complaint,

and you might be focusing on

whatever the problems are,

when you do this exercise you start

to go on a different direction.

You start to be grateful for all

the things that you feel good about.

Gratitude is absolutely the way

to bring more into your life.

Every man knows that when his

wife's appreciating him

for the little things he does,

what does he want to do?

He wants to do more.

It's always about appreciation.

It pulls things in, it attracts support.

I've said for many years

that whatever we think about

and thank about

we bring about.

That's that feeling that you have to have,

and so for me it' s been such

a powerful exercise,

every morning to get up and say thank you,

every morning when my feet hit

the floor, thank you.

And then I start running through

what I'm grateful for

as I'm going to brush my teeth and do

the things I do in the morning.

And I'm not just thinking about them

and doing some rote routine,

but I'm putting it out there

and I'm feeling the feelings of gratitude.

Because as soon as you start to feel

differently about what you already have,

you will start to attract

more of the good things,

more of the things you can

be grateful for.

Because you could look around and say,

"Well, look, I don't have the car

I want, I don't have the house I want,

I don't have the health I want,

I don't have the spouse I want,

Whoah, back up, back up.

Those are all the things you don't want.

Focus on what you already have

that you're grateful for.

And it might be, you have the eyes

to watch this.

It might be the clothes that you have.

Yes, you might prefer something else and

you might get something else pretty soon

if you start feeling grateful

for what you have.

I think everybody goes through

times when they say,

"oh man, things aren't working

right or things are going bad,

and there are some things

going on in my family..."

and I found a rock.

And I'm just sitting here holding this rock.

You might see me carrying it around.

I found a rock, I stuck it in

my pocket, and I said,

"You know what?

Every time I touch this rock,

I'm going to think of something that

I'm grateful for."

So every morning when I get

up in the morning,

I pick it up of f the dresser,

I put it in my pocket,

and I go through the things

that I'm grateful for.

At night, what do you do?

You empty your pocket,

and there it is again.

And I've had some different

experiences with that,

I've had some amazing experiences.

I had a guy from South Africa,

he saw me drop it and he said,

"What is that?"

I explained it to him, so he

started calling it a...

"Gratitude rock."

Two weeks later I got an email from him,

from South Africa.

And he said, "My son is dying from a

rare disease, it' s a type of Hepatitis.

Would you send me three gratitude rocks?"

They were just rocks I found off the street,

you know, so I said, "Sure."

I had to make sure that the rocks

were very special,

and so I went out to the stream,

looked, picked out the right rocks,

and sent them off to him.

Four or five months later,

I get an email from him.

He said, "My son' s better,

he's doing terrific,"

and he said, "but you need

to know something...

We've sold over a thousand rocks

at ten dollars a piece

as gratitude rocks,

and we've raised all this

money for charity.

Thank you very much."

And so it's very important to be in an

attitude of gratitude,

as I like to call it.

Another thing that I would suggest

that you do right now to turn

your life around

and this is so huge that I can't

find the words to describe

just how powerful this can be for you.

I took the visualisation process

from the Apollo program,

and instituted it during the 1980s

and 90s into the Olympic program.

And it was called visual motor rehearsal.

And the interesting thing

about the mind is,

we took Olympic athletes

and then hooked them up to sophisticated

bio-feedback equipment,

and had them run their event

only in their mind.

Incredibly, the same muscles fired

in the same sequence

when they were running the race

in their mind,

as when they were running it on the track.

How could this be?

Because the mind can't distinguish

whether you're really doing it

or whether it' s just a practice.

I think if you've been there in the mind,

you'll go there in the body.

When you're visualizing,

when you've got that picture

playing out in your mind,

always and only

dwell upon the end result.

Here's an example,

look at the back of your

hands right now.

Really look at the back or your hands,

the colour of your skin, the freckles,

the blood vessels,

the rings the fingernails,

the fake fingernails.

Take in all those details,

right before you close your eyes

and then see those hands,

your fingers wrapping around the

steering wheel

of your brand new car.

This is such a holographic experience,

so real

so real in this moment

that you don't even feel like

you need the car

because it feels like you

already have it.

See it's the feeling

that really creates the attraction,

not just the picture or the thought

and I think for a lot of people they think,

"Well if I think positive thoughts

or if I visualize having what I want,

that will be enough."

But if you're doing that and

still not feeling abundant

or feeling you know, loving or joyful,

then it doesn't from my mind

really create the power of

the attraction.

This is where the Secret actually

moves into action.

You put yourself in the feeling place

of really being in that car,

not, "Oh I wish I could get that car" or,

"Some day I'll have that car",

because that' s a very definite

feeling associated with that.

It's not in the now, it's not,

you know, it's in the future.

If you stay in that feeling

it will always be in the future.

Feel the joy, feel the happiness.

No matter how silly it seems in

that dark and quiet room

and you're going, "Woo hoo!"

Do it!

A lot of people will say, you know,

"Come on, do I have to do that?"

How bad do you want change?

Now that feeling

and that inner seeing

will begin to be an open doorway

through which the power of the

Universe will begin to express.

Our job is not to figure out the how

the how will show up

out of a commitment and belief

in the what.

The hows are the domain of

the universe.

It always knows the shortest,

quickest, fastest

most harmonious way between

you and your dream.

If you turn it over to the universe

you will be surprised and dazzled

by what is delivered to you.

This is where magic and miracles happen.

Well I would say you want to

do this virtually daily,

but my disclaimer is,

this should never be a chore.

What's really bottom line important here

to the whole Secret is feeling good.

You want to feel exhilarated

by this whole process.

You want to be high, happy,

in tune, as much as possible.

The only difference between people

who really are living this way
