Living a Life of Abundance - Jacob Cox & Mike Waskosky
A conversation I had recently with my friend Jacob Cox about the metaphysics and spirituality principles that have helped us both lead a more abundant life, one more in tune with our personal spiritual guidance systems.

All right Hi guys I'm here with Jacob cox I'm mike
Wazowski were interested in having a chat today
about some metaphysical concepts of spirituality
concepts we thought a good topic for this
discussion would be living a life of abundance What
does that look like What does that involve Um What
are your thoughts on the nature of abundance Well
the first thing that really comes to mind is that
you know living the life where all the things that
we kind of need and we want are there for us
However they show up and not necessarily it's all
about money but money certainly is a good energy
that it's not negative and positive it's just it is
and we get to use um our idea that however we want
to I don't think that money is the root of all evil
or you know some you know negative bad thing I
think that if that's your idea of it certainly it
will be hard for you to get money Um but I think
it's just energy you can do a lot of great things
with it but I don't think that's the end all be all
of abundance I think things I know things have
shown up in my life that seemingly showed up like
magic just when I needed it Um and I'm starting to
realize how that works a little bit So I'm excited
about the topic today Yeah Yeah it's it's very
interesting to me how you know the entire universe
is made of energy Everything is just energy and
it's kind of like why why are we so interested in
certain kinds of energy Like like pursuing certain
things in this world pursuing possessions or money
or happiness Happiness is kind of an energy We're
getting more positive energy why why why are we
choosing to pursue things And is there more of a
purpose for why things unfold the way they do And
by now analyzing the way in which things are
unfolding can we then get more of what we're
seeking and why aren't we getting what we're
seeking Right I've heard it said and I think I've
experienced in my own life now at this point and
realized that I think we're always getting what
we're seeking however we're always not conscious
and aware of the things that were really asking for
Um I think there are certain phrases and ideas that
that come to us Um one and for instance is money
doesn't grow on trees You know you hear that that
line a lot as a kid that it's something that's hard
to get something you have to work for And I think
if that's the law each one of us is our own
universe and we all have our own laws and um that's
a lot of your universe that you know money doesn't
grow on trees it's hard to get Um it's sort of all
evil then it's gonna be hard for you to have money
You know it's gonna be hard for it to come into
your life because you've got this really negative
idea attached to it but money can be an
exceptionally great thing and do a lot of great
things with it So I think it's how we how we
perceive certain things to be that can control um
how how things show up for us Another thing is I
think um people say when it rains it pours you know
that saying you know I get up in the morning I stub
my toe man it's gonna be one of those days and and
if that's your philosophy and you are powerful
creator So if you think today it's gonna pour on
you you know all kinds of bad things watch out
because I believe it's coming you know and I think
we can get really really good at being in the wrong
place at the wrong time and the wrong things
showing up for us but that is what we're asking for
I think Yeah so already we're talking about the
metaphysical principles which which suggests that
you know the way in which we believe things the way
in which we view things are directly related to the
things that we will be experiencing Um so can we
distill some of this down to understand what is
what is the purified nature of this relationship
between the way in which we think and the way in
which things are occurring are things occurring
because um that's something that we were needing on
some level and why why were we needing it So we're
kind of talking a little bit about karma here like
we're needing certain things and things are showing
up So again I think when we have a certain idea of
the university again let's take the when it rains
it pours idea if that's your that's your belief
system if that's what you if that's what you truly
think how the universe works the universe gives it
to you And when we get emotional about it whether
positive emotion or negative emotion the fact that
we're getting you know our our brain is thinking it
that's and then we're marrying it with the
emotional feeling then you're really manifesting it
super quickly And I think that that really that's
what's happening is we're asking for in that way
you know when we get upset about something and we
have a lot of emotional charge to it That's really
drawing it in a lot faster And so I think that is
bringing so we're always we're always bringing in
things were always bringing in people places events
circumstances situations and by what we think and
how we feel and and again marrying those things
together really um makes them come even faster So
you know I think we're even um bringing in lack if
we don't believe that we have we're in the wrong
place at the wrong time You can get really good at
calling in lac like I just I'm never in the right
place at the right time always showing up a day
late a dollar short and all of these phrases and
stuff and they become the laws of our universe And
so I think that we're always um manifesting
something whether it's abundance or lack or you
know I think if we're if we're halfway in between
then we're kind of getting the halfway um situation
where sometimes things are good and sometimes
things are bad But so it seems as though there's a
reason that the bad things happen when we're
manifesting lack And is it trying to wake us up
towards something Is it trying to to teach us that
that um there might be a different way of pursuing
life than we've been that we've been recognizing Um
and ultimately do you think that there's some kind
of a spiritual purpose for for for the negative
experiences that we go through that will lead us
lead us out of that Yeah I don't think that it's
the universe saying that you deserve this by any
means I don't think that they're saying like oh
you're asking for this I just I just believe that
this is we're here were present and and we're
thinking and we're feeling and those things send
out messages to the universe to bring something to
us And so instead of it being like a negative
experience and seeing it that way It just is And I
think the contrast is what helps us realize like
what life do we want when I'm thinking negatively
when I'm uh really concerned with what's happening
in my life and I'm upset and I'm and I'm telling
everybody about it You know I see a lot of people
sharing Let me tell you about my bad day Let me
tell you about my boss that I hate Let me tell you
all of these things that I wanna get real emotional
about it and tell you And then a lot of times we're
expecting others to share the exact same negative
things in their life as well And then it becomes
just a really a pity party or whatever But um I
don't I don't necessarily think that it's like the
universe's way of like punishing us I just think
that's what it is that's what happens And so if we
want to draw in negative experiences that we will
and we get that opportunity to realize that hey I
created this I am responsible for my life I'm
responsible for the lack of love the lack of
connection the lack of anything You know and that's
on me It's not on anybody else And I think that's
one of the big ways to really turn in abundance on
is take responsibility for your own life and what's
showing up and that I'm the creator of that
Absolutely So it would seem that a lot of what the
problem has been is people not taking
responsibility and blaming outside forces outside
situations and saying this is why I'm in this
situation ultimately never recognizing their choice
of how they got in that situation Yeah So I guess
um talking about responsibility more Um what what
what would taking responsibility really look like
in a person's life So number one responsibility is
taken taking your life into your own hands right
Saying that I am the creator of all the things that
happened to creating my living situation the job
I'm in the my family life Um you know whether
people are aren't taking advantage of me um I I
literally how I love myself is showing how others
to love me as well I'm giving you the blueprint
here It is I'm either kind to myself and I love
myself and I figured myself or I'm very hard on
myself I'm very judgmental to me because and that's
the blueprint for how you you know expect others to
do the same thing So number one I think is
realizing that I'm the creator I'm responsible for
my life And that looks like me taking my power back
and saying you know I'm not going to allow myself
to give that authority to someone else When you say
you make me angry you make me upset I'm giving you
all the power I'm just completely giving away my
power and saying you've got all the power to make
me angry and upset There may be things that you say
that I don't like and I don't enjoy but I can't
allow that to make me upset or get me angry or make
you know what I mean Like that's your thoughts and
your feelings and you're entitled to those and how
you feel about me and how you think about the
universe I can I need to detach myself from that I
probably could bring up some law of one principles
here because a lot of people get stuck in uh cycles
of frustration It's almost like we're looking for
the thing that has frustrated us in the past a lot
of times and we create this cycle We keep keep
encountering it over and over and justifying our
our inability to ultimately decide to in the law of
one terms they say with frustration with anger the
purpose is to push us in one of two directions They
say the negatively oriented use of catalyst is that
of the path of control and the positively oriented
use of catalyst is the path of acceptance So
ultimately the and when we don't choose one of the
paths that's when the anger sits deeper into our
souls and it kind of it gets suppressed and it can
turn into physical blockages like cancer like we
can have physical issues that start to manifest
because of it But ultimately when we when we're
releasing it either in the path of control or the
path of acceptance Um and that can um for to me
acceptance often means forgiveness Um and a lot of
times I don't think we recognize in the in the
moments of frustration that that's that's
ultimately what we're being pushed into Is this
this added force of of catalytic energy that is
requiring us to make some kind of a decision about
how are we gonna deal with this excess energy Where
is it going to go where is it gonna be put So we
can we can feel like we have to rearrange our lives
and push other people out of our lives or or change
other people in some way and that's the path of
control And that's what I think our society is
often taught to do with anger more often than
complete acceptance and forgiveness because there
are logical reasons we're taught that forgiveness
doesn't make sense That acceptance doesn't make
sense Because we were in a society where we want um
you know to to gain more more more power in general
And ultimately it's sometimes it seems to me the
quest for power is what is what prevents those from
the positive path from recognizing you know the
true nature of their path was one of of humility
and acceptance of the situation that they're in in
order to open their hearts more And then through
opening their hearts in those situations then they
can find that other path of abundance where things
happen magically Yeah and I've had that that
magical feeling show up many times now and I think
it started with realizing that I was like a
tutorial field of energy that what I gave out came
back to me and I realized if I wanted more likes on
facebook it was imperative to get more likes on
facebook to others If I wanted more money it was it
was imperative to give money to others Um and so on
and so forth I mean one of the examples that comes
to my mind the first was I used to work at a
restaurant and I would leave late and I would have
a lot of cash in my pocket and I would typically
give you know $10 $20 $30 to 3 or four people
sometimes on the way home and I would like 50 yards
away And um I felt good about that for the most
part but there were a lot of people that came in
and said hey why did you get so and so that money
and it made me feel bad It made me feel like you
know they're gonna go and crack with it at three
o'clock in the morning and I was like oh well maybe
you're not wrong but I don't I feel good about
giving so I don't know what to do So I just I kind
of told everybody I need some time and I told the
people that I gave money to on the street that you
know hey I just I just need to work some things out
and figure some things out So if you guys could not
ask me for a little bit and then you know I was
like I said I was pretty generous So I gave money
to people sometimes So they were pretty honoring in
that So it went a couple of months and I did my my
yoga and meditation and really really pondering
that question asking universe for an answer And I
really expected one And so one day it had been a
couple of months of that and I'm feeling good I've
been doing my my practice and and working on myself
and I made a lot of money and I'm walking home one
night and a couple came up to me and they said hey
man jiggle we really really need some money for
some to eat tonight If you could give us some money
just a little bit for a sandwich or something that
would be great And They were two people that You
know religiously always helped us out came and took
the trash out for me They would literally do
anything I asked them to do you know And so I was
like you know what Here you go And I pulled pulled
a 20 out and gave it to them and they gave them
both a hug and told him I loved him So here's
something for breakfast in the morning and then I
went walked home and went to bed and you know went
to sleep And that that given given that 20 was
giving in a way that never actually given before I
hadn't gave money in a while I didn't feel bad
about it felt great about it I felt a lot of
gratitude to have that much money and give that
much money to somebody I gave more than what's
asked of me And so I said again giving was
something that always typically felt good So the
next morning I woke up and an ex girlfriend called
and asked if I still had this rock band you know
set and we played it every night and you know it
was fun for a little bit but we stopped playing it
So I tried to sell on facebook and um craigslist
and all things and I even get one bite you know and
I had a lot I had a couple of games and had all the
gear and the guitars and the drums everything and
so but not one person even responded to even to ask
me about it So she calls me and says you still got
that rock and stuff and said yeah of course I do
And she goes I got a friend I think she wants it
she's gonna call you And so she gets off the phone
her friend calls me and says oh my God you know we
want to play this game for a long time You know
your your friend told us what you have and so we'll
give you 200 bucks for everything you got sounds
like you got a lot of good stuff and it works and
it's nice and I was like okay sure absolutely I
would have taken 20 bucks at that point I lived in
a small little apartment I just wanted to get rid
of it get it out of the out of the living room And
so as soon as I got off the phone though I had that
epiphany or revelation or aha moment the light bulb
goes off of my head and I said oh my gosh Somebody
just offered me $200 for something I couldn't give
away The night after within a few hours of someone
asking me for money and then I gave them $20 and
$200 is tenfold of what 20 bucks is that I'd given
away I'd never given before And then I immediately
was downloaded with the idea that that's how jesus
fed 5000 people with two fish and three loaves of
bread that he gave what he had graciously with
gratitude and gave everybody else something first
and that somehow magic is real And this thing
multiplied by the end there was more stuff there's
more fish and more bread than when they started and
I was just like I was overwhelmed I was like that's
how you do it That's real magic This is not it's
not a story it's real and it's something that we
can all still do today And so I realized like in my
abundance like although I'm not always that giving
and graceful but I I practiced regularly giving
money out to people especially homeless people and
giving 5 10 $20 sometimes whatever I feel like it's
necessary at that moment And I've gotten so many
free things I can't tell you at this point coming
back and I knew that was because of that Yeah that
absolutely is the root of the metaphysical law is
that you want to receive You have to give Yeah
absolutely And I don't think it's a law or rule for
a certain you know faith or anything I think it's a
universal law that that's just how it goes or
whether we want to move to another country or if
you want to go to another planet you're gonna can
you know the same thing as you're going to manifest
in the same ways But that to me was definitely one
of them that giving to people whatever they needed
when they needed and giving more christ to give
with your left hand That's your right hand doesn't
know that means like pulling your hand in your
pocket and not knowing how much money coming out
and just hand somebody like that's I can't you know
it's hard to give like that And I've tried to give
like that before And um but I have experienced
miracles and magic of things happening Um and I do
know that that's because of that for sure And just
believing I think one other thing is believing
you're worthy I think that's a huge deal because if
you don't believe you're worthy of things to come
in and it's really blocks things So for instance if
you say to someone like hey you look good today
your hair looks nice and you're one of the people
that block off like oh you know not today and I'm
not you know whatever you're blocking that from
receiving to come in If you're one of those people
you really are blocking that's just one little
thing that you're probably blocking some big things
from coming in as well So I've been open to that
And then another story would be um I had a friend
who was very wealthy he was like the ceo of a
company and he asked me to go to church with him
one day and so I was like sure I'll go with you and
we're driving up to Denver and he was telling me he
wanted to stay away from these girls that he was
meeting he was meeting girls at the bar and he
didn't they weren't working out and they were
problems you know And I was like well he's like
help me stay away from that I was like what all I
know about the universe man is we can't focus on
what we don't want you have to focus on what you do
want seeing that coming in and receiving that So I
said what's your favorite thing that you like to do
And he said mountain biking And I was like perfect
I was like then what you need to do is focus on
mountain biking going and having fun enjoying it
and see yourself meeting people especially women if
that's what you want and finding those people who
already doing those things instead of finding some
lady at the bar and trying to bring her come out
like this is probably not gonna go with you you
know so go do the things that you love already and
you'll find those people doing it and you know I
was just okay this guy is wealthy and I'm thinking
you know like this is something I wanted to do to I
wanted to get a mountain bike and I wanted to to
learn to ride and and trail ride and everything and
so I knew this was gonna happen And one way or
another I just knew that this guy because he had a
lot of money and he would help me out like he would
give me the money I would pay him back and payments
something but I just I just had no doubt in my mind
that soon I was going to receive a mountain bike
you know like somehow he would probably helped me
in that in that way some way So I just was like
yeah we're gonna get mountain bikes we're gonna go
ride and we'll meet other people doing it and we'll
meet those beautiful people that you want to meet
He's like that sounds great let's do that And we
just kind of like let the subject go and it was
gone And so it is bam you know leave it alone And
we went to his church and then after that we went
to his house and then we went to a neighbor's house
to go grab some stuff to wash his car or whatever
And we walked in this guy's garage and he had like
a dozen mountain bikes and we're just like oh my
gosh we were just talking about this and I was like
tell me about your mountain bikes and he nails all
these mountain bikes He says all the ones he's got
and everything he fails to talk about one which is
green and black and matches my jeep at the time And
I'm just like wow what about that one over there
That one looks really cool And he goes oh that's a
bike I don't even ride anymore And I was like oh
you don't He goes no actually if you want it you
can have it And I was like seriously And he said
yes he goes absolutely So within a couple of hours
of just having knowing I was going to get this
thing believing that it was coming somehow And I
relinquished of how it just showed up the same day
within a couple of hours And I was just like man
this is how magic works That's how life of
abundance is You don't have to have money to get a
mountain bike Someone can literally give you one I
know For some people it's hard if you've never been
given a cool thing like that but you have to you
have to be worthy to a little bit You have to know
that I deserve a life of abundance And I think
that's a huge part of the recipe is knowing that I
deserve it And there there clearly seems to be an
element of faith and an element of uh intuition and
trust um that you're not trying to control the
situation to figure out how that's gonna come into
play Mm hmm Yeah How it comes Can you cannot be
attached to the how like it's gonna cost money or
you're gonna get it this way You have to be
completely completely relinquished attachment to
how it comes in And in fact I think one of the good
things to practices is I'm open to any way it comes
in however it wants to come into my life I'm open
to that and say that out loud to the universe and
believe it and feel it because I mean it may come
even better than you can imagine may come you know
and I think that's something I heard people talking
before maybe how can this get any better how could
this be better than I can even imagine I'm open to
that and allowing that to be and I think that's
really important into having that things come in
and like I said not be attached that I have to pay
for it to work for it or I have to do this to get
it can only come this way it's not true it could
come a lot of different ways One of the great
stories in the bible is when jesus and his
disciples houses don't bring anything with you
don't bring your food don't bring clothes don't
bring stuff just go and when they go and they meet
the right people they give them a place to stay
they feed them they tell them the good news and
everything and they come back and he goes did you
need anything like no we met the right people gave
us booty and when I've traveled I've experienced
similar things where people wouldn't even let me go
to my hotel they brought me into their home they
took me out to dinner and they paid for it and I
just realized like man that that is abundance that
it's not just about money and physicality it's
about living a life where things just come in you
know and jesus definitely talks about like being
like the birds they don't they don't need to think
about paying for mortgage you know storing things
up Yeah absolutely I mean being free of worry
constantly removing worry it seems like worry is
actually one of the main things that blocks or
proper manifestation or a life of faith I should
say because worry kind of represents the opposite
of faith Yes not believing it Yeah people have to
believe something before or see something before
they can believe it you know But to me I'm I'm
starting to be a father here in a couple of months
and you know a lot of people ask me you're worried
you know you're gonna have to work and your partner
will stay at home and I really feel I don't feel
worried about that aspect at all I just feel like
we're part of this tribe were really connected to
all these different people who have all these great
abilities and um I really just see them showing up
whenever we need something someone someone to take
care of the kid or we need a you know this or we
need that and just I just feel like it's gonna show
up whenever it needs to and so I feel I really do
feel abundant in that way that she's just gonna be
taken care of and that people in the trial we're
just gonna help us You know it takes a village we
can't all do it by myself And I think when you're
in that mode of I'm responsible for everything and
you know like I'm by myself and no one helps me
like yeah that's really tough to to not be attached
to you know I'm not gonna have enough But when you
realize like man I'm part of a good group of people
people who want to help me and want to be in my
life and I want to show up and then it makes it so
much easier to realize like oh you know I don't
have to worry because everything's gonna work out
and so far everything has worked out why why you
know distrust the universe at this point but it
hasn't because it definitely has you know so that's
a big thing too So yeah definitely having a
community helps a lot with the spiritual community
Do you feel that for people who feel very stuck is
there anything else that would help them encourage
them in their in their faith in their in their
trusting of the universe Man I mean I think the
thing that really changes it all is the experience
that that one you know too but usually is that one
big experience of something metaphysical happening
that for you you know there's no possible way this
is a coincidence Um and I think that's supposed to
happen to everyone You know I really did
synchronicities being in the right place at the
right moment Um You know that really is like the
magic that shows up And I think once you have that
then you can't go back to being you know living a
life where you you don't have it I mean it may may
you may not be 100% on the path yet but you have
the experience to push you over and says you know
there's something to this universe you know things
that I'm doing matter because that's what's coming
back to me You know it's definitely I mean I was a
very analytical thinker thinker for a lot of my
life And it was when I finally open to the idea of
intuition being something kind of beyond me that it
wasn't just coming from a part of my mind that was
you know very logically basing everything off of my
past memories but it might actually be something
that was coming in through me that I didn't I
wasn't able to fully appreciate that this was a
source of information that is like infinite in its
wisdom I wasn't able to get to that point but when
I did get to that point and then it's like all the
experiences start to unfold it's like things start
to become more obvious and you get that those clues
more and more that this is you're being guided and
directed And this is this is really truly what you
came for is to be to be guided into your mission
not through your conscious decision making as much
but through your faith Yeah And I think that's more
what is not believing in a certain book or a
certain person but just having faith in your own
journey that you're here for a reason You're here
for a purpose And you know that intuition that
talks to you man that's yours and yours alone and
you need to listen to it And it's important In fact
they even have a story with that and talking to my
parents and really waking up and trying to share
things that I thought were obvious things in the
bible to my experience but they saw them as
metaphysical and and and not godly or not christian
um which was really difficult And so you know I'm a
little bit frustrated but I'm still trying and I'm
still feeling good I'm trying to tell them all
kinds of cool things that that I thought were
important in my journey of waking up And I just
wanted them to have some of these things too and
see that I'm not so far into the other field that
I'm not resonating with Christianity more with
these words They're actually more prevalent now
than ever They're you know they mean more to me now
than ever And one of the things I said even the
bible says there's a there's a line that says you
can look to the left and look to the right you hear
that voice and the back of your head telling you
where to go And that's the one you should follow
That was the last thing I said in my mind like okay
we're going to church now be quiet you know And
then we'll go sit down and it's like all right fine
No it's fine you know So we go in and we sit down
and there's a bible just in the pew right next to
my mom and she picks it up and she opens it up to
the to a certain page and then that page she opens
up there's a bible verse that has the exact same
words that I just said The last thing that I just
said that looking you know look left look to the
right and she turned and looked at this I told you
see you know there's a guiding you know And so I
just feel like you don't have to have like this you
know feeling of pushing it on people or trying to
convince people which I felt like I did it I did
this I did this all first just for my own
information Then I felt like I had a responsibility
to go back and tell the people But then it was hard
I was like man I'm trying to tell the people and
they make fun of you or they think you're crazy or
you know and then you're just like all right well
then I'll just I'll tell people who are ready And
then that's when it became like a thing where the
synchronicities happen more when people were hungry
when they wanted to know and you can't just go put
it on anybody So one other point I thought would be
good to talk about is you know sometimes our minds
are so busy so full of worries or drama It's hard
to it's hard to hear the voice that's guiding you
And for me meditation and prayer has helped a lot
to me prayer is kind of like an invitation to
meditation to listening to God meditation is the
process of just trying to allow yourself to listen
instead of allowing your mind to just to run like
crazy All right do you meditate Yes absolutely And
take time regularly by myself just to get calm get
relaxed And especially with the job I do I feel
like almost every session I go to I parked my car
outside and I sit there for a couple of minutes
just trying to find my stillness find my divine
spark inside of myself and go in that room with
that um with that energy today and you know no
matter what happens you know I'll be led by that
intuition So I think it's really important to have
that attention all day long you know and that's
what you know that's what the miracles happen and
like I said to me now I walk into someone's house
and you know um the things that we talked about or
discussed are incredible things to even when I
first moved to Colorado and and doing some of these
things are going to people's homes and it just
shows me how much I've grown that my own intervene
this has grown so much to people that are coming in
are showing me a reflection to myself that is
obvious to me that you've done a lot of work and
you're having cool conversations with people or
being at a party and just go and sit down and
playing with the kids and then randomly here comes
somebody come sit next to me and had the deepest
conversation for like an hour and I'd be like I
never thought I would have had this conversation at
a party but here it is and that's just I think
that's me you know I'm showing me that I'm
attracting these incredible experiences Yeah yeah
that's that's the greatest one It's just the
universe during the randomness It's not random it
feels like it but it's amazing right Yeah yeah I've
had some profound experiences helping homeless
people It's just like I don't know what I'm doing
sometimes but it's like there I am in the situation
with somebody who's desperately needing help and
just I was just a little bit willing to trust that
I didn't know why I was doing what I was doing but
there but there's the reason right in front of me
Yeah it's easy to have judgment a lot of time to be
like oh that person they did this or they're a
druggie or they did that or they don't deserve it
and you just come with all these reasons not to
give or not to help but if you can see that person
as God that's what they are that's God in the flesh
and may not even know it But oftentimes I do
practice that regular I always have at least $20 in
cash in my in my pocket at all times just to try to
get money out Um one of the things that like I said
to myself because not only do I want to give money
but I want to give a kind word I want to give
something else besides that that's even more
important that so you know with that time that I'm
giving somebody a couple of dollars or five or 10
or 15 or 20 whatever I feel like at the moment is
needed I said hey you know most people this is what
happened Most people say God bless you and I always
say you just did and some people won't say anything
back but some people like what do you mean I was
like well aren't you God and you just blessed me So
what does that have to you don't have to say you
just did it you know you did it and they're like
man you're right you're right and that makes you
feel good because a lot of times homeless people
who have had this really intense hard life you know
to know what it's like to hurt to know what it's
like to be hungry They have some of the most
incredible spiritual experiences to share with
people And I think I've had I've been blessed to
get those conversations with people that most
people wouldn't get because they have that really
powerful um judgment on them that this person is
worthless and they don't have anything to offer me
but I can guarantee you that they do It seems as
though you know our society it's kind of built
around a very insane system of trying to take take
take take take without without the giving and the
homeless people are kind of like representation of
just just the extent we've gone to to feel that
people who are who are brothers and sisters are
unworthy of love But ultimately it seems like we
need to throughout this whole money making system
and just and just and just begin to see each other
as family again and that that seems to me to be the
way in which abundance flows freely Yeah I agree I
mean like I said I can't tell you how many times
something is coming to my life in a week where I
needed it you know like and and realizing that when
I gave money to this person all of a sudden this
dresser I was looking for came in and most of the
time like I think the better I have my dressers uh
most of the furniture I have in my house it's all
it all came free really Somehow you know I just
showed up at the right place at the right time and
someone gave it to me and I realized like that
giving money out given the things that people need
and just relinquishing your attachment to that
person doesn't deserve it or they're homeless or
maybe they deserve that they earn that in some way
Like nah man just see it as a person see it as
yourself I mean we know nowadays I mean you can
lose your house over an injury you know like you
can lose everything and you know because most
people living paycheck to paycheck if you get hurt
or sick or something you can lose everything you
know and it's a couple of months and that could be
me on the street and so What I'm giving to others
I'm giving to myself you know when I'm holding back
from giving to others I'm telling the universe hold
back for me you know just give me the bare minimum
or don't make excuses not to give to me but when I
say and I go and give someone you know 20 bucks and
sometimes I'll go out and seek them you know if I
see someone the corner and I feel really called to
it and I hear the intuition I'll be like I'll walk
over across the room and get hurt so the road or
something and go find someone who wasn't gonna get
me anyway and go hey man you need this here take
this you know and and like I said I try to say
something positive that you know your love God
loves you and you know not that it's attached to
any kind of religion but it just said you know how
much worthy you are how beautiful you are I mean I
you know usually I feel like they start crying and
then if they start crying I start crying it's just
this beautiful moment It's like you know you could
be mad and angry and have that moment and you're
entitled that and that's right that's your contrast
or you can have this beautiful moment that happens
to me you know several times a week and I just I
feel grateful that I get to experience that like
that I have some money to give someone else like
that's more than a lot of people have you know and
absolutely it seems like you know there's just a
bunch of angels that are helping everybody all the
time and they're and they're part of our guidance
system I think and just making sure that all the
different pieces fall in place so that the maximal
spiritual teachings can occur through these
exchanges Yeah no yeah I definitely felt that and I
felt like the presence of my grandparents and and
you know aunts and uncles and stuff guiding and
saying you know hey look go out there and find that
person seek out that person get to them you know
without counting it or without having an attachment
to you know having enough today because I feel like
a lot of times when we're in that spiritual lack or
in that monetary lack and so when we realized man I
am not in like ever and I can change my attitude
you know just right here right now to me that's
that's the moment that the universe is giving you
to get back on it to get back in the group to give
and realize like I'm lacking because I'm not giving
cause I definitely have gone times where I'm not
seeking this out not giving as much and then all of
a sudden I started going to dumps and then there
are times where I'm like oh man I gotta keep my
money in my pocket gotta have the cash and and I'm
giving it out and then it just seems like abundance
abundance abundance everything is common when it
needs to come Yeah and like I said it's not
necessarily things um sometimes it's events
sometimes it's okay now this I can leave Cacau
ceremonies and make money off of it or something
and that came into my reality all of a sudden
because I needed to be in abundance for that to
come into my reality I couldn't that couldn't come
unless I was feeling abundant unless I felt worthy
of it but when I don't feel worthy when I don't
feel like I have enough and then how can these not
just money but you know situations and events and
things that we can you know even just enjoy you
know or someone says hey do you want to come to
this event with me Like we're holding we're putting
up walls that holds back from this you know
abundance which is to me is like friends it's
family members it's you know experiences it's aha
moments it's just this incredible magical life that
and it's supposed to be for everybody but like so
many of us we don't get to experience and you know
and you know people say well that's sad like I
don't want to put anyone because you have that
enough if you suffer enough if you if you're in
lack enough something's gotta give something's
gotta change and that's where I was I was a
bartender Atlanta and you know although I have
maybe dating beautiful pretty people I was lacking
happiness I was lacking connection and I just felt
like there's so much more to life than money cars
and clothes and things and status and hanging out
with celebrity or something you know I'm missing
out on something great and so I just decided you
know what I'm going to give away all the things I
got and if the law of attraction is real which I
believe it is I'll get all the things back and more
and now I'm finally on my own home I want a nice
vehicle you know I have a family you know that's
coming in and coming in tune to my alignment So I
just feel like I could have never had that had I
been in that lifestyle still but that's the
abundance just like now I'm having a daughter now I
have a partner that I do you know spiritual
activities with and and we have people that we have
we hang out with and we have beautiful friends and
that means way more to me than you know having the
next brand new iphone or you know what I mean
whatever else it is that most people are probably
going after him to be happy Um we could wrap up
soon but one final thing I thought maybe it's
important to dress again if it's not already
properly addressed is you know people once they
start to turn some kind of a rule like the law of
attraction and say well I guess this means I have
to be giving more if they they get that too much in
their in their minds it can turn into a guilt
system again that they feel guilty for not giving
more They feel anxiety around giving And I would
imagine if people are feeling anxiety around giving
or guilty and giving that that's probably not the
right heart heart space No Yeah I don't think so
either I mean to me it's like there is people say
how much should I give Like there is no how much it
should to me honestly it's what you feel like you
should give today And I said to me ultimately the
best thing is to give your left hand and your right
hand doesn't know just to reach your money into
your pockets I mean like I said to the extent that
you give because it was what was given back to you
you know and I mean that's not the reason to give
you don't give to you know I want to get a bunch
back for this you know but just like I said hold
that gratitude in the space of man this feels good
to give it feels good to make someone's day or to
give someone a meal you know or if you don't feel
good about giving money give them a meal if they're
hungry don't pay for them something that some way
I've done that before too and that felt good
sometimes because sometimes I do feel like maybe I
shouldn't give this person cash because I feel like
I know what they're about to do but I'd love to
give them a sandwich And so I've taken that time
and like I said in the line waiting for someone to
make me a sandwich I'm sitting here with this
person and talking to them and you know I'm I'm
using that time as wisely as I can to say
affirmations to them let them know they're loved
And you know again like I said to me after it's
over I feel like both of us have gained something
from the universe much more than me just giving a
sandwich or money or something We both have this
connection People are good and kind and still
there's still that goodness out there There's still
people you know out there that although they may
look like they're not deserving their incredible
they have incredible stories that they want to
share and you know and wisdom and stuff that most
people aren't listening to them because they see
them as homeless people and and not worthy But I
like I said I've had some incredible conversations
with people who didn't have homes or you know
seemed to be lacking and you know tell me about
something that they saw experienced or felt and I'm
just like wow you know I've known you for five
minutes and you told me something deeper and
something I worked with I've known for 10 years and
you know you just shared with me something
incredible So it's Yeah yeah For me it seems to be
all about making sure we can give out of love and
like I love the example of from jesus of You know
carrying the burden from the soldier of one mile is
what he requested but always going the extra mile
going about twice as much of what was what was
normally be expected of you And in that experience
in my experience when you say they've asked for
this but I'm going to give twice as much then that
can be interpreted as love and that that that
experience of love is much much easier to
understand and getting that heart space through the
process and I think that's really the magical place
to be in Yes Have you ever like worked at a job or
it was just kind of like monday and maybe in um you
were sweeping the floor making sandwiches or
something but you were sweeping the floor great and
you had a great attitude and there are other people
who are cooking food who are making more money than
you who aren't as grateful and you know you're just
I mean I've been in the restaurant business for a
long time I've been working with people for a long
time and I realized you know like the best thing I
can do is just work hard and be the best me I can
be and that has always moved me up the ladder
faster than anybody else and I think that it's just
part of that like give more the way you sleep The
floor is all about you it's not about the job it's
not about the money that you're given it's all
about who you are and what's inside You know when
you're grateful to have any kind of job and you're
grateful to have any place to go to to make money
when you are grateful just to be here It shows you
know it sings out loud you know like I'm gonna do
this the best I can You know maybe somebody can do
it better but I'm gonna have a good attitude about
it and that has always brought me abundance And I
feel that when you say that about you know go that
extra mile that's why I feel like that turns your
life and that's another great recipe to turn your
life into abundance is just be grateful to be here
sit the floor the best you can wipe off the counter
best you can I always really pride myself and when
I worked in restaurants and stuff and someone said
well you go clean the counters off and I would
clean them And then I knew that you didn't have to
go behind me There's some people that you figured
you don't have to go behind that person and clean
but I knew when I did it you weren't gonna go
behind me and I knew I think everybody else in that
building new when I did it that I wasn't that I
that I was gonna do it my best and I always like I
said I've always been moved up from you know like a
like a bus boy to this and that to the manager of
the building with the key and you know like I said
I think it was just because and I've gotten jobs
that way to just showing up and like sometimes just
showing up with the mellow mushroom hey man can I
help you clean up And they're like okay sure yeah
you can get paid like I don't get paid but you
don't give me a job eventually you know how to say
that but you know it I just I just kind of knew it
I was like if I just go in there and help there's
no somebody's gonna hire me eventually and I've
gotten many jobs like that without a resume without
having you know have to having a reference there
just like they see it and this guy goes the extra
mile Yeah I want to give this guy a job um
ultimately you know the way people view work
doesn't have to be the seeing as a burden It can be
seen as an honor and a joy that we get to be
serving others and that's what it's about serving
others I think and christ said that the greatest
among us was a servant right That there's something
incredibly empowering about helping others always
because every time you help someone else without
any attachment to it it seems like they have the
next part of your journey You know the next person
you need to meet the next job that you can have or
you know help you know get you somewhere you need
to be and it really just seems like you can get so
much farther with so little with so little and you
know intention with so little trying But it just it
starts with being yourself being initial up and
being grateful that I'm here that I get to work
that I get to do this that I get to try that and
like I'm not above cleaning the floor I'm not above
you know washing someone's feet I'm not above
anything you know you know I'm I'm the universe and
ecstatic motion which means I am the way and the
ocean at the same time you know and that's
incredibly awesome and I feel like how much of our
life would change and we would be in much more
abundance if we just accepted that like yes I'm a
person but I'm also God in the flesh and I'm
humbled to the point that I'm just tiny little
speck but I'm this incredible powerful creator you
know and I create my own life and everything and if
I take responsibility for that man like it just
everything changes you know and it's just like you
know I've been afraid I've been afraid for a long
time to be that person to lead a ceremony or two
talk about something that I think some people would
judge hard but now I just feel like I don't care
you know what my intuition says to do like talk
this person today share this with this person do
this you know figure out a party and and and you
know people are cleaning up grab a trash can take
it out for him whatever it is I've always got more
by doing more and being grateful for the
opportunity as opposed to having this chip on my
shoulder Like I don't take the trash out me do this
me I don't do that you know and I feel like you
know in people when you see somebody you know that
good person that just resonates with you Like man I
know that's a good person and I want that person on
my team I want that person working for me whatever
So yeah ultimately we have to I think a lot of you
know what we're going through is the process of
letting go of who we thought we had to be and and
and throw away our idea of ambition and and take on
a new idea which is more based on these principles
Yes absolutely And I think that's what all
religions are really pointing to you know you can
do all the things I'm doing greater things christ
said all the things I'm doing and greater things
man how come we don't do those things Because he
did the simplest things with utmost importance That
was his mission you know to love people to be there
for someone to listen to somebody I mean one of the
things that I find coming up right now and you talk
about just being with homeless people so many
people don't want to be but he sat with the
drunkards and homeless people and the people at the
bar you stay within the tax collectors and some of
those guys those guys are no there But like that's
those are people who are suffering the most
sometimes the most open people because they are
suffering the most And you know like I need
something in my life for some people who are you
know not that hot or cold yet and they don't
understand that So um I enjoy I work with autistic
kids and adults and I feel like it's an incredible
privilege to get to go into people's homes and work
with sometimes difficult people who have incredibly
difficult problems and to realize that I'm not
there to to judge or to tell them what to do or
what to think But I'm married a lot of times mostly
just the whole space to be there for them you know
to hug them if they needed to love them but they
needed you know say you know what I felt the same
things before you know I felt depression and anger
and you know but a lot of times it's really just
waiting and listening and because I have people
tell you like I'm having this problem I'm depressed
I feel bad They don't necessarily want to be like
yeah I've had that You know like they just want to
be heard You know they just want to be her They
just wanna be like someone's here to listen and I
feel like just being that person that gets to sit
there and listen sometimes is a lot and I feel
grateful that I just get to you know whatever else
you need You want to get something off your chest
You know say it and now they come back to me Is
there anything you need to talk to me about That's
a good one You know that sometimes there is
sometimes there is and it's nice to be able to just
say it to somebody who has no judgment and say you
know what you know that's that's human that's
understandable So you know a life of abundance I
think we're all are worthy We can all have it but
we have to relinquish our attachment to but it has
to come in this way It has to be money It has to be
stuff has to be things it could be a partner it
could be a situation it could be circumstances
events it could be new lost universe instead of you
know when it rains it pours be like it rains
abundant something and avalanches you know um and I
listen to that stuff a lot in the car just over and
over and over again just reprogramming my brain
that I am worthy I am abundant I am you know enough
you know and those things over and over again
because I've said to myself man you're a crappy
person you're worthless and nobody likes you And
I've been that person I said that to myself a
billion times you know and I brainwashed myself to
believe that so now I feel like it's time to wash
it out with some new stuff some new programs some
new orders some new affirmations and sometimes it
takes a little bit of time But I think when it
comes down to it if you're open to a new experience
and having that really spiritual almost out of body
like experience happens sometimes and I think
that's what really changes your life So alright
that was fantastic discussion Yes it was thank you
so much mike Thanks Thanks for listening Thank you
guys for listening Yes so much
Wazowski were interested in having a chat today
about some metaphysical concepts of spirituality
concepts we thought a good topic for this
discussion would be living a life of abundance What
does that look like What does that involve Um What
are your thoughts on the nature of abundance Well
the first thing that really comes to mind is that
you know living the life where all the things that
we kind of need and we want are there for us
However they show up and not necessarily it's all
about money but money certainly is a good energy
that it's not negative and positive it's just it is
and we get to use um our idea that however we want
to I don't think that money is the root of all evil
or you know some you know negative bad thing I
think that if that's your idea of it certainly it
will be hard for you to get money Um but I think
it's just energy you can do a lot of great things
with it but I don't think that's the end all be all
of abundance I think things I know things have
shown up in my life that seemingly showed up like
magic just when I needed it Um and I'm starting to
realize how that works a little bit So I'm excited
about the topic today Yeah Yeah it's it's very
interesting to me how you know the entire universe
is made of energy Everything is just energy and
it's kind of like why why are we so interested in
certain kinds of energy Like like pursuing certain
things in this world pursuing possessions or money
or happiness Happiness is kind of an energy We're
getting more positive energy why why why are we
choosing to pursue things And is there more of a
purpose for why things unfold the way they do And
by now analyzing the way in which things are
unfolding can we then get more of what we're
seeking and why aren't we getting what we're
seeking Right I've heard it said and I think I've
experienced in my own life now at this point and
realized that I think we're always getting what
we're seeking however we're always not conscious
and aware of the things that were really asking for
Um I think there are certain phrases and ideas that
that come to us Um one and for instance is money
doesn't grow on trees You know you hear that that
line a lot as a kid that it's something that's hard
to get something you have to work for And I think
if that's the law each one of us is our own
universe and we all have our own laws and um that's
a lot of your universe that you know money doesn't
grow on trees it's hard to get Um it's sort of all
evil then it's gonna be hard for you to have money
You know it's gonna be hard for it to come into
your life because you've got this really negative
idea attached to it but money can be an
exceptionally great thing and do a lot of great
things with it So I think it's how we how we
perceive certain things to be that can control um
how how things show up for us Another thing is I
think um people say when it rains it pours you know
that saying you know I get up in the morning I stub
my toe man it's gonna be one of those days and and
if that's your philosophy and you are powerful
creator So if you think today it's gonna pour on
you you know all kinds of bad things watch out
because I believe it's coming you know and I think
we can get really really good at being in the wrong
place at the wrong time and the wrong things
showing up for us but that is what we're asking for
I think Yeah so already we're talking about the
metaphysical principles which which suggests that
you know the way in which we believe things the way
in which we view things are directly related to the
things that we will be experiencing Um so can we
distill some of this down to understand what is
what is the purified nature of this relationship
between the way in which we think and the way in
which things are occurring are things occurring
because um that's something that we were needing on
some level and why why were we needing it So we're
kind of talking a little bit about karma here like
we're needing certain things and things are showing
up So again I think when we have a certain idea of
the university again let's take the when it rains
it pours idea if that's your that's your belief
system if that's what you if that's what you truly
think how the universe works the universe gives it
to you And when we get emotional about it whether
positive emotion or negative emotion the fact that
we're getting you know our our brain is thinking it
that's and then we're marrying it with the
emotional feeling then you're really manifesting it
super quickly And I think that that really that's
what's happening is we're asking for in that way
you know when we get upset about something and we
have a lot of emotional charge to it That's really
drawing it in a lot faster And so I think that is
bringing so we're always we're always bringing in
things were always bringing in people places events
circumstances situations and by what we think and
how we feel and and again marrying those things
together really um makes them come even faster So
you know I think we're even um bringing in lack if
we don't believe that we have we're in the wrong
place at the wrong time You can get really good at
calling in lac like I just I'm never in the right
place at the right time always showing up a day
late a dollar short and all of these phrases and
stuff and they become the laws of our universe And
so I think that we're always um manifesting
something whether it's abundance or lack or you
know I think if we're if we're halfway in between
then we're kind of getting the halfway um situation
where sometimes things are good and sometimes
things are bad But so it seems as though there's a
reason that the bad things happen when we're
manifesting lack And is it trying to wake us up
towards something Is it trying to to teach us that
that um there might be a different way of pursuing
life than we've been that we've been recognizing Um
and ultimately do you think that there's some kind
of a spiritual purpose for for for the negative
experiences that we go through that will lead us
lead us out of that Yeah I don't think that it's
the universe saying that you deserve this by any
means I don't think that they're saying like oh
you're asking for this I just I just believe that
this is we're here were present and and we're
thinking and we're feeling and those things send
out messages to the universe to bring something to
us And so instead of it being like a negative
experience and seeing it that way It just is And I
think the contrast is what helps us realize like
what life do we want when I'm thinking negatively
when I'm uh really concerned with what's happening
in my life and I'm upset and I'm and I'm telling
everybody about it You know I see a lot of people
sharing Let me tell you about my bad day Let me
tell you about my boss that I hate Let me tell you
all of these things that I wanna get real emotional
about it and tell you And then a lot of times we're
expecting others to share the exact same negative
things in their life as well And then it becomes
just a really a pity party or whatever But um I
don't I don't necessarily think that it's like the
universe's way of like punishing us I just think
that's what it is that's what happens And so if we
want to draw in negative experiences that we will
and we get that opportunity to realize that hey I
created this I am responsible for my life I'm
responsible for the lack of love the lack of
connection the lack of anything You know and that's
on me It's not on anybody else And I think that's
one of the big ways to really turn in abundance on
is take responsibility for your own life and what's
showing up and that I'm the creator of that
Absolutely So it would seem that a lot of what the
problem has been is people not taking
responsibility and blaming outside forces outside
situations and saying this is why I'm in this
situation ultimately never recognizing their choice
of how they got in that situation Yeah So I guess
um talking about responsibility more Um what what
what would taking responsibility really look like
in a person's life So number one responsibility is
taken taking your life into your own hands right
Saying that I am the creator of all the things that
happened to creating my living situation the job
I'm in the my family life Um you know whether
people are aren't taking advantage of me um I I
literally how I love myself is showing how others
to love me as well I'm giving you the blueprint
here It is I'm either kind to myself and I love
myself and I figured myself or I'm very hard on
myself I'm very judgmental to me because and that's
the blueprint for how you you know expect others to
do the same thing So number one I think is
realizing that I'm the creator I'm responsible for
my life And that looks like me taking my power back
and saying you know I'm not going to allow myself
to give that authority to someone else When you say
you make me angry you make me upset I'm giving you
all the power I'm just completely giving away my
power and saying you've got all the power to make
me angry and upset There may be things that you say
that I don't like and I don't enjoy but I can't
allow that to make me upset or get me angry or make
you know what I mean Like that's your thoughts and
your feelings and you're entitled to those and how
you feel about me and how you think about the
universe I can I need to detach myself from that I
probably could bring up some law of one principles
here because a lot of people get stuck in uh cycles
of frustration It's almost like we're looking for
the thing that has frustrated us in the past a lot
of times and we create this cycle We keep keep
encountering it over and over and justifying our
our inability to ultimately decide to in the law of
one terms they say with frustration with anger the
purpose is to push us in one of two directions They
say the negatively oriented use of catalyst is that
of the path of control and the positively oriented
use of catalyst is the path of acceptance So
ultimately the and when we don't choose one of the
paths that's when the anger sits deeper into our
souls and it kind of it gets suppressed and it can
turn into physical blockages like cancer like we
can have physical issues that start to manifest
because of it But ultimately when we when we're
releasing it either in the path of control or the
path of acceptance Um and that can um for to me
acceptance often means forgiveness Um and a lot of
times I don't think we recognize in the in the
moments of frustration that that's that's
ultimately what we're being pushed into Is this
this added force of of catalytic energy that is
requiring us to make some kind of a decision about
how are we gonna deal with this excess energy Where
is it going to go where is it gonna be put So we
can we can feel like we have to rearrange our lives
and push other people out of our lives or or change
other people in some way and that's the path of
control And that's what I think our society is
often taught to do with anger more often than
complete acceptance and forgiveness because there
are logical reasons we're taught that forgiveness
doesn't make sense That acceptance doesn't make
sense Because we were in a society where we want um
you know to to gain more more more power in general
And ultimately it's sometimes it seems to me the
quest for power is what is what prevents those from
the positive path from recognizing you know the
true nature of their path was one of of humility
and acceptance of the situation that they're in in
order to open their hearts more And then through
opening their hearts in those situations then they
can find that other path of abundance where things
happen magically Yeah and I've had that that
magical feeling show up many times now and I think
it started with realizing that I was like a
tutorial field of energy that what I gave out came
back to me and I realized if I wanted more likes on
facebook it was imperative to get more likes on
facebook to others If I wanted more money it was it
was imperative to give money to others Um and so on
and so forth I mean one of the examples that comes
to my mind the first was I used to work at a
restaurant and I would leave late and I would have
a lot of cash in my pocket and I would typically
give you know $10 $20 $30 to 3 or four people
sometimes on the way home and I would like 50 yards
away And um I felt good about that for the most
part but there were a lot of people that came in
and said hey why did you get so and so that money
and it made me feel bad It made me feel like you
know they're gonna go and crack with it at three
o'clock in the morning and I was like oh well maybe
you're not wrong but I don't I feel good about
giving so I don't know what to do So I just I kind
of told everybody I need some time and I told the
people that I gave money to on the street that you
know hey I just I just need to work some things out
and figure some things out So if you guys could not
ask me for a little bit and then you know I was
like I said I was pretty generous So I gave money
to people sometimes So they were pretty honoring in
that So it went a couple of months and I did my my
yoga and meditation and really really pondering
that question asking universe for an answer And I
really expected one And so one day it had been a
couple of months of that and I'm feeling good I've
been doing my my practice and and working on myself
and I made a lot of money and I'm walking home one
night and a couple came up to me and they said hey
man jiggle we really really need some money for
some to eat tonight If you could give us some money
just a little bit for a sandwich or something that
would be great And They were two people that You
know religiously always helped us out came and took
the trash out for me They would literally do
anything I asked them to do you know And so I was
like you know what Here you go And I pulled pulled
a 20 out and gave it to them and they gave them
both a hug and told him I loved him So here's
something for breakfast in the morning and then I
went walked home and went to bed and you know went
to sleep And that that given given that 20 was
giving in a way that never actually given before I
hadn't gave money in a while I didn't feel bad
about it felt great about it I felt a lot of
gratitude to have that much money and give that
much money to somebody I gave more than what's
asked of me And so I said again giving was
something that always typically felt good So the
next morning I woke up and an ex girlfriend called
and asked if I still had this rock band you know
set and we played it every night and you know it
was fun for a little bit but we stopped playing it
So I tried to sell on facebook and um craigslist
and all things and I even get one bite you know and
I had a lot I had a couple of games and had all the
gear and the guitars and the drums everything and
so but not one person even responded to even to ask
me about it So she calls me and says you still got
that rock and stuff and said yeah of course I do
And she goes I got a friend I think she wants it
she's gonna call you And so she gets off the phone
her friend calls me and says oh my God you know we
want to play this game for a long time You know
your your friend told us what you have and so we'll
give you 200 bucks for everything you got sounds
like you got a lot of good stuff and it works and
it's nice and I was like okay sure absolutely I
would have taken 20 bucks at that point I lived in
a small little apartment I just wanted to get rid
of it get it out of the out of the living room And
so as soon as I got off the phone though I had that
epiphany or revelation or aha moment the light bulb
goes off of my head and I said oh my gosh Somebody
just offered me $200 for something I couldn't give
away The night after within a few hours of someone
asking me for money and then I gave them $20 and
$200 is tenfold of what 20 bucks is that I'd given
away I'd never given before And then I immediately
was downloaded with the idea that that's how jesus
fed 5000 people with two fish and three loaves of
bread that he gave what he had graciously with
gratitude and gave everybody else something first
and that somehow magic is real And this thing
multiplied by the end there was more stuff there's
more fish and more bread than when they started and
I was just like I was overwhelmed I was like that's
how you do it That's real magic This is not it's
not a story it's real and it's something that we
can all still do today And so I realized like in my
abundance like although I'm not always that giving
and graceful but I I practiced regularly giving
money out to people especially homeless people and
giving 5 10 $20 sometimes whatever I feel like it's
necessary at that moment And I've gotten so many
free things I can't tell you at this point coming
back and I knew that was because of that Yeah that
absolutely is the root of the metaphysical law is
that you want to receive You have to give Yeah
absolutely And I don't think it's a law or rule for
a certain you know faith or anything I think it's a
universal law that that's just how it goes or
whether we want to move to another country or if
you want to go to another planet you're gonna can
you know the same thing as you're going to manifest
in the same ways But that to me was definitely one
of them that giving to people whatever they needed
when they needed and giving more christ to give
with your left hand That's your right hand doesn't
know that means like pulling your hand in your
pocket and not knowing how much money coming out
and just hand somebody like that's I can't you know
it's hard to give like that And I've tried to give
like that before And um but I have experienced
miracles and magic of things happening Um and I do
know that that's because of that for sure And just
believing I think one other thing is believing
you're worthy I think that's a huge deal because if
you don't believe you're worthy of things to come
in and it's really blocks things So for instance if
you say to someone like hey you look good today
your hair looks nice and you're one of the people
that block off like oh you know not today and I'm
not you know whatever you're blocking that from
receiving to come in If you're one of those people
you really are blocking that's just one little
thing that you're probably blocking some big things
from coming in as well So I've been open to that
And then another story would be um I had a friend
who was very wealthy he was like the ceo of a
company and he asked me to go to church with him
one day and so I was like sure I'll go with you and
we're driving up to Denver and he was telling me he
wanted to stay away from these girls that he was
meeting he was meeting girls at the bar and he
didn't they weren't working out and they were
problems you know And I was like well he's like
help me stay away from that I was like what all I
know about the universe man is we can't focus on
what we don't want you have to focus on what you do
want seeing that coming in and receiving that So I
said what's your favorite thing that you like to do
And he said mountain biking And I was like perfect
I was like then what you need to do is focus on
mountain biking going and having fun enjoying it
and see yourself meeting people especially women if
that's what you want and finding those people who
already doing those things instead of finding some
lady at the bar and trying to bring her come out
like this is probably not gonna go with you you
know so go do the things that you love already and
you'll find those people doing it and you know I
was just okay this guy is wealthy and I'm thinking
you know like this is something I wanted to do to I
wanted to get a mountain bike and I wanted to to
learn to ride and and trail ride and everything and
so I knew this was gonna happen And one way or
another I just knew that this guy because he had a
lot of money and he would help me out like he would
give me the money I would pay him back and payments
something but I just I just had no doubt in my mind
that soon I was going to receive a mountain bike
you know like somehow he would probably helped me
in that in that way some way So I just was like
yeah we're gonna get mountain bikes we're gonna go
ride and we'll meet other people doing it and we'll
meet those beautiful people that you want to meet
He's like that sounds great let's do that And we
just kind of like let the subject go and it was
gone And so it is bam you know leave it alone And
we went to his church and then after that we went
to his house and then we went to a neighbor's house
to go grab some stuff to wash his car or whatever
And we walked in this guy's garage and he had like
a dozen mountain bikes and we're just like oh my
gosh we were just talking about this and I was like
tell me about your mountain bikes and he nails all
these mountain bikes He says all the ones he's got
and everything he fails to talk about one which is
green and black and matches my jeep at the time And
I'm just like wow what about that one over there
That one looks really cool And he goes oh that's a
bike I don't even ride anymore And I was like oh
you don't He goes no actually if you want it you
can have it And I was like seriously And he said
yes he goes absolutely So within a couple of hours
of just having knowing I was going to get this
thing believing that it was coming somehow And I
relinquished of how it just showed up the same day
within a couple of hours And I was just like man
this is how magic works That's how life of
abundance is You don't have to have money to get a
mountain bike Someone can literally give you one I
know For some people it's hard if you've never been
given a cool thing like that but you have to you
have to be worthy to a little bit You have to know
that I deserve a life of abundance And I think
that's a huge part of the recipe is knowing that I
deserve it And there there clearly seems to be an
element of faith and an element of uh intuition and
trust um that you're not trying to control the
situation to figure out how that's gonna come into
play Mm hmm Yeah How it comes Can you cannot be
attached to the how like it's gonna cost money or
you're gonna get it this way You have to be
completely completely relinquished attachment to
how it comes in And in fact I think one of the good
things to practices is I'm open to any way it comes
in however it wants to come into my life I'm open
to that and say that out loud to the universe and
believe it and feel it because I mean it may come
even better than you can imagine may come you know
and I think that's something I heard people talking
before maybe how can this get any better how could
this be better than I can even imagine I'm open to
that and allowing that to be and I think that's
really important into having that things come in
and like I said not be attached that I have to pay
for it to work for it or I have to do this to get
it can only come this way it's not true it could
come a lot of different ways One of the great
stories in the bible is when jesus and his
disciples houses don't bring anything with you
don't bring your food don't bring clothes don't
bring stuff just go and when they go and they meet
the right people they give them a place to stay
they feed them they tell them the good news and
everything and they come back and he goes did you
need anything like no we met the right people gave
us booty and when I've traveled I've experienced
similar things where people wouldn't even let me go
to my hotel they brought me into their home they
took me out to dinner and they paid for it and I
just realized like man that that is abundance that
it's not just about money and physicality it's
about living a life where things just come in you
know and jesus definitely talks about like being
like the birds they don't they don't need to think
about paying for mortgage you know storing things
up Yeah absolutely I mean being free of worry
constantly removing worry it seems like worry is
actually one of the main things that blocks or
proper manifestation or a life of faith I should
say because worry kind of represents the opposite
of faith Yes not believing it Yeah people have to
believe something before or see something before
they can believe it you know But to me I'm I'm
starting to be a father here in a couple of months
and you know a lot of people ask me you're worried
you know you're gonna have to work and your partner
will stay at home and I really feel I don't feel
worried about that aspect at all I just feel like
we're part of this tribe were really connected to
all these different people who have all these great
abilities and um I really just see them showing up
whenever we need something someone someone to take
care of the kid or we need a you know this or we
need that and just I just feel like it's gonna show
up whenever it needs to and so I feel I really do
feel abundant in that way that she's just gonna be
taken care of and that people in the trial we're
just gonna help us You know it takes a village we
can't all do it by myself And I think when you're
in that mode of I'm responsible for everything and
you know like I'm by myself and no one helps me
like yeah that's really tough to to not be attached
to you know I'm not gonna have enough But when you
realize like man I'm part of a good group of people
people who want to help me and want to be in my
life and I want to show up and then it makes it so
much easier to realize like oh you know I don't
have to worry because everything's gonna work out
and so far everything has worked out why why you
know distrust the universe at this point but it
hasn't because it definitely has you know so that's
a big thing too So yeah definitely having a
community helps a lot with the spiritual community
Do you feel that for people who feel very stuck is
there anything else that would help them encourage
them in their in their faith in their in their
trusting of the universe Man I mean I think the
thing that really changes it all is the experience
that that one you know too but usually is that one
big experience of something metaphysical happening
that for you you know there's no possible way this
is a coincidence Um and I think that's supposed to
happen to everyone You know I really did
synchronicities being in the right place at the
right moment Um You know that really is like the
magic that shows up And I think once you have that
then you can't go back to being you know living a
life where you you don't have it I mean it may may
you may not be 100% on the path yet but you have
the experience to push you over and says you know
there's something to this universe you know things
that I'm doing matter because that's what's coming
back to me You know it's definitely I mean I was a
very analytical thinker thinker for a lot of my
life And it was when I finally open to the idea of
intuition being something kind of beyond me that it
wasn't just coming from a part of my mind that was
you know very logically basing everything off of my
past memories but it might actually be something
that was coming in through me that I didn't I
wasn't able to fully appreciate that this was a
source of information that is like infinite in its
wisdom I wasn't able to get to that point but when
I did get to that point and then it's like all the
experiences start to unfold it's like things start
to become more obvious and you get that those clues
more and more that this is you're being guided and
directed And this is this is really truly what you
came for is to be to be guided into your mission
not through your conscious decision making as much
but through your faith Yeah And I think that's more
what is not believing in a certain book or a
certain person but just having faith in your own
journey that you're here for a reason You're here
for a purpose And you know that intuition that
talks to you man that's yours and yours alone and
you need to listen to it And it's important In fact
they even have a story with that and talking to my
parents and really waking up and trying to share
things that I thought were obvious things in the
bible to my experience but they saw them as
metaphysical and and and not godly or not christian
um which was really difficult And so you know I'm a
little bit frustrated but I'm still trying and I'm
still feeling good I'm trying to tell them all
kinds of cool things that that I thought were
important in my journey of waking up And I just
wanted them to have some of these things too and
see that I'm not so far into the other field that
I'm not resonating with Christianity more with
these words They're actually more prevalent now
than ever They're you know they mean more to me now
than ever And one of the things I said even the
bible says there's a there's a line that says you
can look to the left and look to the right you hear
that voice and the back of your head telling you
where to go And that's the one you should follow
That was the last thing I said in my mind like okay
we're going to church now be quiet you know And
then we'll go sit down and it's like all right fine
No it's fine you know So we go in and we sit down
and there's a bible just in the pew right next to
my mom and she picks it up and she opens it up to
the to a certain page and then that page she opens
up there's a bible verse that has the exact same
words that I just said The last thing that I just
said that looking you know look left look to the
right and she turned and looked at this I told you
see you know there's a guiding you know And so I
just feel like you don't have to have like this you
know feeling of pushing it on people or trying to
convince people which I felt like I did it I did
this I did this all first just for my own
information Then I felt like I had a responsibility
to go back and tell the people But then it was hard
I was like man I'm trying to tell the people and
they make fun of you or they think you're crazy or
you know and then you're just like all right well
then I'll just I'll tell people who are ready And
then that's when it became like a thing where the
synchronicities happen more when people were hungry
when they wanted to know and you can't just go put
it on anybody So one other point I thought would be
good to talk about is you know sometimes our minds
are so busy so full of worries or drama It's hard
to it's hard to hear the voice that's guiding you
And for me meditation and prayer has helped a lot
to me prayer is kind of like an invitation to
meditation to listening to God meditation is the
process of just trying to allow yourself to listen
instead of allowing your mind to just to run like
crazy All right do you meditate Yes absolutely And
take time regularly by myself just to get calm get
relaxed And especially with the job I do I feel
like almost every session I go to I parked my car
outside and I sit there for a couple of minutes
just trying to find my stillness find my divine
spark inside of myself and go in that room with
that um with that energy today and you know no
matter what happens you know I'll be led by that
intuition So I think it's really important to have
that attention all day long you know and that's
what you know that's what the miracles happen and
like I said to me now I walk into someone's house
and you know um the things that we talked about or
discussed are incredible things to even when I
first moved to Colorado and and doing some of these
things are going to people's homes and it just
shows me how much I've grown that my own intervene
this has grown so much to people that are coming in
are showing me a reflection to myself that is
obvious to me that you've done a lot of work and
you're having cool conversations with people or
being at a party and just go and sit down and
playing with the kids and then randomly here comes
somebody come sit next to me and had the deepest
conversation for like an hour and I'd be like I
never thought I would have had this conversation at
a party but here it is and that's just I think
that's me you know I'm showing me that I'm
attracting these incredible experiences Yeah yeah
that's that's the greatest one It's just the
universe during the randomness It's not random it
feels like it but it's amazing right Yeah yeah I've
had some profound experiences helping homeless
people It's just like I don't know what I'm doing
sometimes but it's like there I am in the situation
with somebody who's desperately needing help and
just I was just a little bit willing to trust that
I didn't know why I was doing what I was doing but
there but there's the reason right in front of me
Yeah it's easy to have judgment a lot of time to be
like oh that person they did this or they're a
druggie or they did that or they don't deserve it
and you just come with all these reasons not to
give or not to help but if you can see that person
as God that's what they are that's God in the flesh
and may not even know it But oftentimes I do
practice that regular I always have at least $20 in
cash in my in my pocket at all times just to try to
get money out Um one of the things that like I said
to myself because not only do I want to give money
but I want to give a kind word I want to give
something else besides that that's even more
important that so you know with that time that I'm
giving somebody a couple of dollars or five or 10
or 15 or 20 whatever I feel like at the moment is
needed I said hey you know most people this is what
happened Most people say God bless you and I always
say you just did and some people won't say anything
back but some people like what do you mean I was
like well aren't you God and you just blessed me So
what does that have to you don't have to say you
just did it you know you did it and they're like
man you're right you're right and that makes you
feel good because a lot of times homeless people
who have had this really intense hard life you know
to know what it's like to hurt to know what it's
like to be hungry They have some of the most
incredible spiritual experiences to share with
people And I think I've had I've been blessed to
get those conversations with people that most
people wouldn't get because they have that really
powerful um judgment on them that this person is
worthless and they don't have anything to offer me
but I can guarantee you that they do It seems as
though you know our society it's kind of built
around a very insane system of trying to take take
take take take without without the giving and the
homeless people are kind of like representation of
just just the extent we've gone to to feel that
people who are who are brothers and sisters are
unworthy of love But ultimately it seems like we
need to throughout this whole money making system
and just and just and just begin to see each other
as family again and that that seems to me to be the
way in which abundance flows freely Yeah I agree I
mean like I said I can't tell you how many times
something is coming to my life in a week where I
needed it you know like and and realizing that when
I gave money to this person all of a sudden this
dresser I was looking for came in and most of the
time like I think the better I have my dressers uh
most of the furniture I have in my house it's all
it all came free really Somehow you know I just
showed up at the right place at the right time and
someone gave it to me and I realized like that
giving money out given the things that people need
and just relinquishing your attachment to that
person doesn't deserve it or they're homeless or
maybe they deserve that they earn that in some way
Like nah man just see it as a person see it as
yourself I mean we know nowadays I mean you can
lose your house over an injury you know like you
can lose everything and you know because most
people living paycheck to paycheck if you get hurt
or sick or something you can lose everything you
know and it's a couple of months and that could be
me on the street and so What I'm giving to others
I'm giving to myself you know when I'm holding back
from giving to others I'm telling the universe hold
back for me you know just give me the bare minimum
or don't make excuses not to give to me but when I
say and I go and give someone you know 20 bucks and
sometimes I'll go out and seek them you know if I
see someone the corner and I feel really called to
it and I hear the intuition I'll be like I'll walk
over across the room and get hurt so the road or
something and go find someone who wasn't gonna get
me anyway and go hey man you need this here take
this you know and and like I said I try to say
something positive that you know your love God
loves you and you know not that it's attached to
any kind of religion but it just said you know how
much worthy you are how beautiful you are I mean I
you know usually I feel like they start crying and
then if they start crying I start crying it's just
this beautiful moment It's like you know you could
be mad and angry and have that moment and you're
entitled that and that's right that's your contrast
or you can have this beautiful moment that happens
to me you know several times a week and I just I
feel grateful that I get to experience that like
that I have some money to give someone else like
that's more than a lot of people have you know and
absolutely it seems like you know there's just a
bunch of angels that are helping everybody all the
time and they're and they're part of our guidance
system I think and just making sure that all the
different pieces fall in place so that the maximal
spiritual teachings can occur through these
exchanges Yeah no yeah I definitely felt that and I
felt like the presence of my grandparents and and
you know aunts and uncles and stuff guiding and
saying you know hey look go out there and find that
person seek out that person get to them you know
without counting it or without having an attachment
to you know having enough today because I feel like
a lot of times when we're in that spiritual lack or
in that monetary lack and so when we realized man I
am not in like ever and I can change my attitude
you know just right here right now to me that's
that's the moment that the universe is giving you
to get back on it to get back in the group to give
and realize like I'm lacking because I'm not giving
cause I definitely have gone times where I'm not
seeking this out not giving as much and then all of
a sudden I started going to dumps and then there
are times where I'm like oh man I gotta keep my
money in my pocket gotta have the cash and and I'm
giving it out and then it just seems like abundance
abundance abundance everything is common when it
needs to come Yeah and like I said it's not
necessarily things um sometimes it's events
sometimes it's okay now this I can leave Cacau
ceremonies and make money off of it or something
and that came into my reality all of a sudden
because I needed to be in abundance for that to
come into my reality I couldn't that couldn't come
unless I was feeling abundant unless I felt worthy
of it but when I don't feel worthy when I don't
feel like I have enough and then how can these not
just money but you know situations and events and
things that we can you know even just enjoy you
know or someone says hey do you want to come to
this event with me Like we're holding we're putting
up walls that holds back from this you know
abundance which is to me is like friends it's
family members it's you know experiences it's aha
moments it's just this incredible magical life that
and it's supposed to be for everybody but like so
many of us we don't get to experience and you know
and you know people say well that's sad like I
don't want to put anyone because you have that
enough if you suffer enough if you if you're in
lack enough something's gotta give something's
gotta change and that's where I was I was a
bartender Atlanta and you know although I have
maybe dating beautiful pretty people I was lacking
happiness I was lacking connection and I just felt
like there's so much more to life than money cars
and clothes and things and status and hanging out
with celebrity or something you know I'm missing
out on something great and so I just decided you
know what I'm going to give away all the things I
got and if the law of attraction is real which I
believe it is I'll get all the things back and more
and now I'm finally on my own home I want a nice
vehicle you know I have a family you know that's
coming in and coming in tune to my alignment So I
just feel like I could have never had that had I
been in that lifestyle still but that's the
abundance just like now I'm having a daughter now I
have a partner that I do you know spiritual
activities with and and we have people that we have
we hang out with and we have beautiful friends and
that means way more to me than you know having the
next brand new iphone or you know what I mean
whatever else it is that most people are probably
going after him to be happy Um we could wrap up
soon but one final thing I thought maybe it's
important to dress again if it's not already
properly addressed is you know people once they
start to turn some kind of a rule like the law of
attraction and say well I guess this means I have
to be giving more if they they get that too much in
their in their minds it can turn into a guilt
system again that they feel guilty for not giving
more They feel anxiety around giving And I would
imagine if people are feeling anxiety around giving
or guilty and giving that that's probably not the
right heart heart space No Yeah I don't think so
either I mean to me it's like there is people say
how much should I give Like there is no how much it
should to me honestly it's what you feel like you
should give today And I said to me ultimately the
best thing is to give your left hand and your right
hand doesn't know just to reach your money into
your pockets I mean like I said to the extent that
you give because it was what was given back to you
you know and I mean that's not the reason to give
you don't give to you know I want to get a bunch
back for this you know but just like I said hold
that gratitude in the space of man this feels good
to give it feels good to make someone's day or to
give someone a meal you know or if you don't feel
good about giving money give them a meal if they're
hungry don't pay for them something that some way
I've done that before too and that felt good
sometimes because sometimes I do feel like maybe I
shouldn't give this person cash because I feel like
I know what they're about to do but I'd love to
give them a sandwich And so I've taken that time
and like I said in the line waiting for someone to
make me a sandwich I'm sitting here with this
person and talking to them and you know I'm I'm
using that time as wisely as I can to say
affirmations to them let them know they're loved
And you know again like I said to me after it's
over I feel like both of us have gained something
from the universe much more than me just giving a
sandwich or money or something We both have this
connection People are good and kind and still
there's still that goodness out there There's still
people you know out there that although they may
look like they're not deserving their incredible
they have incredible stories that they want to
share and you know and wisdom and stuff that most
people aren't listening to them because they see
them as homeless people and and not worthy But I
like I said I've had some incredible conversations
with people who didn't have homes or you know
seemed to be lacking and you know tell me about
something that they saw experienced or felt and I'm
just like wow you know I've known you for five
minutes and you told me something deeper and
something I worked with I've known for 10 years and
you know you just shared with me something
incredible So it's Yeah yeah For me it seems to be
all about making sure we can give out of love and
like I love the example of from jesus of You know
carrying the burden from the soldier of one mile is
what he requested but always going the extra mile
going about twice as much of what was what was
normally be expected of you And in that experience
in my experience when you say they've asked for
this but I'm going to give twice as much then that
can be interpreted as love and that that that
experience of love is much much easier to
understand and getting that heart space through the
process and I think that's really the magical place
to be in Yes Have you ever like worked at a job or
it was just kind of like monday and maybe in um you
were sweeping the floor making sandwiches or
something but you were sweeping the floor great and
you had a great attitude and there are other people
who are cooking food who are making more money than
you who aren't as grateful and you know you're just
I mean I've been in the restaurant business for a
long time I've been working with people for a long
time and I realized you know like the best thing I
can do is just work hard and be the best me I can
be and that has always moved me up the ladder
faster than anybody else and I think that it's just
part of that like give more the way you sleep The
floor is all about you it's not about the job it's
not about the money that you're given it's all
about who you are and what's inside You know when
you're grateful to have any kind of job and you're
grateful to have any place to go to to make money
when you are grateful just to be here It shows you
know it sings out loud you know like I'm gonna do
this the best I can You know maybe somebody can do
it better but I'm gonna have a good attitude about
it and that has always brought me abundance And I
feel that when you say that about you know go that
extra mile that's why I feel like that turns your
life and that's another great recipe to turn your
life into abundance is just be grateful to be here
sit the floor the best you can wipe off the counter
best you can I always really pride myself and when
I worked in restaurants and stuff and someone said
well you go clean the counters off and I would
clean them And then I knew that you didn't have to
go behind me There's some people that you figured
you don't have to go behind that person and clean
but I knew when I did it you weren't gonna go
behind me and I knew I think everybody else in that
building new when I did it that I wasn't that I
that I was gonna do it my best and I always like I
said I've always been moved up from you know like a
like a bus boy to this and that to the manager of
the building with the key and you know like I said
I think it was just because and I've gotten jobs
that way to just showing up and like sometimes just
showing up with the mellow mushroom hey man can I
help you clean up And they're like okay sure yeah
you can get paid like I don't get paid but you
don't give me a job eventually you know how to say
that but you know it I just I just kind of knew it
I was like if I just go in there and help there's
no somebody's gonna hire me eventually and I've
gotten many jobs like that without a resume without
having you know have to having a reference there
just like they see it and this guy goes the extra
mile Yeah I want to give this guy a job um
ultimately you know the way people view work
doesn't have to be the seeing as a burden It can be
seen as an honor and a joy that we get to be
serving others and that's what it's about serving
others I think and christ said that the greatest
among us was a servant right That there's something
incredibly empowering about helping others always
because every time you help someone else without
any attachment to it it seems like they have the
next part of your journey You know the next person
you need to meet the next job that you can have or
you know help you know get you somewhere you need
to be and it really just seems like you can get so
much farther with so little with so little and you
know intention with so little trying But it just it
starts with being yourself being initial up and
being grateful that I'm here that I get to work
that I get to do this that I get to try that and
like I'm not above cleaning the floor I'm not above
you know washing someone's feet I'm not above
anything you know you know I'm I'm the universe and
ecstatic motion which means I am the way and the
ocean at the same time you know and that's
incredibly awesome and I feel like how much of our
life would change and we would be in much more
abundance if we just accepted that like yes I'm a
person but I'm also God in the flesh and I'm
humbled to the point that I'm just tiny little
speck but I'm this incredible powerful creator you
know and I create my own life and everything and if
I take responsibility for that man like it just
everything changes you know and it's just like you
know I've been afraid I've been afraid for a long
time to be that person to lead a ceremony or two
talk about something that I think some people would
judge hard but now I just feel like I don't care
you know what my intuition says to do like talk
this person today share this with this person do
this you know figure out a party and and and you
know people are cleaning up grab a trash can take
it out for him whatever it is I've always got more
by doing more and being grateful for the
opportunity as opposed to having this chip on my
shoulder Like I don't take the trash out me do this
me I don't do that you know and I feel like you
know in people when you see somebody you know that
good person that just resonates with you Like man I
know that's a good person and I want that person on
my team I want that person working for me whatever
So yeah ultimately we have to I think a lot of you
know what we're going through is the process of
letting go of who we thought we had to be and and
and throw away our idea of ambition and and take on
a new idea which is more based on these principles
Yes absolutely And I think that's what all
religions are really pointing to you know you can
do all the things I'm doing greater things christ
said all the things I'm doing and greater things
man how come we don't do those things Because he
did the simplest things with utmost importance That
was his mission you know to love people to be there
for someone to listen to somebody I mean one of the
things that I find coming up right now and you talk
about just being with homeless people so many
people don't want to be but he sat with the
drunkards and homeless people and the people at the
bar you stay within the tax collectors and some of
those guys those guys are no there But like that's
those are people who are suffering the most
sometimes the most open people because they are
suffering the most And you know like I need
something in my life for some people who are you
know not that hot or cold yet and they don't
understand that So um I enjoy I work with autistic
kids and adults and I feel like it's an incredible
privilege to get to go into people's homes and work
with sometimes difficult people who have incredibly
difficult problems and to realize that I'm not
there to to judge or to tell them what to do or
what to think But I'm married a lot of times mostly
just the whole space to be there for them you know
to hug them if they needed to love them but they
needed you know say you know what I felt the same
things before you know I felt depression and anger
and you know but a lot of times it's really just
waiting and listening and because I have people
tell you like I'm having this problem I'm depressed
I feel bad They don't necessarily want to be like
yeah I've had that You know like they just want to
be heard You know they just want to be her They
just wanna be like someone's here to listen and I
feel like just being that person that gets to sit
there and listen sometimes is a lot and I feel
grateful that I just get to you know whatever else
you need You want to get something off your chest
You know say it and now they come back to me Is
there anything you need to talk to me about That's
a good one You know that sometimes there is
sometimes there is and it's nice to be able to just
say it to somebody who has no judgment and say you
know what you know that's that's human that's
understandable So you know a life of abundance I
think we're all are worthy We can all have it but
we have to relinquish our attachment to but it has
to come in this way It has to be money It has to be
stuff has to be things it could be a partner it
could be a situation it could be circumstances
events it could be new lost universe instead of you
know when it rains it pours be like it rains
abundant something and avalanches you know um and I
listen to that stuff a lot in the car just over and
over and over again just reprogramming my brain
that I am worthy I am abundant I am you know enough
you know and those things over and over again
because I've said to myself man you're a crappy
person you're worthless and nobody likes you And
I've been that person I said that to myself a
billion times you know and I brainwashed myself to
believe that so now I feel like it's time to wash
it out with some new stuff some new programs some
new orders some new affirmations and sometimes it
takes a little bit of time But I think when it
comes down to it if you're open to a new experience
and having that really spiritual almost out of body
like experience happens sometimes and I think
that's what really changes your life So alright
that was fantastic discussion Yes it was thank you
so much mike Thanks Thanks for listening Thank you
