00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:33.159
At the end of the day, it's not about what
9
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:36.479
you have or even what you've accomplished. It's about what
10
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:40.039
you've done with those accomplishments. It's about who you've lifted up,
11
00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:43.679
who you've made better. It's about what you've given back.

to elevate the lives of others and to inspire you
14
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:52.159

15
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:54.000
Randy, Welcome to the show.
16
00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:55.840
Hello, Doug, good to be here with you.
17
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:59.119
Hey, I'm excited it's this is going to be an
18
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:02.880
interesting conversation. You know, you've written a book that I
19
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.840
find has such an important element and I'd like for
20
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:08.120
you to share with the audience number one of the
21
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.640
name of the book, but even going back further than that,
22
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:12.799
you know you've done a lot of things, tell a
23
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:16.319
little bit about your background, and then what was that
24
00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:21.319
moment where you decided to write that book, what ultimately
25
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:22.159
inspired that?
26
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:27.280
Well, my background, I'm a I'm educated as a physicist
27
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:31.640
and a mechanical engineer with multiple patents I've had. Let's
28
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:34.439
go back to nineteen eighty nine. I had multiple businesses,
29
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:39.799
multiple multimillion dollar businesses. I was successful, but I wasn't
30
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:46.000
completely happy and fulfilled. And about that time, nineteen eighty nine,
31
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:48.519
many thirty five years ago, I met a woman I
32
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.519
spent three years with who opened my eyes to the
33
00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.760
spiritual emotional side of life. Thirty plus years later, I
34
00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:57.000
decided to write a book.
35
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.280
After a whole I'm skipping a lot here, after a
36
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.200
a whole lot of lessons and a whole lot of
37
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:05.879
insights and experiences, I wrote a book, The Third Element,
38
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:10.240
which is all about how anybody here on a human
39
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:13.719
path can understand the rules of the game of life
40
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.599
better and can find ways to improve their life by
41
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:21.199
making some small changes and by changing their approach to
42
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:23.599
their thoughts, their actions and their emotions.
43
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:26.360
And you do get into the law of attraction, don't
44
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:26.800
you a bit?
45
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:32.960
Well, my belief as a physicist, understanding resonance, understanding energy
46
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:37.680
down to a sub nuclear level, and Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
47
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:42.280
It says that energy does not become matter until it's observed,
48
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:46.400
and the law of attraction co creates our reality with us.
49
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:50.400
Every moment of every day, we walk into a new possibility,
50
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:53.680
and we do that through the law of attraction. God
51
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.000
has no rules for us except when we respond from
52
00:02:57.039 --> 00:02:59.159
a place of love and caring. We find an answer
53
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.759
a lot faster, a lasting answer, okay, and a lot
54
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:05.599
of attractions. So there's no expectation, there's no judgment.
55
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:06.080
He says.
56
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:08.360
You go think whatever you want and I'll reflect it
57
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:10.599
back to you. You take what actions you want with
58
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:12.960
your body and the world around you, and I'll reflect
59
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.879
it back to you. And whatever emotions you have that
60
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:19.000
you're feeling now or are left over you didn't feel
61
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:22.240
completely in the past, I will reflect all this back
62
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:24.520
to you. And when you understand the rules, then we
63
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:29.479
can we can guide our thoughts, guide our actions, and
64
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:32.319
work through our old emotional ones and create an amazing life.
65
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:34.400
And that's what I've experienced, and that's why I wrote
66
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:36.280
the book. Is I want other people to be able
67
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.120
to have a wonderful life too well.
68
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.199
And you know, it's interesting you bring up to I
69
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:43.680
think really important points. You know. I interviewed someone just
70
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:47.560
yesterday and we were talking about success, and I said,
71
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:50.280
all right, I want a definition of success. And the
72
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:54.759
whole story was extremely financially successful, all right, the cars,
73
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.520
the house, about whatever, but not happy. And you're kind
74
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.800
of explaining the same thing here. You have multimillion dollar companies,
75
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:06.360
you're extremely quote successful, and yet you're not happy. And
76
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:09.159
you know, we get into the law of attraction. We
77
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.319
get back to the original movie The Secret, and and
78
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.639
I thought before, you know, before we got on, I thought,
79
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.160
you know what, I years ago, I had interviewed someone
80
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:23.519
who I can't even remember apologize, that talked about the
81
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:26.800
fact that they discovered after being involved in the movie
82
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:29.040
this secret, that there were some other elements that had
83
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:32.360
been missing. And so I actually went on chat GPT
84
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:36.040
this morning and I said, Okay, what are some of
85
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.800
the elements that are missing that the members of that
86
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:43.079
movie have talked about since? And I've got an incredible
87
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:47.439
list of things that have to be added for someone,
88
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:49.000
you know, because I think there's so many people that
89
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:51.319
just sit and have their board up there, and you
90
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:54.199
know this is there what they want to manifest, and
91
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:57.279
yet they don't experience it. And I think you hit
92
00:04:57.399 --> 00:04:59.759
on one of the keys because it didn't mention exactly
93
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.839
what you're talking about is the emotional part of that.
94
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:05.360
And so I'd love for you to kind of talk
95
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.639
about you know, first of all, define spirituality for the audience,
96
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.439
because everybody has different different definitions, so let's make sure
97
00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:15.120
we're at the correct groundwork care.
98
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:19.680
So to me, spirituality means embracing the part of our
99
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:23.199
human experience that is of spirit. So when we say
100
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:27.560
we are human beings, human to me being our human body,
101
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:32.839
our human mind, and beings being that undefinable beingness that
102
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:35.959
is a spark of divine consciousness of a part of
103
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:39.000
our soul, is a part of God of all that
104
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:41.959
is at the deepest level, and that is a part
105
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:45.519
of our experience here and for me, being the path
106
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:50.759
of spirituality is seeking out to experience more of that higher,
107
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:55.240
more pure part of us that's actually a part of God,
108
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.680
the Creator. And to be a human being is a
109
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:02.560
balance between the human separateness from all it is and
110
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:06.399
the beingness of the embodiment of the love of all
111
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:09.160
that is and our and the power of God and
112
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:12.199
our soul that can come through us and be part
113
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:13.480
of our human experience.
114
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:18.319
Okay, excellent, excellent. So here's my question. You know you're
115
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:20.680
talking about emotions. I'd like for you to share it,
116
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:24.519
expand a little bit about why emotions are so important,
117
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:26.439
and then we'll even get a little bit deeper on that.
118
00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.360
But let's talk about emotions because I know that that
119
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:31.680
is something that you really focus on your book.
120
00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:34.120
So I'm very big believer in our thoughts and our
121
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:37.079
actions as law of attraction. But to me, it's like
122
00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.360
a three legged stool. I can sit on a three
123
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:41.639
legged stool and I'm fine, but if I take one
124
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:43.959
of the legs away, I'm going to tip over. It's
125
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:46.879
just not going to work. So everything in the universe
126
00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:50.319
fits into one of three categories our thoughts, our physical world,
127
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.120
or our emotion. And so when I was twenty eight
128
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:55.000
years old and I was looking for success, I was
129
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.040
educating myself and I was working hard because I only
130
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:02.120
knew of two of the categories or elements of the
131
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:08.160
human experience. Once I stumbled across an experience, that's where
132
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:11.319
I healed an emotional wound, and I saw the material
133
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.839
world around me change clearly, and I made the connection.
134
00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:18.839
And then I experimented more with Okay, here's an outside irritation,
135
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:20.879
and I'm going to work with the emotion, and I
136
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:24.759
saw the connection between emotional healing and the physical world changing.
137
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:27.439
Then I made the correlation, and I thought through it
138
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:30.399
as a scientist would, and I come down. I came
139
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:35.639
back to the law of attraction and sympathetic vibration, which
140
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:39.600
means things that vibrate similarly are attracted to each other.
141
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:42.560
So our thoughts have energy, our physical body and our
142
00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.079
actions have energy, and our emotions have energy, and that
143
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:49.839
vibrational energy through harmonics interacts with the law of attraction,
144
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:52.720
and the law of attraction then creates every moment of
145
00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:55.920
our day for us out of infinite possibilities.
146
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.079
Well, and you know, I smile and kind of give
147
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.160
a little bit because I think about how years ago,
148
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:07.079
you know, this whole concept of energy and frequency was
149
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:10.519
kind of the woo woooo. And yet now here I'm
150
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:14.519
talking to you, a highly educated scientist. You know, you've
151
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.000
got Joe Despenza who really focuses on meditation, if you're
152
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:21.839
aware of that. But he's he's got scientists behind him
153
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:25.160
and doctors behind him that are doing major research and
154
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:29.360
validating what he talks about. And so it's fascinating to
155
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:32.000
me that all of a sudden, something that we thought
156
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:34.559
was kind of out there, now who has become a
157
00:08:34.679 --> 00:08:39.200
scientific valid point of that energy and how we put
158
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:41.480
that out there? You know. One of the questions that
159
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:43.559
I have for you, though, and we'll get into this
160
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:47.120
even more, is I remember in my dental practice, okay,
161
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:51.000
I used to focus a small amount on people who
162
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:54.440
had chronic pain, head neck pain, and of course, at
163
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:59.399
that point in time, the dental media called TMJ, you know,
164
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:04.440
or mandibular joint syndrome. And so someone would come into
165
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:06.279
me and say, hey, you know, doctor, I've got two
166
00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:09.799
I've got TMJ. And I wrote, wait a minute, no,
167
00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:12.399
you have two. You've got one on the left side,
168
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:14.120
you've got one on the right side. So tell me
169
00:09:14.159 --> 00:09:17.480
what's your symptoms. And once they told me the symptoms,
170
00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:21.120
I would discover that most of the time it really
171
00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:23.759
didn't have anything to do with that joint. It had
172
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:26.559
everything to do with the with the nerves, It had
173
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:29.480
everything to do with the muscular relationship and that type
174
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:32.320
of thing. So when we talk about emotions and you
175
00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:34.519
bring up the point, and I think it's very valid
176
00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:38.720
that emotions create that energy that create the law of attraction.
177
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.080
The challenge is is what's below those emotions, because all
178
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:45.240
of a sudden I look at events and you know,
179
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:47.039
I see that. In fact, it just happened to me
180
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:49.559
just the other day. Is you know, here's an event.
181
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.600
There's no emotion tied to an event, but I applied,
182
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:57.480
based on my perception, an emotion to that event, and
183
00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:00.879
once I did that, it created all sorts of interesting
184
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.720
experiences for me. So let's talk about a little bit
185
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.039
about that. What are your thoughts about that as far
186
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.279
as what is the basis of those emotions.
187
00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:15.120
So it is, in my opinion and from my experience,
188
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:18.360
emotions are what you said, an event happens, our mind
189
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:20.840
makes up a story about it, and that's done at
190
00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:23.519
a subconscious first brain level as well as in our
191
00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:27.240
conscious brain. So emotions are valid in the moment as
192
00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:30.440
part of our guidance. Now, some people say, oh, emotions
193
00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:32.840
are your guidance system. I want to clarify that an
194
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.159
emotion we feel in the moment we first feel it
195
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:40.200
is a valid guidance towards something good or away from
196
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:42.600
something bad. So we have the thought, we have the
197
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:45.600
observation or experience, we have the thought, we make up
198
00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:49.159
a story, we have the emotional experience that then is
199
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:52.360
designed to drive us towards that thing or drive us
200
00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:54.799
away from that thing. This is from before our prefrontal
201
00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:59.399
cortex's evolved. And so I have this experience of say,
202
00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:01.360
a bad experience, and I'm going to go away from
203
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.600
this problem, and so that energy is designed to drive
204
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.320
my body to take action. Well, now my brain gets
205
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.679
involved and slows me down, and I'm looking around or
206
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:14.440
people going to judge me for my actions? Is this
207
00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:17.000
the best thing to do? And the problem is the
208
00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.159
conscious thinking brain gets in the way of letting the
209
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.679
emotion come through and be experienced and released. So if
210
00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:26.720
I feel twenty say I feel eighty percent of the emotion,
211
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:29.519
but twenty percent of that energy that's designed to move
212
00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:32.399
me towards her way get stuck in my being, in
213
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:35.120
my body and my energy field whatever way. I can't
214
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:37.679
describe that, but I know if my experienced energy is there,
215
00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:40.559
that energy wants to be released. It doesn't want to
216
00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:43.879
stay within me, and that energy that last twenty percent
217
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:47.200
of that emotional guidance message that's stuck in me is
218
00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.759
still vibrating. It's like storing gasoline in a metal can.
219
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:53.320
If I start gasoline in a metal can for twenty years,
220
00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:55.200
I could pour it out and burn it. But I
221
00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:57.360
only have to burn it once and then it's gone.
222
00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:02.000
So emotions are bigger than time and space the mind.
223
00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:04.559
Let me slow down here to put it all together.
224
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:08.159
Our mind is our thinking mind is never in the
225
00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.639
present moment. It's thinking of the past, it's thinking of
226
00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:13.720
the future. It's a stream of thought, and like music,
227
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.200
it has to be played out over time. We can
228
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:18.759
observe in a moment, but that's different than our thinking brain.
229
00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:22.200
So our thinking brain is never in the present moment. Now,
230
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:26.840
our body only exists in the now, and emotions are
231
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:29.399
bigger than time in space. They know no time, but
232
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.679
they have to be experienced through our physical body. So
233
00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:35.639
we store this emotion. It's in our energy field. It
234
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.759
doesn't expire, it doesn't go away, and it continues to
235
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:41.679
attract to us until we find a way to get
236
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:44.639
a bodily feeling sensation to release it.
237
00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:47.639
Well, and we talk about emotional intelligence, and we'll get
238
00:12:47.639 --> 00:12:50.399
into that a little bit, I hope, but again I'm
239
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.759
going to challenge it on something and I may not
