  1. 0:00Good morning, trillionaire. Yes, I am
  2. 0:02talking to you. The one with $10 in the
  3. 0:05account, two unpaid subscriptions, and a
  4. 0:07fridge that holds nothing but water and
  5. 0:09a lonely onion. I called you a
  6. 0:11trillionaire, and something inside you
  7. 0:13either smiled or rolled its eyes so hard
  8. 0:15it nearly fell out of your head. Both
  9. 0:17reactions are welcome here because both
  10. 0:20of them tell me exactly where you stand
  11. 0:21with money. And by the end of our time
  12. 0:24together, I want that eye roll to become
  13. 0:26a quiet, knowing smile. [music] Not
  14. 0:28because your bank balance changed in the
  15. 0:30next 20 minutes, but because you did.
  16. 0:33Here is what happened. One ordinary
  17. 0:36morning, I decided I was rich. Not that
  18. 0:39I would be rich someday. When the stars
  19. 0:41aligned and a distant uncle left me an
  20. 0:43oil field, I decided I was rich now. And
  21. 0:47everything changed. The money did not
  22. 0:50fall from the ceiling that afternoon. No
  23. 0:52angel arrived with a briefcase, but the
  24. 0:55way I walked into a room changed. The
  25. 0:57way I spoke about bills changed. [music]
  26. 1:00The way I treated a single coin changed.
  27. 1:03And slowly, then suddenly, the outer
  28. 1:06world began to rearrange itself to match
  29. 1:08the inner decision. That is the game of
  30. 1:10life. And today, I am going to teach you
  31. 1:12how to play it. Now, before we go any
  32. 1:15further, [music] I must tell you about
  33. 1:17two companions for this journey. Many of
  34. 1:19you have written to me asking where do I
  35. 1:22even begin? [music] I hear these ideas
  36. 1:24and I feel wonderful for an hour and
  37. 1:26then life knocks on the door with a rent
  38. 1:28notice and I forget everything. I
  39. 1:31understand completely. That is exactly
  40. 1:33why we created the command and manifest
  41. 1:35ebook. It is a guide that walks you
  42. 1:38through your manifestation journey step
  43. 1:40by step. So the ideas do not simply
  44. 1:42float above your head like pretty clouds
  45. 1:44but come down and settle into your daily
  46. 1:47life. And alongside it, we created the
  47. 1:5030 days manifestation journal. The ebook
  48. 1:53teaches you the principles. The journal
  49. 1:55makes you practice them. One is the map,
  50. 1:58the other is the walking shoes. Read a
  51. 2:01little from the ebook each morning.
  52. 2:03Write in the journal each evening and in
  53. 2:0530 days you will look back and hardly
  54. 2:07recognize the person who started. The
  55. 2:09link to both is in the description. Use
  56. 2:12them together because knowing without
  57. 2:14doing is like owning a car and pushing
  58. 2:16it everywhere. Now let us talk about
  59. 2:19you. I know your struggle and I want you
  60. 2:22to know that I am not laughing at it. I
  61. 2:25have watched people sit with a
  62. 2:26calculator at midnight adding the same
  63. 2:29numbers again and again as if they might
  64. 2:31change their minds. [music] I have seen
  65. 2:33the face someone makes when their card
  66. 2:36is declined in front of a queue of
  67. 2:38strangers. That small hot feeling in the
  68. 2:41cheeks. The cashier pretending [music]
  69. 2:43not to look. you pretending you meant to
  70. 2:45try another card when you know very well
  71. 2:48there is no other card. I know the
  72. 2:50friend who always says, "I'll pay you
  73. 2:52back next week." And I know the person
  74. 2:54who has heard that sentence so many
  75. 2:56times they could set it to music. And I
  76. 2:58know the deeper struggle, too, the one
  77. 3:00nobody talks about at parties. It is the
  78. 3:03tiredness. You have read the books. You
  79. 3:06have watched the videos. You have
  80. 3:08written your goals on a beautiful piece
  81. 3:10of paper and stuck it on the wall where
  82. 3:12it now watches you eat noodles every
  83. 3:14night like a disappointed parent. You
  84. 3:17have tried to think positive and found
  85. 3:19that your thoughts are not very
  86. 3:20interested in being positive. Thank you
  87. 3:22very much. So if you feel a little
  88. 3:24suspicious when someone says just decide
  89. 3:26you are rich, I respect that. Suspicion
  90. 3:30is simply a mind that has been hurt
  91. 3:32before and does not want to be fooled
  92. 3:34again. So, let me be honest with you
  93. 3:37because honesty is the beginning of
  94. 3:38every true demonstration.
  95. 3:40Deciding you are rich is not pretending.
  96. 3:44It is not lying to your landlord. It is
  97. 3:46not walking into a car showroom and
  98. 3:48signing papers you cannot honor. That is
  99. 3:50not faith, my dear. [music] That is
  100. 3:52foolishness wearing faith's clothes.
  101. 3:54Deciding you are rich is something far
  102. 3:56more powerful and far more quiet. It is
  103. 3:59changing the place you think from. Let
  104. 4:01me explain. Most people think about
  105. 4:03money from a place of lack. They look at
  106. 4:06their situation and they say, "I don't
  107. 4:09have enough. Therefore, I must worry.
  108. 4:11Therefore, I [music] must grab.
  109. 4:13Therefore, I must fear." And every
  110. 4:15thought that begins in lack ends in more
  111. 4:17lack. Because whatever we dwell upon, we
  112. 4:20draw toward us. The man who is
  113. 4:22constantly saying, "I can't afford it,"
  114. 4:24is not simply describing his life. He is
  115. 4:27ordering more of it. His word is his
  116. 4:30wand and he is waving it over his own
  117. 4:32head every day casting a little spell of
  118. 4:35poverty. That is your core challenge.
  119. 4:38Not the economy, not your boss, not the
  120. 4:41exchange rate. Though I know it has been
  121. 4:43behaving very badly. The core challenge
  122. 4:45is that your inner picture of yourself
  123. 4:47is a poor picture and life faithfully
  124. 4:49develops whatever picture you hold. You
  125. 4:52are like a photographer who keeps
  126. 4:53photographing an empty room and then
  127. 4:55complaining that the album has no people
  128. 4:57in it. Why does this matter so much?
  129. 5:00Because every opportunity that comes to
  130. 5:02you is filtered through that picture.
  131. 5:04The poor picture sees a job offer and
  132. 5:06says, "They won't pick me." The poor
  133. 5:09picture sees a business idea and says,
  134. 5:12[music]
  135. 5:13"People like me don't do things like
  136. 5:15that." The poor picture receives a gift
  137. 5:17and says, "Oh, no, you shouldn't have."
  138. 5:20And pushes it away. The poor picture
  139. 5:22even sees a coin on the ground and walks
  140. 5:24past it, [music] saying, "It's only
  141. 5:26small money." And the universe, which is
  142. 5:29very polite, says, "Very well, I shall
  143. 5:32stop sending small money. And since you
  144. 5:35have no use for small money, [music] we
  145. 5:37shall not trouble you with big money
  146. 5:38either." I once knew a woman, a sweet,
  147. 5:41hardworking woman who was always in
  148. 5:43need. Every time we spoke, she was
  149. 5:46waiting for something, waiting for a
  150. 5:48payment, waiting for a break, waiting
  151. 5:50for her husband to find work. One day, I
  152. 5:53noticed that she kept her purse in a
  153. 5:55terrible state. [music]
  154. 5:56old receipts, broken pens, coins
  155. 5:59rattling at the bottom like prisoners.
  156. 6:01She would dig through it apologetically
  157. 6:04every time she needed to pay for
  158. 6:05anything. I said to her, "How do you
  159. 6:08expect money to come and live with you
  160. 6:09when you have given it such a shabby
  161. 6:11home?" She laughed, but she went home
  162. 6:14and cleaned that purse. She folded her
  163. 6:16notes neatly, faces all turned the same
  164. 6:18way. [music] She put a small note inside
  165. 6:20that read, "I am a magnet for divine
  166. 6:23abundance." Silly, perhaps, but within a
  167. 6:26few weeks, an old debt she had long
  168. 6:29forgotten was repaid to her, and a small
  169. 6:31contract came her way through a
  170. 6:32neighbor. Was it the purse? No, it
  171. 6:36[music] was the woman. The purse was
  172. 6:38simply the first place she practiced
  173. 6:40being rich, and the universe noticed the
  174. 6:43change in her heart. Now, [music] I
  175. 6:45promised you a framework, something
  176. 6:46simple you can hold in your hand like a
  177. 6:48key. Here it is. I call it the three
  178. 6:51rooms of riches. Decide, prepare, and
  179. 6:54receive. The first room is decide. Every
  180. 6:57outer change begins as an inner
  181. 6:59decision. Science even agrees with us
  182. 7:02here in its own careful way. The mind
  183. 7:04has a kind of filter, sometimes called
  184. 7:07the reticular activating system, which
  185. 7:09decides what you notice out of the
  186. 7:11millions of things around you. You know
  187. 7:13how it works. The moment you decide to
  188. 7:16buy a certain kind of car, suddenly you
  189. 7:18see that car everywhere. The cars did
  190. 7:21not multiply overnight. Your attention
  191. 7:23changed. When you decide you are rich,
  192. 7:26your filter begins to notice
  193. 7:28opportunity, resources, and ideas that
  194. 7:31were always there but invisible to the
  195. 7:33poor picture. The decision does not
  196. 7:36create the river. It opens your eyes to
  197. 7:38the river that has been running past
  198. 7:39your house all along. And from the
  199. 7:41spiritual side, which is my home, the
  200. 7:44decision is a seed planted in the
  201. 7:46subconscious mind. The subconscious is a
  202. 7:49faithful servant, but it has no sense of
  203. 7:52humor. It takes everything you say
  204. 7:54literally. If you say, "I'm dying to go
  205. 7:57on holiday," it hears dying. If you say,
  206. 8:00"This bill is killing me," it begins
  207. 8:02arranging the funeral. If you say, "I'm
  208. 8:05always broke," it says, "Yes, madam,"
  209. 8:08right away, and keeps you broke with
  210. 8:09great efficiency. So we must speak to it
  211. 8:12carefully the way you would speak to a
  212. 8:14very obedient child who believes
  213. 8:16everything you say. So the decision
  214. 8:21tonight before you sleep say quietly and
  215. 8:24with feeling I am rich in mind, rich in
  216. 8:28spirit [music] and rich in substance.
  217. 8:31Divine supply flows to me now under
  218. 8:33[music] grace in perfect ways. Notice I
  219. 8:36did not say I hope to be rich. Hoping is
  220. 8:39standing at the door. Deciding is
  221. 8:41walking through it. [music] And notice
  222. 8:43the words under grace. In perfect ways.
  223. 8:46That is important. We do not want money
  224. 8:49that comes through someone's accident or
  225. 8:51misfortune. We want it to come in a way
  226. 8:53that blesses everyone. Infinite
  227. 8:55intelligence has a thousand doors you
  228. 8:57cannot see, and it does not need your
  229. 8:59advice on which one to open. Now,
  230. 9:01[music]
  231. 9:02here is where many people stop. And here
  232. 9:04is why their decision fades like a
  233. 9:06sticker in the sun.
  234. 9:08They [music] decide and then they go
  235. 9:10right back to behaving like a poor
  236. 9:12person. Which brings us to the second
  237. 9:14room. Prepare. There is a beautiful
  238. 9:16story in the Bible. Three kings were in
  239. 9:19the desert with their armies and there
  240. 9:20was no water. Men were thirsty. Animals
  241. 9:23were [music] thirsty. Everyone was ready
  242. 9:25to give up. They went to the prophet
  243. 9:27Elisha. And he gave them the strangest
  244. 9:30instruction. He said, [music] "Make this
  245. 9:32valley full of ditches. Not pray harder.
  246. 9:36not wait patiently, dig ditches in a dry
  247. 9:40valley with no rain in sight, no clouds,
  248. 9:43not even a whisper of wind. And then he
  249. 9:46said, "You shall see neither wind nor
  250. 9:48rain, yet the valley shall be filled
  251. 9:50with water." They dug and the water
  252. 9:54came. My dear friend, this is the
  253. 9:56secret. You must dig your ditches. You
  254. 9:58must prepare for the abundance you are
  255. 10:00asking for as though it is already on
  256. 10:02its way because it is. Preparation is
  257. 10:04faith with its sleeves rolled up. What
  258. 10:07does digging ditches look like in your
  259. 10:09life? It looks like opening that savings
  260. 10:11account. Even if you can only put in a
  261. 10:14small amount, the amount is not the
  262. 10:16point. You are telling [music] the
  263. 10:17universe, "I am ready to hold more. It
  264. 10:21looks like learning the skill that the
  265. 10:22richer version of you would already
  266. 10:24have. It looks like cleaning the room
  267. 10:26where you work so that success has
  268. 10:28somewhere to sit when it arrives. It
  269. 10:30looks like writing the business plan you
  270. 10:32keep saying you will write when you have
  271. 10:34the money. No, darling, [music]
  272. 10:36you write the plan first. The money
  273. 10:39looks for a plan to land on. Money is
  274. 10:41like a bird. It does not land on empty
  275. 10:43air. [music] I knew a young man who
  276. 10:45wanted to be a speaker. He had no
  277. 10:48audience, no invitations, nothing. But
  278. 10:51every morning he put on a pressed shirt
  279. 10:52and practiced his talk in front of the
  280. 10:54mirror as if he were addressing a hall
  281. 10:56of [music] a thousand people. His family
  282. 10:59thought he had gone a little strange.
  283. 11:01His brother would knock on the door and
  284. 11:03say, [music] "Are you talking to the
  285. 11:04mirror again? Has it asked you any
  286. 11:06questions yet?" But he was digging
  287. 11:08[music] his ditch. And when the
  288. 11:10unexpected call came, a speaker had
  289. 11:12canceled at the last minute, and the
  290. 11:14organizer needed someone that same
  291. 11:16afternoon. He was the only person ready.
  292. 11:18[music] He did not need time to prepare.
  293. 11:20He had been preparing for months. The
  294. 11:23water came because the ditch [music] was
  295. 11:24waiting. So, I want you to ask yourself
  296. 11:27very honestly, if a large sum of money
  297. 11:30arrived tomorrow, would you be ready?
  298. 11:32Would you know what to do with it? Or
  299. 11:34would it slip through your fingers like
  300. 11:36water through a basket? Most people who
  301. 11:38win large sums of money without inner
  302. 11:40preparation lose it within a few years.
  303. 11:43Why? Because the outer riches arrived,
  304. 11:45but the inner picture was still poor.
  305. 11:48And the picture always wins. [music]
  306. 11:50Always. You cannot hold in your hand
  307. 11:52what you cannot hold in your mind. Now
  308. 11:55the third room, receive. [music]
  309. 11:57And I promise you this is where most
  310. 11:59people trip over their own feet. You
  311. 12:01would think receiving would be the easy
  312. 12:03part. Who doesn't want to receive? But
  313. 12:05watch yourself this week and you will be
  314. 12:08amazed. Someone compliments your outfit
  315. 12:10and you say, "Oh, this old thing. I got
  316. 12:15it cheap." [music] Someone offers to pay
  317. 12:17for your lunch and you fight them for
  318. 12:19the bill as if your honor depends on it.
  319. 12:22Someone says, "You did a wonderful job."
  320. 12:25And you say, [music] "It was nothing
  321. 12:28really, darling. It was not nothing. You
  322. 12:31stayed up until 2 in the morning on it."
  323. 12:34Every time you push away a small good,
  324. 12:36you are teaching [music] the universe
  325. 12:37that you do not accept delivery. And the
  326. 12:40universe, being very well-mannered,
  327. 12:43stops knocking. Practice receiving
  328. 12:45gracefully. When someone compliments
  329. 12:47you, say, "Thank you." [music] Full
  330. 12:50stop. Do not add a footnote. When a gift
  331. 12:53arrives, accept it with joy. When you
  332. 12:55find a coin on the street, pick it up
  333. 12:57and say, "Thank you, Father, for this
  334. 13:00sign of abundance. I am serious." Some
  335. 13:03people would walk past a coin, but they
  336. 13:06would sprint after a bus. Treat every
  337. 13:08small blessing as a messenger [music]
  338. 13:10because that is exactly what it is.
  339. 13:13Small money is big money's scout. It
  340. 13:15comes ahead to see if the place is
  341. 13:17welcoming. And here is the companion of
  342. 13:19receiving which is gratitude. Gratitude
  343. 13:22is the fastest way from feeling poor to
  344. 13:24feeling rich. And it costs absolutely
  345. 13:27nothing which makes it very good for
  346. 13:29people on a budget. Begin [music] with
  347. 13:31what you have. You have breath in your
  348. 13:34lungs. You have eyes reading or ears
  349. 13:37listening right now. You have a roof or
  350. 13:40at least the memory of one and the hope
  351. 13:42of a better one. When you give thanks
  352. 13:44for what you have, you are standing in
  353. 13:47the room of riches already. You are
  354. 13:50saying, [music] "I am a person who has."
  355. 13:52And life listens to that sentence and
  356. 13:55brings you more to have. There is also
  357. 13:57giving which seems strange when you feel
  358. 14:00you have so little. But giving is the
  359. 14:02great declaration of a rich mind. A poor
  360. 14:05mind says, "I cannot give. I have
  361. 14:08nothing." A rich mind says, "I give
  362. 14:12because there is always more." When you
  363. 14:14give, even a little with a glad heart,
  364. 14:17you open [music] the channel. Supply is
  365. 14:20like a pipe. If you clog one end because
  366. 14:23you are afraid to let anything out,
  367. 14:25nothing new can come in. The gladness
  368. 14:27matters more than the amount. [music]
  369. 14:29Giving with a grudge is like sending a
  370. 14:31beautiful gift wrapped in a dirty
  371. 14:33newspaper. Now I can hear some of you
  372. 14:36saying this is lovely but what about the
  373. 14:38bills? The bills are not interested
  374. 14:40[music] in my inner picture. Ah my
  375. 14:42friend the bills are your best teachers.
  376. 14:45Here is a practice that changed the
  377. 14:46lives of many people I have known. When
  378. 14:49a bill arrives instead of groaning and
  379. 14:52feeling that heavy [music] sinking in
  380. 14:53your stomach, bless it. Yes, bless the
  381. 14:57bill. Say thank you for the service this
  382. 15:00represents. I bless this [music] bill
  383. 15:02and I give thanks that it is paid in
  384. 15:04full by divine supply now. [music]
  385. 15:07The water you used, the electricity that
  386. 15:09lit your evenings, the phone that
  387. 15:11connected you to the people you love,
  388. 15:13those were gifts. And the bill is simply
  389. 15:16the receipt for a life being lived. When
  390. 15:19you bless the bill, you take the fear
  391. 15:21out of it. And fear is what freezes your
  392. 15:24thinking and blocks the very ideas that
  393. 15:26would pay it. And speaking of ideas, let
  394. 15:29me say this clearly because I would not
  395. 15:31want anyone to misunderstand me. [music]
  396. 15:34Deciding you are rich does not mean you
  397. 15:36stop working, stop learning or stop
  398. 15:39being wise with money. Riches come
  399. 15:41through channels and very often the
  400. 15:43channel is your own hands and your own
  401. 15:45mind. Infinite intelligence gives you
  402. 15:47the idea, the open door, the right
  403. 15:50person at the right time, but you must
  404. 15:52walk through the door. Faith without
  405. 15:54works is dead as the scripture says. The
  406. 15:57difference is that you are no longer
  407. 15:58working from fear, grinding yourself
  408. 16:00[music] to dust out of terror. You are
  409. 16:03working from expectancy. [music] Like a
  410. 16:06farmer who plants with joy because he
  411. 16:08knows the harvest is coming. Same field,
  412. 16:11same seeds, completely different farmer.
  413. 16:14Let me give you the most practical part
  414. 16:16of all. Here is a small daily rhythm.
  415. 16:19Use it and let your life become the
  416. 16:21evidence. In the morning, before you
  417. 16:23check your phone, before the news tells
  418. 16:26you how terrible everything is, speak
  419. 16:27your word. Say, [music]
  420. 16:29"I am rich in mind and spirit. Divine
  421. 16:32supply is my source. I am led to my
  422. 16:35right opportunities today." Then do one
  423. 16:38small thing that a rich-minded person
  424. 16:40would do. Make your bed as if royalty
  425. 16:43sleeps in it, because royalty does.
  426. 16:46Dress as though you have somewhere
  427. 16:48important to be because you do. You are
  428. 16:51going into your future during the day.
  429. 16:54Catch your poverty talk. This is the
  430. 16:56part where humor becomes your best
  431. 16:58[music] friend. Every time you hear
  432. 17:00yourself say, "I can't afford it."
  433. 17:03Gently correct yourself. Say instead, "I
  434. 17:07am choosing not to spend on that right
  435. 17:09now." Or, "That is coming to me in the
  436. 17:11right time." You will be surprised how
  437. 17:14often the old phrase pops out. The first
  438. 17:16week you may correct yourself 50 times a
  439. 17:19day. You will sound like a person
  440. 17:21arguing with a parrot. That is fine. The
  441. 17:24parrot is your old conditioning and it
  442. 17:26has been repeating the same lines for
  443. 17:28years. It will learn new words. Parrots
  444. 17:32are very teachable. If you are patient
  445. 17:35and in the evening write [music]
  446. 17:37three things you are grateful for, three
  447. 17:40signs of abundance you noticed no matter
  448. 17:42how small and one ditch you dug that
  449. 17:44day. A sign of abundance can be a free
  450. 17:47cup of tea, a kind word, a client who
  451. 17:50replied, a discount you did not expect.
  452. 17:53A ditch can be 10 minutes learning a
  453. 17:55skill, a small saving, a message sent to
  454. 17:59someone who could open a door. This is
  455. 18:01exactly what the 30 days manifestation
  456. 18:03journal is designed for. So [music] you
  457. 18:05do not have to invent the structure
  458. 18:07yourself. Just open it each evening and
  459. 18:09follow it. Now, I promised you the title
  460. 18:13of this talk would make sense. So let us
  461. 18:15speak about this word trillionaire. You
  462. 18:18may say, "Isn't that a bit much? [music]
  463. 18:20Couldn't we start with a modest
  464. 18:22millionaire?" Here is why I like the
  465. 18:24word. It is so large that your little
  466. 18:27doubting mind cannot argue with it
  467. 18:29properly. [music] It throws up its
  468. 18:30hands. When you say, "I am a
  469. 18:33trillionaire." You are not making a
  470. 18:35claim about your bank statement. You are
  471. 18:38making a claim about your supply. Your
  472. 18:40supply is God. And God is not running
  473. 18:43low. There is no recession in the divine
  474. 18:46mind. There is no inflation in infinite
  475. 18:48intelligence. The storehouse is
  476. 18:51unlimited. [music]
  477. 18:52And you are an heir to it. You are rich
  478. 18:55in the way the ocean is rich. Not
  479. 18:57because it has counted its water, but
  480. 19:00because it [music] never needs to. So
  481. 19:02when you say, "I am a trillionaire," say
  482. 19:04it with a smile, even a little laugh.
  483. 19:07Laughter is wonderful for
  484. 19:09demonstrations. It loosens the tight
  485. 19:11grip of fear and you cannot be terrified
  486. 19:14and amused at the same time. [music] Try
  487. 19:15it. Stand in front of your mirror
  488. 19:18tomorrow. Look yourself in the eye and
  489. 19:21say, "Good morning, trillionaire. What
  490. 19:23shall we create today?" You will
  491. 19:26probably laugh. Good. Keep laughing.
  492. 19:29Fear runs away from laughter like a cat
  493. 19:31from water. [music] I knew a man who was
  494. 19:33deeply in debt and terribly serious
  495. 19:36about it. He could not sleep, could not
  496. 19:38eat, could not think of anything else.
  497. 19:40He came to me with a face as long as a
  498. 19:43church service. I told him to treat his
  499. 19:45debts like a game, [music] to imagine he
  500. 19:47was a wealthy man playing at being poor,
  501. 19:49simply to see how he would handle it. He
  502. 19:51thought I was mad, but he tried it. He
  503. 19:54began to walk with his head up. He began
  504. 19:56to speak to his creditors calmly and
  505. 19:58pleasantly instead of hiding from their
  506. 20:00calls. He began to look for solutions
  507. 20:02instead of sinking into worry. Within a
  508. 20:04few months, through a series of ideas
  509. 20:06and opportunities he would never have
  510. 20:08seen in his frightened state, he cleared
  511. 20:10everything. He told me later, "The money
  512. 20:13didn't change first. I changed first and
  513. 20:15the money just caught up." That, my
  514. 20:18dear, is the whole teaching in one
  515. 20:20sentence. Before we finish, there is one
  516. 20:22more thing I want to warn you about
  517. 20:24because I care about you and I would
  518. 20:26like you to avoid the most common trap.
  519. 20:28[music] It is called looking back. Lot's
  520. 20:31wife looked back and became a pillar of
  521. 20:33salt. Many people today do the same
  522. 20:35thing with their money. They decide they
  523. 20:37are rich in the morning and by lunchtime
  524. 20:39they are looking at their account
  525. 20:40balance saying, "See, nothing has
  526. 20:44changed. It doesn't [music] work." And
  527. 20:47with that one look they turn their faith
  528. 20:49to salt. Do not dig up your seed every
  529. 20:52day to see if it is growing. You would
  530. 20:55never do that in a garden. Plant it.
  531. 20:58Water it with your words. Protect it
  532. 21:00with your gratitude and trust the soil.
  533. 21:03The appearance of lack is just
  534. 21:04yesterday's thinking showing up late,
  535. 21:06like a guest who didn't hear the party
  536. 21:08ended. Be polite to it, but do not
  537. 21:11invite it to stay. [music] When doubt
  538. 21:13comes, and it will come, say to it. I
  539. 21:17see [music] you, but I do not believe
  540. 21:19you. I stand on my word. Divine supply
  541. 21:22is mine now. Then go and dig another
  542. 21:25ditch. The best answer to doubt is
  543. 21:28action. Doubt hates movement. It prefers
  544. 21:32you sitting still and worrying because
  545. 21:34that is its natural habitat. Get up. Do
  546. 21:38the next small thing. And now, my
  547. 21:42friend, here is what I want you to do.
  548. 21:45Not tomorrow, [music]
  549. 21:47not next week when things calm down, but
  550. 21:50today. [music]
  551. 21:51Choose one small step from everything we
  552. 21:53have spoken about. Just one. Maybe it is
  553. 21:57cleaning your wallet and folding your
  554. 21:58notes neatly. Maybe it is blessing a
  555. 22:00bill instead of cursing it. Maybe it is
  556. 22:03saying good morning trillionaire to the
  557. 22:04mirror and [music] laughing at yourself.
  558. 22:07Maybe it is opening that savings account
  559. 22:09or writing the first page of the plan.
  560. 22:11Pick one and do it before the day ends.
  561. 22:14Then come down to the comments and tell
  562. 22:15me which one you chose. When you write
  563. 22:18it publicly, you are making a
  564. 22:20declaration and declarations have power.
  565. 22:23And who knows, your words may be the
  566. 22:26exact encouragement another viewer needs
  567. 22:28today. Here is a little affirmation to
  568. 22:30write in the comments. If you feel it in
  569. 22:32your heart, [music] type, I am rich in
  570. 22:35mind, rich in spirit, and rich in
  571. 22:37substance. Divine supply flows to me
  572. 22:40now. Read the comments of others too and
  573. 22:43say, "Amen to someone else's good."
  574. 22:47Rejoicing in another person's blessing
  575. 22:49is one of the shest ways to invite your
  576. 22:51own. Envy closes the door. Celebration
  577. 22:55throws it wide open. And remember, if
  578. 22:58you want to go deeper, the Command and
  579. 23:00Manifest ebook will guide you through
  580. 23:02your manifestation journey with the
  581. 23:04principles laid out clearly. And the 30
  582. 23:06days manifestation journal will hold you
  583. 23:09accountable [music] day by day so that
  584. 23:11this does not become another lovely idea
  585. 23:13that fades by Thursday. [music] The
  586. 23:15ebook is the teaching, the journal is
  587. 23:18the practice. Use them together for 30
  588. 23:20days. Both are linked in the
  589. 23:22description. 30 days from now, you will
  590. 23:25either have 30 days of evidence [music]
  591. 23:27or 30 days of excuses. And I know which
  592. 23:30one you deserve. So, let us close the
  593. 23:32way we opened. You decided you are rich.
  594. 23:36Not in a foolish way, not by spending
  595. 23:38what you do not have, but by changing
  596. 23:41the place you think from. You have three
  597. 23:43rooms to walk through every day. Decide
  598. 23:46by speaking your word with authority.
  599. 23:49Prepare by digging [music] your ditches
  600. 23:51before the rain and receive by accepting
  601. 23:55every good thing with a grateful open
  602. 23:57hand. Do that and watch how the outer
  603. 24:00world begins quietly at first to
  604. 24:04rearrange itself around your new inner
  605. 24:06picture. [music] People will start
  606. 24:08asking you what has changed. You seem
  607. 24:11different and you will smile [music]
  608. 24:13because you will know the money was the
  609. 24:16last thing to change. You were the
  610. 24:18first. If this message spoke to you,
  611. 24:20subscribe so you do not miss the next
  612. 24:23one because we are going to keep walking
  613. 24:25this road together. Press the
  614. 24:27notification bell so that the reminder
  615. 24:29finds you on the very day you need it
  616. 24:31most. Share this with the friend who
  617. 24:34always says, "I'm broke." And let them
  618. 24:36hear a better sentence. And above all,
  619. 24:39do your one small step today. You were
  620. 24:41never poor, my dear. You simply forgot
  621. 24:44who you were. Now you [music] remember.
  622. 24:47Go and live like it trillionaire.
