Redefining Success
The lecture today is going to be on how we start the process once we’ve taken a good look at success. We see what success was for us, what success was taught to us to be, what we resonate with and what we don’t, what we wish it to be, and what it has been and maybe what it hasn’t been. We start to look at how we’re going to reorient this, Tenet 3 of Sanctuary, how we’re going to reorient the totality of this in the matricy of our life.

We’re going to do it in Sanctuary. For many of us, we’re going to do it with some plant medicine help. We’re not just going to just do it through pure intention alone, but attention plus the help of plant medicine.

We’re still letting everyone join this morning. We’ll get started. We kicked off the Blue Morpho year over the last two weeks, 2026.

I intend that 2026 be the most successful year in the history of Blue Morpho and in the history of our community and every community member. For me, each and every one of you are a miracle of this creation of this cosmos. Of Source, Universe, God.

Our success is a co-creative process. We’re going to continue to co-create together this year. I have a quick announcement to make.

Lizzy Wassey in the Sacred Valley, our great lineage partner and home, has offered us the opportunity in September to have a private plant medicine week there that will this year be able to include ayahuasca. I’ve talked about it before, but they were not friendly to other ayahuasca experiences and groups, but I got to meet their owners and talk with them. We have permission.

We want this to be a place for community members and people who are in our lineage to come and experience plant medicine. If you look on the website and you see where it says invitation only, I want to formally extend this beautiful invitation to all of you. You guys are part of the invitation people, people who have been part of our community and learning the sanctuary ways and have plant medicine experience are all invited to come to Lizzy Wassey.

It’ll be in September. It’ll be a gathering of everybody who’s seasoned in our lineage and ways and sanctuary practices. It’ll be a mixture of ayahuasca and San Pedro.

It’ll be the first time that we do that at Lizzy Wassey. That’s just a big win for all of us. That’s a big success win to have them be open to us having ayahuasca.

That was a very special win for us. Until then, we’re going to have all of the retreats at the Blue Morpho Lodge. That’s also a huge win for me.

I built the lodge in 2005-2006 with our own hands. It was a labor of love. It was beyond the notion of off-grid.

It was a place that represented our medicine and an epicenter of change. With all the projects we’re launching this year, which are progressing beautifully and is also an expression of success, we’re going to be spending our time there where we have dominion over our environment. It’s easy to have plant medicine there.

Everybody there is part of our retreat group. We don’t have any other tourists in the lodge space with us. Sometimes it’s nice to just have our own container.

It’s allowing our team to really coalesce and gel from the Amazon. It’s always been a dream of mine to be in plant medicine and also in technology at the same time. All that’s happening.

I’m excited about these opportunities through the majority of 2026 to be working entirely from the lodge. You guys are welcome to come if you haven’t experienced the lodge. It’s a really special place for medicine.

It’s strong in just the place itself from so many ceremonies that we’ve done there and the power of spirit that’s there. It’s also a beautiful process to continue in the improvement of it. We’re doing that with the gardens.

It’s just a joy to get to love that space, to love that land, and love that space, and love all the beings that are there. The amount of interplay in the ceremonies with nature is phenomenal. Just phenomenal natural interplay.

That to me is another kind of success when you feel just so connected to everything and nature is playing with you and you’re in full sync with it. The last ceremonies we did over the last couple weeks, in more than half the ceremonies, there were hundreds of lightning and thunders during the ceremonies. Hundreds, not just a few, every three to five seconds just boom, boom, boom, and nature was just playing with that.

It was so good. It’s so energized in ayahuasca here in the plant medicine. That’s already on, but when everything is ionized and everything’s electric, it was just phenomenal, phenomenal.

That’s also another kind of success. Let’s take a moment and center ourselves. Another kind of success for me is the knowledge we have of the universe, the knowledge of Source God creation, the totality of this, not just cosmos, but the known and unknown, and our deep connection with that.

For the first half of my life, I felt isolated and alone. Then in plant medicine, in ayahuasca, I met the presence of what I call God, which for me was everything. It’s right here, it’s through you, it’s everywhere, it’s not isolated, it’s not separate.

I don’t think it’s a debatable concept. I don’t know the right word for it. I try to find the letters and words and sounds that can communicate the awe-inspiring totality of creation of the whole universe.

What if the cosmos is small? What if the cosmos was just like one tiny, tiny little cell of you? Or what if the cosmos is all of it? Either way, it’s just mind-boggling that this is where we are, that in every direction, there’s billions of galaxies in every way, and we find ourselves human here within the earth, in the middle of all of that. So, this deep connection with that. It’s impossible to be unconnected or disconnected, but we feel that way sometimes.

So, when we feel connected, that’s such a win, that’s such a success. Let’s orient ourselves to that feeling. Then for the majority of my life, I was in this duality binary drama, just drama town.

It was just drama, and it wasn’t even that dramatic, it was just drama. It wasn’t even like good drama, it was just drama dragged on and on, this drama. It was little kid drama, it was internal trauma drama, it was my own drama, it was my own egoic drama, it was everyone else’s drama, it was the political drama, the media drama, the Hollywood drama, the entertainment drama, the ayahuasca drama.

There was a lot of drama in ayahuasca. The local down here, cultural drama, they love drama. It was drama.

I got tired of the drama. Then sanctuary happened, and that’s a huge success. Sanctuary is a huge success, because after it, there was a place of peace, just total peace that I could be in, and then I could just deal with my drama, which meant just calm down and down and down, and turn my fear off, and no longer feel so dramatized in my traumatized.

Let’s create sanctuary together, and we align our thoughts with our words, with our awareness, with our intention, with our consciousness. God, Source, Universe, Spirit. Spirit, Source, Universe, God.

Universe, Spirit, Source, God. All the same. It’s within, it’s through, through, and all around.

Within, through, and all around. Universe, Source, God is infinite time, eternal space. The infinite time.

What I’m looking through is time. What I’m seeing is the time. We measure it with the clock, and there’s always a clock time for the time.

We could say it’s right now, it’s right now, it’s right now, it’s right now. I’m looking right through the time. It gives me awareness of space, and this space is eternal, this infinite time, eternal space.

It’s infinite, eternal. We talk directly with it. We know that this Universe through us, through us, is conscious and aware.

We intend into the matter all around us. We intend into it to be self-healing, harmonizing, balancing, grounding, and orienting infinitely, infinitely healing, infinitely harmonizing, infinitely balancing, infinitely grounding, infinitely orienting. I have to let it be that way.

I have to let it be that way. I have to allow myself to be within sanctuary. I let go.

I know that I am infinitely safe, infinitely safe and protected. What if we were just safe, period? We didn’t need any weapons at all. Just safe.

That’s how I visualize this. I’m just safe, that the space around me in all directions is creating for you and for me, right around us. It’s creating safety for us.

We are safe. Universe Source God Spirit is within, through, and all around. Universe Source God is infinite time, eternal space.

Our sanctuary is infinitely self-healing, self-harmonizing, self-balancing, self-grounding, self-orienting for everyone and everything found within it. And we are infinitely safe and protected within Universe Source God. Another measure of success is to be able to lower our fear quotient, how much fear we have going on.

Let’s lower the fear. Take a few breaths. Every next breath we take is another success.

What a thing. It’s one thing to breathe air. It’s another thing to know the air is cosmos.

Wow. Just wow. And things normalize.

Yeah, I’m just breathing the air. What is it? It’s the cosmos. Wow.

To be energized by the cosmos in every breath. Wow. And then to equate that cosmos with God, so we’re breathing God cosmos.

Wow. There’s some gratitude to God for breathing the cosmos, for breathing a little bit of God. Amazing.

Let’s feel. Feel our own bodies, our mass, our presence, our stillness. That’s a kind of success, the ability to feel.

Part of what I learned in the Amazon is that a lot of our success depends on just how we set up everything we do. I could never get everybody to sync to a clock. So if I said, okay, we’re going to start the ceremony at 5 p.m., someone would show up at 5.01, and someone would show up at 4.59, but then I have to go to the toilet at 5.00. And then humans are like, hey, we can start the meeting between 5 and 5.03 and get everybody here.

I said, I want to start the ceremony successfully every time, every time the same. And so we chose an action as the form of success when we bless the ayahuasca and get focused as the start, not a time. And that made that start of ceremony successful every single time.

And it taught me that how we approach something is of equal importance to how we start it to the success that we’re looking for. Part of that is attitude. You wake up in the morning, what do you do? What’s the very first thing you do? Make that a successful thing.

Be successful at it, no matter what it is. I want it to be positive and supportive and helpful. The very first thing I do is I find something like that that is that way.

Often for me, it’s just so sleepy. I’m getting up, just getting started, and I go straight to the cacao, baby, right to it, just boom. There’s no straight to the plant medicine.

That’s success. Love plant medicine. I could not even imagine Earth without all the beautiful plant and plant medicines and plant allies and friends.

And what a cool thing they are when they’re in their own right, like this chemical complexity and psychoactive, and they play with the interplay of who and what we are on the molecular and on the cellular. What a thing. So be successful in that very first moment.

That’s setting ourselves up for success. The start of something, anything we’re going to do, we orient to starting it. I start now everything with sanctuary, because that means I’m setting myself up in a place of peace and support from Spirit to help everything we do.

I reinforce it with the invocations, but I’ve learned to continuously create it. If you like the practice, I recommend always creating sanctuary. Just everywhere we go, we should just create infinite protection and safety for ourselves and others, simply by being in the awareness of the union with Source and creating with Source that way.

So now we’re setting up this field. This is field-oriented consciousness tech. We’re talking about the field we live in.

When you go outside and there’s a strong wind, you know there’s a field blowing at you. You see the trees. This is not imaginary.

There’s dimensionality beyond us. There’s space beyond us. We project into it.

And when we go into plant medicine, we see there’s a lot of energy. There’s a lot of sacred geometry. There’s a lot of color.

There’s a lot of stuff. If we put sensors out, we perceive there’s so much in this field that my eyes don’t see alone. We’re saying to all of this field of energy and field of consciousness to be a certain kind of way and to co-create that.

What I also loved about sanctuary was that it took no energy to do it. It took no more energy than what I was already doing. In fact, it took less energy to create sanctuary because it was harmonious.

So trying to stabilize myself in the chaos of my own mind and my own being and my own body and everything, that was hard. That took a lot of energy. But projecting into this field, our sanctuary, and then letting it work.

And letting the spirits, which are these energy shapes within our consciousness, this energy presence. Sometimes we see it in the archetypal. Sometimes we see it in the subconscious, unconscious.

That’s how we tap in. It’s this presence. And then our mystic traditions taught us that well before we ever incarnated, spirits were incarnated to help us.

We were not sent here alone. We did not incarnate alone. We didn’t single cell from what we study in the biological sciences of the processes of mom and dad coming together to make us just to suffer and be alone.

That’s just a hard no. That’s a terrible story. So that story has to just be rewritten, like off.

That’s an off story. We reoriented to tell that story well before I ever showed up. There were lots of spirits paving the way.

They were here for us to help us the whole time. They call them power animals, spirit guides, light beings, angels, all different kinds in our traditions. We’ve talked about these and known these.

And so for us in our lineage, we all have them. No one has better ones or worse ones. No one has more or less than the other.

Everyone has access through sanctuary to all of them. Now they’re the ones you may bond with more. They’re the ones that you may really resonate with because of the nature of your connection.

Like for me, blue morpho butterflies have been a big deal in my life. That’s just a huge power animal spirit guide for me. And they fly all around the lodge.

Everywhere you look, there was another blue morpho. It was just so beautiful and such presence of that spirit. Everyone has access to these.

And so you just have to exercise your right to that. And with sanctuary, we know it’s infinite spirit. It’s infinite protection.

They’re there for us. And we’ll have the ones that we most bond with, but we work with them. So we’re setting ourselves up already with the spirit.

We’re reorienting. We’re not alone. We’re not in a vacuum.

We have this spiritual support and help all the time. We’re connected with our spiritual support. We call on it.

Now, I found that it was a lot of work to constantly reinforce my intentions. I wanted to be aware of them, but constantly reinforcing this could almost sometimes seem like OCD for me or like a mantra. And so I came to communicate with them in a way where it’s like, we know what we’re doing.

We’re on intentional mission. We know that whether that’s more success this month, whether it’s the greater general mission you have, whether it’s your destiny, whether it’s your soul calling, whatever it is, or maybe it’s just improving a little by little or whatever it is, it doesn’t matter. There’s no way to measure the importance of that.

It’s just important. And so there’s this continuous communication with the spirit. You know each other.

They’ve heard you. They’re working with you. We’re working together.

Another big one for me was jaguars. I love the jaguars. I don’t know how to explain how much I love jaguars.

I love them in spirit. They’re just the neatest spirit beings. And I love the mamas.

Those are the biggest mama jaguars. That’s so cool. But I also love the little baby jaguars.

To keep that presence around me all the time, right over here I have a baby jaguar image, just the cutest baby jaguar head. We have these awarenesses of the beings around us. I have a Buddha next to me.

I have a statue of the Buddha. The Buddhas are everywhere. I have a statue of the Buddha next to me.

It keeps the reminder that we’re in communication. It’s a living prayer. We’re setting ourselves up to have success with the spirit.

The spirit is aligned with us, and we’re aligned with the spirit. We’re reorienting from any kind of dissonance. Now, once we set up the space, the time, sanctuary, the spirit, this becomes very co-creative.

You’re going to witness a phenomena that I witnessed, which is that you’re always doing something. I learned this phenomena when I wanted to just quit. I was over it.

I was so over the whole thing. I was tired. I was tired and scared, and I was over it.

I was lying in bed one morning in a hostel in Iquitos, and I was done. Apprenticeship was crushing. It was too dark.

Everything was terrible in that moment. I said, I’m not going to do anything. I’m going to lie here and do nothing.

I had had enough. I was lying there, and I realized in the time lying there doing nothing, I was doing more than if I just got up and was just starting to do what I knew I needed to do. The resistance was doing something.

The judgment was doing something. The frustration was another thing. The emotional was another thing.

The breathing was another thing. The discomfort was another. It didn’t matter.

If I listened to music, I was doing another thing, and so there’s this phenomena. I learned it then, but now I’ve reoriented that. It’s not a negative at all.

It’s an incredible thing. When we’re up and awake, we’re consciously doing stuff, and when we’re asleep, we’re sometimes consciously doing stuff, and sometimes we’re unconsciously doing stuff. So there’s the waking time and the sleep time, right? It’s when you’re awake doing stuff, and you’re always doing something.

Most of us do multiple things at the same time. Very few of us actually do any just one thing. Most of us are like thinking, and or speaking, and or moving, and or working, and or all at the same time.

We’re multitasking, and then on top of that, we add what we call multitasking, which is even like trying to do not just one task, but multiple tasks, right? So we’re going to harness this. We’re going to harness this understanding that we’re always doing something. We’re going to use that phenomena for our success.

We’re not going to just have to go just make up success. We’re going to orient. We’re going to reorient and orient what we’re doing to success, to how you measure success and understand success.

Now, there’s another phenomena I witnessed, which was like a really, this was a tough one to take. This was like, ouch. This was like really tough when I met it.

I realized that I was really good at everything I was doing. So in a way, I was really successful. If it was self-sabotage, I was like excellent at it.

And if it was bringing myself down, it was phenomenal. And so I was actually really good at these things that were limiting that externalization of the concept of success. So in my doing of stuff, in my continuous doing of stuff, I had to realize I was really good at a lot of things that were not helpful to what I was trying to achieve or what I was trying to actually do in my goals.

I could be really good at procrastinating or really good at putting my foot down and being stubborn or really good at turning myself off course to something else to get away from the thing that I didn’t want to fix. So I found out, wow, I’m like skilled. What? I was skilled at fear, doubt, frustration, judgment, criticism.

I was skilled at these things. I’ve taught this in the plant medicine that these are all tools if we use them only when appropriate. But often, what we find ourselves in a situation is that we use a lot of tools at times that they’re not that good to use in terms of the fulfillment of what we’re trying to achieve.

So part of this success is right tool, right job, right internal tool. Maybe it’s a mindset. Maybe it’s a frame.

Maybe it’s an emotional state for what we have to do. For instance, I go to put the car in reverse and the emergency brakes on and the alarm goes off, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. This is not good for the car to drive with the emergency brake on.

But how many times as a metaphor in my life have I’ve been trying to go forward with something and inside me, I’ve had my own emergency brake on. I’ve had like this resistance and now I’ve created impedance, even though I know I’m going to do it anyway. That requires a reorienting and a reframing in my mind to let go of that impedance or heal something in me about it.

There’s also a unique feature in life, which I find that a lot of the things that I found to be really traumatic or even devastating in my youth, I still have to do every day. They’re like just part of living. It wasn’t that these things were all like super simple and I got over them and they were just done.

A lot of the stuff that was really tough to do, I still have to do every day. Not even every now and then, but actually every day. And so there’s this healing, this healing that’s continuous.

That’s what I love about continuous self-healing in sanctuary. With sanctuary practice, as I do stuff that I know is costly or difficult, as I do stuff that I know I had internal resistance to, as I do stuff like that, there’s this healing that is taking place associated with it. I want to create alignment within myself and I want to be successful at what I have to do.

Some of that stuff was just my own immaturity growing up. I just was rebellious or I didn’t want to follow certain rules or whatever and you just have to and you have to comply and stuff. There’s a lot of compliance in our lives.

I deal with a lot of daily compliance. I found that difficult. I want to have logic and reason and why and explain it all and I have to orient that myself.

So we’re going to find this phenomena where we’re going forward, we have internal resistance within ourselves, we find out that resistance goes from way back in our childhood and we just need to heal it and heal it and heal it and heal it and heal it and heal it and heal it as we go forward. This way we’re reorienting and setting ourselves up for the co-creation of success. Right tool, right job.

All these tools. Now if in our pursuit we run into a situation where we don’t have a tool, we need to find the tool or we need to learn how to use a new tool. We are all tool users.

Everything around me is a tool. The mic stand is a tool. The tripod is a tool.

The crystal is a tool. The keyboard is a tool. The mouse is a tool.

The screen is a tool. The shamanic room spray is a tool. That’s an aromatic tool.

Those are powerful tools. Water is a tool. All these tools.

Even the air is a tool. Right tool. And when we resist something within ourselves to look at it, realign, reorient.

Now we’re ready to co-create. All this is setting up the space and getting ready to co-create and we’re in the co-creation. We’re part of it now.

What are we going to co-create? What is success for us? Now we started last month in going into redefining, looking at how we were taught success. Very limited in my mind how I thought of success. It was just so limited.

I love your guys’ shares, especially in the mentorship about all the different ways you guys are looking at success and understanding it and working with it. What I wanted to do is amplify the understanding of success. I want to amplify the real nature to success.

There’s so many ways to measure success and see success and participate with it and be successful. I’m going to amplify this success. Start to redefine it.

I’ve kept most of the ways I was taught success, but I wanted to amplify that success. We started to look at that, but now we want to move beyond what success was for us. When we do that, we need, anytime we’re going to go into a new state of being, we need a new imagination.

We need a new vision. We need a new dream. In our lineage, we get new vision, new imagination, new dream through ceremony.

There are lots of different processes for this in the world. We do it with ceremony. We go to our visionary plants and go get a new vision.

We ask for the vision to come through our dream. We ask for it to come through spirit and come through higher order intelligence and power, divine. We harness our divine connection for that vision and understanding.

We release the limitation provided by others as if that were the true definition of everything. That just can’t be. It is limited by definition.

We seek from the infinite through the infinite, this newness and awareness. What a gift it is to be visionary. What a gift it is to be a visionary person.

Each and every one of you is a visionary person. You’ve all had visions. Wow.

Earlier in my life, I was locked in my mind the way my mind was like a prison, my mind. It was a prismatic, a prism prison. I felt like I was just stuck in there.

That was it. And then I found vision in my early 20s. Boom.

I saw a much bigger scope of the world. I made a much bigger container. And then that container became the cosmic vision, the idea of infinity, the awareness of something so much more just beyond ourselves.

Found solace and peace in that. So we go into vision and we ask for a new vision for success. And so I want you guys to do that.

This is fun. This is visionary personal homework. Man, if they had given me this homework in grade school and then in high school, this would have been better.

What a great thing that this is visionary work. I want a new vision. What’s this going to look like? And you can have new vision over and over and over and over again.

It’s not just one and then you’re stuck with that thing. The beauty of plant medicine vision is it can be over and over and over. And you can refine the vision.

You can improve upon the vision. So we’re going to find new vision and we’re going to reorient to that vision and we’re going to release limitations. Now, here I recommend that we don’t move to illusion, delusion.

It’s so easy. It’s so easy to want to cast a spell with the mind and make something up. An outcome of this that’s predefined and then I’m going to try to work to that outcome as the way to do this.

I warn at that moment. It’s very easy to do. The new vision of success I want to be step by step, incremental.

Grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow. Yesterday I was talking with a person who’s just starting this, their shamanic path. And I was saying in our lineage, the way it works is that we use the metaphor of the seed of the tree.

Like a big lopuna tree or an anacostia tree. It’s a little seed. It’s not some huge seed.

It’s just a little seed and the little seed gets planted underground. At first you’re in the practice, it’s like we’re in the darkness. Not scary darkness, just don’t know what’s going on darkness.

It’s kind of like, I don’t know, how does this even work? And then all of a sudden you get through that. Usually there’s a lot of like lights and it’s not like lights off darkness. It’s like you’re in the unknown of it, right? And then all of a sudden, boom, you break through.

That’s when they say that seedling pops through the earth. It now gets the light of the cosmos, of the sun. It’s like, wow, it’s almost blinding.

It’s incredible. Oh my God. And you look around and then you realize you’re surrounded by just giants, just giants.

There’s just a whole forest around you. What? I’m seeing, but oh my God, how do I do? This is how they describe it. This is like early, early apprenticeship.

This is early learning these things in the lineage. Like a lot of questions, a lot of stuff. And then you grow, grow, grow, grow, grow.

And you kind of have to sometimes push through some of the other guys growing, growing, growing, growing, growing, growing, growing. You kind of keep growing, growing, growing, growing, growing, growing, growing. And you get into it and they say, and then you kind of like forget what it was like before.

And you kind of forget where you’re going, both. You’re in it. You’re just in it, in it, in it, in it.

And then they say, at some point, you break through again. And it’s like breaking through the canopy. And you realize you’re shoulder to shoulder with all of the giants that are there.

You’re all friends. It’s described as a kind of great harmony that gets established. You’re all friends with all of the other giant trees up in the sunlight.

And it’s light all the time. That’s how I want this experience of success to be for us. See, in that story, in that metaphor, regardless of the nature of what we were experiencing during that time, at any given time, we were always growing.

And we were always progressing. And we were always becoming more successful. And we were always fulfilling our vision.

I don’t want us to imagine a thing that we could fail. I want us to grow success. Every choice, every decision, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow, grow.

And sure enough, for me, that metaphor came true. I lived that metaphor through the medicine. And if you stay in the medicine, and you keep practicing the medicine, everybody who does that will have that same kind of an experience.

The growth in the medicine, the success in the medicine is in the love. And we’re going to have a new vision that’s going to be encompassing now of your true understandings of success. And if you want to, and you like this idea, I would recommend right there adding to it that the vision updates as you grow in your awareness and understanding of success continuously.

So you’re never less successful, you’re always more successful. And you’re always more aware of what more success is for you. And with that awareness, you’re always more successful.

This is how we reorient this to this new dream and new vision. And we want to ground that vision. And we need associating grounding practices.

The simplest associating grounding practice I know is to feel the mass of our bodies. There’s other ones where you walk, and you feel the base of your feet. The other ones you feel your skin.

You feel, feel, feel, feel, feel, feel, feel. Because these are visionary things, and we want to ground them in the physical. We’re going to ground them in the body.

So if someone asks, who’s becoming more successful? You go, I am. Who’s doing it? I am. How are you doing it little by little? Who’s doing it? I am.

If a spirit asks you, who are you to do it? You go, I am. I was telling that story recently. This guy came to me early in my practice.

I was a young pup maestro. I was a young baby in the space. And he says to me, he says, I had a really big problem.

I come from this lineage. They’re these Hindu practitioners. And one of the uncles had gone really dark, like dark worship stuff in their lineage, and was doing bad things to the family.

I was through Shiva. So I went into ceremony. I wasn’t, I didn’t know much about the demigods at that time at all.

I just called out Shiva. We drank big ayah. And I called out Shiva, and I’m like, you just got to stop.

This has got to stop. I don’t know. What are we doing? Just got to stop.

And she goes, who are you to call me? I stopped for a second. I go, me? Her response, me. Shiva goes, okay, good.

I’m glad we got that straight. I had to chat about it. I was like, come on.

You got to stop that stuff. The video never asked you. You just go, me.

Just like that. Who’s giving you permission to succeed like this? Me. Who told you you can talk with God? Me.

That’s it. That was funny. And I learned that when I went and met him all.

I went and met him. I’m like, hi, I’m me. Who are you guys? Found out they’re all great spirits.

Helpful in one way or another. Any fears we have along this way, we keep turning them down and off. Down and off, down and off, down and off, down and off, down and off.

Now, as we get this new vision for success, and it’s an amplified vision, it’ll cover every single category of your life. Every single aspect of your life. We can categorize it or not.

It’s irrelevant. It’s every aspect. It’s just that simple.

What are we improving on? Everything. What do we want to be successful in? Everything. How are we going to do it? Little by little by little by little by little by little.

Sometimes I can feel overwhelming, or just whelming. I’ve been feeling really whelmed lately. I don’t know about you guys.

January was whelming. It was a whelming time. It was a good time, but a whelming time.

When that happens, a lot of grounding. A lot of grounding, a lot of breathing, and a lot of faith in yourself. The beauty about knowing Source is that you don’t have to have faith in Source.

You know Source. Source is God. Source is the universe, but in ourselves, faith.

I can do this. I can do this. I can do this.

I can do this. I am doing this. I am doing this.

If you get tired, rest. I learned in an apprenticeship that there’s always time to rest, but it’s not always when you would choose it. When you’re doing something holistic, meaning all of you, there will be a moment to rest.

Take it whenever you get it. For me, it was like catching 10 minutes lying down, or it was being able to sleep for five minutes, or it was another opportunity to let my mind be somewhere else for a minute, etc. Just rest when you get that opportunity, because sometimes it can feel whelming.

Every time it feels whelming, ask for help. Here’s the thing with Spirit we have to understand. When we ask once, the Spirit hears us.

When we ask twice, the Spirit hears us. When we ask three times, the Spirit heard us the first time. When we ask four times, the Spirit heard us the first time.

When we ask five times, the Spirit heard us the first time. So the question in that teaching is, when do we hear it? As soon as we hear it, we switch from asking to receiving, and there’s nothing wrong with asking one, two, three, four, five. If you do that, it becomes a mantra.

That’s learning to focus, and that’s okay. It doesn’t have to just be ask once, and that’s it, but when you hear it, you start immediately receiving. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Spirit.

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go. We’re doing it together, and we start receiving help. The breath of Spirit, the water of Spirit, the presence of Spirit, doing it together.

That’s an awareness teaching for us, how we receive. There’s the active channel and the receptive channel. Sometimes we think we got to do more, more, more, more, more, more, more.

Like somehow we got taught busy bee and tasking is productivity. I don’t think it is. I think focused use of our time, no matter what you’re doing, will have the most impact on anything you do.

If you get tired, rest. During these processes, I would often find that the internal voice could turn self-critical, self-judgmental, and I would want to get down on myself. I realized that that’s because people in my life had said hateful things to me, and I had internalized the way to speak to myself that way.

That’s a hard no. That’s just a hard no until we train that out of our heads, just like when I have to train my dog over and over and over, that whatever that is is a hard no. You do it with love and consistency.

This is a success-oriented nature about how we orient and treat ourselves. I can make mistakes, and that’s okay. That’s a mistake.

That doesn’t make me a dummy. We’re all intelligent, beautiful beings inside ourselves, and other people talk total poop-poop at us, and that’s just no. That’s how they talk.

That’s not how I talk. If I catch myself talking that way, then that means somehow I’ve just started those patterns again, and that’s not a good tool for me. That’s the right tool, right job.

Being criticized never once helped me be more successful. The only thing that helped me be more successful was focusing and doing something more successfully myself. There was no cause and effect to someone treating me in a negative, terrible way and me performing better.

That’s just baloney, and I don’t eat baloney. Baloney is not a food. It’s not a teaching.

That’s baloney. It’s just a hard no. It’s rampant in our societies to do that to each other and to ourselves.

It doesn’t actually produce what we want. Let me show you this. I’m hammering something.

This has happened before in my past. I’m hammering something, and I missed the nail, and I hit my thumb. I said to myself, you’re so stupid.

Now think about it. Now I have two problems. First problem is I hit my thumb.

The second problem is I’m stupid. No, I just hit my thumb. I missed the thing.

I need to actually refocus and hit the nail. I didn’t need any commentary to myself. They’re two totally separate processes.

One is hammering, and the other one was talking to myself in a way that didn’t help me at all. I didn’t learn that being born. I learned that from other homo sapiens who were really strange in the head, and they did that kind of stuff.

How we treat ourselves through this process is part of how we’re successful. We have to treat ourselves in a successful way. What I loved about plant medicine is that I found some beings in there that could treat me in a way that could teach me to harmonize and balance off of them and learn from them.

The Christs were always loving. That was it. You’re all over the shop.

I could be anything, and they’re just loving. The light of the sun is always on and warm. The light of the Christ is always just on and warm.

Always. So I say the light of God flows through you. I think of the Christ, if I had to define as beings that channeled consciousness through the field of infinite unconditional love.

There’s lots of them, not just Jesus. Jesus gets a lot of hype. Jesus is a really close friend of mine.

Everyone knows those stories. You’re welcome to being friends with any of them. They’re there to help us all.

I call on all the Christs as a plural, meaning any being in this universe that learned the field of infinite unconditional love through consciousness. That’s what I mean by that when I call on the Christs. Any being who learned through consciousness the field of infinite unconditional love, I want their help.

Because all they do is come and love you while you’re figuring it out. They radiate a field of success for you, of just pure love. What a beautiful thing.

I liked the Eastern philosophical teachers because they had learned this thing called compassion. I didn’t know anything about it. I had no clue what they were talking about.

I was like, what do you mean compassion? What is that? It took me a long time to understand what they were talking about. I want them to radiate on all of us compassion, respect and compassion. 24 hours a day, just through us, just compassion.

It’s like sunbathing in compassion and love to stabilize in our field of compassion and love as we grow and learn. Because growing and learning anything is not easy. It’s not easy.

This is about learning how to be continuously more and more and more and more successful, but without pressure and without stress. This is where we get into decision. This is lesson one out of our lineage.

Toltec lineages had the four agreements. Those are solid. The four agreements, there’s a book about it.

Those are great agreements to make. I was perplexed. I thought they were pretty basic, simple, almost like 10 commandments oriented stuff.

I thought the world would embrace that. The last 20 years has proven the world is not interested in embracing collectively the four agreements. Be honest with your spoken word.

Nah. Always try your hardest. Nah.

These things, they were not interested in integrity as a general concept. Nah. In our lineage, there was be decided, follow the path of the heart, never throw in the towel, never quit.

Become decided. This is the decision. I’m going to become more and more and more and more and more and more successful.

When you do that, poof, it will flush out of your consciousness everything that is a kind of self-sabotage. In the shamanic paths, often they dissociate from that and they say it’s something against them, but I don’t want to do that. I just wanted that to be another expression of something in us that needs to be reoriented.

We want everything to help us be more successful. We make the decision. It has to come with total conviction.

Like, yeah, I did that. Who did it? I did it. Why? Because I made the decision.

I made it. Who drank the eye? I drank the eye. Who decided to apprentice? I decided to apprentice.

Was it a good idea? I can’t measure it, good or bad. It was an idea. I did it.

It became a life path. Who decided to work with the spirits? I did. Was that a good decision? I don’t know.

It was my decision. Who decided to be more successful? I did. Was that a good decision? I don’t know.

I’m being more successful. You tell me. Who decided to work with God? I did.

Why? Because God was there to work with. Is that a good decision? I don’t know. You tell me.

Now, the Western mind was taught preference and preference is not decision. Choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice, choice. It’s like the fragmented version of decision of us.

Decision is we decide something. One of the things I decided for this year is by the end of this year, I want to be healthier than I started physically. Many of you guys know I’ve had a really 2010, a really big accident left me handicapped.

I was like, yeah, I’m done with that. My decision is that I’m going to rehab that whole thing. I don’t know how long it’s going to take.

It’s irrelevant to me. It’s an orientation of direction. I’m going to do it little by little, by little, by little, by little, by little, by little, by little, every single second of every single day.

I’m not expecting there to be some miraculous outcome. I said, no, there’s no imagination on the other side of it. I’ve just decided that that’s how this is going to go.

This is the direction we’re giving to creation. That’s a decision. It’s the direction you’re giving to it.

And I know now from the path, and I know from intention, and I know if that’s how this works, and I know that in a year, it’ll just be better. And in two years, it’ll be even better. And in three years, it’ll be even better.

And in four years, it’ll be even better, not worse. And it’ll make every little micro choice along the way align with that decision. That’s decision.

Apprenticeship was that way. Poof, I got into apprenticeship and all the whole space wanted me to quit. The whole thing was knock you out.

No. If I’m still alive, I’m still apprenticing. If I’m still alive, I’m still in the medicine.

If I’m still alive, I’m still apprenticing. If I’m still alive, I’m still in the medicine. That’s a decision.

And I became maestro. And then they said, well, you can’t be maestro. You’re too young.

They’re the way they test you to see if you’re a maestro or not, is to test you. And I’m still doing it. I’m still doing it.

I’m still doing it. I’m still doing it. I’m still doing it.

That’s decision. No one’s giving you permission. you just do it.

So we need decision. Your decision must be unshakable. So even when I was super scared, I was shaking, my decision was focused.

That’s it. And you keep going and going, little by little, but it doesn’t matter how fast you go. It does not matter.

You have a decision. And then you have to know that whatever comes your way, you have to deal with it. That’s called responsibility.

You don’t quit. Number one rule in these practices is that you take responsibility for what you decided to do, not someone else forced you to do it. That’s what I loved about it.

Who chose to do this? I did. Now the number one rule in plant medicine is have fun while you do it. Never forget that.

You got to have fun while you do it. Remember, as soon as you make these choices and decisions to orient this way to success around your new vision, you got to go get your new vision. Maybe you already have it, and the plant medicine ceremony just reinforces it.

Maybe you already have the dream. It just reinforces it. So you get your vision.

Tara just wrote something. She goes, one of my favorite things my husband has said from 20 years ago, you must become decided. Decide and that’s it.

You must come from a place of shamanic knowing, where even if it’s only one chance in a million, if it’s your chance, one chance is all you need. It proved to be central to her healing of Lyme. As I said, it’s not probabilistic.

It’s just doing it. And you have to understand that when you become decided, all these things from our society that will come, that we’ve taught, that are in our subconscious and they’ll be fleshed out. They’ll show up.

Just say hi and medicine 90. Self-healing, self-harmonizing, self-balancing, self-grounding, self-orienting, and let’s start to reorient everything. Along the way, if self-sabotage shows up a lot and strong, there’s a whole module in the library about self-sabotage.

That’s just a hard no. We can go through that too. We can also go through self-sabotage this way as well, that just by orienting now success, success, success, success, success.

All the ways we were taught to limit ourselves will show up and we’ll learn to deal with those. That’s a reorientation, 10 and 3, through healing, harmonizing, balancing, grounding. 10 and 3 is a series of codes that you get out of the five simultaneous states, the fifth state, by using the other four.

So if I need to reorient something, I heal, harmonize, balance, ground. And it’ll naturally reorient. If I need to harmonize something, I heal, balance, ground, and reorient, and it harmonizes.

If I need to ground something, I start healing, harmonizing, balancing, and orienting, and it grounds. They work together. They’re not five separate things.

It’s this incredibly pliable, infinitely morphic field that we just intend into it. We show up. So in summary, we have looked at success, how we were taught success, and how we want to redefine it.

And now we’re going to start a process of reorienting around a new vision and a new dream. We’re going to make this reality little by little by little. And this month we’re going to get really clear on our decision and our intention.

It’s going to flesh out all the things that we were taught along the way that, for real, do not support us. And I don’t want to follow those anymore. That’s just a hard no for me.

That’s not my teacher. According to Julio, pick your teachers wisely. That’s a hard no.

Everything that’s set up now to limit me and stop me from being able to be the best expression of myself is just a no. Some of these things take a lot more time than others. We give them all the time they need.

We limit the nature of the stress associated with it by starting out in a process that starts in every single way aligned for success, and then continues that going forward. We use our decision and our conviction. A continuously evolving process that we do with Spirit, with God.

I’m excited because I already know how incredible this is. This is a growing, blossoming experience for everybody. I cannot wait to get into this this month.

I’m excited for it. And we’re going to do it too, because we have all these projects that are going on. So we’re going to do it so that we get to live the success of those as well.

But thank you so much. Big hugs, love, and compassion for everybody. Thank you for coming and listening and participating.

Thank you for being a member of this community. Thank you for caring. Thank you for helping support everything that we all do together.

Help keep Blue Morpho going. Thank you for sharing consciousness with me. Thank you for being part of the people in this world that are awakening, and I consider to be part of the solution makers of our species and collective, the part of the soul that wants to improve everything.

Little by little, you are all of deep spirit, soul, and heart, and I’m grateful. Have a beautiful day.
