It's the attachment of the infatuation or resentment to money.
Speaker:That's why Warren Buffet says, until you can manage your emotions,
Speaker:don't expect to manage your money.
Speaker:Today is about economics or finance,
Speaker:I'm going to call it Mind Over Money,
Speaker:but it's basically breaking free from the financial stress that many people
Speaker:are facing and living a more abundant you know, life,
Speaker:having an unlocking the abundance that you can have in life.
Speaker:So if you have something to write with and write on, that would be fantastic.
Speaker:First thing I want to say is there's two primary
Speaker:distresses relating to money. So if you're going to write that,
Speaker:write these down.
Speaker:The perception or fear of loss of
Speaker:that which you seek.
Speaker:The perception of loss of money that you're seeking. That's one.
Speaker:The other one is the perception of gain of that what you're trying to avoid.
Speaker:So let's give an example what that might be.
Speaker:If you're seeking new clients to do transactions in sustainable fair
Speaker:exchange, where you get remunerated for some service you provide,
Speaker:or product that you provide, or some idea that you provide,
Speaker:if you consult or coach, and you fear the loss of those clients,
Speaker:then you are fearing the loss of that which you seek.
Speaker:And that's distressful.
Speaker:If you are perceiving bills coming in that you're
Speaker:trying to avoid,
Speaker:or difficult clients that don't pay and you don't want to deal with them,
Speaker:or people that distract you or interfere with you earning the income,
Speaker:that's also distressful. There's two basic forms of distress.
Speaker:The perception of loss of that which you seek,
Speaker:the perception of gain of that which you're trying to avoid. All
Speaker:distress falls into those two categories, including financial stress.
Speaker:Now those financial stresses are,
Speaker:you might say, mitigated or calmed down or governed
Speaker:if you're more neutral in your perceptions. For instance,
Speaker:if you're infatuated with somebody, highly infatuated,
Speaker:you're going to fear their loss and you're going to be highly stressed if they
Speaker:were to leave. If you're highly resentful, you're going to fear their gain.
Speaker:You're afraid of them coming close.
Speaker:If you're neutral and you're not infatuated or resentful,
Speaker:then they can come or go with more resilience and adaptability.
Speaker:Distress is the inability to adapt to a changing environment.
Speaker:The world's constantly changing. If you can't adapt to it, you got distress.
Speaker:Financial distress is the inability to adapt to a changing environment.
Speaker:And the perception of loss of that which you seek and the perception of gain of
Speaker:that what you're trying to avoid.
Speaker:So the more infatuated you are with getting the money,
Speaker:the more you're resentful you are of losing the money or not getting the money
Speaker:or having bills or taking money away,
Speaker:having money come in or having money go out, those two fears.
Speaker:If you're highly polarized, you're more distressed,
Speaker:and you're more distracted.
Speaker:Because anything you infatuate with and seek occupies space and time in your
Speaker:mind.
Speaker:We've all been infatuated and couldn't even sleep at night because we're so
Speaker:infatuated.
Speaker:And we've also been so resentful at night that we couldn't sleep because we're
Speaker:distracted.
Speaker:So anytime you polarize your perceptions and become highly infatuated or highly
Speaker:resentful to the gain or loss of money,
Speaker:it runs your life extrinsically and the circumstances and the events in your
Speaker:life are running you and you're highly distressed.
Speaker:When you are highly polarized and add valency or emotional charge
Speaker:to these things, positively or negatively, the subcortical area of the brain,
Speaker:called the amygdala,
Speaker:which is assigning valency to your memories and your subconscious mind,
Speaker:it runs you and it then therefore tends to polarize your perceptions further,
Speaker:more subjective bias and distortions on how happy you'll be if you'll get it
Speaker:and how sad you'll be if you don't. The more polarized you are,
Speaker:the more amygdala driven you are, the more survival emotional you are,
Speaker:the more you accentuate the distress levels.
Speaker:But if you are more objective, more neutral,
Speaker:more balanced in your perception,
Speaker:you'll be less distressed about the gain and loss of money.
Speaker:You'll be more strategic in your communication
Speaker:and in your transactions of service. Also,
Speaker:when you are infatuated with somebody, you'll sacrifice for them.
Speaker:If you're resentful to somebody, you'll sacrifice them for you.
Speaker:Both of which are non-sustainable transactional states.
Speaker:But, now you know, I rarely do a presentation without talking about values,
Speaker:because everything that goes on in human behavior relates to it.
Speaker:You have a set of priorities in life, a set of values in life,
Speaker:whatever's highest on that list of priorities, the
Speaker:highest value is where you're most objective, most neutral,
Speaker:most balanced.
Speaker:And whatever's lower on your value list is where you're more subjective,
Speaker:more amygdala driven, because you're, you're not fulfilled there in that.
Speaker:Anytime you're doing something that's really high on your value,
Speaker:you grow your self-worth, you grow your, you get your blood, glucose,
Speaker:and oxygen going into the forebrain, your forebrain,
Speaker:your orbital medial prefrontal cortex area is the governing center to govern
Speaker:the emotional swings and to neutralize the subjective biases of
Speaker:extremes and bring them back into more of a balanced objective state.
Speaker:So if you're filling your day with high priority actions that inspire you,
Speaker:that are being remunerated from serving people in sustainable fair
Speaker:exchange manners,
Speaker:you will maximize your financial income
Speaker:and the most stable you'll be with it.
Speaker:And whoever has the most stability with money gets more money.
Speaker:Warren Buffett has a nice few sayings if you look through some of his videos and
Speaker:read some of his books,
Speaker:you'll see he says that money circulates through the economy from those who have
Speaker:the least order to those that have the most order with their financial house and
Speaker:and their money management.
Speaker:They go from those who value it least to those who value it most.
Speaker:They go where you have the least amount of certainty to where you have the most
Speaker:amount of certainty,
Speaker:least amount of emotional stability to the most amount of stability.
Speaker:So anytime you're living by your highest values and doing something that's
Speaker:really meaningful to you, that's something that inspires you spontaneously,
Speaker:something you can't wait to go and do of service to people,
Speaker:where you're willing to endure challenges and whatever the pains and pleasures
Speaker:in the pursuit is something purposeful and meaningful,
Speaker:when you're actually pursuing solving problems for people that you love doing
Speaker:that because it's meaningful and it helps you bring fulfillment in your life,
Speaker:the executive center governs the amygdala and calms down the
Speaker:extremes of subjective bias, which polarize the mind,
Speaker:which makes you more distressful.
Speaker:But if you follow your highest priority things,
Speaker:it calms all that down and reduces the distress.
Speaker:It increases the probability of you communicating more
Speaker:objectively and not trying to get something for nothing
Speaker:or give away something for nothing in an altruistic mode.
Speaker:Both of those personas, those false identities,
Speaker:those elevated or depressed self-esteem perceptions are all amygdala based.
Speaker:They're all emotional based. See if you infatuate with somebody,
Speaker:you'll minimize yourself and sacrifice for them,
Speaker:you won't end up keeping the money and you won't you
Speaker:won't feel worthy of it.
Speaker:And if you go around and put people down and resent them and exaggerate
Speaker:yourself, a false persona,
Speaker:you'll narcissistically try to get them to give you something for nothing.
Speaker:None of those are sustainable.
Speaker:Trying to get something or give something for nothing is non-sustainable.
Speaker:So the second we live by priority, the more we're objective,
Speaker:the more we're spontaneously inspired to live, to fulfill and serve people,
Speaker:doing something we love, which is fulfilling us so it's a fair exchange,
Speaker:and doing it in a way where we're in equanimity,
Speaker:not exaggerating or minimizing yourself or minimizing and exaggerating them,
Speaker:the more we have access to sustainable fair exchange where you and the
Speaker:individual customer wants to do business and you want, you get more referrals.
Speaker:There's an abundance there. There's no lack there.
Speaker:We only have a perception of gain and loss or lack, something missing,
Speaker:when we have imbalanced perspectives, Claude Shannon,
Speaker:in his studies on information theory,
Speaker:described the tendency to go from order to disorder,
Speaker:and disorder means missing information and order means full information.
Speaker:In other words,
Speaker:when you are able to see things objectively and
Speaker:fair exchange manner and you have an objective view,
Speaker:you understand the customer's views, you understand your own views,
Speaker:and you try to find a win-win relationship,
Speaker:which allows you to have more sustainable business transactions,
Speaker:and you have more abundance because there's more people that are going to want
Speaker:to refer to you because they feel they can trust you.
Speaker:Their oxytocin and their vasopressin hormones when they're doing business with
Speaker:you go up and they believe in you and they want to refer to you,
Speaker:you get more possible business.
Speaker:But the second you're not living by priority,
Speaker:trying to sell something you don't believe in,
Speaker:or trying to exaggerate yourself and get something for nothing,
Speaker:or minimize yourself and sacrifice,
Speaker:almost everybody's probably had a transaction with somebody they put on a
Speaker:pedestal, some celebrity or whatever they were doing business with,
Speaker:they didn't want to lose the business so they sacrificed the profits and gave a
Speaker:discount. Or maybe they narcissistically thought,
Speaker:I don't need this client and I'm just going to gouge them.
Speaker:And they've gone to the extreme and narcissistically expected something for
Speaker:nothing. Those don't sustain, nobody wants to,
Speaker:you're not going to build a brand that way.
Speaker:You're going to build a brand with sustainable fair exchange when you have a
Speaker:willingness to have a win-win relationship with them.
Speaker:So that occurs more probably when you're living by priority,
Speaker:which means in your business,
Speaker:if you're delegating things that are not inspiring to you,
Speaker:to people who are inspired to do it and they're engaged and you're engaged and
Speaker:you're both doing high value actions,
Speaker:your business goes up in value and there's not a lack of,
Speaker:there's never a lack of money to people who care about serving people.
Speaker:There's always something out in the world that people need,
Speaker:and caring enough about human beings to go out and find out what that is,
Speaker:is what brings the abundance.
Speaker:Caring enough about it to find out what they really need is not narcissistically
Speaker:assuming and presuming you know what they need,
Speaker:or altruistically sacrificing what you need for what they need,
Speaker:but actually finding out what inspires you that would be fulfilling to other
Speaker:people that inspires you with your skill and your competency to go out and
Speaker:deliver. Whatever's highest on your value is where your highest, you might say,
Speaker:competitive advantage, competitive you know, advantage and opportunity is.
Speaker:You know, Ricardo in his work on competitive advantage and comparative,
Speaker:you know, opportunities,
Speaker:show very well that when you find the thing that you have the greatest resource
Speaker:about and exchange that with somebody else that's doing the same,
Speaker:you both have the best transactions. Countries do that, cities do that,
Speaker:people do that. Your greatest asset is when you're living congruently,
Speaker:authentically according to what you value most.
Speaker:That's why in the Breakthrough Experience,
Speaker:the program I teach pretty well every week or every two weeks,
Speaker:I am showing people how to one, identify what their hierarchy of values are.
Speaker:If you have not gone onto my website,
Speaker:drdemartini.com and done the Value Determination process, do it.
Speaker:Take the time to do, it's 30 minutes of your time, it's free,
Speaker:it's complimentary, it's private. Take the time to do it.
Speaker:Do it again a week from now because you'll lie to yourself the first time,
Speaker:probably.
Speaker:You'll probably write down what you want it to be as a value structure,
Speaker:but answer the questions really integrally,
Speaker:be reflective and really take the moment to answer the questions that are on
Speaker:that questionnaire. Do it again a week from now. Do it again a month from now.
Speaker:Do it again three months from now and do it every three months to keep current
Speaker:with what your values because they evolve as you go through life.
Speaker:And then make sure that you're prioritizing your daily
Speaker:most meaningful to you and doing something that contributes and serves other
Speaker:people so you stay in your executive center so you stay
Speaker:less,
Speaker:you're more resilient and less vulnerable to the distresses of gains and losses,
Speaker:or the perception of loss of that which you seek or perception of gain of that
Speaker:which you're trying to avoid. And allows you to stay out of the amygdala,
Speaker:which is an emergency survival mentality instead of a thrival mentality.
Speaker:And you can live more abundantly from that perspective, with more fair exchange,
Speaker:more referrals, more opportunities in that mode.
Speaker:That's why in the Breakthrough Experience I help people go through and identify
Speaker:what their highest value is,
Speaker:show them how to prioritize their life and live accordingly.
Speaker:And then I give them the Demartini Method. The Demartini Method is,
Speaker:is the science on how to ask questions to be conscious of what's
Speaker:unconscious.
Speaker:Because when you're infatuated with somebody you're conscious of the upsides,
Speaker:you're unconscious of the downsides, therefore you're going to fear their loss.
Speaker:If you're resentful to somebody, you're going to be conscious of the downsides,
Speaker:unconscious of the upsides, you're going to fear their gain.
Speaker:If you're infatuated with money or resentful to money,
Speaker:it will run you. In the great book by Hubert Howe Bancroft the Book of Wealth,
Speaker:which is a classic which I have access to and bought a copy of.
Speaker:It's only 400 copies ever printed originally.
Speaker:In that book it talks about three things that were common to extremely wealthy
Speaker:people. One, they felt that they had by divine province and human sovereignty,
Speaker:a desire to serve vast numbers of people. A calling,
Speaker:a feeling like it's destined to serve vast numbers of people.
Speaker:They also felt that they had a mission to go and raise and elevate the standards
Speaker:of people in humanity. And they also, not to be attached,
Speaker:pleasure or pain, infatuation resentment, to money.
Speaker:Not seeing it as evil or good.
Speaker:Seeing it as simply a measuring device of the contribution you're making in
Speaker:sustainable fair exchange with human beings on the planet. Not to attach to it.
Speaker:It's the attachment of the infatuation or resentment to money,
Speaker:that's why Warren Buffet says, until you can manage your emotions,
Speaker:don't expect to manage your money. If you're not able to manage your emotions,
Speaker:you're going to be highly distressed,
Speaker:you're going to not have the abundant mindset, you're going to live in survival.
Speaker:And that's why in the Breakthrough Experience I
Speaker:on how to dissolve all the emotional,
Speaker:subconsciously stored baggage associated with money or different areas
Speaker:of your life, not just money, relationships, social issues,
Speaker:because as long as you infatuate resent, they are going to run you.
Speaker:You are not going to be in command.
Speaker:If you want to be a master of your fate and captain of your ship and be a
Speaker:master of your destiny, not a victim of your history,
Speaker:and not be distracted by emotions and be trapped,
Speaker:where you devalue yourself and feel unworthy of having abundance,
Speaker:then prioritize your life.
Speaker:That's why I help people come to the Breakthrough Experience,
Speaker:to show them how to prioritize it and to dissolve the emotional baggage that
Speaker:distract people from being present. If you're purposeful,
Speaker:which is your highest value, if you're present,
Speaker:which you're not wobbling and waffling around with emotions,
Speaker:you're productive, you're prioritized,
Speaker:and you're basically empowered by your life,
Speaker:then you're going to have more abundance in your life than you are
Speaker:if you're sitting there in vicisitudes of emotions all the time and falsely
Speaker:attributing the things on the outside with blame and credit to things.
Speaker:People that blame reasons why they're not abundant and people then give credit
Speaker:to people outside them that think they're going to make them abundant,
Speaker:they're not going to be as abundant as the people who are living congruently by
Speaker:who they are authentically, not giving credit or blames on the outside,
Speaker:but taking accountabilities on the inside.
Speaker:You want to be able to bring your mind into accountable balance sheet where you
Speaker:can see both sides of yourself. Because whatever you infatuate with,
Speaker:you're basically disowning in yourself. Whenever you're resentful,
Speaker:you're disowning yourself.
Speaker:Being accountable is to bring those and have reflective awareness and realize
Speaker:you have everything you see out there so you're no longer distracted by them.
Speaker:You're not infatuated or resentful.
Speaker:That's why in the Breakthrough Experience I show you where you actually already
Speaker:have what you're looking for, it's in a form you're not honoring.
Speaker:That's a gold mine when you get that,
Speaker:to realize that nothing's missing in your life,
Speaker:abundant is the realization that nothing's missing,
Speaker:and lack is the perception that there's something missing.
Speaker:So when Claude Shannon talks about missing information,
Speaker:it's because we're unconscious of things. In the Breakthrough Experience,
Speaker:I help people become fully conscious, sometimes called mindful,
Speaker:sometimes called super conscious or cosmic conscious or spiritual conscious,
Speaker:whatever title you want to give it.
Speaker:I want people to realize that there is an abundance sitting in their life that
Speaker:they can empower all areas of their life, particularly the financial area,
Speaker:which is a universal value system.
Speaker:And that many times their finances are stored in other areas and they're not
Speaker:honoring. They may have some of their wealth in intellectual property.
Speaker:They may have wealth in sometimes in a business that they haven't sold yet,
Speaker:or products they haven't sold, ideas in their head,
Speaker:they may have in their beauty or their attractiveness.
Speaker:Sometimes people will exchange finances for that.
Speaker:Or their spiritual awareness or possibly their social contacts.
Speaker:There's not a lack in your life. In the Breakthrough Experience,
Speaker:I show people how to discover what they think is missing,
Speaker:where it is in the form it is, so they're not giving power to other people,
Speaker:they're giving power back to themselves, contributing to other people,
Speaker:in a sustainable fair exchange, objectively by their highest values.
Speaker:Because the forebrain is where objectivity is.
Speaker:And if you're not living with foresight and planning your life by design,
Speaker:you're going to be living by hindsight, living by duty.
Speaker:And you're going to be basically minimizing yourself
Speaker:yourself to people and judging yourself with gossip,
Speaker:which is a symptom of a non-engaged, non ninspired, non prioritized,
Speaker:non-focused leader. So if you want to go and grow your leadership,
Speaker:if you want to go and empower your life,
Speaker:you want to go and build more abundance in your life,
Speaker:you want to have a master of your mind and master of your life and basically
Speaker:have an integrated mind instead of a disintegrated mind,
Speaker:come to the Breakthrough Experience.
Speaker:I'm absolutely certain that that program has transformed thousands and thousands
Speaker:of people's lives all over the world. And I know it can do the same for you.
Speaker:I know it can help you have a trajectory of where there's more abundance in your
Speaker:life. I know it can help you have more stability.
Speaker:I know it can help you have less distress and more eustress,
Speaker:which is a wellness promoting vitality where you get up in the morning and you
Speaker:can't wait to go out and be of service, tackling challenges.
Speaker:See people that are inspired by what they do look for challenge to solve.
Speaker:People that are uninspired are trying to avoid challenges and look for an easy
Speaker:path, an immediate gratifying kind of path. A short term thinking.
Speaker:The people that are doing what they love and doing something that's inspiring
Speaker:and living by their highest values think long term, they start to focus.
Speaker:And what is wealth building but deferred gratification.
Speaker:It's taking and expanding your space and time horizons.
Speaker:In the Breakthrough Experience I show you how to expand the space and time
Speaker:horizons to look from a celestial view looking down on the earth instead of a
Speaker:terrestrial view looking out from the earth.
Speaker:I want you to look down and realize this world,
Speaker:what do I want to accomplish on world today?
Speaker:Instead of all the world's on top of me?
Speaker:I want you to be on top of the world and look down and realize, hey,
Speaker:this whole world is mine. You know,
Speaker:I've said for years that the universe is my playground, the world is my home,
Speaker:every country's a room in the house,
Speaker:every city's a platform to share my heart and soul and I hold it in my mind and
Speaker:spin the world in my hands and go,
Speaker:what do I want to do in this what part of the world today?
Speaker:You have the power to have an abundance of whole globe.
Speaker:With the internet today and all the knowledge we have access today,
Speaker:there's absolutely no reason why you can't live an abundant life.
Speaker:So come to the Breakthrough Experience. Let me share with you,
Speaker:if you've got something out of this 30 minutes, come there.
Speaker:Cause I'm going to take 25 or 26 hours and I'm going to share the most amazing
Speaker:information that's going to help you have mastery over your life.

Speaker:extraordinary with their life.
Speaker:I'm certain in the Breakthrough Experience I can impart to you information that
Speaker:is proven to work with thousands of people, it can work for you.
Speaker:So if you would like to have a more abundant life,
Speaker:if you'd like to have mind over money and break free the financials distress,
