Why Most Manifestation Fails (and How I Did It Differently) Hook (0:00 – 0:20) This year, I gained 54% in my portfolio. I dropped my body fat to 20%. I made 20 videos in my very first month. And now, I wake up before 4 a.m. every day. But just last year, I was a stay-at-home mom — tired, out of shape, scrolling my phone six hours a day, unfulfilled. Most manifestation teachings focus on dreaming big. But my approach is different. In this post, I’ll share the mindset and habits that helped me manifest these results. 1. Focus on Inner Wealth (0:30 – 2:00) Manifestation begins with what I call inner wealth: clarity, discipline, peace, self-worth, and love. Without it, outer wealth feels empty. I used to think money or success would fix my problems. But that was just chasing validation. Even with money from marriage, I still felt empty inside. ...

My First Principles of Life, Wealth, and Growth I’ve realized something rare about myself: I naturally look for the root cause. Instead of staying on the surface, I keep asking “why” until I hit the foundation. Here are the first principles that guide my life, investing, and creative journey. 1. Energy Economy Surface belief: Productivity comes from time or money. Root truth: Productivity = Energy. First Principle: Master energy → time and money naturally align. 2. Investing Is an Energy Decision Surface belief: Investing is about analysis, charts, and IQ. Root truth: Money decisions reflect emotional energy (fear, greed, patience, clarity). First Principle: Wealth follows temperament → temperament is energy regulation. 3. Awakening Attracts Wealth Surface belief: Spiritual awakening and money are separate. Root truth: Awakening clears energy leaks → focus, patience, and alignment create wealth. First Principle: Inner clarity precedes outer wealth. 4. Consistency + Improvement Surface belief: Success comes from talent or luck. Root truth: Success is built by compounding consistency with small improvements. First Principle: Reps + feedback loops = mastery. 5. Content Creation Surface belief: Growth comes from chasing trends or viral topics. Root truth: True growth comes from documenting truth and improving 1% each video. First Principle: Authenticity + volume + compounding = authority. 6. Raw Model > Role Model Surface belief: A role model must appear perfect. Root truth: People trust rawness more than perfection. First Principle: Honesty + vulnerability inspire more than flawless images. 7. Body as Energy Vessel Surface belief: Fitness is about appearance. Root truth: A fit body is an energy vessel → clarity, confidence, productivity flow from it. First Principle: Strength and vitality are the foundation of presence. 8. Relationships as Mirrors Surface belief: Relationships are only about romance or companionship. Root truth: Relationships reveal inner patterns and awaken self-awareness. First Principle: Connection = mirror → growth tool, not just emotional bond. Conclusion When I trace everything back, it always leads to energy, clarity, discipline, compounding, and truth. These are my first principles. They shape how I live, how I invest, how I love, how I create, and how I grow. ...

Secret Behind 50% YTD — Closing Energy Leaks Changed Everything For years, my biggest energy leaks were not in my habits or routines. They were in my marriage — and in my relationship with my mom. In my marriage, I kept losing energy. There was tension we didn’t talk about. Needs that were not met. I was holding together something that drained me more than it gave me. With my mom, it was her constant criticism. Her comparisons. Her undermining. Even when she thought she was helping, I always walked away feeling smaller, weaker, less myself. At the time, I didn’t see it clearly. I thought the answer was to push harder. To be more positive. To use more willpower. To try another productivity hack. I even told the Italian man I met at the gym: “I don’t want to complain. I want to stay positive.” ...

The 3 Mental Models That Cover 80% of Life’s Best Decisions Life is, at its core, about decision-making. Every day we make choices — big and small — and over time, the quality of those choices shapes the quality of our lives. Investing has been my unexpected masterclass in decision-making. The same thinking I use to decide Buy, Hold, or Sell? is the thinking I use to decide Say yes, say no, or wait? in life.

Over time, it becomes a thinking gym — strengthening not just what you know, but how you think. From my years of investing, three mental models stand out as powerful enough to guide more than 90% of good decision-making in the market: ...
