My story on how I applied the secret/power of the subconscious mind to get a record deal, ( which I'll add to my other thread as well) goes like this..

Back in 2001-2002 I worked for Verizon... I was with them when they were in a transition phase buying up all of the smaller companies to acquire more cell towers so they would have the biggest network in the world :blessed:

Me being a young nikka out tryna get more bread on top of the 60k+ I was already making with base plus commission, I figured out a way to hustle phones on the side with bills paid for and everything. This was the time when the Motorola V60's was poppin.. I was slangin then hoes for $250 a pop when the retail was about $650 or some shyt like that at the time. I was slanging them to two main resellers on the east coast doing like $$10k a week :wow:

I was mobbin to work with all of the newest phones, car was decked out, designer clothes etc. Long story short, I got snitched on by this fat CAC bytch who thought it was suspicious that I had so many material things on the Verizon salary so they started monitoring my activity through a big brother system :huhldup:


I was hustling successfully for about two months, but they only caught 2 weeks of my activity before they decided to hit a nikka with the "Hey Rod come with me, we need to talk to you" :mjcry:

I was hella sloppy wit it so I understood, but anyways they caught me up and I ended up doing 8 months in Jail for grand theft. They ended up only charging me for $42k worth of stolen cell phones when it shoulda been well over that :lolbron:

So now Im a convicted felon who would be on probation until I paid off the $42k restitution. While on probation I wasn't supposed to leave sacramento county at all or else I would be arrested on a probation violation and sent back to jail. Of course Im like how the fukk am i gonna pay this shyt off? I either have to win the lottery or get a record deal.

It wasnt until I read "The power of the subconscious mind" that I started consciously practicing these techniques consciously... I was recording all day in my room, constantly focused on nothing but music. I was huge 50 fan so that ws also embedded in my subconscious as he was the only nikka I was really listening to during this very targeted time period... My whole focus ws to get a record deal, I never ever even considered G-Unit as a possibility because it was a gangster ass label and my shyt was more swagggy.. So always figured something more like a DTP would make more sense..

Anywho, every night about 2am I would take what i would like to call a "meditation walk".. It was at least an hour of me walking around where I lived, it was really quiet out and I would have interviews about how i just signed my deal, how i was off probation, how its crazy that i signed off of a demo to this major label, how i had cars, money, on MTV, etc.... During these walks i was literally feeling the feelings as if these things were already happening. It was crazy. I didnt really know what i was doing when I first started doing it, I was more just having a goodtime daydreaming so to speak... But the feelings were real.. I was doing that shyt at least 5 nights a week...


So Im on this website called 602streets (A site like the coli but only dedicated to the Arizona hip hop scene) and this guy named Taurus Scott from Arizona makes a thread asking people to send demos so he could submit them to G-Unit.. everyone on the site was like "yeah right nikka, why would u come on here for that?" :duck:

Im more optimistic so i said as long as u aint asking for a submission fee what would i have to lose.. :yeshrug:

Out of all them nikkas on that site only 3 people sent him cd's, me being one of them of course :banderas:

So Im still doing my walks and about 3 months from the time I sent the CD I get a text ffrom the guy saying he wants to holla at me on a conference call


This nikka calls me and goes yo I have 50 on the line :myman:

Im like shut the fukk up nikka stop playin :camby:


50 starts laughing on the line :pachaha:


im like oh shyt??:krs:



This nikka said he was on a flight from NY to LA going thru beats/instrumentals and my demo was in the middle of his cd's :mindblown:


To this day he doesn't know who put the shyt in there.. He thought it wa an old cd of him and he said after having it on repeat for3 hours he told whoo kid he was gonna sign this kid soon as he landed... Im like :noah:

the rest is history... Funny shyt is, things went so fast I violated probation cus my probation officer saw me on MTV and had to charge me cus his supervisor put him on blast.. shyt was hella funny... Soon as I got my advance I paid the 42k off, hired a lawyer and got my felony reduced to a misdameanor and expunged. Free man once again :wow:


Anyways thats my story the best way i could freestyle type it.. hope it made sense.. I believe in that shyt.. Meditation, focus and action causes great things to happen. Im getting deep into quantum physics now and shyt is crazy.. fukks with Gregg Braden real heavy.. Western science is finally catching up to this way of thinking, sounds crazy but the shyt is official in my book... We always gotta remember whether we think we can or we can't, we are always right....
Great story breh....tell em. That power is true. :mjx:

Just downloaded the pdf version of the book you referenced.....haven't read that one.

I am about to pick my next milestone.

my man lemme know what you think.. also fukk with wayne dyer, deepak chopra, and abraham-hicks
Reading it now breh....very similar to the 'The Power of Now'...'The Power of Focusing', and 'Law of Attraction'... And I don't mind it being similar. It reinforces and reminds me to focus my thoughts. You are supposed to read these books several times apiece anyway.

And like I said, I got everything I focused on to date....and got comfortable and had stalled on making a decision on my next goal or milestone. Its time that I probably put my LinkedIn account up again. I am not driven by money so I was in no rush.

Between major milestones, I was focused on tranquility in life, words, and relationships. Its worked.

I am on page 24 of 138 of the book you recommended. Very easy to understand apply. I'll follow those other dudes on Twitter to see what they're about. Actually, I already follow Deepak.

Thanks breh.

Whats your next goal?

Yeahhh I have yet to dig deep into "the power of now" but I like eckhart's way of delivering his message.

Thats great to hear, sounds like you "get it" definitely keep me posted on your journey. I love communicating with like-minded individuals

My next goal is to secure a new deal and get back deep into production. Also going to learn to Dj as well... Gotta get back out on the road heavy and continue stacking and meeting new people. Music is a great vehicle to anything you wanna do in life and I already have my foot in the door...
