The Secret / Tajna

Godinu dana unazad, život oko mene počeo se rušti Radila sam do iznemoglosti Moj je otac iznenada umro i moji odnosi sa drugima bili su slabi Tada nisam znala da če iz mog največeg očaja proizači največi dar Bili mi je dato da uvidim u veliku tajnu Počela sam tragati za tajnom kroz povjest TAJNA JE BILA POKOPANA ZA TAJNOM SE ŽUDJELO TAJNA JE BILA POTISNUTA Nisam mogla vjerovati koji svi ovi ljudi znali za ovo To su bili največji ljudi u ljudskoji povjesti. Sve što sam željela, je podjeliti ovu tajnu sa svjetom Počela sam tragati za ljudima koji danas žive a znaju za tajnu Jedan za drugim počeli su nicati. Znaj ovo, tajna ti daje sve što želiš. Veselje, zdravlje, bogatstvo Možete imati, ili raditi. ili biti što god si poželite. Mi možemo imati što god se odlučimo, negledajuči koliko je to golemo. U kakvom stanu ili kuči želite živjeti? Da li želite biti milijonar? Kakav biznis bi voljeli imati? Da li želite biti više uspješni? Šta stvarno želite? Vidio sam puno čida koja su se desila ljudima. Financijska čuda, Nevjerovatna fizička i psihička ozdravljenja, popravili su se odnosi sa drugima Sve to se dešava samo zbog znanja, kako primjeniti tajnu Ovo je velika tajna života. Tajna. Tajna je odgovor na sve ono što je bilo i prošlo, sve ono što jeste sada, i sve ono što če ikada i biti. Emerson 1803-1882 Vi sada najverovatnije sjedite tamo i mislite si. šta je ova tajna. Ja če vam ispričati kako sam ja došo do shvatanja. Mi svi smo podložnin istim silama. Svi mi živimo pod istim zakonima. Zakoni prirode su toliko precizni Da nemamo nikakvih problema da napravimo rakete za u svemir Možemo poslati ljude na mjesec I njihovo pristajanje na mjesecu možemo predviditi do sekunde tačno. Nije važno da li ste Indijac Ili ste iz Australije ili Novog Zelanda Stockholma ili Londona, ili Torontoa ili Montreala, ili New Yorka... Svi mi imamo posla sa to istom silom. Jednim zakonom. To je "Privlačenje" Tajna je, Zakon Privlačenja! Sve to što vam dolaz u životu, vi to privlačite. To vi sebi privlačite zbog slika koje vrtite u mislima. To je ono o čemu razmišljate Pogledajte, što god se vam u mislima vrti Vi to privlačite. E sad, to su mudraci oduvjeka znali. Možete se vratiti čak do starih Babilonaca Oduvjek su znali ovo To je malo grupa odabranih ljudi Zašto mislite, da samo 1% ljudi na svjetu Zarađuje 96% svih para koje se zarade na svjetu. Mislite li da je to po nesreči tako postalo? Nije po nereči tako postalo! Tako je zamišljeno! Oni razumiju nešto više. Oni razumiju tajnu. A sad ste i vi upoznati u tajnu. Najlakši nači za objasniti zakon privlačenja je tako, da sami sebe zamislite kao magnet. I znam da magnet ima privlačenje. Jednostavno rečeno, zakon privlačenja je u biti slično privlači slično sebi. Mi u biti govorimo o razini misli. Na nama je da se držimo misli onog čega si želimo Moramo imati jasnu sliku u mislima onog što želimo. I od tu počnemo pozivati taj največi zakon prirode, A to je Zakon Privlačenja Vi postajate ono o čemu najviše mislite Ali i privlačite ono o čemu razmišljate. Ako to možete vidjeti ovdje Onda čete to i držati ovdje Taj princip svodi se na tri jednostavne rječi: M I S L I !!!! P O S T A J U !!!! S T V A R I !!!! Što velika večina ljudi ne razumije, je to, da misli imaju frekvencu Svaka misao ima svoju frekvencu Mi možemo mjeriti misli. I ako imate misao koja se vam vrti po glavi non-stop Ili ako si to zamišljate u mislima Da mi je imati nov auto Da mi je imati para koliko mi treba, otvoriti poduzeče Pronači sorodnu dušu Ako si to zamišljate, kako bi izgledalo Vi šalje tu frekvencu non-stop Misli pošiljaju vani taj magnetni signal Koji crta paralele nazad Nazad tebi Zamislite sebe kako živite u obilju I to čete privuči Uvjek djeluje, svaki put Kod svakoga Evo gdje je problem Večina ljudi misli o onome što ne žele I čude se žašto se im dogođaju iste stvari non-stop Zakon privlačenja ne zanima da li ti smartaš nešto dobro ili slabo Iil nešto želiš ili ne želiš Zakon privlačenja reaguje na vaše misli I kad sjednete i krenete gledati u nagomilane dugove Usput se još osječate grozno zbog toga Takav signal čete pošiljati van "Da mi je isplivati iz dugova" Tako se ubjeđuješ Osječate to u svakom djelu tjela Toga čete dobiti još više Zakon privlačenja je zaista poslušan Kada gledaš u nešto što želiš I fokusiraš se na to sa svom svojom pažnjom ZAKON PRIVLAČENJA ČE VAM DATI ŠTO ŽELITE SVAKI PUT Ka se fokusirate na nešto što NE ŽELITE NE ŽELIM kasniti, NE ŽELIM kasniti Ti u biti tako pozivaš da to se to stvori Zakon privlačenje ne čuje da ti to ne želiš Zato se to i ponavlja, ponovo i ponovo i ponovo Zakon privlačenja nije sudac da sudi šta je dobro i šta slabo Zakon privlačenja stvara to šta misliš Zakon privlačenja uvjek djeluje Dal ti to vjerovo i razumijo ili ne, Uvjek djeluje !!! Radi kad god misliš Kad god se ti misli vrte po glavi, Zakon privlačenja je u djelovanju Kad razmišljate o prošlosti Ili o sadašnjosti ili o bodučnosti Zakon privlačenja djeluje non - stop Nemožeš pritisnuti na pauzu, nema stajanja On je vječan, non - stop je u pogonu Kao što su i vaše misli Stvaranje je procesi koji je uvjek na djelu Svaki put kad netko imao misao Ili produženo razmišljanje ili sikiranje Oni su u stvaralačkom procesu Nešto če nastati iz tih misli Zakon privlačenja kaže: "Dobičeš što god kažeš i fukusiraš se na to" Zanači, ako se uzrujavaš, i misliš "kako može biti ovako slabo" Tako stvaraš još više, "kako može biti ovako slabo" Šta je ovo, ovo ja neču jesti Imao sam stundenta po imenu Robert Robert je bio istospolno opredeljen I prijavijo se na konkurs, koji sam nudio preko interneta Tako je imao dostup do moje e-mail adrese Istakao je sve mračne realnosti svog života. Na poslu, svi ljudi su se zarotili protiv njega Pod stresom je bio konstantno zbog toga što su svi bili gadni do njega. Kada je šeto po ulici, rekao je Gdje god je kreno, sustreto je homofobične ljude Koji su ga htjeli na bilo kakav zlostavljati On je hteo postati stand-up komedijant I kad je otišo na poso, provaljivati zeze i zajebancije Svi su ga ispljuvali Zato što je istospolno usmjeren Njegov život bio je pun žalosti i bjede I sve se vrtjelo oko ideje da je napadnut zato što je bio gej. Prvo sam ga učim: On je svoju svoju pažnju fokusirao na ono što nije volijo Rekao sam mu neka pogleda nazad u e-mailove koje mi je poslao Pročitaj još jednom što si napiso Pogledaj ovo, ti mi pričaš samo o onome što ne voliš / želiš Odma mogu vidjeti na tebi da te to uzbuđuje Kada si uzbuđen zbog nečega i dobro usmjeren u to Na takav način još brže se to sve desi E posle je počeo gledati na stvari drugačije Fokusiran biti na ono što ne voliš / želiš I posle je počeo se zaista truditi Do kakvih promjena je sve došlo nakon 6-8 mjeseci Bilo je nevjerovatno Počeo je zapažati, da svi suradnici na poslu Koji su ga prije maltretirali Ili su bili prebačeni na drugo odeljenje Ili su napustili poso Ili su mu totalno dali mir Onda je zaista zavolijo svoj poso Počeo je zapažati, da kada hoda po ulici Da niko ga više nije maltretiro Jednostavno takvih ljudi više nije bilo oko njega Kad je nastupao i izvodio skečeve Počeo je dobivati aplauze i niko ga nije izsmijavao Cjeli mu se je život promjenio Zato što je preusmjerio svoju pažnju od onoga što ne želi Onoga čega se je bojao i želio izbječi I počeo se fokusirati sa svojom pažnjom u ono što želi postiči Znači mi možemo biti vrlo pozitivno usmjereni I tako privlačimo pozitivne ljude, događaje i okolnosti Ali mi možemo biti i vrlo negativno usmjereni, i vrlo ljuti U tom slučaju težnja je ka negativnim ljudima negativne okolnostni I tako stvoriš privlačenje k sebi Onih misli kojih smo najviše svjestni Negledajuči da li si svjestan tih misli Ili ih nisi svjestan U tome je bit Ako malo bolje pogledaš Vezi tajne koju opisujem, i moč misli Snagu koju ima moč namjere u našim svakodnevnom životu Svuda oko nas se nalazi Samo otvorenim očima moramo hodati I gledati Možete zakon privlačenja vidjeti gdje god pogledate Vi to vuče sve prema sebi Ljude, posao. okolnosti, zdravlje, bogastvo, dugove, radost Auto koje voziš Gdje god da si stanovao do sada I sve to si navukao na se, kao magnet O čemu razmišljaš To privlačiš Tvoj je život fizička manifestacija Misli koje se ti vrte po glavi Mislim, ja vam ne pričam sve ovo bez veze nešto Samo zato što bi ja želeo da je tako Ili da si nešto umišljam, neke budaleštine Ja vam govorim iz dubokog osnovnog razumjevanja Kvantna fizika zaista počinje ukazivati na ovo otkriće Ona kaže, da nemože postojati svemir ili nešto drugo Brez da bi to naš um prije stvorio Naš um u biti kroji i prikraja Baš to što vidiš ispred sebe Eh sad, ako ti to nerazmiješ još neznači da bih trebao to odbiti Ti ni o elektriki neznaš bog zna šta pa je koristiš Kao prvo nitko uopšte i nezna šta elektrika uopšte jeste I negledajuči na to koristiš se njome Da li znaš kako djeluje?

I didn't particularly attract the debt, And you do it with your thoughts. The leaders in the past who had the secret wanted to keep the power, and not share the power. So, they kept people ignorant of the secret. People went to work, they did their job, they came home. With no power, because the secret was kept in the few. We live in a Universe in which there are laws. Just as there's Law of Gravity; if you fall off the building, it doesn't matter whether you're a good person or a bad person, you're gonna hit the ground. Everything that surround you right now in your life, including the things you're complaining about, you've attracted. Now, I know at first blush, that's gonna be something that you hate to hear. You're gonna immediately say I didn't attract the car accident, I didn't attract this particular client, I didn't attract...whatever it happens to be that you're complaining about. And I'm here to be a little bit in your face and to say "yes, you did attract it". And this is one of the hardest concepts to get. But once you've excepted it, it's life-transforming. This is part of the overall giant secret here. And most of us attract by default. We just think that we don't have any control over it, our thoughts are on auto-pilot, our feelings are on auto-pilot and so everything is just brought to us by default. Now, if this is your first time to hear this it may feel like: "oh, I have to now monitor my thoughts, this is gonna be a lot of work". It will seem like that at first, but that's where the fun begins. We do not encourage that you try to monitor your thoughts. That would sort of make you crazy. There are so many thoughts coming to you from so many different directions about so many different subjects. That's where your emotional guidance system comes in. Your emotions, your emotional guidance system is what helps you to understand what you're thinking. So, your thoughts cause your feelings. The emotions are this incredible gift that we have. To let us know what we're attracting. There are only two emotions from our perspective. One feels good and one feels bad. You call them all sorts of different things, but essentially all of those negative emotions, whether you call it guilt or anger, or frustration, all feel much the same - they do not feel good. And all of those, our guidance saying, that what you're thinking about right now is not in line with what you are really wanting. On another level, it's called "bad frequency" or "bad vibes" or whatever you wanna call it. The one that feels good, that feeling of hope or happiness or love, that good feeling, that positive emotion is, guidance saying, that what you're thinking right now is in alignment with what you're want. So, it's really so simple. It's right there. The answers are: what am I attracting right now? How do you feel? I feel good. Well good. keep doing that. Our feelings are a feedback mechanism to us about whether we're on track or not, whether we're on course or off course. The better you feel, the more in alignment you are. The worse you feel, the more out of alignment you are. What you are doing is you are moving through the variety of your day-to-day experience; is you're offering thoughts that are literally formulating your future experience. And you can tell by the way you feel if the things that you're moving toward will please you when you get there. And you're getting exactly what you're feeling about, not so much what you're thinking about. That's why people if they stub their toe, out of bed, they tend to spiral. The whole day goes like that, you know. They have no clue that a simple shifting of their emotions can change their entire day, and life. If you start out having a good day and you're in that particular happy feeling, as long as you don't allow something to change your mood, you're gonna continue to attract, by the Law of Attraction, more situations, circumstances, people that sustain that happy feeling. Good days, bad days, rich get richer, poor gets poorer... it's all about what these people are predominately and continually feeling. You can begin, right now, to feel healthy. You can begin to feel prosperous. You can begin to feel the love that surrounding you even if it's not there. And what will happen is the Universe will correspond to the nature of your song, the Universe will correspond to the nature of that inner feeling and manifest, because that's the way you feel. So basically, what you focus on with thought and feeling is what you're attracting to your experience whether or not it's something you want. Every single time. No exception. It's hard to swallow, but when we can begin to open ourselves up to that ramifications are awesome. It means that whatever thought has done in your life, it can be undone through a shift in your awareness. It's really important that you feel good. Because this "feeling good" is what goes out as a signal into the Universe and starts to attract more of itself to you. So, the more you can feel good, the more you will attract the things that help you feel good and all they keep bringing you up, higher and higher. When you're feeling down, do you know that you can change it like that. Put on a beautiful piece of music. Start singing. That'll change your emotion. Or think of something beautiful. Think of a baby, maybe one you love, and draw on it. Really keep that thought in your mind, walk everything out but that thought. I guarantee you'll start to feel good. This principle applies to your family pet, for instance which I believe they're wonderful because they put you in a great emotional state. When you feel love for your pet that's a great state of love that's going to bring goodness into your life. What a gift that is. And when you begin to get a hang of this, when you begin to guide your thoughts based upon the way they feel, and you begin to notice the correlation between what you're feeling and thinking and what's coming back to you, before you know it, you will know that you're the creator of your own reality. And those who are watching from a distance will stand in amazement at the perfect life you live. Since I learned the secret and started applying it to my life, my life has truly become magical, I think the kind of life that everybody dreams of and I live on a day-to-day basis. I live in a $4.5 million mansion, I have a wife to die for, I get to vacation in all the fabulous spots of the world, I've climbed mountains, I've explored, I've been on safari... And all of this happened, and continues to happen, because of knowing how to apply the secret. Life can be absolutely phenomenal, and it should be. And it will be when you start using the secret. Well, a lot of people ask me what their job is in the creative process and what the job of the Universe is. So let's look at that for a moment. Let's use this metaphor: if you think about Aladdin and his lamp, you've probably heard of that one, Aladdin picks up the lamp, he dust it off and out pops the genie. And the genie always says one thing: <i>"Your wish is my command." </i> If you trace the story back to its origins, you know, we now think that there's three wishes, but if you if you trace the story back to its origins, there's absolutely no limit whatsoever to the wishes. Think about that one. Now, let's take this metaphor, blow it up and apply it to you and your life. Remember, Aladdin is the one who always asks for what he wants. Then you've got the Universe at large which is this grand genie. And traditions have called that so many different things - the holly guardian angel, your higher self, I mean we can put any label on it, and you choose the one that works best for you. But every tradition has told us there's something bigger than us. And the genie always says one thing: <i>"Your wish is my command." </i> So, we'd like to say to you that the creative process is a three step process. Step one is: you must ask for what you want. You do not need use words to ask. In fact, the Universe is not even hearing the words from you. The Universe is responding completely to your thought. What is you really want? Sit down and write it on a piece of paper. Write it in the present tense. You might begin by writing, "I am so happy and grateful now that..." and then explain how do you want your life to be in every area. And this is really fun. This is like having the Universe as your catalogue and you flip through, and you go "well, I'd like to have this experience, and I'd like to have that product, and I'd like to have a person like that", it is you just placing your order with the Universe. It's really that easy. The second step is: answer. An answer to what you're asking. And that is not your work in your physical form. The Universe will do that step for you. All of the Universal forces are responding with the thoughts that you set in motion. <i>"Your wish is my command." </i> And the Universe will start to rearrange itself to make it happen for you. Most of us have never allowed ourselves to want what we truly want because we can't see how it's going to manifest. If you do just a little research, it is gonna become evident to you that anyone that ever accomplished anything did not know how they were gonna do it, they only knew they were gonna do it. You do not need to know how it's gonna come about. You do not need to know how the Universe will rearrange itself. You don't know how. It'll be shown to you you will attract the way. So, then our friend say, something must be going terribly wrong. Because, I know I am asking so where is my stuff. And we say, you are asking, you are completing step one, you can't help but do that. The Universe is answering, every time. No exception. But there is another step that you must understand, and it is called step three, which is the receiving step which means, you must bring yourself into alignment with what you're asking for. When you're in alignment with what you want, you feel wonderful. That's where the enthusiasm is, that's where joy is, that's where the appreciation is, that's where that feeling of passion is. But when you are feeling despair, or fear, or anger, those are strong indications that you are not right now in alignment with what you're asking for. And so, when you begin to realize that the way you feel is everything, and you begin to direct your thoughts based upon how they feel, little by little you can find the feeling place of it, and now you are one with it, and now it must manifest into your experience. And when you turn that fantasy into a fact you're in the position build bigger and better fantasies and that, my friend is the creative process. So, the Law of Attraction, the study and practice of the Law of Attraction is this figuring out what will help you generate the feelings of having it now. Go test-drive that car. Go shop for that home, get in the house, do whatever you have to do to generate the feelings of having it now and remember them. Whatever you can do to do that will help you to literally attract it. It could be, you wake up and it's just there, it's manifested. Or you might get some inspired idea of some action to take. You certainly shouldn't be going, "well, I could do it this way but man I hate that" 'cause you're not on the right track if that's the case. Action will sometimes be required, but if you're really doing it in line with what Universe is trying to deliver, it's gonna feel joyous, you're gonna feel so alive, time will just stop, you could do it all day... The Universe likes speed. Don't delay, don't second guess, don't doubt, when the opportunity's there, when the impulse is there, when the intuitive nudge from within is there - act. That's your job. And that's all you have to do. You will attract everything that you require. If it's money you need, you'll attract it. If it's people you need, you'll attract it. If it's a certain book you need, you'll attract it. You've got to pay attention to what you're attracted to. Because, as you hold images of what you want you're gonna be attracted to things, they're gonna be attracted to you. But it literally moves into physical reality with and through you. And it does that by law. You can start with nothing. And out of nothing, and out of no way the way will be made. Think of this: a car driving through the night, the headlights only go 100-200 ft forward, and you can make it all the way from California to New York driving through the dark, 'cause all you have to see is the next 200 ft. That's how life tends to unfold before us. If we just trust that the next 200 ft will unfold after that, the next 200 ft will unfold after that... your life will keep unfolding, and it will eventually get you to the destination whatever it is you truly want, because you want. Well, another thing people wonder about is - how long this is gonna take. How long it will take to manifest the car, the relationship, the money, whatever it happens to be... Well, I don't have any rule book that says it's gonna take you 30 minutes, or 3 days, or 30 days. I think it's more a matter of you being in alignment with the Universe itself. Sizes - it's nothing to the Universe. It is no more difficult to attract, on a scientific level, something that we consider huge, to something that we consider infinitesimally small. The Universe does, everything it does with zero effort. Grass doesn't strain to grow, it's effortless. It's just this great design. It's all about what's going on up here. It's about what we put in place, saying, this is big - it's gonna take some time, this is small - oh, I'll give it an hour. You know, those are our rules that we define. There are no rules according to the Universe. If you provide the feelings of having it now, it will respond. Some people have an easier time with little things. So we sometimes say, we'll start with something small, like a cup of coffee. Make it your attention to attract a cup of coffee today. Hold an image of talking to an old friend that you haven't seen for a long time. Somehow another someone is gonna start talking to you about that person. That person's gonna phone you or you'll get a letter from him. People were amazed how did I line up car parks. And I've done this right from when I first understood the secret. I would visualize a car space exactly where I wanted and 95% of the time it would be there for me, and I'd just pull straight in. 5% of the time I'd have to wait just a minute or two and the person would pull out and I'd pull in. So I do that all the time. A lot of people feel stuck or imprisoned or confined by their current circumstances. And I'm trying to point out that, whatever your circumstances right now, that is only your current reality. And current reality will begin to change as a result of watching this and beginning to use the secret. But sometimes it feels like you're stuck because you continue to think the same thoughts over and over again. And so you tend to get the same results over and over again. And the reason is because: most people offer the majority of their thought in response to what they observe You see, if you're just looking at what is then you're just thinking about what is. And when you think about what is, Law of Attraction gives you more of it. And then, if you just observe what is, then you're just thinking about what is. And Law of Attraction gives you more of what is. And then, if you just observe what... We've been over this, have we? You have to find a way that you are approaching what is through a different vantage point. Most people look at their current state of affairs, and they say, "this is who I am". That's not who you are. That's who you were. You see, if you look at your current state of affairs right now, let's say, for instance, that you don't have a lot of money in your bank account, or you don't have the relationship that you want, or your health and fitness isn't up to par, that's not who you are. That's the residual outcome of your past thoughts and actions. So we're constantly living in this residue, if you will, of the thoughts and the actions we've taken in the past. When you look at your current state of affairs and define yourself by that then you doom yourself to have nothing more than the same in the future. What can you do right now to begin to turn your life around? I'll tell you two or three things. Start making a list of things to be grateful for. Start with that, because this shifts your energy, it starts to shift your thinking. Where before this exercise you might be focusing on what you don't have, and you might be focusing on your complaints, and you might be focusing on whatever the problems are; when you do this exercise you start to go in a different direction, you start to be grateful for all the things that you feel good about. Gratitude is absolutely the way to bring more into your life. Every man knows, that when his wife's appreciating him for the little things he does, what does he wanna do? He wants to do more. It's always about the appreciation. It pulls things in, it attracts support. I've said for many years that whatever we think about and thank about, we bring about. Because that's that feeling that you have to have, you know, and so for me, there's been such a powerful exercise every morning to get up and say "thank you". And then I start running through what I'm grateful for as I'm going to brush my teeth and do the things I do in the morning. And I'm not just thinking about that I'm doing some road routine but I'm putting it out there and I'm feeling the feelings of gratitude. As soon as you start to feel differently about what you already have, you will start to attract more of the good things, more of the things you can be grateful for. Because, if you look around and say, "well look, I don't have the car I want, I don't have the house I want, I don't have the health I want, I don't have the spouse I want..." Back up. Back up. Those are all the things that you don't want. Focus on what you already have that you're grateful for. And it might be, you have the eyes to watch this. It might be the clothes that you have. Yes, you might prefer something else and you might get something else pretty soon if you start feeling grateful for what you have. I think everybody goes through times when they say, "oh man, things aren't working right" or "things are going bad". And there were some things going on in my family... and I found a rock. And I'm just sitting here holding this rock, you might see me carrying around. I found a rock. I stuck it in my pocket. And I said, "you know what, every time I touch this rock I'm gonna think of something that I'm grateful for. And so every morning, when I get up in the morning, I pick it up off the dresser and put it in my pocket, and I go through the things that I am grateful for. At night, what do you do? You empty your pocket and there it is again. And I've had some different experiences with that. I've had some amazing experiences. I had a guy from South Africa. He saw me dropping it. He said "what is that"? <i>What's that?</i> I explained it to him, so we started calling it the gratitude rock. <i>Gratitude rock.</i> Two weeks later I got an e-mail from him from South Africa. He said, "my son is dying from a rare disease, it's a type of hepatitis". He said, "would you send me three gratitude rocks?" There were just rocks I find off the street, you know, so I said, "sure". I had to make sure that the rocks were very special. And so I went out to the stream, looked, picked up the right rocks and sent them off to him. Four or five months later I get an e-mail from him. He said, "my son's better, now he's doing terrific" and he said, "you need to know something" he said, "we've sold over a thousand rocks at $10 a piece as gratitude rocks, and we raised all this money for charity, thank you very much". And so it's very important to be in an attitude of gratitude, as I call it. Another thing that I would suggest that you do right now to turn your life around, and this is so huge, that I can't find the words to describe just how powerful this can be for you... I took the visualization process from the Apollo programme and instituted it during the 1980's and 90's into the Olympic programme. It was called "Visual Motor Rehearsal". When you visualize, then you materialize. And the interesting thing about the mind is we took Olympic athletes and then hooked them up to sophisticated bio feedback equipment. And had them run their event only in their mind. Incredibly, the same muscles fired in the same sequence, when they were running the race in their mind as where they were running it on the track. How this could be? Because the mind can't distinguish whether you're really doing it or whether it's just a practice. I think, if you've been there in the mind, you go there in the body. When you're visualizing, when you've got that picture playing out in your mind, always, and only, dwell upon the end results. Here's an example: look at the back of your hands right now. Really, look at the back of your hands. The colour of your skin, the freckles, the blood vessels, the rings, the fingernails, the fake fingernails... take in all those details right before you close your eyes. And then see those hands, your fingers wrapping around the steering wheel of your brand new car. This is such a holographic experience, so real, so real in this moment, that you don't even feel like you need the car because, it feels like you're already have it. It's the feeling that really creates the attraction, not just picture of the thought. I think, for a lot of people, they think, "well if I think the positive thoughts or if I visualize having what I want that'll be enough", but if you're doing that and still not feeling abundant or whatever than it doesn't, for my mind, really create the power of the attraction. This is where the secret actually moves into action. You put yourself in a feeling place of really being in that car, not "oh, I wish I could get that car", or "someday I'll have that car". Because, that's the very definite feeling associated with that. It's not "in an hour", it's not, you know, "it's in the future", - if you stay in that feeling, it will always be in the future. Feel the joy, feel the happiness. No matter how silly it seems in that dark and quiet room, you're going "woohoo!" Do it! A lot of people will say, you know "come on, do I have to do that?" How bad do you want change? Now, that feeling and that inner seeing will begin to be an open doorway through which the power of the Universe will begin to express. Our job is not to figure out the how. The how will show up out of the commitment and the belief and the what. The hows are the domain of the Universe. It always knows the shortest, quickest, fastest, most harmonious way between you and your dream. If you're turning over to the Universe you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered to you. This is where magic and miracles happen. I would say that you wanna do this virtually daily, but my disclaimer is: this should never be a chore. What's really bottom line importance here to the whole secret is feeling good. You wanna feel exhilarated by this whole process. You wanna be high, happy, in tune as much as possible. The only difference between people who really are living this way and people who aren't living in the magic of life is that the people who are living in the magic of life have habituated ways of being. They have habituated this process and magic happens with them wherever they go. Because they remember it and they do it all the time, not as a one-time event. People hold that for a while, and they're really a champion at it, and they say, "you know what, I'm fired up, I saw this programme and I'm gonna change my life. And yet, you know, results aren't showing, results aren't showing. And beneath the surface it's just about ready to break through. And someone will look at the surface results and go, "this stuff doesn't work!" And you know what, the Universe says "your wish is my command". And it goes down. Knowing the Law of Attraction I wanted to really put it to use and to is if and, you know, what will happen. And in 1995 I started to create something called "the vision board", where I'd take something that I would want to achieve or something that I'd want to attract, like a car, or a watch or a soul mate of may dreams, and I'd put a picture of what I want right upon this board called "the vision board". And every day I would sit in my office and I would look up at this board and I would start to visualize, I'd really get into the state of having already acquired it. I was getting ready to move and so we put all the furniture, all the boxes in the storage. And I made three different moves over a period of five years. And I ended up in California and bought this house, renovated it for a year, and then had all the stuff brought from my former home five years earlier. One morning, at 7.30 in the morning, my son comes into my office and one of the boxes that was sealed for five years was right at the doorstep. And my son Keanon was sitting on the box, banging away at the box. And I said, "sweetheart, will you please stop, I'm doing some work here", and he says <i>"What's in the boxes, daddy?" </i> And I said, "well honey, those are my vision boards." <i>"What's a vision board?" </i> I said, "well, it's where I put all my goals up, I cut them out and put all my goals up that I want to achieve in my life. And of course, at 5 and a half years old he didn't understand. And so I said, "sweetie, let me just show you, that'll be the easiest way to do it." And so I cut the box open and when I pulled out the vision boards, there was the picture on there of a home that I was visualizing five years earlier and what shocking to me was we were living in that house, not a house like it. I bought my dream home, renovated it and didn't even know it. I looked at that house and I started to cry, 'cause I was just blown away. <i>"Why are you crying?" </i> "Honey, I finally understand how the Law of Attraction works, I finally understand the power of visualization, I finally understand everything that I've read, everything that I worked with, my whole life, the way I built companies - it worked for my home as well. And I bought our dream home and didn't even know it." Decide what you want, believe you can have it, believe you deserve it, believe it's possible for you and then close your eyes every day for a several minutes and visualize having what you already want and feeling the feelings of already having them. Come out of that, and focus on what you're grateful for already. And really be enjoyed. And then go into your day and release it to the Universe and trust that the Universe will figure out how to manifest it. You know, the secret was definitely a real transformation for me 'cause I grew up in a family where my dad was very negative. He thought that rich people were people that would rip everyone off, he thought that anyone who had money must have deceived somebody, so I grew up with a lot of beliefs about money; that if you had it, it made you bad, that only evil people had money, and that money doesn't grown on trees, that was the big one, "who do you think I am, Rockefeller?", that was one of his favourite phrases. So, I grew up truly believing that life was difficult, that it was hard, that you have to struggle, and it was only when I met W. Clement Stone that I literally began to shift my life. When I was working with Stone he said, "I want you to set a goal that's so big that if you achieved it it would blow your mind. And you would know it's only because of what I've thought you that you would have achieved this goal. Well, at the time I was making about $8.000 a year. And for some reason, I wanted something that it was really measurable, so I said, "I wanna make $100.000 in a year". And I had no idea how I can do that, I saw no strategy, no possibility, but I just said, "I'm gonna declare that, I'm gonna believe it, I'm gonna act as if it's true and release it". And so I did that. And one of the things he thought me was every day to close your eyes and visualize the goal as if it's already achieved. And I had actually made a $100.000 bill that I put on the ceiling, so the first thing I'd see whenever I woke up, I'd look up and there it was, It would remind me this was my intention. And then, I would close my eyes and visualize having this $100.000 in your life style. And interestingly enough, nothing major happened for about 30 days. I didn't have any great breakthrough ideas, no one was offering me more money. And all of the sudden, I was in the shower, it was about 4 weeks of doing it and I had a $100.000 idea, just came right into my head. I had a book I had written and I said, "if I could sell 400.000 copies of my book at a quarter each, that would be $100.000 Now, the book was there, but I never had this thought. And one of the secrets I think is that Now, I didn't know how to do that, I didn't know how I was gonna sell 400.000 copies, we'd never done that. And then I saw the National Enquirer at a supermarket. I'd seen that millions of times, it was just background. And all of a sudden it jumped out on me as foreground and I thought, "wow, if readers knew about my book, certainly 400.000 people would go out and buy it. In about 6 weeks later I gave the talk at Hunter college in New York. There's 6.000 teachers. This lady comes up at the end and she says: <i>"That was a great talk, I'd like to interview you. </i> <i>Let me give you my card." </i> I said, "who do you write for?" <i>"I'm a freelance, but I sell most of my stuff to the National Enquirer." </i> You know, I had this little theme from "Twilight Zone" go off in my head. Wow, this stuff's really working. So, that article came out and our book sale started to take off, but the point I wanna make is that I was attracting into my life all these different events, including this person and to make a long story short, I did not make $100.000 that year, we made $92.327 but do you think we were like depressed and going, "this doesn't work"? No, we were going, "wow, this is amazing!" And so, my wife said to me, "wow, if it works for $100.000 do you think it would work for a million?" And I said, "I don't know, I think so, let's try it" My publisher actually wrote me a check, as a royalty check for our first "Chicken Soup For The Soul" book and he actually put a smiley face in the signature 'cause it was the first million dollar check he'd ever written. And so, I know from my own experience, because I wanted to test it does this secret really work, and we put it to the test and it absolutely worked. And now I live my life from there every single day. Well I can just imagine what a lot of people that are watching this are thinking, and that is - how can I attract more money into my life? How can I get more of the green stuff? How can I get more of wealth and prosperity? How can I, when I love my job, deal with the credit card debt that I have and the realization that maybe there's a ceiling on the money that can come in, 'cause it's coming to me through my job, how can I bring in more? Intend it. This goes back to one of the things we've been talking about throughout the whole secret: your job is to declare what you would Like to have from the catalogue of the Universe. Well, if cash is one of them, say how much you would like to have. I would like to have $25.000 unexpected income within the next 30 days, or whatever it happens to be. It should be believable for you. Most people have a goal of getting out of debt. That'll keep you in debt forever. Whatever you're thinking about, you will attract. You say, "but it's get out of debt" I don't care if it's "get out" or "get in", if you're thinking debt you're attracting debt. Set up an automatic debt repayment programme and then start to focus on prosperity. So many times people say to me, "well, I'd like to double my income in next year." But then you look at their actions and they're not doing the things that are going to make that happen. And they turn around and around and go, "well, I can't afford that." OK, guess what - your wish is my command. As you are fussing about not having enough money, as you are talking to your friend about not having enough money, as you are feeling unhappy about not having enough money, you're actually activating within yourself or continuing the activation of the thought that is very different from the desire that you have launched. What it just comes down to is you just can't want more money and focus upon not enough. When I first understood the secret I was getting bills every day, I would get a bunch of bills in the mail. And I thought, "this is... how do I turn this around" The Law of Attraction states that what you focus on, you'll get. So, I got a bank statement, I whited out the title and I put a new title in there, I put exactly how much I want to see in the bank. So, what if I just visualize checks coming in the mail? So, I just visualize a bunch of checks coming in the mail. Within just one month, things started to change. And it is amazing. Today I just get checks in the mail. I get a few bills, but I get more checks then bills. I grew up on "you have to work hard for money", "you have to work hard for money" And so, I replace that with "money comes easily and frequently" Now, in the beginning it feels like a lie. Right? There is a part of your brain that will say, "no you liar, it's hard" So, you have to know it's this little tennis match that will go on for a while. When it comes to creating wealth, wealth is a mind set. It's all about how you think. I'd say 80% of my coaching that I do in one-on-one with folks is about the psychology in the way they think. And I know people who are listening will say, "oh you can do it and I can't" Every person has the capability to change the way, their inner relationship and conversation with money. I find so many people who maybe make a tremendous amount of money, but their relationships stink. That's a technical term, by the way. And that's not wealth, it really isn't. You know, you can go after the money and you might get rich, but it doesn't guarantee you'll be wealthy. I'm not suggesting that money isn't a part of wealth, it absolutely is but it's only a part. And then I meet a lot of people who are "spiritual", but they're sick and broke all the time. That's not wealth either. Life is meant to be abundant in all areas. Many people in Western culture are striving for success. They wanna have a bigger home, they want their business to work, they want all of these things. But what I found in my research is that having those things certainly doesn't guarantee what we really want, which is happiness. And that's when all those outer things come. They don't come from going after them first to get happiness - it's backwards. You go for the sense of inner joy, of inner peace, of inner vision first and then all the other things from the outside appear. The secret means for me actually that we are creators of our Universe. And that every wish of what we want to create will manifest in our life. Therefore, it's very important what you wish, what your thoughts are, what your feelings are because it will manifest. Now, one day I went into somebody's home and he was art director of a very famous film producer. And in every corner he had this beautiful image of a woman, a naked woman dressed with the fabric kind of doing this, kind of saying, "I don't look at you, I don't see you" And I said, "I think you have trouble in your romance." <i>"Are you a clairvoyant or something?" </i> "No, but look, in seven places you have exactly that woman." <i> "But I love that kind of painting. I painted it myself." </i> "That's even worse", I said, "because you put all your creation and your creativity in it." Now, this is a gorgeous looking man, he has all these actresses around him because that's the work he does, and he doesn't get romance. I said, "what do you want?" <i>"Well, I wanna date three women a week." </i> "OK, paint yourself with three women and hang it in every corner." Six months later I see him in Europe. I said, "how is your love life?" <i>"Great! They just call me, they all wanna date me." </i> "Because that's your wish." <i>"Now I have like three dates a week. They're fighting over me." </i> "Good on you." <i>"But I really wanna stabilize it a little bit. I want marriage, and I want romance." </i> "Well paint it." So he painted a beautiful romantic relationship. And a year later he got married. He was very happy. Because he put another wish out but he wished it himself for years. But it did not happen, because his wish could not manifest because the outer level of himself (his house), was just contradicting himself all the time. So, if you know this knowledge, you should start playing with it. Inside relationships it's important to first understand who's coming into the relationship. And I don't mean about your partner, I mean about you. How can you ever expect anyone else to enjoy your company if you don't enjoy your own company? And so again, the Law of Attraction, or the secret is about bringing that into your life and you've gotta get really, really clear. Here's the question I want to ask you to consider: do you treat yourself the way that you want other people to treat you? You become the solution for you. Don't like, "now you own me, and you need to get me more", instead give more to yourself. Take time off to give to yourself. And in the sense, you feel yourself up to fullness, where now you can overflow and give it. I got into many relationships, expecting my partner to show me my beauty. I needed to see him showing me my beauty. Because I didn't feel beautiful. Because when I was growing up, my "sheroes" were Charlie's Angels, Wonder Woman, and though they were wonderful women none of them looked like me. It wasn't until I stopped and I fell in love with Lisa, full lips, round hips, mocha skin, Afro, that the rest of the world began to fall in love with Lisa. There's something so magnificent about you. I have been studying me for 44 years. I wanna kiss myself! Because, you're gonna get to love yourself. I'm not talking about conceit. I'm talking about a healthy respect for yourself. And as you love yourself, you'll love others. Sometimes people will say, "those people at work are so negative", or, "the man I live with is so angry", or, "my children are so worrisome to me", and we say, "you must orient yourself to the best part of those people who surround you." We encourage that you get a notebook, and that you make a list of the positive aspects of the people that you spend a lot of time with. There could be someone that you have a terrible experience with, a terrible relationship with. And in the privacy of your own mind, and with quite a bit of work, we will admit, as you focus upon things that you like most those people will become that mostly to you And even though you cannot create in their reality, if they are in the mood or in attitude that doesn't match the mood or attitude that you have about them, they'll zig while you zag. Law of Attraction will not put you in the same space together, you frequencies don't match up. If you knew your potential to feel good, you would ask no one to be different so that you can feel good. You would free yourself of all of that cumbersome impossibility of needing to control the world or control your mate or control your child. For no one else can think for you, no one else can do it. It is only you. Every bit of it you. It's important to recognize that our body is really the product of our thoughts. We're beginning to understand in medical science the degree to which the nature of thoughts and emotions actually determines the physical substance and structure and function of our bodies. We've known in the healing arts of the placebo effect. A placebo is something that supposedly has no impact and no effect on body. Like a sugar pill or something. You tell the patient that this is just its effect, and what happens is that the placebo has the same effect, if not greater effect, than, sometimes, the medication that's supposed to be designed for that effect. So, they found out that the human mind is the biggest factor in the healing arts. More so then sometimes the medication. If somebody is in a situation that they're sick, and they have an alternative to try to explore what is in their mind creating it, versus using medicine, if it's an acute situation that could really bring death to them then obviously the medicine is the wise thing to do rather then explore what the mind is about. So you don't wanna negate medicine, every form of healing has a place. There is only a stream of well-being that flows, you know. It is a stream of pure positive energy. And the Universe, all that we know, is abundant with only that. This is the world that is based upon well-being, a well-being dramatically abounds. And when you're allowing that stream to flow in its fullness, you feel very, very good. And when you are pinching it off a bit you feel not so good. There is only a stream of goodness or well-being which you are allowing or not, and your magnificent emotions are telling you what the mix is, how you're doing in your allowing or your resisting of this connection. You know people who have had terminal disease. Stop and think of the word: dis-ease. Hyphenate the word. That's a body that's not at ease. We've got a thousand different diagnoses and diseases out there. They're just the weak link. They're all the result of one thing: stress. When you're putting off stress on the chain, you putting off stress on the system and one of the links breaks. Our physiology creates disease to give us feedback, to let us know we have an imbalanced perspective and we're not loving, and we're not grateful. So the body signs and symptoms are not something terrible. The question that's frequently asked is when a person has a manifest of a disease in the body temple or some kind of discomfort in their life, through the power of right thinking can it be turn around? And the answer is absolutely yes. On November 23 I was diagnosed with the breast cancer. I truly believed in my heart, with my strong faith, that I was already healed. During the day, all day long, I would just say thank you for my healing. On and on and on I went, "thank you for my healing." I believed in my heart I was healed. I saw myself as if cancer was never in my body. One of the things I did to heal myself was to watch very funny movies. That's all what we'd do, we'd just laugh, laugh, laugh. We couldn't afford to put any stress in my life because we knew stress was one of the worst thing you could do while you're trying to heal yourself. From the time I was diagnosed, which was November 23 to the time I was healed totally, was approximately 3 months. And that's without radiation and chemotherapy. We come with a basic programme. It's called self-healing. You get a wound, it grows back together. You get a bacterial infection, you immune system comes and takes care of those bacteria, and heals it up. The immune system is made to heal itself. Disease cannot live in a body that's in a healthy emotional state. Your body is casting off millions of cells every second, and it's creating millions of new cells. In fact, literally, parts of our body are replaced every day. Other parts take a few months, other parts a couple of years, but within a few years we have a brand new physical body. If you have a disease, and you're focusing on it and you're talking to people about it, you're going to create more disease cells. See yourself living in a perfectly healthy body. Let the doctor look after the disease. Can you feel the difference between having painful arthritis in your hips and feeling fearful about it, or having painful arthritis in your hips and feeling hopeful about it, The difference between fearful and hopeful is the difference between recovery or not. Happier thoughts lead to essentially a happier biochemistry, a happier, healthier body. Negative thoughts, stress seriously degrade the body and the function of the brain. Because it's our thoughts and emotions that are continuously reassembling, reorganizing, recreating our body. Remove physiological stress from the body and the body does what it was designed to do. It heals itself. I've seen kidneys regenerated, I've seen a cancer dissolved, I've seen eyesight improve and come back. I always say that incurable means curable from within. You can change your life and you can heal yourself. Well, my story begins on March 10, 1981 It really changed my whole life, it was the day I would never forget. I crashed an airplane. I ended up in a hospital completely paralysed. My spinal cord was crushed, I broke the first and second cervical vertebrae. My swallowing reflex was destroyed, I couldn't even drink. My diaphragm was destroyed, I couldn't breath. All I could do was blink my eyes. The doctor of course said that all my life I'd be a vegetable, all I'd do was blink my eyes the rest of my life. That's the picture they saw me in, but it didn't matter what they thought of me, the thing was what I thought. I pictured myself being a normal person again walking out of that hospital. The only thing I had to work with in the hospital was my mind, and once you have your mind you can put things back together again. I was set to a respirator and they said I'd never breathe on my own again because my diaphragm was destroyed. And this little voice kept saying to me, "breathe deep, breathe deep". Finally I was freed from it. They were at a loss for an explanation. See, I could not afford to allow anything to come in my mind that would distract me from my goal or from my vision. Well I set the goal to walk out of the hospital on Christmas, that was my goal. I walked out of the hospital on my own two feet. They said it couldn't be done. That's the day I will never forget. For people that are sitting out there right now watching this programme and are hurting, if I'd want to sum up my life and sum up for people what they can do in life I would sum it up this way, in six words: man becomes what he thinks about. We noticed that there are so many people who are living life in a very conditional way, they look out and they see things that are wonderful and they say, "yes we want more of those, we would vote for that, we would support that with our time and energy and money." But then they look out and they see things that they do not want, terrible things that they do no want to live and that they do not want to see others live. And they say, "we've got to do something about getting rid off those things." But they don't realize that as they push against the unwanted they add power to it. In this world, there is a war against poverty, and a war against cancer, and a war against teenage pregnancy, and a war against terrorism, and a war against violence, and a war against terrorism, did we mentioned that there was a war against terrorism... And all of this pushing-against is only adding-to, Because, you can't say no and make it go away. When you shout no Law of Attraction is lining that up. The reason that "what you resist, persists" is because that you're resisting something, you say, "no, I don�t want this thing because it makes me feel this way the way I'm feeling right now." And so, you just putting out this really strong emotion of, "wow, I don't really like this feeling", and it's there, it's racing towards you. You know, anti-war movement creates more war. The anti-drug movement has actually created more drugs. Because we're focusing on what we don't want - drugs. People would say, "well shouldn't I focus upon that, that is true" And we say, "that is like saying because someone gave the attention to something they did not want, long enough that now it has manifested I should do it too." And we say, "we don't really understand that reasoning." Mother Teresa was brilliant. She said, "I will never attend an anti-war rally, if you have a peace rally, invite me." You know, she knew. She understood the secret. I mean, look what she manifested in the world. So, if you're anti-war, be pro peace. If you're anti-hunger, be pro people having more than enough to eat. If you anti particular politician, be pro his opponent. Often elections are tipped in the favour of the person that people are really against because he's getting all the energy and all the focus. You wanna focus on what you want and not what you don't want. It's OK to notice what you don't want because that gives you contrast and you say, "this is what I do want." But the fact is that the more you talk what you don't want, or you talk about how bad it is, read about all of that all the time and then say, "oh how terrible it is", you are creating more of that. You know, so many times people say to me, "well James, I have to be informed." Maybe you have to be informed, but you don't have to be inundated. Learn to become still and to take you attention away from what you don't want and all the emotional charge around it, and place the attention on what you wish to experience. I always say when the voice and the vision on the inside become more profound and more clear and loud then the opinion on the outside you've mastered your life. You are not here to try to get the world to be just as you want it to be, you are here to create the world around you that you choose, while you allow the world as others choose it to be to exist also. One of the questions I get almost all the time and is probably on somebody's mind right now, if it's not on yours, and that's the idea that, "well, if everybody uses the secret and they all treat the Universe like a catalogue, aren't we gonna run out of stuff? Won't everybody just make a run for it and bust the bank?" What's so beautiful about the teaching of the great secret is that there is more than enough to go around for everyone. There is a lie, that acts like a virus within the mind of humanity and that lie is, "there's not enough good to go around, there's lack, and there's limitation and there's just not enough." That lie has people living in fear, greed, stinginess, and those thoughts of fear, greed, stinginess and lack become their experience. So, the world has taken a nightmare pill. Now, the truth is there's more than enough good to go around, there's more than enough creative ideas, there's more than enough power, there's more than enough love, there's more than enough joy... All of this begins to come through a mind that is aware of its own infinite nature. Every great teacher who's ever walked the planet has told us that life was meant to be abundant. And so, just when we think that resources are dwindling, we find new resources to achieve the same things. And so, even though we say we have lack it's because we don't open up our vision and see all what's around us. You know, when everybody starts to live from their heart and go for what they want, they don't go for the same things. That's the beauty of this. We don't all want BMWs, we don't all want the same person, we don't all want the same experiences, we don't all want the same clothing, we don't all want...fill in the blank. There's enough for everyone. If you believe it, if you can see it if you act from it - it will show up for you. That's the truth. So let the variety of your reality thrill you as you get to choose from among of those thing that you're wanting. And when you see something that you want in your experience, think about it, find a feeling place of it get inside of it, talk about it and write it down, write a script about it, make it your reality by becoming a match to it. And when you see those things that you are not wanting in your experience do not talk about them, don't write about them, don't join groups of worry about them, don't push against them. Do your best to ignore them, remove your attention from the things that you do not want while you give your undivided attention to the things that you do want. Most of the leaders in the past missed the great part of the secret, which is empowering and sharing with others. This is the best time to have ever been alive in history. It's the first time we've ever had the power to gain knowledge at our fingertips. When we look around us, even at our own bodies, what we see is the tip of the iceberg. Think of this for a moment: take your hand and look at it. Now your hand looks solid but it's really not. If you put it under a proper microscope you'd see a mass of energy vibrating. Everything is made up of the exact same thing, whether it's your hand, whether it's the ocean or whether it's a star. Everything is energy. And let me help you understand that just a little bit. There is the Universe of course, and our galaxy, and our planet, and then individuals, and then inside of this a body, our organ systems, and then there are cells, and then there are molecules, and then there are atoms, and in there is energy. So there are a lot of levels to talk about something on. But everything in the Universe is energy. I don't care what city you're living in you've got enough power in your body, potential power, to illuminate the whole city for nearly a week. Most people define themselves by this finite body. But you're not a finite body. Even under a microscope there are energy fields. What we know about energy is this: you go to a quantum physicist and you say, "what creates the world?" And he/she will say, "energy." Well describe energy. It can never be created or destroyed, it's: always was, always has been, everything that ever existed, always exists, it's moving into form, through form and out of form. OK, great. You go to a theologian and you ask the question, "what created the Universe?" And he/she would say, "God." OK, describe God. Always was and always has been, never be can be created or destroyed all there ever was, always will be, always moving into form, through form and out of form. You see, it's the same description, just different terminology. And so, if you think you're this meat suit running around, think again. You are spiritual being, you're energy field operating in a larger energy field. We're all connected. We just don't see it. There isn't an "out-there" and "in-here". Everything in Universe is connected, it's just one energy field. You are extensions of source energy. You're here in these magnificent bodies, but your bodies have distracted you for the most part, from who you really are. You are source energy. You are eternal beings, you are God force. You are that what you call God. Scripturally, we could say that we are the image and the lightness of God. We could say we are another way that the Universe is becoming conscious of itself. We could say that we are the infinite field of unfolded possibilities. All that would be true. Every great tradition has told you that you were created in the image and the lightness of the creative source. That means that you have got potential and power to create your world. And you are. You are. And maybe you've created things to this point that are wonderful and worthy of you, and maybe you haven't. The question I'd ask you to consider is: do the results you have in you life - are they what you really want, and are they worthy of you? If they're not worthy of you then wouldn't now be the right time to change this? Because you have the power to do that. You know, a lot of people feel like they're victims in life and they�ll often point at past events, perhaps growing up with an abusive parent or in a dysfunctional family. And I would add that most psychologists believe that about 85% families are dysfunctional. So, it's like all of a sudden you're not so unique. My parents were alcoholics, my dad abused me, my mother divorce him when I was 6 From the edge of 13 to 18 I was involved in street gangs. I had a severe motorcycle accident. I was homeless at one point in Dallas, I lived in poverty for 15 years in Houston. When I was a child, I had learning difficulties, and I was considered learning disabled, and I was told I would never read, write or communicate, never amount to anything, not go very far in life. That's almost everybody's story in some form or not. So, that's just called "so what". The real "what" is what are you going to do now, what do you choose now. Because you can either keep focusing on that, or you can focus on what you want. And when people start focusing on what they want, what they don't want falls away. And that part expands, and the other part disappears. We are wanting you to come to the place where you're beginning to offer your thought deliberately where you're guiding your thought on purpose, where you are creator of your own experience, because you are the manager of your own thought. The beautiful thing about the Law of Attraction is that you can begin where you are. And you can begin to think real thinking, and you can begin to generate within yourself a feeling tone of harmony and happiness. The Law will begin to respond to that. So now you start to have different beliefs, like there is more than enough in the Universe, or you have the belief that everything goes right for me. Or you have the belief that "I'm not getting older, I'm getting younger." We can create it the way we want it by using the Law of Attraction. And you can break yourself free from the hereditary patterns, cultural codes, social beliefs, and prove once and for all that the power within you is greater than the power that's in the world. Some of you may be thinking, "well that's very nice, but I can't do that", or "she won't let me do that", or "he'll never let me do that", or "I haven't got enough money to do that", or "I'm not strong enough to do that", or "I'm not rich enough to do that", or "I'm not..." I'm not...I'm not...I'm not...I'm not...I'm not... Every single "I'm not" is a creation. Are there any limits to this? Absolutely not. We are unlimited beings. We have no ceiling. The capabilities and the talents and the gifts and the power that is within every single individual on this planet is unlimited. There is no blackboard in the sky on which God has written your purpose, your mission in life. There's no blackboard in the sky that says Call him. and then there's a blank, you know, and all I have to do is to really understand what I'm doing here, why I'm here is to find that blackboard, and find out what God really has in mind for me. But the blackboard doesn't exist. So, your purpose is what you say it is. Your mission is the mission you give yourself. Your life will be what you create it as and no one will stand in judgment of it, now or ever. It took a lot of years for me to get this, 'cause I grew up very much with this idea that you know, there was something I was supposed to do and if I wasn't doing it, I was like, "God wouldn't be happy with me". What I really got that my primary aim is to feel and experience joy, then I began to do only those things which brought me joy, we have a saying, you know, "if it ain't fun, don't do it" Joy, love, freedom, happiness, laughter, that's what it is. And if, boy, if you just experience joy sitting here and meditating for an hour, by golly, do that. If you experience joy eating a salami sandwich, then do that. When I pet my cat I'm in a state of joy, or when i walk in nature I'm in a state of joy, so I wanna constantly put myself in that state. And when I do that, then all I have to do is have the intention of what I want, and what I want manifest. So, inner happiness actually is the fuel of success. Anything that makes you feel good is always gonna be drawing in more. You have received this right now, it's you that drew this into your life. It's your choice whether you wanna take it and utilize it, if it feels good, if it doesn't feel good, then you know, let it go. Find something that feels good, that resonates with your heart. Joseph Campbell said, "follow your bliss". We think those are the best words we've ever heard spoken from a human tongue. And if one could follow one's bliss, you would follow the trail to abundance and well-being on all subjects. Enjoy life with us, because life is phenomenal, it's a magnificent trip. You will live in a different reality, a different life, when people will look at you and say, "what do you do different than me?", well, the only thing that is different is that you work with the secret. And then you can do, and have, and be things that people will say, "it's impossible for you to do and have and be" We're really now moving into a new era. It's the era where the last frontier is not space, as "Star Trek" would say, but it's going to be - mind. I see a future of unbounded potential, unbounded possibilities. Remember we're using at most 5% of the potential of the human mind. 100% human potential is the result of proper education, so imagine a world where people were using their full mental and emotional potential. We could go anywhere, we could do anything, achieve anything. See yourself with the good that you desire. Every religious book tells us that. Every great book on philosophy, every great leader, all the avatars who have ever lived Go back and study the wise ones. Many of them have been presented to you in this programme. You know what? They all understood one thing - they understood the secret. Now you understand it. And the more you use it, the more you'll understand it. You may be feeling that it would be easier to be hearing these words, if they had come to you the first day of your experience upon this earth. And if we were talking to you on your first day of physical life experience, <i>"Welcome to planet Earth! </i> <i>There is nothing that you cannot be, or do, or have. </i> <i>You are magnificent creator </i> <i>and you are here by your powerful and deliberate wanting to be here. </i> <i>Go forward, giving thought to what you are wanting, </i> <i>attracting life experience to help you decide what you want, </i> <i>and once you've decided giving thought only onto that, </i> <i>most of your time will be spent collecting data, </i> <i>data that will help you decide what it is you want. </i> <i>But your real work is to decide what you want </i> <i>and then to focus upon it, </i> <i>for it is through focusing upon what you want that you will attract it. </i> <i>That is the process of creating." </i> I believe that you're great, that there's something magnificent about you. Regardless of what has happened to you in your life, regardless of how young or how old you think you might be, the moment you begin to think properly this something that is within, this power within you that's greater than the world, it will begin to emerge, it will take over your life, it will feed you, it will clothe you, it will guide you, protect you, direct you, sustain your very existence if you'll let it. Now that is what I know for sure. Be easy about this, have fun with it. There's nothing you're supposed to do, only that what you want to do.
