The one thing that I've realized that really helps with my happiness and helps with my mindset and helps with pretty much everything throughout my entire day and really everything that I do is that I have this weird feeling all day long that no matter what happens to me, it's the world helping me out. And so a lot of times people have

the mindset of the world is against them, right? Something that happens bad to them and they think, oh, the world is against me. Oh, it's so tough. Things are so hard for me. That person hates me. And they come from it from a negative standpoint. I want to talk to you about coming at everything from a positivity standpoint. So even if the most negative thing happens to you in the world, you still can go, okay, what is the world trying to teach? Like, what is the universe trying to teach me? Or what is God trying to teach me by throwing this at me? That's the way that I've chosen to choose my life.

And from a lot of very successful people that I've met and that I know and that I've learned from, that's how they choose to live their life as well. And you've heard me say it before, but the best day of my life was also the worst day of my life. And the worst day of my life was the day my father passed away. The best day of my life was the day my father passed away because that's when I truly learned about life and the fact that I only got one chance here. And so I was able to pull a positive from that. And so the thing that I want you to think about is, is there something in your life

that's happened to you, currently happening to you, or any of that stuff that you can look at that was really, really bad? And you can kind of look at it now with mature eyes. So say it was something that happened in your childhood, right? How can you look at it now? And it was something that was really bad, really terrible that happened to you. There's a lot of terrible things that happened in this world. We all know that. But how can you look at it now with mature eyes and say, what positive came from this? If the universe was trying to teach me something, if God was trying to teach me something, what was it trying to teach me? What good came from this? And what you do is you put a positive spin and make everything that happens to you good, negative, indifferent, all of those

things. You make every single thing that happens to you positive. No matter what it is, you pull positive from it, right? So let's go back. Let's think of your childhood. Let's think of something that might have happened to you a year ago or two years ago or six months ago, whatever it might be. Something that was terrible or could have been terrible that happened to you. And you sit down with a pen and paper and you ask yourself, what good came from this? What good can I find from this? Because here's the

thing, all of your failures, all of your flaws, everything that you've ever screwed up in your life, whether it was you that did something or somebody else did something, all of the things that's ever happened to your entire life are lessons if you allow them to be. Your life is full of lessons. You either win or you learn. There is no losing. So something that could have been negative in the past, you ask yourself, what good came from it? What good can I find in it? What good will come from it, right? Maybe it's something that you've been looking at for years that's been super negative in your head and you say, what good will come from this? If you're going through something right now, you ask yourself, what good can come from this? What can I learn from this?

And you look at everything as if the world is on your side, as if there's God or the universe is like, I'm going to, you know, whether it's good or bad or whatever it might be, if it's bad that comes at you, you say, all right, how am I being tested? What can I learn from this? What good can come from this? If it's something that's great that comes to you, you go, hey, guess what? Of course this came to me. My mom, she's always told me for such a long time. She's like, you get everything that you want. We'll go out to places and I'll get free stuff and do all of these different things. And I'm like, yeah, I just, the reason why is because I believe that the world is on my side. I believe that everything that I do, the world is conspiring to push me up to where I want to go. And so can you have that mindset from now on that the world or the universe or God, whether

you believe in something or don't believe in something is pushing you up to where you're supposed to be. If you don't believe in anything, maybe it's you, your inner self, your perfect version of yourself, pushing yourself up to become more perfect, to become the perfect version of yourself. Think about that for a second. What if every single thing that you did, every single thing that happened to you, you had the mindset of the world is trying to help me. The world is on my side, right? Because a lot of people, they go with the mindset and they automatically have learned this from other people or just seen it from other people, think that the world is against them.

I'm here to tell you the world is not against you. The world wants you to succeed. The universe wants you to become the best version of yourself or God wants you to become the best version of yourself. Whatever you believe in, there's something that wants you to be the best version of yourself or God wants you to become the best version of yourself. Whatever you believe in, there's something that wants you to be the best version of yourself, whether it's God, whether it's the universe, or whether it's the perfect version of yourself that's deep inside of your subconscious, that knows what you need to do, knows where you need to be. It's testing you and it's trying to put these trials in front of you and these challenges

in front of you so that you can grow and get better. It's just like a muscle. A muscle does not grow unless it's put under immense amount of strain, right? You do not grow and become the perfect version of yourself unless you are also put under immense amounts of stress and of strain. So you have to realize that every single thing that's bad that's ever happened to you is a challenge that is made by you, your perfect version of yourself, the world, the universe, God, whatever you believe in, it's made to make you grow and become better. Believe it. I promise you that this is the truth. And the more that you start to believe it, the more that you start to realize, holy crap, things are really starting to work out for me. So go through with the mindset from now on that the world is on your side and it's not against you. So if you like this
