If I’ve wanted this goal for so long, then why hasn’t it happened yet?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.

Neagle Code Question

David,

When people ask me what I want, I find myself stumbling with the answer to that question as if I might answer it wrong. However, I do know a few things… I know I want a bigger home. I know I want to be debt free. I know I want to travel and give my kids some amazing experiences, but I can’t seem to bring in the money I think I need to have and do all those things. So, part of me wonders why, if I’ve wanted these things for so long, haven’t they happened yet. Can you help me understand what’s going on here?

Neagle Code Answer

Sure! Let’s do a quick check in three different areas that affect your ability to manifest what you want.

Any time that you’re choosing something that you want in life, whether you are writing affirmations, a mission statement, creating a vision board, setting goals or intentions, you need to get a very clear idea of what it is that you want, and write it down in the present tense, as though you already have it.

For example, “I want to buy a beautiful house in the country” becomes “I am buying a beautiful house in the country.

Once your thought is clear, you need to make sure that your emotions are as well.

Look at your written goal or desire and ask yourself, “Do I believe that I can get or have that thing I want?

If your desire is more of a fairytale that you would love to have, but don’t really believe you’re going to get, you need to throw that paper away and start again with, “What do I really believe I can get?

If you don’t believe you can have what you want, Spirit doesn’t believe it either.

And since Spirit works deductively, it can only send back to you in manifest form what you actually believe.

And finally, look at the goal you wrote down and ask yourself: “Is this just something that I think I can accomplish, or is it something that I really want? Does it stir my soul and inspire me?

When I first started doing goal setting for myself, I made the mistake that most people do. I started picking things that I thought I could accomplish, which was really based out of past experience and not what I really wanted in my heart, not something that excited me or gave me any kind of vision for my future.

Therefore nothing changed. The energy behind the picture was of the past, so nothing changed.

As you can see, there’s a very delicate balance that must take place in order for you to work what most people would consider miracles into your life.

Your desire can’t be too much in your past, and it can’t be too far into your future either. It needs to help you grow while remaining within your belief system.

How do I dig myself out of the mess I created?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.

Neagle Code Question

David,

I’m a bit embarrassed to admit this, but I’ve made some bad decisions. Without going into too much detail, I’m now in a place where I have bill collectors calling. I am doing everything I can to think differently about my situation, but I’m just not seeing how I can turn this around. Any idea how I can dig my way out of the mess I created?

Neagle Code Answer

First off, don’t be embarrassed…that shame just keeps you stuck in the patterns.

Second, realize the power of the Universal Law of Choice I mentioned in a previous blog post.

The amazing thing about choice is that it also gives you the chance to change the consequences of your past poor actions or decisions.

For instance, if you go broke and bill collectors are calling, you can’t change those facts in the moment.

But you can change how you respond to those circumstances and what you choose in the future. You can renegotiate your terms and learn from your mistakes for instance.

So while it’s true that, in response to your message, bags of money won’t suddenly fall in your lap, bags of opportunity will show up in your life.

In the long run, this is far better for you, your business, and your personal and spiritual development.

So the question is:

Will you accept the opportunity?

Will you accept the manifestation of the message that you sent to Spirit?

Why your desire will show up as “opportunity”

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Dan B.

Neagle Code Question

David,

Admittedly, I’m a little new to Universal law, but it seems a little simplistic to me that all I have to do to get what I want is to align my head, heart and actions, as if bags of money will fall in my lap if only I can be in alignment. Is that what you are suggesting in the answer to your previous blog post?

Thanks David!

Neagle Code Answer

Hi Dan, and thanks for the question!

As I said in my previous answer, when you send a signal, whether clear or not, Spirit reciprocates that message back into your life exactly as it receives it. Clear messages manifest according to what you want; confused or mixed messages not so much.

Now, you have to understand how that message is manifested in your life. This is an area where people get really confused, and I think it answers the main question you’re asking.

Spirit can only reciprocate your message in the form of opportunity.

Why is that? Why can’t bags of money just fall into your lap?

The answer is the Law of Choice.

The great gift of the Law of Choice is that we choose everything that comes into our life. This means that no one can put anything into your life. You choose it all.

The flip side is that we are required to choose everything that comes into our life.

And opportunity gives you the imperative to do just that.

For example, if you’ve sent a clear request to Spirit for more money, and that money fell in your lap, there’s not much choice involved in gathering it up. You don’t grow as a human being or serve a broader purpose.

But if you get to talking to the person next to you in line and find out that she needs exactly what you do, your clear wish for more money has reciprocated in the form of an opportunity, in this case, a hot prospect.

You then exercise your choice by either following up and getting a new client, which improves both of your lives, or you squander the opportunity.

Make sense?

Can I manifest money to pay off debt?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.

Neagle Code Question

Hi David,

You've mentioned the law: “If you have a strong enough desire for something, the money MUST be there.” Please say more about how this works. For instance, if I SHOULD manifest enough money to pay off debt, does this mean that I don't DESIRE it enough to manifest the money because it's more of a “should”? Or, in another case, if I really, really desire the $50,000 car I saw drive by me yesterday, am I likely to manifest the money more readily? How does a “should” versus a “desire” affect manifestation?

Neagle Code Answer

Thanks for this great question!

Most people aren’t excited about paying debt, but that doesn’t mean the money isn’t there. I recommend paying off your debt AND buying the car.

Your goals should allow you to accomplish ANYTHING you want, and if paying off your debt and purchasing a new car is what you want, that’s the goal you should be setting.

However, you don’t need to focus on paying all your debt at once. There’s nothing wrong with paying it off in increments. You don’t want to make paying off that debt a hardship for yourself, or you’ll come to resent it, and that opens up a new problem. Make sure you don’t sacrifice everything to pay it off.

The only flip side to your “desire and should” question has to do with shame.

If you have shame around your debt, if you’re embarrassed by it, or try to hide it, you will have a difficult time manifesting the money needed to pay it off.

Why?

Because how you do anything is how you do everything, and if you’re experiencing shame, it will prevent you from doing the things necessary to manifest the money.

So if you can’t see that debt is simply a tool and be grateful for it and truly appreciate what it’s provided to you, you may want to take a long hard look as to how you actually feel about the debt.

Once you drop the shame and negative feelings around it, you’ll be surprised how much easier it will be to manifest the money to pay it off.

What’s the difference between meditating and manifesting?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Brandt S.

Neagle Code Question

David,

Everyone seems to be talking about the importance of meditation lately, but I have really only heard you talk about manifestation. I am confused by this, so can you please explain the difference between meditation and manifesting?

Neagle Code Answer

Hi, and thanks for your question!

Many people confuse manifesting with meditation.

Meditation is a practice of consciously choosing to center yourself, to quiet your mind and find inner peace.

Manifestation is very different.

You don’t need to meditate to manifest.

Manifestation is the continuous process of creation.

We are constantly manifesting everything in our lives at every moment. Whether it’s the pen you write with, the water you drink, the tree outside your window or the money you make; you have manifested it all.

Most of the things in your life you manifest without even being consciously aware that you’re doing it.

Where manifestation gets confusing is when people try to consciously manifest something. They think they need to say affirmations, meditate or use their will to create.

The truth is, manifestation starts with a simple idea in our brain. It could be a thought, a feeling or a picture. As soon as that enters into our awareness, our brains begin to “tune in”. And we begin to seek the opportunities to bring our idea into form.

It’s very similar to how a radio works. Think about it… There are thousands of radio waves around your head. You’re not aware of the music or sounds, because your brain lacks the ability to tune into the frequency. However, if you turn a radio on, all of a sudden you can hear the music. The radio didn’t create the music, it just simply found the frequency to bring it into form.

Our brains are like the radio. We don’t create things out of thin air. We are constantly seeking to become aware of what already exists so that we can bring our ideas, thoughts or pictures into form.

We then begin to bring our ideas into form by taking action on the opportunities that are presented to us because we are “tuned in” to the frequency of the idea we want to manifest.

Manifesting isn’t working for me. What am I missing?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from someone who wishes to remain anonymous.

Neagle Code Question

David, My ability to manifest money is in the toilet. I’ve desired, I’ve believed and I’ve acted, and yet, I’m still stuck in the same place financially I was 5 years ago. I'm not talking about spending weeks or months for the manifestation, but many years. There's obviously a lesson to be learned, but I don't know what it is. What am I missing?

Neagle Code Answer

Ah, yes. I love this question.

First, let’s all get on the same page. There are a lot of people out there who don’t actually know the meaning of manifestation. They think that manifestation is creating something from nothing. They couldn’t be further from the truth.

Manifestation is simply becoming aware of what already exists. It’s that simple.

Ben Franklin didn’t need to create electricity; he just needed to become aware that it already existed.

You are not getting your desired results because you are resisting doing something. Now, I know as soon as you read that, your mind screamed, “But I have done EVERYTHING.”

And your mind would be wrong.

Really think…

Everywhere in life there are lessons, and those lessons are designed to push us to grow, to become more conscious, to step further into the divine beings that we truly are.

The Universe will not allow you to “skip steps”…

Chances are that you haven’t received your desired results because staying exactly where you are is protecting something inside you in some way. This subconscious need to protect yourself is the reason for the resistance.

Here’s an example.

Let’s say that your desired outcome is $20,000.00 this month. You don’t know how to bring in that $20,000.00, but it is money that you really need. The way to reach that goal is already present, you are just not aware of it. (I lovingly call this a BLINDSPOT.)

However, if you really listen to your inner thoughts, the answer is apparent. It’s just that the answer may force you to face one of your fears like asking for a sale, being seen, investing in yourself, or opening yourself to possible rejection.

And so you dismiss those ideas.

What you resist will persist.

And you will not manifest, or become aware of, what it is that you desire.

Can You Push Away Negative Thoughts?

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions
for Life”
comes from Brian.

Neagle Code Question

Hi David. I heard you say many times that if you're working in a positive direction toward your desire, and then suddenly you turn negative, like, “Oh this will never happen!”, you push it away. By the same token, if you went into a negative slide and were afraid of manifesting a negative result, then stopped, turned it around to positive, would you push the negative result away?

 

Neagle Code Answer

Hi Brian!


The answer to your question is actually quite simple.

You manifest what you focus on.


Reminder: Manifest means to become aware of what already exists.


If you focus on the negative, you will then manifest negative. If you focus on positive, you will then manifest the positive.

You don’t actually push anything away, you just manifest where you focus.

Here is the key…

If you’re moving in a positive direction toward your desire, you must make sure you are conscious of your thoughts.

Don’t allow negative thoughts to enter, and if they do, don’t give them any energy.


Acknowledge them, and then tell them to get behind you…you are staying on your path regardless.


Immediately return your focus to your desire.


DO NOT try to rationalize with your negative thoughts, push them away or figure them out. By doing that you actually put your focus on the negative.


Keep your thoughts positive. For example, let’s say you’re in a cash flow crunch…


DO say to yourself: The money is here now; there is opportunity everywhere. And then take action when the opportunity presents itself.


DO NOT say to yourself: When is this cash flow issue going to end? What am I going to do if the money problem isn’t solved? In this scenario your focus is on the lack of money, not on the solution.


Focus only on what you desire and turn your back on those negative thoughts.

[Goal Setting Series]Article #8 ~ A New Way of Life

If you've taken each step in this goal-setting series, you've used fantasy to receive your prosperous goal, decided that you are ready and willing to manifest it, invested yourself emotionally in your goal, and begun to raise your level of awareness.

By now, the Universe has probably already brought you the opportunity that will lead to manifesting your goal.

As I said last time, this is where faith becomes crucial.

If your opportunity requires you to do something that you don't want to do, you may decide that things aren't all that bad after all. You don't really need the thing you said you wanted.

This is a very predictable reaction. It's just your subconscious mind trying to keep you where you are.

Your task is to keep moving forward regardless.

Here's how you do that.

Decide, Change, Adapt, Grow

First, recognize that your opportunity is meeting you one level up from where you are.

Picture yourself at the bottom of a staircase. Your goal is at the top. All the stairs in between represent each of the opportunities that you have to step up and into in order to reach your goal.

Let's say you're a filmmaker living in Des Moines, and your goal is to win an Oscar. The Universe has shown you the opportunity for your first step, which requires you to move to Los Angeles. If you like Des Moines, you might resist the change. You might feel reluctant to leave family and friends.

Yet, deep down you know it's the right move, so you step up and into the opportunity. You make the change and move to LA.

Then you have to adapt to the change, and the second you do that, you grow.

You're now standing on the second stair, and you see your next step, the opportunity that will take you to the third stair. Again, it requires you to take a risk, but your faith is stronger so you may spend less time contemplating your fear

You decide to embrace the opportunity, make the change, adapt to the change, and grow.

You then follow this same pattern all the way to the top.

Remember that you will only ever see your next step, because each one requires you to grow into its challenges before the following one can be revealed.

Also, your dream is in a constant state of transformation as well. Your goal may change as you grow. You may realize that what you really want is to make brilliant, moving films that impact people's lives, and the best way to do that may not lead to the red carpet.

No matter. You don't have to know that now. Your goal of winning an Oscar gets you on the staircase.

It starts you on a journey that represents a new way of being ~ living in faith and becoming the person you are meant to be.

That process won't ever be easy, because your subconscious mind will resist each change, but you can become comfortable being uncomfortable. I'll talk more about that next time.

In the end, however, it's absolutely worth it.

As you proceed toward your goal, you'll feel more alive, more prosperous and more of service than ever before.

[Goal Setting Series]Article #6 ~ Manifest Your Prosperous Idea

If you've been following this goal-setting series, you've identified what needs to leave and come into your environment, and you've made an unwavering commitment to your goal.

You are now ready for it to manifest.

Get Emotionally Involved

To start moving your idea from the nonphysical to the physical, you have to become emotionally involved in it.

Imagine how your project will feel when it comes to fruition. Think about it all the time. Fan your desire for it into a white-hot flame.

Why is that important?

Emotions are like the engines behind our thoughts, which by themselves are neutral.

When you imbue your idea or any thought with emotion, you send it zinging through time and space, and the Universe starts bringing you what you need to manifest it.

If you stay emotionally connected to your project, it will manifest quickly.

If you fall into doubt and recant on being willing and able, you return to ground zero. You have to start again.

I know…if you've never consciously manifested something before, it is difficult to keep the faith.

Just remember that the moment you had the idea it came into existence along with the means to manifest it.

That's the promise of the Law of Polarity.

Instant Manifestation and the Law of Polarity

The Law of Polarity states that everything in the universe has an opposite. There would be no inside to a room without an outside. Every up has a down and every down has an up.

Not only does everything have an opposite, but it is equal and opposite. If it's three feet from the floor to the top of the table, it's three feet from the top of the table down to the floor.

The opposite of a question is its answer, so when you have an idea, the way to manifest that idea is also present. They're like two different sides of the same coin.

People think that wealth and poverty are two different things, but they're not. They're just opposite sides.

This is true for any ill effect you're experiencing, whether it is debt or lack of prospects, sales or money.

If you're experiencing the opposite of the thing that you want, that thing is also around you. You just don't perceive it.

This is why instant manifestation is real. Once you can perceive it, it's already there.

Bang! It comes right into your field of vision. You have it. It's yours.

Yes, you do have to shift your perception in order to see ~ and experience ~ the other side of the coin.

I'll show you how to do that next time.
