Transcript (machine generated): About achieving what you would love to create in life or manifest the thing that's inside your brain and your heart and your mind, that you want to bring into the world, but it's manifesting and it's a 13 step formula that I have been utilizing for 48 plus years now. So if you have a pencil and paper or something to write with or maybe something to type with on your iPhone, or whatever, could be iPad, you may want to take some notes. I mean, you can certainly watch this, but I think writing them down is to your advantage.

It's a formula that I developed. Now, when I was 17 years old, I met a gentleman named Paul C Bragg. He's the one that in one night inspired me to do what I'm doing. I was learned challenged at the time. And I, for the first time in my life, after listening to him speak, I thought maybe I could overcome my learning problems and someday become intelligent. At that time, you know, it was like a dream. Now it's a reality. Although some people may question my intelligence at times, depending on what I'm doing. But, he's the one that taught me, not the steps in a formula, but the principles that I put into a formula over time. So I wrote down all the things I was learning from him, and I formulated it into this formula step-by-step formula. So I'm going go through it and elaborate on it and please consider this, it's very, very useful.

The first step in the formula is called purpose. Purpose or mission. Every human being has a set of priorities, a set of values, things that are most important down to least important in their life. And whatever's highest on that list of importance, whatever is the most important value, the most highest priority action or objective that they have, this is what we're going to call the purpose. There was a term in the time of Aristotle called telos, and telos meant the end in mind. This is the ultimate end that an individual pursues. In my case, it's teaching. That's what I love doing. That's what I spontaneously do. That's what's highest on my value. So whatever's highest on your values, your list of values, is the purpose. You're teleological purpose is an expression of what you value most, it's the thing that you feel called to do.

The thing that you feel spontaneously inspired to contribute. This is where you're going to excel the most. This is where you're going to have that highest achievements. This is where you're going to have the greatest clearest intentions. This is the area that activates the prefrontal cortex and the diencephalon into helping you achieve. This is the key of mastery actually. So that's why I have on my website, complimentary and private, a Value Determination process that I hope that you, if you haven't done, please go do it. Go on dr.demartini.com and hit Value Determination. It's private. It's completely complimentary. Just take the time to go through it and do it again a week later, a month later, and a quarter, and every quarter, just do it. By doing it, this exercise, it's 13 questions. It'll help you identify what your life demonstrates is most important to you.

So often people have this idea that this is important and this is important, and they have fantasies about what they want to do in life. But I'm only interested in the questioning of what is truly important and what is your life demonstrate. My life demonstrates researching and teaching. I do it every single day of my life. Seven days a week. And nobody has to remind me to do it. When you find the thing that you are spontaneously inspired to do, that you don't need any outside motivation to get you to do, that is the area you're going to excel at most. That is the area that's most fulfilling, most meaningful. So first of the formula is identifying what is truly the thing that you feel is your purpose, your contribution, your mission of contribution in the world. Now that may be raising a beautiful family. Rose Kennedy from the Kennedy family,

her mission statement was; "I dedicate my life to raising a family of world leaders". It may be some social cause, it may be some business, it may be building wealth, it may be keeping fit, it may be a spiritual quest, whatever that means to you, it could be physical fitness. I'm not going to judge what that is. What matters is what's truly meaningful and inspiring and fulfilling to you. You know, in the movie, The Secret, there was a principle called the law of attraction. And when you are concentrating your focus on the thing that's most important, you maximize what has been called the law of attraction. You synchronize opportunities and there's physiological and brain mechanisms on how that works. You're literally in the thalamus, the pulmonary nuclei in the thalamus, it filters information out according to what you value most and allows you to synchronously observe, take action, decisions quickly, et cetera, in that area. You're going to excel most

if you're pursuing what's truly most important to you. I tell people if you don't fill your day with high priority actions that inspire you, your day's going to fill up with low priority distractions that don't. So it's very crucial to identify what's really, really, really most important to you. What your life really demonstrates, not what you think it 'should be', 'ought to be', 'supposed to be', 'got to be', 'have to be', 'must', what it used to be, what you hope it will be, but what it really is. So please take the time to go to the website. Just do that exercise. It's free. Complimentary. Do it again. Do it again until you have a tear of gratitude and you go, 'Bam. That's what I'm up to. That's what I'm really committed to. That's what my life's demonstrating.' Cause if you need motivation from the outside to do what you say is important to you,

that's not what's important to you. You don't have to have motivation to do what is really, really, really important to you. You don't need motivation. I'm not a motivational speaker. I'm not here to motivate you with persuasions and rhetoric and things. I'm interested in helping you find what is truly most deeply meaningful to you, so you can structure your life around that. That's the secret behind The Secret left out of The Secret. Now, once you identify what that is, and you, maybe you write out it clearly and concisely what it is you really committed to, what is it that's so deeply meaningful that you would pursue it. Just know that the moment you do, you will not be able to avoid thinking about it. Your innermost dominant thought becomes your outermost tangible reality. Because what you think about you tend to keep in your awareness, you tend to take actions on, you tend to make decisions more efficiently around.

So what's interesting is our dominant thought is an expression of what we value most. I basically, my highest value is again, researching and teaching, teaching particularly. I think about it every night, every morning, when I get up out of bed, I'm thinking about who I'm getting to teach today, what am I going to teach, and what was the research that I'm doing. This morning I was already I watched over an hour or something long video on oncology and treatments of oncology because I'm working on a project with somebody on that. And so whatever it is that is most important to you, you will automatically dominate your thought on it. And again, you'll filter your reality. If your highest value is raising beautiful children, you walk in a mall, you will spot children's items. If your highest value is business, you walk in that same mall, you will not see children's items, you'll see business items. If your highest value is fitness,

you'll go right to the Nike store or something. You will notice and filter your reality according to what you value most, and you'll automatically think about it. So your purpose, which is an expression of what your highest value is, your telos, you will automatically determine what you think about. And if those are congruent and you know what that highest value is, and you dominate your thought on it, you're increasing the probability of having a momentum building achievement path. Now what's interesting is, whenever you're living in your highest value and being congruent with that, the blood glucose and oxygen goes into the forebrain. It leads to eustress, not distress. Eustress is wellness promoting. So the second you're living according to your highest value, and you're dominating your thought on that, you will automatically activate an area in the medial prefrontal cortex that goes right into the V5 V6 area of the occipital cortex and give you associations for visual images to be able to see what you're striving for.

And there's been an old proverb that's biblical that says, those with a vision flourish, those without a vision perish. Well what's happens is if you set a goal that is aligned with your highest values that you dominate your thought on it, you will automatically see it in your mind's eye. The executive function of the medial prefrontal cortex, the executive center is involved in inspired vision and actually seeing and strategically planning how to get through and navigate through any obstacle and get that vision. And if you can see the vision, that's crucial. In my office, in my beautiful office in Houston, Texas in Williams Tower, is a vision of what I perceived when I was 17 years old the night I met Paul Bragg. And Andrew Tischler out of Melbourne Australia painted that, did a magnificent job at painting it, it's inspiring to look at, of how I wanted to reach the world in there with my outreach to teach. But a person who can see it in their minds eye can manifest it in their reality.

So what happens is when you have a purpose and you dominate your thought on it, and you can see it in your mind's eye and you can visualize it, and the one who can focus on every finer detail is the one that manifests it. That means that, because any detail you don't see in the vision is usually an obstacle you run into your game in life, but the second you can see it clearly in your minds eye, Phelps, 28 medals, gold medals and different medals in swimming, could see the details in his mind to win those championships and those Olympic medals. He could see it in his mind's eye. He ran, rehearsed it in his mind's eye. A guy named Joe Guarnera that I met when I was 23 years old at the Texas chiropractic college many years ago, who was an amazing runner ,who used to run in his mind more than actually on the pavement.

And he would actually, and he would win marathons and it was amazing this guy, but he could actually see it in his mind's eye and therefore outwit and outperform some of the people that are out there working, but they couldn't see it in their mind. So you will automatically see it. So if you take the time to create a visual image of what you want, not just a vision board, but a vision mind, you increase the probability of achieving things. So the thing is, is the congruency. I can't emphasize how important it is to find out what you value most. That's why I want you to go online and do that Value Determination, because if you find what's truly most important that you spontaneously are inspired to do, and you dominate your thought on it, you will see it. I've seen it in the Breakthrough Experience program that I've taught from 32 years now.

I've seen it when people finally get that and they get really clear on it, they get teary-eyed and they look back and they see exactly what they want. And they see it in their mind's eye. And wow, the moment they do that, it's kind of like an impossible for you not to fulfill it. It's destined. It just feels like a feeling of destiny. And I've been asking people in the Breakthrough Experience for three decades now, more, on when they access that you can see it in their face, you can see it in their eyes and it's almost like it's destined, there's no turning back, it's a relentless pursuit all of a sudden. And when you actually have that clarity, you can articulate it, which is number four, which is to be able to articulate, like an affirmation. The word affirmation, in kind of the new age movement is positive statements.

But the true definition of affirmation means to make firm in one's mind, to make firm in one's mind. The only thing that's going to be firm in your mind is something you're truly committed to, the thing that absolutely wakes up the frontal cortex, the executive center, and you can see it in your mind's eye. That's what you're certain about. Certainty does not come from the lower amygdala area. It does not come from uncertain, does not come from lower values. You can never have a certainty in an area of lower values. But you can have certainty in the direction of what's truly meaningful to you. So the way you know you can see clearly in your mind's eyes, you can articulate in detail what you're going to create. And any detail you can't articulate is something that's unclear in the mind. So a sign you have a clear vision and that you're dominating your thought on it

and it's clearly a mission for you, is that you can articulate it fluently. And when you can articulate it, somebody can see it. When I was speaking in Melbourne Australia, a number of years back, almost a decade now, I had about 1200 people in an audience and I shared a story about the night I met Paul Bragg. And it was an inspiring thing and I teared up and I was sharing the story. And a gentleman, Andrew Tischler came out of the audience up at the front at the very end. And he says, "Dr. Demartini your story inspired me. I'm an artist and painter, I would love to be able to paint what you just described." And we exchanged emails and he says, "I'd like to put together a rough idea on it and send it to you. And if you authorize it, we'll paint it."

And I said, "That'd be fantastic." And I don't know how he did it. He just, he captured that moment in my mind from my presentation. When he sent it to me, I was just brought to tears. I was going, "wow". So the sign that you can, can you articulate your vision so clear that somebody can see it? That's when you know you have clear vision and you're on track with your highest value. Now, once you do that, you'll automatically have a different set of feelings. Instead of the polarized emotional feelings, like joy and sorrow and happy and sad and seek and avoid and elation, depression, and infatuation resentment, which are polarized, you have what I call synthesized feelings, transcendent feelings. Which is grace, which is love, which is inspiration, which is true enthusiasm. The divine within is some people call it. And also certainty and presence.

These are what I call the transcendental feelings, which are confirmations that you're authentic and living by what you value most. You're now being authentic. Your identity revolves around what your highest value is. Your ontological identity is an expression of your highest value. Your teleological purpose is an expression of your highest value. Your epistemological desire to learn is in your highest value. You automatically absorb information according to what you value most. That's why the mother would see this children's clothes because that's what's most important to her in the environment. We absorb information, retain information, and apply information there. That's why we have the highest degree of achievement in that area. We're disciplined, reliable and focused in our highest value. And we procrastinate, hesitate and frustrate in our lowest. So if we start off with the highest value, we dominate our thought on it. We visualize it.

We affirm it. We feel inspired by it. We know we're on track. If you get the transcendental feelings, gratitude, love, inspiration, enthusiasm, certainty, and presence, that's a sign there's authenticity. That's a sign you're congruent. That's a sign of fluency. Fluency goes with congruency. When you're in that state, you will automatically want to write things down, which is the next step, writing things down. You want to capture it. I'm sure all of you've had moments when you're so inspired by something, "Man, I got to write that down. I got to capture it. I don't want to lose that idea." You write it down. And when you do the next steps are; in space and time. Where would you love to create it? When would you love to create it? And when you're actually clear in your vision, you can see how you're going to do it,

what you're going to do, when you're going to do it, you actually create a kind of a space a time and a strategy in your mind. That's the beauty of the executive center. It can literally articulate to you and design for you. It's the design center. I say people who live by design go farther than people who live by duty. People that are conforming to other people's values and subordinating to other people's values and trying to live in lower values, fitting in, conforming, are not the people who are the visionary leaders that go and do extraordinary things. They're not the manifestors, they're the ones that are waiting to see what happens, instead of making things happen. So if you automatically write it down in space and time and sit down and plan your life, people who fail to plan, plan to fail is the old proverb. If you're sitting there inspired by a vision, can articulate that and write it out and put it down when you want to do it, where you want to do it, and refine that and polish that and write that.

I sometimes on my master plan text, which is 30 volumes, I've been working on since I was 17, I started the night I met Paul Bragg and the next day, and the next day, every time I learned from him, I was writing things. I started a master planning at that point and writing down how I wanted my life and I realized that if I don't decide how I want my life, other people do. And nobody's getting up in the morning and dedicating their life to you. If you're not dedicated to it, you're going to be infiltrated by everybody else's expectation. And you're going to basically be living by default, not by design. So I basically sat down and I wrote those things out and I've now manifested those and keep metrics of those and I get to achieve those things and it's extremely fulfilling in life.

And I'm a firm believer that that manifestation, I'm not, this, this message today is not just something, a little whimmy thing here. This is something I've been living for 48 years, almost 49 years. It's very important to me. And by going through actually writing it out in space and time exactly what you want to do and where you want to do it and when you want to do it. I wrote down that I wanted to go to all the countries around the world. I've been keeping records of every country that we've been to, 154 countries I've spoken in. Writing down every city that we've been into, cause I made it a mission to do that. Keeping records of the numbers of people that you reach. I mean, I'm a metric freak, because I found out that if you really are committed to doing something, you'll metric it, you'll write it out and you'll measure what your actions are relative to what you're saying, what you're striving for.

If it's not matching it, somehow it's not really important to you. If it's really important to you, you'll be working on it. You don't need motivation again, you'll be inspired from within intrinsically to just take action. I want intrinsic drive. I don't want external motivation. External motivation is a symptom, never a solution for achievement. Because if you have to have a motivation to get you to do it, it's like pushing people uphill at work. If they have to be motivated, they're in the wrong job. And you have the managers hire the people that are not inspired by it, they're not engaged. And you want to be engaged in your life. You want to be inspired by your life. And you're not going to live an inspired life, doing low priority things. You better be learning to delegate those because if you can't delegate lower priority things, you won't get to live the high priority things.

And you live by high priority things your self worth goes up. You live by lower priority things, self-worth goes down. So the next thing is then taking action. The moment you clarify what you're going to do, and you know what you're going to do, and it's spontaneously inspiring to you, you'll want to take action. And that action is going to have filled with energy. I learned a long time ago the energy is infinite once you recognize the source, and your vitality is directly proportionate to the vividness of the vision that you have. And if you want more energy, just get clear about what you're really committed to and focus on the service of making that difference. If you do, your energy goes up. I don't have a lack of energy. I've been doing this for a long time, and I'm just as inspired, enthused as I was back at the time when I started this thing.

And it's because of clarity of vision. And if you're basically you have tremendous amount of energy, it's because you're not living to eat, you're eating to live. You're not, you know, when somebody is really inspired about things, they have incredible, the executive center calms down the amygdala and you have incredible discipline and you're focused. And if a person is not disciplined and focused, it's because they're scattered and they're doing low priority things. I don't need to be reminded to do what I do every day. I would need to be reminded if I was doing low priority things, but not the things that I love doing. And so automatically you take action and you will have energy for it. And that energy is not, there's no limitation on energy when you're doing something that's truly inspiring and meaningful to you. And when you do, then you realize the resources around you are all around you.

There's no lack of resources, but you can't see them if you're not living congruently with the highest value. When you're doing something that's low on your values, you have attention deficit disorder, retention deficit disorder, intention deficits order. But when you're doing something high on your values, you have attention surplus order. That means you're able to see information and grab information, take information, and take action on it. And you will see resources. You will see opportunities. You will see people possibilities. You will take your resources that are in front of you that you can't see if you're living by lower values and you will observe them and you will take actions on them. So that's why the matter, which is the next part of the formula after energy, taking actions with energy on matter automatically is there. And there's a synchronicity and there's people, places, things, ideas, and events that surface in your life that align with what you value most that start to be acutely aware of and acted upon.

And that's it. It's not that it was there missing in the past. It's just it's there. This is really the key to the law of attraction. If you remember the movie, The Secret that I had the blessing to be in, and the newest movie, How Thoughts Become Things, if you like what I'm saying today, get that movie, How Thoughts Become Things also, because in there in the new book that's come with it this manifestation formula is outlined. But you want to make sure that you get the highest priority. That's the key in this process. And on my website, again, go back and do the value determination process. And there's also an extra video on there online called, Manifesting. Right? Go on there and take a look at this. I elaborate on this in more depth than what I can do in this brief 30 minutes here.

But once you take actions on it with energy on the resources, whenever you're living by your highest values, your self worth is at the highest and your self worth when it's high, you feel you deserve. True self worth is not elevated or depressed self-esteems. True self worth is the authentic you. When you're proud and cocky, that's an elevated self-esteem. When you're shamed and depressed and kind of beaten down, that's a low self-esteem. But when you're in the center, it's true self-worth. When you're authentic, living by your highest values and objectively pursuing something deeply meaningful, your self worth is at its peak and your deserve level automatically comes in. You feel I'm worthy of having what I dream about, and that's a component. And on the last step of the formula, it's gratitude. Every day document it. I have the largest collection of gratitudes of anybody I've ever met.

I've been writing on them for years and years and years. Write down what you're grateful for, because if you're grateful for what you got, you get more to be grateful for. In my book, Count Your Blessings, I outline that. My mom taught me that when I was four years old and I put that book out before she passed away, to make sure that that book got out to thank her. But if you're actually grateful for what you've got, your mind is more resilient, adaptable, and able to see things in a state of gratitude because gratitude, true grace is a sign that you're authentic. If you're not, if you're judging the world and infatuated or resentful, you're imposing an illusion of your own projection onto the world. But if you're graced and you're in a state of gratitude and there's nothing to change in you relative to others or others relative to you, and you're really appreciative about life in that moment, in that grace state, the authentic you, that's where you're most profound and powerful. The magnificence of who you are

there, is more profound than any fantasies you'll impose on yourself. In the process of doing that, you want to make sure that you actually have that gratitude outcome. And when you're manifesting things, it's easy to do it because you're documenting and metricking all the things that you're achieving. And in the process of doing that, you'll manifest it. You'll manifest it. Now, let me go through that formula again, because you may not have picked them all out, but let me just go through it one more time. Purpose, plus thought, plus vision, plus internal dialogue or affirmation, firmness in one's mind, plus feeling, plus writing things down in space and time, plus taking actions with energy on matter, resources, plus feeling deserving, plus being thankful, brings a manifestation. That formula, that 13 step formula has been the key formula steps that I've used again, since I was 17, 18 years old. When I first heard some of these principles from Paul Bragg.

When I first met him, I met him on an evening program November 18th, 1972 at the Sunset Recreation Hall in Waimea Bay area in Hawaii on the north shore where I was a surfer. And there, after that, he said, well, each morning he has a class on the other side of the island either in Fort DeRussy or sometimes the one in Wahiawa. And I went and joined him. Man, I was up hitchhiking into the other side of the island early in the morning, just to make sure I could be there and whatever he would say, I would try to remember and take notes. And I had a piece of paper and I'd write those things down. And that formula was emerged by just writing down what he was saying. And then I started to apply that into my life. And I realized something really important.

You have to start with what you know. Start with what you know. My first time I wrote my mission statement, I knew, I knew that I knew that I knew that I wanted to travel the world. So I wrote down, travel the world. I knew that I knew that I wanted to overcome my learning problems and become intelligent. I want to learn. I knew that when I thought of somebody who is learned intelligent, I thought a teacher and I said, I want to be a teacher. I want to travel the world. I want to study these things he's calling universal laws, because he mentioned that term, sounded cool. I didn't know what it meant, but it sounded cool. I wrote down. I wrote my first little mission statement as a sentence. And then I read it and refined it and read it and refined it and read it and refined it.

Now, 79 times in all these 48 years, 79 times of renditions of that original statement. I've never thrown it away. I just kept refining it. Reading, refining, reading, refining, laying out what you want to manifest, reading it, refining it, planning it, reading it, refining it, getting clear on it. If you're clear and you're concise and you can see it in your mind's eye and you can follow that formula, you're going to manifest it. But it's got to be something inside you that's so inspiring to you that there's no turning back. It has to be something you feel it's a relentless pursuit that there's no option. You're going for it. If you have something that is not really that inspiring to you, it's not high in your values, but something deeply meaningful that's truly high in your values that inspires you that spontaneously you can't stop doing,

that's what you want to do. Don't waste your time on something that's not really, truly inspiring to you. How can you expect an inspiring life if you're doing low priority things and depressive things? Anytime you're not delegating lower priority things and sticking to higher priority things, you're devaluing yourself. So you want to make sure you're pursuing the highest priority actions you can each day. That's the key to manifesting, the formula. So again, purpose, which is your highest value plus thought, which is a spontaneous thing that comes out of you. Your inner most dominant thought will become your outermost tangible reality. Plus vision. Clear vision makes things happen. Being able to articulate that fluently in terms of a certain firmness of one's mind, an affirmation. Automatically feeling inspired and grateful, which is the confirmation you're authentic. Automatically wanting to write those things down in space and time and plan and detail the plans, which I've spent thousands and thousands of hours on plans.

And I find that that's incredibly, you know, anytime you're reading something and writing a goal down and writing a goal down every single day, you increase the odds of seeing opportunities and taking advantage of them I guarantee you. The synchronicities are too obvious. Almost anybody that's done goals knows what I'm talking about. In the process of doing that, writing down in space and time, taking action, automatically spontaneously with an amazing amount of energy, because enthusiasm is a powerful energy. It creates a chain reaction of people in helping you get your goals automatically with energy, on resources. Resources are abundant once you recognize that. You can't see the resources until you're congruent. And then automatically as you take those actions with energy on matter, the resources, you automatically feel the deserve level because you're living by your highest values where your self worth is that size

and you'll be grateful. In fact, it's been shown in the frontal cortex whenever you're doing something in your highest values, that's aligned with that, you tend to see things not in the way, but on the way. You tend to not see things as failures and fantasies, you tend to see them as feedback, a homeostatic feedback to authenticity. Everything that's going on in your life is trying to help you become authentic and congruent with who you really are. And so the manifestation is a confirmation of authenticity. So this formula has been the one I've been using since I was 17, 18 years old. And I just wanted to share that with you, because I know that if you were to go through that and literally lay out an objective, that's truly inspiring to you that you are, there's no question, write it out, follow that process.

And I assure you time x intensity gives results. The more intensely you focus on that outcome, the more intensely you take those actions, the more intensely you clarify that and refine the goal, the more intensely you do all those steps, time x intensity gives results, the quicker the results you'll have in your life. Now, I'm not interested in immediate gratification. I'm interested in a long-term vision, but I just know that it's efficiency and effectancy is what gives you competitive advantage and competitive advantage as Ricardo says in the world, whoever can manifest something more effectively and efficiently than somebody else, automatically rises in leadership. So give yourself permission to shine, give yourself permission to manifest things according to the formula. It will be applied and it's just as it's done in my life, this is the key behind the law of attraction. You really want the law of attraction,

I just gave it to you. That's the law of attraction in at least a 30 minute version. I have a much more advanced version on it, but that's at least a 30 minute version of it. And so call in, write in, and let us know how you're doing on the manifestation. There's no harm in having a visual board, but I have a visual book. It's thousands of pages and I'm a firm believer in keeping metrics. So follow the formula, start manifesting what you want. Your inner most dominant thought will become your outermost tangible reality. Also, I just want to let you know that there's an upcoming masterclass called Accessing Your 7 Greatest Powers. And I want to make sure that you know that you can act also get when you sign up for that, now, what this is going to do is how to empower all seven areas of your life, according to your values.

So you can do what you love and empower all areas of your life. Cause any area of your life you don't empower, people overpower you. And that's where the distractions come in. So to have a perpetual life, a vivacious life, this Accessing Your 7 Greatest Powers, this masterclass, you definitely want to attend. And also if you sign up now, you'll actually receive a free gift, which is Awakening Your Astronomical Vision. And I am absolutely certain of that video right there, that audio program, pardon me, will automatically inspire you to go into expand your vision. So listen to that about five times between now and the time of the masterclass, and I'll see you there. So remember the manifestation formula. I look forward to hearing any, any comments about what your achievements are for the week or for the month or however long it is. Keep me informed. Love you all.
