I've had a lot of insane manifestation success stories that seem almost like they're right out of the movie. The secret, and you like rub the genie and then some really weird, cool stuff happens in your life. And I wasn't really someone that grew up spiritual or religious. I certainly never heard about the power of the mind. I didn't even know what quantum physics was until one day,
I was scrolling the internet on my phone and in my dorm. I was trying to figure out the secrets of the Universe or something. And I've had some really cool things happen because I suspended my disbelief. I did some thought experiments to see what I could attract into my life. The The Bob Proctor Passing helped me to realize his teachings.
So in this video, I'm gonna be sharing a couple of those crazy manifestation success stories. I'm also gonna be sharing a couple of techniques that you can start to use to have some really cool things attract into your life.
Manifestation Success Stories: Chicken Soup For The Soul
The first story is about meeting Jack. Canfield, the creator of the chicken soup for the soul series. I was 20 in this story and I had dropped out of college. I packed around the world. I wrote a book about it and I was, it was a spiritual kind of inspirational travel book. I was trying to make it as an author. I was a big fan of Jack Canfield who created the Chicken Soup For The Soul series, which was sold over 500 million copies.
I was about ready to have a self-published book come out. I was self-publishing cause all the publishing companies told me, no, and everyone said it wouldn't be successful. And it was a bad idea. So I was trying to figure out, well, how the heck do you sell a bunch of copies of books? I bought this program called Dare To Win from Jack Canfield, which was an audio program.
Make A List of 101 Things You Want To Attract
One of the exercises that he talked about was to make a list of 101 things you want to attract and create in your life. And number four on my list was to meet, become friends with, and be endorsed by Jack Canfield. I had no idea how that was gonna happen. I mean, I didn't know him. I was just some kid sitting here, renting a room out of somebody's house, trying to figure out how to have my book on bookshelves next to him. And long story short, I ended up through this crazy story.
I had a speaking coach helping me out and she said, Jack Canfield was gonna be speaking at this event. And she's like, you gotta come to this event. It was in Los Angeles and I lived in California and that's a far drive and it was at this big gala ballroom with thousands of people there.
Preparing For The Battle
So I didn't think I'd be able to meet him, but I decided to buy a ticket. So I'm in one of those moods where I'm like, should I be here? Should I not be here? So I threw on my best thrift store, a $7 blazer, and I was ready for battle. And so I got to this event, I realized there are thousands of people here. There's no way I'm gonna meet him. My seat is at the top level. And the crazy story goes on for hours where he's emptying this event to thousands of people.
So there's no way I'm gonna meet him other than this line where you could like get an autograph and a photo, but that's not gonna work. And so finally he says, they're gonna take a break for dinner. I rushed from my top-level seat down to the ballroom floor.
Being Caught Up In The Moment
I went over and I introduced myself to him and I said, “Hi, I'm Jake Ducey. I wrote this book. Here's how you inspired me.” And I told him all about it. He was standing in front of his table waiting for dinner. And I was so caught up in the moment. I didn't realize the seat to his left was empty. So the waiter comes over, puts his food on the table. I don't want to be one of those weirdos. That's like standing over him while he is eating.
And so what are you eating? Is that rice or are those beans, you know, can you gimme some secrets? So I was just gonna end the conversation and I was like, well, thank you. It's nice to meet you. And he says, are you gonna eat that? Cuz the waiter put the food at the seat to the left of him where no one was sitting anymore. I told him, well, are you inviting me to sit here? He said Yeah. So I ended up sitting here, turns out his wife and my mom went to high school together. And then we ended up, that's how I met Jack Canfield many years ago.
Then I ended up selling over 10,000 copies out of a trunk on my car to that self-published book. So then I got a book deal with Penguin Random House, the number one English publishing company in the world. As a 22-year-old, Jack Canfield wrote the forward to that book. That was how insane my manifestation success story number one happened.
Manifestation Success Stories: Wealth Consciousness
Now, insane manifestation story number two is, I wanted Bob Proctor to be my mentor, one of my favorite speakers and authors. And so that was one of my visions that I wanted to attract into my life. I learned so much about the subconscious mind from Bob Proctor. So I started hypnotizing myself and if you've ever listened to one of my videos, I always talk about my free success hypnosis.
If you want to use it, it's a link where you can download my free success hypnosis and start to use it every day to reprogram your mind, your old limiting beliefs in your subconscious mind and to them. So you can turn your subconscious mind into a magnet for what you want. I'm working on that in my life. Like I'm trying to do that and I want to be mentored by Jack, by Bob Proctor and get to know Bob now, Crazy story is through meeting Jack Canfield on the first story.
Synchronicities Happen For A Reason
And my division was in Penguin TarcherPerigree and ironically, Penguin TarcherPerigree happened to Bob Proctor. I found out that my literary agent, William Gladstone also represented Bob Proctor. All these synchronicities happen. Right? And so I was able to get my book agent to set me up with an interview with Bob Proctor. And it was just like this quick little 20-minute interview. He didn't have much time, you know, Bob Proctor is a busy guy.
I studied Bob Proctor all the time. And I know that one of his favorite lines in the favorite stories thinking to grow rich book because Bob Proctor read it like 10 million times. He can recite it forward and backward. He teaches all about it, about wealth consciousness. And one of the stories that he likes is when Andrew Carnegie gave Napoleon Hill the supposed assignment to write the book.
Catch You At The Post And Pass You At The Grandstand
And what ended up happening was Napoleon Hill didn't think he could do it. So Andrew Carnegie gave him a statement. At the time Andrew Carnegie was the richest person in the world. The statement was something like “Andrew Carnegie, I want to not only equal your accomplishment in life, but I will catch you at the post and pass you at the grandstand”.
He was supposed to say it in front of the mirror, like 10 or 20 times a day until he started to believe it. And so I did this 20-minute interview with Bob and I was like this 21-year-old kid. I did this interview with Bob and I'm like, okay, thank you so much for your time. We ended recording. And Bob's like, “Well, Jake, that was a great interview”.
Like nice to meet you guy. And I was like, “Bob Proctor, I will not only, uh, equal your accomplishments in life. I will catch you at the post and I will pass you at the grandstand”. And he just started cracking up and he thought it was so funny. So he gave me a cell phone number and that was how I met Bob Proctor, who has ended up as one of the most influential personal friends now I would call in my entire life.
Always Brainwash Yourself Before The World Brainwashes You
So these insane manifest stories, I could make 10,000 hours just on these over and over and over again. And I think the next iteration of that success came when I started programming myself, cuz I always say brainwash yourself before the world brainwashes you. And that I'm not telling you to get my successive notice for no reason. I'm saying to get it because you have to brainwash yourself for the world. So it's in the description right there down below. It's my free success OSIS.
Now I could go on and on about all these insane manifestation stories. So if you like this, give me a comment down below and maybe I'll make a series and I'll share hundreds of all these stories. So let me know in the comments section if you enjoy this. Last but not least, this is my book in the South Korean language. This is the first book that I dropped out of college and I self-published in South Korea.
You could see a close-up of it. My book is about dropping out of college that everyone said wouldn't work out. And the insane manifestation success stories about that is I would imagine every day that my books were translated in other languages and people were seeing them and getting them all over the world. It always seemed like a crazy idea, but I did it anyway.
Suspend Your Disbelief And Just Play The Game
And that's why I'm asking you just suspend your disbelief, just play the game. Just like Jack Canfield said, “Dare to Win”. That was his audio program. I wasn't sure if I believed that I could actually meet Jack Canfield, Bob Proctor, and get published by the biggest publishing company in the world. I also had my books translated into other languages. I said it would be nice, but I didn't know if I could do it.
I suspended my disbelief and I actually did the exercises, did the techniques. I actually had the courage and went after it. I detached my consciousness from my senses and imagined a new reality of myself as this big author, reaching people all over the world. And it happened because as Bob says, whatever you can see in your mind, you can hold in your hands. So here's just a couple of my insane manifestation success stories.
So hopefully this is inspiring and hope it invites you to suspend your disbelief and start putting new pictures and images in your minds. You can create them in your life.
