Attracting Patrick Dempsey's Sports Car

Actor Patrick Dempsey loves sports cars but not the Porsche so much as the Panoz. I know because I just attracted his custom made exotic car, and it ain’t what you think.

If you’ve been following my career, you know over the last few years I’ve been attracting a car collection. Not a collection on the scale of Jay Leno or Jerry Seinfeld, but good enough to get into magazines such as Heavy Hitters and Austin Fit, and on TV shows like Discovery Channel’s upcoming new one on Super Cars.

The other thing you may or may not know is that I rarely go seeking these cars. They come to me. I’m just alert enough to seize the moment when the car is there. I say “Yes!” to them.

And that is a secret to how the Law of Attraction works.

For example,  I knew Patrick Dempsey (of TV’s Grey’s Anatomy and many movies, such as Freedom Writers) had a Panoz exotic sports car because I’ve been to the Panoz factory, met the Panoz family, and heard his story. I also own Francine, a 2005 Panoz Esperante GTLM, a fiery redhead of a car.

Dempsey’s car was custom built for him in 2002, with every street-rocket perk you could install at the time. He’s a race car fan and driver, and knows what he wants in a barely street-legal exotic car. Panoz listened and built what he wanted. The result is a one-of-a-kind car. It’s a supercharged V8 with 420 HP. Like my own Francine, it’s an Esperante GTLM. In fact, according to the Panoz company, it was the first Esperante ever built. It was named Tallulah, after Dempsey’s daughter.

I remember thinking it would be cool to somehow buy his car one day. But I didn’t worry about it. I mentally set my intention and let it go. I had no attachment to it at all. None.

The other day I got my daily eBay alerts for the topics I’m interested in (such as Panoz, P.T. Barnum, Steve Reeves, Joe Vitale, John Scarne, Bugatti Veyron, etc). To my surprise, Patrick Dempsey’s hand-made one-of-kind Panoz sports car was listed for sale.

Please note that I did not go looking for that car. I let it come to me. But when it did, I took action and bid on it. I now own it. I’ll be picking it up next week in Chicago.

The same thing happened when I stumbled across Steven Tyler’s rare Panoz AIV Roadster. I’m of course aware of the Aerosmith singer, but never thought I’d actually find or buy his collectible car. Well, I did.

And almost the very same thing happened when I learned that the 1976 Jaguar XJS owned by famous bodybuilder and actor Steve Reeves (Hercules) was available. It wasn’t listed on eBay, but I found it while browsing a website about Reeves. I couldn’t believe it was for sale. I bought it for a fair price, invested a lot of money to repair and restore it, and now proudly own it.

But remember, this post isn’t about buying or collecting cars; it’s about attracting what you want with intent, detachment, and action.

In fact, the more detached you are, the better for attracting results.

For example, when I was in San Diego last September for my Miracles Weekend event, I went to a luxury car dealership to see a Bugatti Veyron, probably the fastest and most expensive car yet made. I loved the car but didn’t want to spend over a million dollars for it.

While there, I saw a 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom. I had no conscious intent to buy the Rolls, but did (and did on the day the stock market dropped the most number of points in recent history). As a result of spontaneously buying that car, with no need or attachment, I created a whole new business: the Rolls-Royce Phantom Mastermind.

If you study this post, you’ll see some key elements at play in making the Law of Attraction work for you:

1. State what you want.

2. Release any need for it.

3. Take action on the opportunities you spot.

Again, attracting a new car isn’t the goal but only the demonstration of how this process works. If you think this is about attracting cars or “stuff”, then you’ve missed the point.

I could rationalize my car purchases as investments in a private collection (they are), or as rewards for milestones in my life (I just spoke to 15,000 in Peru), or explain that I intend to turn Dempsey’s car into a hydrogen-hybrid (by fitting it with Ronn Motors’s H2GO system, like the one used in their amazing exotic sports car, the Scorpion).

But the larger lesson is these cars illustrate how the Law of Attraction works. For you it may not be attracting cars but something completely different. Attract whatever you want. It doesn’t matter. It shouldn’t matter. I’m challenging you to make the LOA process conscious – and to enjoy the ride as you do.

Finally, I confess that I had doubts and second thoughts before actually placing the winning bid for Dempsey’s car.  That’s the nature of our monkey mind. But then I remembered a key principle in my course, The Secret to Attracting Money. secret-attract-money.jpg

It’s the principle I coined “Prosperous Purchasing“.

Prosperous Purchasing means this: when the product or service is there, and your desire is there, and the money is there, then buy.

Why?

When you buy under those circumstances — Please note I’m not advising you to go into debt or spend recklessly — you send a psychological message of self-worth to yourself, and you join the abundant flow of the universe.

In short, spending under those conditions will increase your prosperity.

Because I now own Patrick Dempsey’s sports car — due to the Law of Attraction, the Law of Right Action, and the Law of Prosperous Purchasing — I expect to achieve even greater wealth, success, and happiness.*

And that’s yet another secret to attracting what you want: your expectations lead to your results.

As the title of my most recent book says, Expect Miracles.

What do you expect?

Ao Akua,

Joe

PS — Actor Patrick Dempsey is one day going to want another sports car, whether a Porsche or a Panoz or some other exotic car. When he does, he might check out How to Attract a New Car. Varoom!

* Get this: An hour after winning Dempsey’s car on eBay, I was notified by one of my business partners that I had three times what I invested in the car coming to me in commissions from product sales. (!)  See how all of this works?

    Thanks for sharing this Joe. I’ve been keeping up with your stuff for a while, and part my calling seemed to be to start my blog. But, I need to keep your process in mind for my job search.

    So with “2. Release any need for it.” you actually mean that you released the resistance for not having it and actually in your vibration already owned the car.

  3. June 18, 2009 at 8:03 am

    Hi Patrick. Actually, I mean what I said: I released any need for the car. I did not pretend to own it. Instead, I knew I didn’t need it for my happiness and well-being. My detachment, as I said in my post, is part of what attracted it to me.
    Blessings

    Hi Joe, 😀

    Great post, thanks for sharing!

    The challenge really is to learn to let go of something
    that you really want!

    But I guess it’s a matter of practise?

    Greetings from Denmark,
    Claus 😀

    Hi Joe,

    I am your favorite reader. But I have a question on this basic principle of yours: expectations from time to time lead to disappointments. How can we manage our expectations so well that we can get what we want without jeopardizing our happiness and getting frustrations??

  6. June 18, 2009 at 10:52 am

    Aloha Joe, How would you apply this to a new career where teaching what you write about is the messages I want to deliver to my audiences? thanks for all the wonderful heart provoking words you put out to all of us, Mahalo Pete

    Hi Joe,

    Just wanted to reaffirm that this really works.

    1. State what you want. 2. Release any need for it. 3. Take action on the opportunities you spot.

    I was at the recent Date With Destiny with Tony Robbins and had 2 main objectives.

    a) Meet Tony in-person and assist in one of his interventions. b) Have a conversation with Joe Williams (Tony’s main trainer)

    I released any need for it knowing that I am already happy and that life is already amazing.

    When the oppurtunity arose I took action IMMEDIATELY.. THERE WAS NO HESITATION!

    I fulfilled both my objectives and had an AMAZING experience at the conference!

    I finally understood what you mean by taking inspired action.

    Thanks Joe.

    PS:// I’ve also detailed some of my experiences since DWD at nivint.wordpress.com. It’s Attractor Factor at work…. brilliant book by the way.

    Dear Joe Vitale!
    Thousand thanks for your method!
    It works particularly perfect with scientific writing.

    That’s a cool story about how we can manifest without making a big deal out of it… which is really the essence of the concept. There was a time before The Secret when I casually created my life, but then this film and other content got me thinking… maybe I can create the really FUN stuff instead of limiting myself.

    Of course that’s true but for some time I made too big a deal of it all. I visualized, directed energy, and so forth which is great but I had to again learn to relax and not “sweat it” so to speak before I could begin to allow miracles on a daily basis. I guess other readers can relate to this as well.

    Hi Dr. Vitale,

    I feel funny kind of “placing a request” (like you’re a radio DJ!) with you. But, I think it would be pretty cool to read your thoughts about what’s going on in Iran right now, filtered through the LOA.

    Just a thought.

    Thank you for all that you do,

    Will

    What if what you want is not a physical item-such as “Success” do I see myself as happy and abundant & then release that thought?

    I wanted your book, The Attractor Factor, and ordered it through Amazon.com. Then something annoyed me, and I wrote an unpleasant comment to you about wasting money on that book.

    I’m Sorry. Please Forgive Me.

    Amazon wrote back saying your book was no longer available, and cancelled my order. Ah, well. I tried to write again to you – an apology – but it didn’t go through. So, I dropped the subject.

    2 weeks ago, my friend found your book in a store and bought it for me, and GAVE it to me. So, your book came to me, paid by someone else, and — as I go through it — it is NOT a waste of time or money, and next time I find one in a book store, I will purchase it to give to someone else!!!

    I am Grateful. Thank You.

    Hi Joe
    A while ago I regretfully sold my 1990 Nissan 300ZX to my son. A few months later I told him that if he wanted to sell it to keep me in mind as I’d buy it back. Shortly after that he bought himself another car and put the Nissan up for sale. Unfortunately at the time I didn’t have the cash for the car and so was resigned to not re purchasing it, and subsequently put it out of my mind. My son didn’t sell the car and it sat in his driveway for several months. Then one day out of the blue he rang me and said if I still wanted the Nissan it was mine. So, Joe, your stating a need then detaching myself from the car really worked.

    MAN!! If you don’t mind me asking how much did you buy the car for? Do you still call it after his daughters name?
