Speaker:

So you know what you want.

Speaker:

You want more money, better health, better relationships, a thriving business.

Speaker:

And you visualize, you keep a vision board, you take.

Speaker:

You state affirmations, you take action, but somehow your brain keeps

Speaker:

directing you away from.

Speaker:

Taking your focus away from what you want to manifest is really frustrating.

Speaker:

So what's the problem?

Speaker:

Well, it's not you.

Speaker:

The biggest block to manifesting is actually your brain.

Speaker:

I know, I know.

Speaker:

It's the very thing that's running the show.

Speaker:

And yet your brain is wired to block manifestation.

Speaker:

Yeah, I know.

Speaker:

That's disappointing to hear.

Speaker:

I know this very well of my own brain.

Speaker:

It's not designed to create what you want.

Speaker:

It's actually designed to keep you safe.

Speaker:

And that means at least safe to your brain.

Speaker:

Or my brain is sticking to what's familiar, obsessing over worst case

Speaker:

scenarios and generally being a total buzzkill to your dreams.

Speaker:

That's your brain day in and day out.

Speaker:

It's my brain at least.

Speaker:

But I hear this all the time.

Speaker:

I hear this in the conversations I have with coaches and the doubts

Speaker:

and the fears and the worries.

Speaker:

That's their brain being the total buzzkill to their dreams.

Speaker:

So this is the way that your brain is wired though.

Speaker:

It's wired to keep you alive and to keep you safe.

Speaker:

Here's how your brain keeps you stuck.

Speaker:

It fixates on the past of what used to be.

Speaker:

Or it dredges up old failures and makes you feel the pain of them all over

Speaker:

again, again and again and again.

Speaker:

So not helpful.

Speaker:

It worries about the future, spinning up worst case scenarios, taking your mind

Speaker:

where you never wanted to go again.

Speaker:

It scans for threats, locking in on problems instead of possibilities.

Speaker:

Which is why you're still over analyzing that awkward client call from last week.

Speaker:

Your brain is constantly redirecting your focus to the exact opposite

Speaker:

of what you want to manifest.

Speaker:

Because why make things easy, right?

Speaker:

Don't worry, I have some suggestions for you.

Speaker:

So just hang on.

Speaker:

Let's do a 60 second brain reset.

Speaker:

This is a simple exercise to instantly snap your brain out of its survival

Speaker:

loop and shift into manifesting mode.

Speaker:

The right here, right now. Reset.

Speaker:

Close your eyes.

Speaker:

Take a deep breath.

Speaker:

Name three things that feel really good in this exact moment.

Speaker:

Like your warm cup of coffee, cozy socks, or the fact that you didn't have

Speaker:

to set an alarm this morning.

Speaker:

Hey, small wins count Smile.

Speaker:

I mean literally smile.

Speaker:

This forces a physiological shift in the brain.

Speaker:

Even though I'm sure if you could see me right now, that looked really odd, but

Speaker:

hey, it does something in the brain so smile and then whisper to yourself.

Speaker:

Or you can shout it out loud depending on who's around or if you

Speaker:

even care who hears it.

Speaker:

Right here, right now, all is good.

Speaker:

In this moment.

Speaker:

Right here, right now, all is good.

Speaker:

This exercise grounds your brain in the present moment, stopping the past

Speaker:

future spiral that blocks manifestation.

Speaker:

Simple and effective.

Speaker:

Do this as often as you need.

Speaker:

I recommend that you do it as much as you can.

Speaker:

So let's move on to how do we actually trick your brain into

Speaker:

manifesting what you want?

Speaker:

Instead of being super vigilant of all the threats that exist all

Speaker:

around you all the time.

Speaker:

Since your brain is naturally wired to focus on what's not working, you

Speaker:

have to trick it into cooperating.

Speaker:

And here's how.

Speaker:

1. Positive emotion saturation.

Speaker:

Your brain is like a sponge.

Speaker:

It soaks up whatever it's exposed to the most.

Speaker:

And since it defaults to soaking up stress, fear and that create cringe moment

Speaker:

from way back in 2014, you have to flood it with feel good emotions daily.

Speaker:

So you can blast your favorite music.

Speaker:

You can move your body.

Speaker:

Yes, even a dramatic stretch can count.

Speaker:

Celebrate small wins like you just won an award.

Speaker:

Body posture.

Speaker:

There's been a lot of studies on body posture and how that can actually change

Speaker:

your perspective, your emotions and your brain.

Speaker:

2. Mental venting.

Speaker:

Your brain needs an outlet for its constant noise, its constant rant.

Speaker:

So instead of letting those worries sit in your head on a playback

Speaker:

loop, dump them onto paper.

Speaker:

Write out everything that is weighing on you.

Speaker:

Then rewrite it as if you were coaching a friend through it.

Speaker:

Because you know he they don't talk to your bestie the way you talk to yourself.

Speaker:

At least I hope not.

Speaker:

While it's drift in any direction during your next meditation till

Speaker:

they all just go silent.

Speaker:

Yes, it can happen. I promise.

Speaker:

So you know, in meditation, we're often taught to meditate with the

Speaker:

purpose of silencing your thoughts.

Speaker:

So a lot of people experience this resistance and this frustration because

Speaker:

they are trying to silence their thoughts, right?

Speaker:

They're meditating and thought after thought continues to bubble up and pop up

Speaker:

in their head and they just can't find a quiet second or moment.

Speaker:

What if you just let that happen?

Speaker:

You just let the thoughts go, let them bubble up to the surface.

Speaker:

Let the mental rant ensue.

Speaker:

The mental venting.

Speaker:

Just let it go until.

Speaker:

I promise it won't go on forever.

Speaker:

Until it begins to dissipate.

Speaker:

3. Happiness cultivation.

Speaker:

A happy brain is a manifesting brain.

Speaker:

And no, this doesn't mean focusing or I should say forcing positivity 24, 7.

Speaker:

It means actively choosing joy, even if it's only in small doses.

Speaker:

Look, happiness is a skill.

Speaker:

I am a firm believer that becoming a happy person is a skill.

Speaker:

Start your day with one thing that makes you feel happy.

Speaker:

Give yourself permission to enjoy the present moment without

Speaker:

turning it into a to do list.

Speaker:

Yeah, that's something I had to work on.

Speaker:

Make a list of all the things that make you feel happy.

Speaker:

You have to actively practice being happy.

Speaker:

You have to practice cultivating happiness.

Speaker:

You have to practice finding happiness and exposing your brain to it.

Speaker:

More and more and more.

Speaker:

The daily practice that keeps your brain aligned with your desires.

Speaker:

Here we go.

Speaker:

Manifesting is about training your brain, as I said, about practicing to hold the

Speaker:

desired energy, vibration or frequency of what you want to experience.

Speaker:

Let me repeat that.

Speaker:

Manifesting is about training your brain to hold the desired energy, vibration or

Speaker:

frequency of what you want to experience.

Speaker:

The three Minute Future Lock in exercise every morning.

Speaker:

Imagine the moment your manifestation arrives.

Speaker:

That moment, that glorious moment.

Speaker:

Focus on how it feels, not just what it looks like.

Speaker:

Carry that feeling into your day.

Speaker:

Your brain will start seeking ways to match it.

Speaker:

And when I say carry that feeling into your day, I know that that can

Speaker:

be a rather generic statement.

Speaker:

And you ask the question how?

Speaker:

And what I don't want you to do is fake it.

Speaker:

Just imagine that moment that your manifestation arrives.

Speaker:

Feel.

Speaker:

You know, even if it's for like a split second, you feel something really

Speaker:

wonderful and then you try to fake that wonderful throughout the day.

Speaker:

That's not what I'm talking about.

Speaker:

I don't want you to force anything.

Speaker:

What I mean by that is when you have that moment that you're imagining that your

Speaker:

manifestation arrives and you can tap into what that will feel like.

Speaker:

And there's some excitement there, right there.

Speaker:

Maybe there's relief, there's happiness, joy, celebration, whatever that is.

Speaker:

At any point throughout your day, I want you to make a conscious effort to recall

Speaker:

that memory that you have created for yourself and feel it again.

Speaker:

Even if it is literally 1 1,000, 2 1,000, 3 1,000.

Speaker:

Good. Okay.

Speaker:

This is where discipline is required.

Speaker:

This is where you have to practice it, right?

Speaker:

You literally have to practice feeling these emotions and exposing your

Speaker:

brain to this over and over again.

Speaker:

This isn't just woo woo bs.

Speaker:

Your brain literally filters the world based on what it expects to see.

Speaker:

So make sure it's looking for what you actually want.

Speaker:

No more letting it distract you or take your focus away.

Speaker:

Because it will. It's going to.

Speaker:

That's what it's designed to do because it seems to think it knows best.

Speaker:

If you're struggling to focus on what you want to manifest, it's not a you

Speaker:

problem, it's a brain problem.

Speaker:

And you can actually outsmart it.

Speaker:

Train your brain to stay present, feel good, and expect the best.

Speaker:

Even though we know we can't control everything and we'll handle whatever comes

Speaker:

our way, we can stay present, feel good, cultivate happiness, and expect the best.

Speaker:

And watch how quickly things begin to change for you.

Speaker:

If you want healthier finances, pull the happiness you're

Speaker:

cultivating into that thought.

Speaker:

If you want more clients, more success, pull that into your thoughts

Speaker:

during your daily practices.

Speaker:

If you are out having coffee with a friend and your friend says something really

Speaker:

funny and you, both of you are laughing to the point of tears, I want you to recall

Speaker:

that moment and that incredible happiness.

Speaker:

And I want you to pull that into the thoughts about wanting healthier

Speaker:

financial situation or more clients or more success or to lose weight.

Speaker:

I want you to pull that happiness in.

Speaker:

I call this borrowing joy.

Speaker:

To become good at anything, you have to practice, and manifesting is no different.

Speaker:

Practicing honing your focus despite your brain's natural tendencies,

Speaker:

that's the goal.

Speaker:

So let me repeat that.

Speaker:

Practicing honing your focus despite you your brain's natural tendencies,

Speaker:

that's the goal.

Speaker:

As you get stronger, you can keep your focus on what you want to manifest longer.

Speaker:

And I think you'll find that your life and business begins to change.

Speaker:

Try it.
