Chapter summaries

  1. Cold Open and Welcome: Manifesting Money with Rhonda Byrne

    The episode opens with Rhonda Byrne's claim that all the money people need is waiting for them and that they block it themselves. Lewis Howes then welcomes viewers and explains the focus on manifesting money and the blocks that hold people back.

    • •Rhonda says people stop money from coming by thinking they don't have enough or don't deserve it
    • •Lewis introduces Rhonda as the creator of The Secret, who rarely gives interviews
    • •He asks viewers to comment 'yes' if they want her back and to subscribe

  2. Happiness Brings Money: The Waiter Example

    Lewis reads a Manifestation card saying money doesn't bring happiness but happiness brings money. He uses tipping and his own experience to illustrate it, and Rhonda says the Law of Attraction is what makes you want to give more.

    • •Card: if you keep thinking you need money, you keep attracting needing money
    • •Happy, kind service workers get tipped more
    • •Lewis felt he had no skills to earn money until he chose to be happy and let that energy spread
    • •People want to help and reward those who bring joy into their lives

  3. The Beliefs That Block Money

    Rhonda explains that people stop money by believing they lack enough, don't deserve it, or can only earn it through a job. Lewis asks why money is so hard to break through, and she links it to ingrained ideas of deservability and her own childhood of lack.

    • •Money can come from unlimited sources, not only from a job
    • •The Law of Attraction can only do what you believe
    • •People limit themselves with beliefs like 'I need to work harder' or 'I need to suffer'
    • •Rhonda grew up with secondhand clothes and had to shift from a lack mindset to an abundance mindset

  4. Turning Lack into Abundance: Affirmations and Gratitude

    Lewis asks how Rhonda changed her own mindset from lack to abundance. She describes using affirmations and gratitude, and reversing anything that gave her a bad feeling about money.

    • •She used affirmations about being wealthy and attracting what she needed
    • •She practised gratitude for everything she had
    • •She reversed anything that felt bad around money, starting with paying bills

  5. Bill-Paying Games: Pretending Bills Were Checks

    Rhonda describes the games she played with bills when she was deep in debt from making The Secret. She pretended bills were checks, added zeros, imagined payments as donations, and wrote 'Thank you, paid' on bills, a habit she still keeps.

    • •She opened bills as if they were checks and tallied them, adding zeros to make the amounts bigger
    • •She imagined each payment as a donation that helps the company's employees and their families
    • •She wrote 'thank you' over maxed-out credit card statements and still writes 'Thank you, paid'
    • •The Law of Attraction doesn't know whether you are imagining or it's real

  6. Overcoming Money Stress: Pay What You Can and Keep It Playful

    Lewis asks how far to take the game when the bills keep stacking up. Rhonda says you still pay what you can, starting with the most urgent bills, and that the playful approach is meant to help you feel better about money.

    • •You have to pay what you can, such as electricity first
    • •Companies may offer payment plans if you call them
    • •The aim is to do things that make you feel better about money
    • •Lewis highlights the playful nature of her approach as a key of The Secret

  7. The Desires List and the Last Wish in Tahiti

    Rhonda explains how she wrote a list of her biggest desires and says every one manifested. She says to simply write what you really want, with no reason or special wording needed, and tells the story of fulfilling her last desire on a plane to Bora Bora.

    • •She says all of the desires on her list manifested
    • •Just write down what you really, really want; the Law of Attraction doesn't care about your reason
    • •Her last desire was visiting Bora Bora, where a plane full of joyful Tahitians moved her to tears
    • •People find excuses to put off happiness, but you have to be happy before

  8. Jumping for Joy Visualization and Deciding Outcomes

    Lewis reads the 'jump for joy' card, a visualization of receiving your desire done in under 30 seconds. Rhonda says she used it herself and applies the same clear choosing to small things like test results and the dentist.

    • •Imagine you've received your desire and see yourself jumping for joy
    • •The key is feeling joy now, not feeling bad that you don't have it yet
    • •Decide what you want your outcomes to be rather than saying 'I don't know yet'
    • •Rhonda says 'Fabulous' before going to the dentist

  9. Four Rules to Manifest Money and the Ego's Lack

    Lewis reads the four rules from the card on prosperity and asks why people withhold their gifts. Rhonda says it's the nature of the ego and tells people not to believe negative thoughts about themselves.

    • •Four rules: think more abundance than lack, be happy now, be grateful now, give your best to others
    • •Rhonda says the ego's second name is lack, and its other names are fear
    • •The voice in your head is not you, just thoughts floating by
    • •People are magnificent and brave

  10. Guarding Your Mind from Fear and Negativity

    Lewis shares how his father muted sickness commercials, and both discuss standing guard over what you take in. Rhonda mutes too, avoids the news, and says fear attracts what you fear, while the mind is a program you can change.

    • •Lewis's father muted medication and sickness commercials
    • •You can be informed without being entertained by fear
    • •Rhonda cites the line from Job, 'What I feared the most came upon me'
    • •The mind is a program, and feeding it good thoughts builds momentum

  11. Lewis's Reflection: Happiness First and His Sister's Couch

    Lewis steps out of the interview to reflect on six keys from the conversation. He describes his fear of money and the time on his sister's couch, then explains how happiness precedes money and how a book from his brother gave him a spark.

    • •Rhonda's one idea grew into a book, documentary, and cards
    • •Lewis lived on his sister's couch for a year and a half after an injury, and her kicking him out helped him
    • •He says you can't have first and then be; you must be, then act, then have
    • •Joy opens a portal for opportunity while a clenched, negative state blocks it

  12. Key Two: Feeling Deserving and Facing Your Fears

    Lewis covers feeling deserving, using an Oprah quote on worthiness and his own childhood feelings of worthlessness. He offers three keys to worthiness, starting with a fear list and the salsa club story.

    • •He quotes Oprah Winfrey: being alive makes worthiness your birthright
    • •He wrote a fear list and acted on it weekly, with Toastmasters and salsa dancing
    • •Keeping commitments to yourself builds a sense of worth, as with his 11 years of weekly episodes
    • •Generosity matters, because takers eventually stop receiving

  13. Keys Three and Four: Playing Games and the Desires List

    Lewis covers playfulness around money using an Alan Watts quote, Jim Carrey's $10 million check, and his own game of finding money. He then turns to desire lists, quoting Bob Proctor and describing beautiful versus suffering states.

    • •Jim Carrey wrote himself a $10 million check and later got a $10 million movie, though he acted consistently in between
    • •Lewis played a game of finding money and once found $100
    • •Tight, serious energy around money creates an energetic block
    • •Bob Proctor quote: 'If you see it in your mind, you will hold it in your hand'

  14. Keys Five and Six: Gratitude and Belief

    Lewis ends his reflection on gratitude, with a Wayne Dyer quote, Robin Sharma's line and his own painful past, and then on belief. He argues that self-doubt kills dreams and that money flows when your life is in alignment.

    • •Rhonda calls gratitude the fastest way to change your life and shift your vibration
    • •Wayne Dyer: be thankful for the storms as well as the smooth sailing
    • •Creating from pain and anger brought results but not peace
    • •Limiting beliefs about money, such as that it only comes through a job or requires suffering, hold people back
    • •Lewis closes by asking for comments and subscriptions, and Rhonda adds that gratitude can blow your mind
