In this enlightening episode, Billy Carson explores consciousness, manifestation, and ancient wisdom with Lewis Howes. Carson breaks down complex concepts like the nature of reality, dimensions, and our place in the universe while providing practical frameworks for manifesting dreams. (36:00) He reveals how ancient civilizations understood manifestation principles that modern science is only now discovering, sharing his personal formula: conscious thought multiplied by action equals manifestation.

Carson shares the ancient formula he discovered: Conscious Thought multiplied by Action equals Manifestation (CT x A = M). (16:27) This isn't just positive thinking - it requires specific visualization combined with consistent action steps. Carson learned this at age 8 when he sold toys door-to-door to buy ice cream, realizing that having a clear vision plus taking action creates tangible results. To apply this, first get crystal clear on exactly what you want (not vague desires), then visualize it in vivid detail as if you already have it, and finally take consistent daily actions toward that outcome.
Carson reveals that speaking positive affirmations for 21 days can actually rewrite your DNA at the cellular level. (34:15) This happens because your body is 70% water, and water responds to conscious intention and sound frequencies. When you say negative things like "I suck" or "I'm not good enough," you're programming your cells to vibrate at that frequency. Instead, use phrases like "I'm the architect of my life" and "I'm worthy of abundance." The transformation happens because your subconscious accepts these new instructions and begins creating neural pathways that support success rather than sabotage.
Before you can manifest anything meaningful, you must forgive yourself completely. (24:38) Carson emphasizes that trauma stored in your body blocks your ability to receive abundance. The process involves looking in the mirror and having a honest conversation with yourself: acknowledge your mistakes, forgive yourself, understand why you made those choices, learn from them, and commit to not repeating them. This clears energetic space in your body and mind, allowing you to attract what you truly desire rather than unconsciously sabotaging your efforts.
Carson learned that shifting from a competition mindset to collaboration creates exponentially better results with less stress. (99:48) When you compete, you create unnecessary battles and drain your energy fighting others. When you collaborate, you recognize that abundance is unlimited and everyone can succeed. This means celebrating others' wins, looking for partnership opportunities, and focusing on serving others rather than beating them. The universe responds to this higher frequency by bringing more opportunities and meaningful connections into your life.
Carson explains that trauma gets passed down through generations via epigenetic memories in our DNA. (97:57) This ancient programming creates patterns of domination, competition, and scarcity that keep humanity stuck in cycles of conflict. The only way to break these patterns is through meditation and positive affirmations that literally rewrite the genetic code you'll pass to future generations. This requires daily practice of catching negative thoughts (Carson suggests using a rubber band to snap yourself), replacing them with empowering beliefs, and consistently choosing collaboration over competition.
