Master of Manifestation

Get ready to believe in a little bit of woo and a whole lot of wow. In this episode, we dive headfirst into the world of manifestation with our all-time favourite Irishman, Pauly. From spooky-good intuition to life-altering moments of clarity, we’re sharing the wild, wonderful ways the Law of Attraction has shaped our lives.

Expect tales of sliding door moments, unexpected blessings, and why staying positive (even when the world’s gone bananas) might just be your secret superpower. We also unpack the classic manifestation bible The Secret, talk about why negativity is like reality TV (addictive but bad for you), and ponder whether wealth can actually be a good thing when used with heart.

It’s deep, it’s hilarious, and it might just change how you think. Tune in and bring your vision board.

so we've got my favorite Irishman on and we are talking about

MIC3: 0:43

how many Irishmen? Do you know? Like one? Yeah. favorite. Okay.

MIC1: 0:49

ultimate fa, he's actually one of my favorite people.

MIC3: 0:51

Yeah. Same.

MIC1: 0:54

Pauley here talking about manifestation, which is one of my faves and I've only just recently dabbled in it. I'm actually getting quite good now, for about the last year and law of attraction, all that sort of stuff, Paulie's right into it as well. So this should be juicy. Sit back and, we may teach you a few things.

MIC3: 1:16

All right, Paul, tell us what you know about manifesting.

MIC2: 1:19

All right.,Hello to TLC.

MIC3: 1:23

Welcome.

MIC2: 1:27

First experience of manifestation was in Ireland. And I'll just keep it short and sweet.

MIC3: 1:36

Will you, will you though?

MIC2: 1:39

There you go.

MIC3: 1:39

don't have to, you don't have to. Same.

MIC2: 1:41

but um, like I will keep it short and sweet. There's a history to it, but I'll give, keep it really short

MIC3: 1:47

You don't have to keep it short. Even that bit's not short.

MIC1: 1:50

and sweet. Tina, be quiet. This is Tina's husband, by the way. Yeah. So this is

MIC3: 1:58

why I'm not being part of the main

MIC1: 2:00

Yeah, we've,

MIC3: 2:01

because I would be very

MIC1: 2:02

critical. She's, um, she's in a, that's why she sounds echoy. We've put her in the

MIC3: 2:06

back. Tell your,wife to shush.

MIC2: 2:09

wished. No. All good. Um. I, I had a poster on my bedroom wall of.A, a Rock in.,,Thailand, and it was in Phi Phi Island, and it was an old school,... that cost me two euros, I reckon. And it, I put it in the frame and I put it on my wall and it says, it said, The choices you make. Not the chances you take, determine your destiny. And I sat on my wall for years through a lot of shit. So to me that's the biggest manifestation on the planet.

MIC3: 2:53

The ch hang on. The choices you make. And then what chances you take, No, the chances you take

MIC2: 3:01

your destiny.

MIC3: 3:03

Okay. So

MIC1: 3:04

powerful and so strong.

MIC2: 3:05

So it was a, it was a poster and it was of to, Thailand. A beach

MIC1: 3:12

Mm.

MIC2: 3:12

a rock. And I had it there for years, like. years

MIC1: 3:18

So'cause it was there. And you would've read that all the time. So basically inadvertently you didn't even realize probably at the time that you were actually manifesting. Just by seeing that every day and reading it, you're actually manifesting

MIC2: 3:33

Exactly. I didn't even know where it was. I didn't even know where it was when I bought the picture, I just thought it was beautiful.

MIC1: 3:38

Mm-hmm.

MIC2: 3:40

And then I, I went to Thailand land when I was 25 on the way coming here, and I looked at the same rock In co Pan Yang. And I thought, you know, that, that's my experience with

MIC1: 3:53

So you manifested even going there without realizing it?

MIC3: 3:58

Well,

MIC2: 3:58

I spent six weeks on this island

MIC1: 4:00

Mm.

MIC2: 4:01

looking at these rocks, fishing and swimming. Basically that's my first experience of manifestation and it's very deep for me because it was true a lot of shit. And then to sit on, like, I remember sitting on the beach in Thailand looking at the rocks and looking back on it. Now I'm thinking. that's probably the biggest manifestation I've had in my life. But the more I look at it, I think the secret to life is positivity, because if you're positive and grateful and have gratitude with your day to day existence, that's the secret to everything. So if you believe you're gonna do something, I know that's the, I think that's everything every day. Think positive. And that's what, that's what I believe.

MIC1: 4:57

A hundred percent. I totally

MIC3: 4:59

I agree too. Yeah.

MIC1: 5:01

Yeah. And you're so right. Like it's that it comes back to that mindset and the law of attraction. You notice, look, and we've all been there. You can get negative shit can go wrong in life. We've all been there one thing, afternoon, think oh. Fuck. You drop something and something goes wrong, the tires flat, you get in that sort of down mode and you're like, oh, what next? What next? So you are literally drawing in that negativity and already anticipating that the next shit thing's gonna happen. You're basically putting it out there. So you are already putting out like that vibe of. It's all going to shit, so it's like a magnet. Oh, it's gonna stick, and then you go somewhere and your card declines and then you spiral and you just throw your hands in the air and just, ah, and when something falls down or whatever, and then it makes me late for work., Thank you, universe, because what if that didn't fall down or make me late? And I drove out into the freeway and then. Some truck or whatever, you don't know. Like there's things I believe now that goes wrong some someone's looking after you, so I'll give you an example and it's a little bit disturbing in one way. So I was coming out of a car park a couple years ago. I was in Townsville, now i'm, pretty polite, so I was going to turn and come out and I ushered a car in front of me because, I think there's not enough Aussie way now. Everyone's in a rush. I ushered this young girl out in front of me, so we come up then to the turnoff and my mind just automatically goes, don't turn right. And turn left. And I was like, what? That makes no sense because to turn right, I would've got back on the freeway and then out to where I needed to go, but just this real strong intuition of turn left. And I was like, what? All right. Anyway, so I turned left. I then had to go round the block and I turned up around, back in front of the shopping center at the lights, waiting to go. I look across the lights and there's that young girl sitting across from me in a car at the front of the intersection, and I'm like, oh, there's that girl. That was just weird that I went all the way around the block. Next minute the lights go, this ute comes plowing through. She moves off. Collects her in the middle of the intersection, right the Ute comes to a standstill, doors fly open. Two young lads jump out. Obviously the car's stolen take off. I'm sitting there going like in complete shock. Now, luckily this young girl in the car was fine, thank God.'cause I would've felt so incredibly terrible. Actually at the lights, there was a lot of army vehicles, so they all come out like ants and ran after these two young lads, thank God they actually ran'em down. It was so good to see because they screwed up a couple of cars and nearly killed people. So I just had this intuition. I went around the block, made no sense. Yes, that happened. It wasn't great, but she was totally fine. Maybe if I'd gone that way. It was going to go wrong. Do you know what I

MIC3: 8:23

mean? Mm-hmm.

MIC1: 8:24

Mm. So who knows? What I'm saying is That was my blessing. Maybe that was gonna go wrong if I was sitting there a

MIC2: 8:33

a hundred percent.

MIC3: 8:33

Yeah. So that you're saying there's no such thing as coincidence. Everything happens for a reason.

MIC1: 8:41

I now know because I've had so many things, other things too. That make sense.

MIC3: 8:47

remember when the tree fell on my car and rode off my car two years ago? Yeah. I should have been in that car. It's crazy that I wasn't in that car, but I was. I was at the counter at this nursery about, to pay, what was I doing? I was paying for my plants and then I looked over and I saw this little turtle, this little kind of. Pottery turtle thing that would fit a little succulent in it. That was 20 bucks, but it was kind of cute, and I think I just paid for my other stuff, or I was about to pay, and I was talking to the lady at the counter like, oh, that's a cute little turtle, but I don't really need that turtle. What am I gonna do with it? I've got enough, blah, blah. But then it was just this, it was like smiling at me, this little turtle like, oh,

MIC2: 9:30

I love

MIC3: 9:30

I know I like. Turtles. I'm like, oh, it's so cute, and it's smiling at me. I'll get it. Well, just that 32nd conversation about that turtle saved my life.'cause as we were talking about that turtle, we both looked over and a gum tree fell and. Crushed my car and wrote off my car. No. But if I had just bought the plants and walked to the car, I would've either been standing next to the car or sitting in the car. So that little$20 turtle that was smiling at me on the counter saved my life, I should be dead. Several times I should be dead because of things that's, but something's happened. That's great. Wasn't my time yet. It's not your time,

MIC2: 10:09

but it's just manifest. Going back to manifestation.

MIC3: 10:12

Yeah. We got off a bit.

MIC1: 10:13

little bit offhand.

MIC3: 10:15

We get, I'll do that because Tina's got great manifesting stories,

MIC2: 10:18

my oldest brother Tony, has been going on about The Secret since for 20

MIC3: 10:23

Has he read the book The Secret? Yes, me too. It's amazing. Everybody should read it. Every, have you read it, Pauly? You haven't? Yes.

MIC1: 10:30

No. I've

MIC3: 10:30

Have you not read it?

MIC1: 10:31

no, I've been wanting to do

MIC2: 10:32

it. Yes. Read it. Read it.

MIC3: 10:33

read. Yeah,

MIC2: 10:34

easy.

MIC1: 10:35

I've

MIC3: 10:36

it's

MIC2: 10:36

It's not hard. Everybody

MIC3: 10:37

should read it. It's only about that fat. It's easy.

MIC1: 10:40

easy.

MIC3: 10:40

So much sense, doesn't it? So much sense. So

MIC1: 10:43

need to do that.

MIC2: 10:44

that. Look, negativity is addictive. Okay. To feel negative and to feel down. I think it, it's like an a reverse endorphin.

MIC1: 10:54

Okay.

MIC2: 10:54

So people get a high off being all fuck

MIC3: 10:59

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

MIC2: 10:59

Right? Straight up. So you need to go to the gym, walk move and just keep like train like the golfer that takes TR 300 drives to hit one straight. You keep, have to train yourself. Wake up, think positive. It's very important.

MIC3: 11:21

Think

MIC2: 11:21

that you're going to be successful, think you're going to be loaded, do whatever you want, whatever gets your, your gears going, but negatively, negativity is addictive

MIC3: 11:32

and so is

MIC1: 11:34

anger. You see people that their first reaction is to get angry. Yeah. Rather than just stop and assess the situation, their first reaction is anger. And they actually get an adrenaline pump off of that.

MIC3: 11:47

Doesn't it take more energy

MIC1: 11:50

to

MIC3: 11:50

muscles in your face, things like that. Yeah. To be. Be cranky or angry then just to kind of smile or laugh it off. Or like it uses up a lot of your energy to be so negative.

MIC1: 12:01

But Pauly, you going back to that and you saying, just think positive go for, have you noticed so too? You can come into a place and people pissed off, something's happening, but you walk in, go, hey guys, come on. It sort of lifts the mood straight away. You bring in something and then crack a joke and then old mates like, oh, fuck off, whatever., But you have a bit of, if you get that one person that just goes, come on, and then someone laughs at

MIC3: 12:28

the room

MIC1: 12:29

and then you've lifted

MIC3: 12:30

the room. Mm-hmm. Yeah. It

MIC1: 12:31

take a little bit, but it's that snapping people out of being in that place in their head where I've gotta dwell on this and they piss me off and I need to keep thinking about it and breathing it and eating it. Basically, if you come in and break that,

MIC3: 12:48

Mm.

MIC1: 12:48

is that saying? Holding a grudge is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Oh, that's Yeah. Paul's dad, Joe told me that years and

MIC3: 13:01

years. That's a really good one,

MIC1: 13:02

and I've never forgotten it. And when you release that grudge and that anger. You free yourself. The other person doesn't know the difference whether you are angry or not. Their life's still continuing

MIC3: 13:13

on. Yeah.

MIC1: 13:13

Yeah. Anyway, we've digressed majorly. Yeah.

MIC3: 13:16

But positive thoughts, isn't it?, What you think does happen. So the thoughts that you have, I think that's what the secret mostly was about. The things that you think about actually do come to fruition.'cause you are putting it out into the universe. And so then it will come back to you. So if you are thinking all negative stuff, negative stuff will come back to you. If you're thinking positive, positive stuff will come back to you. And I have found lately, I'm a much more positive person than I was a few years ago. And really great things are happening to me. And the more I think about these things, the more great things are happening to me. And I'm very optimistic and. Like you said about money, money's not that important to me, but money does help. I feel like I'm going to get money. I feel like all these good stuff gonna happen to me because I believe it and I believe in myself and I want it, and I just can't see a reason why it's not gonna happen.

MIC2: 14:14

The secret to life. Yeah, it really is.

MIC3: 14:17

I don't actually care about money. That was ridiculous. That was a bad

MIC1: 14:20

Though. Money does.

MIC3: 14:21

it gives you a bit of

MIC1: 14:22

and it buys options. It does, but not only that, like If

MIC3: 14:25

I don't want money. Use Tony Robbins stuff. Yeah.

MIC1: 14:28

he makes money in

MIC3: 14:29

order to help

MIC1: 14:29

So he has that whole feed in

MIC3: 14:31

American thing. Yeah, I don't wanna be rich or His first,

MIC2: 14:33

I wanna be filthy rich,

MIC3: 14:35

but, but,

MIC2: 14:36

mate, sorry, filthy rich. I wanna, money doesn't

MIC3: 14:39

you happy, but it. Does bring opportunity to make

MIC2: 14:42

Million dollar

MIC3: 14:43

Is it? Yeah. What? What he

MIC2: 14:45

dollar serious. Like

MIC3: 14:46

His main

MIC1: 14:47

you mate. I'm with you.

MIC3: 14:48

st. Do you help people first? St. Money will follow. Yeah.

MIC1: 14:52

that will help

MIC3: 14:53

you help more people. Yeah.

MIC1: 14:53

Seriously though, Pauly, don't you think though we've been programmed in a way to be like. You shouldn't want money. There's nothing wrong with wanting money and being wealthy.

MIC2: 15:04

It's what

MIC1: 15:04

do with it and who you are. It's like Tina's saying, you can help people. It buys you options, or you can leave a legacy. Whatever it is, it's what you do with it and who you are with it. So when we were younger, oh, they're rich. Oh, they're gonna stick out their ass. They're like, oh, once you get rich, you turn into an asshole and you're up yourself. That's programming. That's basically you should stay here.'cause if you become one of them, you are going to be and yeah,

MIC3: 15:31

be a different person.

MIC1: 15:33

You're gonna, and that's not stops you wanting that. There's nothing. Wrong with

MIC3: 15:37

when you get it. There's

MIC1: 15:39

wrong with things. It's what you do with it and how you live your life. Like you said, Pauley, just be positive, be a good person. And if wealth comes with that, oh, bring it on.

MIC2: 15:52

One thing on the manifestation. What you really have to do. What manifestation is, when you imagine something And you put yourself, in your head and you imagine a situation and sometimes you can play it back on a situation, what, you're trying to figure out what, how a situation is gonna go. Well use manifestation like you are walking onto a yacht that's parked off an island on PP Island. Okay. You got four people running the boat, sorting out the grub. You got a, you got a fridge full of beer.

MIC3: 16:30

Are we on this boat?

MIC2: 16:31

You're on the

MIC3: 16:32

Oh,

MIC1: 16:32

I'm totally there. We better

MIC3: 16:34

we're, we better be,

MIC2: 16:34

we're manifesting right now, right? Hang on. This is how you manifesting

MIC3: 16:38

there with you.

MIC2: 16:39

I'm walking on. I'm walking up the boat. I kick off my shoes. Get rid. Take

MIC3: 16:44

It's the details, isn't

MIC2: 16:45

it? Take off me socks. Throw'em on the ground. Oh, open up the fridge. Open up the fridge. Pull out a corona. Put in a lime. Walk up on the deck.

MIC1: 16:54

Feel that cold beer

MIC3: 16:55

in your hand. Sit the on the deck. It's like a movie.

MIC2: 16:58

Sit on the deck. Look out at the big rock. I looked at a belly bag big picture. That's manifestation. Right? But you have to believe it. Feel it. Do you know when you're lying in the bed and you can't sleep? This is what I do, right? I lying in the bed, I can't sleep. I'm like, alright, where am I going on holidays tonight? Alright, Bali. Alright. In your mind, your mind is a mad thing,

MIC3: 17:26

Mm-hmm. Hmm.

MIC2: 17:28

we only activate 5% of our mind. I dunno if that's true. But

MIC1: 17:33

Sounds good.

MIC2: 17:34

Sounds good.

MIC3: 17:35

I was thinking that you had a fact there. Like a scientific fact.

MIC2: 17:39

I'm gonna shut up now'cause I'll keep

MIC3: 17:41

No, I like it.

MIC1: 17:42

The, you're the

MIC3: 17:42

I find that interesting. So, right, like detail, detail. Look, I would think, I think about things that I want, but I don't go into that much detail.

MIC2: 17:51

If someone fucked you off, like during COVID Right, which they

MIC3: 17:56

did. That didn't happen.

MIC2: 17:58

You would've manifest, you would probably have man manifested a situation where you would've tried to figure something out negatively. You probably would've went, all right, this is gonna happen. I'll do this,

MIC3: 18:07

Mm-hmm.

MIC2: 18:08

Instead of the negative manifestation, the key is the positive manifestation.

MIC3: 18:13

Yeah. I have learned

MIC2: 18:14

I don't wanna sound like an old all but. Alright. I reckon it's the key to

MIC3: 18:20

life. It is, you're right. It is the secret. It is the secret. And Cassie definitely read that book. Everybody should read

MIC2: 18:26

that and Tina needs to read it. I don't think you've read it.

MIC3: 18:28

I have read it. Have you, Tina, talk about your Oh yeah, I was gonna say that. Talk about that story. Oh, you need to talk about it. Yeah. Yeah.

MIC1: 18:34

So moving from. Townhouse down the road, and the neighbor was a lunatic. And so we had to move. And I said to Pauly, I want something on the beach, but not with a park in front. A footpath for people to walk past. It needs to be private and, it needs to be full retro with, you know, brown lino and like a bee shack, but it's surrounded by million dollar properties. And it's literally what we got literally.

MIC3: 19:07

Exactly.

MIC1: 19:08

My next manifestation is because of the shit this is happening now, which we won't go into

MIC3: 19:13

We should, is we should air that out. Oh,

MIC1: 19:16

Seriously though, I just have to say this real quick. So we currently

MIC3: 19:21

the situation you're in.

MIC2: 19:22

Oh yeah.

MIC1: 19:24

We currently live in the place that I manifested. We've been here for over four years. They recently sold the property and the new owner wants to take the rent from$590 a week to$1,100 a week and 86% increase. So Of course I'm taking him to the tribunal. Is it

MIC3: 19:48

Is that legal? It is, I suppose you could do what you like when you own the house, can't

MIC1: 19:52

You can put whatever rent you want on

MIC3: 19:55

there,

MIC1: 19:55

but people can dispute it and no one disputes

MIC3: 19:57

Mm-hmm.

MIC1: 19:58

But I am

MIC3: 19:59

they haven't met Tina.

MIC1: 20:00

Right.

MIC3: 20:02

Fuck them.

MIC1: 20:03

Honestly, I, this has taken up my whole week, but I don't care and we aren't probably gonna move, but I just wanna screw him to the wall before we do.

MIC3: 20:12

Yeah. Amen to that. And that's why we love you. Right.

MIC1: 20:15

that's my manifest fucking the moment.

MIC2: 20:21

You're cracked.

MIC1: 20:22

Yeah. House. And we screwed

MIC3: 20:23

that prick to the

MIC1: 20:24

and you screwed that prick to the wall.
