We explore how releasing inhibitions and old emotional patterns allows us to manifest our deepest desires. Starting with lyrics from Natasha Bedingfield's "Unwritten," we unpack how opening our "dirty windows" of perception lets in the illuminating light of new possibilities.
• Our minds accumulate emotional clutter that blocks manifestation
• Inhibitions are feelings from beliefs that restrict our natural expression
• You manifest what you feel—emotions create the electrical current for manifestation
• 95% of thoughts from yesterday are repeated today, creating the same reality
• "If you can't name it, you can't claim it"—clarity is essential for manifestation
• The heart's vibrations are five times more powerful than the brain's
• Breaking patterns requires absolute decisions that don't waver
• Walking through darkness while maintaining your creative light
• Refusing to think thoughts that don't support your desired manifestation
The key to manifesting is naming what you want with clarity, claiming it with emotional conviction, and refusing to turn away when distractions arise. Release your inhibitions and make absolute decisions about what you will and won't accept in your thinking.

Dr. James Mellon (00:00):
Okay, let's look at these lyrics, right at
the top.
Apparently, thank God, we'resort of seeing it Staring at the
blank page before you open up.
It's right in front of me too.
Open up that dirty window.
Let the sun illuminate thewords that you cannot find
reaching for something in thedistance, so close you can
(00:23):
almost taste it.
Release your inhibitions.
So just look at those lyricsfor a minute.
I love this song.
I mean clearly a song.
It's so simple.
The concept of this song iseveryone and it's not that
everybody has a book to write.
Everybody has within themthings that they want to do,
(00:44):
things that they want toaccomplish.
And when you look at thebeginning and the staring at the
blank page before you, that cansound daunting, but it's not.
Every one of us have a blankslate.
Every moment we take a deepbreath, and which is why I was
saying that, robbie, leaveeverything else behind us and
not stay focused on the past andnot stay focused on anything
(01:08):
behind you, but that there'sjust this blank page to do
whatever you decide to do, right?
So, staring at the blank pagebefore you open up that dirty
window.
You know what that dirty windowis?
Your mind, your mind, our mindshave become a little cloudy, a
little dirty, a little cruddy,with all of the crap from the
(01:31):
past and all of the beliefs thatwe've accumulated over all
these years, all of the emotions, all of the feelings, all of
the energy that has come with uson this journey.
But in any moment you can stopand say I start over.
Here's a blank page, and I lovethat.
Open up the dirty window.
(01:51):
Let the sun illuminate thewords that you cannot find.
You can't find them becauseyou're still staring at all that
clutter.
You can't find the newnessbecause you can't let go of the
oldness.
You can't find the new feeling,the new emotion because you're
still hung up on the oldemotions, the old feelings,
(02:11):
everything that has happened uptill now.
But what is the Sun?
The Sun?
Let the Sun illuminate thewords.
Let that inside of you that ispure, that is, that is pure
light, that is creativity.
Light that is creativity, thatis energy, starting a whole new
life.
In every moment you decide to dothat, reaching for something in
(02:32):
the distance, so close you canalmost taste it.
This is my favorite line Do youall have something that you can
almost taste it?
You're almost there.
Something that you are so clear, is yours Something that you
want, really want?
And here's the thing this isour month of manifestation,
(02:52):
right?
Manifest.
The theme is manifest becausethat's a verb to manifest
something, but you've got toknow what it is.
So what is that?
What do you want, right, what'sso close that you can almost
taste it.
Very often something is soclose.
Um, tony Roberts used to talk inin his program about the idea
(03:14):
that generally, just as you'reabout to cross the threshold of
exactly where you want to be andwhat you want to be doing,
something comes along anddistracts you away from it.
And it's usually right as it'sabout to happen when you have
given it everything and you'veworked your butt off and you are
so close, it's so close you canalmost taste it and then
(03:37):
something happens, you getdistracted and you turn away.
And the only reason you getdistracted and turn away is
because something inside of youwas not 100% all in in belief
and you believed that there wassomething that could distract
you, something that could takeyou away from that.
It's funny, hold on.
(03:59):
It's funny.
I'm saying that on the day ofthe Tony Awards, which are my
sports.
I'm saying that on the day ofthe Tony Awards, which are my
sports, and you know, I thinkfor years I always left the door
open that it could be possiblethat I would go to my grave
without winning a Tony Award.
I don't believe that anymore Atall At all.
(04:20):
You with me.
Good, you watch, because I willthank Global Truth center when
I win.
Somewhere in the list.
Kevin's already told me he hasto be first, so, yes, although
he's told me he's going to winmy before me, so we'll see about
that.
So the last line is release yourinhibitions, which is why I
(04:42):
made it so big and bold.
What are inhibitions?
What are inhibitions?
I'm?
Let me ask you this how manypeople here consider themselves
to be inhibited?
That you have inhibitions.
That you're.
I love that the hands are goingup slowly, that clearly you
have inhibitions.
Okay, so there you go.
(05:02):
Okay so.
And how many of you consideryourself to be free of
inhibitions?
Okay, so there you go.
Okay so, and how many of youconsider yourself to be free of
inhibitions?
You're just free spirits andjust run and do anything that
you think of and don't care whatanybody thinks about you?
Four people, okay, okay.
Well, I think Friday night Iproved that I have no
(05:22):
inhibitions whatsoever.
Yes, although I was supposed tostrip naked at the end of the
play.
Okay, well, I think Fridaynight I proved that I have no
inhibitions whatsoever yes,although I was supposed to strip
naked at the end of the play.
But I could not fathom doingthat on this stage.
And even when we did it at theNoHo Arts Center, which was
still my church I mean, ourchurch was on that stage too.
(05:44):
But we got.
I did it once.
Remember Connie it?
It ruined her.
She's still in therapy.
Um, connie was what the scarsare deep.
Connie was the costume designerand she was in the house.
When I finally, I said kevinsaid, if you're going to strip
naked when you talk about cancerand talk about how it took
everything away from you, thenyou got to do it.
And it's our last dressrehearsal before the first
(06:04):
preview.
You got to do it.
And I said's our last dressrehearsal before the first
preview.
You got to do it and I saidI've just been waiting until I
feel comfortable enough to dothat.
So we do the rehearsal and Istrip down naked and all I can
see.
I mean my husband's there, lukewas there, the sound designer
was there, that was it.
But all I could see was Conniesitting up in the balcony and I
(06:26):
was like no, no.
And then I went oh my God,tomorrow night it's going to be
a room full of Connie's.
The whole church is coming tosee this.
And I said to Kevin, this isnever happening again.
I will go to boxer shorts.
That's the best I think.
Boxers I wore right, they weretighty-whities.
Ok, that's the best I think.
Boxers I wore right, they weretighty-whities.
(06:47):
Okay, that's as far as I went.
But I had some inhibitions backthen.
I don't anymore, I really don't.
And we are going to remountthis show as a full show, but
not on this, but not in thesanctuary.
Enough has been said in thesanctuary, right, steve,
wouldn't you say so?
(07:09):
Inhibitions let's look at this.
Inhibitions, feelings that makeone self-conscious and unable
to act in a relaxed and naturalway.
Have you ever had that momentwhen you're just, you're not
yourself, you say stupid things,you behave differently, you're
walking differently, right?
You just feel someone has saidsomething about you and you no
(07:32):
longer can be natural in whatyou're doing because you're
thinking about it.
Actors go through that all thetime.
And then the second one avoluntary or involuntary
restraint on the directexpression of an instinct.
A voluntary or involuntaryrestraint on the direct
(07:52):
expression of an instinct.
Go back to the top.
An inhibition is a feeling.
It's a feeling.
Where do feelings come from?
Feelings come from your beliefs.
Feelings come from your alreadyestablished premise of life.
So when you believe somethingthat you're not talented, you're
not strong, you're notmasculine enough, you're not
(08:15):
whatever, whatever that beliefis, your feelings come from that
.
Now here's the thing aboutfeelings and manifestation.
Your feelings are the directmanifester in your life.
You manifest what you feel.
You manifest from your emotions.
The emotions are what causesthe electrical current.
(08:38):
It's the currency that you paywith for the manifestation that
you're looking for.
That you pay with for themanifestation that you're
looking for.
Many of us have inhibitions whenit comes to what we believe
about our lives.
We have inhibitions aroundfeeling prosperous.
We have inhibitions aroundfeeling successful.
(09:01):
We have inhibitions aboutfeeling that we deserve love or
we deserve to give love,whatever it is.
But these inhibitions, they'renot just stopping you from
getting up on stage and talking.
They're stopping you fromreceiving the life that you say
you want.
And in a month of manifest,it's time for us to get really
clear why we are manifesting andwhy perhaps we're not
(09:26):
manifesting.
And if you're not manifesting,what you want to manifest?
Joe Dispenza was doing thisworkshop and a woman got up and
she said I am doing themeditations, I'm visualizing,
I'm living in the future, whichhe talks about a lot, bringing
the emotions to play of what youwant.
(09:48):
It's all about emotions.
He says I'm doing all of thisand it's still not showing up.
And he just I loved his answer.
It was like so clear and hejust said well, you're just not
good enough.
That was it.
The whole room was like he saidno, it's true, you're not good
enough yet.
(10:09):
As soon as you stop pretendingand stop believing all the crap
you believe about yourself,you'll manifest.
It's that clear.
It's not about your words, it'snot about your visualizations.
What's it doing to you?
If it's not doing anything toyou, you're not doing anything
to it and it's not showing upbecause you're just not good
(10:32):
enough at it yet.
And you know what.
You're not good enough atletting your inhibitions go.
Just be done with them.
Be done with anything thatstops you in any way, shape or
form.
And you know what else.
Be done with them.
Be done with anything thatstops you in any way, shape or
form.
And you know what else?
Be done with anybody that stopsyou.
We all have them.
Everybody has people aroundthem the naysayers, the laughers
(10:55):
, the ones that are like, yeah,go ahead, try that, see if you
can make that happen.
You all know who I'm talkingabout in your own personal lives
.
You know.
For me it was my grandfatherwho, luckily, in Sissy Boo, I
really tear him down.
That's my favorite part of theshow when I get to play my
(11:15):
grandmother calling him anasshole Excuse me, brad, that's
one I mean.
The whole point of this is youknow who supports you.
You know who helps you designyour life, as opposed to helps
keep you back, because it makesthem feel safe, and we need to
(11:39):
be done with those.
So vibrations.
Albert Einstein said everythingin life is a vibration.
Everything in life is avibration.
Everything in life is avibration.
Catherine, you're sitting thereright now vibrating from
whatever, from whatever I'msaying, whatever you're thinking
about what I'm saying, whetheryou're daydreaming or moving
somewhere else, whatever, butyou're vibrating from that.
Every single person in thisroom is vibrating, luke.
(12:00):
You're vibrating from all ofyour life and what's going on in
it, right so that vibration isalive and well right now
vibrating.
Luke, you're vibrating from allof your life and what's going
on in it, right so thatvibration is alive and well
right now, right where you are.
What's going to change it?
What's going to turn thataround?
What's going to stop thevibration from vibrating the way
it's vibrating?
Because your vibration isnothing more than the outward
(12:23):
manifestation of your emotions.
That's what you vibrate from,your emotions.
So the question is where areyou emotionally?
And, and, more importantly,what?
What emotions are you stillholding on to from the past?
I have a lot of stuff in thepast that I have a lot of stuff
in the past that I have emotionabout.
(12:44):
Do you all?
So there are things in the past.
Something came up the other dayI don't usually talk about this
that much in my Broadway career,after West Side Story, I was
cast to star in a new musicalrevival opposite one of the
(13:05):
world's greatest ballerinas,makarova, and I was going to do
that and then, at the lastminute, the director changed his
mind and went in a totallydifferent direction and there
was a lot of emotion around that.
There was a lot of regret andanger.
There was a lot of failurearound that, especially because
(13:29):
then I had to watch the showopen on Broadway.
It was a hit.
He got a Tony nomination.
You know, a lot happened.
A lot happened that whole twoyears from the moment they
pulled the contract from me,which was only about a week
before rehearsal starting.
And the irony of the whole thingis that the director, who was
(13:55):
102 years old at the time,george Abbott, one of the
greatest Broadway directors ever, never wanted me.
The entire time I wasauditioning he told everyone he
said he's not really right forthe part.
But if I look at it in adifferent way, I still got
offered the role because I wasthe best person in New York City
(14:18):
at that time who could sing,dance, act and tap dance, which
needed to be done in that part.
But, as George Abbott would say, I was way too handsome.
That's a problem to have and Iwas too sure of myself.
I was too slick.
But he still cast me until hewent to see a show.
(14:41):
The understudy went on byaccident and the kid in the
chorus did it and he saw him andhe was this gangly, goofy guy
and the next morning he calledand said I want him and that was
it.
So all that emotion and Ibrought this all up this way to
show you all of that emotion Ican still bring up.
I can bring it up.
(15:02):
All of that emotion I can stillbring up.
I can bring it up, I can stillfeel, if I want to, I can feel
what that felt like.
I can feel like the also ran,the person that didn't get it.
I can bring all of that emotionup here.
And if I have that emotion now,how am I vibrating?
I'm vibrating from that emotion.
(15:24):
If I'm vibrating from thatemotion, I am manifesting my
life from that vibration thatcame from that emotion.
And we spend our whole livesdoing this, regurgitating
emotions and feelings and thepast, even if it was just last
week, and we live on that and wekeep living on that.
Joe Dispenza says this wecannot create a new future by
(15:48):
holding onto emotions of thepast.
I'd like you to bring up anemotion of the past right now
for yourself, something like Ijust did.
Just bring it up.
I want you to bring upsomething that happened to you
that you feel, and then I wantyou to feel it.
Just bring it up.
I want you to bring upsomething that happened to you,
that you feel, and then I wantyou to feel it Like.
Give yourself permission tofeel it.
(16:08):
Don't worry, I'm going to talkyou right out of it.
When you have it, when you'refeeling what that felt like,
raise your hand Okay.
(16:33):
Okay, know it or not, becauseyou could find it pretty quickly
and because you brought it up,it's still there.
It's still doing what it'smeant to do, which is to create
inside of you.
And imagine you just pulled outone.
How many do you think are inthere?
How much do you think is inthere in your subconscious mind
(16:55):
of all the things?
Even you, luke, how old are you?
20.
You've only had 21 years ofthis.
Try 70.
70 years of all of this.
It's all still there and it'sstill manifesting.
It's still creating.
So you ever really want to knowwhat's holding you back?
(17:18):
It's all of that leftunattended.
That's the work, that's themental work we all have in front
of us.
So the title of my talk todayis what Are you Going to Name it
?
Isn't that the cutest picture?
Every one of us has newbornsinside of us.
(17:38):
Each one of you here todaycould be born again.
Yesterday in Palm Springs.
We had an amazing service lastnight and someone came up to me
and talked to me about what theywant to create in their life
and, without missing a beat, Isaid something.
I said well, you know, youcould actually have that right
(17:59):
now.
Right now, you could startactually manifesting this by
accepting you already have this.
And he's the very next twowords.
What do you think?
The next two words were yeah,but, yeah, but.
And I turned to him and I saidwell, you should just name that
thing.
Yeah, but, because that's whatit is, that's what the universe
(18:21):
hears.
You want to know why you're notmanifesting.
You want to know why the auto,now auto atomic nervous system
is bringing from your brain toyour heart a sense of never
going to happen, because that'swhat you're sending it.
And then the heart's sendingback out what it wants and the
brain's still saying it nevergoing to happen.
And so there's this fight inthe middle of your awareness.
(18:42):
That's what we're studying inadvanced consciousness, because
it's all about the heart-mindconnection, the brain and the
heart connection.
And no, there is not a braininside the heart, but the brain
has waves and vibrations andenergies five times as powerful
as the brain.
So can the heart overcome thebrain?
(19:03):
Sure, because it's all aboutwhat you're feeling.
What are you feeling?
What are you allowing yourselfto feel?
And I'm going to suggest thatway too often we allow ourselves
to feel that stuff that's beingheld over from emotions that
are long past, due for throwingout, for being done with.
(19:24):
But it's your job to find outwhat those are.
So what are you going to nameit?
So this is my new quote If youcan't name it, you can't claim
it.
So if you're sitting here todayand you're like I don't know
what I want to manifest, well,then just say you don't want to
manifest.
Just say I don't want tomanifest anything.
(19:44):
Anybody want to say that?
No, but you might as well,because if you're sitting here
not naming it, you're not goingto claim it.
If I was in a lost and foundand you came up to me and said I
lost something, but I don'tknow what it is, what the hell
do you think I'm going to giveyou?
Well, let me give you thediamond we found.
That's probably what you lost.
No, not at all.
(20:05):
I'm going to say well, as soonas you can tell me what it is
and then describe it for me, andI want to see on your face that
you are emotionally connectedto whatever it is.
This thing is that you lost orthat you want, then I will give
it to you, because now you willbe emotionally equal to what
(20:25):
that is.
You say you want.
That's what this is all about.
That's what today is all about.
If you's what today is all about, if you can't name it, you
can't claim it.
And if you can't name itbecause you're afraid to name it
or because there's beliefsinside of you that's telling you
you can name it all you want,jim, but if you do, you're still
(20:47):
not getting it, because that'syour AEP in life.
Then there's the work.
That's the work that is infront of you.
If you want to manifestsomething more in your life, how
many people here a show ofhands want to manifest more in
their life?
That's everybody, right.
Is there anybody that doesn'twant to manifest anything more
(21:09):
in their life?
Because there are otherchurches around here that could
do that for you.
That's not what we're here todo, and I don't mean to negate
the work they do, but this isvery different what we do in
this room, what we do in NewThought churches.
It's about getting the powerand putting it back into your
(21:29):
lap so that you know how to doit Not just what you want, but
how to achieve what you want.
Yeah, I'm glad you all laughedat that picture.
Some of you are that pictureand all of us are that picture
at one time or another.
So Joseph Spencer says this samethoughts always lead to the
(21:52):
same choices, same choices leadto the same behavior and the
same behaviors lead to the sameexperiences and the same
experiences produce the sameemotions and these emotions
drive the very same thoughts andrinse and repeat Over and over
and over and over and we're inthis hamster wheel.
What did I say last week?
(22:14):
95% of what you thoughtyesterday, you're thinking today
.
Well, I am definitely somewherein the 50s at this point, which
is where my age is too.
Physically, I am definitelythinking new thoughts.
I am definitely using my mindin a new way.
My head has headphones on itmost of the day, listening to
(22:37):
podcasts, and that one I'm goingto listen to when I get home To
all the things that make senseto me now.
I don't need to revisit On yourToes from 1984.
That's never going to happen.
It's done, it's gone andbye-bye.
There's so many, so many thingsthat we could benefit from if we
(23:03):
understood them.
And the thing I want you towalk away with today I want you
to really understand that, ifyou can name what you want, you
have everything.
You need to claim it.
That's the truth, because youhave a heart that is beating and
(23:23):
thriving and expanding andsending all of this information
to you, and because you have abrain that you're in charge of,
not a brain that runs your life,but a brain that you're in
charge of.
Not a brain that runs your life, but a brain that you're in
charge of, a brain that you canco-opt and decide.
Robbie can get rid of whateverthat thing is if every time it
(23:44):
comes up, you say to yourselfI'm already done with that,
you're done.
I had something happen to meand this person in my life and I
just finally said you know what?
I'm not giving any more energyto that.
I can't.
It's taking up time and it'sthe same thought I had yesterday
, the day before, the day beforethat, probably all the way into
my teens, and I'm like I'm done.
(24:05):
You know how I got rid of it.
Now, when it comes up and itdoes.
When it comes up, I just say,let's say that person's Mary,
it's not.
So I love Mary and I neednothing from Mary.
I expect nothing from Mary, Ilove Mary and that's it, and
it's done.
It's done.
And when I'm clear, I reallyexpect nothing from someone who
(24:28):
I've expected a lot from in mylife, when I really genuinely,
truly have decided, decided,absolutely decided, not
partially, not play, decide, butno, I need nothing from this
person.
My need of whatever I need ismy issue.
I need nothing.
I love this person and I neednothing.
(24:49):
Can I tell you the lightnessthat that brings?
And you can do that withanything that you decide you no
longer want as part of theemotional vibration that is
creating your life.
That's the thing.
When we realize that thesethings are creating our lives,
we'll look around and decide,but you have to decide, and if
(25:12):
you want to claim it, you haveto name it.
So the last thing I want to askyou is what do you want to
manifest?
And I want you to look at thispicture, the left side of this
picture.
I think it's your left side,yeah, the left side of this
picture.
I don't think you want tomanifest that experience or that
existence Do you?
The right side of the picturelooks cool.
(25:36):
I think I like that one.
There is a plethora ofpossibility out there for you to
create A plethora.
Some of us are walking aroundcreating the left side, or we're
walking through the left sideof the picture, we're just
walking through.
Have you walked through yourlife at times where, all of a
(25:58):
sudden, your life seems dark?
There are dark things thathappen, things that happen in
the world, the Newtonian worldout there, which should have no
play in your quantum mind, butit does so things.
So we walk through it.
But as you walk through it, whoare you?
What are you manifesting?
No matter what, all it takes isa decision, but it takes an
(26:23):
absolute decision, which meansevery time it comes up, you've
already made that decision.
You don't have to decide again.
Did you ever do that?
You make a decision and then itcomes up again?
Did you ever do that you make adecision and then it comes up
again and you change your mind?
Well, have a mind that youcan't change.
Have a mind that you refuse tochange.
When it comes to this, I refuseto think thoughts that do not
(26:48):
create prosperity in my life.
I refuse to think thoughts thatdo not create creative
expression in my life andsuccess.
I refuse to think thoughtsabout this center that does not
keep me in an expansive mindset.
I don't care what any otherchurch is doing or how they're
all falling apart.
(27:08):
I don't care.
That's not what.
What I do, that's the definite,absolute decision you have to
make.
So the question is what do youwant to manifest?
Name it, claim it and don'tturn away from it, no matter
(27:29):
what namaste.
Okay, let's look at these lyrics, right at
the top.
Apparently, thank God, we'resort of seeing it Staring at the
blank page before you open up.
It's right in front of me too.
Open up that dirty window.
Let the sun illuminate thewords that you cannot find
reaching for something in thedistance, so close you can
(00:23):
almost taste it.
Release your inhibitions.
So just look at those lyricsfor a minute.
I love this song.
I mean clearly a song.
It's so simple.
The concept of this song iseveryone and it's not that
everybody has a book to write.
Everybody has within themthings that they want to do,
(00:44):
things that they want toaccomplish.
And when you look at thebeginning and the staring at the
blank page before you, that cansound daunting, but it's not.
Every one of us have a blankslate.
Every moment we take a deepbreath, and which is why I was
saying that, robbie, leaveeverything else behind us and
not stay focused on the past andnot stay focused on anything
(01:08):
behind you, but that there'sjust this blank page to do
whatever you decide to do, right?
So, staring at the blank pagebefore you open up that dirty
window.
You know what that dirty windowis?
Your mind, your mind, our mindshave become a little cloudy, a
little dirty, a little cruddy,with all of the crap from the
(01:31):
past and all of the beliefs thatwe've accumulated over all
these years, all of the emotions, all of the feelings, all of
the energy that has come with uson this journey.
But in any moment you can stopand say I start over.
Here's a blank page, and I lovethat.
Open up the dirty window.
(01:51):
Let the sun illuminate thewords that you cannot find.
You can't find them becauseyou're still staring at all that
clutter.
You can't find the newnessbecause you can't let go of the
oldness.
You can't find the new feeling,the new emotion because you're
still hung up on the oldemotions, the old feelings,
(02:11):
everything that has happened uptill now.
But what is the Sun?
The Sun?
Let the Sun illuminate thewords.
Let that inside of you that ispure, that is, that is pure
light, that is creativity.
Light that is creativity, thatis energy, starting a whole new
life.
In every moment you decide to dothat, reaching for something in
(02:32):
the distance, so close you canalmost taste it.
This is my favorite line Do youall have something that you can
almost taste it?
You're almost there.
Something that you are so clear, is yours Something that you
want, really want?
And here's the thing this isour month of manifestation,
(02:52):
right?
Manifest.
The theme is manifest becausethat's a verb to manifest
something, but you've got toknow what it is.
So what is that?
What do you want, right, what'sso close that you can almost
taste it.
Very often something is soclose.
Um, tony Roberts used to talk inin his program about the idea
(03:14):
that generally, just as you'reabout to cross the threshold of
exactly where you want to be andwhat you want to be doing,
something comes along anddistracts you away from it.
And it's usually right as it'sabout to happen when you have
given it everything and you'veworked your butt off and you are
so close, it's so close you canalmost taste it and then
(03:37):
something happens, you getdistracted and you turn away.
And the only reason you getdistracted and turn away is
because something inside of youwas not 100% all in in belief
and you believed that there wassomething that could distract
you, something that could takeyou away from that.
It's funny, hold on.
(03:59):
It's funny.
I'm saying that on the day ofthe Tony Awards, which are my
sports.
I'm saying that on the day ofthe Tony Awards, which are my
sports, and you know, I thinkfor years I always left the door
open that it could be possiblethat I would go to my grave
without winning a Tony Award.
I don't believe that anymore Atall At all.
(04:20):
You with me.
Good, you watch, because I willthank Global Truth center when
I win.
Somewhere in the list.
Kevin's already told me he hasto be first, so, yes, although
he's told me he's going to winmy before me, so we'll see about
that.
So the last line is release yourinhibitions, which is why I
(04:42):
made it so big and bold.
What are inhibitions?
What are inhibitions?
I'm?
Let me ask you this how manypeople here consider themselves
to be inhibited?
That you have inhibitions.
That you're.
I love that the hands are goingup slowly, that clearly you
have inhibitions.
Okay, so there you go.
(05:02):
Okay so.
And how many of you consideryourself to be free of
inhibitions?
Okay, so there you go.
Okay so, and how many of youconsider yourself to be free of
inhibitions?
You're just free spirits andjust run and do anything that
you think of and don't care whatanybody thinks about you?
Four people, okay, okay.
Well, I think Friday night Iproved that I have no
(05:22):
inhibitions whatsoever.
Yes, although I was supposed tostrip naked at the end of the
play.
Okay, well, I think Fridaynight I proved that I have no
inhibitions whatsoever yes,although I was supposed to strip
naked at the end of the play.
But I could not fathom doingthat on this stage.
And even when we did it at theNoHo Arts Center, which was
still my church I mean, ourchurch was on that stage too.
(05:44):
But we got.
I did it once.
Remember Connie it?
It ruined her.
She's still in therapy.
Um, connie was what the scarsare deep.
Connie was the costume designerand she was in the house.
When I finally, I said kevinsaid, if you're going to strip
naked when you talk about cancerand talk about how it took
everything away from you, thenyou got to do it.
And it's our last dressrehearsal before the first
(06:04):
preview.
You got to do it.
And I said's our last dressrehearsal before the first
preview.
You got to do it and I saidI've just been waiting until I
feel comfortable enough to dothat.
So we do the rehearsal and Istrip down naked and all I can
see.
I mean my husband's there, lukewas there, the sound designer
was there, that was it.
But all I could see was Conniesitting up in the balcony and I
(06:26):
was like no, no.
And then I went oh my God,tomorrow night it's going to be
a room full of Connie's.
The whole church is coming tosee this.
And I said to Kevin, this isnever happening again.
I will go to boxer shorts.
That's the best I think.
Boxers I wore right, they weretighty-whities.
Ok, that's the best I think.
Boxers I wore right, they weretighty-whities.
(06:47):
Okay, that's as far as I went.
But I had some inhibitions backthen.
I don't anymore, I really don't.
And we are going to remountthis show as a full show, but
not on this, but not in thesanctuary.
Enough has been said in thesanctuary, right, steve,
wouldn't you say so?
(07:09):
Inhibitions let's look at this.
Inhibitions, feelings that makeone self-conscious and unable
to act in a relaxed and naturalway.
Have you ever had that momentwhen you're just, you're not
yourself, you say stupid things,you behave differently, you're
walking differently, right?
You just feel someone has saidsomething about you and you no
(07:32):
longer can be natural in whatyou're doing because you're
thinking about it.
Actors go through that all thetime.
And then the second one avoluntary or involuntary
restraint on the directexpression of an instinct.
A voluntary or involuntaryrestraint on the direct
(07:52):
expression of an instinct.
Go back to the top.
An inhibition is a feeling.
It's a feeling.
Where do feelings come from?
Feelings come from your beliefs.
Feelings come from your alreadyestablished premise of life.
So when you believe somethingthat you're not talented, you're
not strong, you're notmasculine enough, you're not
(08:15):
whatever, whatever that beliefis, your feelings come from that
.
Now here's the thing aboutfeelings and manifestation.
Your feelings are the directmanifester in your life.
You manifest what you feel.
You manifest from your emotions.
The emotions are what causesthe electrical current.
(08:38):
It's the currency that you paywith for the manifestation that
you're looking for.
That you pay with for themanifestation that you're
looking for.
Many of us have inhibitions whenit comes to what we believe
about our lives.
We have inhibitions aroundfeeling prosperous.
We have inhibitions aroundfeeling successful.
(09:01):
We have inhibitions aboutfeeling that we deserve love or
we deserve to give love,whatever it is.
But these inhibitions, they'renot just stopping you from
getting up on stage and talking.
They're stopping you fromreceiving the life that you say
you want.
And in a month of manifest,it's time for us to get really
clear why we are manifesting andwhy perhaps we're not
(09:26):
manifesting.
And if you're not manifesting,what you want to manifest?
Joe Dispenza was doing thisworkshop and a woman got up and
she said I am doing themeditations, I'm visualizing,
I'm living in the future, whichhe talks about a lot, bringing
the emotions to play of what youwant.
(09:48):
It's all about emotions.
He says I'm doing all of thisand it's still not showing up.
And he just I loved his answer.
It was like so clear and hejust said well, you're just not
good enough.
That was it.
The whole room was like he saidno, it's true, you're not good
enough yet.
(10:09):
As soon as you stop pretendingand stop believing all the crap
you believe about yourself,you'll manifest.
It's that clear.
It's not about your words, it'snot about your visualizations.
What's it doing to you?
If it's not doing anything toyou, you're not doing anything
to it and it's not showing upbecause you're just not good
(10:32):
enough at it yet.
And you know what.
You're not good enough atletting your inhibitions go.
Just be done with them.
Be done with anything thatstops you in any way, shape or
form.
And you know what else.
Be done with them.
Be done with anything thatstops you in any way, shape or
form.
And you know what else?
Be done with anybody that stopsyou.
We all have them.
Everybody has people aroundthem the naysayers, the laughers
(10:55):
, the ones that are like, yeah,go ahead, try that, see if you
can make that happen.
You all know who I'm talkingabout in your own personal lives
.
You know.
For me it was my grandfatherwho, luckily, in Sissy Boo, I
really tear him down.
That's my favorite part of theshow when I get to play my
(11:15):
grandmother calling him anasshole Excuse me, brad, that's
one I mean.
The whole point of this is youknow who supports you.
You know who helps you designyour life, as opposed to helps
keep you back, because it makesthem feel safe, and we need to
(11:39):
be done with those.
So vibrations.
Albert Einstein said everythingin life is a vibration.
Everything in life is avibration.
Everything in life is avibration.
Catherine, you're sitting thereright now vibrating from
whatever, from whatever I'msaying, whatever you're thinking
about what I'm saying, whetheryou're daydreaming or moving
somewhere else, whatever, butyou're vibrating from that.
Every single person in thisroom is vibrating, luke.
(12:00):
You're vibrating from all ofyour life and what's going on in
it, right so that vibration isalive and well right now
vibrating.
Luke, you're vibrating from allof your life and what's going
on in it, right so thatvibration is alive and well
right now, right where you are.
What's going to change it?
What's going to turn thataround?
What's going to stop thevibration from vibrating the way
it's vibrating?
Because your vibration isnothing more than the outward
(12:23):
manifestation of your emotions.
That's what you vibrate from,your emotions.
So the question is where areyou emotionally?
And, and, more importantly,what?
What emotions are you stillholding on to from the past?
I have a lot of stuff in thepast that I have a lot of stuff
in the past that I have emotionabout.
(12:44):
Do you all?
So there are things in the past.
Something came up the other dayI don't usually talk about this
that much in my Broadway career,after West Side Story, I was
cast to star in a new musicalrevival opposite one of the
(13:05):
world's greatest ballerinas,makarova, and I was going to do
that and then, at the lastminute, the director changed his
mind and went in a totallydifferent direction and there
was a lot of emotion around that.
There was a lot of regret andanger.
There was a lot of failurearound that, especially because
(13:29):
then I had to watch the showopen on Broadway.
It was a hit.
He got a Tony nomination.
You know, a lot happened.
A lot happened that whole twoyears from the moment they
pulled the contract from me,which was only about a week
before rehearsal starting.
And the irony of the whole thingis that the director, who was
(13:55):
102 years old at the time,george Abbott, one of the
greatest Broadway directors ever, never wanted me.
The entire time I wasauditioning he told everyone he
said he's not really right forthe part.
But if I look at it in adifferent way, I still got
offered the role because I wasthe best person in New York City
(14:18):
at that time who could sing,dance, act and tap dance, which
needed to be done in that part.
But, as George Abbott would say, I was way too handsome.
That's a problem to have and Iwas too sure of myself.
I was too slick.
But he still cast me until hewent to see a show.
(14:41):
The understudy went on byaccident and the kid in the
chorus did it and he saw him andhe was this gangly, goofy guy
and the next morning he calledand said I want him and that was
it.
So all that emotion and Ibrought this all up this way to
show you all of that emotion Ican still bring up.
I can bring it up.
(15:02):
All of that emotion I can stillbring up.
I can bring it up, I can stillfeel, if I want to, I can feel
what that felt like.
I can feel like the also ran,the person that didn't get it.
I can bring all of that emotionup here.
And if I have that emotion now,how am I vibrating?
I'm vibrating from that emotion.
(15:24):
If I'm vibrating from thatemotion, I am manifesting my
life from that vibration thatcame from that emotion.
And we spend our whole livesdoing this, regurgitating
emotions and feelings and thepast, even if it was just last
week, and we live on that and wekeep living on that.
Joe Dispenza says this wecannot create a new future by
(15:48):
holding onto emotions of thepast.
I'd like you to bring up anemotion of the past right now
for yourself, something like Ijust did.
Just bring it up.
I want you to bring upsomething that happened to you
that you feel, and then I wantyou to feel it.
Just bring it up.
I want you to bring upsomething that happened to you,
that you feel, and then I wantyou to feel it Like.
Give yourself permission tofeel it.
(16:08):
Don't worry, I'm going to talkyou right out of it.
When you have it, when you'refeeling what that felt like,
raise your hand Okay.
(16:33):
Okay, know it or not, becauseyou could find it pretty quickly
and because you brought it up,it's still there.
It's still doing what it'smeant to do, which is to create
inside of you.
And imagine you just pulled outone.
How many do you think are inthere?
How much do you think is inthere in your subconscious mind
(16:55):
of all the things?
Even you, luke, how old are you?
20.
You've only had 21 years ofthis.
Try 70.
70 years of all of this.
It's all still there and it'sstill manifesting.
It's still creating.
So you ever really want to knowwhat's holding you back?
(17:18):
It's all of that leftunattended.
That's the work, that's themental work we all have in front
of us.
So the title of my talk todayis what Are you Going to Name it
?
Isn't that the cutest picture?
Every one of us has newbornsinside of us.
(17:38):
Each one of you here todaycould be born again.
Yesterday in Palm Springs.
We had an amazing service lastnight and someone came up to me
and talked to me about what theywant to create in their life
and, without missing a beat, Isaid something.
I said well, you know, youcould actually have that right
(17:59):
now.
Right now, you could startactually manifesting this by
accepting you already have this.
And he's the very next twowords.
What do you think?
The next two words were yeah,but, yeah, but.
And I turned to him and I saidwell, you should just name that
thing.
Yeah, but, because that's whatit is, that's what the universe
(18:21):
hears.
You want to know why you're notmanifesting.
You want to know why the auto,now auto atomic nervous system
is bringing from your brain toyour heart a sense of never
going to happen, because that'swhat you're sending it.
And then the heart's sendingback out what it wants and the
brain's still saying it nevergoing to happen.
And so there's this fight inthe middle of your awareness.
(18:42):
That's what we're studying inadvanced consciousness, because
it's all about the heart-mindconnection, the brain and the
heart connection.
And no, there is not a braininside the heart, but the brain
has waves and vibrations andenergies five times as powerful
as the brain.
So can the heart overcome thebrain?
(19:03):
Sure, because it's all aboutwhat you're feeling.
What are you feeling?
What are you allowing yourselfto feel?
And I'm going to suggest thatway too often we allow ourselves
to feel that stuff that's beingheld over from emotions that
are long past, due for throwingout, for being done with.
(19:24):
But it's your job to find outwhat those are.
So what are you going to nameit?
So this is my new quote If youcan't name it, you can't claim
it.
So if you're sitting here todayand you're like I don't know
what I want to manifest, well,then just say you don't want to
manifest.
Just say I don't want tomanifest anything.
(19:44):
Anybody want to say that?
No, but you might as well,because if you're sitting here
not naming it, you're not goingto claim it.
If I was in a lost and foundand you came up to me and said I
lost something, but I don'tknow what it is, what the hell
do you think I'm going to giveyou?
Well, let me give you thediamond we found.
That's probably what you lost.
No, not at all.
(20:05):
I'm going to say well, as soonas you can tell me what it is
and then describe it for me, andI want to see on your face that
you are emotionally connectedto whatever it is.
This thing is that you lost orthat you want, then I will give
it to you, because now you willbe emotionally equal to what
(20:25):
that is.
You say you want.
That's what this is all about.
That's what today is all about.
If you's what today is all about, if you can't name it, you
can't claim it.
And if you can't name itbecause you're afraid to name it
or because there's beliefsinside of you that's telling you
you can name it all you want,jim, but if you do, you're still
(20:47):
not getting it, because that'syour AEP in life.
Then there's the work.
That's the work that is infront of you.
If you want to manifestsomething more in your life, how
many people here a show ofhands want to manifest more in
their life?
That's everybody, right.
Is there anybody that doesn'twant to manifest anything more
(21:09):
in their life?
Because there are otherchurches around here that could
do that for you.
That's not what we're here todo, and I don't mean to negate
the work they do, but this isvery different what we do in
this room, what we do in NewThought churches.
It's about getting the powerand putting it back into your
(21:29):
lap so that you know how to doit Not just what you want, but
how to achieve what you want.
Yeah, I'm glad you all laughedat that picture.
Some of you are that pictureand all of us are that picture
at one time or another.
So Joseph Spencer says this samethoughts always lead to the
(21:52):
same choices, same choices leadto the same behavior and the
same behaviors lead to the sameexperiences and the same
experiences produce the sameemotions and these emotions
drive the very same thoughts andrinse and repeat Over and over
and over and over and we're inthis hamster wheel.
What did I say last week?
(22:14):
95% of what you thoughtyesterday, you're thinking today
.
Well, I am definitely somewherein the 50s at this point, which
is where my age is too.
Physically, I am definitelythinking new thoughts.
I am definitely using my mindin a new way.
My head has headphones on itmost of the day, listening to
(22:37):
podcasts, and that one I'm goingto listen to when I get home To
all the things that make senseto me now.
I don't need to revisit On yourToes from 1984.
That's never going to happen.
It's done, it's gone andbye-bye.
There's so many, so many thingsthat we could benefit from if we
(23:03):
understood them.
And the thing I want you towalk away with today I want you
to really understand that, ifyou can name what you want, you
have everything.
You need to claim it.
That's the truth, because youhave a heart that is beating and
(23:23):
thriving and expanding andsending all of this information
to you, and because you have abrain that you're in charge of,
not a brain that runs your life,but a brain that you're in
charge of.
Not a brain that runs your life, but a brain that you're in
charge of, a brain that you canco-opt and decide.
Robbie can get rid of whateverthat thing is if every time it
(23:44):
comes up, you say to yourselfI'm already done with that,
you're done.
I had something happen to meand this person in my life and I
just finally said you know what?
I'm not giving any more energyto that.
I can't.
It's taking up time and it'sthe same thought I had yesterday
, the day before, the day beforethat, probably all the way into
my teens, and I'm like I'm done.
(24:05):
You know how I got rid of it.
Now, when it comes up and itdoes.
When it comes up, I just say,let's say that person's Mary,
it's not.
So I love Mary and I neednothing from Mary.
I expect nothing from Mary, Ilove Mary and that's it, and
it's done.
It's done.
And when I'm clear, I reallyexpect nothing from someone who
(24:28):
I've expected a lot from in mylife, when I really genuinely,
truly have decided, decided,absolutely decided, not
partially, not play, decide, butno, I need nothing from this
person.
My need of whatever I need ismy issue.
I need nothing.
I love this person and I neednothing.
(24:49):
Can I tell you the lightnessthat that brings?
And you can do that withanything that you decide you no
longer want as part of theemotional vibration that is
creating your life.
That's the thing.
When we realize that thesethings are creating our lives,
we'll look around and decide,but you have to decide, and if
(25:12):
you want to claim it, you haveto name it.
So the last thing I want to askyou is what do you want to
manifest?
And I want you to look at thispicture, the left side of this
picture.
I think it's your left side,yeah, the left side of this
picture.
I don't think you want tomanifest that experience or that
existence Do you?
The right side of the picturelooks cool.
(25:36):
I think I like that one.
There is a plethora ofpossibility out there for you to
create A plethora.
Some of us are walking aroundcreating the left side, or we're
walking through the left sideof the picture, we're just
walking through.
Have you walked through yourlife at times where, all of a
(25:58):
sudden, your life seems dark?
There are dark things thathappen, things that happen in
the world, the Newtonian worldout there, which should have no
play in your quantum mind, butit does so things.
So we walk through it.
But as you walk through it, whoare you?
What are you manifesting?
No matter what, all it takes isa decision, but it takes an
(26:23):
absolute decision, which meansevery time it comes up, you've
already made that decision.
You don't have to decide again.
Did you ever do that?
You make a decision and then itcomes up again?
Did you ever do that you make adecision and then it comes up
again and you change your mind?
Well, have a mind that youcan't change.
Have a mind that you refuse tochange.
When it comes to this, I refuseto think thoughts that do not
(26:48):
create prosperity in my life.
I refuse to think thoughts thatdo not create creative
expression in my life andsuccess.
I refuse to think thoughtsabout this center that does not
keep me in an expansive mindset.
I don't care what any otherchurch is doing or how they're
all falling apart.
(27:08):
I don't care.
That's not what.
What I do, that's the definite,absolute decision you have to
make.
So the question is what do youwant to manifest?
Name it, claim it and don'tturn away from it, no matter
(27:29):
what namaste.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
