THE ED MYLETT SHOW - "Prosperity, Protection, and Peace: The Three Pillars of Fulfillment"
Episode Date: January 23, 2025What if everything you’ve ever dreamed of already existed within you, waiting to be uncovered? In this episode, I explore the three things that truly shape our lives: prosperity, protection, and pea...ce. It’s not about chasing something outside yourself but tapping into what’s already there, unlocking the person you were born to be. Together, we’ll reflect on why your identity acts as the thermostat for your success, and how to raise its setting to match your true potential. We’ll talk about why “thinking and growing rich” isn’t enough—you’ve got to be the person who attracts prosperity. And most importantly, I’ll share how peace with yourself is the foundation that allows everything else—wealth, protection, and joy—to fall into place. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt, felt stuck in your circumstances, or wondered why certain goals seem just out of reach, this is your reminder: You already have everything you need to win. Let’s flip the switch on your life and step into the extraordinary version of you. Key Takeaways: Why the version of you that you’re striving to become already exists within. How your identity acts like a thermostat, controlling the level of success you allow in your life. The role of imagination in revealing the possibilities that are already yours. How acting as if you’ve already achieved your goals changes everything. Why peace with yourself—and knowing yourself—is the ultimate foundation for prosperity and protection. The life you want isn’t a distant dream—it’s right here, waiting for you to step into it. Start today. Max out! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This is The Ed Myron Show.
All right, welcome back to the show, everybody. So first, just another thank you. I want to
thank you so much for sharing the episodes every single week.
As many of you know, we were just named the number one show in the world in our category
and that's because so many of you share our episodes every single week.
So this week, I want to discuss three P's with you.
Prosperity, Protection, and Peace.
How's that sound?
Want to spend some time talking about that this week?
I know I sure do. How many of you would like a little bit more prosperity? Be able to have more protection in your life?
Feel more protected? Be able to protect your family better? And the Holy Grail of life, have a lot more peace in our lives.
And so I want to discuss those with you this week. And you know, I get asked a lot, you know,
we get the questions submitted what people want me to cover on the show oftentimes it's related or correlated to
these topics one of the things I get asked a lot about is my opinions on the
law of attraction is it real how's it really work on success on mindset on can
you really think things into your awareness can you think and grow rich
what do you have to think and do to become rich and rich in every single
area rich meaning prosperity rich meaning in protection,
and rich in the most important things in our life,
which is peace.
And so you were born to protect somebody
and that person may be you to protect your own peace
as Trent Shelton has said at our events.
It might be financial protection.
I don't know what it is,
but I know that it's gonna require two things.
It's gonna require prosperity and peace. And I want to talk to
you this week about both of those things. Prosperity, protection, and peace in a really condensed,
right at you format. Because I really believe that it's the most important thing you could do
for yourself. And here's the biggest kicker of this whole thing. Everything you need to win is
within you right now. Everything you need to win is within you right now. Everything you need to win is within you right now.
It's a matter of you tapping into it.
It already exists within you.
You lack nothing.
There's no part of what you need to become that you don't already possess.
It's a matter of it being dormant inside of you.
And we need to tap it so that it becomes alive again.
It's like turning a switch on inside somebody that has been off. It's not that the power isn't connected. It's not that you're not
ready to go. It's that the switch has been off and when you flip that switch
on it shines a light into who you really are. If you can actually begin to live
life by flipping these switches on at any given time, all of a sudden it starts
to give momentum to your life. You're like, I've turned another part of me on,
another part of me on, another part of me on, another part of me on.
All of this already exists within you.
It's just lying dormant,
and we need to turn it on right now.
And so let's just jump right in
and some of the things that I've learned from my mentors
and that I've just discovered in my 53 years on earth.
So first thing is this,
you have to know that you already are what you want to be. You have to know that you already are what you want to be
You have to know that you already are what you want to be It's just a matter of tapping into that version of you that extension of you
That's not yet been tapped into or revealed yet, but that part of you that you want to be you already are
It's not something outside of you. You have to go get it's an awareness
It's a tapping into. All of that potential was
sown into you when you were born. In my faith you were created in the image and
likeness of God. And so all of these things, this is so important to start
out today, that you want to be. You already are. There's just a block there
that's not allowing you to reveal that version or that extension of
yourself or you haven't tapped into that part of you yet.
And so to start out, you've got to live by complete faith in this assumption,
and that no, when you have thoughts and feelings that don't serve you,
and they enter your awareness, and they're kind of contradictory to that thought,
that is not from God. That is not high vibrational frequency.
It's low vibrational frequency.
In my faith, it would be from the adversary or the devil. Let me say this
to you again. You've got to live by complete faith in the assumption that it
is true that you already are who you want to be. And it's just a matter of
discovering that part of you. This is so critical because I think often times
people think, I'm just not that way, or that part of me doesn't exist or I'll never have that or I've got to go chase
this and it's not outside of you it's within you and what's great about
life is it's always been within you it's just not been a part of your awareness
and so when you think a thought that is contradictory to that know that that's
the adversary if you if you believe in my faith. Know that that's the adversary. If you believe
in my faith, you know that that's the adversary. That's not from God. If you
don't share my faith and you think about energy and frequency, which I also believe
in, it is the lowest possible vibrational frequency because it's not true. And so
it reduces our light. It dims our life. And high vibrational frequency, the
highest thing that vibrates at the highest frequency, is truth. Truth vibrates at the highest frequency. And so remember these things. Your imagination
is a revelation in your life of what's possible. You know, I use the word dream and vision a lot,
but in my book, In the Power of One More, I use the word imagination. Imagination in your life
is a glimpse of what's possible. It's a revelation. I
really believe dreams to some extent are God just showing you a little peek of
what's possible in your life, of what your potential is. I don't believe dreams
in most cases are hallucinations and it's your imagination telling you this
is possible for you. And so when you live this way, when you believe that you
already are who you want to be, now you may need to change some
behaviors and some thoughts and tactics so that you tap into that part of you.
But this notion that you are not that is a lie.
That is the adversary trying to get you to doubt, trying to get you discouraged.
Because if I can get you doubting and discouraged, you're gonna quit.
Or you just won't try as much. Or you'll try without belief. And trying without belief is empty.
When we attempt something, we've got to believe. We've got to know.
Because when we effort something with knowing, it's much more powerful than hoping.
And so, when you live this way, you can call all things into existence as if they already did.
You can go into a partnership with God and pray about it and call the things into your life and pray for that
direction and that discernment to call it into your life. And by doing so the
universe begins to cooperate with you in this assumption. See, when you assume
something great is going to happen in your life, if you're a person of faith
like I am, if you're a Christian, The Word of God is very clear about what your potential is and how you were made and what the outcomes of your life could be.
And even if you're not a person of faith, you are somebody who truly knows that you've seen other
people in life that come from less than you acquire great wealth, acquire great protection,
acquire peace in their life because they eventually find out it was always there. See one thing you've got to believe is
that you're not a conformist. That's what cowards do. Cowards conform to what
everybody else thinks. Cowards conform to what people have told them about them. I
don't listen to what other people have. If I had listened in my life to what
other people had told me as they projected their limiting beliefs upon me when I was an athlete or my intellect or my potential
or even people projecting emotions onto me about me even wanting to be
successful. Well why do you want money or why do you want to help so many people?
Why isn't where we are good enough? If I'd have allowed conformists to project
their small thinking onto my life.
It's almost terrifying to think about where I would be in my life right now.
And not only that, I would not have the wealth that I've built in my life, but I
wouldn't have the protection for my family.
And I certainly would never have tapped into peace.
Peace is really finally understanding who you are and whose you are.
And so you're not a conformist.
That's what cowards do.
Your job is to partner with God
in the creation of your life and to ask for direction,
ask for the resources, ask for the right people,
ask for him to help you tap in to what is already within you.
And so if you can pursue what's already been placed
in your imagination, see, here's what really happens,
actually,
it will begin to pursue you.
When you get into this state of knowing
the things I've discussed today,
and that I'm gonna talk about as we go forward,
believe it or not, these things will begin to pursue you
that you imagine and dream about.
It won't be such a grind.
I'm not saying you're not gonna work and bust it
and get after it and overcome adversity and obstacles.
That's all part of the game.
But what you will find is that more things will pursue you.
More people will show up.
More circumstances, more opportunities
will begin to pursue you if you can start to believe
that what's been placed in your imagination.
See, I actually think imagination
is actually not from our mind.
I think imagination is actually not from our mind. I think imagination is
actually from our hearts. We see it and feel it in our mind's eye, but I believe
it's generated. Our dreams come from our hearts, and so it'll actually start to
pursue you. And when you truly feel it...

in the studio. We're gonna record an episode and guess what I just did before
I walked in. Walked into my pantry, got my AG1s out,
poured it in my glass, made myself a drink of AG1s. I do it every single day.
For me, I do it a couple times a day. Why do I use AG1? Number one, supports my
energy. Number two, digestion. Number three, immunity support. And actually, I feel a
different mood when it comes on. My body gets a little bit more calm, yet I've got
more energy. I love AG1. One of my commitments is to take AG1 every day in 2025. It's
literally on my goal list. So what are your health goals for the year? And I
think whatever they are, AG1 can probably help support them. So this new year, try
AG1 for yourself. It's the perfect time to start a new healthy habit. AG1 is

note.
The fact of the matter is,
what you truly believe you are,
and what you feel yourself to be, you are.
You are.
You are given that which you are.
We do not attract into our lives what we really desire.
We attract into our lives who and what we are.
People ask me about the law of attraction.
My belief is that you don't attract
just the things you want or that you desire. You attract who you are, who
you believe you are, and what you believe you are. And long-term, human beings find
a way to be consistent about what they believe about themselves. That the world
conspires to deliver to you what you really believe you're worth, what you
believe you're capable of, what you can most actually believe you already are, you are given that which you are long
term in life. And for a long time in my life, particularly when I was younger, I
thought well that's just absolutely not true. I didn't choose to grow up in an
alcoholic family with my dad using drugs. I didn't choose to you know not be
six foot five and be able to dunk a basketball.
These aren't things of my choosing.
But the fact of the matter is,
of the things that matter in life,
I have found in my life that I eventually attract
who I believe I am, and I've been given in my life
the people, the places, the circumstances,
that I believe I'm not just worthy of,
but that I believe I'm capable of and so when you can adopt the feeling
that would be yours already is if you were already in possession of something. Let me say this again
maybe a little bit more clearly. If you can begin to work on having the feeling that would be yours
as if you already were in possession of something and you can rehearse that feeling over and over again. Repetitively acting in congruency with it, you walk and you talk etc. as if you
already possess it. That you begin the process of thoughts or magnets of
drawing those circumstances into your life. So let me say this to you again. I
want you to begin to work on adopting the feeling that would be yours if you
were in possession of that vision or dream for your life. So that thing you imagine, that relationship, that
body, that amount of wealth, you know we talked about prosperity, that's the wealth
part. Protection could be that you feel in a relationship you're safe in or
you've built you know protection for your own family and that you can
physically or financially defend yourself or spiritually defend yourself
and then peace in your life.
See, if you can actually begin to adopt the feelings and the emotions repetitively and you begin to create that what we'll just call chemistry in your body,
that neuro biochemistry in your body that's consistent with that, the dreams and the things that you imagine,
and when you rehearse that feeling repetitively over and over again
what happens when you rehearse it is you become familiar with it and your mind moves towards what it's most familiar with and
Because you've familiar with this and you are acting and feeling as if you possess it you begin to behave in a way
Behaviors your habits and rituals change the way you walk you talk you act the choices you make daily
change the way you walk, you talk, you act, the choices you make daily and all of a sudden you begin to draw those things in your life not just because of some
magnetic, you know, whimsy manifestation thing. No, it's that. Plus you're beginning
to see things because of the way your reticular activating system works in
your brain that were always there but you missed or hear things that were
always there but you didn't hear or feel things that were always there but you didn't feel and on top of all of that
you're starting to take actions that are congruent with that version of you that
already existed whereas before you weren't so it's not just some you know
draw it into your life thing although that's part of it you will begin to
behave differently as that character in the story simply because you begin to
rehearse and adopt these feelings because we attract who we are. If you
can begin to feel, you guys I work very hard when I set up a goal or there's
something I'm really envisioning, I'll repeat it over and over and over again
and I've learned to rehearse the feeling I have as if I already possess it and
I'm convinced that I already do, that it's already within me,
that I already have it. And so most of the times when I've reached most of my
goals, quite honestly it wasn't a surprise when I got there because I had
been living as if I possessed that emotion, that feeling, that thing, that
relationship, that whatever it might be for a very long time prior to it actually
showing up or manifesting itself in my life.
You know, really be it is the point. You know, I learned from Wayne Dyer many years ago, my mentor,
that really who you are and the person that you truly are, there's really two of us. There's an
ego part of us and that part of us is really concerned about what you possess, how much you have, what's mine, he would say.
And that version of you is, it's okay, there's nothing wrong with it.
But the ego is always concerned about what's mine, what's mine, what's mine.
And to some extent, we believe if something is mine, it can't be yours. And so oftentimes, when we believe that,
there's a subconscious, unconscious thing that happens with a good person.
And a good person thinks, well if I acquire that thing, it's taken from someone else.
As if these things are finite. And so that, there's a block in many good people
that think, well if I do get wealthy, someone else has to get poor.
Or if I am happy, that's at the expense of someone else.
And that's a fallacy.
And so this idea of the ego about what's mine, it doesn't serve us because if you're a good person with an ego,
you begin to think you're taking from someone else and most people won't do it.
They won't take from someone else. Now that's a false belief.
But then Wayne would talk about what he would call
the sacred self.
And the sacred self, which I believe to be so true,
this is the person of you walking in congruence with God,
with whatever your scriptures are.
That person just wants one thing, and that's to be at peace.
That's what you really want.
You don't want a bunch of stuff you can't take with you.
Having said that, prosperity is one of the key things
we've talked about today and will.
So is protection.
One of the great things about being wealthy
is you can protect your family.
They can live in a safer place.
If they need something, their car needs repair,
they've got a health issue or help with something,
you can protect them.
So that's a great part of it. But the ego is concerned about what's mine and
somehow we actually begin to believe subconsciously that if it's mine we've
taken it from this other person and that's why we actually don't possess it
because we're a decent human being. We don't want to take, we want to give. And
so what if the truth is that what you really want is peace? What you really want is peace, but you think if I had more prosperity and I had more protection
Then I could afford myself the time to work on my peace
And what I'm saying to you is that you can have all three and all three of them already exist within you
The key thing is to give to others that which you want most in your own life
To give people protection to give people protection, to
give people all the gifts of them being more prosperous in their life in any way
that you can, to give people the gift of kindness and grace and peace because
it's the true way that you tap into your own. See, you can't transfer to somebody
that which you're not experiencing yourself. The greatest gift you can tap
into yourself in the sacred version of you is what I call peace. In my book In the Power of
One More, I write a chapter on equanimity. Equanimity to me basically means
peace even under duress, even under stress. That when you can find peace even
in the most tumultuous times, in the most difficult times, you've tapped into the
most powerful and amazing gift God gave you. The most unbelievable part of you as a
man or a woman is your ability to find peace even under duress. And then when
you find that peace in your life, which is what you really want, the prosperity
and the protection is a very natural byproduct. When I say peace, I don't just
mean in unison with God, although that's the most important one. Let me
tell you the type of peace that I would love for you to have. If
I could wish a gift for you above the peace of God, which
beyond goes beyond all understanding. Peace with you,
to be at peace with yourself, to be at peace with yourself. I
love me, I like me. I've tapped into all of the
good things that God gave me that were always there. Finding peace with yourself
and loving yourself is one of the most sacred gifts you can ever give you and I
believe one of the keys to doing that is you have to know yourself before you
could love yourself and so the parts of you that you need to know yourself before you could love yourself. And so
the parts of you that you need to know is that all of these beautiful gifts
already exist within you. But I think there's a part of life of self-discovery
where we have to see ourselves behaving in congruence with who we really are to
truly give ourselves that gift. Now that shouldn't be the case, right? But I can
tell you that I think to be at peace with yourself, you have to know yourself.
And to know yourself is to act in congruence
with who you truly are.
So if I'm right, that all of these great things
that you think you want already exist within you.
And if you can begin to adopt that belief
and act and feel as if you're that person already,
what I'm saying to you is you'll find a peace
within yourself that will give you
every other thing you want in your life and these things will begin to pursue
you. So yes I am saying you need to change the way you behave. You need to
start to act like the woman you're capable of being. You need to start
acting like the man you're capable of being. See ask yourself this the
protection part. Who should you be protecting in your life? Do you have children that you need to be protecting
better than you are?
Financially, spiritually, emotionally?
Do they need to see a happier version of mom or dad?
Are you charged with protecting your parents?
Maybe you're young, listening to this,
and at some point your mom and dad are gonna need you
to protect them like they protected you, right?
Is it your brothers or sisters?
Is it friends of yours?
Is it you? Do you
need to do a better job of protecting you? Not allowing the wrong people in
your life and toxic people to come into your life and hurt you over and over
again. What is it? Who are you charged with protecting? Because that's part of
your calling in life. Prosperity is a birthright of yours. I don't just mean
wealth. Prosperity is a right to feel prosperous,
to feel as if you're growing,
to feel as if you're expanding.
And when you are tapping into those parts of you
and changing the way you behave,
you're gonna begin to like you a lot more.
You're gonna begin to love you a lot more.
All right, it's that time here, it's cold out.
One of my favorite things I've gone back to
is hot chocolate.
I'm doing that all the time right now. And I love laying on the couch with a blanket on when it's cold out. One of my favorite things I've gone back to is hot chocolate. I'm doing that all the time right now and I love laying on the couch with a blanket on
when it's cold out. Watch a little football or some Netflix. Yes I do do

cold weather and that's where the ultimate cold weather necessity company

looking for? How do you change stuff right? you want, that new you that you're looking for?
How do you change stuff, right?
It's the great question that I get asked all the time.
And it's a mixture between what you do and what you think.
I think Think and Grow Rich is one of the greatest books I've ever read at the same
time.
In fact, it's the number one book after the Bible that I recommend people read.
Then I recommend the power of one more by me. Having said that, I don't believe you just think
and things happen.
I don't believe you just sit there and meditate
and things are drawn into your life.
But I believe it a little bit.
I believe it's part of the equation.
I believe what you think about causes you
to behave differently, causes you to vibrate differently,
causes you to pray differently.
I know that what you think about and what you believe about yourself you tap into.
And so it's true that you probably right now ask yourself what are three or four
of your biggest dreams and goals in your life? Whether that's a new relationship
or a certain level of prosperity as we've talked about. Relationship probably
falls under protection that you feel safe and loved and believed in and cared for. That may be through a new, you
know, intimate relationship. It may be a new friend that you want in your life. It
may be a new business partnership and then peace in your life. What are the
real emotions of just true peace you want to have? And if you begin to think
through that, people ask me all the time, Ed, what's the key? There are no, there's no one key.
But I can tell you that the things
we're discussing today matter.
And if anything I have seen in my life
is that long term in our lives,
we end up getting out of life who we believe we are.
Now I talk often times about the thermostat analogy,
and I just wanna to share this with
you again.
It's been stolen by enough people in personal development the last couple decades but I
know you've heard this, some of you, me say this if you watch my work but even if you
have hear it differently today, there's a thermostat on your life and it is your identity.
But what's different about how I explain this now is what is identity?
I used to say identity is the thoughts, beliefs, and concepts that you believe to be the most true about you.
And that is true. But I want to add something to it.
I think your identity is the parts of you that you truly believe you can tap into.
And the limitations on your identity are your blind spots of not knowing who you really are so you don't tap into those parts of you.
That if it were true that this person you want to be you already are and that your identity
is only limited by your ability to believe you are that person, that's a little bit of
new look on identity.
And so your identity, this part of you, and it is limited, let me say again, by your lack of awareness of who you really are
or your limited awareness of who you are.
And then if you expand your awareness of who you are
as a being, as a man or a woman,
and understand that you already are this person
that you want to be, that you just need to tap
into that level of you, that part of you,
that would expand your identity.
But that identity limits us. It's like a thermostat setting on our life. So in the studio,
it's actually cold in here today, it's about 70 degrees outside, it's about 80 right now.
The thermostat, the setting in this life, how I feel is not dictated by what's going on outside
of this room, any more than how you feel is dictated by what's going on outside of this room, any more than how you feel is dictated
by what's going on outside of you.
That doesn't affect it, the thermostat setting does.
So even though it's 80 degrees outside,
this thermostat setting cools the room back down to 70,
which is its thermostat setting.
That's how your life works.
So what I see happen in life often
is people start acquiring the
skills short term or the relationships short term or they get the momentum in
their life and they but their identity is 70 degrees but all of a sudden they
start producing the results 75 80 85 degrees of whatever that is wealth
protection relationship emotions happiness bliss peace success and they're at 85, 90, 95
and the results are getting better and better, except they haven't changed who
they really believe they are. And subconsciously, unconsciously, eventually
what they do is they turn the air conditioner on of their life and they
cool it back down to who they believe they are at 70 degrees. So that money they've accumulated all of a sudden, uh-oh car breaks down, had to loan
this money, lost some in the market and it seems all coincidental but it's not.
It's you turn the air conditioner on or that relationship you had was going
great and then all of a sudden you grew apart. That seems like it but what really
happened is you turn the air conditioner on of your life you cooled it back down
to 70 degrees which is who you believe you are.
That body, you'd lost weight, you were fit, you were working out, and all of a sudden, six months, a year later,
maybe you put a little bit of that weight back on, or maybe you've lost some of that muscle mass.
And you go, well, I got busy at work and my diet changed and the gym closed.
No, it wasn't any of that.
It's not external.
It's not the 80 degrees outside. It's that inside you believe you're a 70 degree and you've cooled it
back down. What I have now begun to realize is this limiting belief of who
we are is only a lack of awareness of what already exists with inside of us.
And so I believe the key to all of these things you want is beginning to walk, talk, act, and
most importantly see and feel as if you already possess these things now.
You already are that man or woman now, which you are by the way.
And eventually long term what happens is you begin to draw around you other people who
live in that thermostat setting that you need to have.
They live at 85 or 90 or 100 or 200 in the area in which you dream of being and
once you've drawn those people into your life they begin to heat you up
somewhere in between their thermostat setting and yours. They begin to see in
you what does a great leader do? A great leader sees your potential, don't they?
A great leader sees something in you, believes in you, even when you don't believe in yourself.
Well, those leaders are your friends.
But what this leader is really doing is seeing the true you.
They're not seeing a false you.
They're seeing who you really are and you are blinded by your life's experiences,
your traumas, your
letdowns, your limited amount of success, the hurts you've gone through, the
setbacks, and so this is dulled your thinking. The Bible says where the people
have no vision they will perish, but oftentimes there's a vision it's just
blurry. You just can't quite see who you really are or there's a depth perception
issue and you just believe all these things are further away than they are.
It's changed your perception of how far things are when they were always right here. In fact, you always possessed them.
And so I have to tell you that when you begin to change these things about you, you begin to become the real you.
And the real you already has these things. The real you already feels these these things the real you can have all of the peace he or she wants all of
the prosperity you desire all of the protection it's already within you as a
person of faith I know I'm protected I have the comfort of God the armor of God
and so this identity stuff is everything. This feeling is
everything. This knowing who you are is everything. And it requires
intentionality. It requires work because you've been this limited person all your
life. And this person's a great person. And they've had a good life maybe. But
there's always been a part of you that knows you were born for more, created more and it's one of those three or all of those three you want more prosperity
more protection feel safer or to be able to protect more people you love but i can tell you
the holy grail of all of it is you want more peace you want more peace i think that peace comes from
peace with god and peace with oneself and peace
with oneself is being beginning to know who you really are. See I'll just give
you a little things on faith. There's really two frames of reference in life. I
write about it in the power of one more. Frame of reference number one are people
that live their lives. We call these prisms or filters. They live their life
operating out of history and memory.
History and memory. They're always the person lamenting about the past or even reminiscing
or romanticizing the past. I was a high school quarterback. I got my master's degree. This previous
thing. They talk about the past all the time. They operate out of memory. They'll tell you about the
things that happened to them that were good or bad in their life over and over. But these
are people whose life reference, frame of reference, prism or filter is the past or
memory and they constantly live there. What I have found is that people that
live in that frame of reference have a very hard time finding peace. Almost
impossible time finding protection and prosperity. Now, the other frame of reference is someone who has,
they operate out of imagination and dreams.
These people are happier.
These people are increasing.
These people are expanding.
These people are writing the new chapters of their life
and not living in the past.
This is a small group of people
who have chosen to live their life
out of imagination, vision, and dreams and not history and memory.
And so if you're someone listening to this or watching you, man, I'm kind of the person who looks back, who thinks about the past.
I reminisce about it or I lament it. I reference it. I'm always overcoming it.
Whatever that is, that is a formula for no prosperity, protection or peace.
If you can begin to change your frame of reference,
begin to operate out of imagination and vision and dreams
and be present when you're doing it,
but to begin to see a future that's brighter,
to tap into the parts of you that exist
and know if I start tapping in to who I really am,
that I can begin to live.
See the great thing about imagination,
you can imagine you already possess that goal, imagine you already possess that promotion, that car, that body, that
wealth, that home, that relationship, that peace, and you begin to feel the feelings as if you
already possessed it, and you're imagining the future as if you have it now. This is someone
who's very difficult to get down, very difficult to keep broke, very difficult
to not protect their family, really difficult long term not to find some peace.
And so this idea of operating out of the two prisms of imagination and dreams and vision
as opposed to history and memory is huge.
And by the way, I won't say this to sell you anything.
If you want more information on all these things, get the power of one more in my book. It sold a million copies. There's a lot in there. But for today's podcast,
take a look at that frame of reference for you and where you're operating. Because I know everything you want operates out of imagination, vision, and dreams.
And just remember these few things. I'll just give you some peace. Okay? One, you're a child of God.
And just remember these few things, and I'll just give you some peace, okay?
One, you're a child of God.
You're adopted as a child of God,
and you're heirs to all of his kingdom and glory.
You're redeemed, you're redeemed.
You can have a new identity
at any time you want in your life.
Any time you want your life.
You're also a living temple.
You're a temple for God.
Your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit.
Your body is the place where you're going to live all of your life. And getting closer to that body,
giving yourself the gift of moving your body physically and breathing and taking a walk and
hydrating and doing all these things of feeding your temple will begin to convince you that you're
in possession of these things. You can also be friends with God. If you don't have friends
around you that are supporting you, you can be able to friendship with God. You also represent God and you're united with them and
you're set free by all of that. You're chosen too by the way. You're chosen and you're blessed.
And so I just want to remind you of all these things in your life. You could tap into any of
these things at any time you want to because they already exist within you.
It's who you are.
When I say often on the show that you were born to do something great with your life, I mean it.
I also know it.
You were born to do something great with your life.
And once you accept that, let me say it to you again, my friend,
I'm just here to love you and
believe in you. You were born to do something great with your life and it
already exists within you and once you know that and you create an imagination
and a vision for what that's gonna look like and you begin to feel and act as if
you already possess that right now more of these things will chase you than you can possibly imagine in your life.
I wish you continued and increased prosperity.
I want to challenge you to protect your family and your loved ones
and you protect your peace.
Most of all, I wish you continued blessings of more peace in your life
and that maybe today's show
helped you tap into some of those thoughts and feelings,
rehearse these things in your mind,
feel as if you already possession,
you will eventually attract into your life who you are
and what you are.
All right, God bless you, share today's episode, Max out.
