Starting a New Life
Transcript
Today's service is about new beginnings. It's about ending the year, but you could watch it any time of the year and it would still be relevant, ending the year. It's about new beginnings, starting a new life. I do private sessions all year long and I still share this topic, because people forget.
You you run into challenges in your life, and you know we have to heal the past, but if you're emptying your cup, which is your past that you're trying to heal. If when you empty your cup, you've got to remember to refill your cup. So when people say," Wel,l you know ,I've got this thing and it keeps happening and it's not going away.
" It's always going to be different if you do it right healing and to do it right you have to empty your cup and refill your cup that's all. iI it's not working I either haven't emptied enough or I haven't refilled enough there's not like another thing it's really not as complicated as people think and we'll elaborate a little bit on that because you know we don't want I mean it's so ironic we start a new year happy new year and everybody's year is kind of the same as last year you know we have to make a concerted effort to say I really am NOT interested in this year looking like next year last year I
mean and it shouldn't it doesn't make any sense whatsoever even if we have challenges we're supposed to come out of those challenges higher in consciousness mind you you might have been beat up in the challenge but from what I learned that's what's going to launch me to new levels of consciousness we don't always feel like it which is what's called aging people don't have to age but life on Earth ages us because we take it seriously we actually get involved try to make things happen want to make things happen they
consistently crash on us and it wears us down now that's not bad for us that's it's called to err is human but to come back to life is divine those of us who have the guts the courage to say you know what man that was pretty harsh pretty hard challenging difficult whatever but I got this from it and now I'm ready to launch to a new level I'm gonna share a couple of things about that in just a sec but remember it's we either have not sufficiently released the past or we haven't refilled enough so we want to create a new life we want
to birth a new life now there are reasons why we don't easily release the past you got to release the past and rebuild the future but there are reasons why so tune in to this you can get the CD if you can't remember these details but also even if you're trying to remember them some of you you know take notes when I'm talking and I'll that's fine but even if you don't have pen don't have paper there it's in the back of the seats if you want it but people watching online to just to understand you you are
getting this okay you are getting this you can watch so it's free you can watch it again online on Facebook or on YouTube watch it again and then make notes but if I were in your shoes and I said I really want to make a difference this year in my life I would be making notes and I would put my those notes into application you know I wouldn't just go oh that's interesting it would be like okay starting tomorrow here's what I'm doing I mean I really would step up if possible this is like the the Piscean day in our 12 days and nights of
Christmas in case you didn't get that you know there's there's a talk about that for 12 days nights we're going through the signs of the zodiac but going through the signs of the zodiac you know if you're just born a particular sign and you're still that sign when you die something's gone wrong you're actually supposed to go from the lower aspect of a sign to the higher aspect that's every signs like that you've never been born fated every sign has to at least two symbols like animal symbols sach for example the horse the
lower half the horse and then the mailed of the man on the higher end and he's the Centaur so he's aiming the arrow to the sky right but on the lower aspect these are horses it now the lower aspect of a saginomiya that's that's the the one site but that's not the higher aspect the higher aspect is this guy so if I'm a Sachin going I'm not staying that one I'm gonna go for this then you realize wait since we create our own reality you know what I'm gonna do I'm gonna actually take a look and peek at
the other signs take a peek at it oh well you know this one and the Pisces and the Scorpio and the Libra they're Aries and look at the hose and say to yourself because when you go because mastery is about this master he's not just being the one you were born into it's about moving to the higher but that's not the end real masters become the higher aspect of all the signs and there's one way you can do you know it apply that and cheat in a good good healthy way anytime you read your zodiac and you don't like it read somebody
else's you know like lonely now look I'm gonna meet somebody new today and you might think it's silly but believe it or not when your mind starts to see something you'll start to gravitate towards it so you can do that but it's also one way of applying why not if all the signs are us why do you think that the Divine Mother the the you know Divine Feminine is depicted like on tarot cards or even in paintings all over Catholic churches throughout the world you see the mother the Divine Mother image with a crown of twelve
always twelve stars because she's saying I am the master of the universe I am in control of my destiny I am in charge of the signs not them in charge of me doesn't mean don't look at your charts and don't absolutely they're great great great guidelines one of the first things to do if I'm starting a new year get a chart done give me some guidelines get a journal and transfer you know January's key things that you you know look at and see key events put them in your daily journal because it gives you guidelines and it is smart to
pay attention to that I wouldn't say it's smart to become fated by anything in this world nothing in this world actually has power over us but it gives you some guidelines good time to be looking at starting some new business or the opposite then I would lay low you know I'm not going to go and hide when mercury goes retrograde but if ever you signed contracts when mercury was retrograde you probably know I don't want to do that again because it slows it down it's like it gets snagged things don't go through as easily you know so
it's it's just kind of smart to just be aware of what's happening around us do not to let it control us because if you have to sign a document don't go put your head you know under your pillow and mourn for days sign the document if that's the only day you can do it but to remember you're in charge so don't do it with victim consciousness step up with higher mastery consciousness so there are reasons people do not release the past and that's the first half of healing changing our lives preparing for a new year God will release the past
people sometimes are just stuck in familiarity right the I'm used to this just talking to someone today and man it's almost it's sad and almost just tragic to hear somebody go I know my life is completely stuck or it's messed up or whatever it happens to be and they'll say but I can't um this is all I know or things like that and you just think wow and there's some times you know when we really know but but you could change you know you get all excited it's just frustrating to hear somebody say that's it I'm just resigned
to living you know like a corpse I'm just still I'm resigned to being just in a coma and especially if their loved ones of course guys you're not there's nothing wrong with you going come on you know it's normal to want to see them step forward but then again you have to only give as much as you can feedback wise and then you have to sit back and let them do it in their time familiarities or is a disease but it's that's one reason fear of change is another one similar to the familiar but fear of change is another one when
somebody says I'm just used to this or whatever trust me look more deeply and you'll find terror they're not going well I'm just kind of you know I'm used to this or well I've been married to them for so many years I'm just gonna live it out you know that casual attitude is not casual at all underneath it there's really deep fear of change so that one you know kind of cripples a lot of people another thing that happens that people underestimate if you've done work on stuff like fear or if you've had
abuse you can go while I've been to a counselor it's not working this isn't working that you know sometimes you're under estimating cellular memory because you might make some changes let cellular memory might keep calling you back to that problem you still find yourself unable to breathe when certain things hang xiety attacks panic attacks cellular memory and you might not be using a progressive enough counselor please hear this if you hear nothing else if you use counselors in this world tell them you want progressive tell them
I do not you're not my girlfriend I don't want to chat I don't want to chat and watch you with a notepad and a pen just going mmm how did that make you feel don't do that to me I want you to challenge me give me homework I want you to help me find out what's gone on in my life so I can clear it do you know exercises for clearing do you do are you afraid of asking me questions don't buy that man get them to go for it just say man you know just go for it I've told the story before but you know the long long time ago I had little ones man and
you know having you know just differing ideas with their mom about parenting at the time you know and I remember there was a guy in you who was a friend and he's a great him he had like 30 years behind him counseling so I said dude I'm gonna come and I introduced myself I didn't know him well yet but I got to know but he was good reputation great reputation as a counselor that I'd like to talk to you and I want to talk to you about parenting you know I want to just get another opinion now I had a feeling that when he met me
he's gonna know who I am cuz I was at least known a bit at the time already but I said to him if you're going to be my counselor and you figure out who I am I'm telling you this I want you to talk to me like I know nothing see I didn't say well I'm Michael I'm your dad you know and I said I what if you can't do it then tell me and I won't I won't deal with you I'll go somewhere else I need you to talk to me like you you know I'm like I know nothing you have to be that
vulnerable with it don't don't act like I'm the guy on the mail I know what I'm doing I'm a counselor I'm a 30 year female as a counselor forget it just put it all aside if you can trust you've got yourself a progressive mature experienced counselor then surrender to it and when I stopped seeing him finally after you know a couple years or whatever I remember and this is pretty cool because I I was saying well you know I'll see you later man you know I'm moving to a different town and all that at the time he said I want to thank you
first I said I want to thank you because you've never mentioned God or spirituality but you're quite a religious and spiritual guy and I really dug that I admired that he was like wow that really means a lot to me because I am religious but I don't talk it it's not appropriate supposedly in our sessions he said but but it means a lot that you saw that so that was cool and he said and I want to tell you something the day you walked in and said that was it meant everything to me because to see somebody and I knew who you were and I
knew you were known but to see who somebody who insisted that they not be seen that way that's how it should be done and I said thank you for saying that so guys go like you know nothing if you can trust that you created a healthy progressive counselor if not go somewhere else because you've got to be able to do something different in your life you've got to be able to unveil yourself to somebody not in measured doses one dear friend was going to a counselor and you know and I was kind of noticed they and they some things weren't happening there
wasn't shifting and you know they're going yeah I'm just not getting a lot I said did you tell about your child abuse oh no she said no I will never talk to somebody about that like oh my god what's wrong with people you got to come out so the sooner the better fear of change fear of vulnerability fear of intimacy all these things that you gotta just open up what have you got to lose like I said be responsible and create somebody's progressive enough and then let go you know pray to help create the right
person but then let go and if you say you know what I have definitely released I've opened up I have done a lot of counseling cellular work great but something still aren't happened we need to look at the filling up then that's not the emptying it's the refilling so are you daily con you know calling in the presence of God I don't mean you know just dear Jesus fix my life I'm talking about calling in the presence there's a technique that you could go get it it's free on my website you know the refilling exercise or the communion
exercise your needing to learn to commune with God communion means fill up with that presence so long story short you empty yourself with your journaling your tears your burning ball you empty yourself but then refill but refill everyday you don't have to empty everyday refill everyday fill up with the presence of God viscerally so you call in that presence and you let it wash over you call in that presence again and again a couple dozen times and what you're doing is you're filling the tank this is a tank a reservoir so to
speak right every time you call in the presence the minimum is a drop of God has come into this reservoir now drops not a lot I don't feel it at first but the drop will soon become a puddle the puddle would become a pond the pond will become a lake the lake as you get it an ocean and the ocean a universe and there is no other way you can't take God you take care of that while I'm sleeping there is no other way you have to sit still and call in that presence and let God fill you and the reason we do the healing first
is because you're making room for God because when God pours as you you may remember the parable Jesus saying you know it's like spirit you know trying to pour upon ground but the ground when it's rocky seeds just wash off of it new seeds new life you need to make the soil fertile you need to make it you know get the roots and rocks and weeds out make yourself prepared and that's healing work and you can say but I did healing work 30 years ago so I'm good no man maintenance program every day you could have something trigger you so it's do
your work how do you know if I have issue how do I know if I have you issues to work on anytime you're not feeling absolute tranquility and peace there might be something to look at and you got nothing to lose what are you gonna like be bummed out because you did work and making the room today I mean it can only be good news gosh now I feel like I've made twice as much room for god this is really inconvenient you know just do it it you can't you can't possibly hurt but I have known people on day one and other people
on day 100 that start to feel that viscerally it's not that complicated you're calling in a feeling of God the presence of God like peace and happiness but remember to imagine feeling that peace and happiness don't do it like like kind of a drone you know bees in happiness bees Navin has bee try to try to feel like breathing it in even just for the purpose of a new year Matt bless you I want to feel something new now let's do it and then call in that presence you know be be courageous and have conviction understand that if
you're calling in the presence of God it's very likely it's happening have that kind of confidence there really it's impossible for it not to be happening so then you can say but I don't feel it ah then imagine feeling it and now you've cured that and then you know at the very least something magical is going to happen in the form of God I feel kind of light you may you may see purple you may hear angels you may feel your body turning into a light body in your molecular structure changing and a markup of you know Merck above energy
field around you great but you may not if I were you more important than any of those cool special effects what I would do is just at the very least watch for a shift in your feelings because if you accomplish that you're already a different person and every time you drop a new drop into the reservoir into the tank you're changing you're filling up with the presence you know what's going to happen when that tank is full you're one with God so that's no small accomplishment there's another thing that causes folks to not refill properly
sometimes they're just not this really doing it one more thing you might be doing your work and you're even refilling but you're noticing something still snagging something's still not happening and that is called leaks you know you fill your pond and tomorrow it's down again what's going on I owned a retreat we had pond landscape and all that and I would notice the water down and all that there's holes in the lining there's holes in your energy system believe it or it's and strange but if I have unfulfilled dreams they
become leaks that's why I brought this piece of paper I'm going to show you wishing for things and longing for things I just wish this would have I longed for something it's a leak masters do not have leaks so you have to own that you got some leaks even if you're not feeling like snagged and held back from from fulfilling life you still should watch for leaks because you can only make your life better because what happens is you fill up your water your tank with energy here comes new inspirations from God Wow a meditated I
feel great I feel full fantastic and then the next day you don't feel the energy to go and do it or you got distracted why maybe because of leaks all too often some of us can afford leaks more than others but we shouldn't try to afford them why do I have a leak if you have a leak in your pond do you know what you can do just fill it up again but wait that takes expert effort and it takes money because you're paying a water bill so some of us go we'll all just keep refilling it my relationship that's not
going anywhere something's wrong but I'll just keep making it better and pretending it's okay guys why bother you don't have to stand there with a hose every day filling the leak patch the leaks just patch the holes in the in the rubber laman you know under the pond patch the leaks where do the leaks come from again longing and unfulfilled promise you know promises to unfulfilled wishes promises you don't keep be impeccable with your word as some of you hear it said but you'll watch man what are you doing what do you
you promising a girlfriend you're going to go out to lunch soon but you've told her that 20 times it's better it's actually better to say you know I'm really sorry but I keep saying I want to do dinner and we never do so I'm gonna let it go and if it happens that would be wonderful but I'm gonna stop promising I know that may sound like a downer statement but when you do it you've patched a leak and something's gonna happen you're gonna fill this huh like it's a relief humans like to think that failure is failure and it isn't
when you can acknowledge you're not going to do something you can actually be filled up with new energy but the ego wants us to think it's always failure so that we don't do it meaning patch the leak find what's not working and call it a leak and patch the leak stop talking about dreams and plans I know motivational speakers tell you to do that keep talking about it keep telling cuz it's gonna happen the more you talk about know there are some things that are empowered when you talk about them some things you have to
actually learn to discern which is which but more times than not when people talk about stuff it drains the energy out of them stop talking there's a Bible set and saying a saying in sentence don't let one hand know what the other hand is doing that's partly related to that conserve your energy know what you're doing make your plans inside only in some occasions you speak about it but when you do you're speaking a decree an affirmation yeah baby here's where we're going not you know I've been thinking I'm gonna want to do this and
I'm gonna want to do and I'm planning to do this and I've been talking about it for 28 years and everybody wears ear muffs when they're around me because I talk about it all the time that's not a good sign you're leaking stop talking about it do it or don't do it but be done with it lastly on that when you have ideas and you don't follow through with them when you say what you're gonna do and you don't follow through it's it's hard to understand these things sometimes for people but what you've done is you've
created like a thought-form I can't wait I'm gonna create a such-and-such and then you talked about now here comes a thought form now a thought form means kind of an energy like a geometry that's in your energy field because your consciousness said I would love to have a child or I would love to get a new car whatever it is it becomes a thought form when you've thought it clearly enough it becomes a thought form now it's in your energy field but that thing is is almost like a life form in old old days in ancient magic practices they call it a
hormone quest but it's it's it's an entity you've created but it actually needs lifeforce t live so it's actually gonna start sucking energy out of its creator because it needs to live it's a it's a form it's a creation so its nature is to need energy to live so it starts sucking energy from us and that you could say that's an attachment some people call those attachments that's one form of attachments in people's energy fields our own unfulfilled wishes can
become drains on us so make a list like the one I'm going to show you guys patch leaks do more don't do them but be done say no uh-uh well you know here's a quick example unity of Sedona as well as my own mailing list we just did a recent search and we look because you can tell you can do research and on your you know programs or whatever are there any people that aren't opening the emails because they might go to spam by accident or they may not just open them right you don't need that if you're in business you don't need that oh no
because I have 20,000 email people yeah but only five open your email but 20,000 it's amazing no it isn't it really isn't so we actually go into our email and we just did this again and deleted I think it was thousands of people that have been on our mailing list they're a drain they're just an energy drink they're not consciously bad or any I'm not saying that they're not they're not opening their emails and in the internet world you're actually you're your company is
is punished for having emails that don't get open you look like a failed company clean it up let them go my friends of Michael mere dad we have a wonderful you know Facebook group and you know we tried think we drop 500 people from it just a few months ago which is kind of tedious but I'm all for it you said no isn't it supposed to you're supposed to want millions of friends no I'd rather have five good ones than 5,000 bad ones clean it up please consider it clean up anything if you're gonna get a degree go get it well
I was thinking about that but I I just didn't have time to finish it well how long's it been well eighty six years then just give up the degree oh no but I was I was just about to that is not mastery see that's a human who's afraid to say goodbye to something and then it becomes a drain on you it's actually unhealthy and damaging so say goodbye you know it's like saying to people two things you're in or you're out what would you like to do your enter your app my Facebook page or my email you're in you're out where would you
like to be well I'm in okay then open your emails once in a while I don't have time bye just be done family members I don't care who it is clean things up and reconnect there's a saying others can do as they may but as for me and mine we will serve the god just create a relationship with God I'm gonna talk about some like monk like life I mean I'm just talking about cleaned get rid of debris get rid of going your junk drawers and get stuff that's junk get rid of stuff that's junk
how do I know if you haven't used it in a year you might not ever and some people are think I'm nuts with that go through your tool drawers you don't need five Phillips screwdrivers you probably never even use one but just have one it's okay well what am I going to do with them I spent money on them I wouldn't do that again lesson learned but now you know you can do but I spent money give them away who's gonna want screwdrivers doesn't matter but somebody's gonna want them and you know what yeah yeah I know you put money in
on it now you've gifted money you spent in the form of a screwdriver to people the money you had invested in it you're gifting to people so it's still a wonderful thing I know strange to some people human beings stay stuck in this idea I want to date that person oh I'm gonna I'm gonna fast from relationships I'm gonna clean up I'm gonna become healthier this year man I'm done with that old pattern and and you know it's amazing the the level of tenacity like they can't stick to it do any distraction they meet you know that's it
I'm done smooth talkers and this kind of indictment never again people I was looking for somebody success and and they shut it all down then they meet somebody oh but that one's cute and the person's like hi I'm bottom rock bottom we should get to know each other you know you need to get close to me at rock bottom you know do you have to meet rock bottom really it's like you know what I'm gonna fast and when a person shows up all shimmering and rock bottom as their name they can they can have the smile they can have the words but I'm
gonna take it as a test how do I know it's a test because when I told the universe I'm gonna clean up my soul said really let's make sure and some of us cope it's meant to be yeah it's meant to be a test of the emergency broadcast system don't do it don't do it all but you know but I heard and my friend said I really should cuz I can divorce them get rid of the friends that try to steer you into madness now I'm saying all this but but at the same time of course there's exceptions there are exceptions there are times that
we're about to reach bottom in our lives and we do meet a wonderful person that that happens absolutely but watch because your compulsions and addictions win out way too often so just assume if that's been your pattern it might still be your pattern to give in too quickly and too easily don't say oh this is the exceptions of my life changing the wonderful person showed up just in time if you're used to manifesting distractions if I were you I would think this might be another one how do I know because that's what often happens so
when you're going to start refilling you've got to be pretty tenacious you got it pretty much you have a lot of stick-to-itiveness you've got to have courage you got to say you know I'm gonna follow through with inspirations I'm not gonna have a list of things that I said I'm gonna do and don't do guys the energy you spread into 20 different directions you only need that energy to go into a couple things and they will happen mastery is conserving energy and using it properly the Taoist masters they totally understood that they
understood it on every level from sexual energy to mental energy they understood conservation rejuvenation recycling of energy you're wasting Chi out your hands put your hands somewhere that might be valuable sit and breathe and let your hands be placed on a place that feels a little tight or achy they're all into this whole recycling concept so if you want to rebuild your life get into that idea of recycling you know patch leaks keep moving forward don't expend energy onto topics that are just a waste and think
about this take an inventory of yourself say to yourself well you know I feel like my life's pretty good that's fine good good for you I'm gonna ask you your health finances relationship and work rate them zero to ten zero being you're dead ten being you're in heaven so leave those out so it's really one through nine but zero to ten as we say pick one where do you rate your relationship everything don't say well I like them everything love passion communication everything and then rate your health not well I'm
not dead no rate your pain level your your flexibility your your your tone you know everything about your health fitness okay healthiness non sick everything about your health rate your life zero to ten health finances relationship work rate your life and long story short if you rate anything nine and eight first of all congrats complete congrats because you had to have earned a seven eight or nine it didn't fall in your lap it you earned it even if it's somebody that showed up or a job that showed up guys you had to
have earned because the universe is about lessons and gifts gifts only come from lessons you've passed test you passed so if you have an eight nine whatever up there that means you've done good work in the area of relationship congratulations and it's not prideful or egotistic to say god I'm grateful you pat yourself on the back and say I got it that's great stuff and I can be a great example to other people along the same lines perfect areas that rate six or five that deserves an eyebrow up you know six or five could be a four that is
moving up to an eight so I like that but it could be an eight that's moving down to a four so six or five is an eyebrow raiser but I'll tell you and I've said this many times when you start rating below a five in any area of your life you know sorry because I know it's not always easy to hear but when you five or lower your soul is already assigning the hard way lessons instead of the easy way the hard way means your souls going sweetheart hey honey um we love you and you know we're like distracted honey you know this
relationships it's a - it's a - hello you know trying to get our attention or jobs you know hey listen soul sang to you you know hey you know know if you realize but you're you know your job is a three how do we know because you tell us every day every time you're driving to work you're like eyes rolling and it's a three and you know we ignore it and then lo and behold were shocked that we get fired and then we call friends and go can you believe it they fired me I can't believe it they don't appreciate the good worker I was
and you're saying all this but you're the one who asked to be fired your soul said you know you're drifting away from soul's purpose into a job you don't like we ignore it now you're a six and then you know we're warning you again now you're a five and a four and it's tugging and whispering and radio and TV show about somebody not liking their job and it could be the same job you're in even all these you know warning signs then we get fired and we wonder why and
and then we pray oh Jesus I don't know why they fired me etc and this your soul is saying this is so weird didn't you tell us you didn't like that job you know come on take a look the easy way would be this see it when it's a six or a five and start looking for your souls purpose that's mastery but if you don't catch it until it's a two and you got fired catch it now catch on now that that's a problem and let's get your souls purpose this new year find your souls purpose instead of a job live and have friends
that are soul mates that's plural soul mates buddies French spiritual friends bind them and insist that people have that level of honesty and integrity love friendship you know no settling and and considering that the whole world is a reflection of my mind when I have all those weird oddities negativities jobs I don't like and this like in that all those things were not even able to completely say it's all the other rest of the world why are we allowing that in our space which is my consciousness so don't don't leave any
stone left unturned you know that's the saying anyway so we're going into a new direction the last thing I'll share on that is if you run into obstacles when you're running into your new life you're going you're heading in that new direction and you run into obstacles you're going to be tempted even spiritual New Age teachers have the habit of doing this I guess it wasn't meant to be okay let me promise you Moses Jesus Buddha not one of them ever recited those stinking words I guess it wasn't meant to be did you picture that
did you picture that oh I wanted to reach enlightenment but it was not meant to be it doesn't make any sense it never happened why why because that's not mastery I'm not saying there's not times when we've been right to say okay something wasn't meant to be I'm saying that humans too often said of course they only make one step forward and go it wasn't meant to be why why because somebody sneezed it's like the way you'll know if something is really meant to be typically the one test litmus to
this a 90 percent of the time it'll be right for you you'll see is when you set your course if the payoff is bigger than the obstacle it's probably right to keep going when the obstacle is much bigger than the payoff it doesn't make sense I'm gonna push through all these partnership obstacles so that I can end up with that person who I actually don't even like that doesn't make sense the payoff has to be greater watch for it and you have to have self-awareness to know does it is it bigger is the payoff bigger and and it's it's amazing
when you realize it like for me for example just a long story short is just I'm a speaker you know I speak I write I have no education at all and I'm an author of like ten books but I have no skills whatsoever I mean I might have like a sixth grade education honestly just nothing education up here you know no no intellectual development at all on the on the you know that level all right nothing but I write books but when it came to speaking you know getting out of high school they asked you know so
career day you know where you guys want to go I'm like I have no idea well you know and the teachers knew this guy's odd so let's give it a shot you know so Michael what do you think you'd like to do I don't know of anything in this world that interests me okay and it's like well okay what do you in there showing me papers and forms and different job descriptions but the best they could figure they said well you know Michael you know you're you're gonna like a you need to be a healer like a doctor it wouldn't be medicine
cuz it's not there you know they educated not interested that kind of academia you know and they say or are you may be a minister yet but minister the name minister the traditional sense forty something years ago when I was looking at this wouldn't be me and you look at me right so it doesn't really fit but what I'm leading to is when they said you know and I even had charts done you're gonna be working in front of people I said to everybody to announcements I need to make two things I do not want to do travel and do
anything in front of other people those were the two things and guess what that's my whole life is traveling and speaking in front of people so did something go wrong no what happened was the goal was greater than the obstacle I thought the obstacle is greater from a moment here and there Oh butterflies you know going in front of a group of Pete get the butterflies in those days I'm nervous kind of shy in the first place so I'm nervous it's like this is oh my god this isn't gonna go up just nervous as heck that obstacle seemed huge but it
was small compared to when I did the talks and heard the feedback it was like wow am I going to let this prevent me from accomplishing that so that's all you need to do whether it's partnership question whether its job question just remember the payoff and a really important thing if you want to know what you're gonna do career why start with you know look at some souls purpose charts or something astrology numerology but the key is you have to like what you're doing but you also have to be good at it because some people
like it and aren't good at it some people are good at it but don't like it you have to like it you have to be good at it and lastly it is always best if people want it because you could be great at something that nobody wants a guy named Bill Gates who became like the richest guy ever look what he did he was doing something with computers and nobody wanted it but he knew they did they just didn't know it yet and I was told Michael you're gonna be speaking in front of people I did not know that was possible and there was no name I didn't
look at that chart they didn't have spiritual teacher on there in case that's not obvious there were only like two authors you know Richard Bach and Alan Cohen you know there were only like two of I mean there was there was no such thing there were no spiritual centers you go to and on tour and teach there were some new thought churches but they only had their ministers talking so guys I did this I'm not trying to give you the I walked up the hill in the snow both directions when I was you know a kid I'm not trying to give you one of
those victims stories I'm saying the job didn't exist and that was hard I mean it was the early years meant it was tough financially but I can almost not remember any of that the payoffs greater so don't go and pursue something that's not you're good at it you love doing it and the people need it you know if if they don't fit it if it doesn't fit that criteria then don't bother cuz you're gonna end up in pain go for those three things and is there a payoff can you see
it as something that feels fulfilling to you if you're listening to this talk there's a likelihood that you're a type of person that wants to make a difference and not just have a career and a gold watch after 80 thousand years you're probably the type of person that wants to make a difference this is the kind of criteria I would follow if I'm wanting to make a difference so I kept mentioning it without showing it in detail and all that this this piece of paper here this is a full list of things that I said
goodbye to this year now when I thought I'm gonna make a list I thought well maybe there'll be five things there's I think 25 you know and and so I put everything everything that I was going to draw close to some of them were not easy but I wrote them on a piece of paper you guys have a piece of paper and at home they could probably have one but you guys have paper if you don't have one you'll raise your hand and we'll get you on in a sec but you can write you don't have to write you know a full list but go home and do it I wrote things on
here um gosh you know I mean just some some personal things health-related things or things that are related to relationship or things you know promises people have made to me all a variety of things and when I took each one I made each one into its own piece of paper without going back into the details of that cuz I shared it once I took each one and said goodbye but if you're gonna do it you have to actually mean it and I don't put things I'm not saying you're bad don't put them down if you're not gonna do it because that's a leak right
the things you would like to have done didn't do write them down and say goodbye to them no no because I'm going to listen if you don't mind try to say goodbye to things cuz what'll happen is the energy will recycle and you'll have a newfound life for that thing it'll end up being a good thing for you I promise alright but let it go but the problem is when I say let it go and this is when I did it I had a little prayer going a little statement and my statement included I'm saying goodbye to this but I added and it also means I will not
bring it up again and that's the tough one because you can go I'm gonna let go of that person broke my heart you know eighty years ago and and I still dwell on it and but I'm letting them go this time and you're hedging because subconsciously you know I'm not letting this go then I won't have anything to talk about you know what am I gonna talk about if I don't get that because everybody expected me to talk about that same thing the job I lost the person who rejected me and so on
no you're going to want to be able to promise now I don't mean like it's rigidity to it cuz there's one or two things I mentioned in the lecture that I said I won't talk about again but I'm doing a talk so I still bring it up but you won't hear me so much the moaning something because I'm done and it's really really empowering it's really freeing your egos not gonna be happy about it let's be clear about that there's gonna be a part of you that's like can we dwell on it some more you just say no but these things I said to
myself okay I'm I'm here's one thing I would like to have happened and I did this I think it was in October and I was making a list of these to be prepared today as my January exit done and guess what October didn't end before they were done I was like huh let's just do it you know come on let's just go for it I made my list and I think was the day I made the list I was like well there's a list let's just do it and I did all but like five of them and then I put a little asterisk
note these the last five it'll be farewell I put farewell ritual January first so there's a few that were righteous for me to wait because it actually needed some time to conclude okay so you may not do all of them today tonight tomorrow I would if I were you but some you're gonna find actually need you know if it's you know I don't want to name some specifics on you but there's just some that you might say I'm gonna give this three months but that's what I would do guys I'm going to do this for six months and let's say June
first if such-and-such isn't happening i rated something a two if by June first it isn't at least a six if not a seven I'm gonna be done with it and humans will be nervous about these things so you have a choice you get to be humans and be all nervous and not do any of it or decide that you'd like to be more like a master because it's inevitable I mean today next year 50 years from now eight lifetimes you get to choose when to be more like a master but it's inevitable so let's just do it it takes it takes some courage friends
you thought were friends maybe but you haven't heard from but you were just about to call them but it's been 16 years maybe call them or tear the number out of your phonebook and burn it you don't hate anybody don't get me wrong don't do that but say goodbye the person you're hoping will come back to you but they didn't why'd they even leave maybe say goodbye you're gonna clown you know I always say you know climb Mount Everest you know but you're 102 I just would say it's probably not gonna happen unless you
take a plane and skydive and down to mount Everett maybe but it's not gonna happen so just say goodbye and the egos gonna say no that's failure and you say no it's success because I chose to say goodbye I'm in an empowered position to say goodbye and the energy will go and it will recycle okay the book you wanted to write you know you have wrote it and it's been you know six years in a manuscript somewhere you don't want to start over God you got a book half written I would burn it because believe it or not it'll rewrite itself but even
better and it'll come from a fresh energy the same as relationship I'm not saying burn the relationships but the same as well let them go and they will recycle is that all making sense I know it's a little intimidating but like I said I have a whole list of things what one of them for me was touring you know I finally said you know I tore a lot and that's okay but I also had to accept I said to myself I see something happening in new thought churches and they're starting to constrict and go into a little more old-fashioned styles a lot
of them and I could try to talk them into staying progressive I can try and say no no look I'll come into her more often and raise the energy here but I watched and I tried and I saw that it wasn't happening so I had to announce to a couple of particular churches over the last year or so you know I won't be back nothing to do with them they might have exactly the right minister the right audience everything it's not right for me because I need that fresh that progressive energy I'm I'm not getting
any younger you know so at almost 60 now I'm not gonna go and fight for everybody's you know spirits what they wanted or they don't and same with our relations you know there's a time in our lives where we work to do things and a time in our lives when we get to sit back and have it more the easy way we've done our work and you might feel the same way with your relations your family members you may not be able to knock on their door anymore to get them to like you if you have family members that don't want to be nice to you so you have
to get a tissue you know make that notice okay thanks goodbye I'm sorry this didn't work out say goodbye cry take some alone time get a counselor to help you do what you need to do but don't bargain yourself away don't betray yourself anymore it doesn't actually serve us all right Thanks so tune into that for a moment does it feel like you could really commit to the thing you were saying goodbye to are you okay with it all right if it's hurt you know I'm sorry I know you know pain it hurts it's a it's a bummer to have some of the things
we've gone through but you deserve to be done with its effects on you you deserve that and if you say well you know there's something I really would have loved to have happen it could be a disease I would say you know what it's then I'm letting it go now and if it's still there then I accept that it's there but I'm not gonna wish anymore it's gone where it's there and if it's there I'm going to start accepting not failure accepting meaning this is what is I would rather accept what is then
wish that something weren't one is empowering believe it or not and you're led to believe that accepting something means failure that's because the ego in all people wants us to think it's failure because it would empower us to let it go I'm going to accept it I've got such-and-such you know I'm going to a specialist I went to six specialist I did this I would x-rays and MRIs and be ATS and whatever else and they said they can't fix okay then that's it I'm good I
mean really just say fine because none of it's real and really has power over you anyway so it's okay that's better than the constant it has you hooked where you're wishing and wishing and the same goes for behaviors addictions and so on guys just do what you can man change what you can and accept what you can't and it is empowering it is helpful and healthy but change what you can step up and then accept what you can write it on that piece of paper all right I'm still affirming and owning that if it can be healed great but I'm also
accepting poof and now it doesn't have me hooked you see it's like wow instead of gosh I wish I that could be fixed or healed or I wish my lottery or whatever you know it's okay I am as God created me I'm actually quite okay spiritually speaking if you have any doubts about it ask yourself just use your imagination and ask yourself if you have a loved one let's say that's passed away do you think it would be healthy for them to go to the other side wishing they still got that new pair of shoes or wishing they didn't buy a
parachute do you really think how much energy would you recommend when you see somebody passing over in hospice would you say listen if you have any regrets about any shoes you didn't buy you know you should let that go now you know you you know what are you gonna do it's they're not gonna be miserable you wouldn't tell them to hang on to it right you should really have remorse over that the same as you would tell anybody you care about treat yourself the same way honey you know it just looks like that friend
you wanted at school today you know how they won't be your friend and they really tease you and they gossip about honey why don't we just move forward let's get new friends really mommy is that okay hell yeah I mean heck yes give yourself full permission to have a good life and I'm not you know I'm not stupid I know that that's not always easy because it means goodbyes that are sometimes painful but I would rather cry today and then stand again tomorrow than to half cry the rest of my life just do it just go for it
people that have passed away but I wish they hadn't but they did but I want them back that's not gonna happen they've made horror movies about those kinds of things wishing people would come back after they were dead didn't you see that man that spooked me as a kid I think it was Edgar Allen Poe don't do it like towage them back from the dead they're gone it's okay so I know it's not easy then cry because it is a bummer you lost you know I missed them it's okay then
cry let someone hold you therapy it journal it process it but there's a moment where you stand and say I'm ready to start again but Who am I without that person Who am I without being married I didn't want to not be married I thought it was forever yeah a lot of people thought a lot of things but it didn't did it no but I wish okay but let's instead of wishing let's accept done brush it off stand up it's called resurrection it's actually a smart thing everybody can be crucified
but almost nobody knows how to resurrect come back to life what a great example you are to your kids to any of anybody and everybody you know I mourned I wouldn't do anything from my side stayed in warm baths 24/7 you know just oh my comfort comfort comfort tea hot chocolate I did everything I took off work for a week a month or whatever but today I'm choosing resurrection and I say you know what I know part of me says I don't know who I am without that person the best answer to that but I'm willing to find out I don't know but I'm
willing to find out that's all you got to say you don't have to know who you are your new life you just say but I'm willing to find out and it's gonna be good because when you come out of the dark night of the soul or any challenging phase of your life even just the end of the year with no challenges end of the year get ready we're gonna launch into a new life when you do it with the things I've described today patching leaks saying goodbye doing healing crying whatever and then
refilling with God it's gonna work and you're gonna see a new life join us if you want you can join us in our Wednesday class it starts this Wednesday the free intros this Wednesday co-creating a new life so if you want to take it to another level you're welcome to join us all right and tomorrow Aries day for the 12 days and nights of Christmas Aries day what do you think that's about new beginnings don't rush in headfirst but do walk get up and walk forward does anybody have anything to share think
about this for just a sec what you heard or learned today that would be the most helpful to you and will take up the collection while you're thinking about that we're going to take up our collection to do our closing song so if the ushers wouldn't mind bring the baskets around folks online please be generous as you can all of you here and there just be as generous as you can we appreciate it it's okay either way we have a prosperity prayer remember even when you can't afford then just
imagine that you can I didn't say imagine that you can and write checks accordingly I'm saying just imagine put your hands over the basket and just imagine that you're doing that alright it's alright our prosperity prayer holding your love offering to your heart divine love flowing through me blesses and multiplies all that I am all that I have all that I give and all that I receive and so it is now it'll only take about a minute but if anybody can tune in to what you learned or heard today
that might be helpful for your life and I know some of you are being kind of inhibited today about stuff that you're gonna say goodbye to I know may be challenging but can anybody share what did you hear or learn today that could be important in your life tune into that and we'll spend only about a minute on that and do our closing song okay yes refill bring in the sweetness once you've emptied out the bitter you know or whatever it was of the past very good anyone else what did you hear or learn
yes being aware of the presence of God there's nothing more important even people that meditate on the nothingness you know empty space they're not getting very far they are getting good at clearing their mind but guys it only takes seconds I'm not saying only do seconds try to do minutes if you can but what could be more important than viscerally feeling the presence of God so you can be a trained meditator at holding your mind still and not get as much out of a novice who sits and calls on that
presence and fills up with a feeling of God which we all deserve and just keep applying what I said earlier about what if you had a child and they said mom you know dad I I want how to feel God are you gonna give them some complicated convoluted technique that they can't apply God I mean think of it just say honey I'm gonna have you call out close your eyes for a minute I want you to think of the happiest you've ever felt can you do that sure mommy you know and daddy or whatever they you know they they have our memory you've just
put them in touch with God as far as a child in two seconds could understand it and that made more progress than somebody chanting Omani pod me and boom Shakalaka for hours you've accomplished more because you put him in touch with the feeling presence of God makes sense alright thank you guys and in a second we're gonna just do our closing song I just wanted to share one quick personal note it's kind of funny because well you guys some of you don't know me I think a lot of you were guests out of town and all that but it's kind of funny I talked
to a couple of mighty Knights talked to my daughters the last couple of days and said you know Merry Christmas all those good things but you know I was talking to was the youngest one and I said yeah wasn't I a great dad and she's like whatever and I'm like I'm like no really I mean think of the cool things like what dads do these kinds of things and talk like this is so it was so great being a dad and kind of walking you guys through the things we did she goes yeah well I remember the one time mom went to visit her her mother who was
dying and so you had to take care of us for the holidays and she said and so you decided to take us to some weird spiritual movie and then when we were done you know you ordered more popcorn because I love theater popcorn because it's as synthetic as you can find but the oil in it that you know they call it butter like wow that stuff is so toxic but I love it so I always tell them you know tons and layer you tons and tons of butter and you layer it you put a little pepper and a little soak it and then
more popper and soak it and there needs to be a pull at the bottom of the box anyway that's that's the wording I use when I tell so my daughter says yeah remember and then we went to the theatre and you ordered more popcorn and they and the lady said well it's you know it's Christmas Eve aren't you guys going you know to dinner and my daughter said and daddy and you told her this popcorn is a hard dinner she's like you actually she goes in the girl was appalled because you actually think you could sustain life on popcorn
but not everybody can do that Dad so and see the girl was all appalled so I said to her oh no but tomorrow is New Year's Day I'm not gonna give him popcorn again we're going to Taco Bell so many people don't understand me and my children have all been in therapy but you know that was my life pretty cool huh thank you so much for joining us all around the world these people watch and you should read the feedback by the way it's on the public page Michael my dad because they're thanking you guys pretty consistently for your support for your
presence and for really supporting that we do a presentation out there online okay so you are a part of that but thank you and I'm saying to you all a absolute stellar evening and New Year when you're driving be careful in the evening all right especially if you're here in snow and all that but be careful with driving but take good care of yourselves and each other and vow to have a new life a much much better life but vow and stick to it so peace to you and thank you for the support you've given us over the last
