Success and Miracles: Ask Nick Arandes

Hi Friend,

Let's take a look at your email now.

> Thank you for these inspiring words.
> I sure needed them to help me reframe my mind.
> I must admit that I am having a dilemma here.
> I have yet to see some noticeable results -
> at least as I understand them to be.

That usually happens when people have an expectation attached to things. And for the most part, some of those expectations are coming from a place of fear.

The "what if" syndrome. But what if you could stay in the present, not letting your mind get ahead of itself and trust that whatever is happening, is happening in divine order for your highest good?

Here is an example Friend so you can see what I mean. When the Manifesting Miracles Course was created, I was about to loose the place I was staying at, and did not have any money coming in either. In other words, that divine inspiration that expressed through me, came in moments when I needed a miracle the most.

See. When Neale Donald Walsch wrote Conversations With God he was hitting some of the lowest points in his life. Yet the information has not changed. He is a millionaire now, but when the information was channeled through him he was broke, sick, and loosing his family.

DON'T BE CONCERNED! The point I am trying to make is, your life is working in perfect order just at it is, and it is leading you closer to your highest dreams if you simply trust the process.

And just because the illusion of the physical world seems as if there are no resources, keep in mind that the resources are in energy form waiting to be converted into physical form, if you simply raise your vibration.

What you focus on expands right? It is okay to pray for money as if you are praying for a house or other things. It is okay to love, appreciate money.

One of the biggest challenges people face in the realm of manifesting money is that the fear of not having it is what keeps them stuck. And I understand how you feel and appreciate you sharing that with me.

There is a story told about a couple who had so many concerns about the bills pilling up and loosing everything they had that when they finally did loose what they had and felt a sense of release, then they were able to attract into their space what they wanted because the energy of fear was gone.

Here is what I mean Friend. Look at all the bills you have and don't be afraid of summarizing them.

Now be grateful for the fact that they have served you. From this point on, begin imagining what it would feel like if they were all paid right now. Keep your focus on money coming into your life.

You can even give it a number. $5,000, $10,000? DO NOT attach yourself to the amount, simply imagine what is like having that amount of money coming into your life from expected and unexpected sources.

Whatever you are praying for, remember that you are NOT asking for anything. You are simply being grateful for what you already have. The $5,000, $10,000, $50,000, the million. Whatever the number is. An effective prayer is a prayer of gratitude not supplication like most people are taught to pray.

In the meantime, keep working on your book or seminar, whatever you are inspired to work on because by feeling good as a result of working on inspiration, two things are happening simultaneously.

1) By setting your intention, the universe is working on it.

2) By placing our attention on your work, you are actually releasing the idea about the money, while at the same time you are in a state of passionate good feelings.

Now, listen to what you are guided to do, notice the synchronicities that are taking place in your life, most importantly trust.

> however; with the weight of bills

Staying positive in the myth of chaos means that you are not allowing a lot of the external circumstances affect you.

Let me ask you, what could you do to help you remember the fact that you are the powerful creator of your universe? Aside from my Manifesting Miracles Course?

You could watch the Movie The Secret?

Are there any authors you feel inspired by? What kind of things you listen to while driving to and from work?

Don't think that because I created the Videos I am someone who does not find himself dealing with the same challenges any other human being deals with.

As I shared on my third video, when I deal with times where I can feel my energy dropping a little, maybe because of something that might have happened that have caught me off guard, even when I know that I am the one creating everything in my reality, I would listen, read and/or watch things that help remind me of the powerful being that I am.

Also I would keep my awareness on the task at hand that allows me to stay in the present moment. By doing so, it is like allowing the universe to work on the intention I set out to create without the intervention of any fearful thoughts that could arise from the mind. As I am typing this email, my mind is focus on this process.

Dr. Deepak Chopra once said that when the mind is focused on an outcome you are no longer in the process. But when the mind is present in the process the outcome is guaranteed! So whatever outcome you are desiring is guaranteed granted you stay focused on the process.

To summarize this whole email that could go on forever, since I LOVE to share about this kinds of things;

-you are creating everything in your reality so you have the power to change it!

-everything is happening in your life for your highest good which soon you'll be able to appreciate

-right this moment the universe have all the wealth an abundance ready to give it to you, all you need to do is be open to receive it. And that is the work you are doing.

-Let go a trust! Keep doing what inspire you the most!

-Become excited for miracles that are taking place. Just because you cannot understand what is going on, there is Someone or Something who does, and is always looking for your well being.

So be grateful for what you are going through while keeping your focus on where you are going to without attachments!

As you keep getting better and better at trusting, the time will come where there is nothing for you to fear. You will happily welcome the unknown, once you have convinced yourself that you are taken care of!

There was a time I thought I knew what I wanted. Now that I know that I don't know what I want, I simply ask the universe to use me, interesting enough, the creativity keeps pouring, my life becomes more and more exciting, and the things that show up in my life are better than the ones I thought I wanted.

Without being misunderstood, there are material things I am giving some attention, however I am just not attached to them.

My full attention is on touching lives by doing the work I came here to do! By touching enough lives the financial resources will continue to show up.

You have created a reality for yourself and now, as you open yourself to allow the universe to use you and inspire you, yes there will be some changes. Some may seem scary. However, as you trust more and more, and take that leap, you'll see that there was nothing to be concerned.
