Stop "Attracting" Money, Love, & Success and instead do this...

In this video Aaron Doughty argues that the conventional "attracting" mindset—rooted in desire, white‑hot burning ambition and the classic self‑help formula of Think and Grow Rich—is becoming ineffective as global consciousness rises. He explains that constantly wanting something keeps you in a low‑vibration state that signals lack, whereas truly embodying the feeling of already having what you desire aligns you with a higher vibrational frequency. Drawing on Paramahansa Yogananda’s teachings and quantum‑physics ideas about thought‑forms, Aaron describes how thoughts are not created but rather picked up from existing vibrational fields. He emphasizes that identity, self‑image, and internal alignment are the real levers for manifesting money, love, and success. By shifting from a "do/attract" approach to a "be" approach—recognizing yourself as the creator (e.g., "I am a video creator" rather than "I make videos")—you raise your vibration, make actions more potent, and allow outcomes to arise effortlessly. Aaron offers practical steps: daily meditation to raise vibration, consistent identity affirmation, and living from passion rather than external goals. The video concludes with typical YouTube calls‑to‑action and an invitation to use a free 21‑day raise‑your‑vibration meditation.

This video, I'm going to show you why you should stop attracting money, love, and success. I'm going to show you a process that is much higher vibrational and that will get you results quicker than ever. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be sharing with you how you can go beyond attracting, understanding that when you are attracting something, into your life, it's coming from a level of consciousness and a paradigm that those things that you want or the type of way you want to be isn't here already. And in society and in what we've learned, we have books like Think and Grow Rich. We have other amazing books that met us at our current level of consciousness back in the day. However, Think and Grow Rich, while it is still relevant today, also came from a certain time period when those principles were more emphasized. And even though it required a lot of work, and what I mean by this is in the book Think and Grow Rich, it's about having a white-hot burning desire. Because when you have a white-hot burning desire, you then allow yourself to then move from this place of really wanting something to then moving into many times action. It brings you from from a level of consciousness of wanting to have something and projecting yourself and just thinking about it into that of actually doing something. So while that is powerful, what I'm sharing with you in this video is why attracting what you want under that paradigm isn't working as much as it used to, and especially in the way that right now there's a consciousness shift happening on the planet. The vibration is continuing to raise, and as this shift in consciousness happens, as more and more people wake up to who they are, as more and more people focus on raising their vibration, you'll find that the old ways of going about this when it comes to manifestation isn't as necessary as it used to be. There's more easy or powerful ways to go about this process. Now, in general, let's even look at the vibrational dynamics of this. When you talk about wanting to attract something, it is right now in the present moment that wanting to attract something is is coming from a want. It is normally coming from a desire. And when you want something, when you're in the vibration of wanting something, you are also vibrationally saying you don't have it. I've been showing in many of the videos how you could say, I really, really want this. And that is a completely different reality than saying, I currently have this. These are totally different things. And what happens is a lot of people remain in the wanting over and over again and wanting things and thinking of things and mentally projecting things rather than moving into the vibration of having it. And to make that bridge, many times what does help is taking action. So the idea behind Think and Grow Rich was to get to the level of white-hot burning desire that will move you from having to actually doing things, which then allows you to move the vibration from want, want, want, starting to get, starting to have, starting to have, starting to have. Now I have it. So you see, attracting is emphasizing that you aren't good enough already. Attracting is also many times resisting the present moment because I see so many people, and it was me as well, by the way, back in the day when I was manifesting, I was like, oh, I really, really want that. I really, really want that. And I was very much trying to escape to the future and that's what I was doing. Now in this video, what I'm going to show you is a process that I've also learned from that of Paramahansa Yogananda. If you've ever read his books, Autobiography of a Yogi, which I've recommended many times, and what you, what, uh, and just to give it clarity, this book, Autobiography of a Yogi, was the book that Steve Jobs read every single year the last 40 years of his life. Plus it was the only video or the only book that he had on his iPad. Plus everyone that attended his funeral got the copy of that book. There's a reason for that. It's a very transformative book. And what it shows is what's really possible in reality. You see this person, Yogananda, go through the process of enlightenment, meeting other enlightened gurus who literally could do mystical magical things like make objects appear instantly, like do things like teleport, things that we wouldn't even believe if we heard it. Nonetheless, he saw it firsthand, experienced it, and there's a reason that book resonates with— I think they said that possibly over 30 million books of that have been Sold. So I'm just saying it's a very powerful book, pretty much where I'm going with this. So when we look at that, A Pair of Monkeys, Yogananda, what he talks about is that we think that we think thoughts, and if we think thoughts, then we can attract something from over there to into here. What he says is we don't actually think thoughts. What happens is we are in a way generating, picking up on thoughts from a certain level of consciousness and then experiencing a reality that is equal to that. So think about that for a minute. It's not that we are thinking thoughts and then creating and seeing and, you know, attracting something from over there to into here in our life because what quantum physics shows us as well is that everything exists here and now. It's just about vibrational resonance. It's just we normally think in linear time-space reality where like I didn't have it, then I did this and then I do start to have it and then I have it. We look at it in this point of view, but what if you could go from this to this like this by knowing the vibrational components of it, by giving yourself permission to feel and to be in that vibration? So the key to this is understanding that we aren't actually thinking thoughts and you've seen some of my prior videos maybe on thought form, thought forms. This is an esoteric understanding of reality and that our thoughts are literally things when we think the thoughts, they have an energetic form. And when you go to certain places, you leave a trail of your own thoughts and you may be picking up on other people's thoughts because even though these thoughts are invisible, they still have an energetic form. It's just that when you focus on something consistently, you eventually keep thinking about it, keep feeling about it, keep doing things, and then eventually it crystallizes into reality with consistency. That's why consistency is something that I very much talk about. Now what happens though is based on the current level of consciousness you're at, you then are perceiving of a reality through that lens. That's why these glasses are here. The lens that you wear, that's going to determine what reality you experience. If you are in a reality where your intention is to just survive, to take from other people, to, uh, like a lower level of consciousness, which is like survival mode, think about it like, uh, shame, fear, guilt, anger, this person did this to me. If you're looking through reality through those glasses, you will go out and because of that belief system and because of that identity, you will then perceive of a reality through that. And to attract something many times will be very, very difficult because you're trying to attract it from over there to into here instead of realizing everything is here and now, but also instead of realizing that it's not about the external, it's about the internal. So then what happens, imagine you raise your vibration and then the middle of my, the middle part of it right here is the mind, which is reasoning. It's a very powerful level. A lot of the content I share is on understanding that our beliefs create our reality. So you start to see the reality of how am I creating this? What am I thinking right now? How am I feeling? You start to become aware of these things, very powerful level to be in, and because of that you will then feel much more powerful, much more empowered, and you'll be able to create what you want in your life. And you'll be able to think and, and, and go in a certain direction. Remember, you're not thinking those thoughts. You're picking up on the vibrations that already exist and then seeing through the lens of that reality. There have been millions of other people in the past who view reality through the limited survival mode. There've been millions of people in the past who view the reality through the mind, through like union psychology, or through that of even like Napoleon Hill information and success-driven And then we have a higher level, which is a level of love. It's a level that goes beyond the mind. And in that level of consciousness, your vibration is increased. So you see, when we're just focusing on attracting, we're missing out on the main part of this equation. The equation isn't, am I thinking the thoughts and my experience in the reality? It's more about are you raising your vibration? Because when you vibrate, when you are in a higher vibration, you'll find that these things happen easier than ever. But most people go straight to the materialism, straight to the things. I saw this on that. I want a Lamborghini. I want this, I want that. You focus on the external first off instead of focused on the internal, understanding that how you feel is the reflection you get in your life. Do you even believe you deserve a Lamborghini? But most people that remain in that, in the reason they want that, is a reason that isn't as graceful. Most of the time you want a Lamborghini because of how it makes You'll look in front of your friends, you can finally get the girl, or there's— those are normally the intentions. Now, not always. Some people are just abundant and they are from a higher level adding value into the world and they say, you know, I'm just going to enjoy this. And to that person, it's not that important. It's not on a pedestal. It just simply is something, a part of their life. You see, when it comes to attracting, the thing with money, love, and success that holds so many people back is they put their goals on a pedestal. And then they're vibrationally not in the resonance of the experience of having that thing because they're too focused on the attracting of that thing. I want to attract this. I want to attract this. I want to attract this. I want to attract this. I'm not good enough already. I'm not good enough already. I'm not good enough already. If I just got there, I'd be happy. If I just got there, I'd be happy. If I just got there, I'd be happy. Instead, focus on being. The key to this is being in the vibrational frequency you prefer, giving yourself permission Just tell yourself the story that you're already good, whole, and complete. All pain stems from a belief that we're not currently okay, that we're not currently worthy. And that's what many times people are trying to attract things from. They're trying to get somewhere else because there's this lack of feeling 100% whole and complete. What I'm showing you is that instead of focusing on the materialistic things, focus on increasing and raising your vibration. When you raise your vibration, you're then in a higher state to where your thoughts have more potency. Your emotions have more potency. Your actions have more potency from a higher level of vibration, but remember, you're not thinking those thoughts. They already exist. You're just generating them. This is why it's more about alignment than anything else, but the key to this, the key is be. You notice that right here you have have, do, be. Give yourself permission to be. This comes from the level of the vibration of who are you really? Me, I would say my vibration is I love to make YouTube vids. I love to speak in front of people. I love talking. Sometimes somebody's coming on my videos like, you talk a lot. It's a YouTube video. This is what I, this is why I'm making it. If I just sit here not saying anything, it'd probably look a little bit funny and what's the point? Maybe I'll do that anyways. Be, be, be. Be, be, be, be. Give yourself permission to be that which you prefer to be from the level of your identity. Who are you? What are you passionate about? Don't even be attached to it, but be aware of it. What I mean by this is any change that's happened in my own life when it comes to attracting what I want has come from a shift in identity. Like everyone probably has heard me say, when I decided to go daily on YouTube, that changed my identity. I went from a 9-to-5er to a full-time viewing myself and being a full-time YouTuber. Before I was a full-time YouTuber, I made videos every single day no matter what, and then eventually that became my reality. When I look at anything in my life that changed, even when it was I had ADHD or I had a painful past, I changed my identity. I said, you know what, I don't have ADHD. I just have a lot of energy and people sometimes label it as that, so I'm going to try other ways like walking barefoot in grass. We'll see if this works for me. I changed my identity. I no longer identified with ADHD, and because of that, I was then just being with a lot of vibration, with a lot of energy, and then grounding myself in my own way. Don't attract what you want. Literally be what you want. Give yourself permission to be that which you prefer to be. Give yourself permission to be the artist. You don't have to have an art gallery studio to be an artist. Just be an artist. Identify yourself as an artist. If you want to create content, become a content creator. That's who you are. It's natural. People ask me all the time, Aaron, how do you make so many videos? I am— that's who I am. I don't know how to explain it. I don't view myself as a person who makes videos. I am a video creator. It's— I am being that, and it's part of my vibration. This is why I also say make sure it's tied to your passion, because that's gonna be the most effortless. It's going to be the thing that allows you to really just move effortlessly in that direction and it's not going to feel like work. I'm working right now. I got up this morning, I took a cold shower, I meditated before that, and then I, now I'm here filming a video. It's natural for me. This is who I am. This is what I do. And after this I'll do some other stuff. It's also part of who I am and it doesn't even feel like work. Then I'll go to the gym and enjoy myself. You want to know why? Not because I'm some guy that goes to the gym, because it's who I am. I'm somebody that enjoys, and that's just, that's part of my identity. I exercise, I go in the sauna every day. Why is it? Because it's something that I do. No, it's a part of who I am. I'm on top of my health. That's just part of my identity. If you come at it from the being level, everything begins to change rather than the doing and the trying to have, which is emphasizing I'm not good enough already. If I could just finally get success and money and love, then I would be happy. Instead of just telling yourself a new story, the new story, because the old story says, I don't have those things. I really want those things. My mom treated me this way. My dad treated me this way. They both didn't have a lot. All of this story, that's the story that we've absorbed from our parents or from our environment growing up. And what I'm saying is instead of that, you could start to take action, start to take action. Now you have a new story. Now you're starting to change your story and then eventually you start to change your identity. What I'm saying is instead of going from the old story of I'm trying to attract something, I don't currently have it, move straight into the vibration of you being who you really are, being in that of the identity level, the being level in that passion. See the things you do as it's just who you are. Me making daily videos, I'm not a guy that makes videos. I am a video creator. It's what I'm passionate about. It's who I am. I'm not some guy that just goes to the gym. I am somebody, literally it's a part of my identity to do that. Now I'm not attached to it. This is important as well. When you become attached to these things, if one day I was doing something, I couldn't go to the gym because there was no gym close by, all of a sudden, am I lost my identity? No, but I am aware that if I want to create really powerful change in my life, it's not about attracting the right diet or any of these things. It's about simply being because these frequencies already exist in the reality that you want and you realize that then your reality begins to reflect because of that. So don't tell yourself a story that you don't currently have it. Your story also has the beliefs inside of it about who you believe you are. Let go of that. Shed the old self-image. Become aware of your self-image. 99% of people on the planet have no idea what their self-image is. They just tell themselves a story over and over and over again. It's hard to go to the gym. I'm big-boned. All of these things, whatever it is, that's the thing is that story is keeping that on autopilot. But if you said it, what's your self-image? What do you mean my self-image? What are you talking about? You mean who am I? No, they don't understand that their self-image is being projected out into the world. Other people are responding to them based on that self-image that they're projecting out and they have no idea that if they change their self-image, they didn't change their life. You change your self-image, you start to let go of the parts of you that maybe you haven't integrated yet. Maybe you integrate them, but then what you learn to do is you learn to stop the old story that you're not good enough already. Coming out from lower vibrational levels of consciousness, trying to survive, trying to get, and understand that then you could focus on being. Part of being will normally always be connected to adding value some way to other people. And by that, what I mean is maybe just you doing something inspires other people to do the same thing. Who knows? But when you have an intention of adding value into the world, doing what your natural vibration is, finding out what that is, if you don't, it's okay. But understand that when you do that, you're in a higher vibrational state. You don't have to attract because those things already exist. It's about aligning to the frequency of it by just simply being. Give yourself permission to be, be at the level of identity. Just be that version of you. Be it, do it. It's in a high frequency state. You'll know by how you feel and then you'll find that things attract to themselves, to you easier than ever. Now, part of this, something that will help is having that of a raise your vibration meditation that you can listen to every single day. If you listen for 21 days, I think it'll transform your life. It's absolutely free. It will be in the top of the description box below and it will help you to raise your vibrational set points that you don't have to attract so that you exist more in this being state vibration. Something else, if you like this video, I know it's a little more esoteric, especially towards the end. Go and smash that like button and let me know what you thought. Maybe comment below and if you want, I'll do more videos like this. It has a little bit more of that energy, but it kind of showing new ways of going about manifestation. So let me know what you thought of that. Other than that, hit the notification bell if you haven't already. It's the only way YouTube will show you the daily vids that I do. I got one coming out every single day at 10:30 Pacific Standard Time. And as always, I appreciate you. Peace, much love, and namaste.
