My name is Lewis Howes. Thanks so much for being here. I want to remind you about the summit of greatness, our annual conference happening this September in Los Angeles with David Goggins, Doctor Joe Dispenza and many more incredible speakers and performers. There will be so many live attendees there that you can meet with, you can network with, and you can help transform your life. I can't wait to see you at the summit of greatness here in Los Angeles.

Welcome, everyone. I am very excited about this masterclass on the five practices to create more abundance in your life. And we've got people from all over the world watching, so we're going to spend the next 60 to 70 minutes diving in deep on the five practices to really manifest abundance better in your life. And I know there's a lot of people who are struggling right now who are feeling blocked, who are feeling emotionally in a place of scarcity, who are feeling frustrated, who are feeling a of emotions that are holding them back from ultimate joy, ultimate abundance, ultimate peace and harmony. The greatness team and I have put together this masterclass with you and we've had the fortune over the last eleven and a half years to interview some of the top global dominant athletes in the world, some of the top olympians in the world, some of the top neuroscientists, doctors, billionaires, thought leaders, therapists, New York Times, bestselling authors, artists, singers, musicians, and really getting inside their mind and in their heart about what helps them create abundance in their life.

And we're going to walk through these five practices that we've found over the last eleven and a half years from the top leaders in the world on how you can simply do this today and every day moving forward. So if you're excited about this, leave a yes, we've got a lot of content to get through. But here's what I when I asked you guys earlier, I asked each one of you in the chat to share your biggest blocks to success. And these were some of the responses that I saw. Fear of failing.

Just leave in the number. In a chat in the number. Which one resonates most with you right now? Fear of failure. Procrastination.

Some type of limiting belief. You're overthinking or you've got anxiety and you're not sure where to go because of too much anxiety. Relationship challenges are one of the blocks to your success. Health challenges, money challenge. You feel like you've got no energy.

You feel like you're struggling every day just to get out of bed. You're exhausted you feel like an imposter or you just lack the motivation. Maybe you're clear on what you want, but you just lack the motivation. And these are just some of the blocks that you shared with me that I'm hearing around the world that people are struggling with right now. So we want to go over how to create these practices with yourself.

But I'm assuming there's thousands of people who registered for this who have no clue who I am. And in less than 60 seconds, I want to share with you a little bit about me on how I've created abundance in many different areas in my life. Now, I am an imperfect human being. I've been flawed my whole life and I'm going to make mistakes and be flawed the rest of my life. But I have learned how to apply the strategy of manifestation and abundance in pretty much every area of my life now.

There's always new levels to mastering it. There's always new levels of expansion and abundance. But my dream and goal as a kid growing up was to be an all american athlete. This is me. I played professional football in the Arena Football League in America.

I was an all american football player and I was able to manifest that dream. I was also a two sport All American and the decathlon. The Olympics are happening right now and the decathlon was one of my favorite sports growing up to watch. And so I had a dream and a vision that I wanted to be an all american athlete. This was me at the national championships, qualifying and becoming an all American.

I also had a dream of continuing my sports journey after getting injured playing football. And I played with the USA handball team for almost a decade in the pursuit of representing my country and playing in the national competitions with USA Handball. And it's been an amazing experience to wear USA across my chest and visualize it and go after it and create it for myself. Also in the business, in the financial space, I've been blessed where I had no clue how to make a dollar. When I was 24, 25 years old, I was struggling.

I was trying to figure out what I'm going to do with this next transition in my life after sports was done for me. And I've gone on to build an eight figure business, be on the COVID of Success magazine, Entrepreneur magazine, many other magazines. Currently right now, today, our podcast, the School of Greatness, is number ten globally on all of Apple podcast charts, number ten podcast in the world and number one podcast in health and fitness. You can see on these screenshots we just took today. So again, we've created one of the top podcasts in the world, impacting lives, being of service, helping individuals with free content to serve humanity, to improve the quality of their life.

That's been a vision of mine. We've been consistent every single week. We've created content for eleven and a half years. I've written multiple books. My first book on the left here, linked working was not a shakespearean work of art.

I look back on that and I think about how bad of a writer I was, how I didn't know how to do anything, how I was just fumbling my way through the process of writing my first book. But we've written multiple New York Times best selling books since then. And the recent one, the greatness mindset, unlock the power of your mind. Many of you might have this. I'm going to share with you an exercise today in this book that will help you get clear on manifesting abundance in your life.

We've got over 20 million followers on social media and so many other things that I'm grateful for in the business space that I've created, manifested and attracted in my life through a set of these five key practices that I'm going to share with you all in a moment in my relationships. I don't know if anyone has ever struggled in relationships like me. I think I had 20 years of heartbreak, failure, emotional rollercoaster issues, stress, tears and challenging breakups and challenging relationships. And I take full responsibility for all that because I attracted and manifested that. And it wasn't until I started to apply the lessons I'm about to share with you today.

These five key practices where I learned how to shift attracting stress and chaos and into attracting peace, harmony and love. And it's been one of the greatest feelings I have ever had in my life when I learned how to do this simple thing. Now, the simple thing took years of hard work, but it's a simple strategy that I want you to implement as well. So if you've struggled in relationships like I did for 20 years and you want peace and harmony, you want to attract that love that makes you feel safe, man, it is an incredible feeling and you deserve to have it, but you've got to be willing to do the work. In fact, I got engaged recently and I got engaged on stage at my live conference that we do every single year called the summit of greatness.

Some of you might have been there to watch it. If you saw this live, leave a yes below. If you saw me propose live to Martha, my fiance. It was a beautiful experience and yes, I manifested it. I manifested it and I visualized it.

You know, part of the process to creating abundance in your life and manifesting abundance is visualizing. So watch this, guys. Before, an hour before, I kid you not, an hour before, I am going through and visualizing the process. This is with my best friend and Coo of the company, Matt. And I said, how am I going to do this?

I'm nervous, I'm stressed out, I'm anxious. I'm not sure, what if I mess up? What if I fall? You know, what if I can't get the word words out? And I was literally practicing backstage before this moment.

And that's part of the process. You've got to be willing to visualize. You've got to be willing to create that dream and goal in your mind. You've got to be willing to see in your mind what you want to create for the future. And that is one of the keys to really actualizing and visualizing success.

So again, if you were there, go ahead and type that in so I can see who was there because it was a powerful moment for me. And we have a big event with Doctor Joe Dispenza, with David Goggins, with some other massive speakers that we haven't announced yet. Munema Mazari, also happening in LA in one month. And I can't wait to see you there. So many people have already come to this event.

But if you feel stuck, if you feel like you're not clear that you want to manifest and create more in your life, then I want to recommend you to get a ticket or get one for you and a friend to really transform your life@summitofgreatness.com. dot. You can check that out and learn more about it there. But before we get into these five practices. So that was just kind of sharing with you.

If you've never heard about me before, if someone recommended you this, this video, this, this piece of content or this masterclass and you've never heard about me before, that's just me sharing a little bit more about my journey and how I was able to manifest these different areas in my life. And again, it hasn't been perfect. It's been hard work. It's been a challenge. There's been a lot of sad moments.

There's been a lot of ups and downs. I've been broke before, I've been in debt before, I've been injured and laying on my sister's couch for six months before. I haven't always been the healthiest. I've been in challenging relationships I've had hard times. Those experiences were painful, but that pain created wisdom.

And when I started to integrate the wisdom, I was able to create more freedom in my life. And I want to give you these practices that will support you in not having to experience as much pain as I've experienced, but to hopefully fast track the process for yourself, for manifesting abundance in your life and just having these simple principles. And I'm about to share the first principle here in a second, so I want you to. We're going to have some exercises for you. So I want you to get out a piece of paper and write some of these things down for yourself so you can reflect and take action in your life today.

Feel free to type in the chat as well if you want to, as we're going along here. But I want this to be a working experience for you, to really reflect on what's working in your life, what you want to create in your life, and what's needed from you, what's required, what's demanded from you to get to that next place in your life, the desired result of the abundance that you want. So before I jump into step one, I want to share a story that transformed my thinking in my life. This story is something that I think about probably once every week or so when I'm faced with a challenge, or I feel like I'm blocked, or I feel like something is stuck in my life. If I'm having a tough decision, I'm not clear on where to go.

I reflect back to this story, and it's from a book called you squared. We had the author on. His name is Price Pritchett, and this book has radically changed the way I think, and it supported me in so many ways. And I just want to share the opening story for you. I'm going to read this really quickly for you, but I want you to take this in.

I want you to really listen. If you only listen to one thing today, and you only consume one thing today, I want you to reflect on this story. Reflect on this story and eliminate all other distractions. You have turn off notifications. Get out of every other browser and app on your phone or wherever you're listening or watching to this and pay close attention to this story.

This story could transform the trajectory of your life if you allow it. And if you're here, it means in some way you feel stuck in some area of your life, you feel stuck, blocked, or like something's not working and you want to attract and manifest faster. Something and this story could support you in making it more freeing in the process. So here's the story. This is from Price Pritchett's book u squared.

I'm just going to read. It's the intro story. It'll take a few moments. I'm sitting in a quiet room in the Microsoft Inn, he says, a peaceful little place hidden back among the pine trees, about an hour out of Toronto. It's just past noon, late July, and I'm listening to the desperate sounds of a life or death struggle going on.

A few feet away, there's a small fly burning out the last of its short life's energy in a futile attempt to fly through the glass of a windowpane. The whining wings tell a poignant story of the fly's strategy. Try harder. Now, before I continue on the story, can any of you picture this in your mind? In your house, at an office space, at a restaurant, where you see a fly beating itself against a window, trying to escape, it sees in the distance there's something out there, and it just keeps pounding against it.

So imagine that in your mind. But it's not working, he says. The frenzied effort offers no hope for survival. Ironically, the struggle is part of the trap. The struggle is part of the trap.

I want you to write that down. Imprint that in your heart and in your mind. The struggle is part of the trap. How does that impact and resonate in your life? The struggle is part of the trap.

It is impossible for the fly to try hard enough to succeed at breaking through the glass. It's impossible. No matter how hard he tries, he cannot fly through the window. Nevertheless, the little insect has staked its life on reaching its goal through raw effort and determination. Effort and determination alone.

The fly is doomed. It will die there on the windowsill across the room. Ten steps away, the door is open. Ten steps away, the door is open. 10 seconds of flying time and this small creature could reach the outside world it seeks.

With only a fraction of the effort now being wasted, it could be free of this self imposed trap. The breakthrough possibility is there. It would be so easy. Why doesn't the fly try another approach, something dramatically different? How did it get so locked in the idea that this particular route and determined effort offer the most promise for success?

What logic is there in continuing until death to seek a breakthrough with more of the same? No doubt this approach makes sense to the fly. Regrettably, it's an idea that will kill. Trying harder isn't necessarily the solution to achieving more. I want you to really listen to this trying harder isn't necessarily the solution to achieving more.

It may not offer any real promise for getting what you want out of life. Sometimes, in fact, it's a big part of the problem. If you stake your hopes for a breakthrough on trying harder than ever, you may kill your chances for success. I love this story and I want you to imagine in your life right now, think of where you're experiencing the most pain, frustration, and where you're feeling a block in your life. A relationship.

It could be a family relationship or intimate relationship or career relationship. It could be you're trying to get a deal done. It's not working. It could be trying to grow your business. You're struggling, you're failing.

It could be your health. You've tried every diet. It's not working. You're gaining weight. It could be your money.

You just keep going in more and more debt. Whatever it is. Think of that moment in your life right now where you feel like you're trying harder and it only gets worse. And it almost feels like you're dying in your attempt, no matter how much hard work and effort and determination you put towards this effort. But if you could just turn around and do something that is.

That doesn't seem like it's a possibility. Like maybe it's a completely different approach to what you've been doing. Maybe it's not in like a normal way of thinking. Maybe it's outside of the box. So far, it just makes no sense.

Or it's so risky that, man, if you did this, who knows what would happen? But doing it and making that shift and taking that ten second fly across the room, you open into a door of freedom for yourself. And everything starts to come in abundance, in waves. And you attract a different way of living because you look at things differently. This story of the fly, when I read this, when I had price put you on, maybe some of you saw this interview, really gave me a new way of looking at things.

And almost every time I feel a sense of a block or a frustration or something's not working, and, man, we're putting a lot of effort into this thing, and everyone else is doing the same way, and they're succeeding. But why aren't we succeeding? It's almost like we have to do the complete opposite. And every time I do the complete opposite, it feels really scary. It feels like, ugh, but that's not the way everyone else does it.

Uh, well, I've never tried this before. So what if I fail? Oh, man, what if people make fun of me? Oh man, this just doesn't feel good. But every time I've done that, it's like this freeing experience that creates and unlocks a new window of possibility.

Literally a window opens as opposed to slamming into a glass window until you die. So I want you to imagine that in your life, where are you? The fly in your life that just keeps beating a window, trying to escape into the open air, but you're never going to break through and you just have to turn around and you might have to turn around a few times and try something different a few times until you figure it out. But that's what I want you to think about, getting to where you want to be. The next level of abundance will not happen by doing the same and working harder.

Yes, hard work and determination and consistency are key. I've been doing my podcast every single week for eleven and a half years. That is consistency. That's determination, that's hard work. That's getting up when I'm tired, that's doing things when I don't want to do things.

That's dealing with problems and breakdowns and people and messes. It's consistently showing up as part of it. But we haven't done the same thing consistently. We've constantly innovated and updated. And when things are struggling, we have to try new things.

We have to adapt, we have to take risks, we have to invest in new strategies. We have to try something new. What worked ten years ago, five years ago, one year ago may not work today. And you've got to be willing to see that. And I want to share these five principles with you as that was just setting the stage, that was setting the stage for you to see where in your life you might be struggling.

And the first key to unlocking abundance and manifesting more in your life is first to go within. Most people are not going within and become aware of your patterns and anxieties, especially when your nervous system gets triggered. So I want you to think about this. I want you to think about the emotions that block your abundance. I want you to think about the emotions that block your abundance.

And when I think about these emotions, I want to share five key emotions that are blocking you. The first one is the emotion of fear. Most of you are living in fear and this fear is stressing you out. This fear is causing you to cripple yourself. It's causing you to not try something new.

The first emotion that most people live in is fear. The second emotion is anger. Anger. Oh man, I'm so angry at this right now, this, what this person did to me, I'm so angry that I tried this thing and people made fun of me. I'm so angry that I didn't get chosen.

I'm so angry that, you know, I got fired from the job I was in. I got so angry that this person stole money from me. I'm so angry that the person cut me off in the street. Whatever it is, anger is an emotion that blocks your abundance. Another emotion, sadness.

When we live in this emotion of sadness, and we're consistently living in it, it's so hard to see possibilities. It's so hard to create these other four principles that we're going to be talking about, these are the practices. So we're holding on to the emotion. I'm not saying you shouldn't feel these emotions. If you saw inside out the movie.

Every emotion has a purpose. Every emotion has a positive side effect. So sadness allows your body to feel what it truly feels, what it's experiencing in the moment. You don't want to block this emotion either, but you don't want to stay in this emotion. The sadness is something.

When people stay stuck in sadness, it blocks their abundance. The next one, and this is a big one. This is a big one. I wrote a whole book about this. Self doubt and judgment.

Self doubt and judgment. If you are living in self doubt, if you are saying, I doubt me, what you're saying is, I doubt my creator. If you are saying I doubt myself, you're saying, I don't believe in you. I don't believe in you. For all your gifts and your possibilities, I don't believe in the universe.

Whatever it is you believe in, you're doubting your creator. Doubting yourself is doubting your creator. And when you put doubtful energy on the creator of the universe and the creator of you, the energy of you, why would you create abundance? Why would you attract more good things in your life? When you're saying, I am doubtful that I'm deserving of these things, why would these things come to you?

You're blocking them. You are rejecting them. It's no one else's fault. You've got to get out of your own way. Self judgment and self doubt.

How many of you feel a sense of constant self judgment? You look in the mirror and you're like, oh, man, my nose. Or, I mean, I've got a. I've got a red spot right here. Oh, man, I've got a red spot.

I've got a pimple. I've got a blemish. I've got whatever. Like, oh, man, I'm, I'm gaining some weight. I've got this.

I wish I was prettier. I wish I was fitter. I wish I was. How many of you are judging yourselves on a constant basis, you know, looking at yourself and saying, how can I improve? Accepting where I'm at and how can I improve is a positive way of judging yourself, if you want to look at it that way.

But just judging and making yourself wrong blocks your abundance. It blocks it. And the final emotion, the negative emotion that's really blocking you is a big one. Frustration and impatience. How many of you want results yesterday?

How many of you are like me? They're like, let's get this done last month. Why didn't we finish this thing yesterday? I want something done. I want it done this morning.

I want to be faster, I want to be bigger, stronger. I want to lose the weight now, you know, I want to make money now. I don't want to wait years for my money to compound interest. I want it to get now. I just want to be rich now.

I want to be healthy now. I want to find the love of my life now without having to go through any of the process. Just give it to me now. Even when I'm flawed and messed up and judging myself and don't think I'm worthy and don't think I'm deserving. And I living in fear, sadness and anger and I'm impatient, just give it to me now.

Give it to me now. Like a little child whining and complaining, I want it now. I want it now. Daddy, what is that? From Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory.

I want it now. That energy is a, is a needy, ungrateful energy. And it's an energy that is saying, I'm impatient with improving myself, with healing myself, with serving others, using myself in the service of others, saying, I just want what I want now without adding any value to the world right now. And that is a needy, selfish way to go about it. Now, listen, guys, all these emotions, all these negative emotions, I've had them all at different parts of my life.

I still have them all sometimes today. And it's a constant reframe. When I feel it, I'm like, okay, I know this is not going to help me, so let me feel this for a few moments, for a few minutes, maybe even for an hour of sadness or something, and then let me get back into my vision. So I want you guys to be thinking about these emotions that are blocking your abundance when you're staying in these emotions consistently, you will not be able to really create more abundance in your life. Does that make sense?

And when you're staying in those emotions, you're living in a state of scarcity, a state of lack. Here on the left of this image, you're living in a, in a desert and you're hoping for abundance. You're hoping. When you've created an environment of scarcity, you've created an environment of just rubble, dirt, dust. You don't have fertile land to grow a rich environment in.

And so you've got to fertilize your emotions. You've got to fertilize your thoughts. You got to harmonize your thoughts and your emotions with this energy and these emotions. You've got to bring it all together. And this is, this is hard work to do.

When you feel like, I just am struggling in every area of my life, this is hard to do when you're in that state. Believe me, I know. It took me a good year or two to get in the consistency of removing the negative emotions into the five emotions that will create abundance. And I'm going to talk about those in just a few minutes. But I want to share this.

I want to share this quote here in a second. Before I share the quote, I want you to reflect on this. Whether you share it in the chat, whether you write it down on your journal or a piece of paper, right now, I want you to answer these questions for yourself. What triggers you the most in your life? What are the areas that trigger you the most in your life?

Just go ahead and write that down in the chat or on your, your journal on a piece of paper. What have you been avoiding within yourself? What have you been avoiding within yourself? And how can you start to bring love and acceptance to that part of yourself? I love this quote from Munib and Mazari who says, when you accept yourself and the way you are, the world recognizes you.

Now, this doesn't mean you accept yourself for being lazy. You accept yourself for being negative. You accept yourself for, you know, going broke and going in debt. And you just say, I'm going to accept myself for doing all these negative acts and negative habits and negative emotions consistently. But you accept who you are, all of your flaws, all your personality quirks, all your uniqueness.

You accept you, the world will start to recognize you. But if you don't accept you, how do you expect someone else to accept you if you can't even accept yourself? Muneba Mazari is one of our featured speakers at the summit of greatness this year. Again, if you don't have your tickets yet, I recommend going to someoneofgreatness.com and getting your tickets because she had one of the most viral speeches. I think it got close to 30 million views online a few years ago.

And it's incredible what she's overcome from tragedy into triumph. But I want you guys to make sure you check this out. And again, if you are looking for more inspiration in your life, if you're looking for a community, if you're looking for that spark to create more abundance, the summit of greatness is that experience. It is that fertile environment that will enrich your life and help you get clarity on how to create that abundance in your life. Again, you can go to lewishouse.com 2024 and check out the tickets there.

Now I had to learn how to stop running away from myself and, and truly accept myself and start to heal before I could create harmonious abundance for many years. If I go back to a lot of those slides, early on, you know, the sports dreams, the business goals early on, I was running away from a part of me that I did not like. I was chasing success. I was chasing the need to be, to look good, to be celebrated, to prove to my old self that I could do something great and I was able to succeed. But I wasn't able to create abundance.

And no amount of success filled me up. In fact, it made me feel more empty and I felt like I needed to create more and achieve more in order to feel better. But it never worked. I don't know if any of you can relate to this, that the more you chase something by running away from something you're afraid of, it's just going to create more stress. But when I started to do the work, accept myself and heal, which was a journey and still is a journey, then I was able to create harmonious abundance.

And harmonious abundance is different than success. Success does not equal harmonious abundance. You can write a New York Times bestselling book and be miserable. I have. I have many friends that I know who've written New York Times bestselling books.

I have another friend who's got a company he sold for hundreds of millions of dollars. He's successful, but he was not happy. He's struggling emotionally inside. Success doesn't automatically equal harmonious abundance. Again, I pursued goals for years and you can create success, but it doesn't mean you have abundance and it doesn't mean you have harmony at the center of the success.

And I want you to have it all. I want you to have it all on every level. And I'm not saying I have it all and I don't have it all figured out, but I've definitely been studying this for a long time and I've created a sense of peace that I've never had before. And there's going to be stuff I'm going to need to continue to learn and grow into. Obviously, I'm a human being and there's new levels to experiencing in life.

But the more I practice this and the more I have accountability and the more I have coaching and the more I show up to fertile experiences like the summit of greatness where you're surrounded by an energy of greatness, you're surrounded by an energy of abundance. You're surrounded by thinking and feelings that create fertile ground for you to grow, for you to thrive, for you to get clear, for you to take action on the fears that you're stressed out about. That's what I continue to do on a consistent basis. I'm interviewing some of the greatest minds in the world on a daily basis. And I'm going to experiences and events that are fertile ground for greatness and abundance.

Success does not equal harmonious abundance. That's the first thing is to go within. Go within. A lot of us are just stressed and we're looking on the outside and saying, I want that, what's wrong? But I don't have it.

You've got to go within first and address those things that we talked about. The second thing is ask yourself what do your heart and your soul really want from a calm and centered place within yourself? This is number two. What do your heart and soul really want from a calm and centered place within yourself? Are your desires coming from ego and from a place of fear?

Or from your heart and from a place of love? And again, I'm guilty here. For most of my life it was coming from fear and ego and just some of these, some of these thoughts that I had. Let me know if this resonates with you. I'm going to read some of these off creating from a place of fear and ego.

Let me know if this speaks to you. I created from a place of not feeling loved most of my life. I created from a place of feeling like I wasn't good enough. I created from a place of needing to prove people wrong. Specifically kids from elementary school and middle school that I don't talk to and don't see anymore.

Right? I did that for years. Let me prove these kids wrong about me. Who made fun of me in recess and let me use that as my main motivation to go achieve success and prove them wrong. I need to be right and to make others wrong.

I need to look good and make others look bad. I need to win at all costs. Creating from a place of not wanting to be rejected. Creating from ego and fear is reactionary. It's not creating from vision, from values, from.

From a place of love. And you want to be thinking to yourself, are your desires coming from a place of your ego, in a place of fear, or from your heart, in a place of love? And a lot of us wear these different masks. I wrote an entire book called the Mask of Masculinity, which talks about the masks specifically that men like to wear. In general, women wear their own masks, but these masks that we put on, we have them for specific intention.

It's to try to protect us. It's to try to help us, try to make sure we don't get hurt. But when we wear these masks continuously, we block our true essence of ourself, which is our heart. When you take off the mask, you open up your soul. Now, you've got to learn how to create boundaries and make sure you create different processes in your life so you don't give your heart freely to everyone and let people walk all over you.

That is not good either. You've got to learn to eliminate the people pleaser in yourself and say no, and create boundaries. But you can still do it from a place of love. You can still open your soul and your heart and create from a place of love. It's one of the most challenging things I've had to learn how to do, how to say no to people, how to, you know, as a recovering people pleaser man, that has blocked my peace, harmony, and abundance more than anything.

Probably wanted to please everyone. And I've had to learn the hard way in the last few years on how to unwind and rewire my brain and my heart, to love myself first, to take care of me first, before trying to please everyone else and leaving me, alas. Following your heart's desire, Oprah says, will lead you in the direction your spirit wants to go. Following your heart's desire will lead you in the direction your spirit wants to go. And a lot of you struggle with figuring out, well, Louis, I don't know how to get clear on my vision.

You know, I'm not clear. I want. I have all these things that I want, but I'm not sure which one to go after or I have no clue what I want in my life or what I'm supposed to do. And again, part of this key practice is getting clear on your vision. Getting clear on your vision right here.

If you are not clear on your vision, if you don't have an aim, a direction, a path, a place you're heading towards, then you're going to feel blocked. You're going to feel stuck. You're going to feel like man. Why is everything not going in my favor? Why does it look easy for everyone else?

A mission. I'm going to share how I got clear on my mission. A mission calls upon the deeper parts of our souls and moves us to attempt something greater than ourselves. That is a mission. A mission calls upon the deeper parts of our souls and moves us to attempt something greater than ourselves.

And no one can choose your meaningful mission for you. I wrote an entire book about how to get clear on your meaningful mission. It's called the greatness mindset. I'm going to share a quick practice in here in this book. Again, for any mission to remain meaningful to you, it must evolve over time and grow and change as you grow.

And there's really three things you want to be thinking about when getting clear on your mission. I'm going to share with you my mission. That's literally in my book. I have it highlighted, what my mission is. It's clear in one sentence.

I know what it is. It's to serve 100 million lives weekly by helping them improve the quality of their lives and overcome the things that hold them back. That is my north star. That is my mission. That's why I wake up.

That's what I do. To serve people. That's what we do with team greatness. We're here to make an impact, make a difference in people's lives. And our goal is to reach 100 million lives weekly.

If we reach one person a week, it's still a worthwhile pursuit. If we create this right now and it helps one person, it's still worth it. Our goal is to reach millions and to serve a lot of people and to maximize our talents. But that's what we're here to do on team greatness is to figure out how can we help improve the quality of people's lives by helping them overcome the things that hold them back. And that's one of the reasons why we're doing this masterclass right now, is to give you the tools, to give you the inspiration, the strategies, the practices, and to connect you to something bigger inside of yourself, to connect you, to open your heart and drop down, the ego and the fear start getting clearer.

But you got to create that fertile ground within yourself. You've got to create fertile emotions, fertile thoughts, so that you can start taking the actions that support a space of abundance. An enriched environment, not a scarce environment that's holding on to these emotions that we talked about over here, these negative emotions, if those are running in your mind and connecting in your heart on a consistent basis for hours throughout the day, why would you have an abundant, enriched environment in your life? You wouldn't because you're blocking it. No one else is blocking it.

You are blocking it. You are the one holding you back in a lot of this process. Yes, there might be circumstances where your parents don't want you to do certain things, where you're in an environment that doesn't allow you to thrive as much, where you're struggling, where you've got to do other things, you've got to overcome other obstacles. But I'm telling you, you are blocking your abundance more than anyone else, more than likely, depending on what season of life you're in. A mission calls upon the deeper parts of our souls, not our ego, not our analytical thinking, not this is what my parents want me to do.

This is what my partner wants me to do. They'll like me better if I do what they want me to do. Screw that. What does your soul want you to do? That's why you're blocked in your abundance right now.

And there's three things you want to be thinking about. Your passion, your power, and the problem you want to solve. The passion of the things that lights you up, the things that inspire you, that awakens inside of you think that you're like, man, I feel called to do this. I feel so excited about this. It's something that draws you to it, that lights you up.

The power is not just the thing that you're excited about, your passion, it's the thing where's my talents lie? Where am I skilled at and where can I develop more skills that also around the things that light me up? And the problem is, what is the problem that you want to solve? For me, it's to help people overcome the challenges in their life that hold them back. That's the problem I'm solving in my mission.

So you want to be thinking about those three p's, your passion, your power, and the problem you want to solve. And I love this. I'm reading this from the book, this on page 45. In short, you can become the hero of your own story. And that's what this life is all about.

You becoming the hero of your own story, not you staying stuck, not you staying scarce, not you living in fear, not you being stressed out all day, but you becoming the hero of your own story. And we had my friend Donald Miller on the show, who is the author of a book called hero on a mission. And I want you to be this hero on a mission right now. And he described it to me in this way. He said, every good story requires a problem and a hero willing to solve it.

Otherwise, there is no story. And you find your meaningful mission when you find a problem that needs to be solved in the world. And right now, if you feel stuck, man, this is your journey. This is your hero's journey. You get to be the hero of your own story.

You found the problem. Now you've get to, you got to become the hero. You got to tell the story in real time of how you're going to overcome this by acting in accordance with your heart and your soul. That may sound a little woo woo or something of like, why is he talking about your heart and soul? Let me just think my way through this process.

Let me just analyze with my ego. Let me just critically judge and assess everything in the world and just force it and just will it to happen. Sure, you could do that. I'm not, it's not going to create harmony and abundance and peace in your life. But you can analyze, you can overthink, you can over ego and out ego people, and you can still create success.

But like we said before, success does not equal harmonious abundance, does it? Does not. And they don't want you to know that. They want you to stay stuck and think of just be in your ego. Talk about gossip all day, think about the problems of the world and just talk about them.

Don't do anything to be in service. Just make people wrong, judge, complain at people, argue, dramatize everything. That's what they want you to know. They don't want you to know this, but we do here at the school of greatness. That's why you're here.

And that's what we're here to do, is to be of service to you. Let's go. I'm excited about this, guys. If you don't know about creating a vision for your life, it lights you up. It gives you so much energy when you have a clear vision.

And again, if you feel stuck and you want fertile ground, if you want to be in a space that man unlocks your energy and supports you where you're sitting around thousands of people that are all thinking and feeling the same thing, that you want to break through, that you want to create abundance and you want to hear from some of the top speakers in the world. I don't think you're ever going to get a chance to see Doctor Joe Dispenza and David Goggins in the same place. We've got some amazing performers, speakers and people coming to the summit of greatness. You've got to get your tickets and be there, guys. It's in less than a month and a half away.

This is the fertile ground for you to support yourself and get to the next level. Get your tickets, come to a live experience and start unlocking the abundance for yourself again. I want to see you there. It will be a game changer and I really hope you guys can make it. Point number three for unlocking abundance in your life.

And let me know in the comments if this is supporting you so far, if you're feeling inspired, if you're feeling like it's giving you a framework, a starting framework, we're only halfway complete with these points, but I want to make sure that this is supporting your process of unlocking abundance. And this is something we've been studying for a long time. We've had some of the top people on. And I'm trying to simplify the things that I've heard from all these individuals, neuroscientists, doctors, therapists, world champions, billionaires, people in long term healthy relationships, on how to create harmonious abundance. Because success does not equal harmonious abundance.

And they don't want you to know that. They want you to stay stuck. They want you to stay weak. They want to have control over you. They want to control your mind.

And I don't want you to experience that. This is a place for you to free your mind and open your heart. And if you're excited about that, if you're excited to live a new type of existence, then keep watching, because this is going to be big.

Number three is to get clear on your fears. A lot of you have fears, but you're not really sure what those are. So I want you to get clear on your fears. Because when you get clear on your fears, the fears that are holding you back the most, when you get clear on your fears, then you have a roadmap of what to conquer, what to overcome, what to lean into. Because the only way to abundance is going through your fears.

Let me say that again. The only way to harmonious abundance is going through your fears, not running from them, not trying to sweep them under the rug, not trying to act like they're not there and say, ah, nothing's wrong with me, not trying to put them in the closet, not trying to discount that you have them, but to fully acknowledge, man, I'm a scared little boy when it comes to public speaking, when it comes to salsa dancing, when it comes to singing in public, when it comes to whatever it is, whatever your fears are, I'm sharing what my fears were. Public speaking. I could not stand in front of a group of three people without stuttering and stumbling. And so what did I do?

I went all in. I went into toastmasters every single week, which is a public speaking course, and I failed miserably. I embarrassed myself with so much extreme humiliation, sweating, coming out of my pits profusely every time, preparing for it, dreading getting up every single week and speaking in front of a group of people that were gonna criticize me and give me feedback. But doing that every week for a year is what set me free. And now I get paid, multiple six figures to speak for an hour in front of an audience.

And that would not have been possible. My dreams, my abundance, my possibilities would not have been possible had I not gone all in on the fear. So you need to think about what are the fears that hold you back the most? Because you are going to need to go all in on your fears until the fear disappears. Feel free to write that down.

Take a screenshot. Share this you're going to need to go all in on your fear until the fear disappears.

And trust me, I wish I didn't have to go through my fears and I still have fears that I'm getting go through. I wish I didn't have to go through these things. I wish I didn't have to embarrass myself every week for a year speaking in front of people that were way better than me, where I looked like the worst and my ego had to die every week. Essentially. I wish I didn't have to deal with that when I wanted to go salsa dancing and learn how to salsa dance.

I wish I wasn't the tallest white boy in every salsa club, fumbling and knocking girls over and stepping on girls feet and just acting like a big goofball because I had no clue what I was doing to left feet. I wish I didn't have to deal with the embarrassment, the humiliation of making a girl look bad when I was dancing with them. I wish. I mean, I didn't want to experience that. Who wants to experience embarrassment, humiliation, fear, sadness?

But you've got to go all in on your fears until the fear disappears. Otherwise, you will not be the hero of your story. You will not be the hero of your story again. Every good story requires a problem and a hero willing to solve it. Otherwise, there is no story.

And these fears are the obstacles in your way that you need to lean into whatever it is, whether it's having difficult conversations, whether it's ending a relationship that you've been afraid to end for years, but you know, you need to. But you don't want to hurt someone because you don't want to, you know, make someone feel bad. Whether it's addressing something that you need to address that you've been afraid of, whether it's having that tough conversation with that family member, but you're afraid you're going to get outed from the family, whether it's pursuing the goal that you really want to pursue, whether it's overcoming something that you're afraid of. Whatever it is, be willing to risk letting your ego be humiliated. Let your ego die every single day in the process of pursuing your fears.

Now, I don't want you to die physically, but your ego needs to die, because if you want to create from a place of love and in your heart and your soul, you've got to create from a space of letting go of the fear. And when you can lean into the fears and actually make the fears a superpower, man, you unlock even greater abundance. Things just come to you because now you're adding your personality with overcoming the fears, and you're putting that together and boom, you are. There is no more. There's no more this.

Remember this. Remember this emotion in the beginning. There's no more of this. There's no more self doubt and judgment. Self judgment because you've humiliated yourself, whether it's just you to yourself or you in front of other people, which usually it requires you doing some of the fear in front of.

Front of others to realize you're still alive, to realize that you're okay, to realize that you're doing something hard and challenging. And that process should give you confidence. The more I practice public speaking in front of my peers, the more confident I got. I still was never better than them, but I got better for myself, and that gave me confidence. And that's a superpower.

That's a superpower that unlocks abundance and allows you to attract better. It's a superpower that I would have never been able to do this podcast had I not spent a year going all in the fear of public speaking. There's no way I'd be able to be on camera, speak at live events, interview the world's greatest athletes. And again, if you don't know about the school of greatness, if this is your first time hearing about me, we've had the biggest names in the world, guys. We've had the biggest business leaders.

We've had, you know, the biggest sports stars. We had Kobe Bryant, Kevin Hart, Tony Robbins. We've had Novak Djokovic, we've had so many inspiring sports stars and Brene Brown and New York Times bestselling authors. We've had all these leaders in the world. We've had Mike Tyson on a couple of times, all these stars that I would have not been comfortable enough because I would have said, who am I?

Who am I? To as a dyslexic kid who was picked last on the playground, who was in special needs classes all through elementary school, who had a reading tutor all through high school, all the way through my senior year, almost flunked out of English? Who am I? As one of the bottom four grade cards and every time I went through class as long as I was in the bottom four, who am I to sit across the greatest athletes in the world, the greatest thinkers, the greatest writers in the world, the greatest doctors, the greatest therapists, the greatest minds, leaders, the biggest celebrities in the world, the biggest musicians and performers. Who am I?

I'm a kid from Delaware, Ohio, who's dyslexic in learning disability classes all through school, took seven years to graduate college. Who am I? At the bottom of my class to do these things? Who am I? Who has, you know, eight missing teeth and is 6ft four at twelve years old, the tallest by a foot and a half in the class, goofy, gangly.

Who am I to do something meaningful and abundant in this world? Who am I? You know, sexually abused as a kid, struggled through school, parents divorced. Who am I? Who am I to do these things?

Who am I? Why should I pursue this? I have all these problems, all these challenges, all these things holding me back. Who am I? I'm not good enough.

No one loves me. I've been abandoned. I've been abused. I've been brokenhearted. I'm in the bottom of my class.

Who am I? I'm from a small town, I've got no money. I've injured myself. Who am I? I'm not fast enough.

I'm not strong enough. Who am I?

I could sit in that energy consistently and it would only hurt me. But instead I said, no more. No more self doubt, no more judgment. That energy is not good for me. So I need to go all in on my fears until they disappear and become the hero of my own story.

And maybe you're in that place of self doubt and self judgment and comparison with everyone else in the world right now. And I get it. I've been there. I know that feeling. It's suffocating.

It's exhausting. I get it. But now is the time for you to stop living in fear and self doubt and to take a leap of faith emotionally to let your ego die. I'm not talking about put yourself in harm's way physically, but allow your ego to emotionally die into where you are and to where you want to be. So I made a fear list, and I want you to make a fearless within your life.

Again, we have the whole process in the greatness mindset, the whole process of this breaks it down on how to do this as well. But I want you to make a fear list and start attacking those fears, because you will not create harmonious abundance if you're living in fear. So the only way to create that is to embrace and go all in on the fears until the fears disappear. We've got two final points I want to make, and I hope this is helpful. Again, big thank you to team greatness, who helps create this content, who brings this research together, who gives the tools to support you all.

I'm just the. The messenger sharing the message of what my amazing team has been able to create for you guys. So big shout out to team greatness. Number four, protect your energy, man. I don't know.

I feel like some of these things that I share are things that are, like, I've just learned recently in my life in the last six to twelve months or something, of like, really what's allowed me to create more harmonious abundance is by doing these things myself recently in my life. And I don't know if you've ever felt like, man, I've got to protect my peace by protecting my energy and the people around you matter. How many of you can relate to that? That the people around you matter? But I'm going to throw a cliffhanger at you guys.

I want you to think about this. Are there any relationships in your life that feel draining or you feel like you're outgrowing right now? And here's the cliffhanger, including the relationship with yourself. Oh, are there any relationships in your life that feel draining or you feel like you're out growing right now, including the relationship with yourself. You know, it's gonna be interesting, because when you learn to let go of the old part of you that no longer serves you anymore, the people pleaser, the.

The self doubter, the judger, the anger, the person with all these things that you used to hold on to, when you learn to create a boundary with that old self and you create a new version of you in the second moving forward, and you have to keep creating that version of you every second. And if you relapse into the old you, you have to remind yourself and keep creating that new you every second until you become the new you that doesn't hold on to the old you. When you create that boundary. Let's get this. When you create that boundary within yourself, watch out.

Now, when you create that boundary of the old relationship with you, you start to. You start to really outgrow other people in your life, don't you? How many of you that speaks to you? Leave a. Yes.

Leave an. Amen. Leave a. I hear you. Leave a.

Whatever in the chat. When you start to outgrow you, the old you that no longer serves and supports the vision that you have for yourself, the mission that you have, the dreams, the goals, the. The path that you want to go on, you're going to need to let go of certain parts of you. Not all of you, but certain parts of you that no longer serve you. When you do that, you're going to realize some people don't like the new you.

Some people like the people pleaser. Some people like the person that puts themselves down and puts everyone else up. Some people like someone that'll sacrifice himself for anyone at any moment instead of taking care of themselves. People don't like it when you create boundaries. But when you create a boundary with yourself, you start to learn about who's in your circle and who's in your corner.

And there's a difference between people who are in your circle when it's convenient and people who are in your corner when it's not convenient. Let me know if that speaks to you. You get to really know people who are in your circle versus in your corner when you create boundaries with yourself. When you remove the old parts of you by going all in on the fears that hold you back, you separate those old things you say. Thank you for teaching me and trying to protect me all these ways, but I've got me now.

My dreams need a higher version of me. My vision needs a greater version of me. And I've got to let go of the parts of me that were living in self judgment that were living in doubt. I've got to let these things go, but I can't just think them away. I need to act through them.

I need to face those fears consistently until I live and integrate confidence. Because I've overcome. I've become my own hero. No one else has rescued me or saved me. I had to overcome those things.

And when you start to do those things, man, you become bulletproof. And people aren't going to like it. Some people are going to love it, but a lot of people won't like it. And when you step into that, you're going to start to see who's in your corner versus who's in your circle. And again, think about those relationships.

Write them down, think about them, reflect on them, and be willing to start to create boundaries in those relationships. Because when you don't protect your energy, the universe is going to say to you, well, you haven't stewarded what I've given you. Get this. When you don't protect your energy, the universe senses it. It's aware and says, okay, you haven't been a good steward of what is possible for you.

You've allowed these negative emotions, fear, anger, self doubt, to consume you. So why would I give you more? If you can't hold the space and the energy for what you already have, why would I give you more good things if you're already judging yourself, if you're already doubting yourself that you don't deserve it, why would I give it to you? And when you get something that you don't feel you deserve, you self sabotage. Who can speak to that?

Who can resonate with that? If you're given something that you don't feel you're deserving of, you will. You will squander. You will self sabotage. You will blow it away at some point.

Protect your energy, my friends. Protect your energy. The people around you matter, including their relationship with yourself. It's the one that matters the most. But you got to stop squandering yourself, doubting yourself, because it will hold you back.

So think about or write down the relationship that give you the most peace and freedom inside. Who are those relationships in your life? Maybe you only got one person. Maybe there's only a few people that are really in your corner who fully accept you where you can be 100% yourself, all your flaws, all your positivity, all your quirks, your personality. You can be 100% yourself.

And they accept you. It doesn't mean they don't want more for you, but they accept you and they're supporting you into growing into the better version of you. Think about those people. Write those people down. I want you to send a text to one of those individuals today.

The peer, the person who's in your kernel or your corner, not in your circle, but your corner, who just, man, they show up for you. They love you, they accept you. They never judge you or try to hold you down. Instead of criticizing you, they coach you and support you in a positive way. They don't try to just shun you and tell you what not to do.

I want you to send that person a text and tell them just, hey, I really appreciate our friendship and I'm grateful that you're in my corner. And let me know later, you can send me a DM on Instagram. Let me know if that person replies. When you tell them that, I think you'll see that you deepen that relationship. Esther Perel, someone we've had on many times, an amazing thought leader, therapist, coach, said, the quality of your life ultimately depends on the quality of your relationships.

How many of you know that to be true? When you're in a crappy relationship, it just sucks the life out of you. And when you're in a positive relationship, it gives you energy. And we just had Doctor Tara Swart on recently on the school of Radius and she said we attract people based on our psychological wounds. We posted a video on social media about this and I think it got like 15 million views.

We attract people based on our psychological wounds and that also means we attract people based on our positive healed emotions as well. We attract people based on that positive energy as well. But how many of you have ever attracted someone based on a psychological wound? And you thought it was a good thing at first, but then later realized, man, we were just trauma bonding or we had no clue. We were both wounded, whatever it might been.

And this image, I always see this image from burning man, someone took that a lot of us are really just little kids inside of bigger bodies. And we may have our egos making us go back to back or arguing or fighting with one another or being in conflict or frustrated and upset with one another. But at the end of the day, we just have an inner child that wants to be seen, that wants to be loved, that wants to be accepted, that wants to feel valued. And when we let go of our ego and we open our hearts, we can allow these inner children to play. And I think that's something that a lot of us in the world needs right now, is the ability to open our hearts and play because we've forgotten what it feels like to feel emotionally safe within ourselves and around others.

We've forgotten what it feels like to truly love, to love ourselves, to love others, and to play again, I'm not saying love everyone you know, and the first time you see them and, you know, have no boundaries and just allow people to walk all over you, that's not what self love is, but allowing yourself to love yourself and walk away from people if needed to, or create space if needed to, or create healthy boundaries. This final point that I want to talk about again, I hope this has been a helpful process for you so far. I want to share. The final point is to allow for magic to come in your life. I've been to so many different meditation retreats.

I've been to a lot of different spiritual ceremonies and practices and churches. And there's different places in the world. I've gotten to experience in nature that are very spiritual for me. Different parts of the world where different events have happened in the past, historic events. And the more I allow for magic in my life to enter me, I allow for synchronicities, for signs, for symbols to show me that I'm on the right path, the more just incredible things happen.

And I truly believe that I've lived a life for me, that is, my 5912 year old self would feel like, man, you got to live this type of life. It's pretty crazy coming from the home that I came from and from the small town or from the disabilities that I had around my ability to learn and read and write and, you know, just to be able to live the experiences I've had experiences. I feel blessed and grateful every day now. I've also experienced a lot of challenging things that have held me back, and I've struggled and had traumas, but I really try to look at the positive stuff that I've got to experience, and I allow for magic to come in my life. I'm a dreamer.

I dream and dream of possibilities. It doesn't mean every dream comes true, but I dream, and a lot of dreams come true. And I want you to think about these emotions right now. I want to share some emotions with you. I want you to feel these emotions, and I'm going to share with you in a second and connect them to the future desires that you have in your life.

So I want you to think about some of the things you want in your life right now, some of the dreams that you might have, and I want to share some of these emotions that will support you we talked about five emotions that will block your abundance. I want to share the five emotions that if you can live into these on a consistent basis, it doesn't mean you're never going to feel anger or sadness or stress. It's going to happen. But if you can become a newer version of you on a consistent basis, the best way possible is making it a habit and a routine and a ritual on a daily basis. And you can access, and I don't even know if access is the right word, but if you can share these emotions with yourself and with your environment, synchronicities, signs, symbols, and magic starts to appear.

I don't understand it, you know, call it faith, call it the universe, call it God, I don't know, but things start to open up and they just come to me when I'm in these emotions. So I'm going to share these emotions with you right now. The first one is joy. Again, we've forgotten how to play and how to just be joyful, be silly, be goofy, be, you know, playful, like joy. When you just think in the morning, how can I be joyful and spread joy?

Good things happen. Good things happen. How many of you can, can relate to this? That when you go to a restaurant, you go to a restaurant and you've got a waiter or waitress or server, and man, they're just struggling. They're just take 20 minutes to get your order.

They get the order wrong, they're frustrated, they don't look you in the eye. They're not connected to you. You can tell they're down. It's not an enjoyable experience. When you go out to eat, you want to have a good experience.

You're spending more money, you're going out with your friends or family, and when the server doesn't have joy, it just kind of like, just makes everyone awkward. But when that server, I mean, I don't know how these people do it. Sometimes when they, when they remember 20 people's order without writing it down, I'm like, that brings me joy. I'm like, man, that's an amazing skill. And I'm always kind of worried, like, are they gonna remember my order?

But they do. And I'm like, wow. And everyone's putting sauce on the side and take this off. Especially in Los Angeles, everyone's got like 13 different substitutes for one thing that has, like, three items on it. And I don't understand how these servers remember everything.

And when they come and they tell a joke and they're positive and they're having fun with you, and they're being played playful, man. And they bring that joy. What happens? I'm like, screw 20%. How can I give 50% to 100%?

A tip? I'm like, you created a joyful experience for me. Let me give you back. Thank you for that joyful moment, that hour of joy. Here's more money and a tip.

And that works in the universe, too. When you bring joy to a workplace, to a relationship, to yourself, it comes back to you and you don't want to do it. Thinking of like, I'm going to bring joy so I get something in return. But when you do that, man, good things happen. The universe says yes, yes to you.

Next emotion is love. Again, we've got to learn to let our inner childs feel the love and be willing to express that. Get out of our ego, get into our heart. We talked about that before. Tap into love.

How can I be more loving today? How can I express more love to people in my life and be less guarded? The third thing is, how can I feel or experience freedom? Even if you don't feel free, how can I create freedom in my life? You know, I've been to, I've been to many places that are feel like people shouldn't feel free.

You know, developing countries, I've been to prisons. I've been to different places where people are living in scarcity or living in an imprisoned environment. And sometimes the people who have the least or who are locked up have incredible peace and freedom inside. And it's amazing to watch people who have very little still feel free and start to create an energy around them of feeling free and creating that freedom. Fourth one is inspiration.

Live a life of inspiration. Be an inspiring person. Make inspiring things, whether it be in your workplace, whether it be in, if you're an artist, like, create inspiration for you and you'll inspire other people. Bring that joy. And the fifth one, which is the gateway to abundance, is gratitude.

Gratitude is the gateway to abundance. It's something I practice every single day, multiple times throughout the day. When I wake up, I say, thank you for another day of my life. I'm grateful for this life. When I go out the door of my home, I say, thank you for this incredible sanctuary, God, thank you for.

For this space that I have to rest, to recover, to be inspired. Thank you for this safe home for me and my fiance to create a life together. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You know, this live masterclass that I'm doing right now, I'm grateful to all of you. Thousand, 25,000 people registered for this.

And I'm grateful for each one of you for being a part of this, for creating this experience with me, for co creating this experience. I'm grateful for my team, for helping support this and build this. I'm just grateful. And when you live in those emotions and you feel those emotions, when you connect it to the desires you have in your life, beautiful things start to happen. Emotions.

These are the emotions that shift you into your abundant future. Gratitude, inspiration, freedom, love, and joy. And I saw someone say, it's hard to find joy at this current point in life, and this is a great thing to talk about. Some of you might be thinking, well, I have nothing. I'm in debt.

My. My partner is abusing me right now in this part of my life and my relationship. My parents are holding me down. I'm in a crappy job that I feel like I'm trapped in. We've got no money, health problems, challenges, the wars, the conflicts, the political dis ease that is happening in the world right now.

All these things that are unjust. How can I find joy? How can I find freedom, Louis? How can I find love? How can I be grateful when there's all this pain, when there's all this sadness, when everything is going against me, how can I feel free?

Love, joy, gratitude. Sounds like a bunch of crap. How can I feel these things if I'm suffering right now? And again, I wish the world was easy. I wish there was no suffering, no pain.

There was no problems. I wish. And again, our mission is to serve 100 million lives weekly by helping them improve the quality of their life and overcome the things that hold them back. And that is my mission and our mission here at the school of greatness. And again, let me remind you, a mission calls upon the deeper parts of our souls and moves us to attempt something greater than ourselves.

And every good story requires a problem in a hero willing to solve it. Otherwise, there is no story. I wish life was easier sometimes, and sometimes I don't know why. It is the way it is. Based on your faith and based on what you believe, this is where we're at.

But what I do know is we have these emotions, these five emotions that we can live in that will not support us in creating abundance. If we live in those scarcity emotions, it will not enrich our environment and our heart and our soul to create magic in our life as hard as it is. I remember interviewing Novak Djokovic, the current number one in the world right now. And when I interviewed him, he said he grew up in war with for months of bombs, missiles flying over his head while he was practicing tennis as a little boy. And he said it was extremely challenging and painful.

And I wish it didn't happen for him. I wish I wasn't sexually abused and I wish people didn't get sexually abused or experienced pain or I wish these things didn't happen for people. But he turned that pain into his purpose. He used it as a tool to help him inspire the world to pursue his dreams. And I wish it didn't happen for him.

I wish I didn't live in a war. I wish people weren't in a war right now. I wish there weren't all these political problems right now. But we get to use our talents and gifts and our joy and our abundance and our gratitude to try to shift the energy of the world, at least shift the energy of our world. And by doing that, we unlock the gateway to abundance through those positive feelings and emotions.

I hope that resonates and makes sense. I love this quote from Doctor Joe Dispenza again. Doctor Joe Dispenza is speaking live at summit of greatness. If you want to watch him live, it's happening in Los Angeles. Make sure you check the event out.

Summonofgreatness.com dot. We'll link it in the chat as well. Doctor Joe Dispenza we just had him on, I don't know, a few weeks ago, got a million views on our YouTube channel and this interview is blown up. He said we send the signal out with clear intention, and trusting in the outcome is a function of a coherent heart with an elevated emotion. We open our hearts, we surrender.

We draw the experience to us again. Think of your body, your heart, and your mind like this. Your mind is sending out a signal again. Doctor Joe says you send out a signal with a clear intention. Most of you don't have a clear intention.

It's blocking your abundance. I'm not sure what direction. What do I do? How do I overcome this? You're unclear, so you're sending out a signal to the world that is unclear.

When you set out an unclear signal, you bring back. You draw in lack, mixed signals, a lack of abundance. You're drawing in the based on the response of the signal you're sending out. When you send out a signal, this is what I'm clear I want to do. This is my mission.

This is my meaningful mission. This is the fearsome overcome. This is how I'm improving myself. This is what I'm letting go of. This is the boundaries I'm creating.

When you send the signal out, you draw in the harmonious abundance, and it doesn't all happen overnight, so you can't be impatient as well. You have to be open to the magic of the world, to the magic of possibilities. Send out the signal, you draw in the experience based on the signal you're sending out. And I had to learn to trust and surrender to the outcome. So, for those that were here at the beginning of this masterclass, you heard me tell the story about the fly, the fly that is beating himself over the head on the window, seeing freedom on the other side, but was unable, again to get out of the window.

That was trapped, that was just imprisoning himself. And this fly eventually died just trying harder, as opposed to trying something new and creating a gateway for abundance by turning around, doing something different, trying something new, trying on a new approach, and flying his way to freedom. And I had to learn to trust and surrender to the outcome. And it is not easy. I wish it was easy.

This is a process. It's a journey, and it takes time. If you're someone like me that likes immersion, that actually wants to experience what abundance feels like in an environment, and you don't want to just think about it. You don't want to just, you know, consume a little bit here and there, but you want to be immersed. You want to feel the fertile environment of what abundance energetically is.

You want to enter your body, your mind, and your heart and soul in the environment, and you want to experience that. So you can say, okay, now I'm clear. Now I have the tools. Now I've got the inspiration from top minds who are showing me the process. Now I'm meeting other people who are think like me, who feel like me, who.

Who acts like me, who want something different in their lives. And I've got the community. If that's something that you like to do, it's something I like to do. I immerse myself in experiences to transform, then leave a yes as well. If that's something you like over just analytically thinking or only reading about something, but immersion yourself so that you can be fertile yourself and create that transformation.

If that's something that you like, you love being a part of, and you want to experience more because you know it will support you, then I'm telling you guys, this is your call to action. This is your moment in your life right now. If you feel stuck, blocked, or stagnant, now's the time to immerse yourself, do whatever you can to get yourself to summitofgreatness.com. it's our live event. You can go to lewishowes.com 2024.
