The Pathway To Your Results
Trust The Process
In this episode, let's journey through the lens of spiritual curiosity, where the quest for self-worth becomes a divine game of discovery. By letting go of societal pressures and embracing life's contrasts, we find beauty in the full spectrum of human emotions and experiences. This episode encourages you to shift from seeking external validation to finding contentment and meaning within, framing your life as an adventure of self-discovery and appreciation for the present moment.
Once you see what you actually are, that you're an infinite, limitless being, you'll see that nothing exists outside of you. I'm your host, derek Grant, and this is the Pathway to your Results Podcast. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Pathway to your Results podcast, presented by DG Mindset. It is your boy, dg. We are here, live and, in effect, I trust that this day, this experience, this moment that we call now is teaching you. You're learning, you're growing, you're evolving.
Speaker 1:This episode is for all those out there that they know they have more, they know they can do it, they have the vision, but they sit in here. We feel stuck. We feel stuck. We're wondering about how, how are we going to get there? How am I going to do it? This is what I found within this human game. This is usually where we get hung up. This thing called the mind, this thing called the ego, gets us stuck because it wants to know all the details. It wants to know how are we going to get there? How are we going to do it?
Speaker 1:Everybody's always wondering about how, and I'm telling you right now you ain't got to worry about how. You need to focus on now If I don't worry about how, and I focus on now, the how will come eventually once I get there. But there doesn't actually exist, because when I get there, it's really just going to be another here. So this is what I'm trying to tell you is you don't even got to worry about anything up there. You only have to worry about here, because even when you get there, it's just in another eternal here. There has only been here. They will always only be here, meaning there is only now. So let's not worry about how, let's focus on now. So sometimes I just got to do a podcast where I got to teach you. Sometimes I got to do a podcast where I got to come with the energy of encouraging you, right, because so often in life we always wonder when am I going to get there? How come it's not happening? Can we just take a moment to look back at where you were and where you are now? Look, look at where you are right now. I get it. I mean, we're all. We're always, as LeBron James says, we're striving for greatness. Right, we're always striving for more. But I'm just here to let you know right now, in this moment, there's a version of you. Good God, almighty, you ain't trying to hear nothing.
Speaker 1:I'm saying, right now, there is a version of you that would have done anything to be where you are at right now. It would have done anything to be where you are right now. Go back and look at your life. Go. It would have done anything to be where you are right now. Go back and look at your life. Go back and look at the hardest time that you've ever been through, whether it was the abuse, it was the situation. You lost something, somebody walked out. You had abandoned, you got rejected At some point. At some point that was the hardest thing that you've ever endured. And you right now, and maybe you're not where you want to be, but right now, in this moment in space and time, there's a version of you from the past that is looking at you with eyes open, mouth on the floor, saying, goodness, gracious, I did it.
Speaker 1:But how quickly we forget because we're always looking for the next destination, we're always looking for the next mountain to climb, when we never take time to what do they call this reflect? I had to look back on my life and got goals. I got dreams, I got things that I'm looking to overcome and I'm like man how am I going to get there? How am I going to get there? And I was in my closet, I was meditating, I was taking my time for stillness, like I do all the time. Then this voice came from the right side of me. This energy, this presence, it said you ain't got to worry about how, you don't have to worry about it. All you got to do is worry about right now. Why don't you focus off your energy on that? And then, in that gap in between now and up there, why don't we just sprinkle it with a little bit of trust, go ahead and throw a little seasoning on it of surrendering and knowing that you're going to get there, because you always have gotten there. You always have gotten there every single time. Oh, okay, hold on now. Hold on now.
Speaker 1:Let me go ahead and say this, let me reframe it, because I know what you're saying. Well, I didn't get there. No, you didn't get there in the way that you thought you were going to get there, but you got there. And I'm not talking about the physical that you got there. You got there vibrationally, energetically. See, we've talked about this before.
Speaker 1:You don't really want the things that you're seeking. You want the version of you that is creating the thing that you are seeking. Good God, almighty, what you are looking for is you. You are looking for the version of yourself that got there, but sometimes you get there as the version of you who's more healed, who's more aware, who's more self-reliant, who's more self-accepted, who's more self-validating. Sometimes you get to that version and life doesn't look like how you thought it should look, because you wanted this, you wanted that, you wanted all of these things. But hear me when I tell you you did it. You got there. You're at this new frequency, with a new level of awareness. Do we see? You're at this version of you who is able to move past the trauma, who's able to reconcile these past versions of yourself and retell the story. So now you're not moving in a space of lack, you're not moving in a space of scarcity.
Speaker 1:So this voice that I heard, this message that I'm just simply channeling and passing along to you, oh, my goodness, I just realized and reflected, because something came up in my life that made me feel like it's not going to happen, and this feminine energy came in from the right and she said we're just trying to align you just a little bit more. We're just trying to align you, because if you were truly aligned, you wouldn't have any fear right now of whether or not you're going to get quote unquote there. If you were truly aligned, you wouldn't be sitting here stressing yourself, worrying about how am I going to do this. If you were truly aligned, you wouldn't be worried about whether or not it looks like it's going to happen, because you would already be at the version of you that you were seeking anyway. Do we see how this works? So, for everybody who's listening right now, if you can hear this, you can hear this.
Speaker 1:I know we did a podcast on alignment. I just had to pass this along to you to tell you that you're going to always get there. You're going to get there. I promise you you will get there. I promise you that you're going to always get there. You're going to get there. I promise you you will get there. I promise you you're going to get there. You're going to get there, and you ain't got to worry about how it's going to happen, because that is the beauty of this thing that we call life, this existence in this three-dimensional reality that makes it look like time is happening linearly.
Speaker 1:I'm making up words linearly. You know what I'm trying to say. It makes it look like your life is a straight line. But if you could zoom out from the place of your guides, if you could zoom out and see from the place of your higher self, if you could zoom out and see from the place of the I am that bird's eye view that can see everything that's happening below it you would look back on your life, good God almighty. You would look at it and say I'm just fine, I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be right now in this thing that we call now.
Speaker 1:Now, I know what you're going to say yeah, but I'm a human being too. No, no, no, no, no. You were a being human. You were a being human. You were not a human being. See, they got you to fall for that they thought. They made you think that the being came second, got you to fall for that. They made you think that the being came second.
Speaker 1:How in the world can awareness come after the effect, good God Almighty? How can the cause come after the effect? The first cause will always be awareness. The first cause will always be the spiritual plane. The first cause of the finite will always be the infinite being. So how in the world. How in the world can the being come after the human? Somebody, please tell me.
Speaker 1:And then here's what ends up happening we get brainwashed, we get conditioned, we get distracted to start living life through the mind. And now you really think that you were the mind, but the mind was the thing that was hanging on myself anyway, do we see? So this is what I'm telling you right now. Good God, almighty, I'm telling you to turn your mind off just for a little bit and just hear me when I'm saying let it get down into your cellular structure, let it sizzle in your spirit, as the old folks used to say back in church, and trust and know that you're going to get there. You're going to get there and know that every level that's coming, you're going to know when you reach a new level. Somebody just told me today.
Speaker 1:They said when there's a new level, there's a new devil, meaning there's a new part of your ego, there's a new part of your mind, there's a new fear, there's a new anxiety, there's a new stress, there's a new worry. All of these things are coming with the new version of you. You thought you was going to get to the new frequency you thought you was going to hit a new level. You thought you was going to make more money and things was going to stay the same. They're not going to stay the same because when you understand that you're infinite, there are infinite layers. They are infinite layers and if there's infinite layers, that means there's infinite room for growth.
Speaker 1:So I started to think back on my life, because somebody told me they said, man manifestation is easier. It's easier when you're unaware. It ain't easier when you're unaware. You was manifesting your life even when you was unaware. It's just that ignorance is bliss, meaning the less that I see, the less that I will feel, and the less that I'll feel. I don't have the range of the spectrum of emotions or energy that I can experience. Now we can look at that and say, oh well, that's the beauty of it. It's like I don't have to feel everything. Yes, but then also the other side of that is you also don't get to experience all that which you actually are. So sometimes we think it's harder when we wake up. We think it's more challenging when you wake up. That is one side of the coin, for sure, but the other side is too.
Speaker 1:Now that I'm awake, I can consciously choose how I want to experience this reality. See, before, when I was asleep, before, when you was asleep, we didn't get to choose how we experienced reality. You thought that was happening at work. You thought that it was your co-workers, you thought it was your boss. You thought it was your life. You thought all these things outside of you.
Speaker 1:But now that you've woken up, you say, wait a minute, this was actually me who was creating this suffering in my life. This is actually me who's creating this turmoil in my life. And all the universe is doing, all life's trying to do, is get you to see where that misalignment was through these triggers, through you feeling this fear. And I'm here to tell you this when you do get to the new level, you will know. When you get to the new level, you will know it without a doubt, because you're going to have a sense of peace, but you're also going to have the opposite side of what do I do, how do I do this? And that ego, that mind's going to start to creep in and you're going to sit here now, you caught up in all the things that you shouldn't be caught up in right now. So this is why I tell you why it's so important for you to just trust and know, trust and know and now, Trust and know, and now Do we see?
Speaker 1:So let's, let's, let's dive just a little bit deeper. Look at all. Look at all the things that had to quote unquote. Go right, all the things that had to quote unquote. Be perfect for you to have air in your lungs, awareness in your body and for you to be even sitting here listening to this right now. Think about that. Think about all the things that had to have happened for you to be right where you're at right now. Good God, almighty, I'm not going to bring in death and talk about it in this way where you're at right now, good God, almighty, I'm not going to bring in death and talk about it in this way. But just last week we see this plane, the helicopter, right, the helicopter, the military helicopter, crashed into the American Airlines and they said man, they were only 200 feet, 300 feet from landing. They were about to land. Look at where you're at right now. Look at where you're at.
Speaker 1:I know you've still got your fears, you've got your scarce mindset. I'm telling you that that's not needed if you just look at the miracle of what it took for you to be in this moment right now. How many things had to have not happened for you to be where you are right now. That's one side. Then look at how many things had to happen for you to be right where you're at right now. Do we see how this works? So I'm really talking to myself right now.
Speaker 1:I had to remind myself, son, you're going to do it, you're going to be it, but you can only be it right now. And if you can't be it right now, if you just can't, it just feels like, oh my gosh, it feels so far away. That just means there's misalignment and that's where we need to spend our energy. And this is what abundance is. This is what abundance is. Abundance says I'm going to figure it out, I'm going to get there. I don't know how I'm going to get there, but guess what? It'll be in my book, it'll be in my memoir and I'll tell you exactly how I did it. I'll tell you when I'm on my deathbed. I'll tell you exactly how I did it. But right now, in this moment, I can't tell you how I did it. I can just tell you how I am.
Speaker 1:So, walking in this universal energy of trust, walking in this universal energy of surrendering. And here's what surrendering does. Surrendering doesn't mean you sit back on your couch and meditate and go on all these retreats and say I don't know how it's going to happen, but it's going to happen. No, you're going to have to do something. You're going to have to do something, and here's what the doing is it's through you being, it's through you being. But see, here's what ends up happening.
Speaker 1:We got this old program. You're like an old MacBook. You know you have the MacBook. You got the iOS. You got the operating system. We got the old, you got the old. We got the old, outdated version, the old, outdated version from our caregivers, our parents, our grandparents, whoever society that gave you an operating system that don't match this new computer that you got in this life. You got a new computer, you got a new life, but we still got the old operating system. I mean, we still got the old programs. We still got the old fear. We still got the old anxiety. We still got the old stress. We still got these old things that probably, most likely, they weren't even yours.
Speaker 1:You know why? You got a fear of not having enough, because somebody else put it on your way, somebody else put it on you. That's why you know why you have a fear of not having enough money, because you have been unconsciously conditioned to think that if I had enough money, then things would be hunky-dory and I would be enough and I would be free and I would be peace. That is a paradigm, that is a belief system. That is not true outside of your belief. But the problem is is we've taken on somebody else's beliefs. So this is why it's so hard for us to trust and know that we're going to get there, because we start looking at somebody else's life, we start looking at somebody else's belief system. Good God, good gracious in relation to where we are.
Speaker 1:So you look at somebody else's life on Instagram and you say, dang, they get that, they got that many followers, they got this many views. And you are comparing it to your existence, not realizing that your soul had its own lessons that it needed to learn. Your soul had its own karma that it needed to work off. Your soul had its own things that it needs to figure out and process, because it has its own mission, it has its own purpose, it has its own passions. So for us to sit here and compare ourselves to where we think we should be when we should be there. It is not fair. It is not just for us to do this.
Speaker 1:I've been trying to tell you all this for I don't know how long. This is a one-player game. I know it looks like there's other players. There ain't nobody else playing this game other than you. And when you realize this, this is when the game will change, my friend. This is when you will start to see. All I got to do is stop focusing on how and start spending my energy on now. And this, my friends, is what an abundant mindset says. I don't sit here and worry about how and I know if I'm worried about how that just means that I'm misaligned. That just means I'm distracted. That just means I forgot. That just means I fell asleep. That just means I am running my life right now. I am running my operating system from an operating system that is not in alignment with my computer. My computer is ready. Look, hear me when I say this. We got those quantum computers. All of us, we all got these quantum computers. We have access to it within us.
Speaker 1:Do you not know that the greatest technology known to mankind is mankind. Everybody keeps talking about AI. Ai is going to take over. Ai is going to take over. How is AI going to take over? When we created AI, somebody tell me that. How is the creation going to be bigger and better than the creator?
Speaker 1:Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing. I'm saying right now. Do we not see? You were it, you were the technology, you were the thing that was going to bring everything into existence. Now we could probably zoom out, because if you look at AI in relation to you, you are God to AI. You are the thing that AI will worship. Because you created AI, we created it. Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing I'm saying right now. But do we not know that that's happening on another level? When you look up and I'm not talking about up to the sky, I'm talking about when you look at that which has created you, you are a smaller version of it, because the creator will always be inside of the creation and the creation cannot surpass the creator. While it may look like it, while it may seem like it, that is just the small-minded ego thinking that it is more than the thing that it has created. Y'all ain't trying to hear none of this of what I'm saying right now.
Speaker 1:So, when you start to walk in this energy and know that I have the ability, I I think about the I, the I was immortal. It was infinite. The I am. I have the ability to create my life just as I desire, just as I please, as long as I'm not over here getting caught up in the weeds wondering how it's going to transpire and how it's going to happen. See, this is what I had to tell you the I also stood for infinite. So now, because you are infinite, there was infinite ways that it was going to show itself.
Speaker 1:People ask me man, you play for the Globetrotters. How'd you do that, boy, if I would have told you anyway, somebody gave me a billion tries to figure out how I was going to get on the Harlem Globetrotters I never would have thought that this was going to happen. Never, never, never, never. I can tell you now exactly how it happened. I went to a camp in Scranton, pennsylvania. Went to that camp, met a guy named Al Clocker. Al Clocker said hey, I think you'd be good for this team called the New York Nationals. Went and met with a guy named John Farrar. He was the GM, the owner of the New York Nationals Did that for a year. Manny Jackson, who was the owner of the Harlem Globe Choir, said hey, will you come over and try out for us? I said, yep, I'll go ahead and do it. Went ahead and made the team.
Speaker 1:Now I played eight years, traveled to 70 different countries, was on the Today Show. Good Morning America. Are you smarter than a fifth grader? No, I was not smarter than a fifth grader, if you were wondering. But my point of this is I can tell you exactly how I did it. I can tell you exactly what path I took. It is not hard for me to look back on it. I could tell you. I can tell you. But here's what I couldn't do.
Speaker 1:I remember when I finished college and I was wondering how am I going to get there? I remember when I used to show up to the gym every day with my trainer, phil Vigliano. We used to work out every single day with no contract on the table no, nothing. And I'd show up to the gym and there'd be days when I'd be driving to the gym. I'd be crying. I'd be wondering, like man my dream going to come true? How am I going to do this? How am I going to do this? It doesn't look like it's going to happen. I got mom and dad saying you need to get a job, you need to figure it out, what is going on. You left college and you didn't graduate. You didn what I got to tell you. If you have the ability to dream, that means you would also have the ability to conceive it.
Speaker 1:Just because it's not happening Doesn't mean it won't happen. Just because it doesn't look like You're going to get there from where you are right now Doesn't mean you ain't going to get there. Just because it doesn't look like it's going to work out, it doesn't mean that it ain't going to work out. That ain't what it means. That ain't what it means. And here's what I realized Every time that it looks like it ain't going to work out. That ain't what it means. That ain't what it means. And here's what I realized Every time that it looks like it ain't going to work out. The only reason why it doesn't look like it's going to work out is because the version of you, the frequency, the vibration that you're at right now, it can't work out. It won't work out of the way of being that you are.
Speaker 1:Let's just say, for numerical purposes, for an analogy to make it easy you over here resonating at 5.0, but where you're trying to get to, you're going to have to be an 8.0. So at 5.0, it doesn't even look like 8.0 exists. You know it's somewhere out there, you know that it's somewhat capable, that it's a possibility, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen because you're at 5.0. So the universe, life, says okay, you three points away. So we have to get rid of the parts of you. We have to show the parts of you that live in fear, that live in scarcity, that live in lack. We have to show you all of those parts. And then it's on your way to make sure that you work through it. And if you do it meaning you show up every day you show up every day and you put that work in on yourself, you figure out why you are the way you are, you go back and touch those wounds. If you can do that, you will slowly start to move from a 5.0 to a 5.1 and a 5.1 to a 5.2. And then this thing that we call time, in this three-dimensional reality, it's going to continue to unfold just as it is, meaning the moment is just going to go into one moment, to another moment, to another moment. When you add up all of those moments this is what we call time when you add up all of those sequential nows this is what you call time you will eventually start to see, dang, I'm not at an 8.0, but I'm at a 6.5. But you won't know that you're at a 6.5 in relation to the 5.0 unless you look back on the 5.0. So this is why I got to tell you sometimes you're going to have to look back and see where you've come from, to give you energy and give you faith and give you trust and give you the understanding of knowing if I can go from a 5.0 to a 6.5, I know I can go from a 6.5 to an 8.0.
Speaker 1:You've done it once before. You've done it multiple times before. Think about when you learn how to walk. You learn how to walk because you fell down. Now, this was unconscious to you, but you stood up the first time and you balanced on those little nubby feet. But you stood up the first time and you balanced on those little nubby feet and that was enough to give you enough belief that this was even possible. And you fell down and you stood back up one more time and then you fell down again and you stood and you fell down and you stood back up one more time, and you did this repeatedly over the course of weeks, and then here's what ended up happening those around you, your parents, your grandparents, your family what happens when a baby starts walking? Everybody always catches it on film and they're like, oh yeah, you did it.
Speaker 1:You started to borrow their energy and then you had this smile on your face. You felt the encouragement, you felt the energy of all those around you, because they then started to believe what you had always believed, even though it was unconscious. Do we see how this works? So I started to realize my job, your job, our job is not to spend our energy on how and when and where. Our job is to first conceive that this is even a possibility and then ask ourselves what, in this moment, right now, can I do that's in alignment with where I wanted to get to? So, even when I'm trying to get to 8.0 and I'm at 5.0, I'm asking myself how is the 8.0 handling this right now? What type of mindset, what type of actions does the 8.0 have when I'm at a 5.0? And here's the beauty of it Life's going to show you all the parts of you in that 5.0 that have to be let go of.
Speaker 1:People are going to look at you and say, oh, you don't get it, you don't get enough followers. Oh, you ain't, you ain't you, you don't have enough money. Nobody from your family has ever done that before. Nobody who looks like you has ever done that. Nobody's ever done that before. How are you going to do that? And it's not hating on you.
Speaker 1:Let's reframe the way we look at this thing called haters. They're not haters. They have been divinely assigned by the universe to show you where your lack of belief exists. Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing I'm saying so. I started to realize when I was in college and I said I want to be a professional basketball player and I had a teammate who said you ain't going to play pro ball. He wasn't hating on me, he was just trying to show me where in the world. I didn't believe this, because here's the deal you ain't going to believe nothing and you ain't going to see nothing that you didn't already have inside of yourself. So when someone hates on you and they says you can't do this and you believe them. That just means that you had that belief inside of you and the universe used them to show you. You got some stuff inside of you that's not aligned with the 8.0 version of you.
Speaker 1:Do we see how this works? So, an abundant mindset will show you, will allow you to see, will allow you to see. No, I'm going to get there because I'm just going to focus on now. Right now, I'm not worried about nothing else. I got goals, I got dreams, I got aspirations. We all do right. Maybe you want to buy a house, you want to buy a car, maybe you want to get in that relationship. You want to do all these things in the quote unquote future.
Speaker 1:But we so fixated on the future and worrying about how it's going to show itself that we never take time to focus on this thing that we call now. Take that energy from the future and then self-reflect and contemplate in the now. Is this how he would be doing this? Is this how he would be talking to himself? Is this how she would be believing in herself if she was an 8.0? Is that what she would do? No, it's not. So then that means there's something inside of you that's distorted.
Speaker 1:There's a bug in your operating system. Good God, almighty, the computer, the framework is fine, but there's something off with the operating system. The operating system may have been programmed too long ago and I haven't plugged in my charger to upgrade it. You know, when you got those iPhones I don't have an Android, but if you got an iPhone they ain't going to let you upgrade nothing unless you plugged in and you charged up. Oh, we got a new update, yeah, but you can't. You got to wait till you plug that thing up. You got to be charged up, meaning you have to be in the right space energetically. I can't be in the right space energetically, meaning I can't really start healing as long as I keep moving in this scarce mindset. I'm going to have to plug myself in, I'm going to have to charge myself up.
Speaker 1:So here's what I started doing. I started to encourage myself. I started to tell myself and write it down, all these things that I thought I needed. This is what I needed. I needed to know that I was going to get there. I wrote down on my lampshade like a post-it note. I put on my lampshade and said you paid the cost to be the boss. You paid the cost, meaning you put your time in, you put your sweat equity in, you've gone through the suffering. Now it's time you take these lessons and integrate them into life so you can start to upgrade. You put your time in D. That was enough to get me over the hump to believe that what these dreams were, that I had, it was possible, because here, if you're not careful, here's what's going to happen. You're going to have these dreams and these aspirations and you'll accomplish them. You accomplish it. And then you'll get there and you'll be like dang, this is it. Dang, this is all. And then you'll have the next thing that you're striving for and you'll be like man, this is dang, this is it. And now, before you know it, you're over here like a dog chasing its tail and nothing's ever enough, nothing's ever good enough for you. We see this all the time.
Speaker 1:At some point, I ask myself at what point is enough enough? At what point is enough? I got $80 billion. At what point is enough enough? I don't even need all this money. My kids don't need all this money, my grandkids, but you know who does? There's other people in this world who maybe need that. At what point will enough be? Enough. Enough will never be enough as long as you're asleep. Enough will never be enough as long as you think your self-worth and your self-validation is rooted in the thing that you thought was going to make you enough.
Speaker 1:So I started to reflect and ask myself what are these things that you feel like aren't going to happen, or these goals that you feel like, that feel like they're so far away? That 8.0? Why is there such an attachment that you can't enjoy the 5.0 of where you are? If you know that you're going to get to the 8.0, why wouldn't you enjoy the 5.0? Why not? Why would we not? Ah, that's because you think the 8.0 is going to validate the 5.0. I'm not realizing that the 5.0 was just really the 8.0 compared to the 2.0. And the 2.0, you of you would have done anything to get to the 5.0. Now here you are at the 5.0, and that 5.0 isn't good enough for you. And I hear you are hoping that the 8.0, when I get there, I got to get there, I got to have this happen, whatever does that, and you'll get there, and it still won't be enough.
Speaker 1:So here's the paradox there is no there. There is no there. I know what you're thinking, if I could just make this much, if I could just have this partner, if I could just have my marriage. There is no there. That isn't what you're chasing. You were chasing yourself. You were chasing this new version of you. You were chasing this new operating system.
Speaker 1:Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing that I'm saying right now. So I might as well go ahead and get off, because you really ain't trying to hear nothing I'm saying. I've been telling you this for years. You ain't chasing these things on the outside. He was chasing you on the inside. But that blindsided ego made you think that that thing was on the outside and you fell for it. We all fell for it. This was part of the human game. We're playing what they call hide and go seek. It's a game of forgetting and remembering.
Speaker 1:Now I ask myself why in the world would spirit forget itself? If spirit is all-knowing, why does it have to experience itself from all of these different perspectives? Why would I constantly recreate a new version of myself, to experience life from this new version? Why would I do that if that what I actually am is all-knowing? Because do we not know that there is a difference between knowing and experiencing?
Speaker 1:Spirit just want to experience. Yeah, I got all this understanding, I got all this knowledge, I got all this intellectual, I know, but I want to see what it's like. I want to see what it smells like. I want to see what it feels like. I want to see what it smells like. I want to see what it feels like. I want to see what it tastes like. This is what spirit's saying. So I know, I know what's able, what's capable of being created. I want to experience it. I want to feel the pain. I want to feel the trauma. I want to feel the joy. I want to see what it's like. I don't want to just go off of this concept of what I think it would be like. I want to experience it. This is what spirit is saying.
Speaker 1:So, before we start to denounce and cuss out these parts of us that we're ashamed of, do we not know? On a spiritual level, on a universal level, spirit just wanted to see what that felt like. Just like you, you don't want to get to the 8.0 with the things. You want to be the version, because you want to see what it feels like. What is it like for me to walk through life and not have to worry about whether or not I'm going to have enough. What is it like to be in a relationship and I don't have to worry about whether or not they accept me because I accept myself. What is that like? But it also wants to see. What is it like when I don't see all of myself? What is it like when I don't think that I'm enough? I want to see what this feels like.
Speaker 1:So the reason why I'm saying this to alleviate a little bit of pressure, because this world has done a fantastic job of making you think that you had to be at a certain place and you had to have a certain amount and you had to have accomplished a certain amount by a certain age or a certain timeframe. To alleviate the pressure, become like that eight-month-old child and just say what would it be like? You get to see it in the divine. Why do you think babies is always putting things in their mouth? Why do you think the toddler wants to stick the fork in the electrical socket?
Speaker 1:On a deeper, universal level, it just wants to see what it's like. It just wants to see. It just wants to see. It just wants to experience. And this is the divine game of being human. We just want to see what it was like being walking around with these old, raggedy ass meat sacks. It just wants to see what it's like wearing this suit of flesh. It just wants to see what it's like because, where it is from, it doesn't get to experience the polarity and I told you on this episode earlier polarity is what gives us meaning. Polarity is what gives us meaning. Your trauma is what gives meaning to this relationship. That you're in. The 2.0 version of you is what gave meaning to the 5.0. The 5.0 is what's going to give meaning to the 8.0. Good God, almighty, do you see? So this is what I'm telling you Don't be in a hurry to get to the 8.0. Relish and embrace the 5.0. Because the 5.0 is going to give you context when you get to the 8.0. And this is why I told you at the beginning of this podcast sometimes you got to look back to see where you were, because that right there is going to give context and it's going to give meaning and it's going to give purpose and it's going to give a trust and it's going to give resilience and it's going to give persistence to where you are right now. Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing. I'm saying right now this is coming straight from the source. So for you, on this journey, this existence, this reality, if you knew you were going to get there, you would enjoy it. I'm here to tell you you're going to get there. You're going to get there. Oh, you're going to get there. You will get there Now. Will you get there when you think you're going to get there? Most likely probably not. People tell you all this stuff in the manifestation oh, you got to put a date in. I can manifest. Look, I haven't figured that out yet. At this point of awareness, I haven't figured it out. I'm not saying I haven't all figured it out. I do believe that time is less important than what you think it is. It didn't matter when you got there. People say, oh well, no, he died too soon, it happened too soon. What If I died when I was 10, if I died when I was 80,? What was the difference? Both of them ended in the same result. Do we see? It wasn't about when, it was about how. So when you're dead and gone and you have to leave here and you have to check out of this body, ask yourself how did I do it? How did I do it? It wasn't what you did, it was how you did it. It wasn't when you did it, it was how you did it. When I lived at the 5.0 version of me, how did I do it? Did I live in scarcity? Did I live in fear? 5.0 version of me. How did I do it? Did I live in scarcity? Did I live in fear, or was I able to use those lessons from learning from between 2.0 and 5.0? Was I able to experience this reality with just a little bit more fulfillment, a little bit more purpose, a little bit more living through my passions, or did I live through scarcity? Did I continue to let the trauma? Did I continue to let the abandonment? Did I continue to let the rejection? Did I continue to let the abandonment? Did I continue to let the rejection define me, or did I allow those things that used to define me? Did I allow them to give me definition? And when you get to this version, when you get to this level of awareness, you're going to start to live through your heart. And here's the beauty of it Once you live through your heart, the game's over. It's done, it's over. I'm not even playing this game anymore. I checked out a long time ago. No, don't get me wrong. Every once in a while I'll come back in. Every once in a while I'll get caught up in the karmic loops Every once in a while. There's some things that I got to learn. I got to really through in this universe, this divinely orchestrated universe. It's just trying to help me, to show me where I am living through my head and where I'm attached and where I'm living in scarcity and where I'm living in lack. Do we see I'm living in lack? Do we see? So for you, along this journey, I encourage you. I encourage you to speak life into yourself. I encourage you to trust and know that you're going to get there. I can encourage you to remember that if you could dream it, you could believe it. Then you would have to have the capabilities of achieving it. Walk in that energy. Know that, know that and don't worry about how. Focus on the now. Focus on what you can do right now. Focus on what you have right now. It's easy for us to look at what we don't have. I started to realize in life. I said, man, really the biggest thing that plagues us as human beings is we spend more energy focusing on what we don't have or what we can't do. We have been programmed. If you look at this matrix, if you look at this society, this is what it's designed to do. It is designed for you to look at what you don't have. It's designed for you to see where you're not. It's designed for you to show you how much ground you have to make up. Why do we not spend that same energy of just looking at what I do have? Look at where I am at, look at how far I've come instead of how far I have to go? It is a simple choice that we have to make. Nobody else can make this for you. I can look at it and say, dang, I missed 15 straight shots. Or you can look at it and say I shot that mother every time and I didn't care that I missed. I still showed up every single time and I shot it 15 times with those 15 misses. Y'all ain't trying to hear nothing I'm saying. So now you walk in a different energy. You walk in that infinite energy. You walk in that God energy. Something tells me the source, the creator, god, whatever you refer to it as, something tells me deep down, on a deep level, it doesn't have the capabilities of looking at lack. I'm going to go ahead and stop right there. I'm going to go ahead and stop right there because you're not trying to hear nothing. I'm saying right now If that which has created you, the creator, and you are the creation, and that has created you, that thing did not have the capability of having a lacking mindset, if it did, how in the world would it have been able to create you? Look at your cellular structure, look at the human body. The human body, in my opinion, from what I see, is the greatest technology that has ever been created within this known universe that we know. It is unbelievable. You can cut your hand, cut your wrist, and that doesn't belong inside of you. Your body will take over Each cell, each living universe, each living part of your body will say yo, we got it, we got it, we'll take it from here. I'm talking right now on a universal level. It doesn't matter what your belief system is. I'm just telling you right now this is universal. When you start to realize on a deeper level, on a deeper level, how divinely orchestrated everything is, without your knowing, without you saying I got to do this and I got to figure that out. You didn't have to do none of that, and somehow life is still working itself out, life is still taking care of things. We can just start with your physical body. So now here's the balance. I have to trust, but I also have to do. But you can't do without being so. Really, I just have to be, and if I be, that means I am, and if I am, I'm aligned. And if I'm aligned this is what we call harmony. The spirit and the mind were in alignment and the body was in alignment with it, and everything flowed just as it should, and spirit is able to live itself through itself, from the awareness of its highest vibration, its highest frequency, of its highest vibration, its highest frequency. So I just wanted to hop on here, I just wanted to do this podcast to give you a little bit of encouragement, to give you a little bit of my energy. Go ahead and listen to this 15 times if you have to. When days are hard and they're dark I have days just like that too. Sometimes the human takes over and it's like we sit here and worry about how, especially with the bigger the goal, especially the things that you overcome, and that's tied to guilt and shame and it's the fear of what if I don't accomplish this? What if it doesn't happen? Then I won't be enough, what if I don't have enough? I get it, I totally get it. I'm not going to sit here and tell you that I'm holier than thou and I'm not tell you that I'm holier than thou and I'm like no, I get it, I see what you're saying, but even in those moments I got to remind myself you got here, you made it here, you made it here. Look where you're at right now. You're here. This was the there compared to yesterday. That was the there. I'm there. I'm there right now. I'm at the top of the mountain compared to me 15 years ago. I'm at the top of the mountain compared to me eight years ago. I'm at the top of the mountain compared to me six years ago. But then, when I look at where I want to go and what I want to do, I'm at the bottom of the mountain and you start to see that this life was nothing more than a wave. It was like a wave. We had our crest, we had our peak, we had our valley, and it goes up and down, up and down, up and down. There's the wave. So this is why we got to sometimes ride the wave of life. Remember, I told you, spirit just wanted to see what it was like at the top and it wanted to see what it was like at the bottom so it could experience polarity. It just wanted to see what it was like, embrace it and trust and know. Ask yourself, what can I do differently in this moment to change the trajectory of where I say I want to go, if I say I want to lose weight, if I want to lose weight, if I want to get my finances on order, what am I doing right now? What am I doing right now that's in alignment with that? Am I tackling those parts of me that's afraid to look at my finances, that's afraid to hire an accountant, that's afraid to really have these tough conversations that look at my credit card debt, or am I continuing to sweep those under the rug? And if you are sweeping them under the rug, that's okay too. That just means that there's some more misalignment that needs to be tended to, and the universe will see to it. It will see to it that you tend to it. I'm telling you that you don't have to wait for the universe to do that. You can do it yourself. And then, for some reason, life then becomes an adventure. It becomes like this cool game of let me figure out what I can do, who I can become. Game of, let me figure out what I can do, who I can become. So, all in all, please know that you're going to get there. You're going to get there. Stop focusing on how and start focusing on now.
