I'd love to have you join our vibrant manifesting community today so we can share even more about intentionally manifesting and engaging with reality and continue to inspire each other . Let's start today's episode with a story . I invented my penny experiment in 2007 because I was in desperate need of money .
I was facing looming bankruptcy , 15 foreclosures and a whopping $1 million in debt , all due to an ill-advised side business that collapsed . I put I needed money badly , but I didn't have beliefs capable of manifesting it like I really wanted and needed . Positive affirmations had already left me high and dry in the past .
Using the belief-raising process , though , that I had recently invented was teaching me that manifesting new versions of reality in any area of my life required something new emotional honesty , not the manufactured feelings of positive affirmations or positive thinking . I needed money much more than I had .
That was the truth , and my desperation was as honest as I could be . So how could I possibly start manifesting a better version of reality from there , since my reality and the true feelings it was eliciting were way out of sync with my desires for money ? How could I change my energy about money while still speaking the truth about it emotionally ?
How could I manifest money without manufactured feelings about it , feelings that would not grow my beliefs about money , but rather would be like slapping a photo of a full tank of gas on top of my car's empty gas gauge ? Manifesting that question gave birth to my penny experiment .
My penny experiment taught me how to manifest specific things through what I call authentic reverse engineering , and here's how it works . Begin by consciously manifesting a penny as your first step .
Once you have spotted the penny , take it in your hand and hold it tightly Internally , sing the praises of this penny celebrating the energy it represents of financial abundance . It represents that because you have assigned that energy to it , exalt how .
This penny serves as a reminder of the quantum field's boundless abundance , unhindered creativity , the effortless simplicity of its creations and its unlimited capacity to collaborate with you , particularly in the realm of money . Simple , right , but this experiment has a profound effect on how you manifest money . Let's break my penny experiment down step by step .
Here's a step-by-step guide . Number one set your intention . Firm to yourself that you are open to receiving a penny as a symbol of abundance and effortless manifestation . Remember that it's worthless to most people , which often leads them to discard it without a second thought . So it's no stretch to manifest . Number two release attachment .
Avoid fixating on manifesting a penny or feeling a desperate need to do it . Instead , approach this manifestation with a sense of curiosity and playfulness . Trust that a penny will naturally reveal itself to you at the perfect time . Number three embrace awareness . Cultivate a heightened sense of awareness as you go about your day .
Stay present in the moment and be mindful of your surroundings . Remind yourself that pennies can be discovered virtually anywhere , both indoors and outdoors . Number four the joy of discovery . Relish in the process of finding a penny . Maintain an attitude of joy and curiosity as you navigate through your day .
Practice the belief that a penny exists and allow yourself to stumble upon it unexpectedly . Number five spotting the penny . When you manifest a penny , notice it with joy . Take a second to acknowledge the penny and recognize it as a manifestation of your desires . Number six embrace the penny . Pick up the penny and hold it tightly in your hand .
Feel its weight , texture and substance . Recognize its tangible presence and , most importantly , appreciate what it symbolizes a powerful reminder of your co-creation with the quantum field . Number seven symbolic meaning . Reflect on the energies and symbolism you've associated with the penny .
It represents abundance , potential opportunity , infinite creativity and effortless manifestation . Allow these energies to resonate within you and flow through you . And number eight sing the praises Internally . Celebrate the energy that the penny embodies . Express your gratitude and enthusiasm . Let your emotions overflow with excitement and appreciation .
Focus not on its monetary value , but on the reminder of boundless abundance and collaboration with the quantum field . Let me actually share an example of my expressions of joy as I celebrate manifesting a penny . Take note of my gratitude and affirmations , which have nothing to do with its monetary value , and use my example as inspiration for your own celebration .
When I spot a penny , I'm already celebrating as I start to pick it up and I say thank you for reminding me that abundance is child's play . Thank you for reminding me that scarcity is an illusion , one that only exists within my mind . Now , by now , I'm holding the penny in my hand . Abundance is my birthright . I continue .
Thank you for reminding me that anything is possible and that the only barriers between me and money are limiting beliefs and insufficient engagement with my life . At any given moment , you and I have the power to manifest anything . Thank you for reminding me of all this .
I also have a little song that I sing to myself after I say those gratitude statements , and it goes like this Thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you , thank you .
Now I just sing that to myself I don't usually sing it out loud and I want to say who am I thanking ? The universe , me , the God within me , both of us .
Now , moving on to number nine , sustaining the energy and this is an important part of this experiment , because it feels great Feel the buzzing energy within you and strive to maintain it for as long as possible . You are genuinely aligned with , and grateful for , money , even if you haven't attained your desired amount .
Let this elevated energy align you with abundance , creativity , possibility , ease and success . And number ten continuous alignment . Allow your connection to the quantum field's infinite creativity to flourish throughout your day . Utilize this energy to manifest money and abundance in all its forms . Maintain your alignment and engagement with the energies of manifestation .
Number eleven apply to other desires . Recognize that this technique can be applied to any desire . Identify a suitable token or symbol that represents your aspiration . It should be easy to manifest and genuinely celebratable . Use the same process described above , adapting it to the symbolism of your chosen token .
The key is to embrace this process with joy , gratitude and a childlike sense of playfulness . Trust in the manifestation process and believe that you have the power to co-create with the quantum field . Here's a story about my recent use of my penny experiment . My wife and I just took our entire family on vacation to a house on the beach for a week .
During our stay on Tuy B Island , georgia , I had a lot of fun manifesting pennies . I manifested 16 pennies actually , plus a nickel . Over the course of seven days I manifested them in parking lots , stores and shops , and even manifested one on a sandy roadside .
Most of my penny manifestations occurred in front of family members , who all know how much I love to manifest pennies , so that was a lot of fun too , and as a bonus , they all got to watch me manifest pennies in real time . In fact , my mom got into the act too , manifesting a dime in the ocean surf of all places .
My penny experiment made our vacation more fun , and here are four simple reasons why my penny experiment is so fun and also so simple and easy . Number one manifesting a penny is an effortless triumph . Is there anything simpler to manifest than a penny ?
Keep in mind , of course , that a penny alone won't fulfill your financial desires , so there's absolutely no need to feel pressure when it comes to finding one . It's inconsequential if you glance down and there happens to be no penny in sight . Release any attachment and return to the practice of knowing that you can and will manifest a penny .
Attracting something as easily attainable with energetic significance , surpassing its monetary value , perfectly embodies the concept of low hanging fruit . It grants you immediate and genuine success , directly linked to bringing forth more of what you desire . Furthermore , manifesting a penny contributes to the overall effectiveness of your manifestation abilities .
Each time you achieve it , your confidence and your capacity to shape reality according to your desires strengthens just a little bit while you amplify your connection to the energy not financial abundance . Manifesting a penny is a little like having easy access to complementary shots of prosperity espresso . And number two , the power of authentic gratitude in manifestation .
When it comes to manifesting , nothing fuels the process quite like genuine gratitude . Authentic celebration often guarantees the attraction of desired outcomes , because true gratitude arises when you are already in possession of what you seek . This technique is an example of reverse engineering based on those principles .
By embracing authentic gratitude and sincere celebration , which you are doing by celebrating what the penny represents , even before manifesting something truly desired , you enhance your opportunity to manifest it immediately , as if you are already living that reality . This assistance is invaluable , particularly in areas of your life where you have experienced disappointment .
What a penny represents is truly worth celebrating , as it serves as a reminder of the quantum fields boundless and infinite creativity , abundance , power , collaboration , potential , knowledge and possibilities . You can always genuinely celebrate a penny for embodying these qualities . It is a rational and appropriate demonstration of gratitude directed towards your penny .
Number three manifesting a penny is a pathway to greater wealth . While this technique may center around pennies , its impact on the energy surrounding money extends to attracting larger sums .
Your actions , ideas , attitudes and focus toward drawing money into your life will become more inspired , ultimately leading to the manifestation of far greater wealth than a mere scent , the act of intentionally manifesting a coin holds tremendous power . It serves as a tangible experience that your subconscious mind cannot dismiss , due to its authenticity .
Of course , manifesting the amount of money you truly desire necessitates more than just a penny . However , the purpose of this technique is not to accumulate wealth one cent at a time . Instead , it enables you to engage with money and even life in ways that are more inspired and aligned .
Through this engagement , penny service catalysts guiding you towards actions , ideas , attitudes and focus that have a greater potential for success in relation to money . And four manifesting a penny is a timeless practice . Manifesting a penny is a practice that transcends time and place . It can be done anywhere , at any given moment .
The possibility of finding a penny is ever present , making it believable and attainable as a manifestation . Moreover , manifesting a penny serves as an excellent exercise in honing your manifesting abilities . Once you master the art of manifesting a penny , you open the door to manifesting a wide array of other specific desires .
Just like with weightlifting , your muscles become stronger through constant repetitions , and manifesting a penny enhances your manifesting muscles . As you become more proficient in this practice , your manifesting muscles grow stronger . The ability to manifest on command requires a strong and unique connection with the quantum field .
The skills you develop while manifesting pennies are transferable to manifesting virtually anything else that is similarly attainable . The process of manifesting something specific is a personal one . Manifesting an object on command , in this case a penny , involves finding for you where the delicate balance exists between needing to see it and allowing yourself to see it .
Manifesting on demand entails navigating that fine line between demanding its presence and allowing its presence to bring you joy . And , as with anything else , practice makes perfect . Now , where is the best place to manifest a penny ?
The answer , I hope you will agree , is a public fountain , because you already know there will be pennies in a public fountain , thrown in there by people making wishes or seeking good luck . So when you manifest a penny in a public fountain , does that count ? Of course it does .
It's simply easier there , because you already believe pennies are there , you're still manifesting them . Yes , you will manifest pennies out of the blue . You will find them in unexpected places just at the perfect time , and never overlook the value of circumstances where it's easier for you to believe a penny could be there .
When you're manifesting something specific , especially something you really want and you haven't been experiencing as you really want , start with low hanging fruit . Start by manifesting images of money and advertisements , if you need to , and look in places where people commonly reach into their pockets and pull things out , like ticket booths , kiosks or cash registers .
I mentioned my mom manifested a dime in the ocean surf at Tybee Island . I mean , who would have thought that ? Right , that's an amazing manifestation . I manifested three pennies in a Whole Foods self checkout area . Now , who would be surprised by that ? Right , we were both playing the penny experiment .
I've been known to even pick up pennies from fountains and internally sing and celebrate them , but I put them back after I celebrate when they come out of a fountain .
