How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
I think there are several aspects. One is... Unfortunately, so many people give their agency away. And what I mean is that they look outside of themselves for something that will guide them or that there's some cosmic presence out there that's going to intervene. And in fact, the first sentence of the book, as you know, is, the universe doesn't give a f*** about you.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And the reason is, is because the universe has no f***s to give. And the point is that so many of us, and I included, early in my life, I looked for external affirmation. People who would say, well, what you're doing is good, or that's right, or geez, you did incredible things, I like you. off with the goal of sort of making me feel OK about myself.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And in some ways, this very much relates to that, because the answer is only you have the power to make yourself happy. As Epictetus has said, and many other Stoics, You may not be able to control your circumstance, but you can control how you react to your circumstance. And in many ways, that's the truth about happiness. And also, of course, how you look at the world.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
So I'm sure you've been in the situation where you've shared with a loved one, a family member, geez, you know, I want this to happen. God, I'm so excited about this. I think this is a great idea. And then they'll say something like, No, that's stupid. Why would you do that? Or you can't do that. And, you know, obviously that's very hurtful and for many people deflating.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
But if you have your own internal compass that guides you and you have a vision of what you want to do and you do some fairly straightforward practices, but it's not as if it's a one and done. It's a process. I think the other thing people get confused about manifestation is that there's a timeline here where it works out exactly the way you want. And there's not, and you have to be patient.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
One of the things I think that causes suffering for a lot of people is attachment. And this is attachment to outcome. When everything is focused on an outcome, if it doesn't manifest or occur the way you wish, you're very disappointed and you're upset. The reality is most of the positive things about goals is actually the journey. It's not necessarily the destination.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
The same is true of manifesting. The other reality is that sometimes things don't manifest the way you want. And there are reasons for that. And some of them can be very complex or not straightforward. So the idea is how do I use the tools I have to maximally increase the likelihood of my intention manifesting?
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
There are no guarantees, but how do you use your brain, if you will, to bring about your intention? And I think that's what this is really about.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
Well, I think that is a challenge, especially in modern society, because we have so many distractions. So I think that's a critical aspect of regaining your attention. But it takes effort, but it's readily available. And once you reclaim your attention, then you can direct your attention. And then you can direct your intention inward to impact your subconscious.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And what happens is when you have an intention and you use your attention to embed your intention into your subconscious, then the process of these cognitive brain networks, which are parts of the brains that work together in different circumstances, then it empowers them. And as I was mentioning, as an example, we have this thing called the salience network.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
So once you are able to embed your intention there, then that creates this process on a subconscious level where you're looking both internally and externally for... events that actually will make you manifest your intention. And this is also where your attention network gets empowered, if you will.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
Because once you are searching around, finding those things that will connect you to manifest your intention, then that will activate your attention network, so you then become focused on that. And it will then downplay your default mode network. And also the nature of what we call your executive control network will actually make it manifest, if you will.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
Because when your executive control network is empowered, it is actually the to-do part of your brain. It makes it happen. So once you embed your intention, That then activates your salience network, which then empowers your attention network, which then allows your executive control network to actually make that intention manifest. Maybe that was all confusing.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
Yes, exactly. And the thing is, in the book, there's actually a six week program that goes through every aspect of this, which is, you know, one, understanding what you have been manifesting, how inefficiently that may be, and why you're doing that, and then actually clarifying your intention, and then actually embedding your intention. Yeah.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
One of the problems that I have is that I have a tendency to say, I have to do this, and I'm going to do it now. And I pick something that's really hard and complicated, and I go, I'm going to do it. And invariably, if you do that, you almost always fail. The most important thing is baby steps. And you look at a book, as an example, by B.J. Fogg, which is called, I think, Tiny Habits.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And then there's another one called Atomic Habits. But if you look at changing little things in your life where they actually become habits, in some ways that's learning how to embed your intention. If you're doing just one thing, okay, and you're making it happen, that in and of itself is a process of focusing your intention.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And creating these little habits can be extraordinarily powerful because what happens is when you're not directing your attention, then you're wandering around all the time. And once you start doing things that require this effort, you realize how powerful that is to make things manifest. And you start small and then you move to larger things.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
I think the other thing is you have to give up attachment to the outcome because, again, And this may sound strange, but in some ways we're talking about the difference between fear and love.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And what I mean by that is attachment to an outcome in some ways creates anxiety and stress, which is a manifestation of engagement of your sympathetic nervous system, which fundamentally is a fear reaction, okay? So if you're attached to that, you're always worried about that. I have to get there, I have to get there. Yet the very nature of that internal dialogue is actually working against you.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And that's not to say having a goal isn't important. It's to say that goal becomes so prominent that that's the only way. Yet we know from manifestation that it can take different paths and turns. And in some ways, it is smarter than you are about knowing the best way for something to happen. As an example, let's say you wanted... let's say, a different house.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And you created this whole narrative about that. And the narrative being though, I want this bigger house because I have a large number of children, it has a larger yard, and not just I want this house to impress people. Again, two different perspectives.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
But if you go through all of that and you say, I want it in this place, in this neighborhood, and I want it this big and dah, dah, dah, dah, dah. And you go through this whole exercise and then suddenly another opportunity comes up, which is a completely different type of house than you imagine. But then once you get into it, you realize, actually, that was a much better choice for me.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
for all these different reasons. Let's say, oh, it turned out that the school, the best school in the area was there, and that's where my children will go. And that's a much better than the place I had initially picked. Because your subconscious is sorting through all this different information that's at a subconscious level, so you don't appreciate it.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And so when you get a different alternative, you may sit there, that's crude, I wanted this, why didn't that happen? Well, there are all sorts of other things that were going on there that you weren't aware of. and that in some ways your subconscious actually guides you sometimes to a better choice.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And I think that's exactly right. And this is the nature of synchronicity, which I talk about in the book, or serendipity, if you want to call it that. is that oftentimes the way these events occur, again, on a conscious level, we don't understand why they occur, but they occur for a reason that actually is much more powerful than what our initial goal was in terms of our manifesting.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And that's some of the extraordinary things about it is that once you are able to unleash this incredible power that you have within, and embed your intention, which I talk about these techniques in the book, is this almost gives a direct line into your subconscious, which allows it, and I think I use the example of a bloodhound.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
You give it a mission or a scent, and the subconscious bloodhound starts going around looking at the circumstances. I'm sure you've been at a party and there's a lot of noise, but if you hear your name, you immediately turn to it, right? Because it's deeply embedded in your subconscious. The same is true when you let the bloodhound loose.
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
As an example, there was a project I'm working on right now. And again, I use these techniques of manifesting. And I was at a coffee shop. And again, very loud, but a fellow about two tables over started talking about something that exactly related to this project. And, you know, I turned and I actually went over and introduced myself and we're working on a project together now, right?
Dhru Purohit Show
How to Manifest Your Dreams and Work Past Self Doubt in 2025
And this is how this works. Because on a subconscious level, this bloodhound is always looking around to make serendipity or synchronicity happen. And that's the way it works.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
All right.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Yes.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
I'm just thinking, is this what women deal with? I know. Is this what women deal with?
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
It's interesting, right?
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Voles?
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
That's a beautiful question. How does somebody believe something is possible when they haven't created it for themselves? It's possible for me to make a million dollars or possible for me to become financially free when I've never created it and I've always been broke. There's two ways to do that. Number one, people think that it's very difficult to get there and it's actually much easier.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Your body and your mind and your soul are very compliant. if you say something over and over again and it's so simple like i don't want to over complicate spirituality if you say something a mantra over and over again even if you're faking it in the beginning your body, your mind and your soul will comply with that vibration.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And then you will do actions that will be closer to that vibration and they will reinforce each other. So what I do literally every day is I just ask myself, what is the highest vibration I need to get to? I see the delta of where I'm at now and where I need to get to. And I just keep hitting that point over and over and over again. incessantly until all of me complies with it.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And it happens every time. How do you hit that point when you're feeling depressed or depleted or down? That brings me to the second thing. Every single week, I try to find people who have already achieved what I'm trying to achieve and spend time with them, add value to them and serve them. Because Kabbalah explains there's a universal law.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
If you add value to someone or serve them in a way that makes their life better, You draw from them their positive qualities, traits, and vibration. So there's something that I want from Lewis, meaning what do I want? All I want from you is the consciousness you've already created. I want the vibration you've already achieved in your life.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
I want the real wisdom because wisdom and consciousness is the one thing I can take from you that doesn't take away from you but adds to you. That doesn't ask of me. It adds to me. It does. Because if I become one more person that learns from you, the universe then replenishes you with even more wisdom and energy.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
So as you grow your audience, your wisdom increases because your audience craves more through you. And so the creator bestows upon you much more wisdom and energy. And that's the value of growing your audience. And I'll tell people on social media, people are growing their audience because they think, well, that's how I monetize. Or that's how I become famous. And the ego gets in.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
the only intention you should have for growing your audience is you now have all these mini vessels which are craving your wisdom so what happens is it forces the creator to give you more wisdom you become a greater channel and that should be our intention for growing our audience yeah how do i serve my community a deeper way correct it's all about service it's all about the customer all about service and when you have that mindset everything opens up and grows
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
That's a great question. One of the things I've learned is it doesn't matter how long you've been spiritual or you've been working on something or what your past experience has been. Every test you go through is sent to you by the universe that is exactly on your level. The challenge of your opponent is exactly equal to where you're at in order to get you to your next level.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And the only reason the next level isn't comfortable is because it's not your current level it's a level that you're not familiar with so of course you don't see it of course it's illogical of course it's dark and so what i realized in this year this has been probably one of my most transformational years is that i am such a perfectionist. I'm sure maybe you can relate. You look perfect, man.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
You got perfect outfit. Everything's like put together, man. You look good. Oh, thank you. I am such a perfectionist that everything I do, I've always felt has to be the best. And this was the year I realized that part of why I'm trying to always be the best is is I don't want to let other people down.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
I have to kind of give off this persona because I'm representing spirituality, and I don't want to make spirituality look bad. So I have to have everything put together.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Correct. I can't be sloppy externally or internally. But what I realized was that what that was causing was a lot of guilt and shame every time I fell short of the mark I needed to be at or the expectations I put on myself. And then what was happening was the guilt and the shame was creating much more negativity than all the things I was trying to prefer.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
so guilt and shame lowers your vibration more than any other mistake you make people make mistakes like i don't know let's say you're in a relationship and you say something to your to your spouse or to your girlfriend or boyfriend that hurts them or upsets them and you feel bad about it that was one moment in time where you created a little negative energy but the guilt and shame that we carry after making a mistake is
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
a million times the negative energy because it's constant every second you hold on to guilt and shame is another moment you're injecting negative energy so the test isn't the mistake you make it's the guilt and shame you have afterwards so how do you remedy that and this was my biggest lesson it was taking the pressure off of myself of trying to appear as someone that's perfect and spiritual
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And allowing myself just to be myself everywhere I went. And I can't tell you how freeing that was, but at the same time, it created so much instability in other people because everyone's like, wait a minute, this was the David we knew. And now what's this? I said, no, this is today a little bit more of the real me.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And now I'm actually building a new foundation in my life that's much more authentic to who I am. How so?
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
there are people whose approval i wanted so badly and i would i knew i know i mean look i i i i connected with your energy and i feel like we we share so many similar qualities i know exactly what somebody needs to hear to feel comfortable sure i know what what buttons to stay away from i know how to talk to them in a way that can just make them feel really good and comfortable and i learned that many times i'm killing myself or sacrificing myself or i'm being inauthentic to just make them feel comfortable
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
So now I'm just learning to be me and still be a giver, but to be in the way that maybe makes them uncomfortable in the moment. But I'm being true to myself. And these examples have been happening more and more. It happens with my parents, happens with my friends. It happens with business partners and colleagues. I'm just learning to just show up as me versus who I think they want me to be.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
It's beautiful. What do you think people are getting wrong about manifestation today? What are people getting wrong about manifestation today? I think there's a prevailing belief system. that we need to suffer to be successful. And that's incorrect. I think there's so much grind culture that's being thrown out there. And by the way, you do have to work hard and you do have to work consistently.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
But 99% of it is your belief system about what it takes to manifest. If you believe you must suffer to be successful, then that is the destiny you are creating. You will be successful, but you will only do it after you suffer. Elon Musk has the same hours in the day as we do. He thinks it's easy to colonize Mars.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
He thinks it's as easy to colonize Mars as we do, you know, maybe preparing a cup of coffee. Sure. Because he thinks it's easy to colonize Mars, that consciousness creates a vessel that draws in the right engineers, that draws in the right ideas, that draws in the right lawmakers to change the laws to satisfy him.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Of course, there are challenges, but he's loving even the challenges to an extent where it all seems easy. If I think something is hard or impossible, then I literally call in the entire universe to create a movie for me that makes it hard and impossible. There are people who every relationship they're in is a drama. It's difficult. It's hard.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Every city I go to, I ask them, is dating hard in this city? They all say yes. They say, I say, which city is the hardest? They say, oh my God, I'm in New York. It's so hard to date here. I'm sure it's easier in Los Angeles. People in Los Angeles say it's impossible to date here. I'm sure it's easier in New York. Everyone always says it's harder wherever they're at. Why is that?
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Because they haven't been successful yet in their own city. They haven't been successful in their own city. And if I say it's hard to date, then I don't have, it doesn't reflect poorly upon me the fact that I'm single. So I will tell everybody this narrative, it's hard to date, so that they don't judge me and I don't judge myself, then I can't find a man or woman. It's not me, it's everyone else.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Everyone else, it's the city. It's the energy here. Everyone in LA is so superficial. But the truth is, even if everyone in LA was superficial, if you earned your soulmate, that one person would appear right at your door. Think about it. There are serial killers in prison who are married. Crazy. They found their soulmate.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
If someone in a maximum security prison who has a reputation of a serial killer can find their soulmate, I'm sure you can too in Los Angeles.

Exactly what you just said. When your consciousness and belief systems and energy is in the right place, then you will be guided. Your legs will start moving in the right direction. Your profile on a dating app algorithmically will change. People will feel your energy. People will find your profile at the right time and feel called to match with you. All of that comes from your vibration.

The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
I talk about products on a shelf, right? So one of the things that we talk about in our company is that the energy of the founders
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
So Mary Ruth and I, our consciousness down to the executives, down to the directors, to the managers and to the associates, all of us, our energy needs to be of such a high vibration of an unlimited mindset in order for energy to flow from the creator through us to the product. And then people feel that product on the shelf and they don't know why they like it.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
They just say it's good branding, right? But they feel something in the bottle. And then that's what they should feel when they consume it, when they take it, and then the energy shifts. And here's the thing. In your company, if you have one person who's toxic or you have one person who has a limited mindset, they are clogging the pipes of energy flowing down to the product level.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
So one of the things that I do, I have very little business experience, but from the spiritual side, I'm always checking in with the employees. Where's their mindset at? I once went to my head of sales and I said, hey, in my walk this morning, so every morning I walk and I talk out loud to the universe in the form of prayer. Prayer is just a technology to expand your vessel.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
People think prayer is something you do to bribe God to make you more comfortable, but there's no bribing God. God is a perfect force. Prayer is a technology to transform our vessel. to increase the frequency to allow more energy in. So every morning I'll talk out loud to the universe. And what's the best way to pray for miracles or abundance in our life? Any way that makes you comfortable.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
The way I do it is I walk and I talk out loud in the morning before everyone's awake. Some people like to be still. Some people like to do it in their head. I like to talk out loud, something very powerful about it. In the first five minutes of prayer, all these negative forces will attack you to try to distract you not to do it. And you'll think it's not working.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
You'll want to get to your phone and you'll want to quit. I always say you got to go past the first five minutes and then you break through kind of a miracle zone. And then when you talk out loud to the universe, your words become a vessel for energy to come in. And so ideas, my best ideas, best product ideas have come on these walks. And I will talk out loud and these ideas will come.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And I had an idea and a vision for a revenue number for my head of sales. I went to him, this guy's got 40 years experience. I said, hey, I think we can get, whatever it was, 100 products into Whole Foods. This was right when we first got into Whole Foods. 100 SKUs? 100 SKUs. Holy cow. We had 100. I said, I think we can get all 100.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Today we have about 300, but I said we can get all 100 into Whole Foods. And he looked at me, he started laughing. He's like, 40 years experience. I said, we need to aim for two this year to get into Whole Foods. And that's how it works. And we can get to four next year, whatever. That's a limiting belief, though.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Based on statistics and history, which is what most people use to form their belief systems. Most people aren't going to Mars also based on history. Exactly. The people who are changing this world are people who are not looking at history as a way to forge their belief systems. They're looking at something bigger, more divine, which is endless.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
And they're drawing these belief systems from a higher place. So I said, look, you have the experience, I don't. But as a founder, You know, in the last eight years, we've been doing this together. As a founder, I do get ideas and thankfully, you know, we do control this company. So I want you to really be open to this idea. And we had this back and forth to know it's impossible.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
I said, I said to him, I said, listen, I want you just to be open to it. He's like, OK, we'll be open to it. Something happened on a call at Whole Foods, and they said one of their brands wasn't doing well. Manufacturing started to malfunction, and a whole shelf became open. Lo and behold, that year, I think we got 75 products. Wow. Never happened before in the history of Whole Foods.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
We shot up to be one of their number one brands. And I think today, we're at almost 120 or 130, somewhere up there. And this all happened in one year. And every year I go back to the team and I say, guys, and this happens in every department. Remember what we thought could happen. Remember what we saw visually. And if we saw it and we feel it, it means it exists and we have to be open to it.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
At the very minimum, I need you to be open to it.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
In a world of possibilities, if it was possible for us to get 100 SKUs in Whole Foods, what would need to happen? You just opened up their mind to bypass their old limited belief system. That's a great way of framing it. Yeah, yeah. I love that. I love that.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Yeah.
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
So I made all this money in the stock market early on because I had a lot of desire, a lot of energy. I just didn't know where to put it. And so I started to trade and it started to do really well. But that's when my life started to get out of control as a teenager. And I became a gambler. I started to... Really? Oh, yeah. I started playing poker eight hours a day. Oh, man. I did that back in...
The School of Greatness
The Science Of Manifestation: How To Transform Your Energy To Change Your Reality
Oh, yeah. Ten years, too. In college, just, like, poker until 4 a.m. Until 4 a.m. Sometimes I'd go into a casino on, like, a Sunday and come out on a Tuesday. Oh, man. And you wouldn't see daylight. I was, like, playing, like, $15 hands with my college buddies. Not casino life, but, yeah. With that, I mean... it's never enough, so casino life was the next thing.
The School of Greatness

And so I was doing that and I realized why am I like, I just kept feeling more and more drained. You got the highs and then you feel low. And once I started to learn Kabbalah, I started to realize that the highs and the lows were, I was drawing energy. but I didn't create the vessel to hold this energy. Gambling, drugs, alcohol, sex, all of these things draw energy. You're drawing God.

You're drawing the universal force of creation. the reason why it ends up causing chaos is there's no vessel to hold this energy so you short circuit and what does a short circuit look like there's a flash of light and then there's darkness but the flash is very bright that flash is very addictive so most people

They draw energy, but there's no vessel to hold it, which we can explain what that means, the creative vessel. There's no vessel to hold it. They feel this flash, and then there's darkness. There's emptiness. There's addiction. Because they may not know spiritual laws, they'll go right back to more flashes to feed the addiction.

The way we draw energy to us is first... to be clear about your belief system of what you deserve to receive and what you're meant to receive. How do you get clear on what you deserve and are meant to receive? Whatever your desires are, it means you are meant to receive them at some point. Don't question that.

So if you actually had to write down all your desires, these desires, the Creator gave you these desires, so you go out and manifest them.

Nobody goes to Costco all day long and they just eat samples. You don't just sit by the sample station all day long to fill your belly with the samples that they give you. Well, if you're poor. I've done that when I was broke. Sorry, I don't want people who just eat samples all the time. So when a person does a drug, what do they feel like? They feel like God. They feel this euphoria.

This is a sample. to eventually inspire you to buy the full product. The full product is to realize you can feel that if you unlock the power of your soul. Without the drug. Without the drug.

to then feel, heal, see, do things differently, as opposed to creating from within, right? Because no one's told them that they have the power inside of them that is nuclear. You have this power inside of you that is millions of times greater than any drug you're taking. But we've been told that we need to keep taking the drug to feel that way.

And it's true. It has unlocked more than they've ever experienced. So I don't ever tell people, don't do this plant. Don't do this drug. When people tell me, I love sex. I'm having sex with everybody. Is there a problem with that? I say, that's fine. You can have sex with everybody you want. You can have all the drugs you want. I have, but I do want you to know

that you have something greater inside of you that will give you even more pleasure and more euphoria. If you're open to it, we can talk.

See, that's the thing. You actually begin to shrink the vessel. How do we know? Because every time you take the drug, it's never as potent the next time. You need more. You need more frequently. You need it more frequently. So you actually begin to shrink your capacity until you experience death.

And then there's some kind of death or painful scenario that breaks your vessel open again, and then you start that process over. The only way to really expand your vessel spiritually is a concept, is a spiritual law that is certainty beyond logic.

You have to be put in a dark situation, a difficult situation, where you do not see any logical way of getting out of it, and then choose to have certainty that you can. Even if you have to fake that certainty, but you have certainty beyond your logical mind, this breaks open the vessel and allows the next level of your soul to come in to hold this energy.
