So Wayne Dyer said this to me when he was alive.
I met him at one point and we became dear friends, but he said to me, Ed, you're going to change the world.
And I'm sure he said that to tons of other guys.
But to me, I was the only guy he ever said it to.
And he said, and it's not because of your talent or the fact that God gave you a pretty deep voice or you're a smart guy or whatever, of which I'm not.
He said, I just think you have a beautiful heart and you intend to serve people.
You intend to make a difference.
You're a good man.
It was the first time in my life, James, that someone gave me a compliment I believed.
Because I didn't think I was very talented.
I don't think I'm that smart.
But I do think I'm a decent man.
And when he attached my ability to do something to my intent and not necessarily the skill, I believed it.
And so he said, all your life, if you'd attach your confidence when you walk in a room to your intentions.
That's what I picture in you, James.
When you walk up to Tom Cruise, even though that one was staged, but whoever it is, anywhere.
I don't think you're walking up there confident like, I'm a badass, I'm the best ever.
I think you're walking up there with an intention to learn about them, an intention to learn yourself, an intention to transfer that information to your audience.
So I think your confidence is stemming from, I'm here to do good.
And so I think confidence is more that than I used to.
