I'd like to share with you a
personal life experience. I had
been wanting to move to Los
Angeles, CA for the last several
years. When I finally made the
decision back in 1992, I had a
few opportunities but every time
I pursued them something would
happen that would not allow me to
leave. Back then I was in the
process of writing my first
manuscript of a book. In
December, 1992 and January 1993,
my book was in the early stages
of editing. Even when my
financial situation was really
challenging, I was always able to
keep working on it.
I did not have a computer or a
type writer. I was doing
everything on pen and paper. In
February a friend of mine asked
me if I was interested in renting
an apartment in Los Angeles. (Is
that not what I wanted?) I
accepted and paid to hold it for
two months. Unfortunately, I
could not keep paying the rent
because financially I hit bottom.
(Resistance) I was broke. I even
considered filing for bankruptcy.
I never gave up the idea of
moving to Los Angeles. I simply
understood that there must be a
reason why my dream could not be
manifested at that time.
(Surrender) That same month, I
went to a local comedy club in
Miami, Florida. After my
performance, the entertainment
coordinator for a major cruise
line saw me and asked me to call
him at his office the next day.
Working for the cruise line, they
not only took care of all my
travel expenses but I was
generating between $800 to $1,400
a week in income.
Around July of that same year,
my grandmother in Puerto Rico
became very ill. Because the
cruise line had ships in Puerto
Rico, they would fly me back and
forth between Miami and Puerto
Rico so that I could visit my
grandmother. Most of the time I
would stay in Puerto Rico where I
would join a ship for a couple of
days and they would fly me back.
In October, my grandmother
passed away and I had to take
care of the funeral arrangements.
Because I am an only child and my
mother had died five years prior
to my grandmother, all of a
sudden I was overwhelmed with
many responsibilities. Thanks to
the cruise line, I could still
make money while I was taking
care of things at home in Puerto
Rico.
That same month I got a call
from a production company in West
Palm Beach, Florida telling me
that 20th Century Fox was
interested in me for a television
pilot. 20th Century Fox put me on
a holding deal for $30,000. If I
had moved to Los Angeles when I
wanted to, it would have been
difficult for me to handle the
financial responsibilities that
came my way.
As you can see, everything in
life follows a perfect order. God
wants the best for us. The
Universe knew all the challenges
I was going to face that
particular year. But my dream was
never denied. Besides, how could
it possible be denied when it is
not really me dream. It is God's
dream. I am just the channel,
just as you are, through which
desires are transmuted into
physical experience. All that was
required from me at that moment
was to move in the direction of
my dream. So what is your dream?
Do not concern yourself with
details regarding how to make it
happen because that is none of
your business. Notice how the
Universe made my dream come true
in a way that I was not even
expecting. Not only did I end up
moving to California, but I moved
with plenty of money in my
pocket, a development deal and a
manuscript.
Before closing I want you to
be aware that when I mentioned
earlier in the chapter that I was
broke, I could have easily said
poor. The reason I chose the
words broke as opposed to poor,
is because a person who is broke
understands that he or she can
figure out a way to generate
income. On the other hand,
someone who is poor has made a
decision to remain that way.
Poverty has nothing to do with
economy or circumstances, it is a
state of mind. Believe it or not,
it is a personal decision. So be
aware of how you talk to
yourself.
In January of 1993 I was
completely broke financially,
ready to file bankruptcy. I had
no work lined up, but by the end
of that year I had made an annual
income of $44.000. I traveled all
over the Caribbean with all
expenses paid, I got to stay in
Puerto Rico with my grandmother,
I ended up with a $30,000
development deal with 20th
Century Fox and relocated to Los
Angeles, California. That's the
MAGIC of your beliefs!
