Doing Magic

1. Your innate power is hidden by negativity and limiting beliefs.

Somewhere, deep down, your greatness is sitting…and waiting.

You are powerful. You possess an immense, divine power capable of creating your reality. This isn't a delusion but an underlying truth about your potential. It's not limited by age, background, education, or appearance.

Obstacles obscure power. This inherent greatness is currently hidden from view. It's buried under layers of unhelpful beliefs, negative societal messages, worry, and negative thinking. These external and internal factors prevent you from recognizing and utilizing your true capabilities.

Rediscover your birthright. The journey to manifesting isn't about acquiring new abilities but rediscovering what's already within you. By clearing away the "garbage" of negativity and limiting thoughts, you can begin to reclaim your powerful birthright and awaken from the "sleep" you've been living in.

2. Clear negativity and cultivate gratitude to awaken your Magic.

Complaining just invites more into your life to complain about because complaining means wanting things to be different.

Negativity blocks flow. Complaining, worrying, and focusing on the negative are rampant in society and act as significant blocks to manifestation. These habits keep you in a state of wanting things to be different, which is the opposite of having. To change your life, you must first stop this constant negativity.

Gratitude shifts focus. Practicing gratitude is a powerful way to counteract negativity and raise your energy. By consciously focusing on the good things in your life, no matter how small, you shift your perspective and begin to feel content and accepting of the present moment. This feeling of having, rather than wanting, attracts more good things.

Start small, build momentum. Commit to stopping complaining entirely and start a daily gratitude practice. Write down three things you're grateful for morning and evening, genuinely feeling the emotion. This simple act, done consistently, will naturally raise your energy and begin to change your outlook and circumstances.

3. Manifesting success is primarily about receiving, not just asking.

Successfully manifesting is less about asking for things, less about doing Magic and almost entirely about receiving, in other words, becoming, allowing and being Magic.

Asking is simple. The process of Magic has two steps: Ask and Receive. While most people focus intensely on the asking part, trying various techniques like visualization or affirmations, this is actually the least important step. Almost everyone is good at asking, but few know how to truly receive.

Receiving is key. The crucial part of Magic is the receiving state. As soon as you ask for something, your primary job is to get out of the way and move into receiving. If you don't master receiving, your asking will yield little to no results.

Become the Magic. Magic isn't something separate from you that you simply "do" or "utilize." It is something you are. Therefore, becoming the person who can receive your desires is far more important than perfecting asking techniques. When you become Magic, your life changes effortlessly.

4. Constant wanting signifies lack and blocks your desires.

Want is another word for lack.

Wanting creates lack. When you constantly think about something you want, especially something you want desperately, you are focusing on its absence from your life. This intense wanting highlights and reinforces your current state of lack. Thoughts of wanting attract more wanting and more lack, creating a cycle that prevents manifestation.

Asking keeps you stuck. Continually asking for your desire keeps you firmly in the "asking" stage, preventing you from moving into the essential "receiving" stage. It's like constantly placing an order without ever allowing the delivery to happen. This constant attention can actually keep the goal just out of reach.

Letting go allows. Often, desires manifest only when you stop thinking about them or wanting them so intensely. This happens because letting go of the desperate wanting allows you to shift out of the state of lack and into a state where receiving is possible. The Universe responds to your state of being, not just your thoughts.

5. Your deeply held beliefs shape your entire reality.

Your experience of life comes from what you believe.

Beliefs are powerful. While "thoughts become things" is a common mantra, it's your deeply held beliefs that have the greatest impact on your life. Beliefs inform your thoughts, feelings, actions, and overall energy. They determine the type of person you are, and your world reflects that person.

Beliefs create experience. You don't simply believe what you see; you see what you already believe. Your beliefs act as a filter, shaping how you perceive and experience reality. If you believe you are unlucky, you will notice and interpret events in a way that confirms that belief.

Change beliefs, change world. By consciously working to change your core beliefs, you can fundamentally alter your reality. This isn't just a metaphorical change but a literal one. Advanced Magic is rooted in the conviction that your beliefs create your world, making changing beliefs as impactful as changing your physical actions.

6. Build powerful belief by actively seeking evidence of your Magic.

Every success, no matter how small, will grow your belief in your own ability.

Belief grows slowly. Cultivating a strong belief in your magical ability and the manifestation process takes time and effort. It's not about instantly deciding to believe but gradually building conviction. Every small success, every instance where things work out in your favor, serves as evidence that strengthens your belief.

Notice the evidence. To accelerate belief, actively look for signs that your desires are manifesting or that things are working out for you. Keep an "evidence journal" and record every tiny fortuitous event, interpreting it as proof of your growing power. This counters skepticism with tangible examples from your own life.

Ignore contradictory evidence. When things don't seem to be going right, consciously choose to see them as stepping stones or necessary detours rather than failures. Your interpretation of events is key. By focusing on evidence that supports your desired belief and explaining away contradictions, you reinforce the new belief until it becomes a strong conviction.

7. Apparent setbacks are merely stepping stones to greater things.

Every ‘disaster’ contains the seed of something wonderful and who knows whether that apparent disaster is a stepping stone to success?

No true setbacks. In the realm of Advanced Magic, there are no genuine disasters or setbacks. Every challenging event, every apparent misfortune, can be viewed as a necessary step on the path to something better. This perspective is crucial for maintaining the receiving state.

Snap-backs are signs. Sometimes, when you manifest something big before you are truly ready (before you have become the person who fits that manifestation), it can "snap back," leading to loss or failure. However, even these painful experiences are evidence that Magic is working and can serve as powerful lessons for deepening your understanding and ability.

Choose your interpretation. You have the power to choose how you interpret events. Instead of labeling something as "bad" or "wrong," look for the potential positive outcome or the lesson it offers. By consistently viewing challenges as stepping stones, you maintain trust and stay in alignment with the flow of Magic.

8. Letting go and trusting fully unlocks the receiving state.

When I make the decision to trust, absolutely and completely, I accept that everything, everything is working out just right.

Receiving is non-wanting. The receiving state is best described as a state of non-wanting or non-yearning. It's about being content and accepting of the present moment, without desperately needing things to be different. This state radiates "having" rather than "lack."

Trust facilitates receiving. Accessing this state can be achieved through concepts like trust, surrender, or simply relaxing into the feeling that everything is okay. When you truly trust that your desires are being taken care of, you release the need to push, strive, or worry, which are all forms of wanting.

Experiment to find your way. The word or concept that triggers this state is personal. "Trust" works for some, "surrender" for others, or simply imagining a helpful guide handling things. Experiment to find what resonates with you and brings about a feeling of relief, calmness, and acceptance. This feeling is your indicator that you are entering the receiving state.

9. Become the person you desire to be, and life will follow.

You must become the person you want to be first and life will reflect right back at you with all the good things befitting that person.

Life reflects you. Your external world is a direct reflection of your internal state – the person you are, your beliefs, your energy, and your predominant feelings. Expecting your life to change without changing yourself is like looking in a mirror and waiting for the reflection to smile first.

Act the part. To become the person who has your desires, start acting, talking, and thinking as if you already possess them. This isn't about faking it but subtly shifting your behaviors and mindset to align with your desired future self.

• Dress the part (within your means)
• Go to places that person would go
• Adopt their habits and perspectives

Work on the whole package. Don't just focus on manifesting isolated things. Work on becoming the complete person you aspire to be. This holistic approach ensures that when manifestations arrive, they fit seamlessly into your life and are less likely to "snap back."

10. Advanced Magic is being completely okay with everything that happens.

The perfect receiving state is one of utter trust that things are working out, of complete conviction in your Magical ability, of not wanting to change a single thing about that present moment...

Ultimate acceptance. The pinnacle of Advanced Magic is reaching a state of being completely and absolutely okay with anything and everything that unfolds. This means accepting events without judgment, seeing them as perfect as they are, even if they don't match your initial desires.

Fear dissolves. When you are okay with the worst possible outcome, you eliminate fear. This state of fearlessness is incredibly powerful and keeps you firmly in the receiving state, where manifestations flow effortlessly. It's not about being emotionless but about choosing trust and acceptance over worry and resistance.

Effortless creation. When you achieve this level of acceptance and trust, you stop needing to force or control outcomes. You set your intention (or simply exist in a state of positive expectation) and allow life to unfold, knowing that everything is working out perfectly for you. This is where the most spectacular and unexpected Magic occurs.
