it seems to me that I have always known
this and that I came into this world
knowing that that you become what you
think about whether you want it or not I
was really very blessed I lived in an
orphanage and until I was 10 in a series
of foster homes with my older brother
but he was sick quite a bit he was very
anemic and I used to have to help him as
a young boy I was he was 16 months older
than I was and when I was four five six
and seven and so on and I can remember I
can remember I lived out in Mount
Clemens Michigan
it’s a 231 Town Hall Road and with that
lady her name was mrs. scarf and she had
a lot of children would come and go from
there and I was in a foster home because
the circumstances at that time were such
that my father had walked out on his
family and I was born in the depression
and there was there was no welfare and
things like that in those days so like
people just helped each other out and my
mother was working as a candy girl in
Detroit on the east side of Detroit
earning seventeen dollars a week and she
she just didn’t have the money and
wasn’t able to provide for her children
so we lived out at this one particular
place and I can remember whenever a new
student would cut a new child would come
to the house they would always so go
find Wayne and I would be out in the
back they had orchards there and
this is no hardship this was no
difficult thing for me this is a great
blessing I think in my life these these
those earliest days and I commemorate a
Martha came and they were dropping her
off for basically the same reasons that
we were dropped off there and they said
go find Wayne and I came and I started
talking to to Martha and and she was
crying and she was all upset and she was
sad and I was trying to convince her
that she didn’t have to be sad that this
was I remember saying to her this is a
great place there’s no parents here you
you can do pretty much anything that you
want I mean you’ve got a lot of freedom
and we’re gonna have a great time and
and I and I can remember being in school
at the public school was a number at
school they didn’t even name them in
their fares PS number 127 and I remember
the teachers one time we were out on the
playground and all the kids were all
upset then and I said what’s wrong and
they said well the teacher said this is
the worst class that she ever had and
she was so all all upset and she was
angry and she was hurting and I said
well why would you allow her opinions to
have anything you know this is her
hardest day then her life was just easy
you know and and I can remember talking
to other people about all you have to do
is change the way you think and it goes
from being a miserable experience or a
tough experience or a hard experience to
to one that you can do anything that you
want with and and when I my mother got
her family all back together again when
I was 9 9 almost 10 years old and I can
remember her telling me what it was like
when I was just a baby when I was just
like an infant that I was I was the one
child that could make everybody else
laugh at times when when everybody else
would she said we were waiting for a bus
one time when we were just real babies
before I went into the orphanage and she
said a car came by and of us it was in
Detroit and there was all this slush and
it just and we all went flying down we
had to everybody had dared on them dirty
snow and we’re laying and
in the ground and everybody was crying
and she said you were though and upset
and mad because our clothes were wet and
so on and she said you just stood up and
said this is great isn’t this wonderful
look you know we don’t have to do this
and we’re done there was just turning it
into something positive it’s like so the
ability to be able to do that was
something I can’t remember a time in my
life when I didn’t know that if I if I
really went to work on how I thought
that things just didn’t have to be bad
I was the richest kid in the orphanage I
was that’s why I’ve talked about that
many times in my lectures that a
snowstorm was a time we we had one we
had two snow shovels at the Theo at the
home and one of them one of them had the
the edges all curled up from hitting the
curbs and you couldn’t make any money
with that one so the other one when it
would snow I would go downstairs and I
would take the good snow shovel and I
would put it under my bed and I’d sleep
with it right right with me in the bed
so that nobody else would get it and I
would get up before everybody else got
up and I would go out and I would just
shovel everybody else’s snow shovel the
walk and then later on and I just go
knock on the door and just tell them
that I shoveled their walk and they’d
say some would say thank you and some
would give me a diet which doesn’t sound
like much but that’s about 3000 dollars
in today’s money so and when I found out
that soda pop bottles for example were
we’re worth two cents each that if you
took them back you could get two cents
back hey that was just like one of the
great awarenesses and all kind of
awakenings of my life because I would
follow people around who were drinking a
coca-cola say you almost done with
they said well no just whenever you’re
winter just follow them and it blocks
until and I had a whole we had a coal
bin where we live because it was cold
furnace ISM and I would we fill that
whole bin with with soda pop bottles and
I would take it back it was just always
it was just always easy to change and
all the other kids would be and not
having any money and complaining about
not being able to have abundance or
being able to have some some level of
being able to by themselves like just a
little donut or a Pepsi Cola or
something they couldn’t figure it out
and it always seems so easy to me that
all you had to do is just look around
and see the opportunities and anything
and it it had nothing to do with whether
there are opportunities there
there always are opportunities I mean
I’m 67 years old I have never ever been
unemployed or even can’t even deal with
the concept of unemployment it isn’t
that I’ve had no job I’ve always had
more jobs than I’ve and it isn’t because
I’ve been through all good economic
times I’ve been there been some pretty
sour economic times over the last 50
years or so I just have never known how
to think any other way then if you
change the way you think about things
you you can create whatever it is you
want for yourself in your life it’s just
a simple knowing I mean I’ve made a
living talking about it I’ve written
lots of books about it and so on but I
have always lived it in practiced it and
I still do today was Thomas showered I
don’t know he did some lectures on
mental science way back in the 1907 1908
he was from Scotland and one of the
things that he said he said that that
dealt the law of flotation was not
discovered by the contemplation of the
sinking of things so that you know like
before the 15th and 16th centuries all
of the ships were made out of wood not
because iron wasn’t available and steel
wasn’t available but because there was a
belief that would float it so therefore
you had to make ships out of things that
floated that’s literally how with it and
then someone came along and said that it
has absolutely nothing to do with what
things are made out of it has to do with
the amount of water that is being
dispersed
that’s that’s what determines whether
something will float on it and I think
about that all the time because it’s
it’s in the contemplation of what you
desire that you create what it is that
you want to have for yourself it’s in
your willingness to contemplate it and
nothing more according to towered in
mental science so that I think about the
Wright brothers you know 100 or so years
ago you know it’s like and I’ve said the
law of flying was not discovered by the
contemplation of the staying on the
ground of things so that these were two
people like for me to figure out how to
get an airplane to fly and my limited
knowledge of all that I would probably
have contemplated the staying on the
ground of things you know this is what
happened but there’s somebody came along
and contemplated the idea that if you
get enough speed going and you have the
right design and you get pressure
underneath something like this and you
get that this thing is gonna lift off
off the other somebody had to
contemplate that idea and everybody who
contemplated that it wasn’t possible
that it couldn’t work was a part of why
flying didn’t take place because there
was no new law discovered in the in the
early part of the 20th century any more
than electricity was discovered by you
know Thomas Edison or anyone like that I
mean the ability to have electricity has
always been there
somebody has to contemplate so it’s like
in your own personal life your
willingness to contemplate yourself as a
person who is capable of attracting into
your life what you want having the kind
of relationships that you want being
able to have abundance where where you
know scarcity always exists all you have
to do is begin the process by having by
being willing to contemplate the
presence of that in your life and I’ve
always been a person that I can remember
throughout my life as someone who could
contemplate myself being able to do
things that most people couldn’t I can
give you a good example when I was when
my mother got us all back together and
we were living in Detroit on the east
side
and we got a new television set it was a
black and white it was a screen about
this big it was an admiral and we had it
in our home and it was like oh like that
black and white television you know you
remember uncle Miltie and all them so
and there was a guy that was on TV
his name was Steve Allen and he was on
The Tonight Show and I was 11 12 13
years old I was born in 1940 so it’s 51
or 52 and I used to stay up every night
and watch The Tonight Show
even though I went to go to school the
next day it was just something about
that show and you know all of the
characters and Spock schmock and all the
things that the Steve Allen would do on
it and I would come down when I would be
talking the next day and I would be
telling my mother and my two brothers
that when I do the Tonight Show this is
what I would say I wouldn’t have said
the way what what Louie and I say the
way reacted how he reacted that I would
have said this and I used to do this and
my brothers and my mother would say
that’s just way and he’s just got he’s
just nutty he he thinks he’s on The
Tonight Show he thinks she’s gonna do
the Tonight Show and I would go up into
my room but you know on this little tiny
house that we lived in you know a little
two-bedroom house that five of us lived
in because my mother remarried and and I
would just I would see myself doing the
Tonight Show I would just practice it
and Steve Allen became someone that I
was really enamored well you know fast
forward I don’t know 30 years or
whatever so and that’s and I’ve written
a book your erroneous zones and The
Tonight Show calls and they asked me if
I would like to come on it so I do my
first stint on The Tonight Show I did
the show like 37 times over a period of
three or four years with all these
different hosts but Johnny Carson was on
and the first guest on the very first
show when I did the show was with Steve
Allen and it was like something clicked
in me that I had contemplated that as a
child I had always had a knowing and I
can remember sitting there talking to
Johnny about this thing that you know
when Steve Allen was sitting there right
next
we’re talking about that kind of so that
by putting my attention on somebody I
wasn’t some deliberate thing that I was
doing you know when I was 11 or 12 years
old that was designating that I was
going to be a person who was going to be
appearing on talk shows 30 years from
now it was just an awareness to a
willingness to contemplate to
contemplate myself in that kind of a
place and I think the power of
contemplation is the thing that most
people haven’t harnessed yet and when we
do heart when you harness it in your
life there’s absolutely no limit to what
you can attract into your life if you
absolutely stay focused on what it is
that you know you’re going to manifest
and attract you’re not going to do it in
in your time you know Jackson Browne
sings a song it says in creation reveals
its secrets by and by I mean you can’t
push the river you can’t it’s all done
in divine time but it will show it will
show it will manifest it will attract
itself and I’m never surprised any
longer about anything that I put my
thoughts on that I can attract it into
my life I just absolutely know that law
of attraction in it and that it
absolutely works and I have no
absolutely no doubt about it
and I feel I feel as if like before I
even came into this world when I was in
the world of spirit that I had a
conversation with God and it was God
saying to me like what would you like to
do in this lifetime and I said that well
I’d really like to spend a lifetime
teaching self-reliance because that’s
truly all I’ve ever done since the time
I was just a little boy so all my life I
mean I could just go through all of the
things that I’ve done it’s all been
always about teaching self-reliant and
God said to say you’re sure you want to
spend a whole lifetime teaching
self-reliance I said yeah that’s what I
want to and he said well you we better
get your little ass into an orphanage
then Rumi said his ancient Persian poets
brilliant beautiful poet he said sell
your cleverness and purchase
bewilderment
it feels like bewilderment it feels like
awe it feels like even as I think about
it now I can feel myself tearing up
behind my eyes because I you know I only
I know what it’s going on behind my
eyeball it feels like so so glorious and
and and so so sweet and so so trusting
so knowing you know there’s just this
powerful knowing that you’re not alone
there’s this you know that it’s like
there’s a safety there’s a sense of that
you’re not alone i this were this great
experience years ago there’s a a friend
of mine he’s on KTAR radio station in
Phoenix names Pat McMahon irish-catholic
I and mother Theresa is to be his guest
on the same day that I miss guests so
we’re in the studio and mother tres it
comes in not she’s about four foot ten
maybe weighs 80 pounds and she’s there
to talk about a homeless shelter that
she slept in the night before to tell
the people of Phoenix about this
homeless shelter and I’m I’m there to
talk about a book that I I don’t know
which one it was it was 10 15 years ago
and so Pat asks tells Mother Teresa is
there anything that I can do for you and
he’s you can imagine that but
bewilderment and they are that he this
is an Irish Catholic guy um you know
living in Phoenix and Mother Teresa a
saint is coming there and you know he’s
just bewildered he’s beyond beyond
bewildered he just doesn’t know what to
do with themselves he’s just so honored
and he says is there anything I can do
for you but is there anything I can do
and she said no she said I just came
here to talk about the homeless shelter
he said by Mother Theresa he said we
have we have a 50,000 watt Clear Channel
station that goes in every direction it
was like he’s got his ego it was like I
can we can help you to raise a lot of
money for your
for your work in your mission in
Calcutta and she said no no I’m not
interested in raising money or your
radio station getting a she said I just
want to talk about the homeless shelter
that’s all
and he’s exasperated and finally she’s
and he’s down on his knees really and
it’s finally she says stand up she said
you seem so serious she said them there
is one thing that you can do and he just
stood up and he said well well what is
it I’d do anything he said she said well
tomorrow morning she said get up at 4:00
a.m. and she said and go out onto the
streets of Phoenix and find someone
who’s living there who believes that
he’s alone and convince him that he’s
not that’s what you can do and behind
the feeling we’re talking about here is
this feeling of aloneness for so many
people who are lost in the world that
they that I don’t have like a connection
to something greater than myself I’ve
come to believe that Who I am is is what
I do and what I have and what other
people think about me and and who I am
is separate from everybody else and and
who I am is this separate even from what
I’d like to attract into my life that
I’m separate from all the things that
are missing and I’m separate even from
God and that there’s a there’s a place
within me that knows that I’m not
separate from any of that that that if
there’s no place that God is not or that
source is not or the energy that
provides that is always giving and
always creating is not if there’s no
place that it is not and then it has to
be in me I know that and if there’s no
place that it’s not and it has to be in
me it has to be also and everything that
is missing in my life or that I think is
missing it’s there too so that in some
mysterious invisible way I’m already
connected to everything that’s missing
in my life through something called
spirit and when I recognized that that
I’m not here as this human being having
a spiritual experience when you
recognize that you’re s
is that you are you our spiritual being
having a human experience not the other
way around when you really get that I
mean not that you can say it and it’s
clever but when you know that who you
are is this essence you don’t see
there’s no other there’s no them there’s
no nothing outside of you you you’re
connected to everyone and everything as
the Native Americans you’d say that no
tree has branches so foolish as to fight
among themselves living the DAO the
doubter chainless
this twenty six hundred year old some
people call it the greatest the wisest
book ever written it speaks so much
about about relationships
now the word ow he’s the great way it’s
really just it’s just another synonym
for God or source or spirit or you know
that what you see all creating and one
of the things that says that was really
helpful to me probably the most helpful
thing in it was that whenever you have a
conflict of any kind in any relationship
when every other conflict that the
person who was willing to be of dhow of
God of sort is the one who will practice
forgiveness or will go to the person
that they have a conflict with and and
bring love to it instead of the
freeze-out instead of the anger instead
of the hatred instead of the revenge so
so many of the things that we do when we
have conflicts in our lives we just
don’t talk to that person like I’m not
talking to that I’m not talking to him
you do or you know he’s gonna call me
because I called the last time in it but
the person who lives the DAO life or the
life of a higher consciousness is the
person who says I end all conflicts on
love
which is what where we all come from we
come from we come from a source that is
love so for me that has been just so
useful I have eight children and that’s
been just extraordinarily helpful for me
to be in a relationship where I can
always be of love or I can just you know
eat and so then you don’t even conflicts
become something that are no longer
present because conflict requires tunas
in order to have a conflict you know you
have to have to you have to two
different opinions or whatever but if
you live in oneness if you really see
yourself in in everyone else see
yourself in in all the things including
the plants including the animals and
including all beings and so on if you
just if you just suspend this ego part
of you and just see yourself in that
other person then your arguments are
really with yourself then your your
hatreds are really about yourself and
you begin to really see that I don’t
have to project anything onto anyone
else that isn’t what I choose to be you
do u-turns
in your life I’ve done u-turns in my
life and it’s again it’s the kids having
the curiosity it’s having the
willingness to to say this isn’t working
for me
you know it’s like you get bit by a
snake and it’s your bit okay so but the
bite doesn’t kill you you’re still there
you know you don’t buy it die from the
snake bite you don’t die from what
somebody you don’t get hurt from what
somebody else does to you
it’s the venom that continues to pour
through your system after the bite
that’s what causes difficulties in
relationships and so on and when you
recognize that that to be angry to be
full of revenge I mean I could bring
anybody in this crew in here and do a
muscle test with them and ask them a
question to hold your arm out like that
to hold your arm up like this and and
think about somebody who’s abandoned you
or abused you who did something
you didn’t like who borrowed money from
you and didn’t pay it back who walked
out on you someone that you hate and
just for a moment just for a moment hold
your arm out as tight as you as hard as
you can I’m gonna put two fingers right
here and I’m gonna push down and you
think about getting revenge you just
think about just but even if you don’t
want to do that just think the thought
oh I’m gonna get even with that bastard
for what he did or what she did I’m
gonna really get even with him and you
push and that you find out that they
have no strength when you think a
thought of revenge there’s no strength
in their Kinesiology to say very simple
to identify secret so then if I say to
yourself okay I have somebody that okay
sit down right here come over this way
okay just put your arm up okay now I’d
like you to think of first of all tell
me your name Michael Michael what
Goergen is that the truth
yeah tell me you’re telling the truth
I’m telling you the truth my name is
Michael gorgeou and that is the truth
okay resist me as hard as you can okay
I’m gonna just push down okay so that’s
the truth now for just one second just
make up a name but tell me that it’s the
two of someone gonna lie to me what is
your name my name is Ron Garcia my name
is Ron Garcia is that the truth yes
that’s are you telling me the truth
that’s the truth say it again my name is
my name is Ron Garcia and that is the
truth hold that thought
oh that’s fun you see the shift can you
see a change in you mm-hmm you see it’s
like changing yeah okay now I’d like I
just doing that further yeah yeah okay
now I’d like you to think about someone
I’d like you to move over this way I’d
like you to think about someone in your
life that abuse you abandon you that did
something to without any details I don’t
want to know any of the details and you
are you are hurt by it and you’re angry
about it and forget about whether you’re
forgiving them or not I want you to just
think about getting even with them I
want you to think about revenge
okay I’m gonna get even with that person
no matter what okay
and put your honor can you hold onto
that thought that thought of revenge
okay I’m gonna get even with that person
for what they did I’m angry at them hold
on to that thought interesting resist me
as hard as you can and notice what’s
happening with your arm is this again
one more time think that thought I’m
really gonna get angry I’m really pissed
I’m really hurt I’m really I’m gonna get
you back for that and resist me as hard
as you I notice what’s happening here
you have almost no strength I’m not even
pushing down I want you to just change
the thought okay I want you to change
the thought right now
and I want you to change it to one of
love and forgiveness I just want you to
surround him with the light of God I
want you to surround them most beautiful
love that you can think of and just
think of that thought they did what they
knew how to do given the conditions of
their life I can’t ask any more of
anybody than that
put your about pochamma resist me as
hard as you can and forgive them in your
heart and forgive them your now could
even get angry get really but I’m gonna
get really even with them then watch
what happens can you see that if you see
that that’s how it works
music every thought you have of shame
every thought you have a banger every
thought you have a revenge there’s a
thought that we can chew every muscle in
you but it’s even in Europe well I think
yeah even I like I couldn’t look at you
when I hear my Egyptian I could see the
ship every your heart is a muscle isn’t
it how many times do we say to our
children you should be ashamed of
yourself think of here what pajama
resist me as hard as you can think of a
moment in your life when you felt great
loves the greatest love you ever felt in
your life just think of that moment I
don’t want to know anything about it
just think about who it was okay
can you think of a moment like that
great luck Michael is just loved okay
and look look yeah oh right I’m pushing
really hard now think of a moment when
you felt shame you just did something
and you’re just ashamed of whatever
okay you think of something like that
okay resist me as hard as you can
you’re thinking shame and just watch
what happens to your heart no matter how
are you
now think love think look just think of
that moment and shit you see the same
now think think some I’m trying hard
just they can say your shame you’re
really ashamed whatever you did you’re
really saying you really screwed up okay
resist me so what you have no strength
well you can’t this you know I learned I
learned it for my dentist
my dentist I put into my teeth and he
would get me out of the chair so who is
this crazy man you know he was adjusting
the occlusion he would say bike down
bites out and then he don’t in a foot if
I’d go weak he said it’s not right yet
he put me back in the chair maybe he
just a little more and until once my he
said now it’s perfect and it always was
it always this is a this is the
demonstrated here is the power of the
thoughts that we have what a thought of
shame a thought of anger a thought of
revenge what it does to the muscles of
our body the muscles of our place it’s
like the reason I ask you to tell me a
lie you know yeah yeah it’s because I
wanted to test you your body because
your body your body wasn’t made by your
parents you like we act to think that
our bodies were made by our parents
that’s because you look a certain way in
all of that but if we take the tiny
little drop of protoplasm that created
you are crated you and we try to find
out its origin and we take it all the
way back to sub sub sub atomic particles
and reduce it reduce of you we find out
when we put it in a particle accelerator
and read and rev it up at 250,000 miles
an hour and collided and we open it up
there’s nothing there that you came from
the invisible you came from source it’s
the spirit that gives life so that once
you understand that this body of yours
is a creation not of human beings but
it’s a creation of God it’s a creation
of source
it’s a crazier came from nowhere and an
invisible source and manifested into the
world of the
and so it it only reacts to it only
reacts the truth because it’s it’s it
was created by truth so once you lie
this is an ultimate lie detector test
that’s why I say we could have saved 93
million dollars with President Clinton
did you have sex or get over this you
know but but but now you’re using an
instrument not of human beings you all
of our bodies are divine creations and
they only reach they only react to truth
with strength the truth that you when
you go weak you’re going against your
down nature your true nature is not
revenge your true nature is not hatred
you came from loved and you have to stay
in that state and want you once you
learn that once you get there what you
like having that demonstrated could
change your life just that moment could
take you forever people ask me what is
your your biggest confusion about
humanity that’s like man’s inhumanity to
man this is just not this recognition
that we are something beyond ego you
know and we don’t have you know we we
have a divided world the world that
believes that you know if you’re male
you’re different than if you’re female
if you’re Muslim you’re different than
if you’re Christian if you’re you know
if you’re born on one side of the river
then you’re different than the person
who wasn’t and we’ve we’ve taken on all
of these ego beliefs and my real strong
thing about it is that I think that our
the generation my generation when I was
in my 20s and so on we were the
generation that that had to end a war
you know we had to end a war
I took my dr. laurels on the 4th of May
1970 the announcement came on the radio
on the television you know at around
4:00 in the afternoon that the
government had put live bullets into the
into their rifles and they were going
and they fired on students who were
protesting the war at Kent State and for
them were killed you can imagine what I
felt as I was really working very hard
to try to end that war
when I had to go in and defend my
dissertation which seemed so trivial
when I considered what our government
was now doing we’re gonna put a lie and
all these students were doing is
protesting a protesting a horrific war
where people were dying in huge huge
huge numbers I think the new generation
this generation it’s they have to
they’re not going to do their job isn’t
to end a war it’s to end war extend the
concept of war and the concept of war
comes out of this ego identification of
who we are and a belief that I am what I
have and I am what I do and I am what
others think of me and I am separate
from everyone separate separate from God
separate from what’s missing this idea
of separation and so on and we will inch
by inch move towards a place where
people will begin to recognize their
connection to each other rather than
their separation or we’ll have to just
start all over we’ll have to start at
all as Einstein said if the next war
that is fought is the after the next
after this one will be fought with you
know with sticks we’ll have to start all
over again we’ll have to start over and
it’s really about slaying this ego this
massive ego thing as you can see it in
our foreign policy you can see it in the
way that we treat it you can see it on
television you can see it in all of the
all of the ads that you see for having
to take pills for everything it’s and
that’s what I feel my my my work is up
is about what my life is about now is is
ending the concept of hatred and
separation every thought we think in
every word we speak is creating our
future
so we have to be careful about what we
say and think and resentment and you
know going old grungy as I call and
going over and over and over this past
difficulties they don’t do anything but
attract more difficulties to you because
I see life as a boomerang like what do
you give out comes back to and this
happens over and over and over again
with a boomerang whenever you toss it
out it comes back and if you toss it
again it will come back so it’s the same
thing with our thinking and our speaking
it’s very important to be appreciative
of life and to express gratitude the
universe loves gratitude the more
grateful you are the more things you
have to be grateful about and when I say
things I don’t mean
objects necessarily but just you improve
the quality of your life enormous li you
can but it doesn’t have to but what good
is a nice car if you are full of
resentment all the time and you drive
around hating everybody that’s not going
to help anything it’s much better if you
had an old car and you were grateful and
an appreciative of life and I also think
it’s extremely important that you love
and appreciate who you are too many of
us have grown up believing that we’re
really not good enough and we’re not
worthy we’re not we don’t deserve and
you know we are divine magnificent
expressions of life and we have to know
that and and experiences and rejoice in
it one of the things I tell people to do
a lot is to go to the mirror especially
first thing in the morning before you
brush your teeth or anything and look in
the mirror and just say I love you I
really really love you and start
connecting with that inner child that’s
inside a little kid who’s probably
pushed away for a long time and when you
do that it’s amazing how miracles seem
to happen well I think love who you are
and be very grateful for life and very
appreciative say thank you a lot I say
thank you many many many times of the
day often not to anyone else
I just thank you and it’s you find more
things to be thankful but we were I was
driving up today from San Diego and the
wildflowers on the hillside just
beautiful this year and I was thinking I
was so glad but I had the opportunity to
see them because if I stayed down there
I wouldn’t have with this Drive which
was not a driver particularly wanted to
make no I’ll tell you of something that
I love people to give if they can when
we have a problem
most of the stole Oh panic panic God
it’ll be going to do love above a buck
but I have something that I’ve tried to
get people to say in a minute there’s a
problem you stop and you go all as well
all is well everything’s working out for
my highest good and out of this
experience only good will come and I am
safe and you do this if it’s a small
thing I say it two or three times if
it’s a bigger issue I babble it
incessantly but all is well everything
is working out for my highest good out
of this situation only good will come
and I am safe now this gives this quiet
your inner turmoil down long enough for
the universe to find the solution to the
so-called problem see when there’s
problems we don’t have to fix problems
so much we need to fix our thinking
and our attitude about how we respond to
it and then you get less and less and
when and when the solution comes you say
thank you
I am NOT a salesperson I am a teacher
and I work with people who come to me
who want to learn to change their lives
I remember when I first heard that if I
was willing to change my thinking I
could change my life it was like a
revelation happening and I thought oh my
goodness and then I just spent all my
time trying to find out how to do that
as it sounded so wonderful and there are
other people who never be interested
maybe next lifetime or the one after
that I don’t know but I will find out
life will bring it to
[Music]
you
this and that I came into this world
knowing that that you become what you
think about whether you want it or not I
was really very blessed I lived in an
orphanage and until I was 10 in a series
of foster homes with my older brother
but he was sick quite a bit he was very
anemic and I used to have to help him as
a young boy I was he was 16 months older
than I was and when I was four five six
and seven and so on and I can remember I
can remember I lived out in Mount
Clemens Michigan
it’s a 231 Town Hall Road and with that
lady her name was mrs. scarf and she had
a lot of children would come and go from
there and I was in a foster home because
the circumstances at that time were such
that my father had walked out on his
family and I was born in the depression
and there was there was no welfare and
things like that in those days so like
people just helped each other out and my
mother was working as a candy girl in
Detroit on the east side of Detroit
earning seventeen dollars a week and she
she just didn’t have the money and
wasn’t able to provide for her children
so we lived out at this one particular
place and I can remember whenever a new
student would cut a new child would come
to the house they would always so go
find Wayne and I would be out in the
back they had orchards there and
this is no hardship this was no
difficult thing for me this is a great
blessing I think in my life these these
those earliest days and I commemorate a
Martha came and they were dropping her
off for basically the same reasons that
we were dropped off there and they said
go find Wayne and I came and I started
talking to to Martha and and she was
crying and she was all upset and she was
sad and I was trying to convince her
that she didn’t have to be sad that this
was I remember saying to her this is a
great place there’s no parents here you
you can do pretty much anything that you
want I mean you’ve got a lot of freedom
and we’re gonna have a great time and
and I and I can remember being in school
at the public school was a number at
school they didn’t even name them in
their fares PS number 127 and I remember
the teachers one time we were out on the
playground and all the kids were all
upset then and I said what’s wrong and
they said well the teacher said this is
the worst class that she ever had and
she was so all all upset and she was
angry and she was hurting and I said
well why would you allow her opinions to
have anything you know this is her
hardest day then her life was just easy
you know and and I can remember talking
to other people about all you have to do
is change the way you think and it goes
from being a miserable experience or a
tough experience or a hard experience to
to one that you can do anything that you
want with and and when I my mother got
her family all back together again when
I was 9 9 almost 10 years old and I can
remember her telling me what it was like
when I was just a baby when I was just
like an infant that I was I was the one
child that could make everybody else
laugh at times when when everybody else
would she said we were waiting for a bus
one time when we were just real babies
before I went into the orphanage and she
said a car came by and of us it was in
Detroit and there was all this slush and
it just and we all went flying down we
had to everybody had dared on them dirty
snow and we’re laying and
in the ground and everybody was crying
and she said you were though and upset
and mad because our clothes were wet and
so on and she said you just stood up and
said this is great isn’t this wonderful
look you know we don’t have to do this
and we’re done there was just turning it
into something positive it’s like so the
ability to be able to do that was
something I can’t remember a time in my
life when I didn’t know that if I if I
really went to work on how I thought
that things just didn’t have to be bad
I was the richest kid in the orphanage I
was that’s why I’ve talked about that
many times in my lectures that a
snowstorm was a time we we had one we
had two snow shovels at the Theo at the
home and one of them one of them had the
the edges all curled up from hitting the
curbs and you couldn’t make any money
with that one so the other one when it
would snow I would go downstairs and I
would take the good snow shovel and I
would put it under my bed and I’d sleep
with it right right with me in the bed
so that nobody else would get it and I
would get up before everybody else got
up and I would go out and I would just
shovel everybody else’s snow shovel the
walk and then later on and I just go
knock on the door and just tell them
that I shoveled their walk and they’d
say some would say thank you and some
would give me a diet which doesn’t sound
like much but that’s about 3000 dollars
in today’s money so and when I found out
that soda pop bottles for example were
we’re worth two cents each that if you
took them back you could get two cents
back hey that was just like one of the
great awarenesses and all kind of
awakenings of my life because I would
follow people around who were drinking a
coca-cola say you almost done with
they said well no just whenever you’re
winter just follow them and it blocks
until and I had a whole we had a coal
bin where we live because it was cold
furnace ISM and I would we fill that
whole bin with with soda pop bottles and
I would take it back it was just always
it was just always easy to change and
all the other kids would be and not
having any money and complaining about
not being able to have abundance or
being able to have some some level of
being able to by themselves like just a
little donut or a Pepsi Cola or
something they couldn’t figure it out
and it always seems so easy to me that
all you had to do is just look around
and see the opportunities and anything
and it it had nothing to do with whether
there are opportunities there
there always are opportunities I mean
I’m 67 years old I have never ever been
unemployed or even can’t even deal with
the concept of unemployment it isn’t
that I’ve had no job I’ve always had
more jobs than I’ve and it isn’t because
I’ve been through all good economic
times I’ve been there been some pretty
sour economic times over the last 50
years or so I just have never known how
to think any other way then if you
change the way you think about things
you you can create whatever it is you
want for yourself in your life it’s just
a simple knowing I mean I’ve made a
living talking about it I’ve written
lots of books about it and so on but I
have always lived it in practiced it and
I still do today was Thomas showered I
don’t know he did some lectures on
mental science way back in the 1907 1908
he was from Scotland and one of the
things that he said he said that that
dealt the law of flotation was not
discovered by the contemplation of the
sinking of things so that you know like
before the 15th and 16th centuries all
of the ships were made out of wood not
because iron wasn’t available and steel
wasn’t available but because there was a
belief that would float it so therefore
you had to make ships out of things that
floated that’s literally how with it and
then someone came along and said that it
has absolutely nothing to do with what
things are made out of it has to do with
the amount of water that is being
dispersed
that’s that’s what determines whether
something will float on it and I think
about that all the time because it’s
it’s in the contemplation of what you
desire that you create what it is that
you want to have for yourself it’s in
your willingness to contemplate it and
nothing more according to towered in
mental science so that I think about the
Wright brothers you know 100 or so years
ago you know it’s like and I’ve said the
law of flying was not discovered by the
contemplation of the staying on the
ground of things so that these were two
people like for me to figure out how to
get an airplane to fly and my limited
knowledge of all that I would probably
have contemplated the staying on the
ground of things you know this is what
happened but there’s somebody came along
and contemplated the idea that if you
get enough speed going and you have the
right design and you get pressure
underneath something like this and you
get that this thing is gonna lift off
off the other somebody had to
contemplate that idea and everybody who
contemplated that it wasn’t possible
that it couldn’t work was a part of why
flying didn’t take place because there
was no new law discovered in the in the
early part of the 20th century any more
than electricity was discovered by you
know Thomas Edison or anyone like that I
mean the ability to have electricity has
always been there
somebody has to contemplate so it’s like
in your own personal life your
willingness to contemplate yourself as a
person who is capable of attracting into
your life what you want having the kind
of relationships that you want being
able to have abundance where where you
know scarcity always exists all you have
to do is begin the process by having by
being willing to contemplate the
presence of that in your life and I’ve
always been a person that I can remember
throughout my life as someone who could
contemplate myself being able to do
things that most people couldn’t I can
give you a good example when I was when
my mother got us all back together and
we were living in Detroit on the east
side
and we got a new television set it was a
black and white it was a screen about
this big it was an admiral and we had it
in our home and it was like oh like that
black and white television you know you
remember uncle Miltie and all them so
and there was a guy that was on TV
his name was Steve Allen and he was on
The Tonight Show and I was 11 12 13
years old I was born in 1940 so it’s 51
or 52 and I used to stay up every night
and watch The Tonight Show
even though I went to go to school the
next day it was just something about
that show and you know all of the
characters and Spock schmock and all the
things that the Steve Allen would do on
it and I would come down when I would be
talking the next day and I would be
telling my mother and my two brothers
that when I do the Tonight Show this is
what I would say I wouldn’t have said
the way what what Louie and I say the
way reacted how he reacted that I would
have said this and I used to do this and
my brothers and my mother would say
that’s just way and he’s just got he’s
just nutty he he thinks he’s on The
Tonight Show he thinks she’s gonna do
the Tonight Show and I would go up into
my room but you know on this little tiny
house that we lived in you know a little
two-bedroom house that five of us lived
in because my mother remarried and and I
would just I would see myself doing the
Tonight Show I would just practice it
and Steve Allen became someone that I
was really enamored well you know fast
forward I don’t know 30 years or
whatever so and that’s and I’ve written
a book your erroneous zones and The
Tonight Show calls and they asked me if
I would like to come on it so I do my
first stint on The Tonight Show I did
the show like 37 times over a period of
three or four years with all these
different hosts but Johnny Carson was on
and the first guest on the very first
show when I did the show was with Steve
Allen and it was like something clicked
in me that I had contemplated that as a
child I had always had a knowing and I
can remember sitting there talking to
Johnny about this thing that you know
when Steve Allen was sitting there right
next
we’re talking about that kind of so that
by putting my attention on somebody I
wasn’t some deliberate thing that I was
doing you know when I was 11 or 12 years
old that was designating that I was
going to be a person who was going to be
appearing on talk shows 30 years from
now it was just an awareness to a
willingness to contemplate to
contemplate myself in that kind of a
place and I think the power of
contemplation is the thing that most
people haven’t harnessed yet and when we
do heart when you harness it in your
life there’s absolutely no limit to what
you can attract into your life if you
absolutely stay focused on what it is
that you know you’re going to manifest
and attract you’re not going to do it in
in your time you know Jackson Browne
sings a song it says in creation reveals
its secrets by and by I mean you can’t
push the river you can’t it’s all done
in divine time but it will show it will
show it will manifest it will attract
itself and I’m never surprised any
longer about anything that I put my
thoughts on that I can attract it into
my life I just absolutely know that law
of attraction in it and that it
absolutely works and I have no
absolutely no doubt about it
and I feel I feel as if like before I
even came into this world when I was in
the world of spirit that I had a
conversation with God and it was God
saying to me like what would you like to
do in this lifetime and I said that well
I’d really like to spend a lifetime
teaching self-reliance because that’s
truly all I’ve ever done since the time
I was just a little boy so all my life I
mean I could just go through all of the
things that I’ve done it’s all been
always about teaching self-reliant and
God said to say you’re sure you want to
spend a whole lifetime teaching
self-reliance I said yeah that’s what I
want to and he said well you we better
get your little ass into an orphanage
then Rumi said his ancient Persian poets
brilliant beautiful poet he said sell
your cleverness and purchase
bewilderment
it feels like bewilderment it feels like
awe it feels like even as I think about
it now I can feel myself tearing up
behind my eyes because I you know I only
I know what it’s going on behind my
eyeball it feels like so so glorious and
and and so so sweet and so so trusting
so knowing you know there’s just this
powerful knowing that you’re not alone
there’s this you know that it’s like
there’s a safety there’s a sense of that
you’re not alone i this were this great
experience years ago there’s a a friend
of mine he’s on KTAR radio station in
Phoenix names Pat McMahon irish-catholic
I and mother Theresa is to be his guest
on the same day that I miss guests so
we’re in the studio and mother tres it
comes in not she’s about four foot ten
maybe weighs 80 pounds and she’s there
to talk about a homeless shelter that
she slept in the night before to tell
the people of Phoenix about this
homeless shelter and I’m I’m there to
talk about a book that I I don’t know
which one it was it was 10 15 years ago
and so Pat asks tells Mother Teresa is
there anything that I can do for you and
he’s you can imagine that but
bewilderment and they are that he this
is an Irish Catholic guy um you know
living in Phoenix and Mother Teresa a
saint is coming there and you know he’s
just bewildered he’s beyond beyond
bewildered he just doesn’t know what to
do with themselves he’s just so honored
and he says is there anything I can do
for you but is there anything I can do
and she said no she said I just came
here to talk about the homeless shelter
he said by Mother Theresa he said we
have we have a 50,000 watt Clear Channel
station that goes in every direction it
was like he’s got his ego it was like I
can we can help you to raise a lot of
money for your
for your work in your mission in
Calcutta and she said no no I’m not
interested in raising money or your
radio station getting a she said I just
want to talk about the homeless shelter
that’s all
and he’s exasperated and finally she’s
and he’s down on his knees really and
it’s finally she says stand up she said
you seem so serious she said them there
is one thing that you can do and he just
stood up and he said well well what is
it I’d do anything he said she said well
tomorrow morning she said get up at 4:00
a.m. and she said and go out onto the
streets of Phoenix and find someone
who’s living there who believes that
he’s alone and convince him that he’s
not that’s what you can do and behind
the feeling we’re talking about here is
this feeling of aloneness for so many
people who are lost in the world that
they that I don’t have like a connection
to something greater than myself I’ve
come to believe that Who I am is is what
I do and what I have and what other
people think about me and and who I am
is separate from everybody else and and
who I am is this separate even from what
I’d like to attract into my life that
I’m separate from all the things that
are missing and I’m separate even from
God and that there’s a there’s a place
within me that knows that I’m not
separate from any of that that that if
there’s no place that God is not or that
source is not or the energy that
provides that is always giving and
always creating is not if there’s no
place that it is not and then it has to
be in me I know that and if there’s no
place that it’s not and it has to be in
me it has to be also and everything that
is missing in my life or that I think is
missing it’s there too so that in some
mysterious invisible way I’m already
connected to everything that’s missing
in my life through something called
spirit and when I recognized that that
I’m not here as this human being having
a spiritual experience when you
recognize that you’re s
is that you are you our spiritual being
having a human experience not the other
way around when you really get that I
mean not that you can say it and it’s
clever but when you know that who you
are is this essence you don’t see
there’s no other there’s no them there’s
no nothing outside of you you you’re
connected to everyone and everything as
the Native Americans you’d say that no
tree has branches so foolish as to fight
among themselves living the DAO the
doubter chainless
this twenty six hundred year old some
people call it the greatest the wisest
book ever written it speaks so much
about about relationships
now the word ow he’s the great way it’s
really just it’s just another synonym
for God or source or spirit or you know
that what you see all creating and one
of the things that says that was really
helpful to me probably the most helpful
thing in it was that whenever you have a
conflict of any kind in any relationship
when every other conflict that the
person who was willing to be of dhow of
God of sort is the one who will practice
forgiveness or will go to the person
that they have a conflict with and and
bring love to it instead of the
freeze-out instead of the anger instead
of the hatred instead of the revenge so
so many of the things that we do when we
have conflicts in our lives we just
don’t talk to that person like I’m not
talking to that I’m not talking to him
you do or you know he’s gonna call me
because I called the last time in it but
the person who lives the DAO life or the
life of a higher consciousness is the
person who says I end all conflicts on
love
which is what where we all come from we
come from we come from a source that is
love so for me that has been just so
useful I have eight children and that’s
been just extraordinarily helpful for me
to be in a relationship where I can
always be of love or I can just you know
eat and so then you don’t even conflicts
become something that are no longer
present because conflict requires tunas
in order to have a conflict you know you
have to have to you have to two
different opinions or whatever but if
you live in oneness if you really see
yourself in in everyone else see
yourself in in all the things including
the plants including the animals and
including all beings and so on if you
just if you just suspend this ego part
of you and just see yourself in that
other person then your arguments are
really with yourself then your your
hatreds are really about yourself and
you begin to really see that I don’t
have to project anything onto anyone
else that isn’t what I choose to be you
do u-turns
in your life I’ve done u-turns in my
life and it’s again it’s the kids having
the curiosity it’s having the
willingness to to say this isn’t working
for me
you know it’s like you get bit by a
snake and it’s your bit okay so but the
bite doesn’t kill you you’re still there
you know you don’t buy it die from the
snake bite you don’t die from what
somebody you don’t get hurt from what
somebody else does to you
it’s the venom that continues to pour
through your system after the bite
that’s what causes difficulties in
relationships and so on and when you
recognize that that to be angry to be
full of revenge I mean I could bring
anybody in this crew in here and do a
muscle test with them and ask them a
question to hold your arm out like that
to hold your arm up like this and and
think about somebody who’s abandoned you
or abused you who did something
you didn’t like who borrowed money from
you and didn’t pay it back who walked
out on you someone that you hate and
just for a moment just for a moment hold
your arm out as tight as you as hard as
you can I’m gonna put two fingers right
here and I’m gonna push down and you
think about getting revenge you just
think about just but even if you don’t
want to do that just think the thought
oh I’m gonna get even with that bastard
for what he did or what she did I’m
gonna really get even with him and you
push and that you find out that they
have no strength when you think a
thought of revenge there’s no strength
in their Kinesiology to say very simple
to identify secret so then if I say to
yourself okay I have somebody that okay
sit down right here come over this way
okay just put your arm up okay now I’d
like you to think of first of all tell
me your name Michael Michael what
Goergen is that the truth
yeah tell me you’re telling the truth
I’m telling you the truth my name is
Michael gorgeou and that is the truth
okay resist me as hard as you can okay
I’m gonna just push down okay so that’s
the truth now for just one second just
make up a name but tell me that it’s the
two of someone gonna lie to me what is
your name my name is Ron Garcia my name
is Ron Garcia is that the truth yes
that’s are you telling me the truth
that’s the truth say it again my name is
my name is Ron Garcia and that is the
truth hold that thought
oh that’s fun you see the shift can you
see a change in you mm-hmm you see it’s
like changing yeah okay now I’d like I
just doing that further yeah yeah okay
now I’d like you to think about someone
I’d like you to move over this way I’d
like you to think about someone in your
life that abuse you abandon you that did
something to without any details I don’t
want to know any of the details and you
are you are hurt by it and you’re angry
about it and forget about whether you’re
forgiving them or not I want you to just
think about getting even with them I
want you to think about revenge
okay I’m gonna get even with that person
no matter what okay
and put your honor can you hold onto
that thought that thought of revenge
okay I’m gonna get even with that person
for what they did I’m angry at them hold
on to that thought interesting resist me
as hard as you can and notice what’s
happening with your arm is this again
one more time think that thought I’m
really gonna get angry I’m really pissed
I’m really hurt I’m really I’m gonna get
you back for that and resist me as hard
as you I notice what’s happening here
you have almost no strength I’m not even
pushing down I want you to just change
the thought okay I want you to change
the thought right now
and I want you to change it to one of
love and forgiveness I just want you to
surround him with the light of God I
want you to surround them most beautiful
love that you can think of and just
think of that thought they did what they
knew how to do given the conditions of
their life I can’t ask any more of
anybody than that
put your about pochamma resist me as
hard as you can and forgive them in your
heart and forgive them your now could
even get angry get really but I’m gonna
get really even with them then watch
what happens can you see that if you see
that that’s how it works
music every thought you have of shame
every thought you have a banger every
thought you have a revenge there’s a
thought that we can chew every muscle in
you but it’s even in Europe well I think
yeah even I like I couldn’t look at you
when I hear my Egyptian I could see the
ship every your heart is a muscle isn’t
it how many times do we say to our
children you should be ashamed of
yourself think of here what pajama
resist me as hard as you can think of a
moment in your life when you felt great
loves the greatest love you ever felt in
your life just think of that moment I
don’t want to know anything about it
just think about who it was okay
can you think of a moment like that
great luck Michael is just loved okay
and look look yeah oh right I’m pushing
really hard now think of a moment when
you felt shame you just did something
and you’re just ashamed of whatever
okay you think of something like that
okay resist me as hard as you can
you’re thinking shame and just watch
what happens to your heart no matter how
are you
now think love think look just think of
that moment and shit you see the same
now think think some I’m trying hard
just they can say your shame you’re
really ashamed whatever you did you’re
really saying you really screwed up okay
resist me so what you have no strength
well you can’t this you know I learned I
learned it for my dentist
my dentist I put into my teeth and he
would get me out of the chair so who is
this crazy man you know he was adjusting
the occlusion he would say bike down
bites out and then he don’t in a foot if
I’d go weak he said it’s not right yet
he put me back in the chair maybe he
just a little more and until once my he
said now it’s perfect and it always was
it always this is a this is the
demonstrated here is the power of the
thoughts that we have what a thought of
shame a thought of anger a thought of
revenge what it does to the muscles of
our body the muscles of our place it’s
like the reason I ask you to tell me a
lie you know yeah yeah it’s because I
wanted to test you your body because
your body your body wasn’t made by your
parents you like we act to think that
our bodies were made by our parents
that’s because you look a certain way in
all of that but if we take the tiny
little drop of protoplasm that created
you are crated you and we try to find
out its origin and we take it all the
way back to sub sub sub atomic particles
and reduce it reduce of you we find out
when we put it in a particle accelerator
and read and rev it up at 250,000 miles
an hour and collided and we open it up
there’s nothing there that you came from
the invisible you came from source it’s
the spirit that gives life so that once
you understand that this body of yours
is a creation not of human beings but
it’s a creation of God it’s a creation
of source
it’s a crazier came from nowhere and an
invisible source and manifested into the
world of the
and so it it only reacts to it only
reacts the truth because it’s it’s it
was created by truth so once you lie
this is an ultimate lie detector test
that’s why I say we could have saved 93
million dollars with President Clinton
did you have sex or get over this you
know but but but now you’re using an
instrument not of human beings you all
of our bodies are divine creations and
they only reach they only react to truth
with strength the truth that you when
you go weak you’re going against your
down nature your true nature is not
revenge your true nature is not hatred
you came from loved and you have to stay
in that state and want you once you
learn that once you get there what you
like having that demonstrated could
change your life just that moment could
take you forever people ask me what is
your your biggest confusion about
humanity that’s like man’s inhumanity to
man this is just not this recognition
that we are something beyond ego you
know and we don’t have you know we we
have a divided world the world that
believes that you know if you’re male
you’re different than if you’re female
if you’re Muslim you’re different than
if you’re Christian if you’re you know
if you’re born on one side of the river
then you’re different than the person
who wasn’t and we’ve we’ve taken on all
of these ego beliefs and my real strong
thing about it is that I think that our
the generation my generation when I was
in my 20s and so on we were the
generation that that had to end a war
you know we had to end a war
I took my dr. laurels on the 4th of May
1970 the announcement came on the radio
on the television you know at around
4:00 in the afternoon that the
government had put live bullets into the
into their rifles and they were going
and they fired on students who were
protesting the war at Kent State and for
them were killed you can imagine what I
felt as I was really working very hard
to try to end that war
when I had to go in and defend my
dissertation which seemed so trivial
when I considered what our government
was now doing we’re gonna put a lie and
all these students were doing is
protesting a protesting a horrific war
where people were dying in huge huge
huge numbers I think the new generation
this generation it’s they have to
they’re not going to do their job isn’t
to end a war it’s to end war extend the
concept of war and the concept of war
comes out of this ego identification of
who we are and a belief that I am what I
have and I am what I do and I am what
others think of me and I am separate
from everyone separate separate from God
separate from what’s missing this idea
of separation and so on and we will inch
by inch move towards a place where
people will begin to recognize their
connection to each other rather than
their separation or we’ll have to just
start all over we’ll have to start at
all as Einstein said if the next war
that is fought is the after the next
after this one will be fought with you
know with sticks we’ll have to start all
over again we’ll have to start over and
it’s really about slaying this ego this
massive ego thing as you can see it in
our foreign policy you can see it in the
way that we treat it you can see it on
television you can see it in all of the
all of the ads that you see for having
to take pills for everything it’s and
that’s what I feel my my my work is up
is about what my life is about now is is
ending the concept of hatred and
separation every thought we think in
every word we speak is creating our
future
so we have to be careful about what we
say and think and resentment and you
know going old grungy as I call and
going over and over and over this past
difficulties they don’t do anything but
attract more difficulties to you because
I see life as a boomerang like what do
you give out comes back to and this
happens over and over and over again
with a boomerang whenever you toss it
out it comes back and if you toss it
again it will come back so it’s the same
thing with our thinking and our speaking
it’s very important to be appreciative
of life and to express gratitude the
universe loves gratitude the more
grateful you are the more things you
have to be grateful about and when I say
things I don’t mean
objects necessarily but just you improve
the quality of your life enormous li you
can but it doesn’t have to but what good
is a nice car if you are full of
resentment all the time and you drive
around hating everybody that’s not going
to help anything it’s much better if you
had an old car and you were grateful and
an appreciative of life and I also think
it’s extremely important that you love
and appreciate who you are too many of
us have grown up believing that we’re
really not good enough and we’re not
worthy we’re not we don’t deserve and
you know we are divine magnificent
expressions of life and we have to know
that and and experiences and rejoice in
it one of the things I tell people to do
a lot is to go to the mirror especially
first thing in the morning before you
brush your teeth or anything and look in
the mirror and just say I love you I
really really love you and start
connecting with that inner child that’s
inside a little kid who’s probably
pushed away for a long time and when you
do that it’s amazing how miracles seem
to happen well I think love who you are
and be very grateful for life and very
appreciative say thank you a lot I say
thank you many many many times of the
day often not to anyone else
I just thank you and it’s you find more
things to be thankful but we were I was
driving up today from San Diego and the
wildflowers on the hillside just
beautiful this year and I was thinking I
was so glad but I had the opportunity to
see them because if I stayed down there
I wouldn’t have with this Drive which
was not a driver particularly wanted to
make no I’ll tell you of something that
I love people to give if they can when
we have a problem
most of the stole Oh panic panic God
it’ll be going to do love above a buck
but I have something that I’ve tried to
get people to say in a minute there’s a
problem you stop and you go all as well
all is well everything’s working out for
my highest good and out of this
experience only good will come and I am
safe and you do this if it’s a small
thing I say it two or three times if
it’s a bigger issue I babble it
incessantly but all is well everything
is working out for my highest good out
of this situation only good will come
and I am safe now this gives this quiet
your inner turmoil down long enough for
the universe to find the solution to the
so-called problem see when there’s
problems we don’t have to fix problems
so much we need to fix our thinking
and our attitude about how we respond to
it and then you get less and less and
when and when the solution comes you say
thank you
I am NOT a salesperson I am a teacher
and I work with people who come to me
who want to learn to change their lives
I remember when I first heard that if I
was willing to change my thinking I
could change my life it was like a
revelation happening and I thought oh my
goodness and then I just spent all my
time trying to find out how to do that
as it sounded so wonderful and there are
other people who never be interested
maybe next lifetime or the one after
that I don’t know but I will find out
life will bring it to
