good morning Michael. Good morning Lee and as I listen to all of your
what you can show the battle is like okay now this guy is definitely speaking my language so
really glad to be on the show with you today. Hey my pleasure to have you. I believe that it's
great for the audience and I know we have an amazing show on tap. If you would kind of tell
us a little bit about your story and hop into the new book. Yeah so let's go back about 25 years okay.
I was 23 years old and I was living the American dream. I had the house, the wife, the 2.5 kid,
the 401k, the vacation and all of that and by society standards I had succeeded and within
approximately a six and a half year time frame that American dream turned into the American
nightmare as I went through a divorce, a bankruptcy, a foreclosure, a deep deep state of depression
and I was homeless for two years living out of my car and during the darkest period of my life
I received a miracle. I was sitting up late one night because I was too depressed to sleep
and I was sitting at the edge of my bed looking across the room at my bookshelf. When I happened
to notice that every book on my bookshelf had something to do with getting rich or making money
and as I looked at those books this question just popped in my head. Michael what if you took all
the energy and effort you've used in trying to get rich and simply figure out how to be happy
and as simplistic as that question may sound it literally changed and saved my life in an
instant. All of a sudden as after asking that question I had this amazing clarity and my depression
lifted and I intuitively knew that somehow I was going to be able to rebuild my life and it was
going to become extraordinary. And so after asking that question I stopped reading books I'm
getting rich and making money. I thought I reading books on psychology philosophy spirituality
metaphysics personal development and I went on what I'll call this amazing journey of transformation
and as a result of that journey I was able to rebuild my life and now I'm living my version of
an extraordinary one and so I decided I want to share the lessons that I learned along the way
and so I started writing books and so this is actually book number nine that I've written
and it is my intention to support and empower people to transform their lives from the inside
out and that's my motto that's my tagline and that's what I'm all about helping people change
their mindset so they can change their lives. Phenomenally stated wow.
So wow that's that's quite an experience. Can we talk about desire and a person having desire?
What's actually stopping them from I guess experiencing their desires like why is it so
difficult or why is it a challenge or how do you well become the obstacle?
But I think first of all you have to make a distinction between a want and a desire because
they're not the thing. Most of us want things right we want a house we want a car we want these things
and that's that's the human nature. We want things nothing wrong with that but I believe
a desire is a lot deeper. A desire a true desire a heart desire comes from the soul comes from the
spirit. It is your spirit's way of saying it wants to create something and so a true desire is an
interstate of awareness that you are here to create something and so what keeps us from creating
things first of all we're disconnected from our soul because we've been conditioned to believe
or to always look outside of ourselves so we're not looking internally to listen to our souls
but the main reason most people don't feel their desires is because of fear. Fear of not being
good enough fear of not being smart enough fear of not having the right tool and yet all of us
human beings have within us the capacity to be to do to have to create anything our heart desire
but it's a matter of transformation it's a matter of stop looking outside of ourselves
connecting to the divine essence of who we are when we do that in fear move to the side.
Wow.
So so you just gave us like a summary of what happened to you prior to me asking about desire.
What like how did you begin to organize and move forward and the reason I'm asking is because I know
that there's somebody listening and there in a they feel like they're in a really really bad
spot that they can't get out of so walk us like if you can step by step exactly what you did like
you cleared your mind or whatnot etc etc can you lead us step by step like we would eat an elephant
piece by piece.
Okay so first let's understand that as human beings life on our life is not linear in other
words if I told you exactly what I did and you followed exactly what I did your life is still
not going to be the thing your life is different than mine but here's some things to consider
if you're stuck in that place where your life isn't where it's supposed to be.
First of all it's important to recognize who and what you are as a human being.
Now as simplistic as that might sound most people don't really know because we live in a culture
that has conditioned us to think that we are human beings having a spiritual experience
versus spiritual beings having a human experience and if you can make that distinction and recognize
that as a spirit as a soul you have a divine purpose and so when your life isn't going well
and things are sort of chaotic and things aren't working I will assert that it is because you are
out of alignment with your soul. Now from my own perspective when I went to my divorce my bank
reps see in foreclosure as difficult and as painful as they were what I can now see is that
they were the best thing that ever happened to me even though they were painful and difficult
so we have to understand that being out of alignment with our soul is what causes us to experience
adversity and challenges so the first step is what I'll call awareness.
We have to become aware first of all that we're spiritual beings secondly that we have access to
what I call divine intelligence now you can call divine intelligence whatever you want to call
it some people call it God some people call it Jesus Buddha you can call it whatever put whatever
label you want on it but actually there is a intelligence of divine intelligence that permeates
your being if you want to get out of a situation that you're in you must come to the acknowledgement
that you have access to this now a lot of people might call it prayer but I say it begins with
first of all recognizing for me this is what happens I was in a place of so much pain I had two choices
it was either get help or die there was no in between now the good news is I didn't drink I didn't
smoke a de-drug gun into that or I would have been dead I can assure you but for me once again
that pain was so great that I needed to do something different and that something different for me
started with my courage to go to therapy by taking that first step by simply acknowledging
that I needed help it opened up floodgates the transformation so for anybody who's listening
to this and they're dealing with some challenges and they don't want to hear it is woo woo God
stuff the first thing you have to be woo woo woo is to say I need help and know that there is support
and help out there for you when you gain the courage to say that now once you make that first
step and you decide that you want to get support then the transformational journey will begin
and once it begins you have to learn to start listening to that divine intelligence that is
within you which I'll call intuition when you make the choice to transform and you really commit
to that transformation what will begin happening is you will always start receiving divine ideas
insight synchronicity things will kind of happen and you kind of go wow why did I just meet that
person or why did I get this email amazing synchronicity start to happen and you start being guided
but at divine intelligence within you but it begins with your willingness to start by saying
I need help and it is in that lack of surrender that we can learn to connect to our soul
wow nicely stated
so I know you deal with mindset a lot um do you teach us what do you know about mindset what you
be experiencing the expertise you glean from your experiences about mindset so when you when you
talk about mindset we could summarize it simply by saying being able to know and to understand
and connect to what we're thinking mindset is simply a form of thinking what you think about
you bring about so if you have a negative mindset that means you're going to be thinking negatively
or guess what you're going to attract negative experiences into your life so shifting a mindset
is about shifting the thought that you have because thoughts literally create reality
and if we aren't conscious of what we're thinking we're gonna we're gonna create by default because
no matter whether you realize or not your mind is always creating something and so the question
becomes are you want to create consciously or you want to create unconsciously so mindset is simply
the process of getting in touch with what you're thinking now i'm a huge proponent of meditation
and for some people they think that meditation is the process of making your mind go blank
or you don't hear anything that's not meditation for me meditation is simply the
understanding and recognition of what you're thinking about because most of it's been said
that we have 50 to 60 000 thoughts per day okay science tells us that on any given day we're thinking
the same thought that we did the day before so to change your mindset you got to change what you're
thinking once again it comes back to awareness are we willing to investigate ask ourselves
questions about what we're thinking so put it this way if you knew what's absolute certainty
that your thoughts were creating your reality wouldn't you want to think positively i say
it answers yes you'd want to think positively so that you can have positive experiences in your
life and that's what mindset is all about it's about becoming aware of what you're thinking
and recognizing that what you're thinking is creating your experience in life
nicely stated since we're on that topic and personally i equate the soul with the subconscious
talk to us about like you said conscious and unconscious how do we discover what
our unconscious thoughts are and then how do we course correct if we have
the unconscious blocks or the negative patterns in our subconscious so if you look at the subconscious
mind the subconscious mind is like a tape recorder right so when we're born we're basically
recording everything that happens in our lives and those recordings become beliefs okay so if we
experience love and unconditional support as children we grow up with a set of beliefs that
i'm lovable that you know i'm intelligent so forth so on if we receive the negative programming
negative takes this you will then the beliefs are i'm no good i'm not good enough etc so if you
thought think about subconscious beliefs it is the subconscious beliefs that are actually running
your life so if you think of the subconscious mind like an iceberg so 90 percent of an iceberg is
below the surface of the water right 10 percent of the iceberg is above the water well the 10 percent
of the conscious mind is what most people process through but they don't recognize that the subconscious
mind is a thousand pounds more powerful than the conscious mind so the conscious mind is simply
our rational thinking but it is our subconscious mind those subconscious beliefs that dictate our
behavior and here's another way to look at it so imagine you know someone who is an astrophysicist
okay and astrophysicist obviously is a very intelligent person so their conscious mind is very active
now if you give that person the astrophysicist a book on relationships they could study that book
they could intellectualize the concepts in the book and they could tell you all about
relationships but when they get into a relationship a lot of them have problems with relationship even
though they study and they consciously know how does their relationship why is that because there's
subconscious beliefs about themselves will override the conscious mind what they think they know about
relationships are irrelevant when it comes to how we feel about ourselves so the subconscious mind
the subconscious programming is what dictates our behavior so as you have you ever seen a story where
you have marriage counselors getting divorced you know a marriage counselor getting divorced
you kind of think wait a minute wait you teach people how to have great relationships but you
can't have one yourself what's that about well I will admit is because their subconscious beliefs
about themselves are different than the conscious beliefs they have about teaching people how to be
in relationship so the key is the subconscious mind is the storehouse of our beliefs our beliefs
create our reality and if we want to change our lives we have to go into the self-conscious
mind and change those negative beliefs the positive one wow nice well you didn't hard today
talk to us about self-concept or self-image I think you connected
well I think it was Maxwell Malt who wrote the book psychosybernetics and I think he's the one who
actually termed the coined the term self-image and self-image is really just a set of beliefs
that we have about ourselves how we see ourselves our self-image is a compilation of the beliefs
that we have in our subconscious mind about who we are and so if you look at people that are really
successful and people there are people that you know only outside they look really successful
but only inside they're driven by a sense of I'm not enough and that's why they're successful
they're successful because there's a there's a shame in them that says if I don't have
tough positions accomplishments then I'm nobody so that sense of self is pretty much non-existent
so that's why we we fall into addictive behavior because addictive behavior is on the attempt
to feel good about ourselves and the reason we don't feel good about ourselves is because of
the subconscious program so self-image is simply a storehouse of beliefs that we have about ourselves
nicely stated so how can we what is the process to
change your belief system for the best
well once again I'm a huge proponent of meditation and meditation simply helps us
quiet the mind so that we can hear the thoughts that are going through our minds
now one exercise that I like to do in terms of uncovering beliefs is a really simple process
so you get a piece of paper and at the top of that piece of paper you go into make a statement
and then you go into complete that statement for example if I took a piece of paper and I put
at the top of that that paper money is okay money is and for one minute what I want to do is I want
to free fall my thoughts to complete that statement so I might write money is the root of all evil
or money is you know scarce or money is bad or money is possible or money is you know just energy
so if I will allow myself to free fall my thinking through this process it's going to help me uncover
some subconscious deeply held beliefs that I have about whatever that topic might be
so you can change that from money is to men are are women are or the world is but if I will allow
myself to just put out the thoughts that I have to complete that sentence it will let me know
what's stored in myself conscious mind and it's a simple yet powerful process that you can do it
with any topic and once you know what your beliefs are then you can work on changing those beliefs
nice it's stated by several I guess of the thought leaders religious leaders or what not that
when we come into the world and we receive two gifts mind and speech so talk to us about the power of words
well words aren't as important as feelings so here's I'll make a slight distinction
we hear a lot of talk these days about mental health all right I will assert that the real
challenge isn't mental health but emotional health so words are obviously very very powerful
and the words that we use are very very powerful but even more powerful of the feelings behind the
words or shall I say the feeling underneath the words because our true essence as human beings
is love love is the highest vibration in the universe so if I'm connected to that energy of love
that feeling of love my words are going to follow that feeling okay if I'm connected to the infinite
if I'm connected to this just divine intelligence that I'm talking about then everything that I do
say or how I act is a result of that inner feeling of love that divine impulse of love and so when
we talk about words as powerful as they are if you really want to transform it's even more important
to connect to the feeling because feeling of a language of the soul and when we learn to connect
to the language of the soul to the essence of who we are that's when we transform nicely stated
talk to us about taking 100% personal responsibility for your life and how when you have
an accountability partner or someone that keeps your caliber how that magnifies your growth and
expansion the very first step to transforming your life is just what you said excuse me and
that is to be willing to take 100% responsibility for how your life turns out now from a spiritual
perspective if you're willing to go there if we're going to take 100% responsibility for our lives
we have to ask ourselves well hmm if I'm 100% responsible for my life I can't be responsible for
my divorce and and and getting fired from my job and and people being mean so it's it seems like
responsibility is denying that challenges happen but taking 100% responsibility for your life simply
means that you're willing to gain your personal power it means that you're willing to say if it's
to be it's up to me and so when you choose to take 100% ability for your life if you will accept my
idea that there is this divine intelligence in the universe when I say I'm 100% responsible then
that divine intelligence begins to move through me for me as me but if I'm constantly pointing
finger and placing blame on others on circumstances then I can't I don't have any power so ideally I
have to say it's all me I take full responsibility for all of it so as I look at my life and again
as I mentioned during the darkest period of my life when things were just really dark
I couldn't understand this concept because I was in too much pain and so I can only say this in
retrospect but what I do know what absolute certainty as I look at my divorce I now see how I was
responsible for it I was responsible for my life shall I say falling apart it was all me
it wasn't God doing it to me it was the fact that my soul knew that I wasn't doing what I was put
on this planet to do and so my soul had to take drastic measures to get my attention so that I
would change direction and so it went look Mike sorry about this bro but you're just not doing
what you're supposed to do so I got to smack you upside the head so you can get on course now
I never dreamed of being a writer or speaker but as a result of that cosmic slap on the head
I awakened to some divine gifts that I had and interestingly enough when I first began this journey
I was an atheist who did not believe in God at all and so this whole thing about self responsibility
is simply making the commitment to be in communion with divine intelligence saying hey I got this
I can do whatever I set my mind to I've got you on my team so how can I lose now you mentioned
accountability partner but extremely important to have a tribe is that the term that you use
is a tribe which is simply a group of like-minded people to support you in your transformation
and so having a tribe is the key because if you pay attention to mainstream media we are so inundated
with negativity and pessimism and cynicism and to start having these types of conversation
most people are willing to have them most people aren't willing to take responsibility for our
life most people are going to sit there and blame the government, trying Trump, trying racism,
but you know blame their age, blame their parents and so there's no shortage of blind
but when we have a support system that doesn't allow us to play victim when we have a support
system that's going to challenge us and encourage us to move in the right direction
boom damn magic happened and that's what's key you've got to have that connection to spirit
you've got to have a support system to support you in moving through all the challenges that
you have to go through until you reach that state where you're completely connected to the divine
intelligence that created the universe. Phenomically stated, would you care, I know you can, would
you care to talk to us about imagination, what you believe it is, and visualization?
Imagination is simply the imaging end of divine ideas so once again if you will accept my idea
that there is this divine intelligence that permeates the universe it is this intelligence that
causes a bone to heal causes the planet to stay in alignment it is the source that creates world
if we align with it it will begin giving us insights through pictures, feelings, intuition if you will
so imagination is when we connect to the divine source it is going to give us everything we need
as we move along this journey and so as mentioned when I was an atheist I remember if you would even
say the word god I couldn't hear a word you said my mind was so close to the possibility that there
was something outside of myself that I couldn't hear you and so god is a loaded word right when
you say god it means a lot of different things to different people that's why I choose to use
the term divine intelligence because divine intelligence isn't connected to any particular
religion it is connected to science and truth and so imagination in my experience is what happens
when we open our minds to connect to the divine intelligence for example when I was homeless for
two years living out of my car I was sitting in the I would be sitting in the back seat and I had
these little sticky notes that I was right little things on little affirmations I thought like a
little vision board would be sticking those on the back seat right if I were to stick them on the
back seat on one of the sticky notes I wrote I am going to become a New York Times best-selling
author now think about this I'm in the back seat of a car because I have nowhere to live I have no
job I'm I'm so broke I can't pay attention but yet I had an idea and I wrote down an idea that I
was going to become a best-selling author and I hadn't even written a book yet so the question
becomes where did that idea come from where did it thought that I'm going to become an author
come from I will assert that it came from my soul it came from divine intelligence and so when I had
the thought that I was going to become an author it took me a couple of years but eventually I
wrote my first book it didn't become a New York Times best-seller but it's so very well but just
imagine that here's this guy in the back seat of a car with nothing but yet he has his idea
well see that's imagination that's tuning in to divine intelligence and when we tune into divine
intelligence on a regular basis we will have an infinite amount of divine ideas because
ideas are the currency of the universe nicely stated wow so talk to us about focus
and focus mastery because it said that what we focus on expands and that's just pretty fitting
that you will be in that certain disposition but you will receive a wonderful idea and then
have the courage to actually write it on paper and they say when you write something on paper it
becomes real absolutely and so focus is that process of paying attention to what you have an
intention for so let me say that again focus is paying attention to the intention that you have
so when I want to become an author I have to focus my attention on learning okay my intention
was to write a book but my attention had to be on gained knowledge to be able to write the book
so it takes an incredible amount of focus on putting your attention on something to feel
and intention so once again I come back to the process of meditation learning to meditate and
to to and I don't want to use the word control but that's probably the most appropriate control
what's going through your mind so meditation allows me to filter out all those negative thoughts
that might come up and you do this often enough and you you start not having negative thoughts
because you're focusing on positive thoughts and so the focus is being willing to pay attention
to what I'm thinking but even more importantly paying attention to what I'm allowing in my mind
see one of my favorite quotes is all of the water in the ocean cannot sink a ship unless it gets
inside of the ship so if you look at our society and if you look at all the negativity out there
it can't thank you unless you allow it to get inside of you and what does it mean to get inside of you
it means that you start thinking about all that negativity
so focus is the process of paying attention once again to that which you have an intention for
well stated talk to us about the role that attitude and aptitude play in all of this
yeah so attitude is everything um
attitude comes back to self-image because your self-image is going to dictate your attitude
if you feel good about yourself if you love yourself then your attitude is going to reflect that
when you see people that are really negative and angry all the time it's the result of
a mindset and inner self-image of I'm not worthy something's wrong with me that's why people have
these negative self-images and so if you want to
if you want to have you know that you know they say your attitude determines your altitude right
so the higher vibration I can put my mind in the higher I'm going to be lifted in the world
so my attitude is going to dictate how high up I can go and for me a positive mental attitude
has no ceiling because like the universe it's infinite so having that positive attitude is the
key to succeeding in anything nice and stated what does success mean to you what does it accomplish
success to me is waking up in the morning and then going to bed at night
and in between those times doing exactly what you want to do and having fun doing it that to me is success
nice to say it talk to us about the power to be able to make it is to there are some people
I mean they won't make a decision to save their life why is it why is it that way
that they don't make that they can't make decisions yeah or they're I mean like really you have to really back them against the wall for them to make a decision
and the reason I'm asking this is because I know in the audience there are different very types of people so I'm trying to get me for everybody
yeah so you know lack of lack of decision making is usually a sense of a lack of self-esteem it's a lack of self-confidence in oneself
afraid that if I make the wrong decision then I'm you know I'm not good enough or it reinforces the idea that I'm not good enough so the person that that can't make decisions is just unsure of themselves
and so the key the changing that is change your self-image the key the changing that is learning self-love the key to changing that is to stop worrying about what other people think and simply learn to think for yourself to make your own decision
now easier said than done for most people but that's the key the reason you don't let the reason some people don't make decisions is because they simply aren't
comfortable and confident in who they are as human beings
wow
so
can you talk to us about the power partnership because I'm a numbers guy and everything that I aim to do I'm thinking multiplication
talk to us about the power partnership
well partnership in terms of relationship or partnership in terms of like accountability
when you say accountability and then like you know affiliated with life-minded people how
it gives you momentum and quicker acceleration
so when you start talking about partnership let's let's let's go to the good book where it says
well two where two or more are gathered there shall I be
so there's power and energy so if I surround myself with like-minded people that are doing what I'm doing and
okay let me let me back up a little bit have you ever heard of God got a name David Hawkins
yeah power versus force yeah power versus force so he came up with his consciousness
scale which for those who are not familiar with it the consciousness scale from zero to a thousand
and so just imagine that this scale is simply a scale of vibration so the average human being
vibrate that around 200 e-state around too much the enlightened masters are like 700 to a thousand
so when you start talking about partnership if I'm vibrating at a 200 I definitely don't want to
vibrate it with anyone less than 200 right because I want to make sure that that energy stays high
that energy stays up so the goal is to constantly move up to scale so if I'm going to do that then
I have to start associating with people that are maybe doing at 300 or 400 so how do we do that
we read their books we go to their seminars we learn from them so that we can now also
raise our vibration and so partnership is extremely important and that's why you have to find
teachers that will help lift you up help your vibration and so you go to the people that are
vibrating at higher levels than you but you can move up that scale so make sense make sense
with this whole covid thing in the pandemic that's here
I'm a creative person
talk to the audience about entrepreneurship and why they should consider entrepreneurship
in addition to working a job
well I actually wrote a book called the new face of entrepreneurship
and it is my belief that there has never been a better time to become an entrepreneur than right now
as a matter of fact you know people have bought into the media portrayal that the world is going
to hell in the hand basket but I'll say just the opposite obviously covid and all the racial
tensions we have are real thought challenges in the world today but if you want to look a little
deeper in my opinion and that's why I wrote this new book there's never been a better time to be
allowed on the planet than right now and so more people now are shifting away from just looking for
a job they're trying to find a passion they're trying to find a purpose they're trying to find
something that not only feels their bank account but feels their soul and being an entrepreneur
can help you do that now everybody everybody listening to this program has some unique
gifts and talents that they said they were born whatever matter of fact it's encoded in their
DNA if they're willing to tap into find out what those gifts and talents are and then figure out a
way to monetize those gifts and talents then you have a company that you can build you can become
an entrepreneur now I have a different definition of entrepreneur to me an entrepreneur is simply
someone who receives compensation and exchange for product or service okay let me say that again
an entrepreneur is simply someone who receives compensation and exchange for product or service
now here's where most entrepreneurs get tripped up did you know that there are three types of
compensation that an entrepreneur should receive please no okay there are three types of compensation
the overwhelming majority of people when they become entrepreneurs they only think of one
compensation which is financial and obviously when you're going to start a business you got to make
a profit so yes you have to have financial compensation but there's two other compensation
that are actually even more important number one there's spiritual compensation spiritual
compensation arises from a belief that I am fulfilling a divine purpose that spiritual compensation
the next compensation is what I'll call emotional compensation and emotional compensation
is what I provide my service of product I feel good about it
so if you will prioritize the compensation spiritual first emotional second financial third
rest assured you lay the foundation for creating fulfilling and meaningful companies
so what's happening in our world is that the overwhelming majority of companies and entrepreneurs
they focus only on financial compensation and so if you pay attention to politicians these days
there's a lot of talk about you know billionaires and they demonize capitalism
as though capitalism is a bad thing absolutely nothing wrong with capitalism as a matter of fact
how does this country become what it is the free enterprise system the free enterprise system is
the engine for entrepreneurs and that's what makes America so amazing the problem though
is when people are only driven by financial compensation then we get these greedy entrepreneurs
that don't care about what they're doing to the planet they don't care care about how they're
really serving their customers they only care about the bottom line so what we have to do is have a
shift and that shift is from the financial compensation model to the spiritual compensation model and
trust me it's already happening have you heard the term of heart centered businesses
yes yes so there are more and more heart centered businesses more what people call
social entrepreneurs social entrepreneurs create businesses with the intention
of making the world a better place so they put purpose over profit
okay once again absolutely nothing wrong with making money absolutely nothing wrong with making
you billions of dollars one of my goals one of my dreams is to become a billionaire but I define
a billionaire as someone who positively impacts the lives of one billion people now rest assured
if I can positively impact the lives of a billion people my bottom line will show that
I will be able to say I'm a billionaire but it's all about spiritual compensation first I know
that I'm fulfilling a divine purpose with my business and I'm drilling by making a different
versus just making a profit yes indeed and that's the reason why I do this show
this show makes me feel like the way I felt when I played basketball you know coming up as a kid
like the energy is there and so basically I don't even know how I created it but I celebrated a
year anniversary in February I give emails from all over the world Switzerland Ireland Iceland
I mean you name it and it's like wow and even in Canada someone reached out to BBS radio they had
a person that was incarcerated that heard it and they were like thumbs up please keep keep keep
the show going so I mean it's incredible where you can go with something like this and so what I'm
doing is I transferred that same energy that I used to express in basketball into learning and
teaching and having fun with it I mean it's amazing
and that's when you're on purpose see because what most people don't really understand is what
they love to do very few people can tell you what they love to do right a lot of people might say
you know I love music or I love long walks on the beach and that's fine and dandy but the real
question is how do you know when you're doing what you love to do and I'm going to give you
three things to know these three ways to know when you're doing what you love okay number one
when you're doing what you love you do it without the thought of compensation
now that doesn't mean you can't get paid to do it but that means you love it so much it's even
if you didn't get paid you would still do it okay that's number one number two when you're
doing what you love time literally disappears when you're doing what you love for example as a
writer I can see that my computer for eight hours and I swear to you it feels like 10 minutes
time just goes away right so that's number two number three when you're doing what you love
you want to share it with others so there's something in us inherent in us as human being that
what we give we get and so when I share my knowledge do my podcast or speaking engaged
through a book and it supports someone helps someone change their lives and they feel good
guess whatever I feel good so when you do it when you do what you love you look yeah you want to
share with others so it's an amazing it's an energetic thing you do it for the feeling
yes wow if that if that divine energy that creates world it's loud and so when we tap into that
miracle happens wow talk to us about creativity innovation and visionary leadership
so it is my belief that creativity has absolutely nothing to do with your brain
creativity comes from divine intelligence so if you've ever listened to someone sing a song
right and they pour their heart out in a song and it touches you it came from that song came from
an experience it came from a feeling that they had and when they sing it you get that same feeling
okay so that creativity is as human beings we are born to create
divine intelligence only does one thing well two things it loves but what is love love is creation
so creativity is simply the expression of your divine self it comes from your soul
um I never went to college to learn how to write books I never knew I could be a writer
until I started writing and I realized wow this is kind of easy this this is something that a gift
for me and so I've written a book a year for the past six years and I'm currently writing three new
books well see that creativity comes from something that I'm connected to and so when I'm writing
it's like I'm not writing I'm simply taking dictation and so that creativity is really the source
divine intelligence channeling through me so it's like this this energy that just kind of moves
through me this information this wisdom this knowledge this sort of course to me so as some
people would say I'm just an instrument that God is using to manifest in this reality
so everyone listening to this right now has access to creativity it is their responsibility
to tap into it and to express it nicely stated
