Like, go around and just go out into public and look at all these different people.

Everybody's making money a different way.

And that's one way to kind of expand your perception and be like, wow, yeah.

there are an infinite different number of ways for money to come to you.

And I remember I had, it was from this hypnosis track and it was like, money comes to me in expected and unexpected ways.

And I started to open my mind to maybe you don't have to always work so hard for it.

Maybe it can come to you and

unexpected ways.

And maybe my energy has a lot to do with it.

And I remember one morning after waking up to one of those tracks, going outside and finding like a $20 bill on the railroad tracks outside of my apartment and being like, whoa, maybe this is actually the way that it is.

And then over time, kind of building that belief muscle to where now these are new stripes that are familiar to my brain and this is what I see.

And then kind of on that predictive processing note that you were

kind of getting at there is, yeah, so your brain isn't just constructing based on the information.

It actually holds a model of the world, right, based on your past.

And then it uses that model to predict your present and your future, right?

And so it's not necessarily using your senses to construct reality right now.

It's using your senses to kind of update the model and the prediction that it's already made about your experience right now.

And so...

Yeah, I mean, I do kind of refer to the brain as a prediction machine and that it's always predicting what's going to happen through predictive processing.

And so when you start to update these predictions, then you kind of start through, you know, training your perception, everything that I was just talking about, then you actually start to experience reality differently.
