- 0:27Hey, everybody. Good morning from the chicken
- 0:29coop. Today we're talking about
- 0:31magnetizing yourself. It seems like a very strange
- 0:35thing to talk about, doesn't it? Like maybe we're, I'm entering
- 0:37into the realm of Marvel Comics and we're going to start talking
- 0:40about how to become a superhero. Well, in a way, yes, because
- 0:44magnetizing yourself is an absolutely cool thing to do
- 0:48because you are essentially able to start to attract what it is
- 0:52that you're focused on. So when you magnetize yourself,
- 0:56all of a sudden your attraction is pulling it to you.
- 1:01Now magnetizing yourself is interesting because it could be
- 1:04done in a positive or negative. We all know that there's both
- 1:07parts of that magnet you can either repel.
- 1:10If you've ever played with magnets, you can either repel
- 1:12something or you can draw it right to you.
- 1:14So the way to think of this is, am I putting out the stuff that
- 1:19I want to attract, Am I focused more on that energy than on the
- 1:23other? Because whatever you are focused
- 1:26on the predominant amount of the time you attract and whatever
- 1:29you and then that goes for positive or negative.
- 1:32So really hear me say that if you're focused on negative all
- 1:34the time or fear all the time, you're going to attract more of
- 1:38it. So it's necessary to recognize
- 1:40you. This is attraction we are
- 1:42talking about today. So if we want to attract things,
- 1:45we have to magnetize ourselves for that.
- 1:48And in the process of magnetizing ourselves, things
- 1:51start to show up. But we because we want to make
- 1:53that pull to come in. So this should be the things
- 1:56that you are looking to have in your life, whether it's love,
- 2:00whether it's abundance in money or something, ideas, whatever it
- 2:06is that you are essentially looking to draw, to use to
- 2:10yourself. It is highly necessary, highly
- 2:13necessary to start thinking of it in terms of pulling towards
- 2:18you and magnetizing it in a way that says I am thinking about
- 2:23this as if it's done more than I am thinking about it not being
- 2:28done or not thinking about it at all.
- 2:30And being very ambivalent is just as as likely to attract
- 2:35nothing. Like, you're not going to
- 2:36attract what you want because you're not focused on it.
- 2:38When you're just when someone says, well, I'm neutral, great,
- 2:41you can be neutral all you want. But in your quest of being
- 2:44neutral, there's also that piece of it.
- 2:47You, you, you realize that, like, wow, I'm not really
- 2:50attracting anything. So you're just kind of there and
- 2:53that's fine. We should all do that sometimes.
- 2:55That's like the whole purpose of meditation, where you're just
- 2:57neutral. But for most humans, that
- 3:01neutrality doesn't work long term.
- 3:03And we are always attracting something.
- 3:06And for most of us, we spend a lot of time attracting what we
- 3:08don't want because we are so focused on the fear of not
- 3:12getting what we do want. We focus on what we don't want
- 3:15to try to protect us from having something happen.
- 3:18But in all that turns around, you end up with what you don't
- 3:22want. So the point is the focus.
- 3:26The point is recognizing that the magnetizing piece is
- 3:30necessary. So how do you magnetize
- 3:32yourself? Well, you have to start by
- 3:35controlling that mind process, that energy and saying, OK, if I
- 3:40have to set my watch, set my phone as a reminder that five
- 3:46times a day it's going to go off and give me a little rub there,
- 3:51You know, just like my Fitbit, If I'm sitting too long, my
- 3:53Fitbit will go, beep, beep, and it like vibrates on my arm and
- 3:56lets me know, get up and move, get up and move.
- 3:58So I know I should get up and move and I love that because
- 4:02maybe I've been sitting doing a graphic for too long or I've
- 4:04been writing too long and I'm just hunkered in and my body is
- 4:07going to get stiff if I don't get up and move.
- 4:09So it just lets me know get up and move, get up and move.
- 4:12Great reminder. But we can do that
- 4:14psychologically as well, where it's like, OK, check in, am I,
- 4:17am I focused on attracting what I want?
- 4:19Or am I focused on just having this be a certain way where I'm
- 4:25focused on the fear of not getting what I want?
- 4:28And that's the part that's so tricky, that being that certain
- 4:31way that we keep going back to my just so focused on the fear
- 4:34part of myself unconsciously. And again, some of this can be
- 4:37implicit and explicit thoughts, meaning the implicit thoughts
- 4:41you're not really even aware of and the explicit thoughts you
- 4:45are aware of, but you're not so controlled with them that you're
- 4:47great at it yet. And that's what this is about.
- 4:49You've got to make sure that you're working both sides of it
- 4:52in order for this to go in the right direction.
- 4:55So set yourself up with reminders.
- 4:58Put things on your phone screen, your iPad screen, your computer
- 5:03screen. Wear a string on your left or
- 5:07right hand so that when you look down you see the string and that
- 5:11reminds you to stay focused on what you the energy you want on
- 5:14magnetizing it. So I have a client that has a
- 5:18bunch of little magnets that stick together and you can make
- 5:20shapes out of these magnets and she keeps that right on her desk
- 5:26and she it's it's her reminder to what am I magnetizing today?
- 5:29Am I magnetizing what I want or am I magnetizing what I don't
- 5:32want And I love that because you can play with it.
- 5:35So figure out what are you magnetizing and I will see you
- 5:38all tomorrow. Have a blessed day my friends.
- 5:41Bye.
