WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.719 --> 00:00:07.620 So welcome back my friend. Welcome to module one lesson three in spiritual development academy. 2 00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:12.980 And in this lesson three, what we're gonna be looking at is we're gonna be looking at joy, 3 00:00:13.375 --> 00:00:17.555 but specifically we're gonna be looking at how to live your life to the fullest. 4 00:00:18.095 --> 00:00:21.715 Because living your life to the fullest not only brings you joy 5 00:00:22.175 --> 00:00:25.154 but it starts to affect others in that 6 00:00:25.710 --> 00:00:26.449 your joy 7 00:00:27.070 --> 00:00:28.189 brings them joy. 8 00:00:28.189 --> 00:00:33.730 You can then begin to impact everybody else, and then you can start to understand exactly 9 00:00:34.270 --> 00:00:35.410 what you're doing 10 00:00:35.870 --> 00:00:36.610 to affect 11 00:00:37.150 --> 00:00:40.690 the world because you're making a real impact on the world. 12 00:00:41.285 --> 00:00:43.144 So let's just dive right in. 13 00:00:44.565 --> 00:00:50.184 As we start to understand that this is something that is really kind of unique about, 14 00:00:51.844 --> 00:00:56.265 a facet of your life, you start to understand that this is something that really do 15 00:00:56.610 --> 00:00:57.010 have, 16 00:00:57.489 --> 00:01:02.070 an incremental impact throughout the world. And this is all about living your life to the fullest. 17 00:01:02.610 --> 00:01:09.590 So in this lesson three, one of the things we're going to be looking at is that life truly is meant to be full of joy. 18 00:01:10.185 --> 00:01:19.725 When you incarnate you're here to experience life in all of its lessons, but you're also here to allow your life to be full of joy, to be joyful, 19 00:01:20.265 --> 00:01:21.725 to enjoy life. 20 00:01:22.265 --> 00:01:23.805 Because without joy 21 00:01:24.750 --> 00:01:27.090 life doesn't really have any context. 22 00:01:27.149 --> 00:01:31.890 You don't come here to learn your lessons and have your challenges without joy. 23 00:01:32.829 --> 00:01:34.369 Joy is certainly 24 00:01:34.670 --> 00:01:40.165 a very important, if not the most important part of your life, to give it contrast. 25 00:01:41.025 --> 00:01:43.045 So you want to have that joy. 26 00:01:43.585 --> 00:01:52.325 For those who say, I'm not allowed to have joy, we're going to take a look at that and say your entire purpose of living on the planet is to have joy. 27 00:01:52.829 --> 00:01:56.289 We're also gonna look at the fact that spirit quite often, 28 00:01:56.829 --> 00:01:59.890 comes through to us, especially in mediumship readings, 29 00:02:00.270 --> 00:02:01.409 saying they 30 00:02:01.789 --> 00:02:07.810 wish they had lived their life full of joy. They wish they had lived their life to the fullest. 31 00:02:08.205 --> 00:02:10.065 They wish they had done something 32 00:02:10.604 --> 00:02:15.504 that would have enabled them to learn about joy. And they come through to their, 33 00:02:16.285 --> 00:02:22.305 recipients, to their charges, to their sitters, and they say, We urge you to live your life to the fullest. 34 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:24.819 Because by doing this, 35 00:02:25.200 --> 00:02:28.099 by living our life full of joy, by living our life 36 00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.659 and, to a point where we're 37 00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:32.260 living it to the fullest, 38 00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:37.194 it allows us to step beyond our self. It allows us to, 39 00:02:38.215 --> 00:02:41.995 begin to help others because we are so full of joy. 40 00:02:43.094 --> 00:02:44.555 So first off, 41 00:02:44.855 --> 00:02:49.834 one of the most important things is understand that you've got to fill your own life with 42 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:54.819 events and actions that go far beyond the everyday. 43 00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.940 You've got to live your life with extraordinary 44 00:02:58.560 --> 00:02:59.060 experiences 45 00:02:59.440 --> 00:03:04.819 every day. Now this doesn't mean go on a foreign trip. This doesn't mean you have to go 46 00:03:05.325 --> 00:03:08.785 and spend millions of dollars. This doesn't mean you have to do 47 00:03:09.165 --> 00:03:12.545 your crazy things. It means that you have to start thinking, 48 00:03:12.845 --> 00:03:16.865 what can I do to make my life extra special today? 49 00:03:17.485 --> 00:03:21.680 You know, whether you're going far and you're going to a 50 00:03:22.060 --> 00:03:22.560 tremendous, 51 00:03:22.940 --> 00:03:25.520 foreign destination, or you're staying home, 52 00:03:25.900 --> 00:03:27.920 think, What can I do today 53 00:03:28.380 --> 00:03:29.680 to make my life 54 00:03:29.980 --> 00:03:30.480 extraordinary? 55 00:03:31.915 --> 00:03:37.535 Pause for a second. Think about that. What can you do to make your life extraordinary today? 56 00:03:38.635 --> 00:03:40.735 Because if you're living your life to the fullest 57 00:03:41.195 --> 00:03:42.015 and you're 58 00:03:42.315 --> 00:03:44.335 conducting your life in such a manner 59 00:03:44.690 --> 00:03:48.629 that you're living it like this was the best day of your life. 60 00:03:49.090 --> 00:03:54.629 Perhaps the best day of your life, maybe the last day of your life, you'd be living it completely differently. 61 00:03:55.250 --> 00:04:00.474 You know, think about what would happen if you're going to say, okay this is going to be the best day of my life. 62 00:04:00.474 --> 00:04:01.694 How am I going to act? 63 00:04:02.715 --> 00:04:05.935 Because so many people are taking vacations for example 64 00:04:06.394 --> 00:04:07.295 or adventures 65 00:04:07.675 --> 00:04:08.815 or beautiful trips 66 00:04:09.275 --> 00:04:10.735 to far off lands 67 00:04:11.860 --> 00:04:14.520 because they want to experience the joy 68 00:04:15.060 --> 00:04:19.640 of that experience. They want to experience the the joy of that 69 00:04:20.020 --> 00:04:22.040 trip, of that adventure, 70 00:04:22.660 --> 00:04:25.720 whatever it is that's bringing excitement into their life. 71 00:04:26.335 --> 00:04:26.915 And again, 72 00:04:27.375 --> 00:04:31.315 I reiterate whether that's far away in some distant 73 00:04:31.855 --> 00:04:37.555 exotic land or that's near at home. The concept is how do you bring excitement into your life? 74 00:04:37.615 --> 00:04:38.915 How do you bring adventure 75 00:04:39.440 --> 00:04:42.260 and joy into your life? That's the bottom line. 76 00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:44.580 Because without joy 77 00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:47.860 your life doesn't really have any context. 78 00:04:48.880 --> 00:04:50.740 You need the ups and the downs. 79 00:04:51.305 --> 00:04:53.085 You need the contrast. 80 00:04:53.945 --> 00:04:56.525 Joy is a critical component to your life. 81 00:04:56.825 --> 00:05:00.205 So always be thinking how can I bring more joy into my life? 82 00:05:00.825 --> 00:05:02.985 And here are some different ways that you can bring, 83 00:05:03.385 --> 00:05:04.685 joy into your life. 84 00:05:05.069 --> 00:05:07.889 First off, start thinking, okay, well, a what's important 85 00:05:08.430 --> 00:05:09.090 to me. 86 00:05:09.629 --> 00:05:10.530 Start thinking, 87 00:05:10.909 --> 00:05:12.930 what are some of the values in my life? 88 00:05:13.310 --> 00:05:15.729 How can I fill my life with 89 00:05:16.030 --> 00:05:20.205 more of those values, more the joy, more the things that are important to me? 90 00:05:21.164 --> 00:05:21.985 Ask that. 91 00:05:22.525 --> 00:05:23.264 Then secondly, 92 00:05:23.805 --> 00:05:27.405 begin to realize you've got to step outside your comfort zone. 93 00:05:27.405 --> 00:05:29.664 We were talking a little bit about that before. 94 00:05:29.724 --> 00:05:34.784 Remember if you step outside your comfort zone that's gonna be the method for you to to grow. 95 00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:39.100 But if you're also focusing on stepping outside your comfort zone 96 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:45.660 to increase risk then it just makes your life just a little bit more adventuresome, a little bit more 97 00:05:46.200 --> 00:05:46.700 adventurous, 98 00:05:47.320 --> 00:05:49.900 a little bit more exotic no matter what you're doing. 99 00:05:50.455 --> 00:05:51.914 Maybe instead of 100 00:05:53.014 --> 00:05:56.794 driving down the road that you drive down every single day to work, 101 00:05:57.175 --> 00:06:00.235 maybe you drive down a completely different road. 102 00:06:00.775 --> 00:06:02.315 One that you've never been on. 103 00:06:03.255 --> 00:06:04.395 That's a new experience. 104 00:06:05.420 --> 00:06:06.480 That's new adventure. 105 00:06:07.260 --> 00:06:09.760 You haven't gone anywhere. You're just taking a different route. 106 00:06:09.980 --> 00:06:11.840 One that you're not really familiar with. 107 00:06:13.340 --> 00:06:16.560 Tiny little ideas just to add spice to your life. 108 00:06:17.100 --> 00:06:20.400 That's what life is all about. Adding a little bit of spice here and there. 109 00:06:20.974 --> 00:06:27.315 Don't make it the everyday. Another way to make, your life full of joy is to add love 110 00:06:27.775 --> 00:06:28.514 to yourself 111 00:06:29.775 --> 00:06:32.115 and others. Be kind to others. 112 00:06:32.895 --> 00:06:38.960 The saying do unto others as you would have them do unto you becomes so true, because if you're 113 00:06:39.900 --> 00:06:40.880 giving others 114 00:06:41.420 --> 00:06:46.080 a kind word, a kind message, a kind feeling, a feeling full of love, 115 00:06:46.695 --> 00:06:50.635 and you're giving that to them, it then boomerangs back to you. 116 00:06:50.935 --> 00:06:55.915 So you feel the joy and the love that you're giving to them because it's coming back to you. 117 00:06:56.935 --> 00:07:01.514 Another thing is you gotta live in the now. Live in the present. 118 00:07:01.930 --> 00:07:05.310 Because if you're saying, Oh, well, you know, I can't do that. 119 00:07:05.930 --> 00:07:09.949 I'm worried about what might happen in the future. That's just going to hold you back. 120 00:07:10.330 --> 00:07:13.870 So if you focus on living in the now, living in the present, 121 00:07:15.185 --> 00:07:18.465 who cares about what's going to happen down the road? 122 00:07:18.465 --> 00:07:23.045 Because if you were worried about what's going on in the future, you'll never get there. 123 00:07:23.585 --> 00:07:27.840 If you live in the now, you will always be there. Live in the now, 124 00:07:28.320 --> 00:07:30.980 Take that risk. Do whatever it is that you feel 125 00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.460 good and joyful doing. 126 00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:39.280 And the other thing is this is going to help you fill your bucket list. We've all heard of this. 127 00:07:39.280 --> 00:07:42.500 In fact, I think there was even a movie about it called The Bucket List. 128 00:07:42.845 --> 00:07:50.384 Fill that bucket list create that bucket list what are all the amazing things you've always wanted to do places you've always wanted to see 129 00:07:51.164 --> 00:07:52.145 crazy things 130 00:07:52.525 --> 00:07:55.104 just write them down create that bucket list 131 00:07:56.460 --> 00:08:01.420 Exotic lands and adventures that you never would have thought possible. Write it down. 132 00:08:01.420 --> 00:08:04.720 Things that you just really want to do that really excite you. 133 00:08:05.500 --> 00:08:06.480 Write that down. 134 00:08:06.860 --> 00:08:07.680 And ideally, 135 00:08:08.455 --> 00:08:09.995 behave like that quote unquote 136 00:08:10.375 --> 00:08:11.675 ideal self. 137 00:08:12.294 --> 00:08:18.235 Focus on happiness. What is it that's going to make you happy? And act like that every single day. 138 00:08:18.615 --> 00:08:21.835 How are you going to make yourself happy by 139 00:08:22.300 --> 00:08:24.479 sitting in your chair and doing nothing? 140 00:08:25.180 --> 00:08:29.759 How do you make yourself happy? You go out and you have fun. Make yourself 141 00:08:30.060 --> 00:08:34.640 joyful. Go out and intend to find joy and be joyful. 142 00:08:35.020 --> 00:08:36.880 Make your life full of joy. 143 00:08:37.554 --> 00:08:38.375 Whether that's 144 00:08:38.755 --> 00:08:39.255 ziplining 145 00:08:39.795 --> 00:08:40.934 into some beautiful 146 00:08:41.554 --> 00:08:42.455 blue green 147 00:08:44.035 --> 00:08:46.855 oasis or some kind of pool in the jungle, 148 00:08:47.235 --> 00:08:52.135 or whether that's sailing on some beautiful boat in crystal clear water, 149 00:08:52.580 --> 00:08:55.560 or taking a trip to, let's say, beautiful 150 00:08:56.020 --> 00:08:57.480 Greek islands or something. 151 00:08:58.100 --> 00:08:59.080 Whatever it is, 152 00:08:59.460 --> 00:08:59.960 whatever 153 00:09:00.580 --> 00:09:04.275 adventure is something that calls to you, make sure that you are 154 00:09:04.755 --> 00:09:07.975 taking that adventure. You're going to an exotic, 155 00:09:09.075 --> 00:09:12.215 place or adventure that's going to fill your life. 156 00:09:13.635 --> 00:09:20.890 And, what you ultimately are trying to do is you're trying to live every single day of your life like it's the last day of your life. 157 00:09:21.110 --> 00:09:23.850 Make it full of joy and adventure and fun. 158 00:09:24.710 --> 00:09:29.370 You know, you're focused on happiness. You're focused on adventure in life. 159 00:09:30.115 --> 00:09:32.995 And it doesn't have to be, you know, full of risk. 160 00:09:32.995 --> 00:09:36.375 And it doesn't have to be, Oh my gosh, I'm going to hurt myself. 161 00:09:36.755 --> 00:09:37.975 No, it has to be 162 00:09:38.355 --> 00:09:41.815 something that's just different. Make every day different. Make every day 163 00:09:42.129 --> 00:09:46.209 full of adventure and joy and bliss because that's really what you're here for. 164 00:09:46.209 --> 00:09:49.350 That's what you're trying to learn. That's why you're doing all this. 165 00:09:50.129 --> 00:09:52.470 Eleanor Roosevelt had a fantastic quotation. 166 00:09:53.089 --> 00:09:55.189 The purpose of life after all 167 00:09:55.649 --> 00:09:56.949 is to live it. 168 00:09:57.495 --> 00:09:58.635 To taste experience 169 00:09:59.015 --> 00:09:59.915 to the utmost, 170 00:10:00.935 --> 00:10:02.235 to reach out eagerly 171 00:10:02.615 --> 00:10:05.435 and without fear for newer and richer 172 00:10:06.055 --> 00:10:06.555 experience. 173 00:10:09.550 --> 00:10:12.130 Read that entire quotation again to yourself, 174 00:10:13.070 --> 00:10:13.810 and understand 175 00:10:14.750 --> 00:10:18.690 what Eleanor Roosevelt meant when she said that. 176 00:10:19.230 --> 00:10:21.570 It is such a perfect quotation, 177 00:10:22.270 --> 00:10:25.454 and it really gets to the the heart what I've been trying to say. 178 00:10:27.274 --> 00:10:33.535 And what I've been mentioning is that Spirit truly does come back and say the very same things. 179 00:10:34.074 --> 00:10:36.175 Because quite often, as I mentioned earlier, 180 00:10:36.640 --> 00:10:39.940 during medium trip readings that I give to clients, 181 00:10:40.880 --> 00:10:45.300 Spirit comes back to say that they wish they had lived their life 182 00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:51.459 to a fuller extent. They wish they had done more things that would have given their 183 00:10:51.885 --> 00:10:54.385 experience in their life a richer experience. 184 00:10:54.765 --> 00:10:55.745 They're imploring 185 00:10:56.285 --> 00:11:00.225 their loved ones to live a life that is, 186 00:11:01.005 --> 00:11:03.265 full of deep, rich meaning. 187 00:11:04.045 --> 00:11:06.225 They are always coming back to their 188 00:11:06.850 --> 00:11:10.230 loved ones and urging them to live a full life. 189 00:11:11.170 --> 00:11:14.710 They're urging them to live their life to the fullest. Why would they do that? 190 00:11:15.090 --> 00:11:18.630 Because they're now seeing it from twenty twenty hindsight. 191 00:11:19.170 --> 00:11:20.070 They're saying, 192 00:11:20.605 --> 00:11:24.785 This is the mistake I made. Don't make the same mistake that I just made. 193 00:11:25.485 --> 00:11:28.545 And sometimes Spirit describes the fact that 194 00:11:29.085 --> 00:11:31.505 they do regret not having lived 195 00:11:31.885 --> 00:11:35.990 their life to the fullest. They do wish that they had lived their life, 196 00:11:36.610 --> 00:11:37.750 with more joy, 197 00:11:38.130 --> 00:11:39.510 more bliss, more 198 00:11:39.970 --> 00:11:41.090 adventure, more, 199 00:11:41.570 --> 00:11:42.070 exotic 200 00:11:42.530 --> 00:11:45.975 experiences. And, they come back and they specifically say those things. 201 00:11:45.975 --> 00:11:50.055 And they're encouraging their loved ones here in the physical to avoid that mistake. 202 00:11:50.055 --> 00:11:51.514 They're saying, hey, you know, 203 00:11:51.815 --> 00:11:55.435 don't make the same mistake I made. Live your life to the fullest. 204 00:11:56.375 --> 00:12:01.435 Because ultimately if you're living your life to the fullest and you're filling your life with joy, 205 00:12:01.910 --> 00:12:06.970 that joy is going to be felt by other people. It's gonna you're gonna impact others by doing that. 206 00:12:07.430 --> 00:12:07.930 Because 207 00:12:08.870 --> 00:12:11.690 your life that's full of joy, 208 00:12:11.990 --> 00:12:12.810 that joy 209 00:12:13.110 --> 00:12:16.090 is felt by so many other people it becomes contagious. 210 00:12:16.725 --> 00:12:19.865 It's like laughter, right? When you're laughing hysterically 211 00:12:20.485 --> 00:12:21.944 others begin to, 212 00:12:22.644 --> 00:12:23.144 laugh. 213 00:12:23.685 --> 00:12:27.305 Joy is just as contagious as laughter and it's a good contagion. 214 00:12:27.845 --> 00:12:29.384 It's not like we need a 215 00:12:29.845 --> 00:12:33.880 shot to prevent it. This is the kind of thing that we do want, to spread. 216 00:12:34.339 --> 00:12:38.760 Joy is a beautiful thing to spread. It's a great thing to have effect on others. 217 00:12:38.899 --> 00:12:40.920 So make your joy felt by others. 218 00:12:41.620 --> 00:12:43.320 Because by living your life 219 00:12:44.180 --> 00:12:44.680 joyfully, 220 00:12:45.885 --> 00:12:47.105 with happiness, 221 00:12:48.525 --> 00:12:51.345 with glee, and living your life to the fullest 222 00:12:52.525 --> 00:12:56.465 helped you to step outside of your own limitations. 223 00:12:56.845 --> 00:13:00.145 It allows you to say I feel really good. 224 00:13:00.640 --> 00:13:07.380 And not only does that help other people, but that allows you the energy and the bliss to go and help other people. 225 00:13:07.760 --> 00:13:10.820 This is a perfect example where somebody is feeling 226 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:16.065 that they're so happy they now can go out and be a volunteer for somebody else. 227 00:13:17.825 --> 00:13:18.325 So 228 00:13:18.705 --> 00:13:23.365 work with that, and you can step beyond yourself to help others in need. 229 00:13:24.465 --> 00:13:31.285 And ultimately, when you're feeling joyful, you really want to start helping other people because you're so full of bliss. 230 00:13:31.430 --> 00:13:38.649 Not only do you feel great and you want to share that feeling with others, but you then start wanting to help other people as a result of this. 231 00:13:39.829 --> 00:13:40.329 Because 232 00:13:40.709 --> 00:13:41.209 ultimately, 233 00:13:41.670 --> 00:13:44.170 this is getting to the point that I've been trying to make, 234 00:13:44.714 --> 00:13:48.735 with this feeling of bliss, with this feeling of happiness, with this feeling of 235 00:13:49.115 --> 00:13:51.774 living your life to the fullest, as a result, 236 00:13:52.795 --> 00:13:54.495 you feel like you're unstoppable. 237 00:13:55.115 --> 00:14:00.459 You can make a real impact in the world and thus you can improve the world 238 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:02.379 with your perspective 239 00:14:02.839 --> 00:14:06.860 of joy, happiness, and living your life to the fullest. Now, here's a warning. 240 00:14:07.560 --> 00:14:15.755 If you keep on living your life to the fullest, and you keep on filling it with adventure and glee, and happiness, 241 00:14:16.615 --> 00:14:18.075 you may not want to stop. 242 00:14:19.095 --> 00:14:23.275 Granted, that's a good thing. But just a note that 243 00:14:23.895 --> 00:14:25.195 it builds on itself. 244 00:14:25.700 --> 00:14:30.680 The more joy and positivity that you live in your life, and the more that you live your life to the fullest, 245 00:14:31.380 --> 00:14:34.600 the less you're going to want to stop because it's going to be addictive. 246 00:14:34.740 --> 00:14:37.640 You're going to want more and more of it. That's a good thing. 247 00:14:39.425 --> 00:14:40.485 So, in this lesson, 248 00:14:41.265 --> 00:14:42.165 number three, 249 00:14:43.025 --> 00:14:45.365 you're seeing that you've 250 00:14:45.825 --> 00:14:49.205 learned all about the purpose of life, which is joy. 251 00:14:49.745 --> 00:14:51.205 And you're realizing 252 00:14:51.585 --> 00:14:53.285 that joy is giving you 253 00:14:53.670 --> 00:14:58.410 a context. It's giving you something to compare and contrast to. 254 00:14:58.470 --> 00:15:02.970 And also you're realizing that Spirit urges us to focus on joy. 255 00:15:03.430 --> 00:15:06.730 And by living your life to the fullest, ultimately you're giving 256 00:15:07.515 --> 00:15:09.455 others in the world joy. 257 00:15:11.835 --> 00:15:14.895 So I'm urging you to take action now. 258 00:15:15.515 --> 00:15:17.615 Decide what's most important to you. 259 00:15:19.035 --> 00:15:20.975 Do that list what we were talking about. 260 00:15:21.770 --> 00:15:23.630 Move outside of your comfort zone. 261 00:15:23.850 --> 00:15:28.270 It's really about risk, but ultimately what you're doing is you're also focusing on 262 00:15:28.650 --> 00:15:32.170 your bucket list. The things that you've always wanted to do. 263 00:15:32.170 --> 00:15:36.110 The things that are gonna give you that joy, give you that pleasure, give you that, 264 00:15:37.225 --> 00:15:37.725 glee. 265 00:15:38.265 --> 00:15:44.045 If you create that bucket list and you start saying to yourself, These are the things I want to do, and I want to do them pretty soon. 266 00:15:44.505 --> 00:15:47.245 All of a sudden your life takes on a completely different perspective. 267 00:15:47.385 --> 00:15:50.365 It doesn't matter whether you're young or old, 268 00:15:51.709 --> 00:15:55.389 wealthy or poor. Doesn't matter who you are, what you are. 269 00:15:55.389 --> 00:15:59.970 It's you've everybody's got a bucket list. Everybody's got a list of things that they want to do. 270 00:16:00.110 --> 00:16:05.170 So do it. Create that list and start checking off those things on your bucket list. 271 00:16:05.365 --> 00:16:07.545 Start checking them off and start saying, okay. Hey. 272 00:16:08.565 --> 00:16:11.925 Today I did this. And they can again, this bucket list can even be small. 273 00:16:11.925 --> 00:16:15.625 It can be like things around the house. It can be things around, you know, your family. 274 00:16:15.685 --> 00:16:16.985 Like, today I 275 00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:18.380 took a new 276 00:16:18.760 --> 00:16:23.100 route. Today I went on a new trail that I didn't know much about. 277 00:16:23.640 --> 00:16:25.420 Whatever it is just do it now 278 00:16:25.800 --> 00:16:30.700 and start behaving like today's the last day of your life. Start making the day 279 00:16:31.245 --> 00:16:33.585 really worthwhile and filled with joy. 280 00:16:34.125 --> 00:16:38.685 And if you do nothing else just come up with that list of things that you'd really love to do. 281 00:16:38.685 --> 00:16:43.905 Focus on the things you love to do. Focus on things and put a smile on your face and go do them. 282 00:16:44.630 --> 00:16:50.970 Because where there's a will there's a way, and if you do that you're really going to start to see a big difference in your life. 283 00:16:52.709 --> 00:16:53.769 So in this 284 00:16:54.070 --> 00:17:01.335 next lesson that's coming up you're going to see how that you can serve others just by focusing 285 00:17:01.955 --> 00:17:03.575 your efforts and by focusing 286 00:17:03.955 --> 00:17:07.815 on your personal joy because again that's gonna rub off on others. 287 00:17:08.355 --> 00:17:12.055 You're also gonna see that we're all connected. You're gonna see that, 288 00:17:12.435 --> 00:17:16.800 that's gonna have an impact on your actions because as you begin to realize 289 00:17:17.260 --> 00:17:18.400 that we're all connected, 290 00:17:19.020 --> 00:17:20.000 what you do 291 00:17:20.380 --> 00:17:22.960 to others is ultimately what you're gonna do to yourself. 292 00:17:23.820 --> 00:17:29.895 And, that's gonna be something where you're gonna start saying to yourself, Gosh, I really feel good about serving other people 293 00:17:30.275 --> 00:17:33.175 because not only am I helping them, but I'm also helping myself. 294 00:17:33.715 --> 00:17:36.055 And I can see the impact that I'm making. 295 00:17:36.835 --> 00:17:38.535 And while it sounds 296 00:17:39.235 --> 00:17:44.135 so noble, it actually is just something that you hope others are doing for you as well. 297 00:17:44.750 --> 00:17:47.170 It's, just a it's a love of service 298 00:17:47.710 --> 00:17:49.650 and it contributes to your joy 299 00:17:50.190 --> 00:17:54.930 because the more that you see the results of what you're doing for other people, 300 00:17:55.790 --> 00:17:59.855 even if it's just getting them to smile, even if it's getting them, 301 00:18:00.794 --> 00:18:02.894 to say thank you, or even if you know 302 00:18:03.274 --> 00:18:06.335 that somehow, somewhere, deep inside them, 303 00:18:06.635 --> 00:18:08.414 they're thankful in some way, 304 00:18:08.794 --> 00:18:10.335 it just makes your heart swell. 305 00:18:10.930 --> 00:18:14.470 And the example I would use a thousand times is whenever I've been 306 00:18:14.850 --> 00:18:16.310 volunteering at a soup kitchen, 307 00:18:17.010 --> 00:18:20.230 when somebody just says thank you for some food, 308 00:18:22.130 --> 00:18:27.335 the impact it makes to me, I'm just like, oh my gosh. They're thanking me for food? 309 00:18:27.335 --> 00:18:31.515 Just for serving the food? Holy smokes. It is it's mind boggling. 310 00:18:32.135 --> 00:18:38.049 Just things like that. So service is so incredible. So I will see you in the next lesson. So 311 00:18:38.429 --> 00:18:39.629 until then, I will, 312 00:18:40.429 --> 00:18:42.529 see you next time. Bye bye for now.
