Our thoughts directly influence what happens in our lives, yet research shows 95% of our daily thoughts are the same ones we had yesterday.
• The average person has 6,000-10,000 thoughts per day, approximately 6.5 thoughts per minute
• Our outer conditions reflect our inner beliefs - where you are today is where your thoughts have brought you
• To create change, we must interrupt our mental patterns and move from unconscious to conscious thinking
• Three ways to interrupt patterns: reduce repetitive thinking from 95% to 85%, direct your thoughts upon waking, understand why you feel what you feel
• Shift from Newtonian cause-and-effect thinking to quantum causal thinking where you create your reality
• The universe is neutral - waiting for you to cause it to respond through your conscious intentions
• Knowing these principles isn't enough - you must actively practice directing your thoughts daily
Take the time this week to interrupt your thought patterns and consciously direct your thinking toward what you truly want to manifest in your life. Life goes on until you interrupt it with definite, absolute thinking that takes you where you want to go.

Dr James Mellon (00:01):
Oobla dee, oobla da.
Life goes on and on and on andon and on right, and it just
keeps going.
Your life just keeps going.
So I have a question for youtoday, and it's this Do you
(00:23):
believe that what you thinkdirectly influences what happens
in your life?
Yes, okay, good, show of hands.
Now, before you raise your hand, diane, before you raise your
hand, I want you to really thinkabout this, because the first
line says do you believe,absolutely believe, believe that
(00:47):
what you think directly, notindirectly, directly influences
what happens in your life?
Now, show of hands.
Who believes that?
Okay, show of hands.
Who doesn't believe that?
Okay, there's a couple of youthat don't believe that.
Okay, good, okay, good, notgood.
But I'll get to it.
(01:09):
So I have some information foryou.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in one minute?
10, 20, 100, 100.
You may have some OCD going on.
No, it is 6.5 transmittedthoughts per minute.
(01:36):
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have a day?
A jillion?
Who said that?
You said that.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in a day, eric?
23,204.
Billion, who said that?
You said that.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in a day, eric?
It's like the jelly beans atthe truck.
Karen, how many do you thinkyou have?
A lot More than what yourhusband thinks you should have.
(02:03):
We'll address that too.
So here's the real answer.
People think that it's like20,000.
I even heard a speaker at theMindvalley Summit who said
20,000 to 40,000 thoughts a day.
It's not correct.
After all, the scientific proofon how many thoughts does the
(02:25):
average person have a day?
It's only 6,000 to 10,000thoughts a day.
We have 6 to 10,000 thoughts aday, 6.5 thoughts a minute.
Now here's the next question Ihave for you how many of those
thoughts that you are havingtoday do you think are the same
(02:47):
thoughts that you had yesterday?
How many?
What percentage do you think?
50%, 60%, 70%?
I feel like I'm like, I'll gofor it and it's sold to.
So we got to 70%, right?
75.
95.
(03:09):
You think it's 95, liz?
Okay, liz is right, it's 95%.
Did you just Google that?
Okay, good.
So research suggests that 95%of what we are thinking right
now we thought yesterday and theday before that and the day
(03:33):
before that.
Life goes on and we keepthinking the same thoughts over
and over and over, even whenwe're not that happy with our
lives, even when we are not,even when we want to create new
(03:54):
things in our lives.
What are we doing?
We're still.
Do you believe that what youthink directly influences what
happens in your life?
Well, if you're going to think95% of the same thoughts every
single day, how do you expectthe changes you want in your
life to take place?
How do you think they're goingto materialize?
(04:15):
How are your dreams going to bemanifest?
How are your desires going tobe listened to and brought
forward when we keep thinkingthe same thoughts over and over
and over?
The Buddha says what we thinkwe become.
So who you are today sittinghere, is nothing more than a
(04:36):
full amalgamation of what you'vebeen thinking your whole life.
Does that work for you?
It's a positive thing.
It can be a negative thing, itcould make you feel sad and
depressed, but it could alsomake and it could hurt, but it
could also feel really great torealize you have that kind of
(04:58):
power, exactly what Caressa wastalking about.
You have the power of QueenElizabeth.
Ernest Holmes said change yourthinking, thinking, change your
life.
You ever hear that before.
Change your thinking, changeyour life.
(05:27):
So it's a very great what.
Remember that if you changeyour thinking, you'll change
your life, and then you don't doit.
If you are getting older andlosing your mind is because you
bought into that premise,because people's minds should
get stronger and more creativeas they get older, not less.
(05:51):
That's the truth of what themind is before you dirty it with
all your thinking.
So change your thinking, changeyour life.
Ernest Holmes, that's true.
We've heard it forever.
Most of you just agreed.
Only two of you said no to theidea that you believe that what
you're thinking is changing yourlife.
(06:12):
Ernest Holmes has said it aswell.
James Allen, who is the fatherof positive thinking, the father
of new thought, also the fatherof all that we do in today's
society in terms of searchingthrough ourselves to see what's
going on.
He says you are today whereyour thoughts have brought you.
(06:32):
You will be tomorrow where yourthoughts take you.
So right now you're sittinghere and your thoughts brought
you to this chair today, forwhatever reason, to see the
icons of your family sing.
Whatever reason you are here,whatever that is.
It all came from all this pastthinking, but I love that.
(06:56):
You will be tomorrow where yourthoughts take you.
So the thing is, if 95% of mythinking is the same as it was
yesterday.
Then where am I taking myself?
Pretty much the same place.
And who knows, maybe that other5%?
I've actually darkened thatpath.
(07:17):
I never said that the other 5%was the dynamic divine goodness
that I think.
No, who knows what that other5% is.
It could just be I have 95%that I think all the time and
then I have my 5% that I reactto when I'm in my world.
I react to things who knowswhat it is.
So if my thoughts fromyesterday brought me here today
(07:41):
and if my thoughts today bringme forward, then what just give
me?
Yell it out what seems like thelogical answer Change your
thinking Right Now.
How can you change yourthinking?
It's interesting this man wrotea book called as you Thinketh.
So when I met Kevin, I was Iforget how old I was 33, maybe
(08:04):
33.
I met Kevin playing the role ofCandide in Candide, the musical
in St Louis at St Louis Rep,and the musical director and
conductor one day, and I was aforce to be reckoned with.
If you can only imagine, I hadan enormous ego.
(08:27):
I mean, yes, but the ego I havetoday is the ego called
entertaining God.
Only that was edging God out.
So I did and I was difficult, Iwas very difficult, but this
(08:48):
composer and this conductor andmusical director really believed
in me, really really believedin me, and he handed me this
book, as a man Thinketh, and Ilooked at it and basically just
thought you're crazy, I'm notreading a book and I never
looked at it.
I just never looked at it.
But when I look back and when Ilike think about that moment, I
think Somewhere in me Somethingwas asking me pay attention.
(09:13):
A because you're screwing upyour career, because nobody
wants to work with an egomaniacunless they have to.
So, as a man thinketh, so he is.
If you want a differenttomorrow, you have to think
different thoughts.
If you want different thoughts,you have to think and develop
(09:38):
different beliefs.
James Allen also said this theouter conditions of a person's
life will always be found toreflect their inner beliefs.
So take a look at yourconditions, just look at your
life, who you are today.
Are you all following me?
Great, so really, really lookto see what your life is like
(09:58):
right now.
And for many of you, I want youall to ask yourself where do I
want to go?
Because the disparity betweenyour life today and where you
want to go is all about yourbeliefs.
Where you want to go is onlyavailable to you if the belief
(10:21):
is equal to what that is, and weteach that.
So it goes all right back tothinking so if the outer
conditions of a person's life isfound in their beliefs, this
whole month has been aboutunderstanding why you are where
you are with, who you're withand what you're doing.
That's what this whole monthhas been about understanding
(10:41):
that, about yourself, and notbeing afraid of what comes up.
If what comes up is oh my god,anybody have that come up this
month where suddenly it was like, how did I get here?
Well, you can say, how did Iget here to the cows got home,
but the answer is you broughtyourself here, your thoughts
brought yourself here, yourbeliefs brought yourself here
(11:05):
because we live in a dynamicuniverse that operates from your
beliefs.
So you have to know what yourbeliefs are.
You have to understand who youare and why you are the way you
are.
So everything I've said so farthis morning are we all in
agreement with this?
Yes, anybody disagrees with allof this, because it's very
(11:29):
possible, whether you know it ornot that you're in agreement
with me, because I'm presentingit in a way that makes it seem
like there's no other way, andthe truth is there's no other
way for you to get there, butthere are many other ways.
You can keep believing thatsomehow you are a victim to the
universe.
If that's your AEP, you cankeep believing that.
(11:53):
It doesn't matter what youthink, there are things out
there that will make my lifewhat it is.
You can keep believing anything.
You can believe anything and infact, right now, today, you are
believing lots of things.
But if you don't know what theyare, they're just on auto run,
autopilot.
They're running your life pilot.
(12:14):
They're running your life.
So the title of my talk todayis Pattern Interrupted.
Can you imagine what this isabout?
So today is all aboutinterrupting the way you think,
consciously and subconsciously.
So all of your thinking thatyou're doing creates patterns.
(12:38):
You all have patterns ofthinking and as I spent the week
dealing with this talk andthinking about this talk, I
started to ask myself about thepatterns I have, and it was
shocking to me that there weresome patterns that I hadn't
noticed in my life.
One was a reaction I have to acertain thing when it happens.
(12:59):
And I've been asking us all allmonth to do these three things
consciously and subconsciously.
So let's start with the firstone.
Oh well, change your patterns,change your life.
I forgot that one.
That's my new thing.
Change your thinking, changeyour life.
Fine, change your patterns,change your life.
But in order to change yourpatterns, you have to get in
(13:19):
there and change your beliefs.
So, nope, going the wrong way,pattern interrupted.
So here's the first one.
Begin by moving your percentageto 85 percent.
Do you think you could do that?
This guy cannot do it.
This guy's just like.
(13:45):
That seems like a lot.
10%.
Could you move your thinking?
I got to tell you.
I believe this week I havemoved probably 50% of my
thinking to the other side, toconscious thoughts, because I've
paid so much attention thisweek to what I'm thinking and to
why I'm thinking it, and I willnot let those thoughts go rogue
(14:06):
and just let them flip bywithout going.
Yo come here, was that to you?
Yo, there you go.
Yeah.
So this month I've asked you topay attention to your reactions
and understanding.
If you don't know why you'rereacting the way you're reacting
, you don't understand yourself,you don't know where it's
(14:28):
coming from.
You want to know your beliefs.
You want to know why you thinkwhat you think.
Figure out why you're reactinga certain way.
Why do you react a certain way?
And most of us react and thenemote.
That reaction becomes physical.
It goes out from us before weeven stop it in its tracks and
say why am I thinking that, whyam I reacting to that?
(14:50):
Right, that's okay.
And then the second one I askedyou to look at was begin by oh
sorry, begin by moving yourpercent to 85%.
Upon waking, direct yourthoughts.
How many of you wake up in themorning and direct your day as
soon as you wake up?
(15:11):
Okay, good, good for many ofyou.
So when you wake up in themorning, most of us experience
the body Anybody, don't?
You wake up and experience yourbody?
What it feels like?
Are you stuffed up?
What happened over the night?
You know?
Are you, are you, are you?
(15:31):
Do you have aches and pains,whatever?
We wake up and we think of ourbodies.
But here's the funny part howmany of you have ever done
something?
You've had some kind of pain orsomething, but you had to do
something important.
So you just did what you had todo and your pain was no longer
part of your mind and yourconsciousness.
It kind of goes away, doesn'tit?
So if you wake up in themorning and before you get
(15:52):
involved in your body, youinstantly get involved with your
mind and start paying attentionto what you said you wanted to
do, what you wanted toaccomplish, what you wanted to
do that day, what you wanted todo in life.
What's your mindset, what doyou believe, even checking
reactions that you may have letgo by, start your day with that.
So the third thing I asked waswhy do you feel what you feel
(16:16):
and have certain emotionsregarding things in your life?
So we're at the end of thismonth, but there's still days
left for you to really focus onthese three things.
Why do you feel what you feel?
Well, you feel what you feelbecause you've been thinking
what you've been thinking.
95% of your feelings are comingfrom all of this, and then
(16:37):
there's maybe 5% that you feelsomething new, but most of your
feelings are old, worn-outfeelings that you're feeling
over and over and over again.
And I'm suggesting that we takethat at least 10% back so that
we feel different things and,most importantly, that we ask
ourselves why am I feeling this?
(16:58):
Why do I feel this?
So, change your patterns,change your life.
You know what one such patternis in this world.
You know that there's Newtonianscience and there is quantum
science.
Newtonian science is thescience of Newton, where it's
named from, but Newtonianscience is the science of Newton
(17:19):
where it's named from, butNewtonian science is the science
of out here.
What's out here, what can I see, what can I prove, what can I
touch?
That's Newtonian science, andNewtonian science is all about
cause and effect.
Now, the irony is that we teachcause and effect, which means
we've been living in an old,outdated science and most of us
(17:40):
live with this cause and effect,which means we've been living
in an old, outdated science andmost of us live with this cause
and effect.
We look to see what's happeningand we see the effect of it,
and then we start thinking well,we need to make something
happen in order to affect whatwe want.
That's not how it works,because quantum is not cause and
effect, because quantum is notcause and effect.
Quantum is causal and effect.
(18:01):
You know what the difference is.
You're not what you do, you'rewho you are, and who you are is
constantly creating, constantlythinking, constantly believing,
constantly making choices.
That's causal.
And the quantum field, which isthis energetic field, it's God,
(18:22):
this field that is listening toyou and giving you back
whatever you put into it, thatfield, that causal field, that
effective field, will be theeffect to whatever you cause.
That's quantum.
That's living in a muchdifferent philosophy, because
(18:43):
you are energy, you are thecause to the energy that happens
in your life.
So I want you to think for onesecond about what's happened in
your life, even just this pastweek.
Can you look at it and realizethat you caused it, that there's
nothing outside of you that'scausing anything in your life?
(19:04):
Now, that's hard, because mostpeople live in a Newtonian state
of mind they see the government, they see the wars, they see
the tariffs, they see, you know,the economy, they see all the
things out there that areaffecting my life, when in fact
the only thing affecting yourlife in this quantum field is
(19:26):
you Causal and effect effect,not cause and effect causal,
which takes the whole thing toyou, the whole thing to your
responsibility.
So here's the other thing theuniverse is doing nothing,
nothing other than existing,perfectly, beautifully,
creatively, expansively.
(19:46):
The universe is just floatingeverywhere, like in that song I
sang, the universe is rightthere.
All it's waiting for is for youto cause it to do something.
Like the Queen, you knowwhatever she says.
So it's just waiting for you tosay I want success in my life
Period.
I want success in my life.
(20:07):
How many people want success intheir life period?
I want success in my life.
How many people want success intheir life?
How many people want even moreprosperity and money in their
life?
How many people want love intheir life?
How many people want to feelfulfilled every day when they
wake up, to just feel fulfilledin everything they do?
Okay, that's what you have totell the universe.
(20:27):
That's what you have to tellthe universe.
That's what you have to causeto happen, not just wait and see
how cause and effect works outhere, to see how it's helping
you.
No, you're the cause to it.
So here's the thing what areyou giving the universe to do?
I feel like you're all like ohmy God.
(20:52):
But really, what are you givingthe universe to do?
I've given the universe thisweek a number of things I need
it to do.
I require it to do Financially,in terms of my joy quotient, in
terms of my creativity.
In terms of my health and mybody.
(21:12):
I have given the universe somany thoughts this week that I
couldn't possibly be thinking95% of what I thought yesterday.
I'm too busy thinking what Iwant now, what I absolutely
require now.
Now you may feel, sitting here,you're thinking.
That seems like a lot of work.
Guess what it is.
(21:35):
It's a lot of work to be thatattentive to your thoughts.
It's a lot of work to callyourself on your bullshit that's
a spiritual word, anthony.
It's a lot of work to reallystay awake to what you're doing
and how you are the cause ofyour life.
It requires you to get involvedin your thinking.
(21:58):
So thus, pattern interrupted.
So how will you interrupt yourmind?
It's all about you interruptingthe same old life goes on, life
goes on.
Blah, blah dee, oh blah dah.
How are you going to interruptit?
Begin your morning, begin yourwhole day by waking up and
(22:18):
directing your thoughts, whichis already going to move you
back from 95%.
And the last one, the third oneknow what you want and hold to
it.
See, that's really the deal.
If you're not getting what youwant, you're not holding to it
(22:40):
when I say you're not equal toit if you're not getting what
you want, you're not holding toit when I say you're not equal
to it if you're not knowing whatyou want and really staying
firmly fixed to it, no matterwhat's going on, because most of
us, in our Newtonian style ofliving, we don't see it, so it's
not happening.
Now, what am I?
Filling my mind with Regret,disappointment, anger, all of
those things which only have 5%left in my mind, because I'm
(23:01):
still using all those 95%,apparently.
So you got a lot of work to do,don't you?
Some of them are going.
I'm not doing that, and youknow what?
Here's the deal.
If you're not doing that,that's okay, but don't expect
your life to change.
Don't expect your life tochange.
(23:22):
Don't expect prosperity ifyou're not willing to invest in
you.
Invest in prosperity.
Don't expect health if you'renot willing to invest in what
the mind can cause in your body.
And get away, not leave.
Doctors.
We are not Christian science,but pay attention, do what you
need to do, but that mind betterbe 100% behind.
(23:46):
I am full health.
So, universe, I've orderedhealth, not a little bit of this
and a little bit of that.
So what are you ordering?
What are you willing to tellthe universe you require Because
I'm going to end with ErnestHolmes, which got me into this
teaching there is a power forgood in the universe, greater
(24:09):
than you are, and you can use itbecause you are it and I say
Ernest Holmes today because I dothe, because you are it and I'm
sure he would have done itfirst.
So that power, that energy,that quantum field, that mind
that you have, you're sittingwith it right now.
(24:37):
You are sitting as it right nowand the thoughts you're putting
into your mind is designing thelife you are living and the
life you will continue to live.
You can move that percentageway back, but first you have to
acknowledge that that's what'sgoing on and second you have to
decide to do something about it.
We have the ability, we've beentold the ability, we've been
(24:59):
taught this teaching.
I have lived in this philosophyfor 30 some odd years after I
was crazy as an actor and itchanged my entire career.
When I started this.
It literally changed my wholecareer in a positive way.
So there's a lot to glean fromthis, but just knowing it on a
(25:21):
Sunday, just showing up on aSunday and having fun, that's
not going to cut it.
You have to do the work to livethe results, and that starts
with you knowing what you wantand holding onto it, no matter
what.
No matter what.
Oobla dee, oobla da.
Life goes on until youinterrupt it with definite,
(25:47):
absolute thinking that takes youwhere you want to go.
Namaste.
Oobla dee, oobla da.
Life goes on and on and on andon and on right, and it just
keeps going.
Your life just keeps going.
So I have a question for youtoday, and it's this Do you
(00:23):
believe that what you thinkdirectly influences what happens
in your life?
Yes, okay, good, show of hands.
Now, before you raise your hand, diane, before you raise your
hand, I want you to really thinkabout this, because the first
line says do you believe,absolutely believe, believe that
(00:47):
what you think directly, notindirectly, directly influences
what happens in your life?
Now, show of hands.
Who believes that?
Okay, show of hands.
Who doesn't believe that?
Okay, there's a couple of youthat don't believe that.
Okay, good, okay, good, notgood.
But I'll get to it.
(01:09):
So I have some information foryou.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in one minute?
10, 20, 100, 100.
You may have some OCD going on.
No, it is 6.5 transmittedthoughts per minute.
(01:36):
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have a day?
A jillion?
Who said that?
You said that.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in a day, eric?
23,204.
Billion, who said that?
You said that.
How many thoughts do you thinkyou have in a day, eric?
It's like the jelly beans atthe truck.
Karen, how many do you thinkyou have?
A lot More than what yourhusband thinks you should have.
(02:03):
We'll address that too.
So here's the real answer.
People think that it's like20,000.
I even heard a speaker at theMindvalley Summit who said
20,000 to 40,000 thoughts a day.
It's not correct.
After all, the scientific proofon how many thoughts does the
(02:25):
average person have a day?
It's only 6,000 to 10,000thoughts a day.
We have 6 to 10,000 thoughts aday, 6.5 thoughts a minute.
Now here's the next question Ihave for you how many of those
thoughts that you are havingtoday do you think are the same
(02:47):
thoughts that you had yesterday?
How many?
What percentage do you think?
50%, 60%, 70%?
I feel like I'm like, I'll gofor it and it's sold to.
So we got to 70%, right?
75.
95.
(03:09):
You think it's 95, liz?
Okay, liz is right, it's 95%.
Did you just Google that?
Okay, good.
So research suggests that 95%of what we are thinking right
now we thought yesterday and theday before that and the day
(03:33):
before that.
Life goes on and we keepthinking the same thoughts over
and over and over, even whenwe're not that happy with our
lives, even when we are not,even when we want to create new
(03:54):
things in our lives.
What are we doing?
We're still.
Do you believe that what youthink directly influences what
happens in your life?
Well, if you're going to think95% of the same thoughts every
single day, how do you expectthe changes you want in your
life to take place?
How do you think they're goingto materialize?
(04:15):
How are your dreams going to bemanifest?
How are your desires going tobe listened to and brought
forward when we keep thinkingthe same thoughts over and over
and over?
The Buddha says what we thinkwe become.
So who you are today sittinghere, is nothing more than a
(04:36):
full amalgamation of what you'vebeen thinking your whole life.
Does that work for you?
It's a positive thing.
It can be a negative thing, itcould make you feel sad and
depressed, but it could alsomake and it could hurt, but it
could also feel really great torealize you have that kind of
(04:58):
power, exactly what Caressa wastalking about.
You have the power of QueenElizabeth.
Ernest Holmes said change yourthinking, thinking, change your
life.
You ever hear that before.
Change your thinking, changeyour life.
(05:27):
So it's a very great what.
Remember that if you changeyour thinking, you'll change
your life, and then you don't doit.
If you are getting older andlosing your mind is because you
bought into that premise,because people's minds should
get stronger and more creativeas they get older, not less.
(05:51):
That's the truth of what themind is before you dirty it with
all your thinking.
So change your thinking, changeyour life.
Ernest Holmes, that's true.
We've heard it forever.
Most of you just agreed.
Only two of you said no to theidea that you believe that what
you're thinking is changing yourlife.
(06:12):
Ernest Holmes has said it aswell.
James Allen, who is the fatherof positive thinking, the father
of new thought, also the fatherof all that we do in today's
society in terms of searchingthrough ourselves to see what's
going on.
He says you are today whereyour thoughts have brought you.
(06:32):
You will be tomorrow where yourthoughts take you.
So right now you're sittinghere and your thoughts brought
you to this chair today, forwhatever reason, to see the
icons of your family sing.
Whatever reason you are here,whatever that is.
It all came from all this pastthinking, but I love that.
(06:56):
You will be tomorrow where yourthoughts take you.
So the thing is, if 95% of mythinking is the same as it was
yesterday.
Then where am I taking myself?
Pretty much the same place.
And who knows, maybe that other5%?
I've actually darkened thatpath.
(07:17):
I never said that the other 5%was the dynamic divine goodness
that I think.
No, who knows what that other5% is.
It could just be I have 95%that I think all the time and
then I have my 5% that I reactto when I'm in my world.
I react to things who knowswhat it is.
So if my thoughts fromyesterday brought me here today
(07:41):
and if my thoughts today bringme forward, then what just give
me?
Yell it out what seems like thelogical answer Change your
thinking Right Now.
How can you change yourthinking?
It's interesting this man wrotea book called as you Thinketh.
So when I met Kevin, I was Iforget how old I was 33, maybe
(08:04):
33.
I met Kevin playing the role ofCandide in Candide, the musical
in St Louis at St Louis Rep,and the musical director and
conductor one day, and I was aforce to be reckoned with.
If you can only imagine, I hadan enormous ego.
(08:27):
I mean, yes, but the ego I havetoday is the ego called
entertaining God.
Only that was edging God out.
So I did and I was difficult, Iwas very difficult, but this
(08:48):
composer and this conductor andmusical director really believed
in me, really really believedin me, and he handed me this
book, as a man Thinketh, and Ilooked at it and basically just
thought you're crazy, I'm notreading a book and I never
looked at it.
I just never looked at it.
But when I look back and when Ilike think about that moment, I
think Somewhere in me Somethingwas asking me pay attention.
(09:13):
A because you're screwing upyour career, because nobody
wants to work with an egomaniacunless they have to.
So, as a man thinketh, so he is.
If you want a differenttomorrow, you have to think
different thoughts.
If you want different thoughts,you have to think and develop
(09:38):
different beliefs.
James Allen also said this theouter conditions of a person's
life will always be found toreflect their inner beliefs.
So take a look at yourconditions, just look at your
life, who you are today.
Are you all following me?
Great, so really, really lookto see what your life is like
(09:58):
right now.
And for many of you, I want youall to ask yourself where do I
want to go?
Because the disparity betweenyour life today and where you
want to go is all about yourbeliefs.
Where you want to go is onlyavailable to you if the belief
(10:21):
is equal to what that is, and weteach that.
So it goes all right back tothinking so if the outer
conditions of a person's life isfound in their beliefs, this
whole month has been aboutunderstanding why you are where
you are with, who you're withand what you're doing.
That's what this whole monthhas been about understanding
(10:41):
that, about yourself, and notbeing afraid of what comes up.
If what comes up is oh my god,anybody have that come up this
month where suddenly it was like, how did I get here?
Well, you can say, how did Iget here to the cows got home,
but the answer is you broughtyourself here, your thoughts
brought yourself here, yourbeliefs brought yourself here
(11:05):
because we live in a dynamicuniverse that operates from your
beliefs.
So you have to know what yourbeliefs are.
You have to understand who youare and why you are the way you
are.
So everything I've said so farthis morning are we all in
agreement with this?
Yes, anybody disagrees with allof this, because it's very
(11:29):
possible, whether you know it ornot that you're in agreement
with me, because I'm presentingit in a way that makes it seem
like there's no other way, andthe truth is there's no other
way for you to get there, butthere are many other ways.
You can keep believing thatsomehow you are a victim to the
universe.
If that's your AEP, you cankeep believing that.
(11:53):
It doesn't matter what youthink, there are things out
there that will make my lifewhat it is.
You can keep believing anything.
You can believe anything and infact, right now, today, you are
believing lots of things.
But if you don't know what theyare, they're just on auto run,
autopilot.
They're running your life pilot.
(12:14):
They're running your life.
So the title of my talk todayis Pattern Interrupted.
Can you imagine what this isabout?
So today is all aboutinterrupting the way you think,
consciously and subconsciously.
So all of your thinking thatyou're doing creates patterns.
(12:38):
You all have patterns ofthinking and as I spent the week
dealing with this talk andthinking about this talk, I
started to ask myself about thepatterns I have, and it was
shocking to me that there weresome patterns that I hadn't
noticed in my life.
One was a reaction I have to acertain thing when it happens.
(12:59):
And I've been asking us all allmonth to do these three things
consciously and subconsciously.
So let's start with the firstone.
Oh well, change your patterns,change your life.
I forgot that one.
That's my new thing.
Change your thinking, changeyour life.
Fine, change your patterns,change your life.
But in order to change yourpatterns, you have to get in
(13:19):
there and change your beliefs.
So, nope, going the wrong way,pattern interrupted.
So here's the first one.
Begin by moving your percentageto 85 percent.
Do you think you could do that?
This guy cannot do it.
This guy's just like.
(13:45):
That seems like a lot.
10%.
Could you move your thinking?
I got to tell you.
I believe this week I havemoved probably 50% of my
thinking to the other side, toconscious thoughts, because I've
paid so much attention thisweek to what I'm thinking and to
why I'm thinking it, and I willnot let those thoughts go rogue
(14:06):
and just let them flip bywithout going.
Yo come here, was that to you?
Yo, there you go.
Yeah.
So this month I've asked you topay attention to your reactions
and understanding.
If you don't know why you'rereacting the way you're reacting
, you don't understand yourself,you don't know where it's
(14:28):
coming from.
You want to know your beliefs.
You want to know why you thinkwhat you think.
Figure out why you're reactinga certain way.
Why do you react a certain way?
And most of us react and thenemote.
That reaction becomes physical.
It goes out from us before weeven stop it in its tracks and
say why am I thinking that, whyam I reacting to that?
(14:50):
Right, that's okay.
And then the second one I askedyou to look at was begin by oh
sorry, begin by moving yourpercent to 85%.
Upon waking, direct yourthoughts.
How many of you wake up in themorning and direct your day as
soon as you wake up?
(15:11):
Okay, good, good for many ofyou.
So when you wake up in themorning, most of us experience
the body Anybody, don't?
You wake up and experience yourbody?
What it feels like?
Are you stuffed up?
What happened over the night?
You know?
Are you, are you, are you?
(15:31):
Do you have aches and pains,whatever?
We wake up and we think of ourbodies.
But here's the funny part howmany of you have ever done
something?
You've had some kind of pain orsomething, but you had to do
something important.
So you just did what you had todo and your pain was no longer
part of your mind and yourconsciousness.
It kind of goes away, doesn'tit?
So if you wake up in themorning and before you get
(15:52):
involved in your body, youinstantly get involved with your
mind and start paying attentionto what you said you wanted to
do, what you wanted toaccomplish, what you wanted to
do that day, what you wanted todo in life.
What's your mindset, what doyou believe, even checking
reactions that you may have letgo by, start your day with that.
So the third thing I asked waswhy do you feel what you feel
(16:16):
and have certain emotionsregarding things in your life?
So we're at the end of thismonth, but there's still days
left for you to really focus onthese three things.
Why do you feel what you feel?
Well, you feel what you feelbecause you've been thinking
what you've been thinking.
95% of your feelings are comingfrom all of this, and then
(16:37):
there's maybe 5% that you feelsomething new, but most of your
feelings are old, worn-outfeelings that you're feeling
over and over and over again.
And I'm suggesting that we takethat at least 10% back so that
we feel different things and,most importantly, that we ask
ourselves why am I feeling this?
(16:58):
Why do I feel this?
So, change your patterns,change your life.
You know what one such patternis in this world.
You know that there's Newtonianscience and there is quantum
science.
Newtonian science is thescience of Newton, where it's
named from, but Newtonianscience is the science of Newton
(17:19):
where it's named from, butNewtonian science is the science
of out here.
What's out here, what can I see, what can I prove, what can I
touch?
That's Newtonian science, andNewtonian science is all about
cause and effect.
Now, the irony is that we teachcause and effect, which means
we've been living in an old,outdated science and most of us
(17:40):
live with this cause and effect,which means we've been living
in an old, outdated science andmost of us live with this cause
and effect.
We look to see what's happeningand we see the effect of it,
and then we start thinking well,we need to make something
happen in order to affect whatwe want.
That's not how it works,because quantum is not cause and
effect, because quantum is notcause and effect.
Quantum is causal and effect.
(18:01):
You know what the difference is.
You're not what you do, you'rewho you are, and who you are is
constantly creating, constantlythinking, constantly believing,
constantly making choices.
That's causal.
And the quantum field, which isthis energetic field, it's God,
(18:22):
this field that is listening toyou and giving you back
whatever you put into it, thatfield, that causal field, that
effective field, will be theeffect to whatever you cause.
That's quantum.
That's living in a muchdifferent philosophy, because
(18:43):
you are energy, you are thecause to the energy that happens
in your life.
So I want you to think for onesecond about what's happened in
your life, even just this pastweek.
Can you look at it and realizethat you caused it, that there's
nothing outside of you that'scausing anything in your life?
(19:04):
Now, that's hard, because mostpeople live in a Newtonian state
of mind they see the government, they see the wars, they see
the tariffs, they see, you know,the economy, they see all the
things out there that areaffecting my life, when in fact
the only thing affecting yourlife in this quantum field is
(19:26):
you Causal and effect effect,not cause and effect causal,
which takes the whole thing toyou, the whole thing to your
responsibility.
So here's the other thing theuniverse is doing nothing,
nothing other than existing,perfectly, beautifully,
creatively, expansively.
(19:46):
The universe is just floatingeverywhere, like in that song I
sang, the universe is rightthere.
All it's waiting for is for youto cause it to do something.
Like the Queen, you knowwhatever she says.
So it's just waiting for you tosay I want success in my life
Period.
I want success in my life.
(20:07):
How many people want success intheir life period?
I want success in my life.
How many people want success intheir life?
How many people want even moreprosperity and money in their
life?
How many people want love intheir life?
How many people want to feelfulfilled every day when they
wake up, to just feel fulfilledin everything they do?
Okay, that's what you have totell the universe.
(20:27):
That's what you have to tellthe universe.
That's what you have to causeto happen, not just wait and see
how cause and effect works outhere, to see how it's helping
you.
No, you're the cause to it.
So here's the thing what areyou giving the universe to do?
I feel like you're all like ohmy God.
(20:52):
But really, what are you givingthe universe to do?
I've given the universe thisweek a number of things I need
it to do.
I require it to do Financially,in terms of my joy quotient, in
terms of my creativity.
In terms of my health and mybody.
(21:12):
I have given the universe somany thoughts this week that I
couldn't possibly be thinking95% of what I thought yesterday.
I'm too busy thinking what Iwant now, what I absolutely
require now.
Now you may feel, sitting here,you're thinking.
That seems like a lot of work.
Guess what it is.
(21:35):
It's a lot of work to be thatattentive to your thoughts.
It's a lot of work to callyourself on your bullshit that's
a spiritual word, anthony.
It's a lot of work to reallystay awake to what you're doing
and how you are the cause ofyour life.
It requires you to get involvedin your thinking.
(21:58):
So thus, pattern interrupted.
So how will you interrupt yourmind?
It's all about you interruptingthe same old life goes on, life
goes on.
Blah, blah dee, oh blah dah.
How are you going to interruptit?
Begin your morning, begin yourwhole day by waking up and
(22:18):
directing your thoughts, whichis already going to move you
back from 95%.
And the last one, the third oneknow what you want and hold to
it.
See, that's really the deal.
If you're not getting what youwant, you're not holding to it
(22:40):
when I say you're not equal toit if you're not getting what
you want, you're not holding toit when I say you're not equal
to it if you're not knowing whatyou want and really staying
firmly fixed to it, no matterwhat's going on, because most of
us, in our Newtonian style ofliving, we don't see it, so it's
not happening.
Now, what am I?
Filling my mind with Regret,disappointment, anger, all of
those things which only have 5%left in my mind, because I'm
(23:01):
still using all those 95%,apparently.
So you got a lot of work to do,don't you?
Some of them are going.
I'm not doing that, and youknow what?
Here's the deal.
If you're not doing that,that's okay, but don't expect
your life to change.
Don't expect your life tochange.
(23:22):
Don't expect prosperity ifyou're not willing to invest in
you.
Invest in prosperity.
Don't expect health if you'renot willing to invest in what
the mind can cause in your body.
And get away, not leave.
Doctors.
We are not Christian science,but pay attention, do what you
need to do, but that mind betterbe 100% behind.
(23:46):
I am full health.
So, universe, I've orderedhealth, not a little bit of this
and a little bit of that.
So what are you ordering?
What are you willing to tellthe universe you require Because
I'm going to end with ErnestHolmes, which got me into this
teaching there is a power forgood in the universe, greater
(24:09):
than you are, and you can use itbecause you are it and I say
Ernest Holmes today because I dothe, because you are it and I'm
sure he would have done itfirst.
So that power, that energy,that quantum field, that mind
that you have, you're sittingwith it right now.
(24:37):
You are sitting as it right nowand the thoughts you're putting
into your mind is designing thelife you are living and the
life you will continue to live.
You can move that percentageway back, but first you have to
acknowledge that that's what'sgoing on and second you have to
decide to do something about it.
We have the ability, we've beentold the ability, we've been
(24:59):
taught this teaching.
I have lived in this philosophyfor 30 some odd years after I
was crazy as an actor and itchanged my entire career.
When I started this.
It literally changed my wholecareer in a positive way.
So there's a lot to glean fromthis, but just knowing it on a
(25:21):
Sunday, just showing up on aSunday and having fun, that's
not going to cut it.
You have to do the work to livethe results, and that starts
with you knowing what you wantand holding onto it, no matter
what.
No matter what.
Oobla dee, oobla da.
Life goes on until youinterrupt it with definite,
(25:47):
absolute thinking that takes youwhere you want to go.
Namaste.
