Manifesting Massive Transformation

Today, what I want to do with you is I want to introduce you to a model that is powerful in being able to make massive and lasting transformation in your life. This model is actually quite simple, but it will take so many of your beliefs, and it's going to flip them on their head.

The model is called the have, do, be model, the have, do, be model. Now have refers to the having of possessions, to having of things. Most people in the world operate with a model of having, they operate with a model of accumulating. Their beliefs go something like this. I'm not happy right now, but if I could just have certain things in my life, then I would be happy and so they have an idea of what that is. It could be if I have a new job, if I have a job. If I have $100,000 in the bank, if I get accepted to a school, if I have a girlfriend or a wife, if I have a new car, if I have a million dollars in the bank, if I get a new tattoo, if I get a new house, if I get a new watch. All these sorts of things, we have this belief that if we can just have these things, then everything in our life will change and we'll be happy and if you look at most people, they are in the pursuit of having things. What's important to understand is they really don't want the thing. What they really want is the feeling that they think that they will have, or they will get when they acquire the possession, when they acquire the thing. It goes something like this, if I could just have $10 million, then I would be happy, I'd be set. Then I get $10 million and when I get $10 million, it feels great for a week or a month, something like that, but then pretty soon, life is back to normal. I might have 10 million in the bank, but I still have all the same emotions, I still have the same issues. They're all there. I'm living under a false pretense thinking the money is going to solve my problem, or the thing is gonna solve the problem. If 10 million didn't do it, well, then certainly 20 million would do it right? If I had a new Camry, Toyota Camry, and that didn't make me happy, well, obviously, if I could go get a Lexus, that would make me happy, but then I get the Lexus and that didn't do it. Then I'm like, well, maybe I just maybe I need a Ferrari, that would do it and you go on down the line. People end up chasing things, but they're never happy. They always want more. So if you go down this road long enough, you'll start to figure out that no, these things are not going to bring you happiness. Then what people do is they shift. They said, well, having a new house and a hot wife, and being able to go on vacation, and great body, these things didn't make me happy.

Well, if having things that make me happy, well, then maybe if I do things that will make me happy. Right, so I get fired up, I get really disciplined and I say, Okay, I'm gonna get up early every morning, I'm gonna get up at 5am and I'm going to work out because if I get up at 5 AM, and I work out every day, then I will feel great and oh, and I'm going to meditate, and I'm going to journal. Oh, I'm going to eat well, and then I'll be home at six o'clock and I always take Saturday's off and so they start to have this belief that if I do things, then I will be happy. Now in the doing of things, doing does have some benefits. It does bring a sense of discipline, or routine, there are benefits in it, but oftentimes, when people engage in doing to try and make themselves happy, they just start to feel exhausted and disillusioned, because they think the answer is well, if doing something helped me, I'll do more and the more I do, eventually, I get into a rhythm that my schedule is unrealistic. It is unattainable with any kind of consistency. Then I started to beat myself up when I don't get up at 5am or I beat myself up when I don't eat well or I beat myself when I miss a workout, and now instead of being happy, I'm feeling guilty, I'm feeling exhausted, and I'm feeling tired. The doing doesn't work either.

That brings us to the be. Remember, I said, we don't actually want things, we want the feeling that we think we're going to have when we get that thing. Well, when we look at the be, what makes us amazing as human beings is we have the power of imagination, we have the power to close our eyes and just imagine ourselves in a situation where we can picture everything around us. Think of a moment where you did that. Have you ever been in a position where you meditated or you closed your eyes, you dozed off, you're having a vivid dream and you could not determine that you were actually having a dream, or you're actually in meditation, because everything around you seemed real? In fact, it was so real that when you actually came out of it, you were startled by where you were. Feeling that when you came back to reality, it wasn't real. Yeah, this is what happens. This is the power of imagination. We have the ability to close our eyes, and whatever it is that we want, whoever it is that we want to be, we can imagine that we are that person, right now. That feeling that we wanted, that feeling of love, that feeling of confidence, that feeling of certainty, we can feel that right now. We have the choice of feeling it before we ever have it and by doing so we bring it to us. See, being affects us at the identity level. Because we are being who we want to be and when we assume the identity of who it is we want to be, we put the law of attraction in the world on our side. Because when we choose to be something, we actually change the energy of our body, we change the vibration of our body and we begin to attract to us all the things that somebody who was being this would have. Instead of me having to have $10 million, I could act, how would I act if I had 10 million and I can start to act that way right now? So if I had $10 million, how would I live my life when when I get up? What would I do with my days? Who would I hang out with? What resources would I have? How would I take care of myself? I could start to picture all of these things and then I could actually go and build my life around who I would be if I had $10 million. Now every day I'm going about my life acting as if I have $10 million and guess what, when I act as if somebody who has $10 million, the world outside begins to perceive me as somebody who has $10 million, they don't know the difference. They start to perceive me as this and because they perceive me as such, I start drawing to me all of the things that somebody would $10 million would have. Better relationships, better business deals, better health, better education, better information, it will naturally flow to you.

I want to share something with you. This is a hierarchy of beliefs. We have 1000s and 1000s of beliefs that we have inside of us. Many of these beliefs we're aware of, many more are beliefs that were completely oblivious to. In this hierarchy, at the top we have environmental beliefs. Environmental beliefs are just beliefs about everything around you. A great example is do you drink bottled water or do you drink tap water? Well, if you drink bottled water all the time, you have one set of beliefs and if you drink tap water, you have another set of beliefs. You may have never thought of it this way, but these beliefs are driving why you drink a bottle of water and even what brand. Some of you drink alkalized water, high PH water, some of you drink regular water that's cheap. Some of you drink flavored water. Well you have beliefs about this. Those of you who drink tap water you have your own set of beliefs, probably a lot of our own money. Why would I ever pay for a bottle of water when I get it free from the sink? Or free from water fountain? Right. These are environmental beliefs and you have 1000s of environmental beliefs. Then, as we go down a level from environmental beliefs, we move into behavioral beliefs, behavior, beliefs, our beliefs around how you and people around you should behave. For example, if I were to meet you for the first time, what would we do? On my mind, I would put out my hand and I would enthusiastically shake your hand and say, Hi, I'm Chuck, it's nice to meet you. What's your name? That's a belief I have about how I should introduce myself to you. You have a similar belief. Okay, so these are behavior beliefs that regulate how I behave and how I expect you to behave.

Then we go down to capability, beliefs. Capability, beliefs are about what am I capable of? What are my skills? What skills do I need to have? Do I need to be great at math? Do I need to be great at understanding charts? Do I need to be great at understanding fundamentals? These are beliefs about my capability. Most people, when they want to get better, they focus on their capability beliefs. If I take a class, if I read a book, if I watch a YouTube video, they're going to make me more capable. Then we move down into values and values are what are the things that I value in life? Is it spirituality in relationship with God? Is it love of my spouse? Love of My children? Is it my health? Is it integrity? Is it honesty? Is it being fun loving? Is it being truthful? There's all these different values and these values, regulate your behavior. Your values will drive your capability and your values will drive your behavioral beliefs. Now below values we get into identity beliefs, identity beliefs, answer the question, Who am I? In identity beliefs, I say things like, I am a trader, I am a great husband, I am a great father, I am an athlete, I am an unconditionally loved child of God. I am healthy. I am a smoker, I am a drinker. I am a nonsmoker. I am someone who eats sweets, I'm somebody who makes smart food choices, see where this goes? All these start with I am and they are incredibly powerful.

When we use this have, do, be model and we go in and we embrace the be, what we're doing is we're going in and we are shifting our identity beliefs. In our identity beliefs are really driven by our parents, and situations when were children. Things other kids said to us, the environments we're in, who our teachers were, who our mentors were, but by and large, they are really driven by your parents. You take your parents beliefs, you take their identity and you make it your own. That's what a lot of times family does. Then we go through life being completely unaware that this is even the case. What we're doing here is we're calling to awareness of what your beliefs about yourself are and through the have, do, be model, you have the ability to adopt a new identity, a new frame, and you can do it and an instant. Now you may have to remind yourself, may have to come back to it, but you can adopt the belief that I am healthy, that I am strong, that I am a great husband, that I am a fantastic trader, I can adapt these beliefs anytime and they immediately begin to shift who I am. This is one of the most powerful things you can do for yourself. There is another element to this that I will share with you next week and trader Tip Tuesday, but for right now, focus on your identity and the have, do, be. As you know, I come to you every Tuesday with tips like this to help you take your performance to elite level. You want to take your performance to elite level, assume that you are elite. I'll see you next week.
