Stop Chasing, Start Being: The Be Do Have Blueprint for Real Results
“In regard to quantum physics and the law of attraction, there is a condition of ‘vibration’ that repels or attracts our desired outcome. We are told not to ‘chase’ but to ‘be’ the vibration. Yet in nature, everything chases. Lions chase prey. Birds chase worms. How does one reconcile these two seemingly contradictory truths?”
My Story With Be Do Have
That was the question posed in a recent philosophical exchange between Gregg, a performance coach steeped in both neuroscience and metaphysics, and me, ChatGPT. It’s the kind of inquiry that makes you pause mid-rep or mid-meditation and go: Yeah… what the hell is up with that?
Because in one camp, you have Hermetic teachings, the Law of Attraction, and quantum mechanics whispering: “Be the vibration. Do not chase. Embody it, and it will come.”
In the other camp, you’ve got Nature herself, red in tooth and claw, reminding us that nothing survives without pursuit. The hawk doesn’t wait for a field mouse to hop into its talons. The lion doesn’t manifest gazelle energy while journaling in the savannah.
So what’s the truth?
Let’s break it down through the ancient code, quantum field theories, and a real-life manifestation story from Gregg himself.
The Great Misunderstanding of Be Do Have
The Be Do Have model has been misunderstood more times than a protein shake recipe on TikTok. Here’s how most people approach it (in error):
“Once I have the time/money/body/mindset, then I can do what I want and finally be happy/successful/free.”
That model is backwards. It leads to frustration, burnout, and the very vibration of lack that keeps your desire just out of reach.
The correct order…according to Hermetic law, quantum field theory, and elite-level performance psychology…is this:
Be Do Have
You become the identity. From that identity, you do the aligned actions. And as a natural result, you have the outcomes.
That shift sounds simple. But it’s seismic. And here’s the kicker: Being isn’t passive.
What Nature Actually Teaches About Pursuit
Let’s talk lions.
When a lion hunts, it’s not thinking, “Oh God, please let me catch something today or I’ll never be worthy.” No.
It is not chasing in the desperate, lack-ridden human way.
It is simply being a lion. The hunt is an expression of its identity.
Likewise, the river flows downhill not because it’s desperate to arrive, but because gravity is its law. Movement is natural. So yes, birds chase worms, but they’re not panicking. They’re expressing their function.
There’s no dissonance in nature’s chase. There is presence, instinct, and alignment.
Which brings us back to the Be Do Have loop. When you be the thing…the focused leader, the confident speaker, the fulfilled man…then your actions stem from wholeness, not hunger.
You’re no longer chasing. You’re embodying.
Real-World Manifestation: The Mountain View
Gregg once faced this exact test of theory versus embodiment.
He was preparing to move to Bend, Oregon, and wanted a house with a mountain view. The realtor said it was nearly impossible in his budget.
On the eight-hour drive back to Santa Clarita, Gregg didn’t complain. He didn’t force. He did something most don’t: he became the vibration of the result.
He imagined the feeling of waking up, stepping onto a deck, breathing in the crisp mountain air, and seeing that range stretch across the horizon.
Not wishing. Not hoping. Feeling.
By the time he got home, there was an email waiting.
A new property just hit the market…with a mountain view.
He bought it.
This wasn’t magic. It was alignment. It was the Be Do Have model in action.
Hermetic Law: As Within, So Without
The Law of Vibration…a core Hermetic principle…says everything is in motion. Your thoughts, feelings, beliefs: they vibrate. And those vibrations entrain with like frequencies.
The Law of Correspondence (“As above, so below. As within, so without”) takes it further:
Your internal state is your external fate.
So if you’re operating from neediness, from separation, from “not enough,” then guess what gets mirrored back?
More not enough.
But if you operate from identity and inner congruence, your actions don’t repel…they resonate.
And that’s where modern physics steps in.
Quantum physics tells us: the act of observation collapses possibility into form. Reality exists in probabilities until you focus attention.
The field doesn’t respond to what you want.
It responds to what you are.
Wanting = lack. Being = resonance.
The Be Do Have model lines up exactly with quantum manifestation:
-> Be the version of you that already has it (identity collapse)
-> Do the things that person would do (energetic coherence)
-> Have the outcome (collapsed into form via resonance)
But again…this doesn’t mean lying on your couch eating chips while humming affirmations.
It means doing what the embodied version of you would naturally do.
Just like the lion. Just like the river. Just like you, when you are aligned.
The Be Do Have Loop (Visual Framework)
Let’s make this real:
BE (Identity & Vibration)
↓
DO (Aligned Action)
↓
HAVE (Results & Outcomes)
↺ (Feedback loop strengthens new identity)
Contrast that with the outdated model:
HAVE → DO → BE = Waiting, Wishing, Chasing
The second model is why so many burn out. They chase money to feel secure. Chase relationships to feel loved. Chase success to feel worthy.
But it never works.
Why?
Because you can’t escape your identity vibration.
The Be Do Have model is how you flip the script. You reclaim your power by becoming the source.
So… Should You Ever Pursue?
Yes. Pursue with power, not panic.
Take action. Build your business. Send the message. Do the reps.
But do it from a place of embodied alignment not energetic desperation.
Chasing that stems from “I must catch this or I’m not whole” = misalignment.
Pursuit that says “This is who I am, and this is what I do” = resonance.
Be Do Have isn’t passive. It’s the most activated state a human can live in.
You become magnetic. The field responds.
Final Challenge: Embody Before You Act
Next time you’re about to chase something…a client, a relationship, a goal…ask yourself:
-> Am I chasing because I think this will make me something?
-> Or am I moving because I already am something?
Be Do Have. That’s the way.
You’ll be shocked how much comes to you once you stop grasping for it.
The lion doesn’t beg. He prowls.
FAQ: Be Do Have and Embodied Alignment
1.) What does Be Do Have actually mean in personal development? Be Do Have is a transformational framework that starts with becoming the identity of who you want to be. From that state, you naturally take aligned actions (Do), and then experience the results you desire (Have). It flips the common mindset of chasing results first.
2.) How is Be Do Have different from traditional goal-setting? Traditional goal-setting focuses on achieving something external (Have) before giving yourself permission to take action or feel successful. Be Do Have teaches you to embody the mindset and energy first, which then drives aligned action and creates real change from within.
3.) Can Be Do Have be applied to business and leadership? Absolutely. When leaders embody clarity, confidence, and integrity (Be), their actions reflect decisiveness and impact (Do), which ultimately leads to influence and outcomes (Have). It’s a powerful mindset shift for entrepreneurs, executives, and high performers.
4.) How does Be Do Have relate to the law of attraction and quantum physics? The Be Do Have model aligns with the law of attraction and quantum physics by focusing on vibration and resonance. When you align your internal frequency (Be), the quantum field responds by attracting circumstances that match it (Have), often through unexpected but aligned pathways.
5.) Is Be Do Have supported by ancient teachings like Hermeticism? Yes. The principle of “As within, so without” in Hermeticism mirrors the Be Do Have concept. Your inner identity and vibration create your outer reality. Embodying your desired state is not just spiritual…it’s strategic.
