Actually, I’m going to take a step back because the story behind me getting this book is so interesting and I love to tell it.

A few years back, I was taking some courses through Peak Potentials Training.  I highly recommend their courses.  One of the courses in particular is called The Enlightened Warrior Training Camp.  It’s a course on how to “tap into your higher self and unleash your full capacity for success and happiness”.  I highly recommend.

The sister camp to Warrior is called The Wizard Training Camp which is all about manifesting.  I really wanted to take the course along with my fellow Warriors with whom I had become very close.  Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to at the time.  However, during any course that you take with Peak Potentials, they provide a sheet of affirmations that I love reading out loud every morning.  It keeps you in the groove.  So I asked my fellow warriors if they would provide me with the list when they got back.  The thing is, we are sworn during these camps not to divulge any information to others in order for the new people taking the camps to have a full experience when they do take the camp.

I knew this but was not satisfied with this answer.  I wanted to become a Wizard without delay.  So the next morning I woke up absolutely determined to become a Wizard, with or without the affirmations or the courses, and I stated it out loud.

That evening I came home to a FedEx box that was delivered to my front door.  It was from my friend Anneloes in Holland.  Inside the box was a copy of Ask and It Is Given!  No word of a lie and also my friend had no idea about my desire.  She just sent me the book because she thought I would like it and I just happen to get it on the same day that I stated I would become a Wizard no matter what!  It was my most amazing experience of manifesting so far!

This book is so amazing.  It spoke to me like no other book had done before.  It answered some questions that I had been asking for a long time.

It also has some great exercises that teach you about manifesting, because it’s all a state of mind.  One of these exercises is the $1000/day exercise.  What you do is, on paper, you deposit $1000 into your account.  Then you have to spend that $1000 in the same day, on whatever you want.  The only thing you shouldn’t use this money for is paying bills because what you focus on is what you get.  Then, every day after you increase the amount that you have to spend by $1000.  So that means the next day you spend $2000 and the day after $3000 and so on.  When you get to a year, you have to spend $365,000 in a day!

Now you might think that this is easy.  Well at least that is what I thought at first.  And to tell you the truth, at first it was easy.  But then I got to about $16,000 and it started getting hard.  It got a little easier at the low 20′s because I started buying cars but then you run out of cars that you want.

I’ve been doing this for a year and a half and tomorrow is the day that I reach $500,000!

Obviously, I love this exercise and I recommend you give it a try.  You might not last as long as I have but it will open your eyes to possibilities!

Enjoy!

Peace and love,

Elle

I met Steve at a Peak Potentials seminar called The Worlds Greatest Marketing Seminar.  On a side note, I recommend any Peak Potentials seminar.

Steve is a delightful man and very wise.  I receive his 3-minute coaching and get a piece of wisdom about once a week.  I really enjoy reading what he has to say but today’s principle is especially great and rather than paraphrasing, I’m going to copy it here.  I strongly urge you to subscribe to his newsletter.  Enjoy and thanks Steve.  Peace and love, Elle.

Today’s Topic – PRINCIPLE: Getting What You Want
(Principles are basic truths that, when applied,
cause success to come to you easier and quicker.)

An old saying is, “Don’t get mad, get even!”

Well, that’s old technology. Why not just “get what
you want?”

Instead of seeing the world as a place of limited
resources, instead of feeling you have to take
personally what others do, instead of making up
stories about “them” and about what happened,
how about simply getting clear about what you
want and go for that? All energy you direct toward
getting mad or getting even is energy diverted
from your purpose, your path in life.

True, due to our conditioning, this is easier to say
than to do, at least initially. But when you try it,
you will discover that outcomes which are pleasing
to you show up much more frequently and easily.

Side note: If you are someone who is wired to be
competitive, you can still redirect your energy to
getting what you want. Just use your “competitors”
to measure your progress rather than making the
comparison be about them.

Coaching Point: Is it okay for you to be “Self-ish”
enough to go for what you want?
