Bob Proctor and Philippe SHOCK Matthews

The Science of Getting Rich with Bob Proctor

THE BACKGROUND

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
Tell me a little bit about your background. What was your childhood like, who were your parents and do you have any brothers or sisters?

Bob Proctor:
“I am originally from Owen Sound, Ontario in Canada. My father left at a very early age to the Second World War. My mother raised three of us, my brother, sister and myself. I have a younger brother, Al who is a successful Insurance Agent in California with State Farm and has been there for years. My sister is a couple of years older and she and her husband have a very successful Safety Supply Business in Toronto. My mother raised the three of us and kept her mother, who looked after us when we were small while our mother went to work. Although my mother never had anything, she always left us with the idea that if we really wanted to do it, we could do it. She had a simple awareness. Although I messed up and screwed up and we never had anything for years, there was that seed planted in my mind that if you want to do it, you can do it.”

“After a couple of months of high school, I left to join the Navy. I came out and worked in factories, bars and I was a firefighter in Toronto when I read Think And Grow Rich (Napoleon Hill), my whole world began to change. I think what really changed is the man who gave me Think And Grow Rich and became a mentor to me. Now, we didn’t call them mentors or counselors back then – he was just a guy that cared. Then, I met Lloyd Conant and Earl Nightingale and eventually went to work for them and they became my mentors. Next, I met Dr. Harry Roder and Bill Gove. I have always been fortunate enough to have people who were the very best at what they did as my mentors and I always watched them and paid close attention to what they did and emulated them. Tony Robbins calls it mirroring. That’s what I did. It’s not copying them; you are emulating them.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
Who was Wallace D. Wattles? How did you hear about him?

Bob Proctor:
“Lloyd Conant introduced me to it way back in 1968, I was about 35. I was having dinner at his place and asked him how did he come to start the company, and he explained to me that he had this little green book that he read and after spending a weekend reading it, he decided to build a company. In 1968, this was a little outside the box because people would think you were losing it. I decided that it should be taught because I have people who have read the book and they go through the seminar and swear that they never read the book because we really dig in to it. It’s incredible!”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
It’s really the psychology and spirituality of wealthy, yes?

Bob Proctor:
“Absolutely. It’s the most complete thing on money. I think most people are suffering from money deprivation and that is the cause of their problems. It’s a consciousness problem, and it just blocks all of the other areas of creativity in their life. I found a person would be absolutely amazed how much free time they will have when they never have to think about money.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
Isn’t it amazing when you don’t have to complain about money, you don’t have anything to complain about?

Bob Proctor:
“If you want to change your life, you have to change your life.”

THE SCIENCE OF GETTING RICH

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
You say that you don’t have to have a high degree of intelligence to be rich. Explain.

Bob Proctor:
“The way we look at the intellect, our whole school and educational system is based on the development of what we call the intellect. For example, a person with a lot of formal learning, where they gather an enormous amount of information and we say that they are an intellect; which in fact, no one is an intellect. We have intellectual factors, but there are people who are functionally illiterate who can’t read or write that earn millions of dollars a year. So, you would say that they don’t have a high degree of intelligence; but they have a unique level of awareness.”

Awareness is really the key. That’s what I believe our educational system should focus on – to develop a greater awareness of how things function. Who we are, what we do and what we are capable of doing. But that is neglected. So, you have people going around who appear to be absolutely brilliant, but they are not very aware. Subsequently, we have to become aware of who we are and what we are; then we’ll start to see with an inner eye and will be able to have a true reflection of what’s going on inside. The sad fact is, is that what’s going on inside with most people is a reflection of what’s going on outside; so they keep getting the same results over and over again. They are being seduced by outside conditions or circumstances.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
Aside from repeating the same mistakes over and over again in one’s life because of their internal beliefs, isn’t there a decision that must be made that, ‘This is the day I am going to make a permanent change in my life?’

Bob Proctor:
“There is no question about that. The first thing a person has to do is make the decision that they are going to do it – how they are going to do is irrelevant. They have to make a decision that they are going to do it and because most people don’t see how they are going to do it, they never decided to do it. The formula is the decision first – the information comes second. We are told to seek ‘ye first the kingdom of expansion’, and all these things will be given to whatever things are necessary for the manifestation of the image. We have to understand that we have to make the decision. For example, if I was going to make a decision to learn how to use Photoshop to build a powerful PowerPoint presentation; then I would find someone who has mastered Photoshop and I would get them to teach me how to do it, and I would do what they told me. I would make particularly good notes of what they said; and if I found that it wasn’t working right, I would go back to them and say there is something I don’t understand; could I have a couple more lessons.’”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
So, wealth is not a solo act; you need others to help you get there?

Bob Proctor:
“You need other people. Martin Rutt says, ‘You have to do it by yourself, and you can’t do it alone.’ That’s a puzzle and when the student solves the puzzle, they have created a higher degree of awareness. I have used that so often because it’s so perfect. Even though you need other people, you still have to do it yourself.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
What is the Law of Perpetual Transmutation, and how does it relate to wealth?

Bob Proctor:
“It relates to everything in the universe. I woke up this morning; it was a beautiful, bright, shining day. The sun was beaming through the windows. Then I noticed that it was starting to get dark and all of a sudden, it was snowing like blazes here. Then it stopped snowing and started to get bright again. The snow was on the ground and about one half hour later, it was gone. Well, the energy was moving into form. The form was snow; then it went back to where it came from, so energy is forever moving into form. Energy flows to and through us and the images we form in our mind dictate the physical form that the energy is going to eventually turn into and it moves with and through us. The energy moves us into a new vibration. The vibration sets up new action and sets up an attraction, so it’s the action and attraction that brings all of the energy together and manifests the energy into form. It’s the first law of the universe.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
Tell me about the Law of Cause and Effect and how it relates to wealth.

Bob Proctor:
“Well, Emerson says the Law of Cause and Effect is the ‘Law of Laws.’ You are going to receive what you put out. The universe sends back to you what you send to it. So, your level of expectation has a lot to do with it and determines what you send out. If you see wealth as a reward, which is really; what it is for service rendered it has nothing to do with work. I can be providing a service right now sharing this information with you and although you are not going to turn around and give me dollars in place of this, the universe is going to send me back money and it will come in many different forms. I can’t determine how it’s going to come, but the energy that I am sharing with you right now is a service that you are then going to take and share with your people. Together, we have banded our energies together and we are providing a service to the people that receive your Ezine. They are going to be doing business with us. You just have to think about giving. We’ve got to learn how to become good Go-Givers.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
So, in becoming a good ‘Go-Giver’, one must become a good thither, yes?

Bob Proctor:
“The novice that first gets involved with tithing and I think it’s a stage we all go through, is seeking a better way of life. Thus, we get into books, cassettes and seminars and we get this idea of tithing and don’t know if it really works. We try it and send some money and say ‘Well, nothing came back.’ We have to understand that if you are giving to get that’s trading, and a violation of the law. With tithing, we should freely give and let go of completely; part of our time, part of our knowledge, and part of our money. We should give from the source that we receive good from. For instance, I went into Michael Beckwith’s church; he invited me there to speak and I went with the idea of speaking because he invited me to speak. I was so richly rewarded just because of my presence there. It was so good that I couldn’t even describe it. Sometimes, you are going to do something for someone and you don’t realize that you will get it back immediately. You don’t have to give to a particular church on the corner in your town; it could be any source where you receive spiritual strength. We should be forever looking for an opportunity to give because that’s what life is all about. If we would just fall in love with that idea, regardless of what anybody else thinks, stay true to that, then we are going to receive because that’s the law and how cause and effect works.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
You say on The Science of Getting Rich that you can get rich going with the tide rather going against it. Explain.

Bob Proctor:
“If it’s a struggle to earn money, you are going against the tide. There should be no struggle. If we get into the divine current of life; that’s where the law of cause and effect comes in, that’s where tithing comes in; it has to be a free-flow. There is a difference between freely giving and taken. If people are taking advantage of you and some will, you are setting up a situation that is giving them an opportunity to violate the law. You shouldn’t permit yourself to be taken, and it’s a fine line, which is where the awareness comes in, but you should be forever looking for opportunities to give of your time, knowledge and money. I remember when I first started studying this, I was really working hard. I was in the Office Building Maintenance Business, and I literally passed out on the street. I thought the answer was work harder, get another office to clean; and of course, that wasn’t the answer at all.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
You say in nature, the supply of money, wealth or riches can never run short. What does that really mean?

Bob Proctor:
“Empty plates don’t feed hungry people. We think that there is a lack of money, but poor people can’t help people. Wealthy people help people. The more you earn, the more you can help people. Money is only used for two things; to be comfortable and to extend your service beyond your own presence. People, who think there is a lack of supply, have separated the non-physical world from the physical world. They say there is a line of demarcation, where one starts and the other stops. The non-physical world and physical world are all connected. This separate thinking has brought about all of the racial problems and the wars, religious problems, but we’re all connected and an expression of the same thing. Tell me where water stops becoming water and becomes steam. The steam and the water are all hooked together on various frequencies and each frequency is hooked up to the one above and the one below. You cannot separate the non-physical world from the physical world. I believe when we really understand that, we start to get along with one another like we are brothers, sisters and connected and we start to see that there is an infinite source of supply. There is no lack to supply. We have the creative faculty or ability to tap in to the non-physical world, build images and cause those images to move into form. Thus, we are creative beings.”

Philippe SHOCK Matthews:
You also say that you must think the truth regardless of appearances. Why?

Bob Proctor:
“You have to understand the truth is not always in the appearance of things. You have to grasp the concept that all things begin in thought. That is, thought truly is the preamble to everything. So, until you grasp that, you are going to let your present conditions or circumstances control your thinking; and it’s going to be repeat cycles of the same thing happening over and over again. My God, Philippe, you and I were caught up in that for years. I lived that way for so long; and you did too; as did most people. I wasn’t raised in a family where everyone understood this and there was plenty around. There was lack and limitation all around and we were blaming conditions, circumstances, other people, the government and everybody else for our situation. It wasn’t until somebody helped me to understand that if I wanted to change my life, I had to change my life.”

Recently known as the star of the Secret, Bob Proctor is an author, lecturer, counselor, business consultant, entrepreneur, and teacher of positive thinking, self-motivation and maximizing human potential through the Law of Attraction. In that endeavor, he follows in the footsteps of such motivational giants as Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale and Wallace D. Wattles. But Proctor carries the message of these great teachers a step higher and explains in terms understood by tots and tycoons alike how a person goes about recognizing their potential and how to apply this effort in setting and achieving life goals.

My first question to this wealth-building guru came from a question that was posed to me some years ago that I could not answer until this interview.  The question was why do some people believe it’s a sin to be rich and holy to be broke?  Bob Proctor quickly responded with, “I think we’re programmed.  I think it’s for a lot of reasons that we believe a lot of other nonsense.  It’s genetic and environmental programming. People don’t think and live with what they are programmed to believe.  Moreover, there’s so many poor people around that it would seem to make sense – they can’t all be bad people.  I think we’re conditioned genetically.  It’s not an accident that you look exactly like your uncle Harry.  The genetic conditioning is very strong and on top of that you have environmental conditioning.  Unfortunately, we’re programmed to take everything and reverse it.  It’s like we live from the physical to the spiritual when we should be going from the spiritual to the physical.  We live through our senses.  If you go by your senses, you’re going by the appearance of things and the truth is very rarely in the appearance of things.”

Bob’s book, You Were Born Rich is not just a title but an affirmation.  What a concept to believe and know we are all born rich.  “We’ve got deep reservoirs of talent and abilities within us,” Bob explained.  “There’s so much power locked up in us and it’s never used.  We’re rich resources – everyone is, most people are just a little short of money but riches…the most erudite scientist alive won’t guess at what you and I are capable of doing.”  In You Were Born Rich, there’s a chapter that asked the question, How Much Is Enough?  When I posed that question to Bob, he launched with a belly laugh and replied, “Well it depends on what you’re doing. To accumulate money just for the sake of accumulating money is a fool’s game and you will usually end up pretty unhappy, probably a sick person. Money is an instrument and it’s used for two things.  One is to make you comfortable and the other is to extend the service that you offer beyond your own presence.  You’ll hear people say, I really don’t want money, I just want to do good, well Wattles [Wallace D. Wattles] pointed out many years ago if that’s the case you should get rich first because the good you can do without the money is limited to your own presence.  So money is an instrument that enables you to extend what you’re doing far beyond where you are.”

He believes that money is a servant and we shouldn’t serve money.  “It is a wonderful servant but makes an absolutely terrible master.  Money will do whatever you tell it to do.  It’s greatly misunderstood.  Almost everything we’ve been taught about money is false.  Money has nothing to do with race, religion, gender, geography, it has nothing to do with formal education, it has nothing to do with your background, and it has nothing to do with your intelligence.  There are some very intelligent people who are broke and there are people who are not very bright at all who are multi-millionaires!  Money is based on one thing…decision.  You decide you’re going to have it or you decide that you’re not.“  Bob’s wisdom of wealth led one of the attendees at his wealth building seminars to offer: “Bob Proctor… brings all the great wisdom of Napoleon Hill, Wallace Wattles and others into a coherent whole that anyone can take home and apply…”

The Book That Changed Bob’s Life

Bob Proctor and Philippe SHOCK Matthews

Perhaps the reason Bob Proctor is so insightful into the factors that limit peoples’ success is rooted in the fact that he lived an aimless, purposeless existence for the first 26 years of his own life. Born in a little town in northern Ontario, Canada with the low self-esteem that often befalls a family’s middle child, he performed poorly in school, dropped out and did a hitch in the navy. Afterward he drifted from one dead-end job to another until a friend recognized potential in Bob that he had no awareness of himself. The friend introduced Bob to the concept of self-development through Napoleon Hill’s classic Think and Grow Rich. With the spark generated by Hill’s words, Proctor found the initiative to start an office cleaning business, which he grew to international scope in his first year of operation. From that experience – after seeing what he had been able to accomplish with just a rudimentary knowledge of personal motivation and goal setting – he hungered for more information. His quest took him to the Nightingale-Conant organization where he exhausted every opportunity to study under his mentor, Earl Nightingale. His intense study earned him an invitation to join the organization where, once on board, he rose swiftly through the ranks. Moreover, while the Nightingale-Conant organization assumed the forefront in wide-scale distribution of personal development programs, Bob felt the need to take his ideas and methods directly to the individual, to the one-on-one level, which had proved so successful for him.

In the mid 1970’s, Bob established his own seminar company and secured a contract to work with a few hundred agents of Prudential Life Insurance Co. of America in Chicago. During his first seminar Bob made the suggestion that any agent present could write $5 million in business that year if the agent made a decision to do so. The fact that the seminar took place in July with the year half over and that no agent in that region had ever written so much business in the 100-year history of the company made Bob’s suggestion appear to be outrageous. However, when the performance level of the entire division increased substantially with more than one agent actually accomplishing the deed, Bob’s reputation as a change agent was established. Over the ensuing years, Bob has shared his special message and expertise with hundreds of business entities worldwide and, through a program of live seminars, with thousands of people of all ages in all walks of life.

Meanwhile, in addition to his international best-seller You Were Born Rich, he found time to author other works as well, including Mission in Commission, The Winner’s Image, The Goal Achiever, The Success Series, The Success Puzzle, The Recruiting Puzzle, and Being Your Very Best. The experience of hearing and seeing Bob Proctor lecture is a memorable one, packed with the information, inspiration and wisdom to transform the lives of everyone in his audience. Unlike many programs, which convince you, that you can do anything you set out to do, Bob Proctor’s programs complete the creative cycle by explaining what you must do, why you must do it and, more importantly, how you must do it.

You Were Born Rich

His extraordinary teaching ability has won Bob acclaim around the globe and has carried the Canadian-born motivator to the far reaches of the earth. He is as well known in Australia and Malaysia as he is in Alberta and Mississippi. Testimony to his ability to reach people and teach them how to become successful is his work in the insurance industry. In this bastion of self-starters and personal motivation – where competition, denial and rejection are awesome negative forces – Bob regularly conducts corporate sponsored seminars here and abroad for some of the world’s largest insurance companies. To his credit, he has generated a long list of phenomenal individual success stories.

One of Bob’s most powerful principles in his book, You Were Born Rich is the principle of letting go and letting God.  He explains, “If we take it and relate it to goals, where people get hung up on goals is that they’re trying to figure out how it’s going to happen before they set the goal and anyone who has every accomplished anything of any consequence has never known how it’s going to happen.  I always point out that how is God’s job and what is your is your job.  You decide what you want done, and God does the work with and through you.  Clarence Smith is a man who I haven’t seen for years but he’s a brilliant guy who I asked what was faith to him and he said, ‘faith is the ability to see the invisible, to believe in the incredible and that will permit you to receive what the masses call impossible.’  The ability to see the invisible…there’s a power flowing into your consciousness and you have creative faculties in your consciousness that enables you to build an image of anything you want – anything…no limits! No one can alter it, no one can shorten it, and no one can change it.  You have the ability to picture anything you want – to see the invisible – you see it before its moved into form.  To believe in the incredible…its incredible to believe that there’s a power that’s resident in every cell of your being and when you take that image and mentally let it move into the subjective form of your mind, that part of you will instantly and automatically alter the vibratory rate of your body, change your behavior and change what you attract into your world.  It will manifest the image you hold in physical form. It’s an absolute law!”

If it’s so simple then why don’t we take action and make it happen Bob?  “Well, we don’t think.  We don’t see it because we’re trained to see just through our eyes.  I remember spending five years working with Earl Nightingale many years ago and he said, ‘if more people said what they were thinking they would be speechless.’  When you hear that it sounds pretty funny, but if you think about it, it’s true.  Most people mistake mental activity with thinking but it’s not.  They’re going to old movies and if you stand back objectively and observe peoples behavior, it’s obvious that they’re not thinking or they never would do what they are doing.  On the other hand, if you listen to their conversation, it’s obvious that they are not thinking or they would never say what they’re saying.  I think it was the late and great doctor Ken McFarland that said, ‘two percent of the people think.  Three percent think they think and ninety five percent would rather die than think.’  Thinking is the highest function we’re capable of and if you want to do something and you think about how you can, the way will be shown.”

Bob sees himself as an educator with a gift to reveal to others the secrets that turned his life around and the incredible power and potential they hold within themselves. An unabashed entrepreneur, his philosophies are set forth in his international best seller You Were Born Rich, where it encourages people to prepare for their own success by revising their attitudes toward wealth. Paraphrasing, he says it’s good to be wealthy and that money is good as long as the individual rules the money and not the other way around. Further, he explains how to employ self-imagery, incorporate, and develop each individual’s spiritual side in the quest for wealth and success. Bob’s deeply held beliefs and common sense approach to teaching creates a new set of mental reflexes to guide people to properly set goals and thereby improve their lives. “Many of our decisions are made purely on the mental reflexes we’ve built up through similar decisions made hundreds of times over the years. In fact, we spend a great deal of our lives on autopilot,” he says. Bob does his best to get people off autopilot and into success.

Helping employees grow, improve and adapt to change, Proctor’s wide-ranging work with business and industries around the world extends far beyond the pep rally syndrome. Instead, it encompasses working with business entities to develop strategies that will assist employees at all levels to grow, improve, and adapt to the ever-changing nature of all commercial enterprises in today’s business atmosphere.

Bob believes that you must have vision in order to create wealth but there are many ways to envision something, especially wealth.  “It has to be service oriented because wealth is a reward received for service rendered,” Bob explains, “You have to have an image of doing something that’s extraordinary and I think everyone wants to.  I believe we’re spiritual beings and the essence of the human is spirit and spirit is always for fuller expansion and expression.  That means there’s something within you that wants to express itself in a greater way and that will keep you wanting more than what you got, wanting to do more – jump higher, run faster, make it bigger… It’s not to have it or to do it, it’s to create the awareness that you can.  You have to have a vision of what you want.  Most people compromise, they’re not going after what they want at all, they’re going after what they think they can do.  Going after what you think you can do is never going to inspire you so you’ll probably quit.  We should ask ourselves ‘what do I want?’ and throw away all of the limits.  It doesn’t matter what it cost, what help you’re going to need or what’s required – just what do you want? When you decide on what you want and you take that in your mind, you will attract everything that is required for the manifestation of that image.”

So, there’s a difference between want and need?  “I think a person should look after their needs because if they don’t take care of their needs, they’re going to have a very difficult time focusing on their wants.  However, taking care of our needs is such a puny, little thing to do – anybody can take care of their needs.  If a person is not thinking, they may have difficulty.  There was a time when I didn’t think and I had a difficult time taking care of my needs but as soon as I began to think, I never had a difficult time taking care of my needs and I’ve always gotten what I wanted.”

Expect An Abundance

On page 92 of You Were Born Rich, Bob says, “…before any of us can even begin to overcome the poverty which surrounds us in our external world, we must first conquer the impoverishment that is buried deep within ourselves.”  Bob explained further in our interview, “That goes back to the conditioning again and the conditioning controls the vibration you’re in.  The vibration dictates what you will attract.  When we start to understand our relationship with Spirit or with God and how our mind functions then it’s easy to start to expect great things to happen because you know what the creative process is.  When you really understand the creative process, expectation is a natural thing.  Expectation is a mindset that controls the vibration you’re in and that controls what you attract into your life.”  So, expectation is then faith in action?  “No, I don’t think so.  I think expectation is more of an intellectual thing and faith is more of a subjective thing.  Faith comes from understanding.  Faith is an emotional thing – it has more to do with the subjective mind.  Expectation without faith is useless – it’s wishing.  It’s the understanding that gives us the faith.  With knowledge, you wouldn’t need any faith.  This is really paradoxical because the more knowledge you have the more faith you have and the more knowledge you have the less faith you need.  It’s a real paradox.”

If someone is born into poverty and is never exposed to the possibilities of wealth and freedom, how do you convince these people that they are not living their true potential?  “The odds of them making it are pretty slim, however, I do believe a person born into dire circumstances and there are certainly a number of them, I think spirit is resident there and it’s omni-present.  I think spirit is pushing at their consciousness to do this.  If they let the old paradigm control them they won’t do it but every now and then you’ll see a person come out of the ghetto or out of a very bad situation and they follow that impulse from inside and they step out and things start to happen and they do it.  I also believe that you and I have a responsibility to try and reach out and wake those people up.  That’s what I spend my life doing.”

Further Reading

Bob Proctor and Philippe SHOCK Matthews

Since the age of 10, I have been studying metaphysical principles, universal laws and truth after being introduced to the teachings of the Reverend Doctor Johnnie Colemon. I am a staunch believer in and proponent of the idea that prosperity is our birthright. On a below-freezing day in February 2001, I was flown to Toronto by Bob Proctor, for three days to facilitate a keynote for his 3% Club Summit, and that experience further engrained my belief.

It was there that I opened my mind to the possibility of producing Shock Wealth™ because I was introduced to a mindset. Webster defines a mindset as 1) a mental attitude or inclination or 2) a fixed state of mind.

I define a mindset as something that shifts your current way of thinking; a paradigm; a new perception. When I was exposed to Bob Proctor for those three days, it altered my state of mind and permanently changed my mindset. By the time I left Toronto, I was on a newly empowered, wealth building journey, a journey that would eventually lead me to the creation of The Shock Wealth System™.

Ponder these shocking thoughts…

1. You are already rich. You just forgot and nobody told you!

Financial struggle and poverty are addictions. According to Karen McCall, founder of the Financial Recovery Institute, Under-earning is a financial disorder, a money-related emotional problem right up there with compulsive spending and chronic debiting.

2. Whatever you are being paid right now…it’s not enough!

WOW!

Whatever you are being paid or earning right now is not enough. There is always more, and you should not settle for less or allow someone to dictate how much you are worth. This is not from a standpoint of greed but simply from the law of conservation—there is always another level in evolution.

3. Money does grow on trees!

Who makes the trees? God, Allah, Nature makes the trees.

Does your job make the money?

Do you make the money?

Does the government make the money?

No, God makes the money!

So in order to have more money, we don’t need to know how to make more money because the money is already made. What we need to understand is the nature of money and how to attract into our lives what already exists.

Once we understand the nature of money, we will then understand how to make it, have it, attract more of it and keep it!

Dr. Deepak Chopra says we are cells in a unified field of energy and that everything is energy in expression, including our thoughts and words. In an interview that appeared in the online magazine, Empowermag.com, he told me this: There’s more space and information in one cubic centimeter of space in front of you than the entire material universe combined.

Dr. Chopra believes that wealth, money and financial freedom are built from understanding the natural, scientific laws of the universe. Money is merely energy in another form of expression. Money is made from trees, trees are made from nature, and nature is pure energy. Dr. Chopra further explained, If you go deep within your own awareness, you’ll discover at the heart of your being there is an intelligence that is constantly orchestrating the activity of your mind and body. When you get in touch with this intelligence you recognize it as the inner intelligence within you, but it also represents and mirrors the wisdom of the universe. In other words, when you get in touch with the deepest core of your being, you get in touch with a universal intelligence that is the field of pure potentiality where everything comes from including trees, stars, galaxies, rainforests, bodies and thoughts. You recognize that the nature of this intelligence is that it’s infinitely abundant, lavish, extravagant, and full of potential for all that was, is and will be. By contacting this intelligence and getting in touch with it you can fulfill all of your desires whether they are material desires, emotional, psychological or ultimately spiritual desires.

Wealth building guru, Robert G Allen says, The source of all wealth is God. God knows where the gold is. You can’t create wealth by yourself without having tapped into the source that knows what stocks are going up tomorrow, which pieces of real estate are going to be more valuable, which businesses have the best chance of success – you need to be tapped in.”

“Heaven and Earth were born at the same time I was, and the ten thousand things are one with me.”

4. Creation has already been created

You cannot create anything new. You cannot out-create the Creator. The smartest scientist cannot create an original element like fire, wind, metal, wood. They can only change its form and harness its energy to co-create that which already exists so that it can better serve mankind based upon our current level of consciousness.

That means you have to decide what you want to co-create and what you feel deserving of having. Once you realize that you are a co-creator with your Creator, you can then extract from the universe that which has already been created; it is waiting for the arrival of your mindset or consciousness so that it can begin to take form.

This is why they say you must have faith in the unseen. Yet there is no unseen. It’s already here! You just haven’t seen the unseen at your current level of thinking or consciousness. When you begin to realize that you can co-create whatever level of wealth you desire because it has already been created, you begin to feel a part of the universe and not separate from the universe. You no longer feel disconnected from your Self¾your God-Self. You and your Creator are one. You become one with the Universe and realize that DNA is what you are, but deity is who you are!
