I manifested my dream life and learned this
18 actionable lessons

Did you think manifesting your dream life was going to be easy?
I did.
I’ve spent over 20 years studying the great teachers, and eventually manifested the life of my dreams… but my gosh, has it been a challenge.
I really wish I could have done things smoother to speed up results.
So to help your manifestation journey 10x easier and quicker, here are 18 lessons about manifestation I wish I had known sooner.
Lesson 1:
My family and I were living in a 2 bedroom apartment barely paying the bills, and yet had a vision of manifesting our dream house with a tennis court because as a full time tennis coach, I was sick and tired of waiting for hours to secure a court at the park, only to be chased off by city officials.
We had NO IDEA how we could do this… house prices in LA are high, and to find one with a tennis court is next to impossible.
Then, COVID hits, and all of the tennis courts were locked down, I had no way to earn income.
But our vision never wavered.
One day I got a phone call from a student who met a woman I coached over a decade ago on HER own tennis court..
They discovered they both knew me, he told her I needed a court to coach on, and she said to call her.
I did. We had an amazing conversation. And she said I could coach on her court anytime I wanted.
I thanked her… and jokingly told her to repay her, one day we’d buy the house from her.
She didn’t think it was a joke, and proceeded to make us an offer to acquire the house we couldn’t turn down.
We now live in the house. And our life has changed forever.
So Lesson #1 is, you have NO IDEA how something is going to manifest.
If you’re clear about your intentions, you stay in a positive state no matter what happens, and keep taking inspired action… Your dreams will manifest too.
Lesson #2:
In my 20’s I was usually either smoking weed or playing video games.
And my energy was in the gurgler, as Stuart Wilde would say.
Then one day I heard about an exercise called “My Perfect Average Day”.
The idea is you can’t be a hooligan EVERY day…
But there was this hypothetical day, that if you had to live the rest of your life… you’d be pretty happy.
So I wrote out My Perfect average day in a ton of detail.
I wrote how I felt in the morning. What I was thinking about. I even wrote about the delicious aroma of coffee beans brewing as I walked down my staircase to prepare for the day..
I went crazy… and just put everything in that I wanted… and I filled up 9 pages.
Then I recorded it in my own voice, and started to listen to it every day.
I’d get into the feeling of already being in my dream home… already being with my soulmate… already having a nice car.
A few years later, EVERYTHING in that original document manifested.
So lesson #2 is to write out YOUR perfect average day.
And go hog wild. Write it out in the first person… and write it in the present tense… as if you’re already living it.
Then record it, and listen to it daily. You can even put in some binaural beats if you want to really imprint it on your subconscious.
You’ll be amazed at what happens.
Lesson #3:
When I first saw The Secret, I thought I’d start meditating, imagine my dream life manifesting… and then it would happen.
So I did that… and nothing really changed for a while.
I chanted affirmations until I was blue in the face, I made vision boards aaaand…nothing really changed.
Then I heard this teacher talk about acting on your passions. As a demonstration to the universe… as a physical representation of the energy I would use to manifest.
So I started writing. I started shooting videos. My wife and I did fun stuff together…
And ya know what? Opportunities came.
Money manifested out of nowhere.
Ideas started to flood my mind.
So Lesson #3 is to ACT on your greatest passion every moment that you can.
When you start to actually DO THE THING you’re passionate about, it raises your energy, it’s like a vote for the YOU you want to become and you’ll become more magnetic to the life you desire.
Lesson #4:
I was broke, until fairly recently… and in the beginning, all I wanted was to manifest more money so when I was 30, I did what any normal person would do… I got into Multi-Level Marketing to sell $5,000 water machines.
It would be a slam dunk…not only would I get a nice big, fat comission check for every water machine I sold…
But everyone who bought our machines instantly became part of our downline… which means when they sold one of these machines… I’D get paid for it.
So now, I’m calling all of my family members and friends… and I started pushing these machines on them, because I had convinced myself it was best for both of us for them to buy one.
After a few months of this, I had ruined a few relationships, and sold exactly ONE machine… to my now wife, who probably bought it just because she loved me.
After that fiasco…I realized that it wasn’t money I was after. It was the state of aligned abundance and true personal connections that I really wanted.
Lesson #4 is, make sure you know what you REALLY want.
We want money because we really want freedom.
We want a romantic partner because we want love.
We want a fruitful business because we want fulfillment.
Find what you REALLY want, and then set your compass on manifesting THAT..
Lesson 6:
In my 20’s I was a nervous wreck because I was really into conspiracy theories.
I was so anxious that I was afraid to leave my tiny apartment.
And it wasn’t until I replaced replaced Illuminati stories with exercise, meditation, and talking to good friends that I realized this…
Lesson 6 is to stop consuming information and programming that is not in harmony with what you want to attract, and who you want to become.
Trade your doom scrolling ritual for some deep breathing.
Swap gossiping for loving words of affirmation…
And start getting involved with your passions.
You’ll be much happier, and will manifest more things to be happy about… because that’s just how the universe works.
Lesson #7:
After we manifested our dream home, we suddenly had a mortgage that was double what we were paying, and we had to figure out how to pay for it.
So, One of the things we did was to start taking people on Tennis and pickleball destination trips.
And on one trip, I met a fellow pickleball coach who asked me how to structure a group pickleball program.
In about 30 minutes, we had a really good structure for the group class.
I thought it was so good that I decided to start teaching it on my courts at home. Everyone loves it, and it made a lot of money.
Lesson #7 is to realize you already have everything you need to start manifesting more of what you desire.
You just need to become aware of this fact, and allow yourself to tap into your creativity.
Lesson #8:
I was a shy and awkward kid.
And as a result, had zero success attracting women.
It got so bad that I started reading books and attending seminars on picking up girls.
One of the things they suggested was for us to take on this persona of a “ladies man”.
I felt so ridiculous, but I was willing to try anything, because what I was doing clearly wasn’t working.
So when I went out, I pretended that every woman in the room wanted to date me.
And, I started getting phone numbers and dates. And ultimately, it allowed me to meet my soulmate and marry her.
Lesson #8 is to act as though you are already the person you want to be.
Start acting like that person.
Think like them.
Feel the way they feel.
And you will attract what that person naturally attracts.
Lesson #9:
Once I got into this work, I started feeling like I was going backwards.
So I started trying to root out all of my negative emotions.
But it was like a game of whack-a-mole. As soon as I thought I’d given up resentment…
I’d become sad.
When I was done being frustrated because I wasn’t manifesting what I wanted, I’d feel unworthy.
Then I realized that all of these emotions were coming from my thoughts…
Lesson #9 is that any negative emotion you experience is due to the thoughts that you think… which ultimately come from what you believe is true.
Anytime you’re feeling negative emotion, just ask yourself this question:
What would I have to believe is true about myself in order to feel this way.
If you really dig into this question, you’ll start to uncover the hidden beliefs that are blocking your ability to manifest your desires.
And once you let them go using the subconscious reset PDF (link in the description)... and replace them… the whole game changes.
Lesson #10:
In my 20’s I was a nervous wreck.
It got so bad that the only thing that seemed to work was to numb myself with drugs and alcohol.
Of course, that only made me more anxious.
And I started manifesting things I didn’t want like: my car breaking down, things getting stolen, so called “friends” double crossing me..
After completely ruining a relationship with someone who really mattered to me, I was so upset myself that the only thing I could think of doing was to meditate.
I started with 5 minutes a day, did it just about every day… and slowly, I started to feel less anxious. And things started to improve.
So lesson 10 is that meditation can calm you down.
And once you calm down, you’ll become aware of some of the things going on in your life that no longer serve you.
And you start to develop the kind of confidence you need to change them… so you can manifest more of what you want… faster.
And you don’t have to meditate an hour a day. You can start small like I did.
Lesson 11:
With all that said, in the beginning I thought I was a terrible meditator.
I’d sit down, close my eyes, and mind would go crazy.
I wanna get up.
My back hurts.
Why am I doing this?
Id get up a few minutes and say… “that was good enough”.
But then I heard Dr. Joe Dispenza say meditation was like taming a wild animal
And That each time I settled my body back down and found the present moment…
I was overcoming my past conditioning.
I was changing my energy.
And miraculous things started to manifest in my life.
So Lesson #11 is to learn what you’re doing and why you’re doing it… so you can get better results in whatever you’re doing…
It’ll enrich your experience. Your energy will rise. And ultimately you’ll manifest more of what you desire into your life.
Lesson #12:
In junior high I ate double cheeseburgers and french fries for breakfast.
I stayed up late playing video games.
And I wasn’t in very good shape.
This wrecked havoc on my confidence… and it was one of the reasons I was such a shy and awkward teenager.
My vibration was really low. Which affected every single manifestation in my life.
When I started prioritizing sleep, traded ding dongs for apples, and started playing more tennis… things started changing big time..
So lesson 12 is do your best when it comes to sleeping, eating and exercising.
It’ll have a profound impact on your energy. You don’t have to be perfect…
But since everything is about energy, frequency, and resonance…
You’ll naturally start manifesting more good stuff… because you’ll feel better about yourself and in general.
Lesson #13:
I talked about starting this Youtube channel for years.
I knew it would be one of the most rewarding things I’d ever do.
And yet, I did nothing for a long time.
Because I was scared.
I was scared of being judged. I Thought nobody would care. I was afraid of “failing”.
Every time I’d decide to start “tomorrow”...my energy took a hit.
When I finally decided to ACT on my passion, and start the flippin’ channel. Things started to change.
Every time I took action, wrote a script, or shot a video, … I could feel my energy shift.
So lesson #13 is when you feel inspired to do something that you're passionate about…
ACT ON IT.
Everytime you do, you’re moving the needle towards the manifestations that that future you naturally attract… with ease.
Lesson #14:
In the same breath… When I really got going on this channel, I felt this compulsion to continuously pump out content.
I became obsessed… but not in a good way.
I was thinking “Ok… this is the new me… I gotta do these videos, or it’s all for nothing.”
And that energy was the energy of desperation and separation. And manifestations around me reflected that.
The next video would tank. Sales would be lower than before. I’d just be going through the motions.
It wasn’t the energy of inspiration, joy, and excitement.
So lesson #14 is… don’t force yourself to take actions.
Get curious about why you lost the inspiration in the first place.
Make sure you’re not placing unreasonable expectations of yourself.
And the big one is Make sure you’re not attaching your self worth to what you accomplish like I did. That’s a very slippery slope.
When you allow the feeling of joy and excitement to be the driving force in your life… you’ll be amazed at what manifests.
Lesson #15:
When I was 21, I was dating a girl that, at the time, felt way out of my league.
I was hooked… and it wasn’t good.
I started worrying every time we disagreed.
I was terrified of losing her.
I gave off this energy of desperation. This energy lof lack. This energy of separation.
And guess what happened?
Ya. We broke up. I sabotaged the whole thing.
Ironically, it was the attachment to this girl that ultimately doomed the relationship.
So lesson #15 is don’t attach yourself to an outcome.
It will only trap you. It will drive you crazy.
And ultimately… it will prevent the infinitely better possibilities from coming to you.
Lesson 16:
Once I got into conscious manifestation, I started chanting affirmations.
Every morning, I’d get up, and I’d get all hyped up, and scream them at the top of my lungs.
And a few months later… all I had was a sore throat and an empty wallet.
The truth was, I was doing all of this… in an emotional state of lack.
I still felt poor. My energy was still tuned to separation. And therefore, I kept attracting lack.
Lesson 16 is you can only attract what you are the vibration of.
In order to attract abundance… you must think, feel, and act abundantly.
Once you start embodying abundance, abundance will show up.
The same goes for anything else you want to manifest.
Lesson 17:
I had my head up my you know what in my 20’s…
And I had this friend who always told me “you already have everything you need, Ramon.”
And at the time that just pissed me off. I felt even worse because I wasn’t manifesting the life I wanted.
This guy was a true friend… he’d give me great business ideas
And they promptly flew in one ear and out the other.
It’s like he was broadcasting on FM radio, and I was tuned into AM.
Lesson 17 is you can only receive information and ideas that are in harmony or resonance with your current state.
As Bob Proctor once said… you can’t be in an X type vibration and receive Y type ideas.
If you want access to better ideas, and awesome synchronicities, focus on raising your energy, and you’ll be shocked by what you experience.
Lesson 18:
A few years into this Manifestation journey, I started to feel lonely.
I’d be standing in line at the supermarket wishing someone knew who Neville Goddard was.
The more I embodied these teachings the more people I met who knew about them.
So lesson #18 is to find people who “get this manifestation stuff”. Who love to talk about things you love to talk about…
It will raise your energy, and you’ll raise theirs. And you’ll all win.
Rooting for you.
