A half a billion people have been impacted by that movie and the book. Rhonda Byrne made up her mind.

She wanted to change a billion lives. Well, she's well in it. way to do, and that a half a billion that we know of have been impacted by the secret. And the base of the secret of the essence behind the secret was the law of attraction. After the secret come out, there was books written on the law of attraction. People were speaking on the law of attraction, as if it had never been heard of before. But the law of attraction goes a long ways back. Do you know, Andrew Carnegie talked about the law of attraction in 1908 when he was mentoring

Napoleon Hill. I started to study this information in 1961. Twenty-five years later, I wrote the book You Were Born Rich. You can go on to our site, go to Proctor Gallagher.com, and you can download this book for absolutely nothing. We don't charge anything. I want everybody to understand this information. But on page 109 in that book was the Law of Vibration and Attraction. You see, vibration and attraction go together. Attraction is a secondary law. Vibration is the primary law. Everything vibrates. The law of vibration decrees that nothing rests. Everything moves. We literally live in an ocean of motion. You see, it was way back in 1961 that I actually started to study that. That was 55 years ago. And I've never stopped studying it. I have done this information to be absolutely fascinating.

Now, over the next 30 minutes, I'm going to ask you to really think. And why should you? Well, because you're going to have virtually anything you want. Now, before we get into the law of attraction in any depth, I want you to stop and think about the goals that you're working on. See, most people are involved in A-type goals. A-type goals are going after what you already know how to do. You'll often hear a person say they've got a goal to get a new car.

Well, you might ask them, have you ever ever? had a new car. Oh yeah, I've had two or three of them. See, they've known for a long time how to get a new car. That is not a goal. That may be something they want to do, and they certainly should if that's what they want. A goal is something that we set that's going to draw the best out of us. Goals are not to get. That's a side benefit. Goals are to grow. Well, generally, if a person graduates from going after what they know how to do, they go after what they think they can do. I call that a B-type goal. Now, doing what you think you can do. There's no, there's no inspiration in it. There's no real growth to it. It's sort of a little game of manipulation. If she does this, if he does that, if I can get this, then I could reach this

goal. I want you to really understand this law. And when you understand it, you're going to start to operate on a totally different vibration. You're going to move into a whole new world. You're going to start stretching. And that's what you really want to do. You see, you are God's highest form of creation. You have been built with mental tools that enable you to create. That's the C-type goal, a creative goal. This is going after what you really want. You don't know how to get it, but you know you're going to get it. Now, stop and think in history.

The Wright brothers didn't know how to get it in the plane in the ground, but they knew they were going to get it in the ground. Ed Hilary did not know how he was going to get to the top of the mountain, but he knew he was going to the top of the mountain. What do you really want? Now think. Just come along with me and daydream for a few minutes. And then I'm going to show you some of the rules that you can follow. Stop and think of this. Do you think Steve Jobs knew how to do this before he did it? No. He couldn't tell you how he did this until after he did it. And that's the same with anything in life. People that have done great work didn't know how they were going to do it. Roger Bannister didn't know how to run the four-minute mile until after he had run a four-minute mile. And you just don't know. You know, the strange thing about it, within months, somebody else was running a four-minute mile, and I believe now we're running the Boston Marathon in under a five-minute mile.

So pretty soon they'll be doing that in a four-minute mile. What do you really want? Understand this. If you can see it, you don't have to know how to get it, your life will change. You see, you're a whole lot more than what you appear to be on the surface. You already have within all it's required to, attract literally. You already have within all it's required to attract whatever you want into your life. The mind and the law of vibration are two things. When you start to understand them,

everything starts to improve. When you really understand them, you take control of your life. You've been given the ability to do that. All you have to do is learn how. There's actually 25 We'll call it formula. You can call it a success formula, but it's really manifesting anything you want, whether it's a relationship or the health or a perfect body or success in life or money or a better job or career or whatever you want to manifest. There's 25 elements. And if you would break it down, just the quick element there, of course, is define your dream

and get a burning desire for its achievement. Well, if you would expand it just a little bit, it's you get a picture in your mind of what you want and you see yourself in possession of what you desire. And you feel now as if you would feel if you were in possession of that. So it's really creating the future today in your mind using your imagination. That's the critical element. The feeling is the key. Neville Goddard, he was very, very scientific on adding the feeling to that picture,

they're not just visualizing, but actually adding the feeling, feeling now as if you would feel. But there's two other key, we'll call it missing ingredients that make the law of attraction or manifesting work, which I haven't found in any book. And I've got thousands of them and so forth. And there's two real missing keys. One is after you feel now as if you would feel if you were in possession of what you desire, you have to release attachment to that outcome. you have to release an attachment to it.

In other words, it's okay if it never happens. And this is counterintuitive. But the reason you release attachment is because fear or a feeling of not getting it can creep in. Sometimes we call that lack or feeling of not having it. And that feeling will then create more lack and create never having it. So you have to eliminate that. and the way you do it is you release an attachment to an outcome. This is why in life we always say,

when you least expect it, it'll happen. Because at that point, you've released attachment to the outcome, which means you've released wanting, because if you want, want, want, want, the universe is going to make sure you're always wanting, wanting, wanting, instead of thabbing. So you have to release attachment to the outcome. You get rid of the feeling of lack or not having it,

and then it can come in. you're in a state of allowing, you're in a receptive state. The second missing ingredient, which is really the, if there's one, what I would call the biggest missing ingredient, which has never talked about in any form, it's the why behind the why. It's this. I was talking to a Super Bowl champion. He won six Super Bowls.

A lot of people don't fall into that category. so you may have an idea I'm going to about who I was talking to. And he said, I love winning. I crave winning. I'm obsessed with winning.

But there's something that's even more powerful than wanting to win. It's hating to lose. I hate losing. I hate losing more than I want to win. That's the why behind the

why. You have to have pain. We're either, We're driven by two factors. Either a desire to gain something, a desire for pleasure, or a desire to avoid pain. And the desire to avoid pain is always more powerful than the desire to gain pleasure. If you organize your mind to a certain level of organization, it in turn organizes the whole system. Your body, your emotion, your energies, everything it's organized in the direction. Once all these four dimensions of you, your physical body, your mind, your emotion, and the fundamental life energies are organized in one direction.

Once you are like this, you can manifest what you want. If you organize these four dimensions in one direction and keep it unwavering in that direction for a certain period of time. Right now the problem with your mind is every moment it is changing its direction. It is like you want to travel somewhere, and every two steps, if you keep changing your direction, the question of you reaching the destination is very remote unless it happens by chance. So organizing our minds and in turn organizing the whole system

and these four basic dimensions of who you are right now in one direction, if you do this, anything that you wish will happen. Well, I think if we keep quantum physics and the understanding very simple for the layperson, that our observation has a direct effect on our world, I think if we keep it very simple, then people can get about the business of beginning to practice the skill of observation. See, the subatomic world responds to our observation, but the average person loses their attention span every six to ten seconds per minute.

So that doesn't leave a lot of room for our attention span. So how could a very large respond to someone who doesn't have the ability to even focus and concentrate? Maybe we're just poor observers. Maybe we haven't mastered the skill of observation, and maybe it is a skill. And maybe we're so addicted to the external world and so addicted to the stimulus in response to the external world that the brain is beginning to work out of response instead of out of creation. And they talk about manifesting.

It's real, mad. Manifesting is real. When you figure out who you are and what you want to do and you devote your life to it, like a maniac, like you're all in on this thing, and you manifest, most of these people end up, you know, doing what they say they're going to do and being who they say they're going to become.

It's real. Yeah, I believe in manifest. I believe in putting a rocket of desire out into the universe, and you get it when you believe it. You get it when you believe you have it. And that's the key. It's like people still, they sit around going, when's it going to come, when's it going to come,

when's it going to come, when's it going to come? And that's the wrong way. You're facing the wrong way. You're facing away from it. You have to go, it's here, it's here, it's here. Self-talk and visualization are two keys to my success. I'm able to visualize and dream. Like nobody's business, and I know that I can create a vision that many people can't.

I started being able to take negative shit and be happy. That dreamer mentality just would always fuel me. Just the act of physical visualization of sort of imagination of that motor skill, it's about 50% as effective as physically performing it too. And it's 50% as effective. What I mean there is in changing the plastic connections within the brain. brain. So even just visualization, you know, passive

play, as it were, still can actually cause a rewiring of the brain beneficially. I became obsessed with the power of the mind, meditation, visualization, and just realizing how powerful our minds actually are, like how we

really do paint our world with our thoughts and our level of self-belief. If you can see it here and you have the courage enough to speak it, it will have So I see these shots, I see these sequences, and I don't shy away from them. Make something manifest that you want. If this is the case, then for me, starting very easily again, it starts with the smallest area inside of yourself.

It starts with the smallest aspect. Let's just take it as the world of thoughts. But the world of thoughts is not graspable. The only one who knows about it is yourself. Like attracts like. You have to understand. You are a magnet. Whatever you are, that's what you draw to you.

If you're negative, you're going to draw negativity. You're positive, you draw positive. So you're like a magnet. You know, if you see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand. When you're trying to figure out your life all the way to the end, when you can't figure it out, it frees you from trying it because you go, oh, well, I can't figure that out. Oh, I can't go over there because I don't. don't know how. You don't have to know how. You have to ask, believe, and receive. I wrote myself a check for $10 million for acting services rendered, and I gave myself

five years, or three years maybe, and I dated at Thanksgiving 1995, and I put it in my wallet, and I kept it there, and it deteriorated and deteriorated and stuff. And, and, and, but then just before Thanksgiving 1995 I found out that I was going to make $10 million on I think it was dumb and dumber me Thank you for tuning in Continue strengthening your mind
