Creating Music with Positive Programming
For the past month, I’ve been working on producing a series of songs that act as positive programming devices for the subconscious mind.
I have come to realize that music and especially the lyrics in music play an incredibly powerful and important part in shaping our subconscious thoughts, and it is rather disturbing just how much of the music that is created today is disempowering to the subconscious.
Virtually all the music you hear on most radio stations today, with the except of a rare few, is negative, disempowering and constantly tells “tales of woe”.
This type of programming is very powerful, as our conscious mind rarely filters out something we hear in a song. In fact, in most cases, people listen to songs all day long without realizing any of the lyrics that are inside it.
This is due to the hypnotic nature of songs, which kind of fly under the radar and program our subconscious without us realizing it.
However, instead of complaining about all the disempowering songs out there, I decided to create a series of songs to help program my mind/subconscious for success.
For each song I started off with a central theme / message that I want the song to communicate to my subconscious mind.
I then sit down and put together a series of the most powerful positive affirmations with the highest vibrations to support the central theme / message of each song.
Once I know what specific lyrics I want in the song, and the order I want them in, and which lyrics I want repeated when and how often, I work with artists who know how to take that data and make it into a song.
So far I have produced three songs using this method, and I absolutely love listening to them.
I created these songs mostly for myself, but I have been getting a lot of positive feedback on their effectiveness and people really enjoy listening to them — especially the second song I produced called “Money Magnet”.
I’ve also setup a way for people to donate money to this project to help me fund the development of future songs.
I call the project the “AudioMorph” project and you can learn more about it here: http://www.realitymorph.com/audiomorph/
Here are the three songs I’ve produced so far:
Money Magnet – AudioMorph
I Got My 3 in 60 Days – AudioMorph
I’m a Platinum – AudioMorph
The second and third song listed here relate to the Global Information Network (GIN), which I’m a part of, and were designed to help my team-mates and I to support our goals of sponsoring three new members in our first 60 days within the club, and becoming Platinum Level affiliates in the club.
The reason why I produced the “I Got 3 in 60 Days” song is because GIN just launched a new program this past weekend where anyone who sponsors three new members in their first 60 days can earn $1,200 in cash and set themselves up for getting a free car paid for by GIN as well.
So a lot of people on my team right now are totally focused on getting their 3 in 60 days, so this song will help them achieve that.
The Platinum song is also more specific to GIN, but the “Money Magnet” song was created to be more general and can be used by anyone wanting to program their subconscious mind to help them attract more financial prosperity in their lives.
Which song do you like the best?
Why Getting Rich is the Best Way to Help the World
A lot of the most well meaning, good hearted people on this planet suffer from the misconception that their financial success has no bearing on the effect they have on the world.
Often times I’ll hear people in the “Lightworker” community say “I am a healer, but I don’t do it for the money, I don’t care about money or getting rich” or “I want to help the world, but I don’t care about money.”
Sometimes I’ll even hear people saying things along the lines of “If your motivation is to make money, you’ll never succeed at anything.”
Although I do agree that if someone’s only motivation is to make money and they try to do it in a way that doesn’t align with their values, talents and what makes them feel good, they will not succeed. For example, if a friend of mine enjoys day-trading stocks for a living and makes a lot of money doing that, but I detest the idea of sitting at home and trading stocks all day long, then I will very likely fail at making any money doing that even if he has made a fortune himself.
To make money you have to find something that you can at least learn to enjoy doing, once you become proficient at it. You can’t hate what you do and expect success.
What I want to discuss in this post, however, is the other mistake people make – which is doing something they enjoy doing, but pushing away any opportunity for financial success while doing it.
Making more and more money, and becoming more financially successful, while doing what you love is one of the best ways to help the world.
Here’s why…
Money is a Universal Measure of Value Rendered
Putting aside criminal activity, or other illegal or unethical ways of “stealing” money, the only real way to become rich if you weren’t born with it is to provide a tremendous amount of perceived value to the world.
The more value you bring to the lives of the other inhabitants of this planet, the more money you will make.
Therefore, focusing on becoming rich is the same as focusing on providing the most value on this planet.
A person who has provided services to other people on this planet and who has earned a million dollars is a more valuable member of our society than a person who sits on the couch and does nothing.
Therefore, the richer you become the more you help the planet.
Becoming Rich Gives You a True Global VOTE
When you become rich, every dollar in your bank account offers you the ability to VOTE for change.
I’m not talking about voting for some politician. I’m talking about a much more meaningful and powerful VOTE that can truly change this planet *IF* people learn how to use it.
See, ever dollar that we spend on something is like a VOTE for a better, brighter planet based on our vision.
For example, when I go to the grocery store and I purchase organic bananas for $0.10/lb more than the non-organic ones, I am VOTING for the organic movement on this planet.
If, however, I reject money, wealth, and financial success, then I am forced to purchase the cheaper bananas because that is all I can afford and in effect I am VOTING for the non-organic movement on this planet.
By becoming rich, and financially successful, you can influence the corporations and governments and virtually every aspect of what goes on on this planet simply by spending your money on products and services that you consciously feel good about.
Want to help electric car companies? Don’t stand at city hall with a picket sign, protesting against the oil companies. Instead, go become rich and buy and drive an electric car! And help all your consciously aware “Lightworker” friends become rich as well and get them to buy electric cars as well!
Every dollar we spend on any product or service throughout our lives, is like 1 VOTE. That one VOTE helps whatever companies that you spend your money with to stay in business, and thrive in the economy.
If throughout your entire life you only make minimum wage, or just enough to get by, it becomes hard to vote for the things you believe in with your money because a lot of times the best choices are not affordable.
For example, if all you can afford to buy is non-organic foods, then how can you VOTE to support organic farmers if all you can afford to buy is non-organic produce?
If all you can afford is an old, used, gas-guzzling car, how can you VOTE for alternative fuel companies when you can’t afford to buy an electric car?
If you want to support energy healers, and alternative medicine, how can you do that if you’re so broke that all you can afford to spend your money on is traditional medicine?
For example, I know many energy healers who believe 100% in energy healing, but they don’t go to any practitioners to get their own healing because they’re too broke.
I know many people who believe 100% in chiropractic medicine, but they never see a chiropractor because they’re too broke.
I know many people who constantly complain about Walmart and McDonald’s and other companies, but they continue to shop at Walmart and buy food at McDonald’s because they’re too broke to shop anywhere else.
Making and Spending Money Consciously Saves This Planet
If you really want to save this planet, stop complaining about all the bankers and corporations out there who have all this money.
Go become financially successful yourself by making your money doing something you feel good about, and that will automatically add tremendous value to this planet.
If you’re an energy healer, go out there and become a multi-millionaire doing what you do! Do you know how many people you will have helped becoming a multi-millionaire?
If you’re a chiropractor, go become a multi-millionaire adjusting people’s lives for the better.
If you’re an artist, or an entrepreneur, or an athlete or an entertainer, go become an ultra successful multi-millionaire doing what you love. That is the best way you can help the planet.
And then, once you make all your millions and you’re rich beyond belief, spend the money you’ve made buying products and services from companies and people who you feel good about.
Spending money on things you believe in is the best way to cast your VOTE of support for something.
When you become rich you can spend money on products that are good for the planet, and by doing so you support those companies and encourage new companies to start up and sell other products that are good for the planet.
When you become rich you can spend money on services that are good for the planet, and by doing so you support those companies and encourage new companies to start up an sell other services that are good for the planet.
When you become rich you can donate money to causes and charities that you feel good about and help them prosper and make a difference.
When you become rich you can invest in and fund start-up companies that have wonderful ideas to make this world a better place but lack the funding to get started.
When you become rich you can invest in purchasing shares of companies you feel good about and by purchasing shares you give them the financial support to keep growing and expanding.
When you become rich you can create scholarship programs for young students in a field or school you feel good about.
When you become rich you can influence the planet in a bigger way by the way you spend your money.
The Alternative
If you consider yourself a “good person” or a “Lightworker” or someone who is perhaps a bit more “Spiritually Enlightened” than the “evil rich people out there” who you protest about and post negative comments about on your Facebook wall all the time, I would challenge you to consider what will happen to this planet if you don’t become rich.
Just think about it for a second.
If you use the “well I don’t really care about money” excuse all of your life and you don’t become financially successful, look at all those opportunities you will miss out on having to VOTE for what you believe is good.
And if all the other “good people” on this planet don’t care about money, and financial success, look at all the opportunities they will miss out to VOTE for what’s right by purchasing products and services from companies that are good for this planet.
If you don’t like the way this planet is being run right now, realize that you are part of the problem by being BROKE!
By staying broke, and not “caring” about money, you are not caring about this planet because the way you truly VOTE for change IS with the money you spend.
The reason why pharmaceutical companies are doing what they’re doing is because of all the consumers who continue to VOTE for them by buying their products.
If you STOP buying their products, they will become powerless.
The way that the parasitical wealthy elite class control this planet is by programming you to WANT to stay broke.
They don’t want you to become financially successful. They want you to stay BROKE, and they constantly feed you a bullshit story that tells you that there is some kind of redeeming quality in going through life, playing the game with minimal effort and staying as POOR as possible – because becoming rich is some kind of evil deed.
Wake up!
Good people, with kind hearts, who are broke, have very little influence on this planet. But the same good people, with kind hearts, who become rich change EVERYTHING.
Now you may say, “But Paul I don’t *need* to be rich. I’m pretty comfortable with how much money I make. I just want to help the world.”
Well, the truth is that the PLANET needs you to be rich. Because the more money that flows into your hands, and through your hands, the more impact you have on this planet.
A person who lives a life where they create enough value for other people to earn $100 million dollars, and then spend that $100 million dollars throughout their lives buying products and services they feel good about, creates 100x more positive impact on this planet than someone who only makes and spends $1 million dollars throughout their lives.
Want to change the world? Get stinkin rich beyond your wildest dreams. And then spend it all before you die, or donate it to a cause when you leave the planet!
How You’re Getting Screwed Out of Success By The Parasitical Rich Elite
The parasitical rich elite class on this planet have always been very creative in maintaining their control over the masses.
While they make billions or even trillions, without creating any real value for society they keep the masses down with various techniques.
Keep in mind that I am not referring to those in the wealthy elite who are multi-millionaires or billionaires who have achieved that level of success by building tremendous value for everyone on the planet.
I’m referring to those who are of a more parasitical nature.
In the old days one of the ways that these parasitical wealthy elite kept people in the poor and middle class down was through the process of hiding information from them.
They would have secret meetings, secret books, secret trainings and share their success secrets only with other wealthy elite class members.
Today, in the modern day of the Internet they have long moved onto a new, and much more devious tactic that most people simply don’t understand.
Here’s their new tactic.
Sharing (Mis)Information With the Public
Knowing that in today’s day and age, it is very difficult to keep secrets off the Internet, the parasitical elite class instead employ a very sophisticated misinformation campaign to “hide” their information in plain sight.
Essentially, they FLOOD the book stores and the Internet with “SUCCESS SECRETS” that promise to make a person wealthy and rich.
Here’s a diagram of what that ends up looking like inside the mind of a typical person:
Essentially, the real “SECRET” to success is *HIDDEN* in a plethora of fake “Success Secrets” taught by various gurus who are either financed by the wealthy elite to spread misinformation, or simply just misinformed themselves.
A lot of these “gurus” are well meaning people who are simply trying to figure out the formula for “Success” for themselves, but inadvertently what they end up doing is filling their student’s heads with an unimaginable amount of theory about success that is based on half-truths and half-proven results.
As a result, the typical person trying to become successful ends up becoming confused, demotivated, frustrated, blaming themselves and angry as they jump from one “Success Secret” theory to the next, to the next, desperately trying to improve their life situation.
Eventually as they jump from one Success Secret to the next, to the next, to the next, they get to point where they just give up, and accept a life of mediocrity.
The truth is that it is actually not the fault of the person trying all these various “Success Secrets”, as it would literally take THOUSANDS if not TENS OF THOUSANDS of lifetimes to try out and test all these different “Success Secrets” theories to see which one worked, and which one didn’t.
Now, as the market is FLOODED with all these different misinformation campaigns, here is what the wealthy elite keep for themselves:
True Success Formulas Kept for Themselves
As the wealthy elite successfully throw the poor and middle class off the scent of the TRUE Success Secrets, by burying the truth in the middle of a massive amount of misinformation, they simultaneously teach THEIR children the TRUE formula for Success.
They don’t teach their children 10,000 theories about how Success MIGHT be created. They teach them *ONE* and only *ONE* Success Formula that WORKS.
They know this formula works because it has been tested and proven over thousands of years of testing. It has also been hidden from the poor and middle class for thousands of years.
Today, however, the “Success Secrets” formula is no longer hidden per-se, but rather LOST in the middle of a mass amount of misinformation.
I the second diagram I chose to represent the success formula with the label “Success Secret 193″. If you actually look at the ORIGINAL diagram, you will find that Success Secret #193 is actually INCLUDED with all the other theories.
Look carefully…it’s there, hidden in between all the other theories.
Why is that?
Well it is like that because the parasitical wealthy elite class KNOW that the best place to hide something is in PLAIN SIGHT. Nobody looks for it there.
Also, there is another reason why they put the actual Success Formula out there which I’ll get to in a moment.
But first…
The Difference Between Rich and Poor
The difference between the ultra rich and ultra successful is that they *KNOW* which one of the 10,000 Success Secret formulas to follow.
They are given the KEY to unlocking success. They aren’t given 10,000 KEYS, that may or may not work, they are given ONE KEY that works.
Wealthy parents teach their kids “Look, here is the TRUE success formula. Follow it verbatim and you will also be rich.”
This is how it works.
Meanwhile the poor and middle class are left with 10,000 theories on success to try to work through. It’s like trying to use an ATM machine when you don’t know the PIN number. Sure you know it’s a 4 digit code, and there are only 9,999 combinations but wouldn’t life be easier if you were given the actual code?
That’s what the wealthy have. The actual code.
Now what happens if someone out there blows the whistle on them? What if someone tries to reveal the real Secret to Success?
Well, they have a contingency for that, which is…
Crucify the Whistle Blower
Once in a while, someone with insider information on what the TRUE Success Secret is will come forth and try to share the TRUE Success Secrets with the public.
They will actually come forth and *TEACH* Success Formula #193.
But the parasitical wealthy elite are not stupid.
They have a contingency plan for how to deal with people like that.
They start off by attacking the person in the media (this is easy for them since they own the media). They try to discredit them as the messenger.
They’ll typically make allegations that this person is a fraudster, or a scam artist, or something along those lines.
Eventually if that doesn’t work they simply say the following to all the poor / middle class people:
“Listen… this PERSON who is sharing this success formula with you is a con artist! They are lying to you. There is no SECRET they are teaching you. Look, Success Secret #193 is no real secret. It’s everywhere. Look at this author and this person in history talking about it. This is *NOTHING NEW*. They are trying to make you think there is some SECRET to success. Come on… there is NO SECRET. The secret is to just work hard all your life! Yeah that’s it. Just work hard, preferably for one of my corporations, and watch lots of TV and live a NORMAL life… yeah, that’s the secret!”
This is what they do.
They “expose” the whistle blower as some kind of scammer or con artist, trying to point out the fact that this person didn’t invent “Success Formula 193″ at all, that it is really just “Common Sense” and that it has been known all along.
They try to CRUCIFY the person who reveals the REAL secrets by attacking them, and trying to point out that what they are sharing with you is no secret at all.
So What Is the Real Secret
The real secret to success is NOT having access to 10,000 different, theoretical success secrets, without knowing WHICH of those secrets actually works.
The REAL secret to success is *KNOWING* which of those 10,000 secrets is the *REAL* secret that actually works.
Chances are that you most likely already *KNOW* the success secret. The challenge is that you don’t know *WHICH* one of the 10,000 secrets in your head is the real one.
And there’s no way you’ll have enough time in your lifetime to test them all to determine which is the right one.
It’s like if I gave you a phone book with TEN MILLION phone numbers of people inside it, and I told you “One of the people in this phone book wants to give you 1 million dollars cash, but you have to phone him TODAY and wish him a Happy Birthday. If you don’t phone them today, they will not give you the money.”
That would be useless! How would you know WHICH of the ten million people to dial? There simply isn’t enough time in one day to call 10 million people!
See what the wealthy elite do between themselves is that they give each other the phone book, but they ALSO tell each other “The person you need to call is Bill Smith. You’ll find his phone # on page 588, half way down the page.”
See the difference?
The SECRET is knowing WHICH “Success Secret” to follow. It’s NOT finding some long-lost secret that was hidden by an Ancient Egyptian pharaoh in some scroll that nobody knows about. It is not some crazy, esoteric secret magic spell that you have never heard about.
The *REAL* Secret to success is following the CORRECT, PROVEN system for success, long enough consistently to produce results in your life.
That is how the rich continue to stay rich, while the poor continue to chase their tails jumping from one “get rich quick” scheme to the next.
After 16 years of searching, there is only one person on this planet that I know of that has had the guts to actually share what this secret is.
And yes the rich elite are trying to stop him, discredit him, and shut him up from sharing this information.
How Your Mental Dread Board Is Keeping You Broke
Most of us have heard of the concept of Dream Boards.
Dream Boards are an extremely powerful tool that some of the most successful people on the planet use to help them manifest their dreams and desires.
As a kid, long before the Internet was popular, I remember going through Sears catalogs and Radio Shack catalogs and using the pictures in those catalogs for dream building.
Today, I use a 6′x4′ cork-board for my dream board, where I cut out and put up pictures from magazines or ones I’ve printed off from the Internet.
Putting together a Dream Board has become a pretty mainstream practice for people in the personal development community, and especially amongst those of us who believe in the Law of Attraction.
What in the World is a Dread Board?!
About a week ago, while doing some early morning meditating, I was presented with a new cognition related to being able to manifest things in my reality.
It’s a concept I have never heard anyone else talk about in the past, and it was given to me as an answer to a very specific set of questions I’ve been recently meditating on related to manifesting money.
I’ll explain exactly what a “Dread Board” is in a few moments, but I first have to explain something about Dream Boards which will make it easier to understand what a Dread Board is.
The reason why Dream Boards work in helping us to manifest the most amazing things in our lives, is because they penetrate the conscious mind and speak directly to the subconscious mind.
We’ve all experienced or at least heard of stories of people who have placed a picture of an item on their Dream Board, and then totally forgotten about it only to see that item manifest in their life a short period of time later — seemingly with no effort or focus on that item at all.
The reason this works is because it is our subconscious mind that actually helps us to manifest the items on our Dream Board to a much larger degree than our conscious mind. Sure the conscious mind is involved to a small degree, but the majority of the power behind Dream Boards is their ability to communicate to the subconscious mind — by the use of pictures, colors, words and symbols.
When you create a Dream Board and put it up on the wall, your subconscious mind takes a mental snapshot of that Dream Board and creates an exact duplicate of it inside your subconscious mind.
Then with this energetic / mental duplicate, your subconscious mind goes to work trying to manifest your desires even when you are no longer looking at your physical Dream Board or even consciously thinking about those desires.
The more you look at your Dream Board, the more powerful and energized the MENTAL Dream Board inside your subconscious mind becomes.
It is important to realize though that it is *NOT* the PHYSICAL Dream Board on your wall that helps you to manifest what you want, it is the MENTAL Dream Board duplicate inside your subconscious mind that helps you to manifest what you want.
For example, imagine if you created a PHYSICAL Dream Board today and put it up on the wall in one of the rooms in your house, and on that Dream Board you put a picture of a red 2013 Toyota sedan. Then imagine that you stared at that Dream Board every day for 7 days, for 1 hour/day. That process would produce a duplicate of that Dream Board inside your subconscious mind.
Now imagine that you locked the door to that room and you never looked at that Dream Board ever again, but 3 months later you manifested a new car.
And also imagine that the car that you manifested was in fact a 2013 Toyota sedan. It wouldn’t surprise you that you manifested the exact car that you wanted and that you placed on your Dream Board, instead of a green 2013 Nissan (as an example), right?
But what if on the 8th day after you created the Dream Board, your wife snuck into the room where you had your Dream Board and she replaced the picture of the red 2013 Toyota sedan with a picture of a green 2013 Nissan?
It wouldn’t matter, right? Because it is NOT the PHYSICAL Dream Board itself that “manifests” stuff in your life, it is *YOU* that manifests stuff in your life, and the Dream Board is just a tool.
It is the MENTAL Dream Board duplicate that your subconscious mind creates when staring at a Dream Board that is actually the thing that is helping you to manifest things.
That is why it doesn’t matter if your wife snuck in and changed the pictures on your PHYSICAL Dream Board, because as long as you didn’t look at that Dream Board it would have no effect on the MENTAL Dream Board that’s inside your subconscious.
Make sense?
That is how Dream Boards work.
First you create a PHYSICAL Dream Board, and then you look at it, and then that creates a MENTAL Dream Board in your subconscious mind and then THAT MENTAL Dream Board is the one that attracts things and helps you to create/manifest what you want.
Now then, what is a Dread Board then?
A Dread Board is kind of the opposite of a Dream Board.
Dread Boards exist inside your MENTAL mind, just the same way as the MENTAL Dream Board exists in your mind after you create a PHYSICAL Dream Board and stare at it for a while.
A Dread Board is basically a laundry list of MENTAL images and movie clips that your mind creates throughout your life related to all the things that you DON’T want to manifest in your life.
For example, some of the items on your Dread Board might be:
- Going to the dentist and getting a root canal
- Going in front of a group of people, doing some public speaking and being embarrassed
- Getting into a car accident
- Going for lunch with a person you really dislike
- Getting fired
- Being mugged
- etc.
I think you get the idea. We all have a whole list of mental images, or mental movie clips of things that we would prefer NOT to experience in our lives.
We all have a “Dread Board” like this, in our minds based on all the experiences we’ve had in our lives.
As a child, we don’t know that touching a stove equals burning our hands, so we go up to a stove and touch it and it burns us. BAM, a mental movie forms in our minds that links “touching stove” equals “pain”.
If you were asked to look after two 4 year old children that you don’t know, one who has HAD the experience of touching a hot stove and being burned, and a second child who has NOT had the experience of touching a hot stove and being burned, and you didn’t know which one DID or DID NOT have those experiences, how would you know which child was which?
The only way to know would be to either ask the child’s parents, or to watch the behavior of the child around a stove and deduce which child has had which experience based on how they behave around a hot stove.
Chances are that the child who has had the burning experience would avoid the stove, and the child who has not experienced the lesson yet would be more “fearless” around the hot stove.
My point is that there is no way to climb inside the mind of that child and to SEE with our own eyes what mental pictures or movies the child has inside their mind based on previous experience. But just because we can’t see this internal repository of images and movie clips, it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist.
We know that it does because we can all reference memories and pictures / movie clips of events that have happened in our lives.
When we reference such memories, we are referencing CONSCIOUS memories that were formed, but we also form subconscious memories that are formed below the surface.
Okay, so we all have this mental “Dread Board” of things that we DO NOT want to experience in our lives.
Some of these things are placed on our “Dread Board” based on first hand experiences that we have had in the past, such as in the case of burning our hands on a stove for example. Other items on our “Dread Board” show up there based on seeing images of other people having dreadful experiences, such as being in pain, in an accident, or dying, or being embarrassed, or hurt in some way.
Regardless where these images come from, we all have them programmed into our subconscious mind, and that’s a good thing.
By keeping a running memory log of all the things that we DON’T want, it is possible for us to know what we DO want — hence the creation of a Dream Board.
Why Your Dread Board Keeps You Broke
So if we all have a “Dread Board”, why are some of us always BROKE, while other people on this planet experience financial abundance?
Well it has to do with the SELF PROGRAMMING that we do inside of our own minds.
We typically learn this SELF PROGRAMMING in our childhood from our parents, teachers, friends, aunts and uncles etc.
Let me give you some examples.
Let’s say that you are a child and you are out at a store with your parents, and you see a toy that you like. You turn to your Mom or Dad and you say “Mom/Dad, can I have this toy?”
And lets say that you Mom says “No, we can’t afford that right now.”
This creates a certain sequence of thoughts in your mind related to wanting things, and money, and affording things etc.
Now, lets examine WHY your Mom/Dad may have said that they can’t afford the toy.
Could they really *NOT* afford it? Perhaps, but that is just ONE of the possible reasons why they said that. Perhaps they didn’t think you deserved the toy because your behavior has been really bad lately.
Perhaps they had already bought you that exact toy for your birthday which was coming up a week later.
Perhaps they didn’t want you to have that particular toy because they didn’t think it was an appropriate toy for you.
There could be 1,000 different reasons why they didn’t want to buy you that toy, but instead of explaining their reasoning to a child at the store they might have just used the “We can’t afford that” excuse.
At first, parents may try explaining their reasoning to kids when asked a question like this, but kids are very smart and they will often ask follow up question after follow up question and argue with their parents, so parents will typically go to a default excuse like “We can’t afford that right now” or something of that sort.
The reason I’m bringing this up is that very often as adults we CONTINUE that same line of excuses as ADULTS when speaking to our families and friends.
For example, a friend of yours may ask you to go to a concert with them and you may think that the artist they want to see really sucks. But because you don’t want to hurt their feelings, or just don’t feel like getting into an argument about it, you may ask them “How much are the tickets? Oh, $150? Sorry I can’t afford that right now.”
You continue to use the “I can’t afford it right now” excuse that you saw your parents using growing up.
Here’s another example. Your parents who live out of town might ask you “Hey, how about you fly out and see us for Christmas? You could stay for 3 weeks!” and you may say to them “Sorry Mom/Dad, I can’t afford that right now.” where you may really mean “No thanks, I do NOT want to spend 3 weeks at home with you.”
We all use our default excuses ALL the time to get out of doing things that we don’t want to do.
Someone asks us to do something, and we don’t want to tell them the REAL reason why we don’t want to do it… so we use the “I can’t afford that right now.” or “I don’t have money for that right now.” as an excuse.
Now, keep in mind that when I say the word “excuse” I don’t mean that it is not true in that moment. You may very well NOT be able to afford the thing that you are saying NO to.
And also keep in mind that not everyone uses the lack of money as their default excuse.
Some people use the excuses of “I don’t have time for that right now. ” or “Sorry I’m too busy right now” or “I don’t feel good.” or “I’m tired.”
Those are also common excuses which use lack of time, or lack of health / energy as excuses, but for the purpose of this article I want to specifically focus on the excuses related to MONEY to illustrate my point.
Okay, so think about *ALL* the things in your life right now and in your past where you used the excuse of “I can’t afford that right now” to get out of doing something that you DIDN’T WANT TO DO.
And like I said, I am not implying that you lied when you said you couldn’t afford it. I’m just saying that you said “I can’t afford it right now”, which was true, but also at the same time even if you DID have the money you wouldn’t have wanted to do that thing anyways. So your “lack of money” excuse kind of worked in your favor in that situation.
For most of us, if we really think about it, we can think of THOUSANDS of such incidents in our lives.
We say: “I really need to go see a dentist, but I don’t have insurance right now and I can’t afford it right now, so I’ll just wait.”
We mean: “I hate going to the dentist. It’s not that bad yet. It’s not painful or anything. And it costs a lot to go see the dentist. I’ll just procrastinate and spend the money on going out with my friends this weekend.”
We say: “Sorry Mom, I would fly down and see you guys for Christmas but I can’t afford it right now.”
We mean: “It’ll be way more fun to stay here and hang out with friends for Christmas. Besides, I’d rather spend the money I have on the new Playstation that on buying tickets to fly out and see Mom & Dad.”
We say: “Yeah, we’d love to go to Vegas with you guys but we just can’t afford it right now.”
We mean: “We were just in Vegas last year, and it was kind of boring. We’d rather save our money for that new TV we’re getting.”
etc.
Now, here’s where things get really interesting.
When we SAY to ourselves and others that we “can’t” do something because we “can’t” afford it, what we are really doing is LYING to ourselves.
We are basically saying that *IF* we had the money, we WOULD do those things, while at the same time having the FEELING that we DO NOT want to do that thing.
Using the above example, we say to ourselves “I can’t afford to go to the dentist.” which implies “I *WANT* to go to the dentist but I can’t afford it” when what we really may be thinking/feeling is “I DON’T want to go to the dentist, and I COULD afford it if I really wanted to, but I’m just going to SAY that I can’t afford it and therefore I DON’T HAVE to do it.”
Essentially, the lack of money to do something becomes our excuse / reason for not doing something that we actually DO NOT want to do.
And what happens is that EVERY item that we DO NOT want to do gets added to our DREAD BOARD with a little sub-text underneath it which says “Will do this once we can afford it.”
Why Manifesting Money Gets Blocked
NOW, when we are BROKE and we want to manifest more money what we don’t realize is that our SUBCONSCIOUS mind is sitting there and doing all these COMPUTATIONS on EVERYTHING that appears on our Dread Board.
We say: “I really need to go see a dentist, but I don’t have insurance right now and I can’t afford it right now, so I’ll just wait.”
Our Subconscious Mind Concludes: “As *SOON* as we manifest some money, I **MUST** spend that money on going to see the dentist.”
We say: “Sorry Mom, I would fly down and see you guys for Christmas but I can’t afford it right now.”
Our Subconscious Mind Concludes: “As *SOON* as we manifest some money, I **MUST** spend that money on a plane ticket to see my parents for Christmas.”
Basically, we have this entire laundry list of items inside our subconscious DREAD BOARD that our subconscious mind THINKS that we MUST do as soon as we manifest some money.
And because of this we subconsciously associate IMMENSE PAIN and DISCOMFORT around manifesting any extra money that would be left over after paying our bills.
Just image, for example if someone offered to give you EVERY SINGLE DOLLAR to actually *DO* all the things in your life that you previously said you couldn’t afford, under the condition that you MUST do EVERYTHING you said you couldn’t afford to do.
So if 10 years ago you told your friend that you didn’t want to see some stupid concert by an artist that you didn’t actually like, you would now HAVE to go see that concert.
If you said that you couldn’t afford to see the dentist, you would now HAVE to go see the dentist.
If you said that you couldn’t afford to visit your parents for Christmas, you would now HAVE to visit your parents.
If you said you couldn’t afford to buy certain toys for your kids at the store, you would now HAVE to buy every single toy that you previous said you couldn’t buy because you couldn’t afford it.
If you said you couldn’t afford to join the gym to exercise, you would now HAVE to join the gym and start exercising.
If you said you couldn’t afford to take skiing lessons, you would now HAVE to take skiing lessons.
See my point?
Imagine if you all of a sudden HAD to (no choice) DO all the things that you previously said you COULDN’T DO because you couldn’t afford it.
It would suck, right?
A lot of us use the excuse “I can’t afford that right now” so liberally, we may have a laundry list of 10,000+ items!!!
Well, here’s the CHALLENGE.
When we tell our subconscious mind that we CAN’T AFFORD to do something, but really we just DON’T WANT to do that thing because it is not something we would enjoy, we are actually programming our mind to think that once we CAN afford it, that we WILL DO IT.
So essentially what happens is that we have this internal DREAD BOARD of crap that we DON’T WANT to do, and our subconscious mind thinks that IF we manifest financial abundance we will HAVE to do those things, and so it PROTECTS us from all that pain by keeping money away from us.
“The simple reason that most people fail financially is not because of the lack of a plan, it’s not because of good advice, it’s not even because of a lack of capital. It is for one reason—they attach more pain to the idea of having money, than NOT having it.” ~ Anthony Robbins
I finally get what Anthony Robbins meant when he said that most people fail financially for ONE REASON – because they attach more PAIN to the idea of having money, than NOT having it.
I thought I understood that before, but with this new cognition I now understand it at a totally different level.
When I even start to THINK about ALL the times that I’ve used and heard the excuse of “I can’t afford that right now” with someone or even with myself as an excuse to NOT do something, it boggles my mind to even try to imagine how much PAIN my subconscious mind links to manifesting total financial abundance.
If my subconscious mind actually THINKS that the second I manifest large sums of money, that I will have to DO all those things in my past that I said I couldn’t afford to do, NO WONDER it associates PAIN to having lots of money.
And that doesn’t even take into account all the future instances of not being able to use the excuse of “I can’t afford that” as an excuse with people if I manifested incredible wealth all of a sudden.
It may sound really dumb to think that our mind would actually prevent us from having wealth, just so that we can hang onto an excuse like “I can’t afford that right now”, but we have to understand that the subconscious mind is not a logical mind. It is like a 3 year old child. It thinks in VERY simple terms.
If your subconscious mind associates MORE PAIN than PLEASURE to having money, you will always struggle to manifest money.
As I mentioned before, not everyone uses the “I can’t afford that right now” excuse with themselves and the people around them.
Some people use the “I don’t feel good today” or “I don’t have the energy” excuse for everything, and those people manifest bad health and no energy so that they can have that excuse to NOT do things they don’t want to do.
Some people use the “I don’t have time for that right now” or “I’m too busy” excuse for everything, and those people manifest insane schedules with ZERO free time so that they can have that excuse to NOT do things they don’t want to do.
What excuse do you commonly find yourself using with yourself and others?
Do you use the lack of money as an excuse / reason for not being able to do things often?
Do you use the lack of time as an excuse / reason for not being able to do things often?
Do you use the lack of health , feeling good, energy as an excuse / reason for not being able to do things often?
Typically people tend to favor one or two of those excuses / reasons over the others, and typically that is the area of their life they struggle with the most.
For example, for me I very often find myself using lack of money or time as my excuses and I now realize that I’ve been making the process of manifesting total financial abundance a lot harder than it needs to be.
I almost never use the lack of health / energy one as an excuse, and I’m generally almost always healthy.
If you can see this connection between all the items on your mental Dread Board, in your subconscious mind, and the excuse / reasoning you typically use to get out of doing those items on your Dread Board, it will help you to understand why it is that you can’t manifest money, time or health (depending on your excuse).
The Solution
The solution I was “given” to this challenge is threefold:
(1) Awareness – The most important aspect of solving this challenge is to first become aware of it. That is what this Blog post is aimed to do. To explain this concept and to bring it to your awareness. Awareness is 90% of it.
(2) Clearing out the Old – We must clear out all the OLD CRAP in our subconscious Dread Board and unlink it from our excuse/reasoning. We have to essentially re-program our subconscious mind to stop thinking that as soon as we manifest the money (or health, or time) that we want, that it will mean that we will HAVE TO do all the crap on our Dread Board. We have to essentially go back and re-frame our previous statements to acknowledge and be honest with ourselves in the truth that all those items on our Dread Board are there, and that it is OKAY for us to NOT want to do them – PERIOD. NOT because we can’t afford it, or because we don’t have the time or health/energy to do them, but simply because we DON’T WANT TO DO THEM…PERIOD.
I am currently working on several ideas / healing methods to find the best way of clearing these for myself and others. I have some ideas on exactly how to do this, and will report back once I’ve had more time to experiment.
(3) STOP DOING IT – Finally, once we are aware and we clear out the mess we’ve created in our mind in the past we have to also STOP doing this in the future. We have to get out of the habit of using “I can’t afford that right now” as an excuse. We have to learn to speak our truth and to say to people “I do not want to do that because I don’t want to do that” instead of “I can’t do that because I can’t afford it.”
Even if we REALLY can’t afford to do something, we have to ask ourselves if we would actually even WANT to do that thing if we could afford it. If we wouldn’t want to do it, then don’t use “lack of money” as an excuse. Instead let the person know that you simply don’t want to do that thing.
NEVER use “lack of money” (or time or health) as an excuse in situations where you don’t actually want to do something.
Easier said than done, I know, but I will share some ideas on how to get better at this in the near future.

6 CommentsAre You Trained Like a Flea?
In the late Zig Ziglar’s book “See You At the Top“, Zig shares the story of how fleas can be trained.
Fleas are the best jumpers in the insect word, with the ability to easily jump eight to ten inches high.
However, fleas can also be trained to jump much lower than that through a very simple process.
By placing fleas into a small jar and covering the jar with a lid, the fleas will naturally start to jump to try to get out of the jar.
Because the jar has a lid on it though, the fleas will very quickly learn that jumping too high hurts them as they smack up against the closed lid.
After about 2-3 days of keeping the fleas in the jar, with the lid on, the fleas are now trained to never jump high enough to reach the lid.
At that point you can take the lid off the jar and the fleas will never jump out, even though there is no lid there and they easily have the physical ability to jump out.
It is the conditioning of their minds (their beliefs) that keep them inside the jar forever.
I found a short video on YouTube which demonstrates this process, and I thought it was also interesting to note that when the fleas reproduce, their offspring are not able to jump out of the jar either.
Here’s the video:
Can Humans Be Trained Like a Flea?
Now, we can easily look at the fleas and think to ourselves “Stupid fleas! They can’t see that the lid is off, so they won’t even try!”, but the reality is that we as human are absolutely just as susceptible to such training as are fleas.
We all have limiting beliefs that hold us back from achieving what we want in life.
Limiting beliefs can be passed down from our parents even prior to our birth. The beliefs of a mother, for example, have been shown to be passed down to a baby during pregnancy.
This means that by the time you are born, you are already pre-wired with certain “limits” of your mind.
Also, as children our minds are like sponges and we absorb the limits that are imposed upon us by our parents, family, society, the media and other children.
What’s worse is that we are all virtually BLIND to our limited beliefs.
The reason for this is that in our minds, we do not see the self-imposed limits we place upon ourselves as “limits”. Our mind sees them as FACTS.
For example, prior to the 1950′s, in the running community it was a *well known fact* that human beings were not physically capable of running one mile in less than four minutes.
Many athletes tried to beat the four minute mile, but it was concluded by athletes and scientists alike that the human body was simply not designed or built to run that fast.
This limitation was actually a mental barrier that had nothing to do with the physical body or it’s limits.
However, because everyone had this same mental barrier, it was believed that this was a physical barrier – not a mental one.
One athlete, however, did not have this same belief. He believed that it was possible to break the 4 minute mile.
That athlete was named Roger Bannister and on May 6, 1954 he shattered this limiting belief by being the first person to beat the 4 minute mile.
What’s interesting about Roger Bannister’s story is that once HE broke the 4 minute mile and this “mental barrier” that everyone previously assumed was a “fact” was broken, athletes all around the world were now able to run the 4 minute mile.
In fact, less than six weeks after Bannister broke the barrier, John Landy of Australia also ran the four minute mile.
Today, kids in high school are able to run the four minute mile.
It is no longer believed to be a “physical barrier” and therefore it isn’t.
Transforming Your Life
To transform your life you must become aware of the limits that your own mind is placing upon you.
This is not very easily done, as it is difficult to see the limits of our own mind while being inside it. It’s kind of like trying to see the back of your head without the help of a mirror (or a camera).
However, just because you can’t see your mental limits, your limiting beliefs, doesn’t mean that they are not there. It just means they are hidden from you.
Just like the fleas in the jar, most of us go throughout our entire lives limited by invisible barriers that we can’t even see.
We’re afraid to hit our heads against the jar lid that isn’t even there anymore.
Perhaps it was there at one point in our lives, or maybe it was there at one point in our parent’s lives, or their parent’s lives etc., but it isn’t there in our lives.
We can’t see past this “jar lid”, but unconsciously we live our lives in such a way so as not to bump up against it.
As part of the process that I go through with people in my RealityMorphing sessions, we explore limiting beliefs to see which limiting beliefs you may have and how they are holding you back from achieving your goals and dreams.
I then go through a very powerful process that virtually zaps those limits out of existence in your mind allowing you to regain your freedom.
Going through this process can allow you to achieve your goals and dreams faster, and with much less effort than ever before.
