T ABLE OF C ONTENTS
Isnt it great how Jeff got adopted? By that family? That husband and wife
with the two kids? And they have the other dog, so he has someone to play
with. And they live nearby so we can visit him whenever we want, and they
have plenty of money to handle whatever his medical needs might be. Isnt that
great?
It was half-hearted and very simple. But technically, Id followed my rule of doing one
thing from the book, so I was off the hook.
My boyfriend looked at me like I had two heads, even though Id told him in advance
that this was going to sound crazy.
Jeff, in the meantime, an 80-pound husky relinquished by his former owner, lounged
right at my feet the whole time I talked about how wonderful that he was adopted by
his new family.
And I didnt expect anything to come of it.
It wasnt until Saturday morning when the adoption fair coordinator phoned to say
there were two families fighting over Jeff that I started to wonder what exactly was
going on.
My boyfriend and I drove to the adoption event to help sort the situation, which
didnt add up at first glance.
Because in our rescue experience, normally youve got to filter a bunch of applicants
before you find one worth considering. And even then, they can get rejected for a
bazillion different reasons. (The groups we work with are very strict about placement
of their animals.)
And were being told there are two families fighting over Jeff, both of whom are so
perfect they cant narrow it down? This was just weird.
We got there and took a look at the paperwork from the two prospective families.
They were each exactly as I described in my script: A husband and wife with two kids
and another dog. Local to the area and well-qualified to meet medical expenses.
And they both insisted on having this particular dog. As in, almost coming to blows
over being awarded the privilege of taking this dog home.
The same dog that had absolutely no lookers for the entire three months wed be
dragging him to this same adoption fair.
All of a sudden now hes a hot commodity.
I was speechless.
After handing the applications back to the adoption coordinator without a word, I
walked to the parking lot to sit in the car and reflect on what had just transpired.
Was there something to this scripting thing after all?
I realized that author might not be as crazy as Id
thought. (My apologies, Dr. C.)
That afternoon Jeff went home with one of the lucky
families to live happily ever after in the lap of luxury.
And the next day our high-energy springer spaniel
Oakley was adopted by an absolute perfect match
an active single guy who was a runner, an outdoor
enthusiast, and a fan of this somewhat challenging
breed. His girlfriend also had a springer spaniel so it
seemed like it couldnt have worked out better!
Two dogs adopted in one weekend was miracle material for us.
And then Tuesday night a local rescue group offered to take two of our black labs off
our hands to adopt them out of their own group.
We were down four dogs in four days. Our dry streak was officially broken and our
sanity started to return as hope replaced despair and discouragement. (It had been a
rough three months with eight big dogs not to mention over a dozen foster cats - in
our 850-square-foot house.)
I wasnt the same person after that experience. Seeing those two perfect applications,
both families intent on taking Jeff home with them, less than 48 hours after Id
scripted it that was a game-changer for me.
After that I read everything I could get my hands on about our creative powers, which
back then wasnt much.
This was before The Secret, before Ask And It Is Given, even before the movie What The
Bleep Do We Know.
I didnt even know the phrase Law of Attraction (acronym LOA used in this book)
until I found it in Lynn Grabhorns Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting.
But from that moment on at the adoption fair I
couldnt stop thinking about, studying, practicing and
sharing conscious creation.
After experimenting with my manifesting skills in
various ways, I eventually quit my day job of helping
people with their money (as a financial planner and
retirement specialist) to devote my work to amping
up our conscious creation skills.
And thats what Ive been doing full time for over a
decade.
Ive been working with people and their money since 1993 when I got my first job at
Fidelity Investments, and obtained my certified financial planner designation while
making the rounds at local banks as a retirement specialist. Money is a subject I love
working with people on! And when we combine it with our conscious creation
powers, wowza! Thats when it gets really good!
For those of you who care, my formal resume credentials over the years included a
Certified Financial Planner license, Qualified Pension Administrator designation,
Series 6, 7 and 63 licenses, an insurance license, and two coach training programs
including a Master Coach certification from Martha Beck Inc. Ive worked with
hundreds of clients over the years, hosting the biggest LOA membership site online,
and publishing one of the most highly trafficked LOA blogs. I know money and I
know LOA. This is my wheelhouse.
Ive studied - and you may recognize in this book - the principles of manifesting by
Abraham, Mike Dooley, Bashar, Ptaah, Stuart Wilde, and Neville, among others.
Many thanks to the teachers who have contributed to my understanding and success
with money manifesting.
Perhaps because I spent most of my corporate career talking with people about their
money that I find money is still one of my favorite subjects to help others manifest.
Not because money is the be-all and end-all of happy living. I dont think its that at
all. But rather because once we grow our manifesting skills in this area of life, we feel
freer to focus our attention and our powers on more important topics.
So what do you say we get this money party started, huh?
One thing I want to say before we dive in its okay to be skeptical.
I actually think thats a healthy habit to question input from others and find our own
truths rather than take someone elses word for it.
I myself thought this was nutty stuff when I first ran across it, so I get it.
And that wont stop the magic from unfolding if youre willing to play along.
Lets begin
T HE B ASIS
OF
M ONEY D ESIRES
(W HY W E W ANT M ONEY )
What is it about money that seems to have us all interested in getting more of it?
I mean, we cant eat or drink it; it doesnt make very good shelter or clothing. It cant
keep us warm at night, or tell us how great our hair looks. It cant keep us company
when were lonely or help us feel better when were sick.
So why in the world are we all fired-up about money?
Because of what we think it can do for us.
Money is the ultimate middle man.
It was actually designed for that specific purpose to
make it easier for us to get what we want.
But over time weve gotten confused about its
proper role.
Sometimes we mistakenly believe money matters.
When the truth is that its always been about what it
leads to.
We dont want money for moneys sake.
We want it for the freedom and enjoyment or even just the peace of mind we expect
it brings.
Money that we cant spend or trade for something else isnt actually that cool.
We only like it because of what we think its good for, or what it represents.
And having said that, money is a big part of how our society functions, so having
more seems preferable to having less.
Some of those thoughts (that many times are running in the mental background)
include:
Of course none of us would consciously give any of these manifesting instructions, but
many have something similar running on autopilot that kinks up the party enough to
slow down or even block money.
The good news is we dont have to totally eliminate every contrary thought in order to
let the money in but it is helpful to minimize them in favor of the vibrational
instructions we prefer.
And thats what were doing in this book learning to strengthen the vibes that serve
while diminishing the ones that dont.
Thats why even if your previous attempts to create prosperity havent paid off, you
can expect different results this time.
It doesnt matter if it hasnt worked before today is a new day and a chance for a
new vibration. It can happen that fast.
Plugging into a new energetic frequency changes everything.
Even if youve never done it before, even if youre not entirely sure this stuff works,
this is a chance for a new outcome. All it takes is for you to play along.
For those of you reading this feeling optimism or even excitement, thats a perfect
place to be in order to let the magic in.
For the handful of you who are reading this with desperate hopes that something
better happen fast, because dire consequences are in store if it doesnt, thats a
different story. In that case youve got more work to do because those strong contrary
vibrations are obstacles to letting in the money you feel you so desperately need.
Need is like kryptonite to manifesting what you want. Being attached to money
slows the path to your financial abundance.
The best thing you could do is find a way to chill out
about it even if its just deciding to temporarily stop
worrying for now. Give yourself a reason to relax.
The more anxiety you feel about making this work, the
less likely it is to.
Even if all you did was take three deep breaths every
time you notice yourself thinking a worrisome thought
about money, that will help!
And if youre in a downward spiral you feel powerless to stop, no worries there either,
because sooner or later youll reach bottom and there will be nothing to keep grasping
for. Thats when a lot of people finally find relief after the worst happens.
The way we can look at this, is that one way or another, good things are in store.
Whether its sooner or later is completely up to how youre focusing attention about
money.
That leads us to our next discussion about the limits of Law of Attraction and what it
can do for you
10
T HE L IMITS OF LOA
(W HAT I T C AN AND C AN T D O FOR Y OU )
Some people wonder whether its really possible to have what they want, including
financial wealth and prosperity. After all, maybe they were destined to struggle in this
lifetime, or maybe they have lessons to learn about money. Maybe they just werent
meant to be rich.
But students of conscious creation know that anything is possible that we dare dream.
If you can imagine it, you can have it. Thats what LOA can do for you.
What it cant do for you is overcome your vibrational instruction. No matter how
badly you want something.
So if it seems that financial abundance is not in the cards because youve tried so
many things and it doesnt seem to work, thats not because LOA has failed you. Its
because youre still finding your way to the energetic frequency that lets it in.
And I can help with that. Thats why I wrote this book, so lets get on with this
money manifesting party
11
If you play with all three, get ready to be rock! Because this stuff works when you
work it.
Here are the three keys offered in order of my preference that you engage them
13
14
It might be kind of like that at first where it seems like were trying to see
something that were not sure even exists.
Yet it does. And until you can see how thats already so, you wont be able to see any
more.
So our first key is to develop eyes that can see where our abundance already
exists.
Before you go insisting that you are the exception, that you really and truly have no
financial wealth or abundance to tally, I would ask you to consider whether thats
really the vibrational instruction you want to offer.
Because whatever you say has to be so.
If you argue for your lack and limitations, you will
be right every time. And you can do so much better
than engaging that version of life. Youre a conscious
creator or youre becoming one. You can do better
than that.
So if you found yourself tempted to prove you really
truly have no signs of abundance, try on a different
story, please.
Maybe this version might serve better:
What if ? What if I really have been overlooking abundance that I already have?
What if it was just a matter of being willing to see it in order to receive more? What if it were that
easy? Is it possible I could look around and see abundance and prosperity in my life?
Even entertaining the questions that its possible makes room for it to be true,
whereas the insistence that you dont have any prosperity at all shuts your money
party down.
(If it really is too hard or uncomfortable to consider that abundance may
already be present in your life, youve likely got counter-intentions in play that
15
will need reconciling. Thats beyond the scope of this book, but youll find a
blog post about it here and here.)
So, if youre game to play along with me on this how do we develop eyes for our
present abundance?
Its as simple as looking for it.
Since we get whatever we look for (the observer effect proves our power here that
whatever we look for exists), its as simple as keeping an eye out for it.
If Ive got $20 in my account that Ive been seeing as not enough perhaps theres
a way I could see that as true abundance.
(I guarantee to someone running big debt would love to trade places with someone
carrying even a small positive balance.)
I myself had grown to view a six-figure business as not enough. Over the
years, a couple of business coaches and marketing managers had told me
enough times that I was sitting on a million dollar business that eventually I felt
frustrated with anything less. Knowing that like attracts like, what do you think
that perspective on my money was taking me to? Not to seven figures, Ill tell
you that. Seven comes from an appreciation of six, not a disdain for it.
But this practice of beginning to see abundance isnt limited to our finances ...
We can look for abundance throughout all areas of life.
If Ive got a bunch of strawberries in the fridge that need to be eaten soon,
thats a sign of abundance.
If Ive got friends sharing yet more funny cat videos on facebook, thats
abundance.
If they gave me a free apple at the farmers market while I was browsing the
stalls, thats more abundance.
If Ive got more books than I can read at once, thats an abundance.
16
If I cant stop laughing at my sweeties joke over dinner, thats another example
of abundance in my world.
If Im seeing bills I dont know how to pay, I, at one point, must have had an
abundance of credit to rack up those bills! Yay me!
If I can take a deep breath in the face of financial pressure and know that one
way or another everything will work out, Ive got an abundance of trust.
If you can see abundance in financial ways, do it. If thats challenging, then start with
abundance in general plenty of flowers, a bunch of cars, lots of phone calls, tons
of emails anyway you can plug in.
You can warm up on non-money topics which will
make it easier to start seeing abundance later on in
your finances.
So however you can, start seeing where
abundance lives in your life. Start seeing yourself
as a person who is rich in some things. It doesnt
even have to be your own stuff it can be someone
elses that youre appreciating the abundance of.
Just find ways to start seeing and appreciating plenty,
wherever you can.
It might even be fun to make a game of practicing seeing it differently whenever you
notice youre seeing lack. Is there a way to see this as plenty? Can you imagine how
someone else might interpret it that way? Try it on from anothers perspective, and
that might do the trick.
However you can start seeing things differently, practice seeing it as good instead of
bad. See plenty instead of not enough. Thats what the practice in this Key #1.
Once you do, Universe will give you more of that. (For now dont worry about how
- well get to that later.)
17
This practice of switching your vision from lack to plenty takes skill. To dial in
on a new perspective calls for mental flexibility and practice!
But until we get good at seeing what is rather than what isnt, our full
financial prosperity will be elusive.
When Grant Mattos, a former NFL player, was voted off Survivor after being
betrayed by his closest ally Rob, in his exit interview he said, I have eyes for
the gifts. Meaning he knows how to see whats gone right. He knows how to
flow gratitude where many wouldnt.
Its that kind of flexibility in our vision that makes all the difference in letting
our financial prosperity in.
Bottom line: You get to be right whatever you say.
So you can insist that you really truly are broke, that
things really truly are desperate, and that seeing the
situation differently is just a Pollyanna approach that
leads to more trouble.
You can claim that.
My question to you is: Do you want to be right, or
do you want to be rich?
Because allowing wealth and prosperity requires you to give up the old story of not
enough.
And trust me, it feels way better, too.
Dont take my word for it, though. Put it into practice and see for yourself.
In the meantime, lets move on to the second key
18
19
All thats involved, though, is engaging a way for you to think, speak, see, act or
feel the financial reality you want. Thats how you offer a new vibration for Law of
Attraction to match.
Mike Dooley practiced this when he opened his mail to find a big bill that he wasnt
prepared to pay. Instead of worrying or fretting about how he didnt have enough
money, he said out loud, Wow, its a good thing Im rich.
Before he ever was.
Thats how we pre-tend it into reality.
Its what Kidd Rock practiced when he wrote a song about going platinum long
before he had any business claiming that.
Its what the Green Bay Packers practiced
when they were fitted for Superbowl rings the
night before they played (as if theyd already
won).
Its what Frank Butterfield practiced when he
photo-shopped a PayPal statement to add a
couple extra digits to his balance. (That thing
was beautiful to behold!)
Its what I practiced when I bought and wore an outfit that I thought a
financially free woman would wear.
Its what every conscious creator is doing when we go to sleep dwelling on the
delightful scenes from our wealthy life. And what every manifestor does when we
engage affirmations, or use symbols, or watch mind movies of our prosperity and
abundance.
There are a ton of different ways to inspire a new vibration.
However we accomplish the vibrational switch, thats what opens doors that had
previously blocked our expanded wealth and abundance.
20
21
Or to engage a simple five-minute visualization session before you start your day.
(There are a bunch of ideas at the blog if you dont already know your favorite
vibration management tools and techniques.)
You may find that switching up your vibration management method or tool is helpful.
Others discover that mastering one gives them best results.
But whatever you enjoy the most, and is best at helping you feel now how you would
feel then (when youre living the financial reality you prefer), thats what you want to
play with.
And please do keep it playful.
Dont make it a big deal.
Dont make it important.
Dont beat yourself up when you notice you forgot to do it.
Light and easy serves us best in this work.
So please orient yourself toward that.
Which actually leads us nicely into our third key for unlocking our financial fortune
22
23
And thats a bunch of hooey, because money isnt in charge of how we feel. Only you
are in charge of how you feel.
It doesnt do us any good, in fact its quite disempowering to believe well feel better
when the rents paid, or the vacation is booked, or the car is upgraded.
It doesnt work that way. (All you have to do is see a rich person who is stressed out
about money to know that money doesnt suddenly make everything better.)
So we want to stop making money responsible for how we feel.
Thats something Ive been practicing myself, once I realized I was expecting money
to make me feel successful.
Money cant do that for me. How I feel is an inside
job, every time.
And when I take money off the hook for making me
feel successful, then not only can I stop waiting for
money to bring me that feeling (which it never can),
but I can give that feeling-gift to myself right here,
right now. When I do that, I just created the kind of
alignment that makes it super easy for money to
show up in droves.
What Id like you to get from this third key is that how you feel is up to you. Period.
Its not dependent on external circumstances. No one and nothing else is in charge of
how you feel but you. To believe anything else is an illusion and a disempowerment.
When you understand that and take charge of your feeling state by feeling now
how you would feel then, you become a serious money magnet. Because you dont
need it any more. Youre not waiting on it before you feel how you wanted to feel.
Make sense? Its an important thing to understand - and practice - in becoming a
powerful money manifestor.
Think of it this way imagine you had a friend who made you responsible for her
good mood. What would that be like for you?
24
Every time she was unhappy, she expected you to turn it around for her.
Every time she was sad, she blamed you for it.
Every time she felt angry, she took it as a sign of your shortcomings.
How excited would you be about hanging around with this person? Unless youre a
glutton for punishment, youd likely find someone else to spend time with. Because
no one enjoys being made responsible for an impossible job.
And moneys no different.
(Not because money has a personality, but because it can only respond to whatever
vibrational instructions we give it. So if we show up empty, it cant fill us up. It just
doesnt work that way.)
Lets move on to the second point I made earlier
about how money cant actually prevent us from
experiencing or having whatever we want.
This is another important concept to embrace
because many of us mistakenly believe money is the
key to living the life we prefer.
I grant you that money can sometimes be a nice
facilitator of whatever desires we have whether its
for a nicer home, a luxurious vacation, or even launching a non-profit organization to
make the world a better place.
Money can be an effective tool for getting there.
But money isnt the only way there. And many times its not even the best way.
When we open up to this idea, by considering there are lots of paths to live our
dreams, thats yet another way we take money off the hook for what we want.
And when we do that, we become an even better match to it. So this is an idea worth
getting behind.
25
26
If what you wanted was a beautiful place to live, rather than thinking it cant happen
until you have a big financial windfall, you could start loving the place you live right
now. Even if youre at someone elses house. Even if its not a house, but a shelter.
Wherever you are now, if you start loving that up, thats a step in the right vibrational
direction to not just allow but require your next fabulous place to manifest.
And money doesnt hold the key to it. You do.
When you no longer wait for money to rescue you from what you dont want, but
instead you turn your focus and your feelings around right now, that cues Universe to
send in something even better.
But it all starts with you.
My point being that when you stop thinking that
money is keeping you from what you want, and you
start however small living what you want now,
youre taking the pressure off of money to make
it happen. And thats what lets it happen.
That release of pressure makes it easier for money to
show up. Are you with me?
This is such a powerful vibe-changer that youd begin
practicing it this very moment if you truly understood the power of it.
To sum this up, when we drop the belief that money holds the key to whatever we
want to experience or feel, we cut money out as the middleman. Thats what reduces
our attachment or need for money - and what lets it in.
Kind of ironic, isnt it?
That its by not needing it that we become a better match to it?
Yeah, I know.
I didnt make up the rules. I just work them to my benefit.
27
So please know that whenever youre grasping for something out of need or
desperation, youre actually repelling the very thing you want. That goes for money
and everything else you might feel anxious about obtaining.
Instead of clinging to money or feeling needy about getting more, try on the
perspective where you know youre fine no matter what - that youre headed where
you want one way or another, and life is pretty good in the meantime.
Its sort of like saying to money, Im good with you or without you. Things always
work out for me. Im not dependent on you for my good time. Id love to have you
along, but Im going either way. And Im enjoying the journey.
So its not like were dismissing money from our lives as if it werent welcome (it
surely is!), but were not putting the pressure on it to
make us happy or content. Right? Because that
pressure blocks the whole party.
When you get to a place where you know you dont
need money in order to enjoy life, you just opened
the door wide open for it.
And yes, I know how frustrating this can be for
those who have been thinking that money will solve
all their problems.
Money cant do that for you, my friend. No one can.
Because if youre vibrating problems, one way or another, youre getting more of
them. Theres no escaping your vibration.
Its when you learn to take responsibility for your vibration (i.e. your feeling state) you
become empowered to manifest whatever you focus on. Including wealth and
abundance.
For those who might be wondering how to stop needing money before you have it,
Ive got two tips:
28
1. Give yourself what you really want. (Remember: It always boils down to a
feeling.) Bypass the middleman and get creative about other ways to experience your
desires.
2. Stop telling the story that money is stopping you. Blaming money for not being
able to proceed with our dreams is a convenient and popular excuse. And its a
bunchacrap. That doesnt mean you cant manifest that truth if you tell that story long
enough - indeed, you can. (We can manifest anything we focus on long enough!) But
when you know the power of your focus to create your reality, youll have new
incentive to open up your thinking and find the thoughts that allow you the
experience you prefer.
A better story to tell is to remind yourself that its
going to be okay. When you take a deep breath and
reflect on how everything has always worked out so
far, and that theres no reason to believe it wont
continue to, that self-soothing goes a long way in
shifting your money vibe.
Another thing I practiced when I was feeling needy
about money was to take action that helped
release that pressure. You can reduce expenses,
extend your credit, make arrangements with
creditors, file for bankruptcy, pick up some extra income.
I did a couple of things when I quit my job to build a coaching practice and found
myself feeling desperate about money.
I became willing to spend retirement savings (which I did in fact do).
I opened up a home equity line of credit (which I used).
and I reminded myself that worst case scenario Id pick up another job if need
be (which it wasnt).
I could have gone to family or friends if I got in real trouble. I could have rented out a
room for some extra money. I could have sold my house, car and other assets of
29
value. And Im sure there were other things I hadnt considered yet that could have
helped.
We wont all have the same options available to us, but the key is to be able to see
options rather than obstacles.
Another good thing to know about taking action to release pressure
The trick to taking those sorts of actions is to make sure youre feeling financial relief
rather than entertaining woe-is-me, times-are-tough kind of thoughts as you take
them. Because the same action can be a completely different vibration, depending on
how you engage it.
I took those actions in a way that made me feel like I was setting myself up for
success rather than spiraling down a financial hole.
And it made all the difference.
So weve covered the three keys including seeing where abundance is already present,
pre-tending our money bigger, and making money matter less.
Lets talk about what to do once youve engaged the three keys weve explored
30
31
on What you want (thats what you did when you activated the vibration of financial
prosperity and abundance) and then do whatever feels good after that.
This is what a lot of manifestors dont understand or practice they dont know
how to trust following what feels good.
But whatever sounds like fun, whatever inspires you, whatever lights you up thats
your Higher Self, thats the part of you speaking straight from Source that knows
where to put you for this rendezvous. All you have to do is listen for the call and then
act on it.
Thats it.
Thats how we let the money in.
Pretty straightforward, right?
I will admit it can be easier said than done, because
we are so heavily programmed to make it happen
ourselves.
But thats not where our gifts lie. Thats not what our
power is.
Our job is to say What we want, and then support its
unfolding by honoring inspiration.
Universe, our Higher Self, or whatever you want to call the powers that be has to
figure out How.
And its really good at figuring that out. Way better than we are!
So lets get out of the way.
Give your vibrational instruction, and then honor what feels best. Period.
Heres how that might look:
You might turn on your money vibe and then get $5,000 from an ex-boyfriend.
You might turn on your money vibe and get a $10,000 surprise tax refund.
32
You might turn on your money vibe and get a $1,500 check for overpayment of
mortgage insurance.
You might turn on your money vibe and your sweetie wins over $10,000 at the
races.
You might turn on your money vibe and someone pays you a fortune for a
piece of equipment you thought was junk in your back yard.
You might turn on your money vibe and your accountant locates a surprise
retirement account worth half a million dollars.
You might turn on your money vibe and your boss gives you a surprise bonus.
You might turn on your money vibe and your boss gives you a surprise raise.
You might turn on your money vibe and find forgotten money in your
closet/purse/coat pocket.
You might turn on your money vibe and get discounts or free gifts all over
town.
You might turn on your money vibe and get a financial gift from a family
member.
All of those things happened in real life to conscious creators I know. Ive got a ton
of these examples from myself and clients where we didnt really do anything to
receive the money, other than say thank you and cash the check. This stuff happens
all the time.
It really is easier than we make it out to be.
But sometimes Universe calls us to action more than just answering the phone to hear
the good news or opening the mail to see the check.
Sometimes it delivers an idea that sounds like so much fun you cant wait to follow
through on it. Dont wait.
Sometimes it gives an impulse to phone someone or go somewhere. Make the phone
call or go to the place.
Sometimes it lights you up with a thought that doesnt seem at all related to your
money situation.
33
But anything that feels good or sounds like fun or feels like inspiration thats
Universe tapping you on the shoulder saying, Over here.
Follow it. Honor it. Without expectation. Without agenda. Just because it feels good.
If it doesnt feel good, thats not a signal from Universe.
Source Energy (aka your Higher Self) doesnt ask you to do things that you dont
enjoy.
So if youre getting an instruction to go struggle your way through something that is
your idea of living hell thats not Universe talking and its not something that will
take you where you want to go.
Many folks dont know how to let financial
prosperity be enjoyable.
They think they have to work hard for it.
But thats not how the system is set up.
When you get aligned with financial abundance (or
big fat cash or however you describe the money you
want), once you get aligned with it all you have to
do is whatever feels best.
And no one knows what that is but you.
Because, what feels good to one person, could be detestable to another.
So you have to learn to trust your inner guidance and hear your personal inspiration
and then have the courage to honor it.
Lots of people wont agree with the signals youre getting, theyll tell you why that
wont work, theyll tell you that you cant expect rewards without struggle, theyll give
you a lot of input that isnt helpful.
Remember, your job isnt to follow their instructions or win their approval or get
them to agree with what youre doing.
34
Your job is to align with abundance or prosperity and then answer whatever call
you get from guidance/Universe/inspiration.
Got it?
Its easy to forget, but super powerful to practice.
So do your best to get out of Universes way in delivering it, by tending to your
focus and then just trusting whatever is your idea of a good time.
My idea of a good time today is writing a free ebook on manifesting money. That
might be your idea of a terrible time. Who would want to do this? Who would think
this is fun? (Me, thats who! And thats why Im doing it!)
Because I know how it works. I tell Universe what I
want (by feeling it first) and it figures out how to get
me there. As long as Im having a good time, Im on
the path to what I want.
Your idea of a good time today might be going on a
family road trip to the big city. I dont mind a road
trip, but Id rather take a dog than go with the family
and I think big cities are to be avoided at all costs.
Take me to the mountains, please!
See how its different for each of us?
We cant get our action instructions from others. They simply dont know what
Universe knows about creating our abundance.
But you know. Its the impulses and nudges and whispers and inspirations and bright
ideas that come after you get aligned to what you want.
Trust those.
And stop working so hard to make your money. Its slowing up your whole party!
Two disclaimers before we end this chapter:
35
This only works when you are pointed where you want to go. If youre dialed on
worry or anxiety about money, then the impulses you get are just taking you to more
of that. You have to get dialed in to what you want first.
The way Abraham says this is, Alignment and then Meaning you have to get
vibrationally lined up with prosperity or abundance first. And then you do what feels
best.
Those three keys you studied here earlier will help you create that alignment. Theyre
not the only ways to get there, there are plenty of others, but theyre the ones Im
sharing in this book.
However you do it, though, get lined up first. And
then do what feels good.
Dont go quoting that I said all you have to do is
whatever feels good. Youve got to get lined up first.
Its a very key part of the formula!
Second disclaimer:
Sometimes your idea of a good time might involve
hard work. It might not be easy. It might involve
some sweat and some late nights. Who knows? Well,
you do. No one else does. Dont let them judge your
inspired actions. Because what inspires you might look like hard work to someone
else.
Writing this ebook is an example.
To my boyfriend who is out golfing right now, he thinks hes having a better time
than I am today. He thinks Im working. And technically, a lot of people would call
this work.
I call it inspired action. This is my idea of a good time.
After Im done with this, Ill probably take a shower. Then maybe walk the dogs.
Maybe do some yard work. Whatever sounds good.
36
I know to orient my life to paying attention to my focus first (which I dont get right
all the time. I do a lot of redirection.) But the system is very forgiving. So even when I
get it wrong some of the time, it still works well.
I pay attention to my focus first, and then I do, to the best of my ability, whatever
sounds like fun.
Because when I do that, I make it easy for Universe to deliver everything Ive been
wanting.
Okay, I got a little sidetracked in this disclaimer, but the point I want to make is that
sometimes whats calling you might seem scary. It might be to say Yes to a
speaking invitation, or to a new job across the country, or to adopt a kitten, or break
up with a love interest, or to get a surgery or to run
for office.
I dont know what your inspiration is and neither
does anyone else.
But when its something that makes you stay up late
because you cant tear yourself away from it or
when it makes your heart pound because its super
scary or when it challenges you because others
dont approve of it Im just saying sometimes
your inspiration might look like that.
It might be heart pounding and sweaty and an all-nighter and someone elses idea of no
fun. That doesnt mean it isnt inspired for you. Follow through and rock on with
your fabulous self.

W HERE W E G ET T RIPPED U P
Here are some of the common pitfalls and how to manage them that pop up
when practicing what weve talked about here
Needing others to agree with what youre doing.
They likely wont get it. Most of the world is comprised of muggles who think the
only way to make money is to work hard for it. So you just gotta get over needing
others to agree with what youre up to here if you want to practice this. You can do it!
Questioning inner guidance.
Its not unusual to question whether were hearing
higher guidance speaking or an inner critic. I know it
seems those should be easy to tell apart, but
sometimes we get confused. Sometimes we wonder
whether were really doing what feels best or are we
procrastinating or avoiding whats calling us forward.
The more you practice this and the more you trust
yourself the better you get at telling the difference.
You can do it!
Letting old habits rule the day.
Most of us were well trained that if we want something to happen we have to go out
and make it happen ourselves. And many of us are also operating from old
programming that we have to prove our worth before we deserve the reward.
Overcoming those old habits and programs is just a matter of committing to new
ones. You can do it!
Letting fear run the show.
Money worries can be contagious and compelling. Opting out of those thoughts and
choosing the ones that lead you to actual peace and prosperity takes conscious
38
commitment. And practice. This isnt usually one we master after doing it just one
time. Youll like to get to repeat the process again and again before it becomes your
new normal. You can do it!
Thats actually the theme Id like to you remember no matter what challenges you
bump into: You can overcome them. You can choose new ways of being. You can
create new habits that serve you.
Really, you can do it.
Okay, before I share helpful resources with you, Id like to offer a vibrational blessing
Id like you to know that Im sending you all my best thoughts for your success.
Im seeing you thriving and loving life.
Im smiling at the vision of you at your very best, bringing all your unique gifts to bear
to make this world even better than it was before you.
Im enjoying thoughts of you relishing in your power to create your money reality
however you like it best. Mm, that one feels really good! Can you feel it, too?
Heres to living our best realities, enjoying ourselves fully, and having the ride of
our lives.
Namaste.

R ESOURCES
Before we wrap this party up I want to make sure you know where to find more
support for doing this work on an ongoing basis.
As I mentioned before, we live in a world where this way of thinking and being isnt
(yet) the norm, so its helpful to have resources at your fingertips to help you succeed.
So if youve got questions youd like answered, or would like other ways to set
yourself up for success, heres a list of resources:
Good Vibe Blog (dedicated to everything LOA)
Good Vibe University (online gathering for conscious creators)

Thats a powerful list right there, but the most important resource we have available
to us to further our success is our inner wisdom and our higher power. I actually
think of those as the same thing, but however you tap it by going within to find
your own best answers or inviting angels/guides/God/Higher Self to help thats a
resource you want to make sure youre leveraging.
Now its your turn to go rock this party!
Please keep me posted of your successes and know that Im rooting for
you all along the way.
Love & Miracles
