What Nobody Tells You About Manifestation — Transcript

1. 0:00Since the 2006 release of the film and
2. 0:02book The Secret, followed by the 2020
3. 0:05pandemic social media manifestation
4. 0:07craze, manifestation has become a
5. 0:09mainstream concept. There are so many
6. 0:12people teaching about manifestation, so
7. 0:14many people talking about it, so many
8. 0:15people posting about their manifestation
9. 0:17journeys online, but there is something
10. 0:19really important that nobody is talking
11. 0:21about when it comes to manifestation. A
12. 0:23tiny little detail that isn't so tiny at
13. 0:25all. This little detail is what we're
14. 0:27going to be talking about in today's
15. 0:29video.
16. 0:34The idea that has been propagated is
17. 0:36that manifestation is really, really
18. 0:38simple. That it's as simple as think a
19. 0:40positive thought where you are
20. 0:41completely in the experience of already
21. 0:43having the thing that you desire, and
22. 0:45then it will appear or happen.
23. 0:48As if the conscious mind were a device
24. 0:50that simply orders what it wants from a
25. 0:52compliant universe. The reality of
26. 0:55manifestation is not this kindergarten.
27. 0:57Here's what nobody tells you about
28. 0:59manifestation.
29. 1:00One, the conscious mind is not the only
30. 1:03player in the picture of manifestation.
31. 1:05It is not the only thing dictating your
32. 1:07vibration. Subconscious processes are
33. 1:10too. In fact, the subconscious mind is
34. 1:12what rules your mind.
35. 1:14Conscious focus rules an embarrassingly
36. 1:16low percentage of your daily mental
37. 1:18activity. What does this mean?
38. 1:20You can consciously focus on having
39. 1:22wealth for 20 minutes a day. However, if
40. 1:24your subconscious mind holds a core
41. 1:26belief like money is the root of all
42. 1:28evil, your subconscious is going to win
43. 1:30out, and you are unlikely to manifest
44. 1:33wealth.
45. 1:34On top of this, your mind creates an
46. 1:35internal model of the world based on
47. 1:37past experiences, not present conscious
48. 1:40wishes. It projects what it expects to
49. 1:42see onto reality. This predictive
50. 1:45processing mechanism tends to be far
51. 1:48stronger than conscious focus. Contrary
52. 1:51to what people whose primary coping
53. 1:52mechanism is to avoid all things they
54. 1:54deem negative and to cling to a pure
55. 1:56positive mindset tend to espouse
56. 1:59the integration of the subconscious is
57. 2:01critical work if what you are interested
58. 2:03in is manifestation.
59. 2:06Two, when you are manifesting on an
60. 2:07energetic level, you are essentially
61. 2:09declaring I am that.
62. 2:11Not just I want that.
63. 2:13You're saying, I choose to be what's a
64. 2:15perfect match to fill in the blank with
65. 2:17what you want. For example, if what you
66. 2:19want is a compatible partner, you are
67. 2:21energetically saying, I choose to be
68. 2:23what is a perfect match to a compatible
69. 2:25relationship. Well, in this time-space
70. 2:27reality, there's no other way to
71. 2:28experience it.
72. 2:30What happens that second is that
73. 2:33the snags need to be worked through. All
74. 2:36the things preventing you from the thing
75. 2:38you are wanting. Not just one snag, all
76. 2:41the snags.
77. 2:42And relative to certain things you
78. 2:43desire, there can be quite a lot of
79. 2:45them.
80. 2:46All the things, all the layers that are
81. 2:48not that and that are oppositional to
82. 2:50that which you want.
83. 2:51Manifesting is going to bring you face
84. 2:53to face with what in your life and what
85. 2:55within you is not congruent with that
86. 2:58thing you want. But guess what? Working
87. 3:00through these layers of incongruence is
88. 3:03one of the most important things you can
89. 3:05be doing with your life.
90. 3:07Consciously setting an intention like
91. 3:08this, transmitting what you want, and
92. 3:10then working through each layer of
93. 3:12incongruence is the design of not only
94. 3:14your personal expansion, but universal
95. 3:16expansion with it. And as you transmute
96. 3:19each layer, you come closer and closer
97. 3:22and closer. You get more and more and
98. 3:24more of what you want. This process is
99. 3:27an integral part of the purpose we have
100. 3:29for incarnating into this life
101. 3:31experience in the first place.
102. 3:33Three, manifestation is not a passive
103. 3:35process. Actively changing your
104. 3:38perceptions, your decisions, your
105. 3:39behaviors, and your actions is a
106. 3:41critical part of manifestation.
107. 3:43Putting yourself in the mental space of
108. 3:45already having what you want is a
109. 3:47powerful initial step, but just focusing
110. 3:50on what you want to learn will not bring
111. 3:51it magically into physical existence.
112. 3:54What brings it into existence is your
113. 3:55thoughts, perceptions, decisions,
114. 3:57behaviors, and actions being in
115. 3:58alignment with it. A mind being focused
116. 4:01on the desired outcome drives
117. 4:03intentional behavior. This intentional
118. 4:05aligned behavior aligns all the layers
119. 4:08of the being with that outcome, thus
120. 4:10bringing it to fruition.
121. 4:12This means you've got to change your
122. 4:13behavior if you want the manifestation
123. 4:15to occur. You also have to take actions
124. 4:18if you want manifestation to occur.
125. 4:21There's nothing passive about it, which
126. 4:23is what you've been sold to believe.
127. 4:25Four, manifestation is out of the
128. 4:27comfort zone, and it implies a great
129. 4:29deal of discomfort. A very important
130. 4:32part of manifestation is to consciously
131. 4:34choose consequences. We have to
132. 4:36understand the costs and benefits of
133. 4:38staying exactly where we are, as we are,
134. 4:40and not making changes. And to the
135. 4:42opposite, we need to understand the true
136. 4:43costs and the benefits of making the
137. 4:46necessary changes to align with what it
138. 4:48is that we want. We will need to let go
139. 4:50of a great many things that we truly
140. 4:51believe are currently working for us. We
141. 4:54will also need to face any fear that
142. 4:55stands in the way, which will initially
143. 4:57feel like a loss of safety to us.
144. 4:59We will need to unlearn things, to see
145. 5:01truths that are very painful to accept,
146. 5:03to heal past traumas, to confront blind
147. 5:05spots, to take risks, to step into the
148. 5:08unknown, to feel the groundlessness of
149. 5:10letting go of our identity, to feel the
150. 5:12disorientation of stepping out of our
151. 5:14old reality into a totally new one.
152. 5:17Changing our patterns despite immense
153. 5:19pressure to fall back into them is very
154. 5:21difficult. Okay, this list goes on, but
155. 5:24you get the point, right? Manifestation
156. 5:25is not in the comfort zone.
157. 5:27So you can understand this better, I'm
158. 5:28going to give you an example. April has
159. 5:30been doing manifestation exercises to
160. 5:32manifest owning her own salon. April has
161. 5:35been working out of other people's
162. 5:36salons for the last 10 years, and she is
163. 5:38desperate to open her own so she can
164. 5:40express herself creatively, make really
165. 5:42good money without being limited to only
166. 5:44what she can make in a day styling and
167. 5:45cutting hair,
168. 5:47use the product she believes in and
169. 5:48elevate industry standards to be
170. 5:50environmentally sound. But in this
171. 5:52process of manifestation, things occur
172. 5:54that make April all too aware that she
173. 5:57has lots of layers of incongruence in
174. 5:59the way. Just to give you two examples
175. 6:01of many. The adaptive strategy that she
176. 6:03employs to stay socially safe is to
177. 6:05people please and placate others. Rather
178. 6:07than manifesting the salon owning
179. 6:09experience she wanted, the first thing
180. 6:11that happened was that she got an offer
181. 6:14from the owner of the current salon she
182. 6:15works for to take on the task of
183. 6:17overseeing their newly opened location
184. 6:19in a mall.
185. 6:20April thought, "Hmm, maybe this is a
186. 6:22good sign that I'm headed in the right
187. 6:23direction."
188. 6:25She took the position seeing as a
189. 6:26stepping stone.
190. 6:28But when an opportunity came to rent a
191. 6:30place of her own and strike out, she
192. 6:32spoke about it with two of her
193. 6:33coworkers. Well, salons being what they
194. 6:36are, word got back to her boss and her
195. 6:38boss called her really upset.
196. 6:41April was so afraid of a conflict with
197. 6:43her boss that she denied everything. She
198. 6:44told her boss it was just salon politics
199. 6:46and triangulation and then went above
200. 6:49and beyond to be the best possible
201. 6:51employee letting the opportunity pass
202. 6:53her by.
203. 6:54And as if this wasn't bad enough, she
204. 6:55decided to open a side business doing
205. 6:57wedding hair on the weekends. But being
206. 7:00a people pleaser, she set prices based
207. 7:02off of what family, friends, and
208. 7:04demanding clients wanted to pay rather
209. 7:07than what the business required to cover
210. 7:08overhead and make a profit. So, she
211. 7:10actually lost money.
212. 7:13April was not willing to do what was
213. 7:15needed to actually fully line up with
214. 7:17what she was wanting. She was preventing
215. 7:19her own manifestation. But rather than
216. 7:21see this, April started to think, "Maybe
217. 7:23this manifestation stuff is just a bunch
218. 7:25of BS and maybe it's just not for me."
219. 7:28Now, in order to actually open the
220. 7:30salon, she will have to stop her people
221. 7:32pleasing placating behaviors. She will
222. 7:34have to face her fears and yes, even
223. 7:36traumas that fueled the behavior.
224. 7:38She will have to change her perceptions
225. 7:40about disapproval. She is going to have
226. 7:42to choose consequences like upsetting
227. 7:44her boss and being poorly talked about
228. 7:46by other people, especially at the
229. 7:47salon. She's going to need to mitigate a
230. 7:49great deal of conflict and social
231. 7:51upheaval in her life. She's going to
232. 7:53need to set and keep boundaries that do
233. 7:55not please others. She's going to have
234. 7:57to actually take the action of striking
235. 7:59out on her own, opening a business,
236. 8:01seeking employees.
237. 8:03The second layer of incongruence, of
238. 8:05many, is that April has a split. One
239. 8:08part of her wants to own a successful
240. 8:09salon. Another part of her swoons at the
241. 8:12idea of a man walking into her life and
242. 8:14providing for her so she can have kids
243. 8:16and be a homemaker.
244. 8:18April follows tradwives obsessively on
245. 8:20Instagram. She is envious of them.
246. 8:23When she attends a weekly group for
247. 8:25female entrepreneurs, she muscles up the
248. 8:26persona of a hard-hitting businesswoman,
249. 8:28but she got home and had second thoughts
250. 8:30about all of it.
251. 8:32She sat down and watched the movie The
252. 8:33Longest Ride with a carton of ice cream,
253. 8:35and the pain just started to flood up
254. 8:37from within. These were two distinctly
255. 8:39different life paths.
256. 8:41She could do some version of both. Yeah,
257. 8:43you could argue that. However, if she
258. 8:44did this, she would be overwhelmed, and
259. 8:46she would end up doing less of both.
260. 8:49Basically, she would be limiting her
261. 8:50maximum potential in both of them.
262. 8:53Every time she goes um to align with
263. 8:56owning a salon, the part of her that
264. 8:58wants this kind of specific 1950s
265. 9:00feminine experience and home life
266. 9:01activates,
267. 9:03and she puts more energy into
268. 9:05doomscrolling on Instagram than she puts
269. 9:07into taking the steps to become an
270. 9:08entrepreneur.
271. 9:10In order to move into alignment with her
272. 9:11manifestation, she now has to do an
273. 9:13existential deep dive into what she
274. 9:15really wants in general.
275. 9:17She has to re-examine her priorities and
276. 9:19values. She has to figure out the why
277. 9:21behind both desires. She may end up
278. 9:23having to amend the vision of what she
279. 9:25is wanting to manifest.
280. 9:27She needs to do very serious integration
281. 9:29work so this zero-sum game doesn't exist
282. 9:33inside of her.
283. 9:34None of this should discourage you from
284. 9:36manifestation work.
285. 9:38What it should do is to better prepare
286. 9:39you for how it really works. The real
287. 9:41good news is that when you get that this
288. 9:43is how it works, you're not surprised by
289. 9:45what is or what is not manifesting.
290. 9:47You're able to be so much more of a
291. 9:49conscious and active participant in the
292. 9:51process of manifestation. And you can
293. 9:54awaken more and more as this process
294. 9:56highlights exactly where your
295. 9:57subconscious programming, i.e. fears,
296. 10:00doubts, and limiting beliefs, contradict
297. 10:02your conscious desires, allowing you to
298. 10:04address them directly. You can use this
299. 10:06process to define yourself and amend the
300. 10:09desired future more and more, and you
301. 10:11can extract all the plethora of things
302. 10:13that you are meant to extract from the
303. 10:15process itself.
304. 10:17All things you would miss out on
305. 10:18entirely if manifestation did in fact
306. 10:21work the way that you have been led to
307. 10:23believe.
308. 10:24Because we are on the subject, you may
309. 10:26benefit by a guided meditation that I
310. 10:28created called the Why You're Not
311. 10:29Getting What You Want Meditation. This
312. 10:31meditative experience leads you through
313. 10:33the process of becoming aware of what
314. 10:35your subconscious commitment is.
315. 10:37Subconscious commitments often oppose
316. 10:39conscious commitments, making the things
317. 10:41that you want and are deeply committed
318. 10:43to difficult or impossible to attain.
319. 10:46But by becoming aware of your
320. 10:47subconscious commitment, you're put into
321. 10:49this position of empowerment to choose,
322. 10:52as well as to align your energy and
323. 10:54actions with what you really want.
324. 10:57Here's the link if you want to try it.
325. 10:59Have a good week.
