What is meant for you will find you

I wholeheartedly believe this…

You don’t need to stress about the future.
You don’t have to worry if there will be enough.
Because what is meant for you will find you.

But the “believe” part is the most difficult part in the manifesting process. Letting go and believing that your desire will manifest - and the waiting part - trigger all our money blocks.

No matter how many times we write our desires,
no matter if we say all these affirmations and mantras,
no matter if we do all the visualization and meditation
if in our core we doubt that our desire will manifest, it is then difficult to make it happen.

“LynJoy, I know that my heart and mind should 100% believe for something to manifest. But how can I do it when I’m constantly reminded na mahirap sya ma-achieve? I try to feel good, grateful, and abundant but many times, I feel it’s all a lie.”

Glenny

You won’t believe 100% and that’s okay!!!

Here’s the thing, our mind knows what has already happened. Our mind also absorbs all the events and experiences of our family, friends, and the society at large. And all these created our limiting beliefs - because we’ve experienced, heard, seen, felt everything in the past (and the present).

To say that we know what will happen in the future is a complete lie. We don’t. We’re not Nostradamus. We can’t even predict if Taal will freaking blow up this week or not!

So you can imagine if there is some kind of resistance when we try to manifest. There is no way we can wholeheartedly remove our doubt to something that will happen in the future. Sure, in theory, maganda na wala kang doubt di ba? But who the hell are we kidding?

Think about this though, for sure you’ve manifested plenty of good things in your life - most of them unconsciously.

Pause for a few minutes and think of some amazing things you’ve experienced and accomplished (being a parent, graduating from college, having a job, places you’ve travelled to, etc) Also enumerate the beautiful things you have right now (your phone, laptop, house, bag, etc).

I bet that you never obsessively thought about them. They just happened. You can’t really say that everyone can have a baby or afford to buy a bus ticket to visit their family but you did (for example). You manifested most of the things you have without thinking. As if they just happened! You were not obsessively writing down your desires or reciting it 100x a day. If you really think about it, the reality manifested because of the energy you emitted - it was the energy of knowing it will happen no matter what.

The ‘how’ is none of your business

Our mind is designed to plan and figure out stuff. That’s a good thing. But what our mind can’t foresee is the infinite possibilities. We think that if we want to have a 5-bedroom house near the lake, that we need to earn this much and save this much, and be promoted to this job or speak to the bank to negotiate interest rates, etc. We create a plan on how we will manifest our dream house.

But as you know, this is not how it works. There is an unlimited combination of circumstances that can lead to getting all the things our heart desires.

My advice though is pay attention to your intuition. This intuitive feeling brought you to where you are right now. These little nudges from the Universe that you listened to and made you achieved/accomplished things. And these nudges, the same way it led you to your desires, will also manifest what you want in the future.

Who knows, that strong nudge to strike a conversation with a stranger at a coffee shop, will lead to 10 new clients for you. And this is why the ‘how’ is none of our business.

Our job is to dream, believe, and take inspired actions.

Don’t be desperate

I think this is how I want to summarize this newsletter. Manifestation is all about energy. You can’t ‘mask’ your fears with positive thoughts and mantras. You can’t fake happiness. The Universe doesn’t respond to our conscious wants and desires - it responds to our energy. It can’t give us something just because we want it or because we’re good people. We co-create.

So do what you need to do (inspired actions) and continue following your feelings. Don’t be desperate or overthink if you’re doing it right. If presented with two options, go with the one that feels better.

Let God do the rest.

The post “How come I can’t manifest?” appeared first on The Wealthy Pinay.

I always tell this to people who want to quit their hated job but are so scared to do it. Because, indeed, opportunities are everywhere.

Since I returned to the Philippines, I was presented with so many business opportunities and most of them don’t require big investment at all. From being a reseller of a product or service to joining a multi-level marketing group, to having your own brand for beauty products, shoes, etc.

I can choose to invest P999, P99,999, or any amount in between.

I don’t encourage others to quit their permanent jobs to find their dream business because I know they would need to work harder once they start their own thing. They’ll be constantly pushed to step out of their comfort zones and for many, this is where they’ll fail. Besides, if it’s so easy then everybody will do it, right?

But if they really hate their job, or if they’re staying in a mediocre and low salary job just because they’re afraid to start something, then I advise them to take a risk. If they can start a business while enjoying the perk of a steady paycheck, very good. That’s the ideal scenario.

What’s the worst thing that can happen anyways?

You may end up closing the business. So? Can’t you start another one?
Actually, can you do several businesses at once, right?

And if you realized that entrepreneurship is not for you, I honestly believe you can go back to employment if you want to. You have the skills and the experience.

The only problem why these won’t work (the business and the return to employment) is if you lack confidence. You’re not confident that you can sell more. You’re not confident that business life is for you. You’re not confident that you can return to being an employee.

When I quit my job, I have zero monthly earnings, obviously. And I was thinking, GOOD! I’m glad that I have zero earnings because I want to be a guinea pig. For many years, I am told that the reason why I’m ‘rich’ was because I had a great job that pays me well. That’s true actually.

But in my opinion, the reason why I had a high-paying job to begin with was because I was confident I can get a high-paying job. It was my mindset that helped me earn millions in a year.

Now that I’m starting from the bottom, I can test my theory that having an abundant mindset can really make you wealthy. That’s the reason why I was so excited to return to the Philippines.

What happened after?

We came back to the Philippines in June 2019, my husband set up few businesses and I focused on doing The Wealthy Pinay while enjoying being a SAHM. I was full of excitement, motivation, and passion.

Then the pandemic hits…

My husband’s businesses were affected, and slowly our savings depleted. For someone who is used to having lots of money, having less money is a scary experience. It didn’t help that my mother-in-law passed away, too.

After many months of being scared, last December, I knew I needed to snap out of it. Being scared won’t do me any good. So I journal more. I meditated more. I harnessed my abundance mindset more.

I also started to recite new mantras:

“Earning lots of money is easy.”
”I am a money magnet.”
”Money loves me.”
”Whatever I touch turns to gold.”

When we ushered the new year, something inside me shifted. I became calmer. I worry less. And I just knew everything will shift for the better this 2021. I just knew.

It started when I was able to finally figure out how to turn my book into a digital version. I was trying to do this process for years to no avail. But in less than 1 week in January, my ebook was uploaded and published on Amazon Kindle, Rakuten Kobo, Apple Books, Google Play Books, Scribd, and other online bookstores. I was shocked at how easy it was.

The following month, I decided to take some online employment. I thought I can go back to working and do something that I’m good at. In less than a month, I found a company that pays me very well, I can work flexi-time without leaving my house, and they even provide me with life and medical insurance.

This month, a friend called me if I want to be a sub-distributor of DITO telecoms. He believes that I have the network, experience, and drive to be one. I could have said no to this opportunity because I have TWP, I’m selling jewelry, I’m the teacher of my 2 homeschooling kids, I’m a house manager, and I would sometimes help my husband with his businesses. My hands are full, to say the least.

Yet I told him, “Tell me more.” We had a zoom call that day and everything was explained. Before you know it, I’m now an official DITO sub-distributor in NCR. There is really no big investment involved. I just have to be strategic and hands-on.

Why am I telling you this?

Because I want to remind you that opportunities are everywhere…

Will I earn more if I stayed in my old job? Sure.
But do I regret quitting? NOT AT ALL. I won’t trade the contentment I’m enjoying now doing what I love most. Sure, all the things I’m currently doing are not easy. They’re constantly pushing me to step out of my comfort zone. I do many things for the first time. I’m second-guessing my decisions most of the time YET I love it.

And I know, my previous employment income will be my business income in the coming months (if not more!). Some people may call it cockiness. Others may call it confidence. I call it FAITH. A deep, unwavering faith that we do have a very generous God that wants us to be successful and thrive. Faith that everything will happen in His perfect time. Faith in myself that I can excel at all the tasks I put my mind to.

Be careful though…

Not because opportunities are everywhere means that you should grab them all. Not all opportunities are equal. At the same time, you should know your money personality before jumping into any kind of commitment. If you’re an introvert, an opportunity that are more suited for extroverts will drain you in the long run. Don’t do it no matter how enticing it sounds. It’s the same advice for extroverts who are interested to do jobs that are more suited for introverts.

I’ve been asked many times to be a financial advisor for several insurance companies and I’ve always declined. Sure I can do the job and may excel on it but do I really want to sell insurance? The honest answer is no.

It’s the same thing with the other business opportunities being offered to me. I don’t want to sell all the products in the market. I can but I don’t like.

Freedom of choice is one kind of freedom that I truly value. I quit my job because I want to focus on being a mom, doing The Wealthy Pinay, and earn lots of money doing what I want.

“Earning lots of money is easy.”

For others, what I’m doing now is too much and complicated. They’re not easy. The thing is, they’re easy for me.

The same thing that I won’t venture to baking and anything related to arts and crafts because these tasks are sooo complex, time-consuming, and draining for me. For others (like my sister Jhoanna), they are easy to do.

Don’t take forever figuring out if an opportunity is for you or not. Remember that the Universe loves fast action-takers. If it’s not for you, let go and be open to receive new ones.

If an opportunity came that excites you more than it scares you, take the risk. 
Start before you’re ready.
