Speaker:

Most of our life is elusive and

distorted and generalized and

2

00:00:05,515 --> 00:00:10,164

opinionated and subjectively biased most

of the time and it's a lie about our

3

00:00:10,165 --> 00:00:10,998

actuality.

4

00:00:15,915 --> 00:00:20,645

Have you ever had the illusion

that you're an honest person,

5

00:00:21,565 --> 00:00:25,645

<laugh>? Ooh, that's going to

cause some, stir up something here.

6

00:00:27,545 --> 00:00:31,845

You know, it was stated in the time

of Plato that all men are liars,

7

00:00:32,225 --> 00:00:33,325

all humans are liars.

8

00:00:34,115 --> 00:00:38,375

Let me elaborate on that for a moment

and talk about lying, the topic of lying.

9

00:00:39,675 --> 00:00:40,508

You know, if we,

10

00:00:41,175 --> 00:00:44,215

I have in my Breakthrough Experience

program that I teach pretty well weekly,

11

00:00:44,955 --> 00:00:48,015

people coming in and they come in

they're really resentful to somebody,

12

00:00:48,825 --> 00:00:50,604

and they really are angry at somebody,

13

00:00:51,145 --> 00:00:53,805

or really infatuated with

somebody and admiring somebody.

14

00:00:55,575 --> 00:01:00,075

And then I go through a series of steps

of asking questions to make them aware

15

00:01:00,255 --> 00:01:03,835

and conscious of things they were

unconscious of in their interpretation and

16

00:01:03,836 --> 00:01:05,194

perceptions of that individual.

17

00:01:06,725 --> 00:01:10,185

And I bring their perceptions back

into balance by asking them questions.

18

00:01:10,205 --> 00:01:12,145

For instance, what specific trait,

19

00:01:12,146 --> 00:01:15,425

action or inaction do you perceive this

individual displaying or demonstrating

20

00:01:15,426 --> 00:01:17,345

that you resent most, or admire most?

21

00:01:17,845 --> 00:01:19,705

And we identify what

it is they're judging.

22

00:01:20,685 --> 00:01:22,305

And then I ask them to be accountable,

23

00:01:22,465 --> 00:01:25,425

because it's not wise to judge other

people without looking at yourself.

24

00:01:26,025 --> 00:01:27,065

Because sometimes we judge other people,

25

00:01:27,066 --> 00:01:29,425

it's reminding us of stuff

we're judging in ourself.

26

00:01:30,084 --> 00:01:34,545

It was Romans 2-1 in the New Testament

that said, beware, whoever you judge,

27

00:01:34,685 --> 00:01:37,305

you do the same thing.

I found that to be true.

28

00:01:38,365 --> 00:01:41,665

So what happens is people come in there

and they judge somebody and they resent

29

00:01:41,905 --> 00:01:43,785

somebody for some action. And then I said,

30

00:01:43,786 --> 00:01:46,985

now go to a moment where and when

you perceive yourself displaying or

31

00:01:47,225 --> 00:01:49,065

demonstrating that same specific trait,

32

00:01:49,085 --> 00:01:50,865

action or inaction that

you're judging in them,

33

00:01:51,095 --> 00:01:55,625

that you despise and resent in them.

And they go, I swear I don't do that.

34

00:01:55,825 --> 00:01:58,945

I don't do that. I would never do that.

I pride myself on never doing that.

35

00:01:59,425 --> 00:02:00,465

I said, let's look again.

36

00:02:01,085 --> 00:02:03,985

And then I give them some examples of

where they may have done that and all of a

37

00:02:03,986 --> 00:02:08,985

sudden they go, oops. Yep. I found out

that we only judge people on the outside,

38

00:02:09,855 --> 00:02:14,264

only resent things on the outside that

represent parts of us on the inside that

39

00:02:14,265 --> 00:02:16,905

we're ashamed of, that we've

dissociated from our shame,

40

00:02:16,906 --> 00:02:18,865

put a pseudo cover over it,

41

00:02:18,945 --> 00:02:23,825

a dissociated pride persona

on, to cover up our shame.

42

00:02:24,205 --> 00:02:26,985

And then we don't want to be around the

person that reminds us of what we're

43

00:02:26,986 --> 00:02:27,764

ashamed of.

44

00:02:27,764 --> 00:02:31,145

So we go around and pretend we're too

proud to admit what we see in them is

45

00:02:31,146 --> 00:02:32,585

inside us but the truth is, we do.

46

00:02:33,525 --> 00:02:37,205

And I've been doing that exercise

for about 37, almost 38 years.

47

00:02:37,865 --> 00:02:40,565

And believe it or not,

everything you judge, you got.

48

00:02:41,264 --> 00:02:44,405

We only judge things on the outside that

represent parts of us that we haven't

49

00:02:44,406 --> 00:02:47,525

loved on the inside. Now, you

may not believe that initially,

50

00:02:47,665 --> 00:02:51,365

but I've proven that in thousands of cases

in the Breakthrough Experience so I'm

51

00:02:51,366 --> 00:02:52,199

certain that's there.

52

00:02:52,585 --> 00:02:56,165

But we don't want to admit it because

we think the form we do it in is okay,

53

00:02:56,166 --> 00:02:58,845

and we justify it in our mind. But

the reality is we do the same thing.

54

00:02:59,665 --> 00:03:01,925

So when people come in and

they're judging somebody,

55

00:03:02,435 --> 00:03:04,245

they believe that opinion is truth.

56

00:03:05,585 --> 00:03:09,285

But what they're actually doing is

having a subjective biased opinion as a

57

00:03:09,445 --> 00:03:12,805

survival mechanism in our sub-cortical

area of our brain, the amygdala.

58

00:03:12,905 --> 00:03:17,245

And we're distorting our reality and

generalizing statements and exaggerating

59

00:03:17,785 --> 00:03:22,365

the downside with confirmation

biases and minimizing the upside with

60

00:03:22,605 --> 00:03:24,325

disconfirmation bias

when we resent somebody,

61

00:03:24,326 --> 00:03:27,405

we have a false positive on the negatives

and a false negative on the positives.

62

00:03:27,815 --> 00:03:29,405

We're seeing something

there that's not there,

63

00:03:29,565 --> 00:03:31,925

and we're not seeing something

that is there. We're distorting it.

64

00:03:31,926 --> 00:03:34,965

And then we think that is our truth.

That our opinion is our truth,

65

00:03:35,825 --> 00:03:39,575

and we're lying. And then if

we infatuate with somebody,

66

00:03:40,125 --> 00:03:43,335

many people have gone into an infatuation

and thought, oh, that's who that is,

67

00:03:43,955 --> 00:03:47,495

that's my soulmate, we have the same

number of eyes, same number of ribs,

68

00:03:47,496 --> 00:03:51,255

same number of arms and legs, we must

be soulmates. And then days, weeks,

69

00:03:51,256 --> 00:03:52,855

months or years, we find

out, oh, they're a schmuck,

70

00:03:52,856 --> 00:03:56,735

they're not what we thought. And

we were conscious of the upsides,

71

00:03:56,736 --> 00:04:00,015

unconscious of the downsides, and we had

an opinion that they were our soulmate.

72

00:04:00,435 --> 00:04:04,695

And then over time, that whittles down

and we realize that what we see in them,

73

00:04:04,835 --> 00:04:06,135

we had inside ourselves,

74

00:04:06,595 --> 00:04:09,895

but we were minimizing ourselves to them

and too humble to admit what we saw in

75

00:04:09,896 --> 00:04:10,729

them inside us.

76

00:04:11,115 --> 00:04:15,655

And gradually we find out the downsides

of them and we start to see the upsides

77

00:04:15,656 --> 00:04:17,415

of us. And we start to

level the playing field.

78

00:04:17,416 --> 00:04:19,415

And we start to have a

moment of unconditional love.

79

00:04:19,714 --> 00:04:23,214

And we finally love the individual. When

we do, we have reflective awareness,

80

00:04:23,345 --> 00:04:27,214

we're empowered in that state. But in

that moment, we now have the truth.

81

00:04:28,035 --> 00:04:32,095

The rest of the time all of those opinions

and all those judgments we think are

82

00:04:32,096 --> 00:04:33,375

the truth, which are opinions,

83

00:04:33,675 --> 00:04:37,935

are subjective biases and confirmation

biases and false positives and negatives.

84

00:04:38,645 --> 00:04:43,255

Most of our life is elusive and

distorted and generalized and

85

00:04:43,964 --> 00:04:46,855

opinionated and subjectively

biased, most of the time,

86

00:04:46,856 --> 00:04:49,015

and it's a lie about our actuality.

87

00:04:50,895 --> 00:04:53,505

What's actually there

is something to love.

88

00:04:55,165 --> 00:04:59,385

And sometimes we wait till our last day

of our breath in our life and we finally

89

00:04:59,386 --> 00:05:00,865

realize that all that was trivia.

90

00:05:01,245 --> 00:05:04,545

And really being grateful and loving

people was really the essence of our

91

00:05:04,546 --> 00:05:08,605

existence. So are we all liars? Yes.

92

00:05:09,345 --> 00:05:13,964

In that context, we're liars. We

confuse our opinion with the truth.

93

00:05:14,745 --> 00:05:19,485

We have a subjective bias instead

of an objective awareness. Now,

94

00:05:19,625 --> 00:05:22,365

can we actually have a

moment of objectivity? Yes.

95

00:05:22,945 --> 00:05:25,325

Can we have a moment of

unconditional love? Yes.

96

00:05:26,105 --> 00:05:29,045

Do we sustain it and live

that way 24 hours a day? No.

97

00:05:29,985 --> 00:05:31,525

But can we have a moment of that? Yes.

98

00:05:32,065 --> 00:05:36,645

And are we in a state of gratitude and

love and inspiration and enthusiasm and

99

00:05:36,646 --> 00:05:40,525

certainty and presence when we're

there and maximizing our potential and

100

00:05:40,835 --> 00:05:45,285

actualizing our authenticity in that

moment? Yes. Do we have a moment of truth?

101

00:05:45,464 --> 00:05:49,605

Yes. Do we lie most of

the time? Yes. <laugh>,

102

00:05:50,235 --> 00:05:53,805

most of the time we're lying about our

existence. We're constantly going around,

103

00:05:53,806 --> 00:05:57,685

we walk in a mall and we exaggerate people

and minimize people and judge people

104

00:05:57,865 --> 00:06:01,645

and living in this strife constantly.

105

00:06:02,305 --> 00:06:06,325

We have internal strife as Empedocles

said, instead of a moment of love.

106

00:06:07,225 --> 00:06:10,205

In a moment of love, we

have gnosis. We know things.

107

00:06:10,675 --> 00:06:13,605

When we're infatuated and we're blind to

the downside, we don't know the person.

108

00:06:13,606 --> 00:06:16,565

When we're resentful and we're blind to

the upside, we don't know the person.

109

00:06:16,955 --> 00:06:18,845

When we love the person,

we get to know the person.

110

00:06:18,945 --> 00:06:22,685

We get to see both sides

simultaneously. Wilhelm Wundt said,

111

00:06:22,985 --> 00:06:27,805

the simultaneity of these complementary

opposites is what our maximum potential

112

00:06:27,806 --> 00:06:28,639

is.

113

00:06:28,705 --> 00:06:33,085

The speed in which we see both sides of

an event or an individual is the wisdom

114

00:06:33,145 --> 00:06:34,125

we have in life.

115

00:06:34,464 --> 00:06:38,205

If it takes us weeks to see the downside

of somebody we're infatuated or weeks

116

00:06:38,225 --> 00:06:41,285

to see the upside of the person

we resent, we're not too bright,

117

00:06:41,575 --> 00:06:45,605

we're a bit dense, we're weighed down

with our gravitational emotional baggage,

118

00:06:45,875 --> 00:06:49,045

instead of lightened up with our

love and pure reflective awareness.

119

00:06:50,395 --> 00:06:54,415

So are we liars? Yes. Do

we lie? Yes. Why do we lie?

120

00:06:55,125 --> 00:06:58,705

We lie because we want to protect

ourselves. Now let's elaborate on that.

121

00:06:59,055 --> 00:07:00,625

When we're infatuated with somebody,

122

00:07:00,626 --> 00:07:03,425

they represent prey and

we want to consume them.

123

00:07:03,815 --> 00:07:06,585

When you're infatuated you want to

eat them, you want to consume them,

124

00:07:06,586 --> 00:07:10,145

you want to kiss them, you want to

suckle on them. When you're resentful,

125

00:07:10,146 --> 00:07:13,305

you want get rid of them, they're

predator, you want to avoid them.

126

00:07:13,305 --> 00:07:16,585

Ou ramygdala wants to seek the

prey and avoid the predator,

127

00:07:16,785 --> 00:07:20,345

seek the ease and avoid the difficulty,

seek the pleasure, avoid the pain,

128

00:07:20,895 --> 00:07:22,865

seek the philias and avoid the phobias.

129

00:07:23,485 --> 00:07:27,705

And it's basically polarizing us instead

of integrating us and synthesizing us.

130

00:07:28,405 --> 00:07:31,665

The more we try to be one side

and try to get the infatuation,

131

00:07:32,125 --> 00:07:35,025

the more we discover that

our infatuation blinded us.

132

00:07:35,325 --> 00:07:37,985

And we eventually get over there and

discover it wasn't what we thought.

133

00:07:38,605 --> 00:07:39,585

The fatal attraction.

134

00:07:40,545 --> 00:07:44,125

And so we have ignorance

when we're infatuated and

we have ignorance when we're

135

00:07:44,126 --> 00:07:46,645

resentful. And we basically, you know,

136

00:07:46,685 --> 00:07:50,085

a master martial artist isn't

frightened by a phobic state,

137

00:07:50,135 --> 00:07:53,285

isn't frightened by a predator,

they're ready to invite to dance.

138

00:07:53,445 --> 00:07:57,125

I learned from my master martial artist

many years ago when I was doing martial

139

00:07:57,235 --> 00:08:00,445

arts <laugh>. They said to a neophyte,

140

00:08:00,705 --> 00:08:04,165

you assume you're being attacked

by a predator. But to the master,

141

00:08:04,166 --> 00:08:08,165

you're invited to dance because you're

totally prepared and whatever they're

142

00:08:08,166 --> 00:08:10,645

going to do, you're prepared for

it. So you don't see it as a threat.

143

00:08:11,345 --> 00:08:12,645

So therefore there's no threat.

144

00:08:12,945 --> 00:08:15,405

You also know that the person

that you're infatuated with,

145

00:08:15,406 --> 00:08:19,365

that you're blind to is not

your friend. Be cautious.

146

00:08:19,915 --> 00:08:24,445

Make sure you keep your

unattached position in the

middle path of the Buddha it

147

00:08:24,446 --> 00:08:25,279

says,

148

00:08:25,325 --> 00:08:28,285

the desire for that which is unobtainable

and the desire to avoid that which is

149

00:08:28,286 --> 00:08:32,085

unavoidable is the source of human

suffering. So those are all our lies.

150

00:08:33,025 --> 00:08:35,245

Now the question is, do we have

the courage to be truthful?

151

00:08:35,665 --> 00:08:37,405

Do we have the courage

to integrate ourselves?

152

00:08:37,915 --> 00:08:41,485

When we live by priority and we're

more objective and we see both sides

153

00:08:41,486 --> 00:08:46,485

simultaneously and we mitigate our

risks and we calm down our infatuations

154

00:08:46,545 --> 00:08:48,684

and our resentments and

have self-governance,

155

00:08:49,025 --> 00:08:51,125

we have a higher

probability of authenticity,

156

00:08:51,445 --> 00:08:54,405

a higher probability of

walking a path of truthfulness,

157

00:08:55,225 --> 00:08:57,045

and a higher probability of self-worth,

158

00:08:57,605 --> 00:08:59,205

because our self-worth

is a reflection of that.

159

00:08:59,985 --> 00:09:01,684

But most of the time we're not doing that.

160

00:09:01,685 --> 00:09:03,085

We're living in lower priority things.

161

00:09:03,095 --> 00:09:07,125

We're subordinating to outer authorities

trying to live in other people's lives,

162

00:09:07,145 --> 00:09:10,645

trying to be second at being ourselves

and others instead of being first at

163

00:09:10,646 --> 00:09:14,045

being ourselves. And we end

up not empowering our life.

164

00:09:14,345 --> 00:09:17,325

And then we're sitting there with our

opinions and we think those are truths,

165

00:09:17,326 --> 00:09:19,765

but they're really just opinions.

You see this in politics.

166

00:09:19,766 --> 00:09:20,725

You see this in religion.

167

00:09:20,785 --> 00:09:25,605

You see this in hypocrisies and

bigotries and racial discriminations and

168

00:09:25,865 --> 00:09:30,485

biases. These are basically

rampant lies about people.

169

00:09:31,515 --> 00:09:34,365

When you go to, you know, I'm

amazed, I've been to many countries,

170

00:09:34,965 --> 00:09:36,885

194 countries in my life,

and when I go there,

171

00:09:36,965 --> 00:09:41,765

I find out that every human being that

I meet basically wants to survive and

172

00:09:41,795 --> 00:09:45,565

provide for their family and do things,

are loving individuals, et cetera.

173

00:09:45,865 --> 00:09:47,885

But if you go on the media,

you find out, well no,

174

00:09:47,886 --> 00:09:50,285

those are all those people

over there are bad. No,

175

00:09:51,035 --> 00:09:54,125

I've been to Iran andI hear in

the media, well Iran is this,

176

00:09:54,225 --> 00:09:56,725

but I go there I meet people

that are lovely people there.

177

00:09:57,365 --> 00:10:00,365

And India and Saudi Arabia

and Japan and New Zealand.

178

00:10:00,366 --> 00:10:02,045

Everywhere I meet is lovely people.

179

00:10:02,985 --> 00:10:06,245

If I am basically realizing that they're

reflections of me and I get to love

180

00:10:06,246 --> 00:10:08,765

them and love me, I get to

have a great, magnificent,

181

00:10:09,085 --> 00:10:12,165

thankful experience in life. And

I get to see the truth about life.

182

00:10:12,785 --> 00:10:16,525

But we go through and allow our biases

to misinterpret reality and we end up

183

00:10:16,526 --> 00:10:19,205

having these clashes and

this strife in our life,

184

00:10:19,206 --> 00:10:23,725

only because we didn't take the time to

answer questions that brought our mind

185

00:10:23,726 --> 00:10:25,365

back into balance and

held ourself accountable.

186

00:10:26,245 --> 00:10:29,245

I teach a class called the

Breakthrough Experience. That class,

187

00:10:29,405 --> 00:10:31,405

I have a method in there

called the Demartini Method.

188

00:10:31,755 --> 00:10:36,325

It's a series of questions that hold

you accountable to see both sides

189

00:10:36,326 --> 00:10:41,045

simultaneously and to be able

to have reflective awareness and

190

00:10:41,046 --> 00:10:45,085

dissolve the fantasies and

resentments and the nightmares and

191

00:10:45,835 --> 00:10:48,125

admirations and things

that you have about life.

192

00:10:48,585 --> 00:10:53,565

And dissolve that and get present

and get grateful and see life as

193

00:10:53,566 --> 00:10:57,684

it actually is, instead of as you

perceive it to be and have distortions of.

194

00:10:58,425 --> 00:11:00,885

The moment you actually do that,

you actually have a moment of truth.

195

00:11:01,985 --> 00:11:06,525

Now the reason why we lie is because we

think there's going to be more advantage

196

00:11:06,545 --> 00:11:07,925

than disadvantage at any moment.

197

00:11:08,265 --> 00:11:11,085

The reason why we tell the

truth is because we think

there's more advantage than

198

00:11:11,086 --> 00:11:11,919

disadvantage.

199

00:11:12,265 --> 00:11:15,405

But anytime we think

there's more advantage than

disadvantage in a world that's

200

00:11:15,406 --> 00:11:18,325

already balanced, we have a

lie. That's the challenge.

201

00:11:18,865 --> 00:11:22,445

So we go around and we deal with the

probability of the consequences. See,

202

00:11:22,766 --> 00:11:26,445

if we have a prey, we fear its loss.

We have a predator, we fear its gain.

203

00:11:26,865 --> 00:11:30,165

So we're making decisions to maximize

the prey and avoid the predator.

204

00:11:30,665 --> 00:11:33,285

So if we go in there and we

distort our perceptions of it,

205

00:11:33,286 --> 00:11:36,285

we're distorting our reactions

to it. And when we do,

206

00:11:36,286 --> 00:11:40,845

we're basically sitting there making

probabilistic kind of decision processes

207

00:11:40,846 --> 00:11:42,525

based on distorted information.

208

00:11:43,065 --> 00:11:46,085

And then we're eventually discovering

that our perception wasn't complete.

209

00:11:46,985 --> 00:11:51,725

So I'm a firm believer in

being accountable at asking

new sets of questions to

210

00:11:51,726 --> 00:11:54,725

be able to see both sides

of life simultaneously.

211

00:11:55,545 --> 00:11:57,285

That's why I teach the

Breakthrough Experience,

212

00:11:57,286 --> 00:12:01,445

to help people break through the

boundaries of these distortions and these

213

00:12:01,485 --> 00:12:03,005

opinions that they think are truth,

214

00:12:03,006 --> 00:12:06,525

that are actually just opinions

that hold them and bondage them.

215

00:12:06,905 --> 00:12:09,725

If you've ever been really infatuated

with somebody, you can't sleep at night,

216

00:12:09,835 --> 00:12:11,885

very resentful to somebody,

you can't sleep at night.

217

00:12:12,265 --> 00:12:14,325

But when you love somebody,

you sleep soundly.

218

00:12:14,835 --> 00:12:18,045

When you're authentic and have

the truth, you sleep soundly.

219

00:12:18,425 --> 00:12:21,765

The truth sets us free from the

bondage of those things we judge.

220

00:12:22,345 --> 00:12:27,125

As Empedocles said, love or strife. If

we live in strife and opinion and judge,

221

00:12:27,415 --> 00:12:32,045

we're trapped. When we live in love

and appreciation, we're liberated.

222

00:12:33,304 --> 00:12:38,045

Having the courage to actually see both

sides of an event and hold yourself

223

00:12:38,046 --> 00:12:38,566

accountable,

224

00:12:38,566 --> 00:12:41,005

that's what the Demartini Method in

the Breakthrough Experience is about,

225

00:12:41,006 --> 00:12:45,765

how to ask questions that allow you to

see both sides simultaneously so you're

226

00:12:45,766 --> 00:12:50,645

fully conscious and see things objectively

and see the truth of people and

227

00:12:50,745 --> 00:12:55,684

events, instead of sitting there having

biases that cause you to seek or avoid,

228

00:12:56,035 --> 00:12:58,725

impulse or instinct, infatuate or resent,

229

00:12:58,945 --> 00:13:02,245

and be extrinsically run by

misinterpretations of the outer world.

230

00:13:03,205 --> 00:13:06,165

I want you to have the voice and the

vision on the inside to be louder than

231

00:13:06,166 --> 00:13:07,365

opinions on the outside.

232

00:13:07,385 --> 00:13:11,045

And that occurs when you ask questions

that brought your mind into balance,

233

00:13:11,046 --> 00:13:15,285

so you're not reactive, you're proactive,

you're objective, not subjective,

234

00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:18,645

you're inspired instead of despired,

235

00:13:18,985 --> 00:13:20,525

and you're liberated

instead of in bondage.

236

00:13:21,345 --> 00:13:23,325

And you give yourself

permission to be yourself.

237

00:13:23,945 --> 00:13:26,285

And that's the true

power you have in life.

238

00:13:26,865 --> 00:13:30,045

The most magnificent truth you have

is to be willing to be yourself.

239

00:13:31,365 --> 00:13:34,085

And that's not going to occur as long

as you exaggerate or minimize people.

240

00:13:34,145 --> 00:13:37,245

Put people on pedestals or pits,

but put them in your heart.

241

00:13:37,905 --> 00:13:39,605

So that's why I teach the

Breakthrough Experience,

242

00:13:39,606 --> 00:13:44,325

to help people liberate themselves from

the lies of their life and to help them

243

00:13:44,326 --> 00:13:47,645

realize that most of our

life is subjectively biased,

244

00:13:47,945 --> 00:13:50,965

but we have moments of grace and we

can increase the probability of having

245

00:13:50,966 --> 00:13:54,684

moments of grace and moments of

love and authenticity and truth.

246

00:13:55,425 --> 00:13:58,045

We can have moments of that. We're not

going to live there 24 hours a day,

247

00:13:58,046 --> 00:14:00,165

but we can certainly have moments

of that. And those are healing,

248

00:14:00,905 --> 00:14:04,245

and those are empowering, and

those are really liberating.

249

00:14:04,705 --> 00:14:07,125

And I love helping people

get that realization,

250

00:14:07,625 --> 00:14:11,125

and know the distinctions and then know

the science of how to return to that.

251

00:14:11,465 --> 00:14:14,804

So no matter what happens in your life,

whatever perturbation you experience,

252

00:14:15,225 --> 00:14:17,765

how to turn it back into

something of poise and presence.

253

00:14:18,395 --> 00:14:23,345

When you're powerful and prioritize and

purposeful and patient and productive

254

00:14:23,365 --> 00:14:26,225

and empowered, you have

a pretty grateful life.

255

00:14:26,885 --> 00:14:29,345

So I teach people that in

the Breakthrough Experience,

256

00:14:29,346 --> 00:14:31,985

how to maintain that state

and increase that probability.

257

00:14:32,205 --> 00:14:34,985

You're going to be constantly bombarded

by things you're going to judge and

258

00:14:35,025 --> 00:14:37,225

unknowns. The moment you know something,

259

00:14:37,226 --> 00:14:39,745

you're going to get promoted to the

next unknown and judge some more.

260

00:14:40,325 --> 00:14:43,985

The key is to come and bring that

back down into seeing both sides

261

00:14:43,986 --> 00:14:48,545

simultaneously and loving it. See

things as they are, not as you project,

262

00:14:49,265 --> 00:14:53,405

liberates you from a lot of the emotional

baggage and bondage that trap you

263

00:14:54,065 --> 00:14:58,365

in kind of the the mortal world that

ages you instead of liberating you for

264

00:14:58,715 --> 00:15:01,205

something that's really deeply

meaningful and inspiring.

265

00:15:01,545 --> 00:15:04,445

The mean is the mean between

the pairs of opposites.

266

00:15:04,515 --> 00:15:08,685

Knowing how to ask the questions to see

the balance of opposites simultaneously

267

00:15:09,405 --> 00:15:12,805

I teach in the Breakthrough Experience.

That is very powerful. It's a science,

268

00:15:12,905 --> 00:15:17,005

it works, it reproduces,

it's duplicatable. I've

translated, I've shared it.

269

00:15:17,006 --> 00:15:20,445

I've got 7,000 something people out

there working with it, using it,

270

00:15:20,885 --> 00:15:24,285

training other people on it. I'm certain

it can make a difference in your life.

271

00:15:24,315 --> 00:15:26,685

I've seen it. I've watched lives

change right in front of my eyes.

272

00:15:27,345 --> 00:15:29,805

So if you'd like to be able

to have a more empowered life,

273

00:15:29,825 --> 00:15:32,645

if you'd like to be able to see

the truth of your own magnificence,

274

00:15:33,385 --> 00:15:35,885

the truth of your own magnificence and

the truth of the magnificence of the

275

00:15:35,886 --> 00:15:39,765

people around you, and transcend

the judgments that embondage you,

276

00:15:40,275 --> 00:15:41,108

come to the Breakthrough Experience.

277

00:15:41,785 --> 00:15:44,605

And let me show you the Demartini Method

and how to transcend that with the

278

00:15:44,725 --> 00:15:45,085

questions.

279

00:15:45,085 --> 00:15:47,165

The quality of your life's based on

the quality of the questions you ask.

280

00:15:47,505 --> 00:15:51,245

The questions you have in life make you

conscious of things you were unconscious

281

00:15:51,246 --> 00:15:55,725

of that keep you in bondage,

keep you emotionally distracted,

282

00:15:56,595 --> 00:16:01,205

keep you in the impulsive, you know,

the instinctual animal effective nature,

283

00:16:01,715 --> 00:16:04,085

instead of the angelical awareness nature,

284

00:16:04,105 --> 00:16:06,725

the full conscious state that

you have available to you.

285

00:16:07,545 --> 00:16:11,605

So if you'd like to be able to go and

have a moment of grace, a moment of truth,

286

00:16:12,175 --> 00:16:14,845

great. But just know that

every decision you make,

287

00:16:14,855 --> 00:16:16,965

don't ever expect somebody

to be always truthful.

288

00:16:17,705 --> 00:16:20,125

Expect people to do whatever they think

that's going to give them the greatest

289

00:16:20,126 --> 00:16:23,125

advantage at any moment in time.

That's what you can expect.

290

00:16:23,395 --> 00:16:26,645

They don't betray you, you do when you

expect them to live in your values.

291

00:16:27,155 --> 00:16:30,965

They live in their own values, not yours.

You live in your values, not theirs.

292

00:16:31,345 --> 00:16:34,325

If you expect you to live in their

values, you have a distortion.

293

00:16:34,326 --> 00:16:36,565

If you expect them to live in your

values, you have a distortion.

294

00:16:36,995 --> 00:16:40,285

When you expect each other to live in

each other's values, you have that,

295

00:16:40,475 --> 00:16:43,525

when you expect you to live

in yours and them in theirs,

296

00:16:43,526 --> 00:16:46,965

and you learn to communicate what you

do in terms of what they're doing,

297

00:16:46,966 --> 00:16:51,685

you open the doorway for communication

and then they have a higher probability

298

00:16:51,686 --> 00:16:53,485

of being authentic as you are authentic.

299

00:16:53,785 --> 00:16:56,085

And then you have a truthful

and integral relationship,

300

00:16:56,545 --> 00:16:59,005

and have a dialogue instead

of an alternating monologue.

301

00:16:59,145 --> 00:17:03,325

And you're liberated and appreciated and

you honor the magnificence in them as

302

00:17:03,326 --> 00:17:05,205

you live the magnificence in you.

303

00:17:05,865 --> 00:17:07,325

That's what I want to teach you

in the Breakthrough Experience.

304

00:17:08,465 --> 00:17:10,765

And so if you've got something

outta this little presentation,

305

00:17:10,766 --> 00:17:14,725

you're going to get a lot more in

a 25 hour experience with me in the

306

00:17:14,725 --> 00:17:17,244

Breakthrough Experience. So

thank you for joining me today.

307

00:17:17,515 --> 00:17:18,405

Look forward to seeing you there.

308

00:17:19,085 --> 00:17:22,645

I can't wait to bring this tool to

you so you can transform your life.
