Hi, welcome to another episode of life changers, and this is Mike. Yeah, welcome back, I know, to this next episode, today's episode. Like I'm just going through a bunch of different things I want to talk about, but I think today we're gonna talk about Focus like it's one thing I'm learning more and more as I'm going through the lot life of law of attraction and Experimenting with it and all that is the points that I'm like the most successful where I'm like holy smokes, like I'm creating this is working, I'm attracting, I'm figuring out the frequencies and stuff. Like that is when you just set it and forget it and put it in the universe. And I may have roughly talked about this a few times in different episodes, but I'm gonna go more in depth and I might have used that term said and forget it. But yeah, it's like the one of those old infomercials said it and forget it. Oh yeah, congratulations. Shit, I'm sure my age, yeah, infomercials were a thing, probably still are, but I don't have real TV anymore. We just use all the different streaming services, any who?
Speaker 1:So my one of my kids, my daughter, was playing this game called the infinite tiles. We are not sponsored by any means by infinite tiles. But it's like the, you know, it's like they play music and he hit the tiles and they come through faster and faster and stuff like that. Right, and it's very fun. I was watching, I was like holy smokes man. Well, one of my daughters is going like super fast. I'm like, wow, that's amazing, I can never do that. And Then I was like the other day I was like, hey guys, let's have a, let's have an infinite tile battle off. And once again, I'm not sponsored by them, it's just, it's a fun little game, you know, whatever and and pretty much what it is like these tiles come down. You got to hit them in certain spots and yeah, I Don't know, it's good, I hand coordination, I guess I'm game and keep your brain Going, but anyways. And I was like, okay, let's do it, let's play, you know. And they're like, okay, you know, when I first tried, I got like three or four tiles to put on a hard one and and they're like, oh, hey, you know we could beat you and all my kids beat me.
Speaker 1:I was like, hmm, but when you're focused and this is where it gets interesting it's kind of tying this in with the lava traction and things, but when you focus on trying to find, to see all the tiles and trying to, and you're like I got hit this, I hit this one here, focus, trying to focus on it and just like you're Really like zoomed in on this thing and they're like they're trying to do it and you just keep on screwing up and get frustrated and angry and like I don't know, this is stupid, blah, blah, blah. Right, yeah, but the trick is with these games is you don't look when you're gonna be hitting the buttons, like the timing of that. I just kind of look and not pay attention to the game, like I just look at it and I look kind of higher up and I just know my, my hand will do the thing, and Just don't focus on trying To beat it, trying to win, trying to be amazing at it, and just do it. Just be like, yeah, I'm amazing, I'm good, yeah, so I Figure that I was like, okay, I'm gonna try that. So I look at my dad. I'm like let's do it again a little bit later. She's like, oh, yeah, you're gonna get more than three or seven this time. I'm like, yeah, I will, because I'm not gonna pay attention, I'm just gonna look, trust that my I hand coordination is spot on and I'm just gonna do it and not focus on trying to beat you or trying to hit the tiles. We're trying to get the timing right and just whatever. Just listen to the music and just stare above it into the distance, whatever. And sure enough my daughter's like huh, and I was like don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't. She's like even practicing. You figure I'm like no, I'm just not Trying. And then it's how you get it.
Speaker 1:And then the moment I start trying, I start panicking, the freaking out, like oh no, I'm not gonna do this. Look at that, he's grew up right. And that's exactly with the law of attraction. If you try to force Right things to happen your way, on your schedule and when you want it and stuff like that right, and you try to force it, it doesn't happen. You start panicking, freaking out and it's just ah right.
Speaker 1:The times where I'm like really like zoned in or vibing, or just really with the law of attraction and getting it all done up perfectly, is literally when you just do the simplest Methods of law of attraction in the world, which is literally Visualize what you want Right, think about what you want. Be like, that's what I want, that's what I'm gonna get, and Put it in the universe that you already have it and act like you do and set it, send it out into the universe, set it and forget it, right, and then, but it'll just. I know it sounds crazy, trust me, I Know it sounds really crazy, but that's how simple it is Because, like I mentioned a lot of my other episodes when I was trying to force like okay, you know, I got this amazing business, you know going on and I'm doing all this traveling and I got like the trucking company and shipping and all that going on. But, like I do all these big contracts, but they're by contracts, it's not like every day, like you know, as they say. Like you know, I'm gonna how I want, like the, I'm getting my bread and butter right, I got my basics covered, and then I that's when you like Focus on trying to grow the business and get like extra right. But like I'm just doing contract basis. So it's good money when you do like big contracts and you travel to places where nobody else wants to travel to, unlike dangerous roads and stuff, but it's not consistent. So I'm like you know, I want some consistent. I want something out for years because, you gotta understand, I'm I'm turned 40 this year and I've been doing this since I was 18 years old, like a lot of these commercial contracts and doing all the different things, right, but I'm like I need to figure out for years what I can do to make it consistent. Or I don't need to be, you know, there every day driving the trucks, or they're at the office every day, and so on.
Speaker 1:And then, like I mentioned to you in 2019 how it just finally just poof. I Was in the zone I was listening to I've um, or I finished listening to bring in the habit of being yourself. And I started listening to, like all the surrender experiment by Michael, a singer, and I mentioned to a few my episodes, but, and I was just like flowing and vibing and felt like, you know, I was finally connected to my higher self or to the universe, or to, you know, god, or whatever you want to call it right, and I was just flowing. And then it just hit me Like this is what you got to do, this is how you're gonna do it, and you gotta understand it didn't just hit me like a thug when I Like this is what was gonna happen.
Speaker 1:I saw it, I felt that, I experienced it and, like I mentioned in just like a couple episodes ago, like on no one of the embracing Serenity, you know, my journey through the 10-day meditation retreat. I mentioned there how I you know, I'm a visual thinker and things like I Don't know if everybody's the same way, but like one, I Hear things. Or somebody asks me for directions, I don't don't just tell them directions and I see the names of the streets, I tell them, like exactly how to get there. I'm driving in my head Like a Google map would, and I'm like doing it as I'm telling them, like I visualize. I see everything like that, right, so it's not just words that come into my head, it's like I literally experienced it, felt it and Just like whoa, and I just did it, no questions asked, and like I mentioned in my that episode, right, how, you know, I call my wife. I'm like honey, honey, honey, you know, and she's like, oh, I don't understand.
Speaker 1:To get to the point where I'm at and where I came from was a lot of trial and error, a lot of making mistakes, a lot of things, right, but once you figure it out and you know the path. You're like, oh yeah, this is easy. But just think about how you got there. And I literally just like, no, you don't understand. And I literally put it together within a month and a half and, like to test the concept I Call my buddies a lot the website together. I I actually talked to another person I knew who owns like a Like a peel box Business, you know, and I was like, hey, I'm gonna get a peel box here. I got all these packages shipped here. You're gonna weigh and measure them all and and email them to me every day and then I'll send you, like I'll send the customer scene voice, I'll send you the labels and you just, you know, put them in your outbound mail. He's like, okay, and I paid him, of course, and I did all that within a month and a half and I went on vacation and Then when I came back from vacation, I get a call like I can't keep up, like this is too busy.
Speaker 1:This is crazy. I'm like huh, and I didn't have another location of the warehouse, right, you know. I was like, okay, I understand, because his business was blowing up and mine was blowing up. And he's like I just can't keep up. I'm like no prom buddy.
Speaker 1:So I literally rented a truck, a, a straight truck, you know, 26 foot straight truck. I Drove over there, grabbed all the boxes, everything that he had, and I set it up like in the truck on the floor and I put my scale in there so I can weigh things. I got my measuring tape, I brought my laptop and a printer and Then, you know, I drove to a building I know and Was affiliated with and then I would like to run an extension car to the building, because they weren't open that day and this ran extents quarter the building so I could use the printer, use my laptop, and I broadcasted my Wi-Fi for my cell phone and that's how it started that project. And then Did that for a couple months and then we finally like once again, like I was trying, I was looking, I was like pushing hard, we need to find a warehouse like I'm an amazing business person, yeah, yeah, yeah, focus, focus, focus, right, and Nothing was common. Then I just okay, surrender, right, let go. This is what I already have a warehouse. That's gonna come my way. And, sure enough, outrighted that. Oh hey, I found a warehouse.
Speaker 1:So then I drove the two hours to go, look at it, talk to the owner of the place. You like a nice guy. I was like, done, deal one, can I move in? He's like the first of you know, june. I was like, okay, no, we took it over, set up my warehouse. Just boom, boom, boom, just did it trusted, trusted the process, trust of the flow of the universe, trusted my heart self, trusted my gut, All right, trusted God, trusted Well, anything you want to call it.
Speaker 1:And it was going crazy busy. We start hiring employees and the business. The business was going great and it's like a service business. And then my commercial business. I was like, well, this is gonna cooperate with it, I'm gonna hire my myself, my commercial business, to do the trucking and start delivering this and and Stuff. We were how to like truckloads every three weeks gone, gone, gone, gone. And we still had stuff left behind that couldn't fit in the truck and our motto is like, hey, first customers that you know sends us, we have their stuff and they pay for their bills gets on the truck first, first come, first serve.
Speaker 1:And it was nuts and I was just like flowing and just like trusting. And I remember like, even when I call my buddy, I'm like, hey, I needed to build with me this website pretty quick. He's a concept. I'm a blind is like okay, but like you know, like it's gonna be expensive and stuff, I'm like, don't worry about it. I Know, I faith, I trust my gut, I trust myself, I trust the universe, I trust the flow, I'm trusting the process. Okay, and Boom, he had it done.
Speaker 1:It was pretty good, was really good website, pretty good information, you know they can register and having to count with us and explains how it all works, and blah, blah, blah. And Then we've got busy and then I call my buddy up. I'm like, hey, how would you like to go full-time Because we need to make this website even bigger, better and start building automation to it so we have less work to do on the ground for us and for the employees, that there's less you know, data entry, how we could just, you know, let the Automation program take over once we do the basic data entry and it will do everything else. And then let us know when it's paid and we ship it. And he's like, okay, and it's.
Speaker 1:You know, it all worked out because he was looking for he was going to school like he was a really good web, self-taught web developer, web designer. But he's going to school to learn a lot of things and and he's like but you know, you should hire someone who already knows what they're doing. But I said, don't worry about it, buddy. And you know, when we were younger, said, hey, forever, I have a successful business and I couldn't use your skills, I will hire you. At the time he was working I don't like a store for like eight, nine dollars an hour. And I was like, well, you can work for me and double that and Well, double and more by the hour. And he's like, okay, and it helped him out, right.
Speaker 1:And I was like I'm just trusting, trust, the universe, trust in the flow. I'm not going to take control, but here's what the funny part is I started taking control and going oh, I know what I'm doing. I'm amazing. Look at me, look what I got here, look what I did. I'm not giving thanks to you know, the universe, or my heart, self, or God, or whatever you want to call it. I know I say that a lot, but it really is.
Speaker 1:Whatever you call it and works for you is the. Is it that's 100% gonna work for you, right, everybody calls a different thing. I called you know the, my higher self, or the flow of the universe, or universal energy, and just finding the right frequency of energy and stuff like that. But if you want to call it whatever you want, you know mother earth, god, your gut feelings and you just trust it and whatever it will work for you. And I'm just telling you my experiences and it's up to you to figure out what will work for you, what doesn't work for you and how you want to see and how you want to view and stuff like that. But it works for me and this is my process and I'm just telling my stories and giving advice and helping people To hopefully they could find their flow and their higher self or their energy and stuff like that. But like, yeah, the moment I start trying to take control and take credit for everything, it's kind of like you know universe or God's like, hey, nope, taking a back or how I cut the, the universal flow, or cut that energy bill according right from the universe, and then the things just start not working out. It's crazy.
Speaker 1:The opposite of what I was taught growing up is true, because I was told focus on what you want focusing your dreams. Work hard, push, push, push, push, push and focus. Never let go that focus right and just like, never stop thinking about it. You know you want to win, you're gonna win, be the winner. Blah, blah, blah, right, but no, like, yeah, focus on the sense of, if you want to make your vision board work and that works for you, great, because you visualize that. You see it every day. That's what you want.
Speaker 1:Put the house you want. You know you want a million dollar house. Well, a million dollar house is like nothing in Ontario, canada, but you need like a $10 million house for it to be anything. Nice, but anyways, I digress. But you know you want your dream home. You want your dream, this, you want your dream that. You want to dream that, yeah, make your thing right, make your vision board, make your thing that works for you so you can see it and it reminds you. But remember, just trust and set it, forget it and once it starts coming your way, just remember to give thanks. Give thanks so you know, thank you very much To the universal flow, or God, or your higher self, or you know whatever you want to call it. As I say, give thanks, be appreciative and you'll be amazed how they'll just keep on flowing and flowing.
Speaker 1:It's like I focus and I think about the way I used to think when I was younger and how hard money was to get. Now hard, oh, it's so elusive, da-da-da-da, you know. And whenever you watch movies or TV shows, all these really rich people are just assholes, right? Or crazy. You know, they're only rich because they're willing to be rich. You know, take their grandma for, or their mother for everything they're worth and and just still all their money and blah, blah, blah. Right, and that's, that's how you be a businessman, right? I was even told when I was 18, 19 years old, when I was like people like, how you do business and I explained them. I'm gonna do it honestly. And yeah, I know I could pressure and sell people and make them buy things that they don't want to. You're at a loss for a reason. I'm not gonna be able to do that. And yeah, I know I could pressure and sell people and make them buy things that they don't want to regret, right, but no, I Give them the options, like what somebody calls me for quotes on things.
Speaker 1:I Say, well, here's option number one that's most cost-effective for you and better quality. This is why I might not be the cheapest, but it's the best quality, most cost-effective, it'll last you longer. Blah, blah, blah. Or we could work out a contract where, if you don't want to own all the equipment, we will own the equipment and you know, rent it out to you for percentage and so on and so forth. Right, but it's cheaper for them to own it out, right, and then if anything breaks, they call and maintenance crew come up and fix it, stuff like that, right, kind of like a pool salesman. Right, I could be like hey, you want to call for a pool? This is how I would do it. It's yeah, you got to put up a lot of money To buy the pool from us and the install and everything, and then you got to do the maintenance yourself, right, the chlorine and all that stuff, and every few years, you know, check the lining and so on and so forth.
Speaker 1:Don't worry, I don't have a pool business, but I know a lot about pools Because when I was younger was one of my hustles I was a pool boy. Hey, you got a hustle but anyways, and or I could rent you the pool. So it's not upfront cost for you. But, yeah, over the many years you rent the pool, you would have paid for the pool two, three times, but you don't have to worry about maintenance, you don't have to worry about the end. You know if anything breaks, you know have to worry about that because you know our company, in the sense, will take care of it for you. We make more money, less hassle for you.
Speaker 1:But you know that's the way I do businesses. Hey, this is what you know I recommend. But you know, if you rather do it this way, I make more money is good for me, so, but this will make you a lot more money. And they're like oh, I think I understand I do like big commercial contracts, right? So, yeah, not just about a simple pool, but yeah, it's very interesting. But that's how I do business.
Speaker 1:And when I was younger they would tell me oh, if you're not willing to, you know I Give them the only option that makes you the most money and upsell, upsell, upsell, push, push, push, blah, blah, blah. Right, and you're gonna be honest businessman, honest businessman Don't make money. I said, you know what Honest businessman do make money just takes longer. But at least I could sleep at night and I do everything you know proper, but like, yeah, it's funny because I was taught like how evil money is, right. I'm sure a lot of you listening right now are thinking like, yeah, it's true. And Subconsciously, if you think about it, if you were never told oh, money's evil, it's love the devil, blah, blah, blah, right, or whatever Right it's it's, it's badly.
Speaker 1:No money or whatever right. You don't want to be rich because only rich people are crazy and assholes, right. So if that's the case, if you never heard Any of that, think about all the TV shows, all the movies you see about rich people. Okay, there is a percentage, probably like five or ten percent, of movies that show like, hey, you know, in the end the rich person's nice and those are mostly love movies by hallmark, right, boy meets girl and he's super crazy rich and she struggling Entry of an hour and then in the end they fall in love and they are, you know, whatever right. Okay, that's like five, ten percent. That's only the hallmark movies.
Speaker 1:But on mainstream, every time you hear about, you know, all these rich people and all this stuff, people you know who hired you to kill me. This rich guy hired me to kill me because you're gonna take his money, right, by exposing the truth about this or about that. We killed all these people by poisoning the water with our nuclear power plans, you know, and we're gonna kill you to make sure you don't talk. Blah, blah, blah. Right, that's what's showing all over mainstream Movies, tv shows, blah, blah, blah and only teaches us drama.
Speaker 1:Think about it. So then, what you see, kind of like what you eat, is what you become, right, what you're watching, what you see and all this stuff. If you're not separating reality from all this stuff, I'm telling you, believe me or not, it is programming you to be like the drama life, oh no, everybody's against me. So drama, oh, or I'm only the best one, everybody else is stupid. And all this stuff, right, because, and the you know, all this money, all these rich people are just that, subconsciously, and all these movies and TV shows, your mind's like, well, I'm a good person, I'm not an asshole, I'm not a murderer. So therefore, subconsciously, you're gonna self sabotage and not make all the money and I'm not make all this stuff. And then you're gonna be like, yeah, in your heart money's not good, so I don't want it, I'm just gonna do what I need to do live the rat race as people call or do whatever right, but no, all that stuff we were taught you got to do the opposite because I'm telling you, love, attraction and the flow of the universe Is so simple and everybody just tries to make it sound so complicated for nothing.
Speaker 1:And it's funny because I Thought the same thing, because you see that on mainstream media TV shows or you know your friends and stuff that everybody you know Watch the latest movie. What ladies do you want to grow up and stuff, right. And then every now and again you see them making fun of you know, dirty hippies, oh, dirty hippies didn't ever shower this thing. Their hair is so dirty Hippies, all dirty hippies didn't ever shower this thing, their hair. You are, all these voodoo people, all these energy people are Crazy, they're a loopy. You know they're nuts and stuff like that. Right, and I remember watching a movie and Like there's a lot of movies like this where the guy's like okay, I'm motivated and he's just like Beverly scraping by, he's, he's going to a business meeting and he puts in this cassette tape that's how old I'm, showing my haze again.
Speaker 1:He put a cassette tape. Hey, mike, what's the concert tape? Well, a concert tape is a little tape, little I don't know rectangle thing that has this string or not string but this black tape in it that you can record on. Yeah, there's an A side and a B side. Anyway, it's kind of like now everything's just digital. Maybe you read and remember CDs, but this was before the CDs. Google it, it's vintage cassette tape. This has been a learning moment from Mike, from life changers. Today's learning moment is cassette tape. But no, he puts the cassette tape in and it's like the I am.
Speaker 1:So for you who are not familiar with I am's, it's goes along the line where there's like a nice energy, frequency, music like you know, like nice happy, you know, just little whatever, and that's good and if you get the frequency right is good, positive energy in it and it absorbs it better. But anyways, and then it goes like you know, I am amazing, I Am successful, I Am the best. All right, I am rich, I Am gonna get this contract, and it goes on and on. Like I am to be anything. You could Google it I am's on YouTube and get some I am's. They're pretty good and I honestly listen to them.
Speaker 1:But what else? You guys see that I'm like this guy's so stupid he thinks that's gonna help him. You should just have gum shin, right, that's a big, I'm not that old. But you should have, you know, positive. Just be positive attitude and have self-esteem for yourself and have the positive energy knowing that you're gonna achieve all this. I'm blah, blah, blah, right. I'm just, you know, self-motivate. You don't need to listen to that. Huh, dirty hippie. Blah, blah, blah, right, but it works and we're gonna make some I am soon and and stuff like that. Because it works. I listen to some certain I am, so I like that work for me. You know, I recommend Whichever one you vibe with you listen to and just you know you don't listen to it and repeat and be like oh yeah, I'm getting motivated, right, just have it playing in the background when you're driving or when you're at work, just playing and you can hear it.
Speaker 1:I have it playing sometimes when I'm in my office and the customer comes in. He's like, what's that? I'm heard like this guy's nuts. But when it works, it works and all depends on your personal reality, but it does. It works for me. It just left me, flow goes.
Speaker 1:Yes, because you know what you deserve To be as wealthy and successful and to find love and to have all that stuff. You deserve it, we all deserve it. Okay, and we're all like it's so elusive, it's so hard. You know you're chasing the money and chasing, you know, trying to find that significant other and chasing the dream job chase, chase, chase, chase. Well, you should listen to my episode called stop chasing, because when you're chasing things it's running away. If I'm chasing you, you're running. You're not gonna be like, hey, yeah, come on. Yes, I don't know who you are, you're just chasing me. Sure, you know. Think about it. It's that simple. Stop chasing. Put that, yeah, I deserve this, get that energy flow and Just allow it to flow. Because I remember how hard and elusive it was to get money and I Worked it like a good job and then I started my company and I was making decent money. But yeah, I never had money. Why? Because I was programmed.
Speaker 1:You know, like I mentioned before other you know, some my dad and my parents program my dad. A lot would say like we're poor Son, we can't afford this son, and tell me how Frustrated he is that he has to work so hard to make a little bit of money. And a rich people don't work hard and they're just giving everything blah, blah, blah, right. And he says like we were only here to make rich people stay rich and poor to stay poor. Blah, blah, blah, right.
Speaker 1:But no, and I've been told my dad this a few years ago, like dad, you know, I know you don't understand what I'm talking about, but you subconsciously programmed all of your kids and yourself to stay poor, to live, pay tech, to pay tech, to be like it's a struggle, supposed to be a struggle, but it's not. Don't accept it, I don't. He's like okay, and I Know my dad's getting old, he's 73 now and I was telling him all this stuff. He's just like Okay, I'm sorry you feel that way, son, but it wasn't. You know, whatever, it doesn't work that way, but it does, because the moment I decided to stop being poor and stop working, making it feel so elusive, you know, by listening to that book called breaking the habit of being yourself by Dr Doe, dr Joe Dispenza, and I literally like, yes, I'm gonna change the way I was thought, taught, way I was programmed subconsciously right and consciously. You don't realize it, but everything, everything out there is, you know, the information, and we take it and we program ourselves to believe what we want, to understand the way we want to understand it. And you can understand something wrong, Right, and believe something different, but it is what it is, but there's no. I guess you know we're hungin right in the sense of for what you believe. You can believe anything you want and if it's right to you, it's right for you and If it's truth for you, it's truth for you. Don't let anybody take that. You know many people tell me I don't know friends to. But you know people I look up to, people that are friends and stuff. I you know. Let my crazy out next. Talk to them like I'm talking to you and I'm just answering myself, I'm not going too nuts, and they're like okay, you got crazy. Mike again, right, I have like a buddy of mine who was there when I did the experiment. Okay, the experiment, the real experiment. That's the episode.
Speaker 1:I believe it was in the season one, episode 10 or something, but Called the real experiment, because I got sidetracked on when I were talking about the experiment and he was there and he saw me walking into casinos and just using the law of attraction and Just winning, making money like I was making money. I 1000% convinced. There's like I'm gonna leave here with more money than I came in with and I would leave with, like you know, I know, from a thousand to 35 to $5,500 Canadian. It's like five bucks American, I mean. To get $1 US right now I need to spend $1.35 Canadian. So 35% difference. I don't anyways, but he was there for that and all he could sit down tell himself is you're just lucky, he goes, you just, you're lucky, you're lucky. And that's how the joke came out. You know, a horse kicked me in the ass and his shoe got stuck. So I got a horseshoe on my butt right, but no, I don't, and it's not that luck. And he saw me change from. You know, I mentioned a lot like I was.
Speaker 1:I always had my own business, but then I wouldn't like going all in with my business. I always had a real job on the side. I didn't consider my business a real job. Right, even my buddy that I hire a Full-time web developer and he could work as hard as he wants, as much as he wants or as less as he wants. He works at home, does his own thing. And I said, when you put in the hours, you do charge me, and if you don't work, then you don't get paid. Like, don't charge me, right, like it's the trust factor and yeah, and he can make as much or as little as he wants, it's up to him. So when he works, he gets paid, right, full-time, but he still doesn't consider it a real job, quote-on-quote. A real job, right, a real job's working for somebody I don't know and Then I do whatever projects he tells me to do and I meet the deadlines and I get paid and blah, blah, blah. Right, I'm like this is a real job. Yeah, I'm hiring as a contractor, but it's still a real job. If you want to work 50 hours a week, 40 hours a week, go ahead, you'll make the money. And he's been working for me since 20 I say full-time, since 2020. No, it's 20, the end of 2023, and you know he's.
Speaker 1:Every now and again It'll be like why need a real job? Hey, so here, reality, but but it is a real job. It'd be more real if you lived closer and lived in Canada. Then you can come into the office and then you can feel like it's a real job. Then I'm gonna come work in the office every day. You know what I mean, but anyways, I digress, but it's all about your perception.
Speaker 1:So Stop chasing Right, stop trying to control everything and just let it happen the way it needs to happen. Naturally, I Know it sounds crazy, I thought it was too, and now I wish I listened when I was 1819 to all this stuff and I would probably be 10 times more successful than I am now. But you have to, and this is what I'm working on. But you have to be like yes, thank you, and be happy and stop going. I need more, I need more, I need more blah. Right, I'm not happy. I'll only be happy when I have this. I'll only be happy. You know how many times I hear that From people. Hey, mike, I'll only be happy when my business is actually making me consistent money.
Speaker 1:I said the same thing, right, I got mentioned early in this episode. I did contracts and I made good money, but I would try to have a real job and I was like I need to not work a real job and I need to find a way to make real money and I was focused on it and trying to be like that. Right, but just let it happen, let it flow. Stop trying to control, stop saying you know I need this and the. Now that I have it, I'm like I need more. I need more.
Speaker 1:Like I would never thought in 2019 to now, 2023, in November 2023, that I would be in my own Recording podcast studio. I Never thought that. I got these nice, you know, sound dampening panels. I got sound dampening Things on my windows. I got nice LED lights in here. You know, I'm gonna buying some Apple products, because in order to get my podcast on Apple and podcast and iTunes, it's a lot easier if you have Apple products and then I can register an Apple account, so on. So I bought Apple products. I got computer and a tablet and stuff up iPad.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't tell me that, you know, 20 2019, 20 2018, and I'll be like, oh, I'm successful, but I'm still here, like I need more. You know I want a million listeners, I want this, I want this. But if you're not grateful and happy for what you have, then why, why would anybody want to give you more? Why would the universe or God or Mother Earth or whatever is gonna give you more If you're gonna be like that? And I'm telling this to me too, it's not just I'm not, I'm not bitching at yeah, but I'm telling me to, because it's true, because if I'm like, hey, universe, or higher self, or hey, you know God, give me this, and he gives it to you, or you receive it from the universe, or whatever, you retract it through the law of attraction, and Then you like thank you, don't you? First you don't say thank you, then you like I want more, give me more right. And then it'd be like hey. So imagine I come to you and I'm like hey, buddy, can you give me this? And you like, yeah, sure, you know. I'm like well, thank you for the free burger. Can I have the drink now? Can I have this? Can I have this? Give me your car, can I have your house? Can I have this? Sorry, I got a cough and I forgot to bring water.
Speaker 1:I'm recording an hour-long podcast right through and I forgot to bring water. I tell you and I'm just gonna blah, blah, blah. Anyways, I'm sorry, but are you gonna be like okay, okay, every time I say give me, give me, give me, and I never say thank you and I never feel you don't feel appreciated. Come on, of course you're not. You might at first, and then you're gonna either cut me off or Be like okay, mike, you know what, now you got to start paying for stuff because you're just taking advantage of me.
Speaker 1:Then you're probably thinking but, mike, the universe is not a living being, doesn't have feelings. No, no, no, no, but it's the energy. It's the energy you're putting out. There is what matters. It's the energy. If you're putting energy of like I deserve this, you know, but you do deserve it, if you know what I mean, but like selfishly and just give me, give me, give me, you know, all that stuff, then that's the energy putting out and that's what you're gonna attract, like, try it, test it, play with it, because it works.
Speaker 1:All these things I'm saying like it's just all a frame of mind and how you put the energy out. You might not realize it, but there's energy everywhere and, like I know now more, more, I guess becoming more and more mainstream, I guess, where people are like, oh, I feel the negative energy in the room from you, hmm, you know. However, you walked in the room and some of us just having an intense conversation, but they all, just, like you know, they're not yelling anymore, and then he's walking like whoa, cut the tension with the knife. It's going on here, right, that's the flow of the energy. So if you're putting flow of positive energy and happy, go lucky energy and Loving, carrying energy and the energy of flow of money out there and An abundance and all this stuff instead of like negative energy, then all this good stuff will come your way.
Speaker 1:But if you're out there going like, oh you know, I have to work so hard and I don't get what I deserve, and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, I'm gonna feel so self-entitled and self-absorbed and oh, oh, oh, oh. Well, you should take a look at yourself because you're probably not a good employee oh, sorry, a good person or good employee. You might be a nice person in general, but if you're like always like, oh, I'm amazing, I'm the best Without me, your company sucks, blah, blah, blah, blah. No, it doesn't work that way. That's bad energy, bad juju.
Speaker 1:If you and everybody that's listening, and even me I'm working towards it can just live in the moment, live in the now. You don't need to If you don't realize in this world, or the Matrix that we're in, or the video game or whatever, you want to see it as right. Whatever you see, we're in the Truman Show, maybe, but whatever you think we're in like we live in the past, we're focused on the past. You hear a lot of people talking about the past or about the future. One day, one day, or hey, in my five-year plan in the future, this is what's going to happen. Blah, blah, blah. That's good to have a little plan and put it out there, but, don't you know, set it, forget it and let it happen, but roll with the punches. Things are not going to happen like exactly the way you want it to, but you will get all of the abundance you want if you have the right energy, and I'm working on that myself.
Speaker 1:I could know the difference when I have the good energy flow and I'm just like living in the moment and just trusting the universe and just flowing, versus me trying to take control and take over. It's funny because when I go on vacation and I don't even care about my company and what's going on, like I just trust the employees or everybody, you know, no one's calling me, no one's bugging me. I might check in once in a while, you know, and everything's working great and everything's working smoothly, and I'm not focused on that. And then everything's just wow. Just come back and I'm like, wow, you guys must have been really busy. Like, wow, look at all the contracts for fulfilling, look at all these processing we're doing and all this stuff and all these packages we're shipping on and all these little things, right. But when I'm sitting here like focused on it all day, I want to make more money. I can get more packages through that door. We got to do this, I got, I got, I got, I got, I got.
Speaker 1:No, and then things just seem to slow down. It's like a bad energy, right. And then you know it just flows. Energy flows through this whole world. There's even been scientific evidence and a lot of scientists and stuff prove that like you can have the positive energy in this room or negative energy and even though you leave, there's still energy flowing in this room for a while. It's not like it just leaves with you. So energy is a real thing, but we need to learn to be loving. Caring, and loving ourselves is important.
Speaker 1:I know that I'm working on all this stuff and I'm talking about it because I'm realizing what I need to do and then, as I do it, I know it works. So that's, you know what works for me. But I know when I live in the moments and I stop trying to force the universe to give me things or force you know things to happen and just, you know, have faith or trust, or just and like, yeah, I trust my higher self or the universal guidance and everything is going to give me what I need, and just be happy and love everybody and love yourself. How much joy you'd have in your life, less stress, like it's amazing to me that right now, the way I understand things and the way I'm thinking and blah, blah, blah, I'm like, yeah, I see opportunity for anybody to make money. It's so easy, right, I'm like you can go rent a little warehouse or you can you have a minivan. Great, one of you guys have a little power washer, you know some cleaning supplies on and you can go to people's houses or to a company's and wash their fleet of cars for them.
Speaker 1:You know, I would go to rental companies like you know, enterprise rent a car or Alamo or all these rent a car places and be like, hey, instead of you guys needing a team to come in here and clean your cars and you need a full-time employee to do that, we would have somebody that comes in every day and will vacuum and auto detail your cars. They'll be cheaper for you, and then you make money and then you got your teams going around and then just knocking out the all these jobs. It's that easy. But we're always told like, oh, it's going to take a long time and your first five to 10 years of business you know most 90 per 98% of businesses go bankrupt. Blah, blah, blah. Well, if you believe that, then yeah, you're going to go bankrupt.
Speaker 1:I don't believe any of the stereotypes or any of that BS that I was told. I refuse to accept that in my reality Even my accountants I'm like, hey, I'm starting this new venture, I'm going to dump all this money into it and it's going to turn me a profit and pay me back within the first year or so. And they're like good luck, buddy, everybody wishes that happens. And then turn off the like, hey, how did you do that? Because I don't let the stereotypes or I don't let the well, this is how it works. No, I don't care how it works, this is how my reality works. Is I'm only going to do amazing things and things that work for me. And this is what I want and this is the energy I'm putting out there positive, happy, go lucky, loving, caring, energy and sort of like this is what I want, this is what I'm doing. That's all there is to it.
Speaker 1:And it's funny because even when I sold my house in 2018 or something 2019, 2019, I was talking to the real estate agent. I'm like this is how much I want to sell the house for and this is what I'm going to list that at. But it's going to go over asking it to be closer to this price. This is what I want. He's like he goes. You could have dreams and listed for anything you want, but it's not like you're going to get it Right. And we had an open house on like the Saturday. We weren't taking offers until on the Monday and we had all these offers already up by Monday and it sold for around what I was saying I wanted. And he's just like I don't know how you did it, but in hindsight, if I held on to it until 2020, 2021, there would have been worse, a lot more, in Ontario, canada. But if I could see, if I can see, the future, then well, I got to work on that so I could predict the future.
Speaker 1:But, like the moments, I just go with the flow. It's people like you're just lucky, mike. No, it's not luck. I'm not lucky 100% of the time. Okay, maybe like 95% of the time, because sometimes I self sabotage myself. And if you're like what's that, mikey? Well, you should listen to my podcast called self sabotage. Maybe I'll redo new ones and I'll do similar topics about it and push. But self sabotaging is like you know.
Speaker 1:Back to what I was saying how, like you know, I grew up in a kind of program to you know by everybody, to be like you're poor, you're going to be poor, and that's how poor? Because rich people get rich, because rich people stay together and they give each other money, blah, blah, blah, blah, right, and poor, get all of us rich, right. That's what they want you to believe, because that's what they want. They don't want you to be rich too. They don't want everybody to be rich, they don't want everybody to have. No, then they got no leverage over you, right? But I believe that there's more than enough money and universal energy in this world that everybody can be rich. It's just we tell ourselves we can't because we believe what we're told.
Speaker 1:But I choose not to. You should choose not to. You should choose your own reality. I don't know what you're thinking, but, mike, I'm not going to live in a hole. This is a reality. The reality is states that you know, I'm going to be poor my whole life unless I come up with this one amazing idea. And I work so hard and I push, push, push. I know a lot of people that work so hard and push, push, push, but they always have that little doubt in them and then it just doesn't work.
Speaker 1:My dad was one of those guys. I've seen Nick growing up. He was like no matter how hard I work, I'm not going to be rich. I'll never have more than I need. I'm always, you know, and that's how he lived and he still is that way. And I'm like, okay, and he had businesses, he has amazing businesses and like he was doing vending machines back in the late 80s, early 90s, when they were like a huge thing, right, and he was doing really well. But once again, you know, he's like I'll never be rich. I'm just you know.
Speaker 1:And he limits himself, self sabotages and then, by putting that in the universe, that's what you're going to attract, because what you put out is what you're going to get back in return. So if you're a pompous asshole and you're like, why is everybody and he's looking around going why is everybody being mean to me? Why is everybody an asshole to me? Why, Well, you should take a look at yourself, I'm sorry to say, but you should look in the mirror, bud, because if everybody hates you and mean to you, then I think you might be the problem. Yeah, not everybody likes me, right? Because some people don't like themselves, so they hate the world. They say they feel like the world is against them and everybody's against them and all this stuff in their head. And that's their reality. And that's what you're going to get. You're going to self sabotage yourself, get rid of all your friends, you're going to get rid of family and you're going to piss everybody off and you're going to screw yourself over, because that's what you're attracting, because that's what you're putting out. But you blame everybody else in the world. It's not my problem, it's all these assholes. No, look in the fucking mirror. I'm sorry, but it's true.
Speaker 1:Just bugs me, because I treat people with respect and dignity. I treat everybody with kindness, with love. I Don't judge people. I bump into assholes and I'm like that person is an asshole, but I don't think you know everybody that's like that person you know. So oh, this successful business guy you know is an asshole. So all business people are assholes. No, I talked to people and I give everybody the chance. I Treat everybody one-on-one. I don't say like, well, if I talked to this person that works at this Wendy's and the that person was an asshole and then their boss was an asshole to me, than everybody that works there are assholes. Hey, you all you're gonna burn in hell, right? No, they're not. They're not all assholes.
Speaker 1:Maybe those two people having a bad day you might have had a bad day. I know I had bad days sometimes and I'm just like Somebody pisses me off and I'm like, I'm like, oh, I'm sorry. Right, I'm doing my best, we're all doing our best. But if you're putting out negative and you know all these vibes of negativity and you know I'm poor and every all mopey-mopey, well, that's what you're gonna get. I'm sorry. Nothing's gonna help you if you're not gonna change your, the way you're processing.
Speaker 1:You literally have to break the habit of being yourself and pre-program yourself the way you want to be and not allow the world or the people around you or whatever to push you down and say this is the way it is, because I got a lot of people that I have respect for and they're like yeah, you're a little loopy with this law of attraction. Bullshit, mike, I'm sorry. And I'm like hey, you have your opinion, but the proof is in the pudding for me. Like it works for me might not work for you, will not work for you, what the attitude you have against it. And I had the same thing where I was like this is all crazy, this is nuts, but when it works, it works. The proof is right there. Like I cannot say anything more. Like, yeah, so If all you see is people that come around you, that are loving, happy, yeah, there's a percentage of People that are gonna try to ruin your mood because you're happy and they're not.
Speaker 1:Just kill them with kindness. I'll piss them off you for, but don't let them ruin your bad end of your, your good energy. Do you ever notice how, like, sometimes you're like flowing and have an amazing time and amazing energy. Then something comes your way and you're like oh, I expect that, because whatever positive happens, something bad has to happen. You know it doesn't have to happen that way. Reprogram yourself, program yourself To be like, hey, I'm loving and caring, I'm happy, go lucky.
Speaker 1:I did not associate myself with people with negative, bad energy. I just kind of like this is you know, I'm an open book, I Will tell you how I think, blah, blah, blah. But and I just you know know how to you know people say I know how to read people, I just feel their energy and I know who they are, the type of person they are. So, yeah, maybe I'm too much of a open book and too nice, but you know what? It's what I want. I treat people the way I want to be treated. So if you treat people like everybody's an asshole, well then everybody's gonna treat you like an asshole. So if that's your case and that's the cycle you're in, be like huh, I guess I should change something. I'm gonna treat people with respect. You know how many times like I had a Technician come over for the internet and all that.
Speaker 1:We changed service providers and I was just like, hey, you know being nice to the guy, like sorry, I'm late. You know I was like five minutes late and he's like oh, no problem. And I was like can I help you with anything? Do you need water? I got bottle water, water, if you need water, do you want you know whatever? Right, just be nice. Because I would like it if people were nice and treat me like that. So I treat people with respect. We all have our jobs. No one's beneath me, no one's above me. We're all equal in the playing field and we should treat each other like that. And I'll just like, yeah, just be nice to the guy. And he's like, okay, yeah, that's cool. And then he was just really surprised and being nice to me and like oh, yeah, oh, thanks for helping me, you know. And I'm like, hey, and he's like you know.
Speaker 1:I was talking to guy like he's like this, my last call, and I'm like you paid by the hour. He's like no more paid by you know the contract, by the, you know by the ticket number. So I came in we're installing new internet for you. Doesn't matter how long it takes me, I get paid the same amount. So I was like, oh, let me help you. Let's, you know, speed the process so you can go home. You got a two-hour drive home after all this, right. And he's like yeah, you know, and it just made him feel good. I just made him feel good. I'm not doing it, to be like, hey, yeah, I did, I made him feel good, pat me on the back everybody.
Speaker 1:No, because I want people to treat me with the same way and to make me feel good and we all just feel good and just have a warm, fuzzy feeling. The world to be such a wonderful place, right, but no, yeah, there's a lot of douchebags in this world, but it's Just leave them alone. They're gonna be alone. They're gonna be alone. They're gonna have nobody, no friends or nothing. It's sad because I just have love for them, but I don't want their negative energy around me. So I'm walking away.
Speaker 1:But just know how amazing you are and how you do deserve To have everything you want and that you do deserve to have wealth, love, feel loved to be loved. Right, have that dream job. You deserve to have what you want, but be happy with it, live in the moment, appreciate it when it comes your way and yeah, you know it's not like it. Okay, I'm just gonna sit here and I'm gonna have my dream job tomorrow. What happened? I think I'm a dreamer.
Speaker 1:No, like you know, go out, put your applications out or, you know, do your thing. But you'll know you'll feel the energy like this, is it right? It's kind of like when you're looking for a house. You don't just buy the first house comes your way or rent the first apartment you can get. If you want that dream apartment, let me oops, I just hit some. If you want that dream apartment, you know, go looking around and all that. Though, when the right one comes, you walk in and be like this is the one, and then You'll be able to, even if you think, oh, I can't afford, I can't do that. No, no, don't get that out of your head. If it's meant to be, you'll get it, trust me, allow the flow of, of the positive, universal energy through. Things are not as hard as they seem to get, but once you achieve those things, you're like wow. And you look back like, wow, that was a lot easier than I thought. Wow, that's amazing. Oh, wow, this works.
Speaker 1:Mike, Move my chair in the garbage, but yeah, that's why I record these podcasts. Let's straight up here as can be right. I'm coughing, I'm hitting the table, making noise, whatever it is what it is, and I just record these in one shot, straight, whatever if it's 50s, eight minutes, 59. I'm an hour. I just record her straight and I don't pause and I'll edit. You know I do use Software to level the volume to make sure it's, you know, because when I lean back or lean forward, you don't want to like turn up your volume. Turn, oh no, it's not right. So I level it all out, do all that fun stuff, but Just this peer straight up.
Speaker 1:This is what needs to be said. It's not. I didn't know where it's gonna go. I don't have a script in front of me. Probably you knew to the podcast, welcome. I don't have a script, I don't keep nothing with me. I just think of a topic and I start talking and I just go with the flow of the universe and Say what needs to be said and what needs to be heard by people.
Speaker 1:So just know that I do love everybody and I do love you and I want you to be successful and I want you to be happy and feel free to write me and say hey, you know I tried this, I tried that and it worked. And or I find this part hard and I can you talk a little bit more about this or whatever. I'm more than happy to do that. You can write me a life-changers mic at gmailcom. That's life-changers mic. All one word at gmailcom Com and once again, I appreciate you, I love you, you are important, everybody's amazing, you're amazing and and just remember, be happy, live in the moment and you deserve it. And once again, this is Mike with life-changers. Thank you very much.
