If you aren't achieving the success you want in life, if you don't feel like abundance is flowing,

0:05.2

if you don't feel like you have peace, it's because you are trying to remain in control of everything,

0:11.3

and that's one of your biggest problems. And the moment I stopped trying to control everything

0:15.8

was the exact moment my life actually started to work. It actually started to flow and feel more abundant

0:22.7

because that's what you deserve as well. More abundance, more financial opportunities, better

0:27.8

relationships and real peace. And it all showed up when I learned the power of letting go rather

1:19.4

and I had to learn this the hard way. Hustling without healing first is just spinning your wheels

1:25.6

faster. And I spent years being so disciplined. I was like,

1:31.6

first one up, last one out, working harder, do the extra mile, the extra rep. I was the most

1:36.9

1:43.6

something was off for me.

And the problem wasn't just my work ethic.

1:47.2

It was that I was operating from a place of fear and not from freedom.
