If You Want To LOVE YOURSELF To The Core, WATCH THIS! | Byron Katie & Jay Shetty
All suffering is created and it's true. for every human being. We believe our. thoughts, we suffer, we question them, we don't suffer. So, an unquestioned. life is not worth living and that's. certainly my experience, too. When you. said that you were depressed for over a. decade, and and I want to start by asking you, how would you describe that chapter of. your life, of of what it felt like and how. different it is to how you feel now? Oh gosh, it was it was horrible. It is. something that I would never want.
another human being to have to live. through and and um. in my world, people um. are experiencing that. You know, there. there emails that come in to me and. they're they're um. uh. I love my emails that you know, there is. a way out of suffering, but I didn't. know that and. to wake up in the morning, Jan, realize. that I was still breathing felt like. something was intentionally torturing.
me. And I was I was so suicidal and and. agoraphobic, so just trapped most of the. time in my bedroom and it was it was not. fun. Um let's see describe it to you. Um. my my self-esteem and self-loathing was. so strong that I was sleeping on the. floor one morning as I usually did and.
next to my bed because I was so full of. of um. self-loathing that I didn't believe I. deserved a bed. That's the bottom line. So, all I deserved was to sleep on the. floor. But, this particular morning. as I lay sleeping on the floor, I was in. like this dead sleep and a cockroach. crawled over my foot. I opened my eyes. and.
basically. all the suffering was gone. All the. suffering was gone. And the valuable. thing. was that I saw when I believed my. thoughts, I suffered. But when I didn't believe my thoughts, I. didn't suffer. And the way that I saw. that is. when I opened my eyes, the ego did not. have opportunity.
to fill that space. And everything was present. And in that, I began to laugh. It was. like I got the joke. I. got it. And I saw, you know, it I'm. what I was thinking and believing was. the cause of my suffering. And then the. work was born on the floor in in that. moment, you know, it was it was how.
how. all suffering is created. And it's true. for every human being. We believe our. thoughts, we suffer. We question, then. we don't suffer. So, um I some great minds said, "An. unquestioned life is not worth living.". And that's certainly my experience, too. That's That's incredible that you were. able to birth a whole new way of. thinking in that moment. And I wonder, what were those thoughts that you were. believing at that time? Where were they. coming from? Was it family? Was it.
parenting? Was it relationships? It It. was It was It was from me. It was, um. there's. um something terrible's going to happen. There's something wrong with me. The The. world doesn't really care about me. No. one cares about anyone. Um. Um he doesn't care about me. Um I can't. do it. All these and I didn't even know. what the it was most of the time that I. couldn't do, but it was just this this. crazy and the effect of believing those.
thoughts is um depression was depression. and guilt and insanity. And from that moment on the floor. anytime. my head would would say thoughts. would hit, is it true? It would it would. just the thoughts would happen like. something terrible's going to happen, and it would evaporate. It couldn't. continue after that moment on the floor.
And so when people began to ask me, which was really strange and agoraphobic. being asked anyone being in touch with. an agoraphobic is pretty rare. But um people began to just um call me. from all over the world. It was just, you know, just one by one by one. and um and ask what. you know, could they come live with me, you know, the strangest questions. And. um.
I didn't know if it was the water I was. drinking, the food I was eating. I had. cuz everything had so radically flipped. just like from. one polarity to the other. And but then when they'd ask what. happened. and they would they would say uh life. isn't worth living, and it would blow my. mind because I knew they knew better. I I knew they knew better because I'm. still I once you know your own true. nature, you see it in everyone and. everything.
And so I began to show them the. experience on the floor. I asked the. questions like something terrible's. going to happen. Like they would say something terrible's. going to happen, and I would say, "Is it. true?" And that puts them on the floor. Not literally, but it puts them into. that experience on the floor. And then, how do you react? What happens when you. believe the thought? And then, they. become aware of in that meditative. state, how do I react when I believe the.
thought? I've seen those images of the. past, not now, in the future, not now. And And it moves their focus and. attention from presence, where the given. life is, the blessed life is right here, right now, without. being so convoluted or We're We're not. confused when we are present. And.
whatever we need to do can be done. there, and everything to do it with is. also present. And then, that third. question, how do you react when you. believe the thought, they become aware. of the images and what they believe onto. the images. So, we have the the the. image of, let's say, this morning at. breakfast, and we see that image of that. past, and then we believe. words.
onto that image, and then the imagined. life is created. And really, that is all. of life that most humans understand. It. keeps us like in the not now, in the not. now, that past, future, past, future, and it is not, is not. And And And the. movie. is so it's so. all-encompassing. We really Like, I see. me at breakfast, but I really believe.
that's me, even though I can't take it. out of my head. I can't touch it. I. can't move it. I can't I can't throw it. I There's no That's not I. So, that me. of the past, me of the future. Now. there's three of me. And now all of. these past, there are million of me, there are million of me in the future. It's like, who am I? And if we just Who. would I be? That fourth question, who. would I be without. the thought. something terrible's going to happen,
for example, dealing with that one. And it just it just drops the image of. the. of the past where something terrible. happened, the future where it's going to. happen. It dissolves the nothing, all. those eyes, and the answer to who am I? It's present. Just present. And then, you know, people. are taking this on as a practice. And as. they do take it on as a practice, they. see these horrors of the the guilt of.
the past and the horrors of the future, and they are awake to not I, not I, not. I, not I, the all the not now, so they. are with the one they love, the beloved, themselves awake to the given. You know, the love of life, not life. imagined, but the love of. of Oh, you. you know you know, Jane, you you know of.
all people what it's like to see. to see. It's Oh my goodness, I could add stuff. to it. Like, it sparkles, it shines, and. then it's none of those things, and it's. all of those things, and it's. and it's humbling, it's. it's. being gifted. And so I understand why. people want to be in the now, but how? And of course I was shown this one way, and there are so many beautiful ways.
Doesn't have to be just this or just. that, there's something for everyone and. and um. and what I love about inquiry is it. works with everything. It's not It doesn't oppose anything. It. doesn't even say, "Answer me." You know, it just is like like given freely. And. so it after all these years, you know, more than three decades, it still. excites me just to answer your question.
and feel like I'm taking over your. entire program. Give it a go. I I love listening. It's beautiful. And what I'm hearing so wonderfully. is when these questions, and you use the. word inquiry, it's like when these questions are these. genuine, sincere requests and questions. as opposed to these demands. And I feel. often our questions in the world are.
demands to the universe as opposed to. these inquiries. And so we often ask. questions. We're always asking. questions. Yeah. Even with our thoughts, but often. we're asking demanding questions like, "Why is this happening to me? When is this going to end? Yeah. Why is this not stopping?" And those are. not really questions. They're rhetorical. demands. Yeah. And and I find that when. we ask questions like that, we know that.
let alone the universe, even our friends. would not respond to questions like that. because they're not really looking for. an answer. And so you I love the way. you're reminding us. Now, tell us, Katie, if someone right now, and you. have shown us the work, you've told us. about the questioning process, but if. someone right now is and especially. right now is going through anxiety, depression, suffering from mental. health, they are looking at the scenario. of the world and they're having those. thoughts. Yes. And and one would say they're very. valid to have those thoughts, especially.
right now, and there have been multiple. times in history. What would be the. first thing you would say. that they need to do in order to realize. that there is hope for them because I. think for so many people. they they get to this point where they. believe their thoughts so much that they. feel there is no hope left and and. there's no chance just like you were. saying you felt. I would say first get in touch with your. emotions because they're the most. they're the closest thing to you.
And what blocks us from our emotions? What stops us from them? The truth sets me free and and that's. my experience. Unless it's drugs, you know what what you know, we do our. best. and so I tried all of that and I did it. well and it took me literally to the. floor. But I would say get in touch with. your emotions like when we're angry for.
example, we feel it and we tense and so. to first get in touch with your emotions. in other words notice. Notice. And then. move up to your head. and notice because those emotions let. you know and remind you of what you're. thinking and believing is the cause of. your suffering. And so then you can identify. the thoughts you're thinking.
And then don't trust them to stay. Move them from your head to paper. And then. um sit with those four questions with um. like he doesn't care about me. That belongs on paper. and then you question it using these. four questions and and turn arounds and. the turnarounds are just finding. opposites. So it's all always free. Anything I have a value if.
if I have something of value, it's. always free on byronkatie.com and or the. work.com and and how to do this is there. because if someone. told me, you know, when you feel your. emotions, just just get in touch with. them and what are you thinking and. believing? I would I would. I would say give me a cigarette. In the days that I used to smoke. Yeah, and I I love that about getting it down. into paper. I think it's so important to. get out of our heads.
And you know, when things are in your. mind, you think that they're there, but. they can get convoluted and polluted. And so, I often say to people as well, which I love is getting out on the paper. is almost sometimes voice noting and. recording your own voice and hearing it. It puts you in such an observer mindset. and you can hear yourself and you're. like when you can hear yourself, you can. hear what you're really trying to say. and what you're really trying to. communicate. It's almost like hearing in. between the lines for yourself. Same. with writing it down when you can read. out to yourself. I think those are such.
powerful tools. I I love it when I've. heard you say that to judge people is to. keep them separate from me. And and I like that so much especially. right now because I feel that judgment. is what creates so much divide and. sometimes even. even what I find is more subtle is. judgment of judgment. So, so it's we think that we are being. right by judging, but actually we're.
simply judging someone for their. judgment, if you know what I mean. It. keeps us separate. It is the fence I put. between you and me. And and I feel that separation, so I'm. just going to come at you whether you. like it or not until you understand me, but it's my fence I have put up. between us. Yeah. The cause of all suffering. is what we're thinking and believing.
So, what you and I are talking about. right now is the cause of suffering. Mhm. It's it's. what we're. thinking and believing. That is. attachment. You know, the Buddha talks. about attachments. We religions talk. about attachment and and um. dodge something there's something else, but we'll say attachment and and um. and.
what we're talking about is the most. important thing. To identify what we're. thinking and believing is to identify. the cause of suffering and to question. it is to set ourselves free. And to. question that really is a meditative. process. For example, if I think there's. this is a terrible place, this world is. a terrible place. My mind will show me all the images of. the past that prove it and the future. that says it's going to happen again.
It proves it. What we're thinking and. believing is proven within us, but it's. as we say nowadays fake news. It's fake. news and because it's not real. It's. it's imaging. It's dreaming. It's the. dream world. So, to ask is it true. begins to wake us up to reality. And the. valid answer we when we ask is it true. to meditate, to get still in that and. not to ask the question of ourselves if.
we don't really want what we're asking. to meet the question. And what we're. asking to meet the question is that. don't know. world that is so unavailable to us when. we are living as believers in in these. these terrifying depressive. states of mind. What are some beliefs that we should. have then because if we have if we're. believing.
so many of the wrong thoughts, what are. some of the thoughts that we should. believe? Is there a. Well, words become like um. matches for. um our true nature. And or a match to the heart. Like um if. I think there's something wrong with him. or her or them, you know, a society for. example, but there's something wrong. with him, then my mind immediately shows. me all the proof. And but it's not proof. It's a state of.
mind. And then it shows me the future where. he's going to do that to me, too. You. know, that's going to happen here, too. And so I don't see that him I'm with. I. see who I imagine him to be. So that's. who I'm talking to. So I like to say no. two people have ever met. We're crazy. We are talking to a phantom and we're so. convinced and and um.
so, you know, this this work wakes us up. wakes me up to reality and I forgot. your question actually slipped. No, my No, no, that was beautiful. I My. my question was. because you're saying that we. sometimes believe our negative thoughts. and that's what creates our suffering. Oh, the replacement. So. Are there any thoughts that we should. have? Are there any beliefs we should. have? Well, let's let's say um I think. there's something wrong with him, and is.
it true? Can I really know that? How do I react. when I believe the thought? I see that. past future energy and all of that. Who. would I be without it? And I'm just. meditating, dropping my story, dropping. that identification on him, taking all. the post-its I believed onto him, and I. just see him. And I see him. and with without what I'm believing onto. him. And then when I turn it around, there's something wrong with him turned. around, there's something wrong with me.
And I'm not exchanging one belief for. another, I am I am going to try it on as. though it were a a shoe I tried on and I. fell in love with in a shoe store. I. don't know if it fits, I've got to try. it on. So, uh there's something wrong with him. turned around, there's something wrong. with me. I'm going to try it on. Now, in. that situation with him, there's. something wrong with me. Okay, my attitude. I was experience a little fear, a lot of. separation, there's something wrong with.
me. I see him differently when I dropped my. story on him. That was mine. There's something wrong. with me. So, I am meditating in a moment. in time. And I'm present. And if I see something. if I see something unacceptable in my. world, I look to me. I don't look. to other people. They cannot give me the.
answers that I'm seeking. And often they. say things that enlighten me, that wake. me up, that change my life. But I'm the one that heard them. And as I'm in a hurry, I was in a hurry. And and. I was. I was. I was. granted a. a gift, and it came freely. And now, that belongs to everyone.
And no one has to be open to it either, but I just know my job like you know. yours. We're we know our jobs. We. give the guest and and and we it it. grows in us each time we do. And what about so many people I hear. today who are. reconnecting with some of the pains in. their childhood that they may not have. even been aware of. So, when we look at. childhood trauma, we look at abandonment. issues, we look at the feeling of not.
feeling nurtured, like we look at the. feeling of being rejected or neglected. as a child and we carry this. and it's there. and we sometimes we don't become aware. of it until we're much older. It's so. true. How how does someone go about. processing that? Because I feel that. that also reflects in the type of. partners we choose for ourselves. It reflects in. our communication with our friends and. our bosses and our colleagues. It.
creates so many issues. It affects everything. It it affects our. identification. The people I work with so that they. understand how to work with it. themselves. is I and I ask them to go into. like go into the trauma, get into the. center of that trauma where it was the. most painful. and identify meditating in that. situation and that's asking a lot. But to go back into that situation and.
identify what they were thinking and. believing. then. Mhm. Because what they were. thinking and believing then was the. cause of the trauma. No matter what that. person did to me, what I was thinking and believing was. the cause of my trauma. So, I identify. those thoughts. I write them down and I. have a judge and a neighbor worksheet on. my website people can download or work. it there and and and it's a form with.
six questions. that include in allow us. to recall what we were thinking and. believing then. Right. So, um so that. supports it. And then there are their. thoughts, what they were thinking and. believing then, the cause of the trauma. And um and then they question those. thoughts. And they question that from a. meditative state, from that situation, from the center of that that terrible. situation. Doesn't mean the other person.
isn't guilty, but it's still what still remains is. what I was thinking and believing is the. cause of my suffering. So, I question those thoughts and and. the trauma breaks and um and I am. enlightened to the cause of my. suffering. And that's what I was thinking and. believing, and then there I have a lot. to do. I have a lot to do after that. It's another worksheet and another. worksheet. And you know, my mother, um. for example, said, um one day, let's.
let's hypothetically. say she said, "Byron Kathleen." And I'm. just a little kid. I'm just goo goo ga. ga. I'm just, you know, da da da da da. da da da da da da and and it doesn't. mean anything to me. And she says, "Byron Kathleen." And it. means nothing to me. And then let's say. 3 weeks go by, da da da da da da da. And. she says, "Byron Kathleen." And then one of my. siblings say, "Byron Kathleen." And and. it and my mother says it, my father says.
it, and then one day my mother says it, and I believe. Mhm. I believe. And prior. to that, I was not. Wow. The moment I. believed, I am. Mhm. And the same with I'm a female. I'm this. age. I have this color hair. I have this. color skin. I have this. And now you. have this and you are that and you are.
that. So I'm multiplying like being in a. mirror. And and the whole world is. reflecting what I believe back to me. So. to go back to the beginning Wow. and and and. Wow. and and and question, you know, my name. is Byron Kathleen. You know, and. that's so close to the ego. I don't. invite people to go there. But if you're. let's say you're raising children. Oh, I.
just I just this work is free. All it. will cost you is your identity. And. leave you with a leave you with a kinder. one. That is so powerful what you what you. were just saying there about constantly. taking back to when what was your belief. at that time? What were your thoughts. and your belief at that time? Because. there are so many times when we believe. and we have created a thought that we. trust this person.
Yet we never knew if they were. trustworthy. We never allowed them to. earn our trust. We just gave it to them. And then we wonder why they broke it and. it's because at that time we chose to. give them our trust. We chose. Well, when when we consider what we were. thinking and believing Yeah. you know, we look to ourselves. They didn't they didn't con me into. trusting them. I believed this this and. this and. I trusted that. Yeah. Now now you say in.
that regard, you also say that there's. nothing that isn't a gift. Uh it's a. friendly universe, you say. Yes. Oh my. gosh, yes. Oh, it is a friendly. universe. I get goosebumps just just um. hearing it from you. It is a friendly. universe. And but what I'm thinking and. believing about this about this universe. could use a little work if I don't love. it. Mhm. As it is. And And we question what we're thinking.
and believing about life and it leaves. us in a friendly universe. Mhm. It's. It's the most It's It's a radical thing. to wake up to reality. No downside. It's. hard to accept because of our desire to. control. and our desire for my ego for things to. be the way we want them to be. Yeah, our desire to be God. Correct. And. And that's And And our desire to be God. is. is an honest thing. It's just flipped.
into the ego's possession. Mhm. So it's. So we question what we're believing and. we become very humbled and then. eventually we see that that we. Oh boy, this is This is um. This is wild, but still it's like. I. I believed this universe into being. And if I don't love it, I need to. question my universe. Mhm. And that.
means question what I believe about you, about me, about them, about it, about. God, about everything and wake up to. reality. And without any preconceived idea about. what it is. Mhm. And in my experience. it's nameless anyway. Nameless would. take away from the beauty of this that. beautiful and to even claim it is.
says what it isn't. It's more than that. It's It's um. It's disrespectful. for me to even attempt. It's more. beautiful than that. Mhm. And And I love. I know that my community will be really. interested in this case is how does. this then affect our relationships and. our communication with those that we. love? How does this closer, closer, closer, closer.
No space. No No distance. No No. separation. Just. living out of our true nature and. trusting that it's a fearless state of. mind, which means that there's nothing. we cannot accomplish. You know, we. wanted to accomplish something. If we don't, we consider. and we consider what we were thinking. and believing that stops us. Then.
inquiry leaves us in this fearless state. of mind. And it's um. and it's really good to be clear what. you're going after. Mhm. You know, what. it is you really want. And so for me, that's that's that's a part of the. journey. I want people people to be. free. And um and and why am why am I Why. am I doing what I do? Because I have. seen they're already free. That leaves.
me jobless. They're already free. And. then I discovered that that. that what we're thinking and believing. what people are thinking and believing. is the only prison they've got. Mhm. So, I see like on television hungry. children, people suffering, and I have. been in some of those positions. And I have sat in the in the center of. those experience and identified what I.
was thinking and believing. And other. than that, I was okay. So, I understand. that the world is. Again, it's a it's a friendly universe, Jay, and I'm very open to. to it not being, so I continue to test. it. And your test seems to be proving your. hypothesis correct. Um I see a lot of good. I would say I see only good and anything.
less than that I question. Yeah. I love. what you say about the three businesses. Uh can you share about the three. businesses? I really like that. If if I. look at it at um at like my daughter, let's say one of my the way she's. raising her children, for example, or. one of my sons, there's three kinds of. business in all of the universes, mine, yours, and God's. And that's the God of. your understanding. And if I'm mentally.
in my daughter's business, I'm sitting. here with you, but mentally I'm in her. house. knowing how she should raise her. children, knowing what she should do, all of all of this. I'm talking to you, but I'm over there in my daughter's. business. So if I'm feeling disconnected from you, I can just ask myself mentally, whose. business am I in? And notice, and. emotions will let me know for sure. And.
then just come right back to right here, right now. And this is where I can make. change. I can't make change over there. I'm. I you know, I I can't be in all these. places at once. But we are, we're all. over the world. His business, her. business, their business, God's. business, the weather's business. That's that's a great point. That's so. true. We rarely are in our own business. Oh, so true. And and the news takes us to everyone. else's business. So our social media. takes us to other people's business.
We're always talking about other. people's business. And how do you get. your business done if you're always in. someone else's business? And when you're. when we're present, we can observe life. from um um. out of a. it sounds strange, but out of a. proactive state of mind, an. understanding, I think is the better. word. And and stay present and watch. these things on televisions and and and. and walk in. Black Lives Matter events and and we can.
do the most marvelous things um and. still be present. Mhm. It's um but fear fear stops us from I. don't have the right clothes and and I I. wonder if if uh I need to take a lunch. and I did the Oh, well, this is just, you know, I don't think I'll bother. today. Mhm. You know. You know, what would stop us from doing. the right thing, our heart's desire? Mhm. And literally our heart's desire.
and to live out of that. Fear. Yeah. What Katie, what is the uh secret. to your long incredible relationship. with Steve? Oh, he How did you guys find How did you. guys find each other? How did you guys. know that you were right for each other. and how did you He he he is. He's better at telling the story, but. but um. um my um. um a.
a friend of mine said that I just needed. to meet him and um and that um he's the. one person in the world that could write. um um. my book. Loving What Is. And um. and uh oh gosh, how do I tell the story? He's so good at it. Um. you know, the bottom line Oh, this. sounds this sounds so He asked me to. marry him and I didn't know why not.
And that's the truth of it and I asked. my three grown children, do you have do. you have a reason why I shouldn't marry. Stephen, and they didn't have one, and I. didn't have one. And what I knew of. Stephen is he is good. and kind and wise, and there just was no. reason in the world not. But when you. have a perfect life, when you're never. lonely, let let's say I'm I'm always alone and. never lonely as far as people go,
um I don't need anyone. And and. I married him, and he I mean, just he is. just. so completely lovable. And dear and kind and. and I'm just I don't know how the how. this story sounds, but um who wouldn't. love that? Absolutely. You know, it's. goodness and kindness and fairness and. brilliance and oh, the you know, all the.
things. I um in my life before the work, the opposite would attract me. Um looks and the real man and the the. the you know, all the the. the usual usual. And um. I didn't do well in those areas. It's. that's such a powerful point. I'm so. glad you raised that because. what we're attracted to is also what. we're thinking and believing. Mhm. And.
so sometimes when we say, well, this is. my type or this is the kind of guy or. girl or whoever it is that I'm attracted. to, what we're saying is we think and. believe that this will make us happy. Yes. That the their appearance, their job, their status, their whatever it may be. will make us happy. Yeah. And we don't. question that. We wonder why the person. let us down, but it using your. methodology, the work, as soon as we go.
back to what were we thinking and. believing at that time, we start to. write that what we thought and believed. would make us happy is what let us down. Yeah. Not that person. Yeah, but we were. thinking and believing about that human. being Yeah. and was the cause of our. attraction. But once we question what we. were thinking and believing about the. human being, it loses its validity. really and leaves us in an open state of. mind where we're. more able to see and hear rather than.
think over. Yes. Yes, so well said and. that's it's really registering and for. everyone who's listening or watching. right now, when you when you're. listening to this, I really hope that. the repetition, every time Katie keeps. talking about thinking and believing, what are your thoughts and what are your. beliefs? If you genuinely revisit those. given to a crucial transitionary moments. of your life, you you recognize that all.
of that pain and suffering that you are. experiencing or holding on to comes from. a thought and a belief that you're still. holding on to. Sometimes we're holding. on for decades to a thought and belief. that this person can still make me. happy. And that's why we want them to be. back into our lives. We are holding on. to a belief that only that job can make. me happy or only that thing can make me. happy. That is a thought and belief and. in that thought and belief is. encapsulated all of our suffering. It's.
almost taking a suffering pill every. day. And then when we get that job, we. can't appreciate it because we're taking. the same same thinking into that job. So, really not a lot changes. Maybe the. money, but that's never enough either. Yeah, it's so profound for me. It's. really hearing you repeat it today. and and I've heard it before from you, but hearing you repeat it today and I'm. really hoping everyone who's listening. is feeling the same way. Every time you. say it, it's just going to step deeper. and deeper and deeper and and into my. heart to my heart. So And it does work.
It takes stillness. It's a meditative. practice, you know, sitting in is it. true? And then having the courage to sit in. how do I react? How do I treat that. person? How do I treat myself when I. believe the thought? And then I get. still and I witness. And I'm not guessing at how I react and. how I treat that person and how I treat. myself. I'm witnessing real deal. And who would I be without it? And then. I get to see the same situation again.
minus. as I said earlier the post-its I was. putting on the event and I get to. witness the real world. Absolutely. I'm sitting in the old world new. It's so and then I have a lot of amends. to make, you know, I need to. and. go back to that person, admit my wrong. and. apologize, make it right and start start.
over. It's. It's a living. It's enlightenment has no power until. it's lived. Yeah. So to live it out, it. goes into the identity, the cells of. this apparent body and and it's like it. it wouldn't overlook anything. Love is a. power. It leaves nothing out. So true. So true. Katie, I'd like to. share these final two segments with you. This segment of the interview is called.
fill in the blanks. So I read a. statement and I ask you to fill in the. blanks for us. and we walk through them. So let's do. that. So my first one for you is. thoughts and judgments are and you can. fill in the blanks. faults. Okay. True freedom starts with. inquiry. Beautiful. Being present means. love. Most people believe.
in goodness. The work has allowed me to. be free. Change is hardest when. my mind's not open to the world. Yes. I have no tolerance for to be. continued. Uh. life will show me what I have no. tolerance for. You have a beautiful. answer. I think of pain, but even. physical pain is either remembered or. anticipated. Yeah.
That's a beautiful answer. I like it. And now I'm going to ask you what is our. final five. So, this is the final five. where you answer and that was beautiful. by the way, Katie. You answer every. answer with one word to one sentence. maximum. So, these are five powerful. questions. So, these are your final. five, Katie. This is your first one. What did you once pursue but no longer. value?
Power. Beautiful. Second question. What do you know to be absolutely true? Nothing. Oh, wow. Okay. Uh third question. What do you feel is. so right but other people disagree with. you on? What is something that you know to be. true but other people would disagree or. debate? That you're beautiful. I love that. Okay, question number four.
If you could create a law that everyone. in the world had to follow, what would. that law be? Honesty. Mhm. Authenticity. Mhm. And your fifth and final question. What. the biggest lesson you've learned in the. last 12 months? There's nothing out of order. Oh, wow. Thank you so much for watching that. video. If you enjoyed it, here's another. one I think you'll love. People behave. based on how they were loved and then.
how they were able to process it that. that in a way to love other people.
