Okay. I don't know if this will be apparent on the recording, but we had a break there because we, our batteries died. And this is life. Not our batteries, although in my case there is some question about that. But the the recorder's batteries died. All right. So we were talking about the power of vision. Yeah. And what the actions involved with your vision process are.

Pjae

It's, absolutely, and it's j- it's about claiming it. Setting a vision is setting your intention. It's saying yes to your future, and so you wanna be sure of what you're saying yes to, and so you, you envision it. You dream it like we did when we were kids. We... I remember a a young girl that was a friend of mine when I was a y- five years old or whatever, and we'd be talking about making I would talk about making mud pies. She was Hispanic, and so she was making mud tacos, and it was just so amazing to me. In my mind I'm thinking mud and you just, you put, you put, you make a little pie thing, and she's"No, you make tacos," and that's what she saw. It was a taco that she makes from certainly from her family and what have you. So what people see, what is what you're bringing into fruition, into your life. It's very important that you look to see what it is you want. So we talked about just sitting down and writing it down. You see yourself three years from now, three or more years from now, because it's hard for your mind to argue with you if you go three years out. If you say,"Next year I'm gonna do this," your mind doesn't necessarily... It argues. But three years from now or more, it doesn't. So you can sit down... Yeah, I know. You chest it out. It's"Really? Yeah, that's true." You can just test it out, and you can begin to think about what do you want your life to look like in the four domains that we talked about of your health, and time, and money freedom, your vocation, and your relationships. So those are the four things. What do you want all that to look like? Where do you wanna be? What do you wanna be doing? Who do you wanna be with? How do you wanna feel? And so you actually write out how you're feeling. I could feel their hands in my hand as we walked along the beach, and I felt the water lapping. So all the things, because what you're doing is you're not... People think that you write out of your vision- And you're trying to get to where the vision is, but actually you're drawing the vision to you. So you're trying to become the energy of that vision, and that is why it's important that you write it out, that you visualize it, you see it, and you feel it in all of the five senses. And so you begin to draw it out. And what happens is you're signaling to the universe what you wanna do, and then you recognize when things are coming your way that are aligned with it. So you could say something like"I wanna, I really wanna walk on the beach," or whatever, and you might have someone come up to you and say,"Hey, I got a beach house in Galveston. You wanna go?" That's the beginning of seeing that. And so y- it j- you just start drawing your life to you. That's what happens.

Jim

And so it sounds like it's good to be pretty specific about what you write down as your vision.

Pjae

You... it's like you don't wanna be specific, though, you said?

Jim

No, I said it sounds like you should be, or- You should be

Pjae

specific, yes. You should be as specific as possible. And keep yourself open to to continuing to upgrade it. So you say,"I w- I wanna walk..." Just this a- example that we had,"I wanna walk on the beach," and now you're in Galveston, and the next time you go to look at your what you wrote, you could say,"You know what? Didn't really care for Galveston that much, and that's okay. I wanted to be on the s- Pacific Coast," or,"I wanted to be where there's a warm water," or whatever. And so you keep enhancing it. You keep enhancing it and keep reading it I keep showing it to you. Yeah. That's what you, that's how you, that's how it works

Jim

And I would think it's important that you not be afraid to say large things. It, it- No

Pjae

exactly. And so I'm glad you said that because one of the things that happens for us as human beings is that we wanna think about things we think is possible. But the universe has is creat- You are creative. W- when your words are creative, your mind is creative, we're creative. So we don't have to know how. That's the thing. People go,"I don't know how I'm gonna do that. I don't How am I gonna get to be a on stage? How am I gonna..." Not your business. I say that a lot. It's not your business. Your business is to claim what you want, and you, when you do that, when you set a vision, when you set an intention, you're putting the universe on notice. Bring this to me. And you, then when you put it on notice, you recognize when it's coming,'cause it doesn't come necessarily the way that your vision looks at the beginning, because it has steps. You say, I wanna bri- drive first I wanna fly first class to, stay two weeks in a Paris hotel." All right. With money that you don't when you're still living with your parents. So you That's not gonna actually necessarily happen at the beginning, but you start to have advictures, adventures."Oh I flew out to LA. I flew out to LA in the, in the economy thing. But next time I go, I'm gonna go first class," because that's a part of your dream. So you begin to see how it's going to unfold. It doesn't just come like a magic wand. It unfolds. It evolves. But it won't do that if you don't have a vision for where you wanna go. That's how it

Jim

works. It seems like it, it would be relatively easy to take those smaller steps along the way as evidence that it wasn't working.

Pjae

Exact- I'm sorry, you said y- you would take those steps?

Jim

You could. Yes. I- if those do your example there, okay, you go on that economy flight- Yes it would be easy to think my vision's not working because I'm not flying first class- I'm not going to Paris,

Pjae

exactly. You could think that. But instead, what we think about is, when was the i, because you have claimed the Paris trip, you gotta get on a plane at some point. If you've never taken a flight- Then taking a flight to LA, or even taking a flight up to, if you're living in in Texas, then yeah, take a flight to LA. Just getting on a plane is the beginning steps to prove to yourself, to prove to your to the, your intellect that this can happen. And it can happen because you start claiming all the little things on the way. So I'm gonna go first class. I don't have first class money, but I wanna get on the plane, see what that's like. And the energy when you get on the plane and you have to go past the people in first class to the people in the economy section, the energy changes in you. And you go I'm not... Next time I get on a plane, this is what I'm gonna do." So it just keeps building and growing and building and growing, but it won't if you haven't claimed something first. It just won't.

Jim

Okay. Yeah. So get busy and stake your claim a- Stake your claim and your vision, and- Stake your claim we will- And it

Pjae

doesn't matter if it seems impossible. It's not impossible. It's everything is possible in the mind of God and in your mind, but you just have to set an intention for it and say yes when it comes. Even if it doesn't look exactly like what you thought at the beginning, just say yes to what does come. It keeps growing.

Jim

Okay. Yeah. We'll stop there for today. Thank you for being with us, and we'll see you next time.
