Why Doesnt This Manifesting Thing Work for Me?

You've written out your goals. You read them every day. You do the visualization exercises. You do everything you've read about in this newsletter and all the other newsletters, seminars, self-help books and web sites, but nothing seems to be happening in your life.

Why doesn't this manifesting thing work for me, you ask?

Well, there is a bit more to it than most people lead on.

In order for the things you desire to start manifesting in your life, you MUST reprogram your thoughts and beliefs.

Yes, affirmations and visualization is the way to do it. But you can only manifest WHAT YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN MANIFEST.

If you wish to manifest money in your life, more than you've ever had before, you MUST BELIEVE that you already have the money that you desire.

What? Now what is the world do you mean by that, Dawn?

Yeah, it sounds a bit crazy doesn't it? But it works, really, it does.

See, you do already have it. It just hasn't materialized into your world yet.

God is your supply for EVERYTHING.

So, let's say you want one million dollars, but your bank account says $45. And the most you've ever had after your bills are paid is about $150.

$1million sounds like an unbelievable amount of money to you. But you go on affirming it and visualizing it, reading your self-help books, doing all the things the "experts" tell you to do. But at the same time that you are doing that, a little voice inside of your head is saying, right under those affirmations, "Yeah, right. One million dollars? You buggin'."

The reason that voice is there is because that statement, "You buggin;" is your CORE BELIEF.

In order for things to manifest in your life you have to change your core beliefs. Once you change your beliefs, you will change your life.
