1
Howdy.
2
I sincerely hope that whoever, wherever, and whenever you may be that you're doing well.
3
Today I'm going to be sharing with you how I became financially free without actually having any money.
4
Now to preface this video, this isn't going to be like financial advice or me telling you how to get money or something like that.
5
This is going to be me sharing my own experience in this area psychologically
6
and spiritually and each person's life or experience in general is going to be unique.
7
So please just remember to use your own discernment and hopefully you can find something helpful in my experience.
8
I've been in the workforce in various ways since I was about 16 and I'm 22 now, so about six years.
9
And during pretty much all of that time, I had the idea
10
that what financial freedom was was essentially having enough money to where I wouldn't have to worry about anything anymore
11
or I wouldn't have to like, you know, worry about if my car were to break down or
12
if I was to get sick or something
13
and like the ability to go on vacations and whatnot
14
and have all the money that I would need from
15
that from a job or even just in general working a job
16
that pays enough that I actually enjoy doing to some extent as opposed to something
17
that like felt like it drained my soul in a way.
18
I always had this underlying feeling when I would work a job, like, unless in some circumstances where I was working a day where,
19
like, all my friends were there and we were able to, like, talk and hang out a lot, you know, on the job,
20
I always had this feeling like there was something just really
21
not right about the idea of having to force yourself to do something
22
that you really don't like doing for such a big chunk
23
of your life just to be able to like have food and shelter
24
and i've worked as a carpet cleaner for about a year
25
i worked in fast food for about two years i did electrical work
26
and just various kinds of construction for another like one
27
and a half to two years i did a good bit of door dash like delivery driving
28
and i also worked as a janitor at a university campus for a while.
29
Oh yeah, and I also even did like a phone survey job where I would like call people
30
and ask them like health related questions.
31
And in all of those jobs, it was just a varying different type of experience working there.
32
But in all of them, I had that feeling of just like, this isn't right, or like, this isn't what my soul wants.
33
So why is this happening especially in the context of like you know after I started to discover spirituality more
34
and more and I began to really like embody
35
and you know accept the idea that we're here in these lives in these moments
36
because it's exactly what our soul needed and wanted to experience
37
in some way just to like learn what we need to learn
38
and I was always kind of like confused in regards to work in
39
that area because I really did feel like all those jobs
40
that I worked were really not what I wanted to be doing with my life or didn't make life feel worth it, if that makes sense.
41
And throughout all those various jobs as well, I had this thought in the back of my mind of
42
if I were to ever like reach my breaking point or just not really be able to handle working anymore.
43
Essentially what I was going to do was at my mind
44
at the time it was kind of just like a form
45
of giving up where I would just quit the job
46
and you know just see how long whatever money I had would last me and then just see what happens from there.
47
And in my mind at the time especially like early on and
48
when I was working like the fast food job I was
49
like you know one experience of my car breaking down away
50
or one week of getting sick away from like everything kind of falling apart financially
51
and me not really being able to keep up with my bills.
52
So in my mind, that form of giving up was kind of like the end in a sense.
53
And so through all that, I never, you know, I never gave into that idea or allowed myself to really experience
54
or explore that idea and as I got more
55
and more into spirituality I kind of became more
56
and more confused in this area
57
because it almost seemed like you know I could apply all these spiritual things to
58
so many areas of my life and have you know like better experiences with people
59
and have you know just amazing spiritual experiences
60
and connection with nature connection with my guides and whatnot
61
but it seemed like for some reason that spiritual area
62
or those things just like didn't apply to money somehow
63
or didn't apply to work which looking back it really just didn't make sense because it should have applied to everything.
64
Or at least that's what kind of drove me to keep thinking about it and exploring with it.
65
And eventually, after, you know, just some various circumstances in life,
66
I eventually did reach that point where I just couldn't really do it anymore.
67
I ended up quitting the job that I was currently working, and I just decided to see what happened.
68
And I decided to go do a little bit of traveling just because I thought to myself, you know, if this is the end, why not go, you know,
69
have an experience that I actually enjoy beforehand, you know?
70
And eventually, on my travels, I did reach the point where I was basically completely out of money,
71
and I really just didn't know what to do from there.
72
And in all of this, I didn't realize at the time, but what was happening was, in many ways, I was trusting the universe.
73
Like, I had taken a big leap of faith on traveling and, you know, following my excitement in that way.
74
And just in general, like, that act of quitting my job, it was, again, a big leap of faith.
75
But I was still in my mind holding on to that fear of what would happen if I ran out of money, or that fear of just,
76
like, things going horribly if that were to happen.
77
And once I finally kind of like came face to face with
78
that in my reality at first I did essentially I did kind of feel like it was the end
79
because I really felt like I had no options no idea what I was going to do
80
and so I remember sitting down in the little place
81
that I was staying in
82
and just thinking to myself you know what I guess this is it
83
and I just don't really care what happens anymore so I'm just going to go sit down outside and wait for either,
84
you know, some person or some circumstance to come along that will help me, or I'll just, you know, sit there and starve, essentially.
85
And once I finally reached that true breaking point where,
86
like, I, you know, it's not like suddenly my situation or my outlook was, like, amazing and I had, like, all these, you know, all this money coming in or something.
87
But once I finally reached
88
that point of just truly not caring anymore to where I could let go of the fear of it
89
and kind of like reach this acceptance of whatever would happen, that's when things really started to change.
90
And so much so that as I was sitting there before, like literally in the five minute period leading up to like
91
right before I was going to go just sit outside and see what happened.
92
I decided to...
93
I kind of just thought to myself, you know what?
94
What the heck?
95
I'm just going to try this little thing and see what happens.
96
And I ended up joining a little community online of just people who are interested in Bashar,
97
which is just a modern spiritual teacher who I've been following his information for a little
98
while now and just found it really useful.
99
And literally the first person who greeted me
100
and who I had a conversation with when I joined
101
that server in that little five -minute period where otherwise I would have just gone outside and sat down, that person, that first person,
102
literally ended up becoming my future roommate only like a few weeks or a month later.
103
And it also led to me literally suddenly having the means to like travel the whole country
104
and have all these experiences that I'd always wanted to experience.
105
And that kind of truly gave me the realization that, you know, all of those spiritual things that I had been applying to other areas of my life,
106
it does actually apply to like the financial side of things or just the side of things where, you know, you're taken care of physically, like you have enough to eat and you have,
107
you know, safety and a place to stay.
108
And what it took was me reaching a point where I could let go of the physical mind
109
or the ego trying to control things or trying to keep itself afloat because it felt like, you know, it had to do everything itself.
110
But in reality, all of that, all of like, you know, the future and like the how of how things work out,
111
all of that is up to the higher mind, the higher self, or even just you could say the universe depending on how you look at it
112
and none of that is for the physical mind to worry about the only thing
113
that there is for the physical mind to do really is just be here in this moment
114
and walk through life essentially
115
and just to experience things it's not here to try to you know set up all these things
116
that will keep it going in the future because that's really, it's not its job.
117
And it kind of makes me think of a certain Bible verse.
118
I'm not a Christian myself, but it's that Bible verse where it talks about how, like, you know, I don't have the exact wording, but how...
119
There's no need for you to worry about, like, what you'll eat tomorrow or what you'll wear tomorrow, because, like, God loves you more than many sparrows,
120
and, like, even the sparrows are taken care of.
121
I know that's, like, completely paraphrasing it but that
122
and like you know there's examples of that teaching in various other belief systems
123
that really is true that we don't have to worry about how things will work out
124
and that worry and that clinging onto it
125
and feeling like you can't let go in
126
that way otherwise you won't survive that I feel like really causes
127
so much suffering in regards to this area of just having enough and being able to get by.
128
And ever since that realization, I've not really, like I've not worked a regular job and I've,
129
you know, had a lot of experiences where I had no idea where my next meal would come from, where the next place I was going to sleep was,
130
where, you know, my next like gas money was, or in some cases like when I'd even be able to have access to a car again or transportation,
131
but it always did come when I needed it, and I didn't have to, like, force anything or, like, try to figure out anything,
132
because I was always taken care of.
133
And I did have to, like, let go of some of the things that I was used to, I suppose.
134
I think most of it was literally just the mindset that I was used to, but there were some things like,
135
you know, the idea of being in a stable location for like years
136
and years and years I kind of had to let go of
137
that idea and in doing that I kind of realized that
138
that actually wasn't really what I wanted like I really enjoy you know moving around
139
and again I had to let go of just the worry of how things would work out
140
or like where I would get or how I would get the things
141
that I needed and sometimes like I even had the experience of being homeless for a little
142
while but I'm actually thankful for that experience
143
because you know it wasn't really that difficult or
144
that scary there was definitely like a lot of comforts
145
that you let go of but I learned and gained
146
and like transformed so much from that experience that I really do view it as a good and beneficial experience, for me at least.
147
And besides that experience, you know, I've ended up staying with various different people.
148
I've had, you know, various different people give me, just seemingly out of the blue, give me resources that are what I needed in the moment.
149
And things have really just always lined up in a way that I really don't understand.
150
And it's not really my job or your job to, again, understand the how.
151
It's just, it's up to us to allow
152
that to flow to us by letting go of that struggle or that feeling like we have to do it all ourselves.
153
And another thing that all of this did was it got me to really, in more ways than I ever thought I would,
154
to really start following my passions for the first time in life instead of believing that, you know, they were out of reach
155
because i had to like work a job
156
or i didn't have the resources for it like for example
157
i was able to do all kinds of traveling simply
158
because i had things synchronistically line up for
159
that to work out to where i didn't need to like make any money for
160
that to be the case or i also started to do this youtube channel
161
because like it's something that i always wanted to do since i was little
162
and i finally started doing it and now it seems to be working out and reaching the people that, you know, these messages are meant for.
163
And there's even other things like my relationships have improved significantly.
164
My physical health has improved significantly.
165
And just my whole outlook on life has gone from feeling
166
like I was in survival mode to feeling like I'm kind of just chilling and everything is fine.
167
Even though I don't have like a ton of resources that I know are going to keep me going for a while, I've completely let go of the worry
168
because I've seen firsthand in my life now that it is really true
169
that we are just taken care of by the universe or by God or however you choose to view it.
170
And for a lot of people, fully surrendering to that idea is one of the scariest things that you can do.
171
It was terrifying for me thinking about it leading up to it.
172
And there was a lot of difficult experiences at the time of having to release things
173
that I had held onto and that I had believed for such a long time.
174
But in the end, it really did transform my whole way of life
175
and my whole way of looking at the world and just how it feels to be human and to be alive, really.
176
So I encourage you to, if you're in a situation where you feel like you're having to keep your head above the water and it seems like,
177
you know, you're maybe you're exhausted and like nothing is working out and, you know, you're maybe only one bad circumstance away from things kind of falling apart.
178
I would just really think about this experience, think about and confront the things that you're most afraid of happening,
179
and just see what you can do with those thoughts and with those feelings, and how you can potentially transmute them,
180
and how you can potentially just fall into a trust in the universe more.
181
Like, I honestly kind of view this experience for me as, like, having done a trust fall with the universe, and I had to finally,
182
like, actually allow myself to fall, to, like, let go, to actually be caught by the universe.
183
Otherwise, I would have just kind of, like, kept standing there until, you know, eventually I kind of did reach the point where my legs couldn't keep me up anymore, you know?
184
But I think that's going to do it for this video.
185
Once again, each person's experience is going to be different, but I really do believe that it is true that the universe takes care of us,
186
and the more that we can let go of the fear of what's going to happen,
187
things will work out in ways that you can't really understand, because again, it's not really your job to understand.
188
But anyways, I do think I'm going to go ahead and leave this video here.
189
So, oh yeah, really quick before I go, I wanted to mention, I've mentioned this in a previous video,
190
but it was like there's so many more people here now, which thank you very much, by the way.
191
If you're at all interested, I like to do artwork, and occasionally I'll also do nature photography,
192
but I specifically like to do artwork of just like various beings, like ETs and my spirit guides, and just like, you know, spiritual art in general and
193
if you're interested in seeing any of that I have an Instagram account
194
and I have it linked into the description so
195
if you're all interested in that I just kind of wanted to share
196
that again because again there's like so many more people here now
197
which is it's so cool like I I really appreciate all of the wonderful comments
198
that people are leaving and all of the questions
199
it's it really is like life -changing that this is happening like it's something
200
that I've thought about for such a long time
201
and it feels amazing that it's it's really here you know
202
so thank you so much but anyways yeah as always thank you
203
so much for watching and i hope you have a wonderful day, evening, or night, and stay light.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
