If you are here, it means my work is making a difference in your life and you would like to learn about how you can manifest an amazing life. In this episode, I am going to talk about the 5 manifestation mistakes and how to avoid them. When you bring awareness to something, you are bringing light to it and bringing awareness is the first step in shifting your reality. To access this recording, check out my podcast in English or Cantonese.
First of all, I want to let you know that no matter who you are and where you are, you have unlimited potential and unlimited power in you. It is safe for you to dream big. It is your life and your miracle. And I am here to support you.
If you are listening to this podcast, I assume that you have heard of the Law of Attraction or watched the movie "the Secret". And my question to you is, "How does the law of attraction work for you? Do you get consistent results or inconsistent results? And do you like the results you are getting?" That brings us to the first mistake most people make when manifesting. The Law of attraction teaches us we attract what we think right? How many of you are successful in just thinking about what you want, and it just shows up in your life?
We were taught that thoughts become things and we attract what our dominate thoughts are thinking, right?
The problem is most of us don't know what our dominant thoughts are and how to access and change them.
There are two kinds of thoughts. One is our conscious mind, and the other is our subconscious mind. Our conscious mind is 5% and the subconscious mind is 95%.
Mistake #1
The first mistake that most people make is that they are not taking into consideration their subconscious mind and how it affects everything you do.
Thoughts = Vibration
Whatever gets impressed in the subconscious mind will manifest in reality. Vibration is expressed through action.
How is the subconscious manifest in reality? It manifests itself by controlling our emotions which drives our actions. And our action or inaction is the only thing that drives the results in our life. If you want to have a million dollars a year but your subconscious is programmed to think that it is not safe for you to have that much money, you will be afraid or other emotions which hold you back from taking action on getting that what you want.
Everything that manifest in your life is based on a feeling that is in your body. The vibration you put out to the Universe is directly connected to the feelings in your body. It is not only your thoughts. The feelings in your body will pull events in your life that generate similar feelings.
In order to manifest anything in your life, you have to work with both your conscious and subconscious mind and that is through your thought and your emotions.
Your thoughts are electrical, and your emotions are magnetic. Have you seen the big crane that lifts cars up and move them around? It is composed of a block of steel, which has the magnetic properties. When you wrap it with a conductive wire once around the block of steel and then plug it into an electrical outlet the steel becomes electromagnetic to the power of one. When you wrap the wire around the magnet many times, the force of the magnet increases exponentially. It becomes a very strong magnet that holds a tremendous amount of power. Same thing that happens within us with our thoughts and emotions.
Think about this for a moment. Do you get more emotional when you experience negative events in life, or do you get more emotional when things are working out? We often get very emotional about unhappy events but not so excited about the everyday blessings. Do you start to see why you may be attracting the wrong things in life?
Note that everything we do in life is because of a certain feeling we want to get in life. Think about how powerful it will be to master your emotion and to re-program your subconscious mind to manifest what you really want in life?
Mistake #2
You are not clearing your energy. Like a computer…
In order to shift your reality, you have to raise your energy or vibration up. When things are vibrating at a slow rate, it is not going to get you the result you want immediately.
Most people don’t have new thoughts after 25 years old.
We are programmed with past beliefs and the environment.
If your energy is clear and you are in the flow, things can happen pretty quickly. Think of water, when it is frozen, it is solid and it can only vibrate in a certain rate within a certain area, when it becomes water, it can move more freely, and when it becomes steam, it has the freedom to move anywhere. Your thoughts are the same. When you are in a lower vibration, it is hard to shift. We have to bring in enough energy to allow us to move and we also need to expel enough energy so that we are not stuck.
To avoid getting stuck, do a daily energy clearing just like brushing your teeth and washing your face every day.
Mistake #3
The 3rd mistake is living from the outside in instead of the inside out. You are letting the outside world or the circumstance in life affects you. On the first sign of something that is not going as you wish, you decided that it is not working for you, and you beat yourself up with your thoughts.
Throughout history, I have not seen a person fail due to outside circumstances. That is right, outside circumstances are only our seed manifesting in the outside world, however, we have the power to change by our thoughts at any moment. I have seen people going through all kinds of unbearable difficulties and thrive. But I have never seen a person who allow the circumstances to disturb their inner world and are living a happy successful life. There is nothing wrong with your life until you have a negative thought about it, and you keep focusing on what is missing or not working.
W Mitchell had burned 65% of his body in a motorcycle accident, his entire body was scarred and he lost most of his fingers. Then 4 years later, he got into a plane crashed that injured his spinal cord, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down, yet he become one of the best internationally acclaimed mayor, a successful entrepreneur with a beautiful family. Stephen Hawking got an incurable disease, and unable to move his body and even speak, but became the greatest scientist of our time. Oprah Winfrey was sexually abused at a young age and turn out to be the most successful entrepreneurs and billionaire of our time. Nick was born with no arms and legs and turned out to be the most happy and positive person, and a well-known inspirational speaker, with a beautiful family. Edison failed more than 10,000 times and finally created the light bulb.
When you feel like a victim of the circumstances and the environment, you feel like you have no power to change. You are dealing with survival and have no energy left to create any change. You need to realize that all changes come from within. If you feel like someone is controlling your destiny, you are giving your power away. I like what Bob Proctor said, don’t let another person or circumstances dictate how you are going to live. It has nothing to do with what’s going on outside, it’s what’s going on inside. In order to manifest a life of your dream, you absolutely refuse to let anything that’s going on outside stop you.
A boat in the sea of uncertainties don’t sink, unless the water gets inside. No matter how big the wave, you see the boat floating on top, however, once the water gets inside, even the titanic will sink. We do not fail because of what someone said or how unbearable the situation we are in, we fail because we let what’s going on outside disturb and affect what’s going inside.
Will you use the circumstances in your life as an excuse to give up or will you use them as a reason to bring out the best in you? If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
Mistake #4
No faith and belief- You cannot believe further than what you believe to be true. If you don’t believe you have this ability to co-create with the creator, then your ability comes to a standstill, so you have to believe.
All of the things we can see in this world are controlled or affected by what we can’t see. For example, our thoughts are invisible, but it is affecting our everyday results. Electricity is invisible, but all of our electrical devices, from the light to the computer to cell phones cannot function without electricity. Wifi and radio waves are invisible but without them, you won’t even be able to listen to this podcast. Gravity is invisible, however without it will be floating around in the air. Chi or life force is invisible, but it is giving life to everything in this would. However, when we are confronted with a problem, most of us would try to change the visible. The traditional Chinese metaphysics like Feng Shui, Qi Gong, Iching are all dealing with how you can direct and use the invisible force to improve your life. Many people say that because they are not able to see it, they have a hard time believing it. If you truly understand how the visible world is affected by the invisible, you will now open your mind for some real change in life.
When you change the way, you look at things, the things you look at changed.
Mistake #5
You are not working with the cause and the law of the Universe.
The Law of Karma and cause and effect
The Law of Attraction
The Law of Creation or Disintegration
The Law of Vacuum
The Law of Polarity
The Law of Abundance
We will cover more of this in future podcast episodes.
So that’s all for today, I hope you enjoyed it. It has been my pleasure to share with you the tools you can use to improve your life. Thank you for listening to The Unlimited Manifestation podcast, talk to you next time.
