I'm Cynthia Stafford and I wanton $112 million we first met Cynthia Stafford in 2009 two years after she'd hit the $112 Million jackpot in the California Lottery with her winnings Cynthia has become a film producer art collector philanthropist and friend to the Stars it's a life very different from the one she lived before the win in '99 my brother was hit by a car he was crossing the street and got struck by drunk driver when that happened I knew I had to step in Cynthia was given custody of her brother's two youngest kids she quit
her job as a computer accountant executive to raise them but her brother's other three kids remained in foster care I didn't think that they should be raised by other people I felt that they should be with their family Cynthia knew she needed money to get the other children back she turned to the power of positive thinking for help I wrote 112 million on a sheet of paper and I put it under my pillow and slept on that number for a few weeks and meditated I'm very heavy into meditation breathing in positivity removing all negativity the
positive thinking paid off 112 million times over Cynthia opted for the lumpsum payout of 67 million which she shared with her father and brother after taxes they each took home $22.3 million and the best thing about the win gaining full customer of the [Music] kids full disclosure it is a well-known fact that many past lottery winners who win a substantial amount of money that could be considered lifechanging unfortunately do on occasion end up losing it all going broke and eventually declaring bankruptcy according to the American bankruptcy Institute the estimate of these cases are anywhere between
30 to 70% of new lottery winners and now unfortunately Cynthia Stafford is amongst this demographic citing to poor investment choices as the cause regardless of this development I'm still more so interested in how she won the $112 million in the first place via law of attraction I know both you and I have at one point had the thought if I won the jackpot I would never lose it I would know exactly what to do with it and so for this video we're going to be watching and analyzing a very popular Cynthia Stafford interview in which
she details very concisely what exactly she did to win that $112 million in the first place I strive to to think positive at all times even when things don't seee on positive I switch my thoughts have to we have to in life because if you don't those thoughts that are bugging you will have a way of manifesting in your life amen and so it's always great to have people around you to have books even the things you watch on television I don't watch negative TV I I only watch news and I feel it's pertinent because
those things that you put in your on your mind have a way of showing up so the first thing that sticks out to me so far in this interview is Cynthia's persistent habit of positive thinking in the beginning of this interview she shares a little bit more of her backstory detailing where she was in life leading up to her Lottery Win she had just lost her brother and his children presumably her nieces and or nephews were put into the system and she desperately wanted to get them back in spite of her Bleak circumstances however it
seems as though Cynthia always maintained that habit of persisting in positive thinking at least in this point of her life it appears as though she did this by minding the content she consumed not watching the news unless absolutely necessary and really only consuming ideas that would make her feel I suppose positive so so far all the simple stuff let's continue so I got my kiss taken from me on April 3rd she said they don't need medication all right I said my prayers I chose not to curse the woman actually I did curse let me be
real I was upset then I remembered that I wasn't going to be blessed so I chose to forgive so now we hear that in spite of her Lottery Win Cynthia was still going through it in regards to losing the children back to the state it seems as though in spite of all of Cynthia's positivity there were Still Moments where she faltered and felt negatively I think that this is a very important chapter of her life to include if your sister dies it's absolutely understandable to grieve if someone cuts you off in traffic anger is a
fair response if you've been dumped this last year of course you'd feel rejected and inadequate there are seasons for everything and our emotions are not above that law the only problem is when we perpetually live in an emotional state of grief anger or rejection after this Cynthia chose forgiveness which in it of itself is never for the other person forgiveness is always for you forgiveness is what releases you from the prison of negative emotions one could say forgiveness is a form of letting go because you let go of the animosity you've been harboring for another
person who really could care less and on Mother's Day yeah I want it God just provided it for me it wasn't because I wanted to win the money so I can be wealthy I wanted the money so I can get a good attorney to fight the system so a strong why why do you want what you desire why do you want that ideal physical appearance why do you want to find love what's the purpose of it have a strong why know your why but I did get my kids back in the time that I said
I was going to get them back it's another thing you got to you have to be really clear when you say that you're going to do what you plan to do when I won the money yeah I did intend to win $112 million too I thought that was interesting spiiv be specific be clear on what you want and why you want it and she says when you want it by deadlines actually can be quite helpful because they do help to increase that sense of expectation while simultaneously decreasing doubt everything I what I've realized to in
life is it comes to you when you say and when you need it and sometimes it just comes Serendip in like a Serendip trying to say the word correctly when it's supposed to it comes so be clear on what you want why you want it and when you want it by but still be open to the outcomes and the way it comes about this whole statement that she just made actually it just oozes trust in the process having trust in the process inherently implies a trust in the outcome for your highest good you could not
trust a process that you genuinely believed would lead you to hell and leave you there could you trust in the process is what permits you to keep lifting weights and eating high protein because no matter what it looks like today inevitably I'm going to get the six pack trust in the process means knowing that you're doing all the right things so regardless of what the circumstances appear to be today One Day by the end of this year it's all going to be different and we just have to trust we just have to let go you
know the saying let go let God it's it's almost like you're floating in on water you just have to have that trust and that's something that is so hard for us as humans to just trust trusting in something that we cannot see just like we're breathing air we can't see the air where we're breathing it she said it best trust and let go I've grown to learn that regardless of what I'm going through he's always going to be there she has an implicit knowledge of things will always work out for me which is a belief
that many of us hav't cultivated yet which I honestly find quite sad because life is not always perfect is it sometimes we find ourselves in awful situations and obviously we will react awfully negative situations I've always preferred to look at it like day and night this may sound weird but every evening the sun goes down but I just know I just know in the morning it will rise again every year once a year I have to face minus 20° C Winters and and cover myself up in blankets while filming but I just no that's not
going to last summer will arrive it must it's a fact I hope what I just said sort of kind of made sense to be honest it really was not that deep the point is if you maintain that Foundation of things always work out for me then it just makes everything so much more simpler it really does take the sting out of your current unpleasant circumstances or the unpleasant circumstances that you will inevitably face at some point in your life in the future so my lesson in terms of manifesting I visualize I see it I first
see what it is that I want cuz as you see it so shall it be so visualize I visualized all the time that I was going to be holding a check for $112 million written across it I even visualized myself wearing my little favorite Green Top which I don't know where in the heck it is now and I remember thinking I'm going to wear that top I'm going to hold that check and I'm going to be so happy cuz that what you put your strongest feeling into has to manifest it has to so why not
manifest your best visualize and feel the state of the wish fulfilled whatever it is you want the sooner that you understand that I may not have much right now now that don't mean anything because I'm wealthy the moment you start saying to yourself I am wealthy wealth comes to you wealth is an energy just like poverty is an energy when you say you're poor it will circulate in your life when you say you're wealthy that's what I did I just started saying I'm wealthy I started singing it I'm wealthy I say I'm happy in fact
for real the Happy song yes that's my song so obviously we see a heavy use of affirmations here but it feels a little bit deeper than that doesn't it I suspect Cynthia changed herself concept she's not giving off an energy of applying much effort when it came to practicing affirmations I mean who genuinely sings I am wealthy that's not even a song who can honestly say that happy by farell was their favorite song don't get me wrong it's an amazing song and I'm sure for many people it was their favorite song but it just feels
as though Cynthia had a more profound change to herself concept and as a result of this began to find it fun and and more inspiring more motivating to then practice affirmations and sing along to Happy by farell Williams what I'm trying to say is that at this point in her life at least Cynthia felt very effortless even in the way that she speaks it's all very fluid and effortless the woman seems pretty relaxed for having just won $12 million uh she doesn't seem shocked does she so be careful because depending on how powerful your spirit
is you can go out the world can hear it and come back but be positive is my point dve to be positive because what you put out will come back always even when you put out negative it'll come back so I always strive to be in a positive okay so strive is another word for persist no matter what is going on around you darling you must persist in your new preferred self-concept so visualize always speak things into the positive with positive energy and you have to feel it strongly and be your best what do I
call it cheerleader like just cheer yourself on see yourself as like the best on this planet and don't hang around and have people around you they want to pull you down okay because they will do that they will be there and you just just have to look at them and say okay they're not at the same level that I'm on and God bless you in fact say prayers for them and keep moving on sometimes you might have to let them go and release them release them let them go and keep moving have a smile on
your face sing that McDonald song put a smile on and keep it moving CU that's what I do scattered throughout this interview it's very apparent to anybody watching that Cynthia understood that your word is your wand she tells stor of how she'd wake up in the morning and immediately declare today is going to be a great day and and oh here it is she would say that she's blessed constantly I am blessed it seems like that must have been one of her favorite affirmations alongside I am wealthy let's hear what she has to say next
in this part what you say is what you receive yes and I'm always telling my friends you know if you say you want something for free be that you know don't put it out there that you know um I'm you know do this at this particular time when you really want it now if you want something right now say you want it now don't put it off into the future because the mind hears you and the subconscious mind doesn't take jokes don't joke with yourself don't say oh I'm so stupid because because all of a
sudden you start being stupid I I say to myself I'm the most brilliant person on the planet because what you say up here is what your mind believes yes we have to be careful careful of what we say you have to be that person who say I'm the next star whatever so watch your speech especially how you speak to yourself we all have a role you just have to choose what you want to be and you have to choose though you have to make the choice no one else can make the choice for you because
the mind will open those doors for you and so will spirit I think everything she said right there could be some ized by a Pinterest quote that I saw many years ago choose the life you want to lead and say no to anything that isn't that I don't think I'm quoting it verbatim but you get the gist when you want to manifest something don't ask how just put it out there don't ask how it's going to happen like for me I just I had several ways of bringing wealth in that just happened to be one
of them but I had other ways of bringing money into my life this is another thing that I trip up on still asking how my desire will come about I'm well aware that the issue with preoccupying yourself too often with the how something will come about is that we move to fill in the blanks so for example you'll decide that you want to see $112 million in your checking account but that number does seem forign to you so then you'll go ahead and add that you want to receive it by winning the lottery but then
you're also aware of what the odds of winning the loty are which are statistically not in your favor not in a million years are they in your favor statistically speaking so you've got that idea floating around in your subconscious mind mucking up the whole Endeavor limiting the ways in which you could have received your desire which initially had absolutely nothing to do with winning the lottery you wanted the money tracing it back even further it wasn't about the money what you wanted was to not worry about money what you wanted were feelings of freedom and
stability the ability to have beautiful things in your life that's what it was all about Helen hadel understood this quite well when she manifested her dreamhouse vacations and luxury items for the Times all without introducing the element or the concept of money on the other hand you say you want to see $112 million in your bank account and then you ask but how how is that number even possible for me then you find yourself settling for a million but you do not feel as strongly for the million as you do for the 100 million and
then you're left with nothing these are experiences two specific experiences not regarding the money that I have experienced in the past and they both started with that question how so now I'm still working on it whenever I find myself asking that stupid question how I replace it with why why do I want it and we already spoke about that earlier in the video purpose have a strong why when you do manifest the wealth that you want what I say to people especially when I do interviews is um be prepared in fact what I started doing
before the money came um was talking to financial advisers um get in good with wealth which means study wealth study wealthy people and because wealth will stay around you when you say you're wealthy talk to lawyers other people who you if you have people around you who are wealthy but make friends with wealth it's important and be comfortable with it when if you're uncomfortable with wealth it won't stay it'll leave you so the cynic in me sees the irony in that last statement forgive me however what she is saying here is absolutely golden and we
know that because she did at one point in her life amass that level of wealth you've got to prepare for your desire and get comfortable with it I think she said that very best the word comfortable get comfortable get comfy with your desire make it normal to you so normal that the Fulfillment of your desire is the next logical step anything good I have ever received in my life never shocked me once it physically arrived it just felt familiar it just felt logical it just felt right it was like okay well of course I got
approved for my new dream cart duh of course I got accepted into my dream program obviously this last final tip that she gives I'm so happy she said it is not something to be slept on whatever you desire get intimate with it I use that word intentionally like a beautiful woman you want to fixate on it you want to study it you want to focus on it understand it get to know the way it works fall in love with it become it attract it there are more interviews on Cynthia Stafford that I will leave in
the description box but I chose to explore this one most because this one was taken shortly after she manifested all that wealth so she was still on that frequency of manifesting things especially wealth and therefore her advice would be more accurate and more practical more beneficial for anyone who is trying to attract achieve or manifest anything obviously especially wealth for those other interviews that are linked in the description box I encourage you to watch them whenever you feel bored and are curious and maybe tell me if there's anything that I missed so inmation what we
learned from 2007 Cynthia is think positively trust the process let go of negativity have a strong why be specific about what you want know that things will always work out in your favor visualize and with feeling work on your self-concept persist in your new self-concept watch how you speak to yourself don't worry about how it'll come about and prepare for what you want in her words get comfortable with it and with that being said thank you for watching this video I truly do hope you enjoyed it if you did I trust you'll give this video
