Are You Here To Be A Teacher? 215Working with others using those healing techniques has allowed me to
make all kinds of unique discoveries, including other aspects of who I
am. I don’t think I would have been able to go as deep within myself,
and seen the truths about myself, if I hadn’t explored these healing
techniques with others.
More recently, I’ve been working with Joe Vitale and using a
technique called Ho’oponopono. Joe talked about it is his book, Zero
Limits. It’s been a real important technique in the newest progressions of
my life. Of course The Secret was what inspired me to find Joe, and
many aspects of the law of attraction are a foundational philosophy for
me. I think The Secret has helped bring me to a deeper level of
understanding. Joe’s work and the other healing modalities I have learned
have allowed me to sustain it and move me through any blocks that come
up.
I believe that when you make big requests of the universe, when
you have big dreams, and make them known, and ask fervently with
visualization and feeling, whatever is not in alignment with those dreams
will come up for viewing, airing, acknowledging, thanking and,
ultimately, releasing. Joe’s work and the law of attraction are two fantastic
practices that have really allowed me to find my current level of bliss.
If you could give advice to those who are still searching for their
life’s purpose, what would it be?
There are a few things I’d like to share from my book, The Big Book of
Yo u. One is called the “consistency theory.” Most people are extremely
consistent with their behavior, and there’s good and bad in that. People
who are not on a spiritual path are usually quite consistent in their
behaviors. What that means is they typically respond in a very predictable
manner. If you’re about to tell them something, for example, and you
anticipate that they’re going to respond in a certain way, they probably
will.
At some point, it becomes your responsibility to find a new tactic
with that person. If you say something to your mother, and she responds
in the exact same way that she has for the last 45 years, you have a
number of choices to alter the pattern—you can either not tell her at all,
or you can choose a different way to be with her reaction. Find a way to
respond to her, rather than react in the same predictable manner yourself.
That simple choice helps a lot of people. Once they know that this other
person is going to react exactly how they always have, they can take
