Manifesting, Is It Being Delusional With Extra Steps

This week on Thoughts Off The Stem, Justin tried manifesting for two months on an assembly line.Nothing changed. He still has no money. Still renting. Still no yacht. But he did develop a nagging internal voice that interrupted every "I am wealthy" with a very firm "no you're not."Turns out your brain is not an idiot. You can't trick it. And if you spend enough time lying to yourself on repeat, one of two things happens — you either annoy yourself enough to actually get off the couch and do something, or you end up like Michael Douglas in Falling Down, standing in traffic with a briefcase and a 200 page manifesto wondering how you got there.This week is a full unfiltered rant about manifesting, vision boards, the guy on TikTok who changes timelines through his shower, why mantras are not magic, and what manifesting actually is when you strip away the incense and the dirty carpet and the cosmic Amazon Prime fantasy.Spoiler: you still have to do the work. 🌿Thoughts Off The Stem is a comedy podcast packed with hilarious observations, personal stories, and unfiltered takes on everyday life. Join Justin Barone as he turns life's frustrations, weird thoughts, and the absurd into laughs. Listen, watch, and learn more at ⁠⁠⁠Tots420.com⁠⁠⁠.
