the future play into the hands of this unfolding. That’s because, of course, their thoughts and beliefs aren’t focused there. They’re focused on their political agenda, which primarily is about delivering on their campaign promises. That and keeping people’s attention and thus their future votes and money.
But what they don’t know is many of those promises are going to support the unfolding I mentioned above. And one aspect facilitating that unfolding is…wait for it: cryptocurrency.
A new future lies ahead
I’ll avoid going in depth on other technologies emerging which also further this unfolding. I want to keep this post rather short and it’s already long. But I will mention some of them. I’ll mention them because the information is important to understand points I’m making in this post. You can research them further if you choose.
Cryptocurrencies underpin the emerging next generation of the Internet, also called “Web3”. But “Cryptocurrency” distracts the public. It’s not so much their function as currencies that matters. It’s the projects these currencies underwrite and support that matter. In the way software and microprocessors ushered in the computer age, these “currencies” and their projects are introducing Web3. Web3 is a decentralized, open, more secure and more peer-to-peer internet.
But these projects are also fostering, among many other things, Artificial Intelligence (AI), AI agents, which basically are personal servants that act on the internet on our behalf; new ways to conduct financial transactions and contracts without banks, lawyers or the government; and making wealth far more accessible to ordinary people.
We’re exactly at the point where we were when computers or the internet first started: the world is being transformed once again. Only this time much faster and from far more directions than before.
And those who are aware of these opportunities and take action, just like in the past with computers and the internet, are going to get rich. But those who aren’t aware of them will miss the opportunities.
What separates those who are aware from those who aren’t? Individual beliefs. That’s all.
“A no-brainer”
One session late last year, I talked with John about everything you just read in the previous section. The conversation revolved mostly around Bitcoin and its meteoric rise. But that focus kicked off a conversation about everything else happening in the crypto space. Because of John’s old beliefs, he was skeptical. He told me he always viewed Bitcoin as a “grift”.
“They call them cryptocurrencies, but you can’t buy anything with them,” he quipped.
By the end of the session, however, he saw how that belief blocked him from really understanding what is happening and what’s coming. That opening, his ability to see anew, triggered something good in him.
After our session, he sent me a text message:
In our next session, John floored me with his news. We first talked about how surprised he was that he didn’t look into this sooner.
“After I took a deep look at it,” he said. “It was a no brainer.”
And this is the thing about old beliefs. When they’re soothed, suddenly, the new view one has of the world just feels like an “of course”. That’s because the world constantly offers broader perspectives from which to view it. And when a person steps into that, they literally walk into a new reality. One that now matches their fresh, new perspective.
Missing an opportunity
So profound was John’s shift, even he was surprised. He told me the next morning he put $50K into Bitcoin. But his Broader Perspective encouraged he put more in. So he put in $100K more. But his Broader Perspective encouraged putting in even more. So he put in another $50! All after one conversation!
Again, this is what happens when one lets go of resistant beliefs. And, the minute one does, one also must contend with the new set of contrast that accompanies the new beliefs. In John’s case that was feeling regretful that he didn’t take this action six months ago when Bitcoin’s price was much lower.
“I should have done this last summer,” He argued mournfully. I told him there’s nothing he can do about that other than soothe his regret. But the solace he could take from the experience is realizing how powerful beliefs are.
“They literally block us from seeing opportunities,” I told him. Of course, John could see that now.
There was no way John could have done anything different from what he did last summer. So there’s no point mourning that non-action, even though had he put $200,000 into Bitcoin last summer at $87K a coin, he would have already seen a nice increase in value.
We do it to ourselves
John’s experience shows how powerful beliefs are. I’ve written this many times in this post, but it bears repeating: Beliefs create our reality. They only allow in that which accords with them. Everything else they block.
It’s important therefore that we become more deliberate about what beliefs we have, isn’t it?
I know it is important, which is why I work with clients.
No one blocks us from anything we want. Only we do that by not examining beliefs that block those things we want from coming into our experience.
And this is how the poor remain poor. No one is keeping them poor! They are doing that to themselves. Of course, they’re not doing it deliberately. They don’t understand what they’re doing. The problem with that lack of understanding is, along with their disempowering beliefs, if someone like me tries to tell them what they’re doing (or not doing), their current beliefs will not allow them to hear what I’m saying.
Or they’ll hear it and think I’m trying to fraud them. They’ll think I’m just spouting new-age nonsense, in the same way John thought cryptocurrency was a grift. And when they think that way, they just amplify their existing Belief Constellations, further blinding them from opportunities to rise from poverty.
Beliefs are powerful
At the beginning of this post I wrote that I’m not blaming anyone. This isn’t about blame. John isn’t to blame for beliefs blocking opportunities. No one else holds those beliefs for him though. He’s doing that.
Does that make him to blame for that? Is it his “fault”?
You could look at it that way, but I don’t. I look at it more positively. This whole post is not about blaming the poor or blaming John. What it is about is using his example and the example of poor people to empower those reading this. For now you know, dear reader, that you possess an extraordinarily empowering tool: your beliefs.
And if you cultivate beliefs consistent with what you want, in a very short time, the world will reveal to you exactly that and only that. For when you align your beliefs with what you want, they, like all beliefs, block everything not aligned with them.
That’s why I can say, for example, that when a person aligns their beliefs, nothing can come in contrary to what they believe.
Beliefs are powerful.
The poor stay poor by virtue of the poverty in their beliefs. People get rich by virtue of the wealth inherent in their beliefs. Your world is your word, meaning how you think about the world shapes your experience of it.
Speaking of beliefs, you’re invited to a 90-minute online event on March 1 at 10 a.m. Pacific Time called Belief Constellations: Politics, Relationships And Our MAGNIFICENT Future. I’ll give a deep dive into what Belief Constellations are and how to use them to align with the fabulous future on the horizon. It’s only $15. Grab a spot, or, if you’re a MeetUp member, go here.
An amazing process is happening. It started long, long ago, but it’s really picking up steam in 2025.
Results of this process will astound virtually everyone. Indeed, it is astounding even people directly involved in it almost every week.
You and I will benefit tremendously from results of this process. In fact, many already are benefitting. They’re becoming more prosperous. Many are extremely excited about what they see happening. Many more are engaging with the process and feeling extreme excitement about the future.
And that’s the thing: anyone who gets involved, in their own unique way, will feel the same extreme excitement and empowerment that everyone else involved does.
But getting involved requires giving up what we think is happening. It also requires giving up what a lot of people are saying is happening. Only then can we see the wonder surrounding us. It’s happening right alongside all the terrible, crazy things people are focused on. But to see the good stuff, we must turn away from the bad stuff.
When we change our beliefs, then we’ll see how fantastic what is happening is. Abraham makes this so plain:
The very best of our world
The very best of our world is here for everyone. As I wrote above, many already have found it. We can too. I already have, which is why I’m urging you to find it too. And finding it easy.
Well it kinda is easy. Because it requires giving up being right.
Famous Astrophysicist and celebrity Neil deGrasse Tyson said something that’s become immortalized. It highlights the point I’m making in this post:
“One of the great challenges in life,” he says. “Is knowing enough about a subject to think that you’re right. But NOT knowing enough about the subject to know that you’re wrong.”
A lot of people are unwilling to “know enough to know that [they’re] wrong.” The trouble is, if they were willing, they would come into a fantastic world. One where everything they want is theirs.
If you think you’re ready to “know”, and you don’t already. I invite you to this online event on March 1. In it I describe the wonderful results flowing from what’s happening. Join me and you may find the world, and your life, is far, far better than you think it is. Only five spots remain.
Seriously. Everyone is going to thrive as a result of Trump being in office. And I’m writing that as someone who voted for Harris!
Especially progressives CAN THRIVE even if we think America is being ruined. But to do so, we must stop giving away our power to FEAR. Fear and Elon Musk Derangement Syndrome.
A LOT of really great things are going to happen…ARE happening…with Trump in office. Not because of Trump being there, but because of what has happened since he moved in. Really, the entire world is going to be freer, more prosperous, more open, more diverse…and the environment is going to get better too.
Can’t see how all that’s going to happen? You might consider coming to this event where I detail it all. It’s only $15. March 1. Details in the link.
TL;DR: Elon Musk’s awkward gesture at a rally sparked controversy, with some interpreting it as a Nazi salute. This event serves as a case study in how beliefs shape reality, with people’s interpretations influenced by their preconceived notions and emotional states. By understanding this phenomenon, individuals can align their focus with their desires and create a more empowered future, free from the limitations of fear-based beliefs.
Elon Musk is keeping the body politic guessing. He’s keeping others enraged and some others gleeful. People, generally, are going nuts about his latest gesture. Indeed, with Trump coming back into office, a lot of people are feeling really, really insecure. Meanwhile, the media are making advertising bank stoking fires of that insecurity.
Indeed, there’s no better time than now to see how powerful beliefs create reality. In seeing how powerful they’re playing out in current events, we as individuals can benefit from those examples. We can learn a thing or two, in other words.
How?
By using current events, which are reflections of our collective inner state, as tuning devices, thereby increasing our alignment to what it is we want. Doing that, we can actually become happier. Even while others are in emotional upheaval and with not a thing changing around us.
Let’s use what Elon Musk did last week as an example. Then let’s amplify our clarity and discover how a Nazi salute that was, wasn’t, then was again.
First a disclaimer and trigger warning
This post contains potentially offensive content. Whether you experience it that way depends on your beliefs. If you’re Jewish or progressive and sensitive about the long history of fascism in the world, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU STOP READING RIGHT NOW.
SERIOUSLY, NAVIGATE AWAY FROM THIS PAGE. If you continue reading, and you make disparaging comments in the comment section, you are, for sure, going to be blocked because you can not control yourself. And this work, this Positively Focused practice, requires an extraordinary measure of self control.
Second disclaimer: I don’t have a dog in the fight that is US politics. It doesn’t matter what happens in politics to me because I’m the creator of my reality, not politicians. So while I’m diving into this political moment, the moment itself, and politics in general, are of little interest to me other than as learning experiences.
So I’m totally indifferent about what Elon Musk did. Ironically, because of that, I enjoy a broad perspective from which to understand what happened. What happened and why it happened. So, with the disclaimer down, let’s dive in.
So what happened?
At a rally following the Trump inauguration, Elon Musk took the stage. With great emotion, he expressed how important the past election was. Then he profusely thanked the audience for what he believes was doing the right thing: electing Trump. His thanks took the form of saying “I give my heart to you!”
Either right as or shortly after saying those words, he made a somewhat awkward gesture. With his right hand, he thumped his chest over his heart, then threw his hand outward, extending his right arm completely straight and upward. Immediately after, parts of the world went apoplectic.
The Southern Poverty Law Center said the gesture set off a “firestorm of controversy.” Meanwhile many US Politicians heavily criticized Musk for giving what they described as a “Nazi salute”. Also, according to the Associated Press, many right wing groups embraced the gesture, interpreting it similarly. Austria and Germany both called for banning Musk. And, of course, social media is equally ablaze with apoplectic opinions about Musk’s act.
Musk himself basically responded by saying “guys, give it a break.”
When a client sent me a cartoon depicting the act, it intrigued me. That’s because, as I wrote above in my disclaimer, I’m indifferent to politics. But I had a sense this event might offer a window into how people’s beliefs literally run them. That’s why I took interest.
What I found interesting was, the more I dove into this affair, the more empowered I became about what I know.
Momentum and Nazis
The first thing I did was go watch the original footage. Watching it perplexed me. I know what a Nazi salute looks like and what Musk did was not that. It didn’t surprise me that the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an antisemitism watchdog group, agreed. Referring to the gesture, the group said Musk didn’t make a Nazi salute. Rather he “made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm”.
That’s what I saw.
It’s widely known that Musk is on the spectrum. He’s an awkward person. And he often appears uncomfortable in ordinary situations. Being on stage isn’t “ordinary” and I’m sure, for Musk, emotional expressions aren’t either. So what I saw in the gesture was an awkward guy expressing deep relief and thanking his audience in an equally awkward way.
That’s all.
But it doesn’t surprise me that people, especially politicians, went crazy over all this. Think about it. The left has been building up a lot of fear about Trump returning to the White House. Left-leaning, biased media has been doing the same. Individual progressives did the same thing too. Through social media they’ve enrolled a lot of people into the momentum of their trepidation. Their disgust with Trump includes expectations that his authoritarian speech defines the new president as a fascist. Maybe even a Nazi.
Consider all this focus has been underway since Trump’s last term. When a person focuses on something for a long time, that focus creates momentum. Get enough of that going and it will keep going on its own. Before long, that momentum will turn into physical reality. That reality will then prove “true” thoughts and beliefs that person focused on. Then the thoughts and beliefs will no longer be thoughts and beliefs. They’ll be the “Truth”.
Willing stooges
When that happens, hardly anything will change that person’s mind about what they believe. What’s more, that person will see everything through the lens of that truth.
So when Musk joined Trump during election season, everyone thinking Trump was a fascist lumped Musk in to that category. As Trump continued with his authoritarian speech, people’s truths were further confirmed. When Trump won, the emotional upheaval among liberals caused those same people to double down on their truths. Truths mainly based on fear-filled future expectations.
When Musk then got on stage and made his awkward gesture, of course liberals, many Jews, Holocaust rememberers, and more would interpret that gesture through their collective memory.
The problem is, a rich and well-documented history supports exactly what a Nazi salute is and what it isn’t. And Musk’s gesture fails the test of history. Furthermore, if some people had an ounce of self-control and reasoning capability they would have seen the difference between Musk’s gesture and a Nazi salute.
Instead, many people live their lives through their emotions. That’s not a good thing. Because when a person lives their lives through emotions, they give a lot of their power away. In other words, they become willing stooges for manipulators. And that’s what we’re seeing with the large number of biased media outlets.
Those outlets make a LOT of money off out-of-control people living through their emotions by triggering those people and keeping their attention on everything going wrong. It doesn’t matter if it’s ACAB, BLM or MAGA.
Here’s the thing: You don’t have to be one of those people!
Your next four years…
If you allow yourself to become one of those people, however, woe unto you. You’re limiting your future.
Allow yourself the empowerment that’s naturally yours, however, and you make your future unlimited. Indeed, the only limits an empowered person puts on the future are those limits which shape a future of their desires, thereby leaving everything else out.
In other words, an empowered person limits their now to include only those things that match what they want to see in the future. By “now” I’m including thoughts and beliefs they think, as well as things they share with others, whether through social media, or through their speech.
We can’t help but limit our future. That’s because our focus, the ability to put our attention in certain places, is only so broad. So whenever we focus, by definition, we’re placing limits. And when we do that, we allow into our experience only those things matching our focus.
That’s why those thinking Trump is a fascist and so is Musk saw only what they saw: a Nazi salute. But it wasn’t a Nazi salute, unless you think it was.
And if you do, well, you’re in for a very uncomfortable four years.
Meanwhile, for others, the next four years are going to be positively astounding. Want to know how? Consider joining this event I’ve planned for March. Have a MeetUp account? Go here.
TL;DR: The author recounts an experience of astral travel wherein their consciousness flowed into the consciousness of another, and that other person realized then reported on her experience of what happened, thus confirming the author’s experience.
An awesome confirmation of my Astral Travel aspirations happened this week. It’s evidence of my moving into more expansive capabilities, capabilities I’ve intended for some time now.
It’s taking a while because, as I’ve mentioned many times before, we don’t instantly get what we want. Especially when it comes to what we believe are supernatural or “unbelievable” abilities. That’s because those very beliefs, that it’s impossible, supernatural, unnatural, or unbelievable, resists our ability to allow these abilities into our experience.
So some time must pass while we learn to soothe those beliefs and replace them with beliefs more aligned to our desire. The same holds true for any desire. Whether it be a better job, a partner, a bunch of money or a better life condition, we must become a match to it before we receive it.
And the main thing keeping us from becoming a match to what we want are our existing beliefs that run contrary to what we want.
I’ve been focusing into my experience these “occult” experiences for about a year now, I think. That’s not very long considering what I’m wanting, the results I’m producing and how many people believe such results aren’t possible.
Let’s take a look at what happened this week, how it happened and the confirmation I received from my client.
The experience
It was a Tuesday morning. Typically, every morning I meditate for at least an hour prior to my day getting underway. This morning, as sometimes happens, I meditated twice. Once in the early morning for about 90 minutes, then again after waking, for another hour.
Both these meditation periods were deep and intense. I’ve described sensations happening now in meditation in previous posts. Those sensations confirm my budding shape-shifting abilities, but they also confirm that my consciousness leaves my body too.
During the second half hour of that second meditation period, my consciousness left my body. I felt myself “go out”. The experience happened so briefly, I couldn’t get my wits about the experience. I only know I was “gone”, then I was back in. What I did experience was seeing a vague sense of the surroundings where I landed. But I couldn’t make out more than that vague sense.
This meditation happened about an hour before my first client session. That session started at 9 a.m. The client I see lives in Hawaii. Hawaii is two hours behind my time zone. So 8 am is 6 am in Hawaii. My client would be just waking up. That time differential set up everything that happened next.
Surprise and delight
Since many of these kinds of experiences have happened, I reveled in this one, but didn’t make much more about it. That’s because other similar past experiences were much clearer, more vivid and longer lasting than this one. Usually, I’ll experience several smaller, rather insignificant sensations or departures in between the really profound ones. So this experience, given its brevity and vague perception, I figured was one of the less meaningful ones.
I was wrong.
And that’s great because part of the joy of life is the surprise and delight inherent in it. We can’t know how the Universe will set up situations in which we get what we want. The Universe is far more resourceful, and broader in its abilities than our minds can fathom. Which is why it truly is unfathomable. So when we do manifest something, it usually comes in a surprising and delightful way.
That way makes sense too because when we least expect something to manifest, we are best prepared to receive it. That’s because we aren’t resisting its showing up. We’re not resisting it with thinking we’re thinking about it when in fact we’re thinking about not having it. We’re not yearning for it to happen. Because our minds are off what we want, we unconsciously allow the unfolding.
That’s what happened here.
The confirmation
After meditating that morning, I went through my normal day preparations. Then I signed on to the call with my client. The moment I did, the client shocked me with a question:
“Did you visit me this morning?” She asked.
Her question piqued my interest. And since I know what I know, I knew something was afoot here. Something we both would enjoy. There was no confusion about what she was asking. Instead I felt only curiosity.
“Why do you ask?” I said.
The client then described how she was in her bed and suddenly, she felt my presence. My curiosity spiked then and I asked her when she had this sensation.
“About an hour ago,” she said. That would have been around 6 am her time. Right about the same time I had the departure experience in meditation.
I then went from curious to excited. For the next few minutes we talked about what happened as a way of amplifying for both of us the real-ization of this experience. The fact that what happened with her matched what happened with me, at the same time, delighted both of us.
We then went on with the rest of the session.
Having affinity and no doubt
Two days later, and I have no idea why she did this, the client sent me a text message. Even though I don’t know what prompted her act, when I read the message, I knew it was further confirmation of what happened. It also represented a natural unfolding that lead directly to this post. Had she not sent this text, I probably wouldn’t have written this story. But receiving it delighted me so much. Her message, to me, came out of the blue. So I knew my client’s Broader Perspective encouraged her to reach out.
Here’s what she texted:
Look at that message!
It’s so detailed. And it describes a specific process wherein this happened. Notice it wasn’t something that happened against her will. I was “announced” and then she allowed “me” to “slide over [her] energy”.
I wondered if others could confirm such experiences. It’s one thing to have the person leaving their body talk about the experience. But when another can confirm the experience from their perspective, that takes it to a whole other level!
Of course, my client couldn’t have had this experience had she not some affinity with the ability. I perceived the client’s vast potential for such abilities. In one of our early sessions, I wondered if she had witchcraft in her ancestry. She mused about my question, but recently asked me about why I asked.
I told her I sense great affinity within her and very little doubt. So she’s susceptible to these experiences.
Everything is possible
And that’s the key right? Our beliefs create our reality. Anything is possible. But our beliefs mitigate that accurate statement. If we want to experience something and we doubt it can happen, it’s not going to happen.
And yet, all kinds of accounts exist where, just as an example, a mother in a car accident lifts her car off her child who is pinned underneath. That kind of event can happen in such crises because, in that moment, the woman’s desire for saving her child overwhelms any doubt. Indeed, doubt isn’t even present when she takes action.
The same holds true for anything. Whatever we want, we can experience or have. It all depends on how much doubt we bring to the table. The more we bring, the less possible our desires become.
Which is why a Positively Focused perspective is the best perspective. For not only does everything become possible, we also create all the evidence we need to confirm what was once impossible now no longer is.
Postscript:
I once thought it impossible that the world would get better if Trump won. Well some really amazing things are happening right now, even with Trump becoming president. Indeed, because he became president…and I voted for Harristhe future is going to be magnificent. How do I know? Consider joining this event I’ve planned for March. Have a MeetUp account? Go here.
