In this special short talk Guy gives an additional iteration to the attention exercises to help us build a living intention to be present in order to have the attention that is needed to have a different relationship with life.

Every person knows what it feels like to be carried off by an anxious state, so you decide: when some anxiety comes along and takes over your life, are you an awake, inwardly centered person or are you an unconscious, outwardly driven man or woman? Which are you? That you're outwardly directed is pretty obvious. Why? Because that anxious state could not exist without your false belief that who...

Part 1 True abundance cannot be attracted into your life any more than a flower needs to reach out to receive sunlight. The flower is the sun -- its fragrance, a perfume of light. The secret plentitude of anything created by the Divine is that it already is what it wants. So it is with your True Self. Part 2 People want your money and, with a sincere smile on their face, will he...

One good reason to slow down and watch the fall leaves turn color is because if you'll slow down -- just enough to do that -- you will change too.
