Experiences With Million Dollar Experiment
 
I know Steve posted a few stories about the intention mnifestation experiment concerning the million dollar experiment, but I was wondering whether or not anyone here has a great personal story to share about it. I know one thing: It has played a prominent role in my life. The funny thing about it is that I work at a supermarket right now as I'm making my way through college, and once I started this intetnion, customers would give me money just to do it. It was so bizarre, and it never happened before. All I did was focus on the intention to get money for maybe five minutes throughout the day and the second I wondered where the next sum of money would come from, there it was. I made like five to ten dollars extra every day just by either helping people or by chance. Sometimes they'd say, "here you go, buddy." But the best one ever was froma cab driver. He comes out of his cab, tells me he heard about the great things I did for his mother or something and hands me a ten dollar bill! I was hooked on the Million dollar experiment! There's my story, now share with me yours.

Well, last week I manifested $4 million, but it was for someone else.

Maybe next week you can manifest $4 million for me? ;)

I'll work on it :D

In all seriousness, one thing I'm working with is leaving behind the scarcity model and working toward an abundance model, i.e. give more and get more.

Doesn't this seem like the lazy man's guide to riches?
Do any self-made millionaires think like this? I doubt it, from reading biographies of such people I think they are very much focused on the practicialities of wealth generation in the here and now and do not get distracted by daydreaming or fantasising, which takes the place of actual work.
It's like nerds with their playboy magazines under the bed wishing that they had a girlfriend vs. the studs that are actually spending time with girls of that calibre.

The universe may not necessarily drop a million dollars in your lap straight from heaven but you suddenly see an opportunity to make a million dollars/ come up with a milllion dollar idea. Read the story of the phenomenon called the milliondollarpage.com. It started out as an intention

well...i just joined the experiment yesterday.
a few minutes ago, i brought in the mail and found not one, but two! checks from my insurance company totalling about $125. totally unexpected - representing discounts that had been applied to my policy.

i'm impressed...and grateful! :D

There's a few ways to look at the intention-manifestion model. One is the idea that by priming your brain to gain more money, your brain starts bringing more opportunities to make money to your attention.

On the other hand, under the subjective reality model, that means that that's all you'll manifest.

The full intention-manifestation model is a little mystical, and I was really skeptical about it, too, but I'm really starting to get into it because of the way I've been getting money lately. It's also working for other things I intend, as well.
