There's a law of the universe called polarity.
That law decreased everything has an opposite.
Every negative has a positive.
The truth is, it's neither positive or negative.
It's our thinking that makes it so.
Everything just is.
We can make it what we want.
If you expect to fail, you will fail.
On the other hand, if you expect to win, you will.
So what seeds are you planting in your mind?
Are you planting seeds of positivity
or feed seeds of negativity?
Guess what your life is going to give you back
more of that.
Are you planting seeds of,
oh, doubt and oh, I'm not gonna make this work,
or something bad is gonna happen.
If you're planting seeds of that
guess what you're gonna get
more of that.
You don't become what you want
because so much of wanting is about
living in the space of what you don't have.
That's why Jim Carey's story is so powerful
because he started to act as though he already had it.
He would go up to Mulholland Drive,
he would drive away saying, thinking,
I already have those things.
I just haven't accessed them as yet.
I believe those things are going to come to me
and I'm going to act like they are.
So I'm gonna move forward in my life in order to
draw that to myself in such a way that my actions
are in alignment with what I say I believe.
So if you start to think about that,
really, why are you where you are in your life?
The choices that you have made
have been because of what you believe
to be true for yourself.
Think about the opportunity you got
5, 10 years ago that got you here.
It may have shown up in the form of an event in your life,
something that may be really
good for you or something that may be bad.
When that opportunity was presented,
you made a decision.
That decision was influenced by
your beliefs, your self image.
That image, good or bad was created
because of the past event of your life.
You see, you need to free yourself
from the past, free your future.
Start focusing on the positive.
Start focusing on how things can go right,
and guess what.
When things go wrong, say,
hmm, there's a lesson in that for me.
Because life doesn't happen to me,
it happens for me.
So everything that's happening
is there to teach me a lesson.
This isn't a setback, it's a set up.
This thing that's really bad
it happened for a reason.
I'm gonna learn from it and I'm gonna get better.
So what the DNA is telling us
is that we have the cranial capacity, we've got
the neural networks, we've got the physical structure
that we arrived with,
with all of the extraordinary capabilities already intact.
We were equipped with
capabilities, light years beyond what we needed
in the world to survive 200,000 years ago.
And it happened all of a sudden.
It did not happen slowly, gradually,
over this long period of time.
Realization means
you simply saw what is already there.
You did not invent anything.
You did not climb the top of a mountain.
You are beginning to see
everything just the way it is.
It is vital that we release foolish,
outmoded or negative ideas and beliefs
that do not support us and nourish us.
Our concepts of ourselves and of life
and of God must support us, not negate us.
Most of us have foolish ideas about who we are
and many, many rigid rules
about how life should be lived.
This is not to condemn us,
for each of us is doing the very best we can
at this very moment.
If we knew better,
if we had more understanding and awareness,
then we would do it differently.
Please don't put yourself down for being where you are.
When we are very little,
we learn how to feel about ourselves and about life
by the reactions of the adults around us.
It is the way we learn what to think
about ourselves and about our world.
Now, if you lived with people who were
very unhappy or frightened or guilty or angry,
then you learned a lot of negative things
about yourself and about your world.
We learn our belief systems as very little children,
and then we move through life
creating experiences to match our beliefs.
Look back in your own life
and notice how often you have gone through
the same experience.
Will I believe you created those experiences
over and over because they mirrored
something you believed about yourself.
It doesn't really matter how long we've
had a problem or how big it is
or how -threatening it is,
the point of power is always in the present moment.
When people come to me with a problem,
I don't care what it is, poor health, lack of money,
unfulfilling relationships,
or stifled creativity,
there is only one thing I ever work on,
and that is loving ourselves
I find that when we really love and accept
and approve of ourselves exactly as we are,
then everything in life works.
It's as if little miracles are everywhere.
Our health improves, we attract more money,
our relationships become more fulfilling,
and we begin to express ourselves
in creatively fulfilling way
All this seems to happen without our even trying.
Loving and approving of yourself,
creating a space of safety,
trusting and deserving and accepting
will create organization in your mind.
Create more loving relationships in your life.
Attract a new job and a new and better place to live,
and even enable your body weight to normalize.
People who love themselves and their bodies
neither abuse themselves nor others.
Self approval and self-acceptance in the now
are the main keys to positive changes
in every area of our life.
Loving the self to me
begins with never, ever criticizing ourselves for anything
criticism locks us into the
very pattern we are trying to change.
Understanding and being gentle with ourselves
helps us to move out of it.
Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years
and it hasn't worked.
Approve of yourself and see what happens.
