- In this video, I'm gonna share with you
the real law of attraction,
not the one that just sounds good,
that feels good to think about, but actually step by step
exactly what to do that in six to eight months from now,
you're able to look back
to see that when you watch that one video,
it clicks for you.
That's what helped you that is six to eight months from now
to really create the momentum of your dream life.
Now first off, the way the law of attraction
is normally played out is
you must think about that what you want,
you must intend for it, you must visualize it.
Sometimes people listen to hypnosis,
they listen to different meditations
and it's this thing where a lot of the focus is on it,
but the missing key is just a little bit deeper
and it has to do with understanding the power
that there is something we must let go of
in order to for us to actually attract that which we want,
and that which we want, we will never actually have
if we remain in the energy of wanting.
So there's two main parts here that I really wanna focus on
'cause it changes everything when we begin to apply it.
Now, the first one is the letting go aspect.
Now the challenge with wanting,
like if we want a better relationship
or we want the dream job, or to work for ourselves,
when we want it, the thing to become aware of
is that there's a familiar energy dynamic that is in place.
Now in general, we tend to be attracted to situations
that replay the same childhood dynamics that we grew up in.
So if we grew up and we weren't empowered,
and we grew up, let's say we were in,
we're used to certain type of relationships in our life
where people are either gaslighters
or there are people that are emotionally unavailable.
What happens is we fight energetically
to recreate that in adulthood, whether we realize it or not.
And that is because we are addicted to the familiar.
Now when it comes to the law of attraction,
we may think we want something,
however, the wanting of it
is just an intellectual theoretical idea.
It's something that we feel really good when we think about,
but there's a familiar energy there
that ties us to our past.
So the thing to become aware of is what can I let go of
to allow me to be in the unknown?
So for example, when I was intending
to go full time on YouTube in February, 2017,
I started making daily videos.
Prior to making daily videos,
I had to become aware that my belief system
was I must have a nine to five job,
that this feels safe for me to have a nine to five job
for other people to tell me what to do,
that having a somewhat predictable paycheck was something
that felt safe because when I started doing YouTube,
there was no predictableness
of like the exact amount I'd make every month.
There was nobody telling me what to do,
I had to tell myself what to do,
but what I had to become aware of
is becoming aware of those beliefs
and becoming aware of what I had to let go of.
Now I call this the law of subtraction.
So some people say,
oh, I'm focused on the law of attraction,
but there's something you must subtract from your life
to then attract that which you actually intend for.
Think of it like you have that of a closet,
and in your closet, it's completely full of clothes
and you want to attract new clothes, but it's already full.
There's no room for it, even if you had it.
So what you can energetically do
is actually let go of some of the old clothes
that you haven't worn in years,
and then you have space
to actually put the new clothes once you attracted it in.
Well, when I had and started going full time on YouTube,
I had to subtract and let go of
the belief that I had in working a corporate job,
the probably the addiction to corporate politics.
I hated it.
I hated being told what days I could take off,
what days I could take off.
I hated that a lot of people had to suck up
to get the schedule they wanted, but that felt familiar.
Why did that feel so familiar?
Well, I could see also in childhood
from seven to 15 years old,
I had an ex stepmom telling me what to do all the time.
And there were like ways of getting around
if I wanted to go to band camp or something like that,
or go to some school activity
that would normally get taken away,
I to navigate that in a certain way.
And it was a similar thing at that nine to five job.
So when you look at your current life situation,
you may be able to see
that there's certain attachments that are there,
that are keeping you in where you are, that feel familiar.
And the key is become aware of those,
and to observe that actually what you really want
maybe is to step into the unknown
and to create something new.
Because remember, all magic happens in the unknown,
things that are new opportunities that come into your life
happen in the unknown.
They never happen in the known
because in the known is how you think, feel and act
that is on autopilot.
So most people they're trying to manifest from the known
and that's the biggest block.
They're thinking the same thoughts,
feeling the same emotions,
'cause even if they're thinking of the new visualization
of what they want to create,
they're probably feeling like it's not here right now.
They're probably feeling like they want it.
And guess what?
The emotional energy of wanting
is the emotional energy of not having,
it's the emotional energy of lack.
So literally the present moment right now,
the energy and the biggest thing I could share with you
that changed my life more than anything
was learning how to let go,
but learning how to embody the energy now.
I made the choice in 2017 to be a full-time YouTuber,
regardless of what it looked like on the outside.
I started making videos every single day
and that's when my life really began to change,
because I was embodying in the present moment
a new version of me.
And for a year, three years I waited,
I had the camera equipment.
And by the way, if any of you have a cell phone,
you have the camera equipment.
Not that I'm saying all of you need to make YouTube videos,
but like a long time, I thought I needed some
fancy pants camera to realize that like,
for like after I became a full-time YouTuber,
I had over a 100,000 subs,
I think I went like years filming on my iPhone.
I went back from like a cool camera to like that.
But anyways, I told myself a story and the story was,
I don't have the right camera equipment,
I'm cringy on camera, I don't feel credible,
I live at my dad's house,
I had all these things blocking me.
But the thing that makes the law of attraction
that changes everything
is when you give yourself permission
to be that ideal identity, to just be it.
And to realize that the story you tell yourself
that is on autopilot is the reality that you're stuck in.
So change your story.
I changed my story.
I became aware of the old story,
which is I had to work a nine to five job
and here's my corporate job
and I had to suck up to get the schedule that I want,
all that.
And eventually I became aware of it,
I let it go, and then I started to be a new version of me
that was embodying those emotions.
So if you wanna attract love, the focus is on being
the ideal version of you that would attract in
that love by embodying it in the present moment right now.
Become the version of you that is already in a relationship.
Doesn't mean that you have an imaginary boyfriend
or girlfriend, but you imagine the qualities
and the values you want in that person
and you embody them yourself.
So a lot of times that might be being vulnerable
if you want an emotionally available person,
expressing your true emotions, physical vulnerability,
social vulnerability, being vulnerable,
because being vulnerable is the key
to opening up that kind of energy,
to even having that heart energy activated.
So this is something that the more you do,
the more you realize that your life as a reflection
begins to change in a powerful way.
So that's the first thing to realize about this.
Now, the other aspect I want to talk about though
is making it natural
because a lot of times we may think about what we want,
we might visualize it,
but if we don't change our inner self image,
these things all remain on autopilot.
When I was working that nine to five job
selling woman's shoes,
I learned about the power of a book called
"Psycho-Cybernetics".
And this book was all about our inner self image
and how we will only remain in the known,
safe in the familiar of how we think, feel and act,
but it's how the inner self image of how we see ourselves.
This is why a lot of times people that wanna lose weight,
they wanna lose weight
but they see themselves as an overweight person.
So it's hard for them to lose weight,
but if they would change their self image,
that's why a lot of times,
like imagine somebody going to the gym
for like three or four weeks in a row doing cardio,
becoming a a triathlete or riding a bike.
I have a friend of mine that weighed like 300 pounds.
He started riding a bike,
he became a cyclist where he was riding his bike
with his little dog in the back
and he would ride this bike everywhere.
And he lost,
and then he made the rule that he was gonna get a car.
So he was living in Vegas.
He lost like 150 pounds,
he lost like 75 to a 100 pounds or something like that
doing that, because it changed his identity.
People that go to yoga, same thing.
It's like, you go to a bikram yoga thing,
they tell you in the first day you go,
you must come for a week or two to really get the benefits.
What happens after like the week or two
is you start to see yourself as a yoga person.
You buy the Lululemon $80, $120 pants, you buy the yoga mat.
It's like, oh, I might as well have the yoga mat now.
You make a couple connections with friends there,
you change your sense of identity.
So the part of this to realize
is that once you do something consistently enough,
it changes your sense of identity
and then it becomes natural.
I started making daily videos in 2017,
after about two or three weeks of doing it,
I'd get asked by other YouTubers,
like how do you make daily videos on YouTube?
For me, it was easy, it was natural.
It was natural for myself image.
And then I started to see myself also as like a hard worker,
I saw myself as a hard worker,
as somebody that like is able to go above and beyond,
able to add value.
I also saw myself as someone that was adding a lot of value
that this helped mold me to create my dream life.
So the self image, the way that you see yourself,
the key to transforming it
is becoming aware of what your current self image is.
And if you wonder what that is by the way,
just look around, just look around in your life,
'cause if you're working a nine to five job you hate,
part of your self image is that you are somebody
that works a nine to five job you hate.
If you're single
and you don't feel worthy of a relationship,
maybe if you are honest with yourself and you believe that,
then, oh, well, that's part of my self image.
Or if you're in a relationship
where someone doesn't treat you well,
then maybe that also is part of the self image.
So becoming aware of the self image
is 90% of the transformation.
Then it's about making the choice
to be the ideal identity.
That changes everything.
And not being it because it's gonna change your reality
and change the outside reflection,
being it because it's who you choose to be.
It took me weeks
before videos started to go viral on YouTube.
So it was like I was doing it 'cause I'm like,
Dan, this is who I choose to be.
I choose to be this version of me.
But becoming aware of what you can let go of
is really the key to this transformation
because the attachments we have
are what tether us to the past.
The attachments we have
are what tether us to the nine to five job,
and the familiar, the known, how we think, how we feel,
how we act is on autopilot.
And the key is making a choice to jump into the unknown.
I'll tell you when I started making videos,
that was the unknown for me, it became the,
it becomes familiar, it becomes the known.
I recently did my first live event finally.
Well, I've done live events,
but I did my first bigger live event finally.
In the energy of it, I got so many more ideas,
so much more clarity and it changed my sense of identity.
And then continuing to do that
will continue to do that as well.
It's about being this identity,
not needing permission also.
For a long time, what blocked me
is I didn't give myself permission
'cause I had all these stories.
And when you change your story, you change your life
and then you just simply make the choice to be it,
and you let it become natural for you
by changing that self image
and not putting those goals on a pedestal.
And I'll tell you from experience too,
just from always having a goal
of making a certain amount of money or whatever,
like ego goals maybe that I had,
by the time you do it, it is natural.
It is like, you become the person.
You learn the skills,
you learn the things about that version of you,
and it becomes easy and natural.
And it's not in a pedestal, which is a good thing
because if it wasn't natural,
you'd probably sabotage yourself
and bring yourself back down.
So it's one of the most important things
to realize about this entire thing is that
we have the ability to give ourselves permission,
we can change ourself image at any point
by becoming aware of it
and making the choice about who we are.
We can begin to embody and live
and being the ideal version of us that we choose to be.
And that changes everything.
So in six to eight months from now,
make the choice right now to be this new version of you.
Let go of the old story, become aware of the old self image,
let it go,
and then be and activate this new version of you,
and then watch where six to eight months from now,
your life changes and commit to one action
you could do every day that really wires in
that new ideal version of you.
For me, that was making daily videos,
for other people, it might be creating art,
it might be, you know, you even go in,
if there's another job you want,
you can go apply to that job
that you don't think you're worthy of.
Start taking action, start getting into the unknown
and watch how doing that
changes your life more than anything else,
because all the outer reality
is the reflection of our inner reality.
And by having the courage to step into the unknown,
we're sending a signal to the universe
that says that we're ready for more.
We're gonna be courageous.
Now there is a video that's on the power of letting go
and not wanting
and how that is the most powerful way to receive.
If you haven't seen that video yet,
it's one of the most powerful ones I have,
check it out right here.
The degree to which you can let go
of trying to control outcome, letting go of desire,
letting go of want, which is completely the antithesis
of what they teach you in most law attraction teachings.
