• 0:27
  Hey, everybody. Good morning from the chicken
• 0:29
  coop. So I have a question for you
• 0:30
  today. Do you believe that you were put
• 0:33
  here on this planet to just exist?
• 0:37
  Do you believe that you were put here to succeed?
• 0:41
  Or maybe you believe you were put here to fail?
• 0:43
  I'm curious because when someone says to me, well do you what's
• 0:48
  the reason that you believe we're here on this planet?
• 0:51
  My first answer is to always, I mean I and I truly believe this,
• 0:55
  we are here to Co create with the universe, with God and to
• 0:59
  really manifest and live out our greatest version of our self,
• 1:03
  whatever that may be. And for all of us, it's
• 1:05
  different. But for so many people, they do
• 1:09
  not have that. They do not believe that.
• 1:11
  They believe that it's like a crapshoot.
• 1:14
  They believe that things are, you know, they come as they will
• 1:18
  and things might show up that way.
• 1:21
  Sure you we might have experiences that come out of
• 1:23
  nowhere. We didn't see that coming.
• 1:25
  You know, we have tragedies. Things happen to us.
• 1:28
  But it's not the fact that we all have tragedies.
• 1:31
  It doesn't matter how successful or how unsuccessful we are.
• 1:35
  We all have tragedies. We just have the ability to
• 1:38
  decide how we're going to show up with them and how it's going
• 1:41
  to affect us that make us greater or weaker in the
• 1:44
  process. So I'm asking the question of
• 1:47
  you guys today. Do you believe that you were put
• 1:50
  here for something other than just existing?
• 1:55
  And for my answer, it is 1000% true and you have to make a
• 2:00
  decision this week, the first week of January, to say to
• 2:05
  yourself, I'm here for this purpose, for this greater good,
• 2:09
  for this feeling, whatever it means.
• 2:10
  I mean, even we don't have to know our exact purpose, but we
• 2:13
  what we do have to know is that we want to live and show up a
• 2:16
  certain way for ourselves and for what we are working towards.
• 2:21
  Now, For me, I have a very strong belief that your life is
• 2:25
  a gift from the universe and God and what you do with it is your
• 2:28
  gift back. But often times we forget that
• 2:32
  and it's just life. I mean, that's what happens.
• 2:35
  You get so stuck in the routine of life that you don't realize
• 2:39
  that you are not cultivating the parts of it that you absolutely
• 2:42
  need to in order to be in touch with that and remind yourself of
• 2:47
  that. Because you're, like I said
• 2:48
  yesterday, you're not by yourself.
• 2:50
  And you have to recognize that how you cultivate this, how you
• 2:55
  work around this, how you take those beliefs and move them
• 2:58
  forward. Notice there's a theme this week
• 3:00
  where we're talking about we're moving those beliefs into our
• 3:03
  everyday matters. It absolutely matters.
• 3:07
  So if you believe you're just here to, you know, be born,
• 3:12
  grind it out, get a job, grind it out, make money, pay bills
• 3:16
  and then just die, well then your life is going to feel that
• 3:20
  way. And that feels pretty darn
• 3:23
  terrible if you ask me. I would.
• 3:25
  I don't believe that about my life, and I never have, even at
• 3:28
  the darkest of times. I've never believed something
• 3:30
  like that because it doesn't make any sense to me.
• 3:33
  That doesn't make any sense to me.
• 3:34
  What makes sense to me is that we are always supposed to be
• 3:37
  working towards something that is identifying who we are as
• 3:42
  people and bringing us to a higher level.
• 3:45
  And as we do that, we get better and better and better as souls
• 3:48
  and as people. And we cultivate ourselves and
• 3:50
  we feel more satisfied. And we recognize that, you know,
• 3:53
  we we often hear elderly people say things like it's the small
• 3:57
  stuff, it's all the small things, it's all the little
• 4:00
  stuff that we do. It's it's the appreciation of
• 4:04
  teeny tiny things that matter. And that's just because they
• 4:08
  recognize that there is gratitude and gifts that we can
• 4:12
  find in all of that and that the life is not supposed to be
• 4:15
  wasted or just felt that way. So today is the challenge of
• 4:20
  saying, well, what do you believe?
• 4:21
  Do you believe that, that that's part of it?
• 4:24
  Do you believe that you're, you know, supposed to reside in
• 4:27
  gratitude and find these paths that mean something to you?
• 4:31
  Or do you believe you're just here to grind it out and you
• 4:35
  know exist because it's way beyond existing?
• 4:39
  And the reason we're having this conversation today is because
• 4:42
  you have to identify that with yourself so that you can choose
• 4:46
  how you want to develop that. Most of us do it very
• 4:50
  unconsciously. We have these run behind the
• 4:52
  scenes. So when they we ask the
• 4:54
  question, we're like, well, yeah, I guess I do believe that.
• 4:56
  Well then now you know why you feel terrible a lot of the time
• 4:59
  because that's not a healthy belief system.
• 5:01
  To have a healthy belief system resides in optimism.
• 5:06
  It resides in the belief that there is so much more, there's
• 5:10
  so much more. And as the we grow spiritually
• 5:14
  and we tap into these things on a fundamental energetic level
• 5:18
  and we recognize it, then everything starts to change.
• 5:21
  So the question is, you know, what do you believe about it?
• 5:25
  OK, my friends, I will see you tomorrow.
• 5:29
  I hope you have a blessed day. Bye.
