0:27
Hey, everybody. Good morning from the chicken
0:29
coop. Somebody asked me the other day
0:32
what's the major thing that makes me stay optimistic or
0:37
happy? And I've had to think about it
0:40
for a second because it was a question I hadn't really, you
0:43
know, been asked in quite some time.
0:45
And I was like, I guess it's truly the fact that I do believe
0:48
in magic. And they started laughing and
0:51
they said, you believe in magic. And I said, yeah, I actually do
0:54
believe in magic, but not maybe the kind of magic that Houdini
0:57
did where it was illusion. I believe in the magic of the
1:01
universe, where it is absolutely undeniable that it takes place,
1:06
but we can't explain it and we have no idea what.
1:11
It happened. We just know that it was a
1:12
miracle and we put phrases out like, you know, oh, I I I'm
1:16
shocked by the outcome. It was a miracle or you know,
1:20
it's inexplicable. We don't have any idea.
1:22
We just know it was the best case scenario or you know, just
1:27
seeing things show up where they go from nothing to something
1:32
and. All and it's there.
1:34
We're surrounded by them all the time.
1:36
We just don't notice them because we get so caught up in
1:39
our realism, in what we see in front of us.
1:42
And we are so anchored into our bodies that we forget that the
1:45
magic is everywhere, all around us, and we forget that we can
1:49
partake in it at any point in time.
1:51
We just have to believe. Like what?
1:53
What is required to have That is the belief, and it is true.
1:58
Those do not believe in the magic, never find it.
2:02
We get exactly what we focus on. We have heard it over and over
2:05
and over again throughout our lives and you get what you focus
2:09
on. And if you don't focus on good
2:10
things, you won't get good things.
2:13
And I am happy to focus on miracles.
2:15
I got to be honest, I'm happy to focus on magic.
2:19
I'm happy to focus on the unseen great things because it makes me
2:24
feel good. Let's sum it up in a really easy
2:26
way. It makes me feel good.
2:28
And if our emotions are a guidance system and if our
2:31
emotions. Are the thing that help us know
2:33
what way to move closer or further towards our outcomes and
2:38
goals or just, you know, living a great life.
2:42
Then we have to recognize that we have to tap into that system
2:48
and really be clear on the fact that if I want to drive to Happy
2:53
Town and I'm focused on Sad Town, how the heck am I ever
2:56
going to get to Happy Town? It just doesn't work.
2:59
So. In in the big vortex of it all,
3:03
believe in the magic is is simple.
3:06
But well, how do you do that when you're so stuck on what's
3:09
in front of you? What's the reality of what's in
3:11
front of you? And the truth is there are
3:15
things around us, everywhere that are little tiny miracles
3:18
and we just don't pay attention to them.
3:21
The forces of the unseen. You know, I've said, talked
3:25
about this before and I will talk about it till I'm blue in
3:27
the face. The power of having a little
3:29
simple seed. So, you know, all lessons out
3:32
here come from the farm. I love to bring them back to you
3:36
because they're just so big. But even the fact that, you
3:39
know, there's an egg and we'll use an egg or a seed, whatever
3:43
it is, it just looks like an in it, in any object.
3:46
Here it is. Oh, there it's just sitting
3:47
there, right? There's nothing to it.
3:49
But inside of it, it's pure potential.
3:52
Inside of it, it's everything if it.
3:54
Gets in the right conditions. You know, in the case of an egg
3:57
with a chicken, 21 days later we have baby chicks.
4:01
And the first time I actually watched the chickens do that, I
4:05
was just blown away. I could not believe that that
4:07
was the case. It was just like, OK, she's
4:10
going to sit on this. It's going to be a period of
4:12
time. And before you know it, we're
4:13
going to have little baby chicks.
4:15
And you know what? 21 days on the dot and we had
4:18
little baby chicks and it was the best feeling to see it take
4:21
place. And I can tell you without
4:24
question that there is no no doubt in my mind that there is a
4:30
big giant piece of my heart that says miracles are so present.
4:34
Miracles are just there all the time, and you just have to look
4:38
for them and believe in that. So when I see those little
4:40
chicks, I'm like, they're little miracles.
4:42
When I see little plants pop up from seeds that I throw in the
4:45
ground, guess what? They're little miracles.
4:47
They know what to do. I don't have to tell them what
4:49
to do. They just go off and become the
4:51
best versions of themselves they can be.
4:53
And that is the best news of all.
4:55
So you've got to seek them out. That's the big thing.
4:58
You've got to seek them out. Most people don't think seeds
5:01
are miracles. I just choose to.
5:04
And guess what? That makes my life more full.
5:06
That lake makes me happier. That lets me believe in the
5:10
happiness and lets me ultimately become a better person because I
5:15
believe in the happiness. So go find your miracle.
5:19
Apparently he agrees with me. And find those little things in
5:24
the magic. Go find the magic.
5:26
Seek the magic as much as you can and you'll find it.
5:30
All right, my friends, I hope you have a blessed day and I'll
5:32
see you tomorrow. Bye.
