How to Make the World Respond with Abundance Just for You

TL;DR: The author revisits a vivid, real-world manifestation—finding $40 on a walk—and as a followup explores how we each create our own separate vibrational reality, even when walking side by side with others. A practical spiritual reminder.

Yesterday, something delightful happened that keeps revealing deeper truths. If you read my previous post, you know about the $40 that appeared at the perfect time—two crisp $20 bills lying on the pavement in plain sight, discovered on an evening walk with a friend.

That story alone is a testament to how intimately the Universe responds to our vibration. I had just soothed old scarcity stories that surfaced after conversations with clients—one heading into surgery, the other going on vacation—and I’d aligned with abundance. I had a desire: to get some cash for berry picking at a local farm, without paying an ATM fee. And within hours, the Universe delivered.

But what happened next was even more powerful.

Same Walk, Different Worlds

The friend I walked with—Raziah—was right beside me when that money manifestation happened. She was actually closer to the cash than I was. I had to step behind her to pick it up. It was sitting there, in plain view. And yet, she didn’t see it.

She wouldn’t have even known it was there if I hadn’t said, “Hold up, I need a moment.” When I turned around and showed her the bills, she was surprised. Not just because of the money, but because of how obvious it was. That had me wonder: how many others had walked by without noticing it?

That’s when it hit me—this experience wasn’t our manifestation. It was mine. It had nothing to do with her. She was present for it, yes. But it wasn’t part of her vibrational trajectory. It was mine alone.

The Universe placed that money in my path. Not metaphorically. Literally. That’s why she didn’t see the money until I showed it to her.

Everyone Lives in Their Own Reality

This is one of the most beautiful paradoxes of physical reality: even when we share time and space with others—on a walk, in a conversation, even in intimate relationships—we are each living entirely separate vibrational realities.

Raziah didn’t see the money because it wasn’t for her. It didn’t exist in her field of awareness until I brought it into view. Until that moment, those bills might as well have been invisible in her world. And that’s not some woo-woo metaphor. That’s real. That’s physics—vibrational physics.

Our individual reality can contain anything we imagine.

It’s also what so many of my clients wrestle with in the early stages of the Positively Focused practice. They understand, conceptually, that they create their reality. But then they look around and see things they don’t like—war, politics, economic uncertainty—and they think: “How can this be my creation?” The answer is always: “You tuned to it.”

And if they keep tuning to it, life obliges. Just like it did for me when I was immersed in outrage culture a decade ago. Like it did for my friend Mark, who sees only a Portland full of decay and danger. Just like it did for me, briefly, when I dipped into his vibrational lens and momentarily forgot the future I’ve already aligned with.

Your World = Your Signal

What happened with the $40 was a masterclass reminder: no one else is in our reality but each of us. That doesn’t mean other people don’t exist. It means our version of them, our version of reality, is a vibrational echo of our own signal.

So many people struggle with this because they think manifestation has to be huge, dramatic, and public to count. But often, the most personal, powerful manifestations are quiet. Subtle. Hidden in plain sight—until we tune to them.

That’s why I love the Positively Focused path. It doesn’t promise fireworks (though those come too). It promises alignment. Clarity. And experiences that feel magical… because they are. They’re vibrational magic made real.

We don’t need others to validate our reality. Nor do we need proof in the form of mass agreement that the manifestation happened. We just need to tune our signal. Then, the Universe meets us there—with money on the pavement, a berry-picking trip paid for in advance, and a reminder that we are always supported.

How to Make Money Appear Without Lifting a Finger

TL;DR: The author shares a vivid real-life example of how alignment, trust, and vibrational integration led to a surprise cash manifestation—confirming that the Universe always responds, often with ease and delightful abundance.

Some stories are too perfect not to share. This one is a powerful demonstration of what happens when you release resistance, align with your Broader Perspective, and allow the Universe to show you how deeply it has your back.

Earlier today, I had two client sessions that stirred some old belief momentum in me. One client was preparing for a vacation in Norway, and the other was getting ready for a major surgery. Both are long-time clients, and as I considered their upcoming plans, old thoughts started to surface: Would they pause their sessions? Would my income dip as a result?Scarcity and limitation—those old gremlins—began whispering again.

I didn’t push them away. Instead, I followed the practice I’ve honed for years.

Integration in presence

I walked into the park near my apartment, into the warm, gentle summer air, and let myself feel what I was feeling. I acknowledged the scarcity thoughts, honored the emotions that came with them, and then gently brought myself into the now. Into presence. I let myself remember that in this moment, nothing is missing.

Then, I did something else: I invited those old beliefs back in — not to fuel them, but to soothe them. I welcomed them as parts of myself ready for re-integration. As I did, I felt relief. Spaciousness. Alignment.

When I returned from the park, I still hadn’t heard from the client going on vacation, but the client preparing for surgery—who I had assumed might cancel several upcoming sessions—instead canceled just one. One session, not four. That in itself was a beautiful alignment.

I took the next 30 minutes (a gap created by a rescheduled session) to meditate. That time was a gift. The whole day was already flowing better.

Later, I followed a spontaneous impulse to invite a new friend for a walk. She showed up at 5:15, and we set out on a beautiful loop through my neighborhood.

As we walked, she asked how my day had gone, and I shared what I just shared with you. I also mentioned that I wanted to ride my bike to a local farm this Thursday to pick berries. The farm only accepts cash, and I rarely carry cash. I told her I didn’t really want to pay an ATM fee or get cash back at a grocery store. It was a small thing, but it was on my mind.

Then we let it go. We moved on to other topics, enjoying the rhythm of our walk and the lightness of the evening.

The manifestation happens

About a mile from home, we walked through the neighborhood’s main transit center. As we crossed a familiar stretch of sidewalk, I heard that quiet, loving nudge from my Broader Perspective:

“Look over there.” I turned my head.

There on the ground — neatly folded — was a pair of bills. At first, I thought they were singles. But when I picked them up, I saw the number: two crisp $20 bills. $40 – way more than I expected.

It was like magic. Only it wasn’t magic. It was a manifestation through alignment.

I showed my friend and smiled. Then I connected the dots. This was a manifestation. The Universe had heard me.

I wanted to go berry picking without the annoyance of ATM fees. I had practiced my alignment and soothed my scarcity thoughts. Also, I had invited those beliefs back into myself for re-integration. I had made space.

And the Universe responded—not just with what I asked for, but with abundance. The berries will cost no more than $6. That means I’ll have over $30 left. The Universe didn’t just meet my need. It overflowed it.

Tune to it

Here’s the kicker: Normally I prepare my blog posts in advance so I have several weeks scheduled ahead. But last weekend, I didn’t do that. I had three weeks of posts lined up, but not a fourth. Earlier today, my AI companion and I worked on one story. Now here’s a second. Perfectly timed. Perfectly aligned. The blog is on schedule. My berry-picking dream is funded. And I’m once again reminded: everything is always working out for me.

This is why I teach what I teach. It’s why I live Positively Focused. Because when you tend your vibration first—when you make your alignment your priority—life shows up for you. Tangibly. Playfully. Generously.

This wasn’t just $40 on the ground. It was a love note from the Universe. A nod that says, “Yes, you’re in sync. Keep going.”

To everyone reading this: the money, the relationship, the relief—it’s all lining up for you too. Your job isn’t to make it happen. Your job is to tune to it.

The Universe doesn’t respond to action. It responds to vibration. And when your vibration is clear, even something as simple as cash on the ground becomes a doorway into wonder.

And yes, dear reader, I will enjoy those berries.

How to Turn Firing Someone Into a Powerful Win

TL;DR: The author shares a stunning true story of a client who fired her employee—only to receive a $10K contract hours later. A real-life illustration of how vibrational alignment trumps effort every time. This is Part 1 of an astounding 3-Part story.

There’s something extraordinary that happens when we stop seeing life as a linear chain of cause and effect, and start recognizing it as a living mirror of our vibrational state. That’s what the Positively Focused practice is all about—tuning your inner alignment so well that even what others call “negative experiences” turn out to be springboards into exactly what you’re wanting.

This three-part story is a powerful example. This is part one.

It involves two clients of mine—let’s call them Jane and Sally—whose lives intersected professionally. Jane employed Sally. But over time, their work relationship became strained. Jane had developed a dominant story: Sally wasn’t adding value. She believed it so thoroughly that she began telling everyone around her that Sally wasn’t producing anything meaningful. Eventually, Jane reached what she called the “last straw.”

She decided she was going to fire Sally. But the truth was: Sally had been doing great work—far beyond what was asked of her. Jane simply couldn’t see it.

When Stories Become Reality (and Blind Us to What’s True)

The Positively Focused perspective reminds us: your beliefs filter your world. Jane’s belief that Sally didn’t contribute value was so active, it completely blocked her ability to see the value right in front of her.

Sally had completed a task that Jane assigned—breaking up blog content for social media. Not only that, she also built, from scratch, a custom database using ChatGPT to organize and manage that content. But when Jane saw the database—because it had no content in it yet—she concluded Sally wasted her time. The truth was, Sally had the content ready. She just hadn’t loaded it in yet. Sally showed Jane the content, but Jane ignored what Sally presented.

Jane literally did not see what Sally had done…because her vibration wouldn’t allow it.

Firing Sally was the natural next step given Jane’s and Sally’s belief momentum.

This is not a failure of observation—it’s a demonstration of how powerfully our inner reality determines what we perceive outside us. Our persistent stories don’t just color the world; they shape it. They blind us to evidence that contradicts them. Jane wasn’t wrong in a moral sense. She was just vibrationally tuned to a version of Sally that matched her expectation.

This is how creation works.

The Universe Orchestrates More Than We Know

As this was unfolding, something else happened: a customer Jane had long disliked—due to their poor communication, arriving late to meetings, and overly wordy updates—suddenly died. The passing shocked Jane. But this loss created a vacuum in that customer’s organization.

A new interim CEO stepped in. She immediately emailed Jane, asking if Jane would be open to amending their contract—expanding it from a small $300 contract…to a $10,000 one.

Yes. From $300 to $10,000.

This is a client Jane had barely done any work for. But Jane had previously told me she wanted a second $10,000 client. The first one, a dental client, was already active. Now, out of what looked like tragedy and workplace drama, the Universe delivered the second.

Jane didn’t have to do anything for it. It came through alignment. That’s not the end of this story however. It’s just the beginning. But let’s pause here, because this is where many people miss the magic.

They think that Jane got lucky. That a door closed and another opened. That “one person died, another got fired, and everything worked out in the end.” But that’s not what happened.

What actually happened is this: the Universe perfectly matched everyone involved with the experiences they were aligned with—and in doing so, set up the next chapter of each person’s expansion. And they all won. Jane got her second $10,000 client. Sally, as you’ll see in Part 2, got something even more valuable than a job. And I, as their guide, got the supreme joy of watching divine timing play out in real time.

More to come tomorrow.

How To Manifest $1100 Overnight (Without Trying)

Yesterday I wrote about a client struggling with “what is”, what she calls “the truth”. In a little over 24 hours, that client manifested a solution to that struggle. I wrote in that previous post about how fabulously she aligned to better-feeling thoughts about money making her a match to what happened next.

Without going into details, the client needed a lot of money. She worried about a home repair she needed. In our session this week, she projected her worry onto me, thereby creating a version of me she believed wasn’t doing the Positively Focused practice “correctly” because I didn’t give her money I promised I’d give her in the time she thought she needed it.

I did tell her when I’d give it to her and intend to keep that promise. But something I said, apparently triggered her. Combined with her worry about the repair, she projected the source of her problem onto me. Even though the amount I said I would give her was far, FAR less than what she told me she needed.

After clarifying how she was making me the origin of her problems, when in reality, it was her creating those problems for herself, I saw her visibly soothed. So much so that by the time yesterday’s session was over, she occurred as a totally different person than moments before. I then assured her that the money she believes she needs for this repair is, in fact, on the way. But she has to become a match to that money. Pointing out her shift in mood, I congratulated her on becoming that match.

Then it happened

This afternoon, I got several text messages from this client, proving, to me, at least, that I succeeded in having her collapse into my high vibration. That’s exactly what happened last week, with the client whose allergy symptoms went away when she collapsed into my high vibration. The client needing the repair texted nothing but positive things about how her budding business.

She texted nothing more about needing money.

A bit later, she sent me another text. In this one she told me that her work performance last week was so high, she earned an additional $1100 dollars! I asked her if she knew at the end of last month, before our session, that that’s how much she made. She had an idea she did well, she texted, but didn’t realize by how much. Not surprising at all (to me), $1100 was a little over the amount of money she said she needed.

This client is a powerful creator. Even when she’s struggling with becoming a match to what she wants, the Universe has her back. Even on a subject most people struggle with: money.

Let go and allow

This client still has some soothing to do on that topic and others. And yet, her manifestation shows how the universe will deliver – is delivering – everything we want in perfect timing.

As I also told her after receiving that text, sometimes the path to a manifestation’s fulfillment includes an intense period of momentary contrast. That’s usually because that intense period pushes us to finally let go and allow.

What’s so fun is all my clients are having their versions of these kinds of events. It’s all a testament to the power of the Positively Focused practice. You can enjoy your manifesting mastery too. It’s called the Charmed Life and it’s there for you. I can help you get it. Consider becoming a client. My new Cohort sessions promise even more fun and engagement all at a more affordable price.

Law of Attraction, Money & the Myth of Magical Spending

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.

Don’t be that guy.
