Switchwords; Find Money, Relationships, Be Happy, By Saying Certain Words?



According to the Switchwords theory, certain words have a certain energy associated with them, and repeating those words can actually attract something to you, or bring you to something you want.

I posted about Switchwords, and this book is what the author based the whole thing on. (The Switchword site is no longer there)

I was surprised to find the book on Amazon.com, as this book was supposed to be long out of print.

What makes this book a bit more interesting is that the author, James Managan, went through the trouble of doing (unofficial) research on the effectiveness of these words.

From Amazon.com are a few comments about this book;

This book seeks to personally empower an individual in taking control in all aspects of their life. It hits that point quite well and supplies you with a list of "Switch Words" you will be able to use in your day to day living. Like NLP, this is such a small way to change your life in such a really big way.

Would recommend this book for anyone looking for the answers as to how to effect their own personal energy. Also, how it reflects back on their presence in the world of reality.

Not an "airy fairy" read or idea at all. Have tried using some of the switch words and they DO work

I came across switchwords through the internet, it was a free site. But then I decided to purchase this book and I use in my everyday life. I won $30 dollars in Keno and I feel more confident in my self as I used to.
I really recommend this book of James T Mangan. Use it to improve your life.

The Switchword claimed to bring more money is "Count" , since whenever we have more of something we count it.

Quote:
"Recently, I had a shortage of cash flow, for various reasons; an interruption that was beginning to get uncomfortable.

I used COUNT consciously for about a week; and last week, we received a $19,700 USD offer to settle a dispute out of the blue. This issue was going on for YEARS, and had much emotional attachment as it involved people very close to us.

We had no expectation that it would appear when it did. But it did.” --Sandra deleted, St. Vincent, Caribbean



FIND - For creating wealth in particular
CANCEL - To remove something negative, like debt
REACH - To find a lost object, a solution to a problem, or something you can't remember
GIVE This is used to sell something. The idea being that selling something to someone, you're also giving them something they want.
UP - Creates positve feelings and emotions
HOLE - Make yourself attractive to the opposite sex-the idea being that a hole is perfect symmetry, which part of what physical beauty represents...

There are lot more these switchwords, that were developed by Mangan himself. If these words really do work, perhaps the best results come with mixing the word with the intent you want. REACH along with thinking of the object you want, for example.

I don't usually use them, but wonder if repeating these words right before sleep would have any effect, I would have to experiment with that. (Assuming this really works).

I noticed that some of the strangest experiences seem to happen when someone repeats things as they drift off (I'm dreaming for example) so I wonder what would happen if a certain switchword was repeatedly with strong intentions, as a person drifts off to sleep..

Of course testimonials are not always actually proof, and don't be too surprised if nothing happens or seems to happen at least at first.

I would approach this as an experiment, to see what happens, and if something good does, so much the better...


Paraliminal Prosperity: Listen to this For 20 minutes, Attract Prosperity



At least that is what this Cd claims to do. You use headphones, will hear two seperate voices in your ears, giving seperate messages that your mind will supposedly respond to automatically later on.

The result is that you will attract prosperity, automatically and effortlessly. Of course, there are some drawbacks.

This is from the site that sells the CD;

Quote:
As a tip, stay away from asking for money. Even though many customers claim to have won money, received large sums of unexpected cash, and received major pay increases, most people have blocks and hang-ups about money.

You either need to deal with these blocks, which Prosperity will eventually help you do, or you need to find a back door way of bypassing those blocks.



One customer was an accountant for the State of Minnesota who called for coaching.

He was asking for more money when listening to the session. In talking with him, we discovered that the only way he would get more money would be if he got out of his dead-end job (which he did not want to do), if he won the lottery (which was unrealistic), or if his rich uncle died and left him money (and he had no such uncle). For him, more money was unbelievable.

What would be believable?

We asked him what he would do with more money? He said he'd buy new clothes. We said, "Well, ask for the clothes."

Sure enough, within a couple weeks he walked into a department store and found a shelf filled with $30-$40 dress shirts on clearance for $1.97 each! That was true abundance...without having to spend money!

So from this example, it's easy to be skeptical about whether you are really going to attract money or not, and whether that was a real example of prosperity.

Still, here is another example from the site;

Quote:
Our favorite story involves our president, Pete Bissonette, when we were looking for new office space. Everything we liked was too expensive. Place after place.

One Friday he listened to the Prosperity CD. He asked for offices overlooking a lake with trees, an outdoor deck, wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows, contemporary furniture, and an office for him large enough for a conference table.

On the following Thursday, our space broker brought him to a new listing which was in a small town outside Minneapolis. It was even outside where we wanted to settle.

He walked in the door and his chin dropped to his knees. It was the office of our dreams. It even had glass walls on the inside with gorgeous blue carpeting... and because of changes in someone else's business, the price fit our budget!

Within a couple weeks we moved it, and it was our home from 1989 to 2002

I have this title from a few years ago, but have never really used it, or haven't noticed anything unusual, but then again, I never used it enough, repeatedly...
