How do we know that the goals
that we have chosen for ourself are appropriate
and what we really, really should be working on?
How do we know that?
And the answer to that is you don't always know,
and this is where you have to really trust
what feels right to you.
All of us are different.
Every single one of us is unique
and every single one of us has a destiny.
Every one of us has a purpose and meaning to our life.
So the first thing you want to look at
is what are the societal memes?
What are our cultural memes
that tell us what is a successful life?
And what they are are that you make a lot of money,
that you're rich, that you're famous.
That you're good looking, that you're young.
I mean, these are all the things that
What I call the cultural memes.
So what will happen is that these will pull you towards them
because it's what you see on your internet feed.
It's what you see on TV.
It's what you see in magazines.
It's what people are talking about.
So you have to distinguish
is this my calling as well?
And there may be some of them that are your calling.
I mean, there's nothing wrong
with being financially independent
and having a successful life.
All those are very good things.
But beyond that, what is it that is calling me?
What is that my life wants to be?
And the only way that you can approach that
is what would I love to do?
What is it that I really feel that I'm good at?
Because the universe wants you to be successful.
It wants all of us to be successful.
That success is ingrained
in every single cell in our body.
It is wired in our consciousness.
And so because we're wired for success
and each one of us is seeded
with different talents, different desires.
Then if the universe wants you to be successful
and I'm talking personally, you, not society.
But if it wants you to be successful,
then obviously it's going to imprint something
that you would love to do
because why would it give you something
that you don't enjoy?
Why would it give you something that is difficult?
It wants you to be successful
and an order for you to be successful,
it has to encourage you.
And the way it does that
is it something that you love to do.
So what I suggest to my students
always is to re-evaluate the goals
that you have at different times of your life.
Obviously goals that you have at 20
are no longer appropriate at 40, are no longer,
the goals at 40 are no longer appropriate at 60.
But that's the easy part.
Sometimes the goals that you've established last month
are no longer appropriate
because something new has happened to you.
You've had a new insight.
You've had a deeper understanding,
a new opportunity has revealed itself to you.
So the way that you approach it in your life
is first of all, you're never gonna get it a 100% right,
and that's okay because often when we go
off on the wrong path,
when we trust ourselves that will reveal itself
because maybe a couple of weeks into it
or a couple of months into it
you'll say to yourself this doesn't feel right.
And again, you're connected to your subconscious mind.
One of your beliefs
that you can imprint into your subconscious
is that I always make the right decisions.
And so what that will mean
is that when you don't make a right decision,
you will feel it really quickly.
You'll feel it within a week or two,
that no, this isn't quite right.
And rather than being disappointed that you
made the wrong decision,
think of it is as like sailing.
Now I love to sail.
And when you go out sailing,
you have to set your sails
according to where the wind is coming from
and you need to tack back and forth
to get to your destination.
It's never a straight line.
A motorboat is a straight line.
But with sailboats you're going back and forth,
tacking either with the wind
or against the wind.
And that's exactly how it is in life
is destiny is never a straight line, never
It meaners.
It goes in different directions.
Sometimes it goes backwards.
Sometimes you make mistakes.
Sometimes you make wrong decisions, that's okay.
There's nothing wrong with that.
In fact, it's the way life unfolds.
So always you come back to, does this feel right?
Does it feel right to me?
And as I'm achieving the different objectives
in this particular goal that I have chosen for myself
as I achieve them, how do I feel?
Do I feel great?
Do I feel... yes, I'm on the right track?
Or do I feel, you know what
I achieved it, but it still doesn't feel right.
Trust what feels right.
Always trust what feels right
because how you make decisions in your life
is with your logic and with your feeling.
Now the logic is the conscious mind.
Your feeling is your subconscious.
And so when the logic and your feeling, your intuition,
tell you the same thing,
then you know absolutely you're on the right track.
But when the logic says one thing
and you're feeling and intuition says something else,
it's my experience that I always go
with my feeling and intuition
because almost always, that is the more accurate one.
So have fun in your life.
Be successful in your life.
Make decisions that feel right.
And when they no longer feel right,
drop them and move on to something else.
And when you follow that pattern,
you will be led very well.
Your destiny will find you
and you will have a fun,
and interesting, and successful life.
