You may be wondering why I would consider a target that is rather low considering I'm attempting to manifest $8000 in one month. You might be saying "If he's able to make $8000 a month, his account should be at $25,000 in no time".
Well, you must keep the following in mind:
- Every paycheck I get, 1/3 of it is put in a separate account so that I can use it to pay taxes - I'm paid as a contractor in pre-tax dollars and I am responsible for my own taxes
- Another 1/3 of my paycheck goes into a joint account with my wife - this joint account is used to pay the bills, property taxes, the mortgage, etc
- The final 1/3 of my paycheck I can keep in my savings account
Thus, when I manifest $8000 in one month, I'll only get to save $2666.66 in my savings account IF I don't spend any of it. Not only that, a portion of what I save goes into my retirement account.
And so, even if I make $8000 a month, it'll still take me some time to get it up to my target of $25,000.
Once my savings account get to that target, I'll begin manifesting an even bigger amount
Much like the technique I'm using for my monthly target, I'll visualize seeing my bank statements with $25,000 or more. I'll focus on how I feel with this money in my account and the sense of security I have with it there.
