I want you to look at this Sam timer and let this I want you to think about your
life the sand in the top of the glass represents the future the sand in the
bottom of the glass represents the past now Genoa we know what's in the past and
young we can't do anything about it you know what the trick is you don't
know how much sand is in the top of the glass you may think you have a lot you
might only have a little then again you may think you have a little and you
might have a lot when I was a little boy I was raised by my grandmother and I
don't know when I was little gaffer's she was probably 60 but as long as I can
remember gran would say I'll soon be gun-deer I'll soon be gone well you know
we loved her she was really an angel of God but we thought she was never gonna
go she lived to be 94 for 30-some years I'll soon be gone she didn't think she
had much time left she had 34 years left now about the same time I had a buddy of
mine Bob Yates he was just 16 and *** he run into the abutment of a bridge and
his life was snuffed out if you had asked him a half hour before how much
sandy had left he would have said at least a half a century he didn't have a
half an hour see the trick is we don't know how much sand we have left the
future we don't know the past it's gone now the only thing you can deal with is
what's right here right now and if you look the sand is always moving now think
of this you see I was working on that and then I was working on a graph I've
got here at my computer and I'm thinking at the time somebody said to hey have
you got a minute well they don't really want a minute do
you know if you're earning $50,000 a year a minutes 42 cents a half-hour is
$12.50 if we take that ahead a bit if you're earning $80,000 here a minute 67
cents half hours $20 during a hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year you
got a minute and then it cost you a dollar twenty-five a minute a half hours
thirty seven dollars and fifty cents so do you see if somebody said you want to
stop for a cup of coffee well if you're earning a quarter of a
million dollars a year a minute is two dollars and eight cents half hours sixty
two dollars and fifty cents and then of course you've got the coffee to pay for
on top of that so do you see the point is this this is all we've got right here
right now we don't know how much we have left in the future but we do know what
we've got now and I have found the people that win are the people who make
up their mind they're not gonna waste the minutes they're gonna be productive
they're gonna make it happen every minute I don't think you determine what
your purpose is I think you discover what your purpose is there's a
difference determining indicates deciding and I
don't think you decide I think if you go about it the right way you discover it
like there's some people that should be painting all day
they're great artists make Michelangelo was obviously a great artist it's great
sculptor I mean that was his purpose in his life well I believe my purpose is
doing what I'm doing your purpose is why you get out of bed in the morning do you
know why you get up well most people say well it's they're gonna work well that'd
be a good reason to stay in bed you know you say well everybody's doing it that
would be another reason to stay in bed if you're ever doing what everybody's
doing you're probably going in the wrong direction
your purpose is your reason for living what you want to do is sit down and
maybe take a pen and a pad and then ask yourself what do I really love doing now
you may have to spend a while at this you might get up an hour early every
morning and go sit under a tree somewhere if you're in a nice climate or
pick a favorite chair someplace where you're not going to be disturbed
and totally relaxed and say if I could spend my life doing something
what do I really love doing now since you don't ask yourself that question
every day it might take a while for this answer to come to the surface but it
comes to your consciousness and it may take a while you may have to do this
every morning for three months but it would be well invested the time I read a
poem one time I said I have only just a minute only 60 seconds and it was forced
upon me I can't refuse it I didn't seek it and I didn't choose it but it's up to
me to use it I must suffer if I lose it give a count if I abuse it it's only a
tiny low a minute but eternity isn't it anyone that has a goal and they're
moving towards it they're successful most people think that you're successful
if you have a lot of money quite often you have a lot of money if you're
successful but it isn't I wouldn't say mother Teresa has a lot of money okay
huh but she's a pretty successful lady so it's you so that barrier tizzies well
there's that there's a couple of them okay I think there's two barriers one is
our conditioning the conditioning that takes place in our subconscious mind
from the time were infants all we can do is act and talk like the people around
us that's why we learn their language we learned that there was ten languages
spoken in our home we learn ten languages without any trouble there's
usually one and that's the only one we ever learn and we grow older we think I
couldn't learn another language we could learn a hundred if we wanted to you can
do anything but I think we're conditioned we have a real strong
conditioning usually with not some very good ideas and then that that's the the
barrier that's inside is the one that's outside of us is our environment we have
a tendency to act like everybody around us and if you think about this it
doesn't make a lot of sense because if you study statistics 95 percent of the
people live their entire life and never lived the way they want to live you know
that 95 percent of the population in this country let's say in North America
okay the richest continent in the history of
the world they all work productively let's say for 40 of their 65
years okay and they'll end up with her to be any money there's gotta be
something wrong just my 5% of the people end up financially comfortable or
independent are you trying to depress this bump that's no actually I think
it's I think it's quite an exciting idea because you see the idea behind it is
that anybody can win anyone at all but if we start studying these statistics I
think we'll arrive at the conclusion geez I better start thinking for myself
rather than follow everybody most people they get a job they look
around to see how everybody else is doing their work and they start doing it
the same way they should stop and think I wonder if any of these people know
what they're doing is there a better way to do it but don't we have a need to fit
in I mean we don't want it we don't want to stand out we don't to get fired we
don't make waves exactly exactly just fall into line you
know take a number be like everybody around now that'd be great in the animal
kingdom but human beings aren't supposed to live that way I think we should make
a few waves we should maybe stand out be different not not for the sake of being
different okay but because we are different we all think different
thoughts and I believe we should start to think and build images in her mind of
what we'd like to do and then set out and do it okay that Merson did that
edison did that Marconi did that Samuel Morse did that *** Minister fuller did
that we could go on and on and on okay we're different they stood out they
made a few waves should seek failures see if you're playing it safe you're not
gonna win if you're playing it safe like that all say you know you were talking
your little girl better to be safe than sorry well that's a bunch of crap it's
not better be safe than sorry it's by trying things that you figure out how
far you can go you've got to get outside the box like it's reported Edison tried
3000 ways before he built the incandescent light he said he didn't
fail 3,000 times he said there was 3,000 different steps to building a light bulb
well there's different steps to get to where you're going and I really do treat
winning and losing exactly the same I do not let it upset me do you
think that's a big part of why you're so successful well it's part of why I enjoy
it yeah I think it is because I try anything like if if I'm into an idea the
idea of losing never enters my mind see I have worked with giants I had the good
fortune of working with Sir Edmund Hillary he was the first man to stand on
top of the world and I worked with him on three different occasions and the
only difference in that Hillary and Bob Proctor is in his his size now he's gone
now but he was a big man he shook hands with me his hand wrapped right around
mine I felt like Oh dwarf you know and and talked into him
like it never entered his mind he wouldn't get to the top of the mountain
but he failed in 1951 he failed in 1952 it wasn't until 1953 that he got to the
top of the mountain no people had died for centuries trying to do that he said
I knew if I could see it in here I got to hold it out here still a man wrote
that in the book you can see it in your head you can hold
it in your hand and that's right and if you're not prepared to lose
you're never gonna win because you're always playing it safe and there's no
there's no reward in that it select the person who is already doing something
that you'd like to do get to know that person go to the experts for advice
don't ask the first nextdoor your mother father brother the guy works beside you
because they don't necessarily know there's no point in asking a person how
to earn a lot of money if they're only earning 10,000 a year they don't know
they knew they'd probably be earning a lot it's like don't go to a sick doctor
if you want to get healthy okay so you find someone that you can go to for
advice get a real good book and lock into that book and start to study it
like I bet this one looks like a Bible you know but this is Napoleon Hills book
Think and Grow Rich I've been reading this thing now for 23 years I'll
probably read it for another 23 years I get another good book that I brought
over here today it's the power of your subconscious mind I'm
not getting the commission for selling this the author's dead now he's been
gone for a couple of years but dr. Joseph Murphy wrote this book the power
of your subconscious mind and that's probably one of the best books that
you're ever going to find because you're gonna learn something about your mind
when you read this book okay now I read a lot of books I've got probably a
thousand bucks sitting in my den at home in my library but the one that I carry I
carry it everywhere I go and I read it all the time is Think and Grow Rich I
never stopped reading it where's the value for you to reread that rebound I
mean you must you must know it well enough that I think I could probably
recite it verbatim but the secret is I once read in the book where it said when
you read a good book through okay the second time you don't see something in
it that you didn't see before you see something in yourself that wasn't there
before you see when I read this I created a greater awareness look at
these two men do you know who they are most people don't they're just a couple
of ordinary guys one they're both gone now but one was an ordinary beekeeper in
Auckland New Zealand and the other a Sherpa guide from over around Nepal now
there's Mount Everest you know for thousands of years people
have tried to get to the top of Mount Everest
people died doing it it was believed it couldn't be done
people tried but they didn't know how and so they quit there's a closer look
at the mountain and where they placed their flag they planted that flag in the
mountain now this is the two of them after they come down the mountain and
you know something when they started they did not know how they didn't know
how to get to the top of the mountain and that's what stops most people
because they don't know how as little kids we'd go mummy daddy I want this and
they say no how are you gonna do that well as a little kid you don't know how
to do it but they did it in 1953 on the 29th of May they were the first two to
get to the top of that mountain they stood right on top of the world you know
there's been over a thousand people do it since then I watched a young woman on
Canadian television being interviewed not very big she had just come back from
going to the top of Mount Everest and the reporter asked her they said how
does it feel now that you conquered the mountain she didn't conquer the mountain
that mountain can't be conquered we conquered the limitations that are with
in ourselves did this line that's called the terror barrier yeah jumping out
isn't it and on the other side of the terror barrier is something we call
freedom and you know very few people get through that terror barrier it's rather
sad freedom is available to everyone there isn't anyone that could not live
the way they want to live why don't they why don't they they don't know and they
don't even know they don't know now I'm going to show you why people experience
buyer's remorse when they buy something really want and then they back away
where they going to move and they don't they go to change jobs they don't they
go to move to another city and they don't why fear causes them to stay where
they are there's the individual the X represents the unknown factor the
paradigm now there's a power flowing into this individuals mind and they can
make anything out of it they want remember we said we had the ability to
choose what do they choose they choose thoughts that are in harmony with the
paradigm now here's an important point the paradigm controls the vibration of
this thing we call our body our body is a molecular instrument that's really
what it is it's a mass of molecules and a very high speed of vibration the
vibration that the body's in on a conscious level we call feeling when a
person says they feel this way or they feel that way what they're really doing
is describing the vibration they're in now they choose thoughts that harmonize
with the vibration they're in so they feel comfortable they may not like the
results but they're comfortable now let's move ahead let's take a look here
those people are getting X tape results and they don't like it you know what the
problem with them they're in bondage these people are locked up you know
paradigm is like keeping a person in a prison only there's no locks on the door
they can open the prisoner walk out into freedom anytime they want and they don't
they keep getting the same results over and over and over again they're in
bondage now let's go ahead here's the same person X type conditioning X type
vibration the power is flowing into them and for some strange reason from left
field bone in comes a Y type idea what is the Y type idea the Y type idea
represents anything that you might want to do that you're not doing it might be
moved to another city changed jobs sell the house buy the farm whatever it may
be ask the little girl for the date ask the guy to go to lunch go make the sale
buy what you want go where you want to go that's the Y idea but as long as the
Y idea is just in the conscious mind it's just going to be an intellectual
exercise it's never going to happen so how do we make it happen well that's
when everything goes haywire here we are here same person okay the power flows in
now what do they do they got the Y type idea now for some strange reason they
know that they've got to get emotionally involved if they're going to act on that
idea they don't understand what's going to happen but clearly understand this
your central nervous system is the most complex electrical system in the
universe the central nervous system is mind boggling
it would make the electrical system in a supercomputer look like a toy
now the second you take the idea from your intellect and impress it upon the
subject of mind that's when all hell breaks loose because the body moves in
to an X dot X Y vibration it's not in the X vibration not the one that we're
comfortable with me now like your results but we're comfortable no on a
conscious level everything's going crazy on a conscious level we experienced dote
the dope turns into an emotion called fear and that fear is expressed through
the body as anxiety see that person is getting emotionally involved to move
head do you know what happens they hit that terror barrier and they bounce off
it and right back into bondage and they're so relieved to get back there
they're back where they're comfortable they've cancelled the sale they've
decided not to move they're going to stay in the job that they don't like at
least they're comfortable now that's not a very good way to live and you know
something that's something everybody experiences if they're going to grow
you're going to hit that terror barrier see the terror barrier is going beyond
where you're at going to a new level I'm going to tell you something when I set a
goal yep if if it doesn't scare and excite me at the same time I know I'm
going in the wrong direction now I also understand that my paradigm
is going to try and get me to bounce back to where I was it doesn't want me
to move ahead I don't want to live there I lived there for the first twenty six
years of my life and for the last 50 I've had a phenomenal life and it just
keeps getting better and I want you to do the same thing understand what I've
just said I'm gonna back this up they got emotionally involved in the Y
idea that moved their body into a different vibration on a conscious level
they're experiencing some crazy stuff they start to doubt their ability we'll
never be able to pay for it they experience fear the fear expresses
itself as anxiety and *** you bounce off that terry barrier and you're right
back oh I might not be earning much here but I know what it is I I would love to
move there but I'm comfortable here I think I'll just stay here these people
are acting like they have a contract I'll live forever and they don't you
know what to do say I'm gonna get rid of all that I
understand it's there but I don't want any part of it and I'm gonna go crashing
right through that terror barrier now does that get rid of the X energy no
that's energy is still there you see I don't least Rover into freedom you made
the move you did it and if you continue to feed the right information into your
mind keep feeding that why idea keep getting
emotionally involved in Hawaii idea you're there you're on the road keep
doing that you're gonna find that the paradigm is going to change and it'll
just all go away and you know where you're living in freedom you're living
where you want to live buyer's remorse is when you cancel the sale buyer's
remorse is when you stop just before you buy what you really want before you go
for the thing that's going to change your life and you know it it's not
moving to the other city it's not starting the business of your dreams
it's not stepping out and betting on yourself
that's a terror barrier that's causing that and if you don't learn to go
through the terror barrier I need to tell you something you can stay right
where you are for the rest of your days that's not a good place to be
what did joseph campbell say so true the cave you fear to enter holds the
treasure you seek your vision is how you're going to execute your purpose
your purpose is why you're living your vision is how you're going to execute it
so your vision would be a long-range vision of a whole bunch of things that
you would love to do the guy of all kinds of things I want to do I'm when
I'm in the air I spend almost all my time hardly ever watch a movie or
anything like that I spend almost small many time thinking and I think how can I
do what I'm doing better how can I do it in a bigger way
like we started streaming club we have a streaming club where I stream every week
and we're going to expand on that and that was the result of me going into I
went into Tel Aviv to Cyprus to Melbourne to Auckland to Los Angeles and
back to Toronto and the people all saying oh I just spent a little time
with you and it's that kind of *** be able to spend time with them but I had
to catch another plane and so the idea of the streaming Club came to me so that
was an idea it was part of my vision and I acted on it immediately
so your vision is a long-range view of all the things that you'd like to do
that are all on purpose every one of them would be helping you execute your
purpose
