Awakened Wealth

Class 1: See the Completed Vision


So welcome, everyone, to Awakened Wealth, and this is Derek Rydall, your guide on this journey,
this trip that we’re going to take together into the field of transformational wealth consciousness.
It’s a trip that you’re going to take where you are guaranteed to lose some of your baggage and
be very happy about it. So if you’ve got any baggage checked in right now, you can hold onto
your baggage check, but you can pretty much guarantee you’re going to lose some of that.

It’s my true honor and pleasure to be on this journey with you of really tapping into and
awakening real wealth consciousness, a consciousness of wealth that has nothing to do with the
world of appearances. Awakened Wealth is a consciousness of wealth that has nothing to do
with what’s going on out there. It’s a consciousness where you know that all the wealth is within
you and that you have the capacity, the consciousness, and the capability to activate and
generate, radiate and circulate, unlimited abundance in every way, shape and form, no matter
what the conditions are.

This is Awakened Wealth, and this is the journey that we’ve embarked on together. And we’re
going to address a lot of things in this course, and go on some very deep dives into our heart, and
our soul, and our mind. And there’s a few things that I want to lay out that we’re going to touch
upon. You know, we’re certainly going to raise your Wealth Q, your WQ, your Wealth Quotient,
or your Wealth IQ, and have much more clarity and wisdom around wealth and wealth creation,
so that you really begin to lose your fear, or all of it or some of it around this subject. That you’ll
have very little to no more judgment about wealth and success and earning as much as you want
or need to fulfill your vision. And release all that baggage around the belief that spirituality and
wealth are somehow mutually exclusive.

My intention for you is that you have a money breakthrough, specifically. Whether you get more
money, you lower your debt or eliminate it, you are able to take some bold actions around wealth,
you are able to charge more for what you do, charge what you truly deserve and want, get new
clients or opportunities, are able to ask for what you want in life, are able to become more
generous and generative, that you have ultimately at the end of this a wealth creation plan, or the
Wealth Mastery Map at least begun with a one year goal that includes specifics on it. So there’s
a number that we’re going to be going for, you’re going to have a number. So we’re not just
going to be dealing in pie in the sky, we’re going to break this down into a real number, so that
you are absolutely developing a consciousness that manifests on earth in real time and with
specifics to whatever that means to attain that.

We’re also going to, the intention is that you also become totally inspired and enthusiastic around
manifesting a truly wealthy and abundant and generous life on all levels. And what I want to do
is, before we jump into the meat of this, I want to just set the tone here with a quantum prayer.
We’re going to be doing a lot of healing work through this course and in between classes as I
work with you, and on you, and for you in, in consciousness and in this field of energy. And we
as a group create this dynamic vortex of energy that is palpable and is not just live in this
moment, but is literally becoming encoded in the very frequency of these recordings. So whether
you’re listening to this live or in recording, your spirit will ask, is this live or is this Memorex? I
don’t know if you remember that old commercial.

The energy of it, because it’s not in time or space, it’s part of a timeless dimension of your being
that the consciousness that’s being activated is timeless, and it’s here whether you’re listening at

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 1


any time, at any place. You’re able to tap into this vortex, this morphogenetic field that we’re
activating and creating now. If I invite you just to close your eyes and to turn within this moment
as we set the tone.

As we turn away from the world of appearances, the world of judgment, the world of separation,
and we turn within to the realm of oneness and wholeness in the realization that there really is
only one, one infinite all encompassing, all powerful, all knowing, everywhere present spirit
consciousness life, higher intelligence, whatever you want to call it. There’s only one, and
because it’s infinite and omni, omnipresent, omnipotent, meaning all power, omniscient, meaning
all science or all true knowledge, because it is all that there is, all in all, and there cannot be
anything outside of an infinite allness. You are therefore included in this infinite allness.

There is nothing outside of it. That means there is no power, no presence, no substance, no law
that can enter in to corrupt or conflict or compete with it. That means in truth there’s only
wholeness; there’s only oneness. There’s only harmony, and order, and abundance, and all that
is true about this divine presence which is all-loving, all-giving, all-knowing, and all-powerful is
true about each and every individual on this call. For each and every individual on this call is a
unique expression of this one life, like branches of the one tree, waves of the one ocean, rays of
the one sun, never separate, always one.

Therefore, just as the branch carries all that is in the tree, just as the wave carries all the
ingredients of the ocean, just as the ray of the sun carries the very light of the sun itself, each and
every individual here is a unique individualized expression of all of the power, and the presence,
and the love, the wisdom, the genius, the joy, the inexhaustible wealth and abundance of the
divine itself. That all the good that is ever expressed anywhere as anyone, all of the good we
look out and see, the abundance, the opulence, the opportunity, the genius, the success that we
see in anyone we now know is the truth about everyone. And we’re now claiming it as the truth
about our life now.

All the good that you see is within you now. Claim it. As we are all claiming this and coming into
a collective agreement there is mighty power here. We are accelerating the transformative
energy; it’s dissolving and disintegrating the false beliefs and old stories and paradigms of
separation, lack, and limitation. It’s dissolving all the unconscious blocks that would sabotage our
fulfillment. It’s striking the mystic cord of memory and stirring our divinity into activity. Something
wonderful is taking place here. Oh, life is just celebrating itself into and as us. The universe has
been waiting on its tiptoes for this moment that we say yes to our yes and open up and let it
express as us now.

And so whatever needs to be realized or released, embraced, spoken, heard or done to facilitate
this destiny of greatness within each and every one of us, it’s happening now. Everything is
conspiring for our good, and nothing is against us. Take a deep breath and feel this expanded
consciousness. (deep breaths) Take a deep breath and see the gift of this moment of grace.
Take another deep breath, and whatever energetic buzz you’re feeling as you exhale imagine
now it’s expanding to fill your whole body. You can give it a color; you can see it. You can feel it
expanding to fill your body, radiating out. And one more breath now as you exhale and let that
energy radiate, and imagine it blessing everyone on this call, everyone in this community.

And one more deep breath, and as you exhale now feel this energy radiating from your heart,
from your entire being, blessing everyone in your life, every area of your life. And radiating and
blessing everyone on the planet, see and feel this energy radiating and saturating the planet.
Wherever there’s the appearance of lack or limitation this energy’s saturating it. You can even
hold your hands out in front of you and imagine the planet in front of you like a small ball, and feel
and see the energy of your heart that’s been activated radiating down your arms and out of your
hands and saturating the planet with this energy. Feel it radiating everyone and everything in
your life.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 2


Wherever there’s the appearance of lack or limitation it’s filling it with this energy of abundance
and harmony, joy and inspiration, love and perfect peace. (deep breaths) And I invite you to just
be willing to set a powerful intention as I go over briefly now just talking about what we’re going to
cover in this program for those of you that didn’t hear it before, and for those of you that did, just
to listen again and to allow it to set the stage for what’s unfolding. Of course, in this first class
we’re going to cover the key principles of Awakened Wealth, which are going to including busting
the wealth myths, number one and revealing awakened wealth truth number one. Going through
the seven sacred gifts that give you everything, and we’re going to go through them a little more
deeply on this call, but then we’re going to break them down more and more on each call into the
depths and practice of them, the mastery of them.

We’re going to talk about the Money Mastery Map, where we’ll uncover your monthly money goal,
your money miracle goal, your money miracle goal, your money freedom goal, and your money
mastery goal. We’re going to talk about and implement the daily LIFT practice, which stands for
Living In the Feeling Tone, and here’s where you’re going to develop the daily process for
activating that visionary vibration of wealth and abundance and more than enough, eventually
setting it on autopilot. We’re also going to get started on the 40 day giving challenge, and as you
set this powerful intention you’re going to learn how to let go of getting, and really become a
master of giving, which will open up the windows of heaven in your life and begin to pour forth a
blessing that’s too big to even see.

Then we’re going to move into the Awakened Wealth plan, where I’ll show you how to put all this
together into a structure that you can apply with ease, and with hopefully with a lot of fun. At any
point if this stops becoming fun, you got to take a breath, and you got to get back into the joy of it,
because there’s nothing serious going on in the universe. A uni-verse, one song. There’s a
dynamic symphony of success and joy going on everywhere, and we’re setting our intention to
celebrate with it. And then we’re going, of course, get into the hot seats, which is one of my
favorite parts, where I’ll get to work with you personally answering questions, going deeper into
the principles and the applications and helping you have rapid breakthroughs.

Then in Class Two we’re going to jump into the real nature of wealth, of course we’ll touch upon
that in this class as well, but we’re going to get into wealth. We’re going to add a component of Q
and A in each class, where you’ll be able to cover the issues that are coming up, and the growth
since the previous class, and build on what’s been covered. We’re going to jump into this
paradigm shattering awareness of the true nature of wealth that will forever change the way that
you see wealth and money and abundance. We’re going to talk about the 25 ways to manifest
more, which a fun and deceptively simple way to turn on that inner wealth machine and start
producing breakthrough ideas.

We’re going to bust wealth myth number two and reveal Awakened Wealth truth number two.
We’re going to go even deeper into the sacred gifts one and two, giving forth and giving away.
We’re going to work more on building your daily give plan which is part of the 40 day giving
challenge, and we’re going to get into some extra Awakened Wealth action steps, so each week
I’m going to give you some really cool things to focus on and practice in your everyday life that
will make these teachings come alive and bring about exciting sacrednicities [phonetic 0:14:07.2]
into your experience. And I’m also going to do quantum healing throughout these calls,
throughout these trainings on the training themselves for individuals as well as the group and in
between.

Then in Class Three, we’re going to jump into self worth versus net worth, which is a wealth and
worth building course or workshop, and we’re going to bust wealth myth number three, reveal
Awakened Wealth truth number three. We’re going to get into some real practical stuff about how
to ask for what you’re worth, how to earn what you want, how to keep more of what you have,
and how to feel great about it. I don’t even think I need to explain that one. I think it’s pretty self
explanatory, but it changed my life in a very practical way to get this and to realize that there’s
nothing unspiritual about asking for what you want and claiming what you’re worth. In fact, as

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 3


you do that more and more, you create the space for everyone around you to have permission to
do the same.

[END 0:15:08.0]

In fact, as you do that more and more, you create the space for everyone around you to have
permission to do the same. We’re going to talk about how you begin to see others as the channel
of your good and not the source. This is a powerful principle that totally frees you up; to ask
unabashedly for what you want and what you deserve, knowing that you take nothing from
anyone, but in fact, you create the space where they get to expand into more of who and what
they really are. We’re going to talk about the “Self-Worth and Net Worth Congruence Practice.”
We’re going to unwrap Sacred Gifts 3 and 4 – “Giving Up and Giving In.” We’re going to go
deeper and getting clear on the Giving Challenge, on the Money Mastery Map and the Awakened
Wealth Plan. More hot seats, more action, Awakened Wealth actions and Quantum Healing.

Then in Class 4, we’re going to get into “Expansion versus Adaption or Adaptation,” and this is
the key to wealth without limits. And in this class, we’re going to bust Wealth Myth Number 4, we
reveal Awakened Wealth Truth Number 4. We’re going to talk about going from “Contraction to
Expansion,” and it’s a transformational process and practice that allows you to, no matter what
the circumstance, when life seems to contract, you learn how to expand in the face of it. Which is
kind of like another way to say love your enemy, turn the other cheek, give love for hate, give
abundance for lack. We’re going to learn how to constantly respond from expansion because
when you understand that you have everything within you, no matter what the appearance is, you
never have to adapt to it.

This is a powerful one. I almost want to launch into it right now. It’s so life-changing. But we’ll get
to it. We’re going to unwrap Sacred Gifts Number 5 and 6 – “Forgiving and Giving to Yourself.”
We’re going to deal with the real cause of debt and how to eliminate it forever. We’re going to get
to some more hot seats, some more Awakened Wealth actions, some more Quantum Healing.

And then in Class 5, we’re going to deal with “Life is Abundance” and we’re going to bust Wealth
Myth Number 5, Wealth Truth Number 5. We’re going to uncover more deeply your values
conflicts around wealth, around money and around success. We’re going to create your
Awakened Wealth “Afromnation.” And I did say “Afromnation” and not “Affirmation” because when
you understand that you already have everything, you’re never having to pray for anything, you’re
always praying from, affirming from. It’s an “Afromnation.” And this will rewire your values
conflicts, turn those inner enemies into allies and crank up the production of your own inner
power plant.

We’re also going to redefine your Awakened Wealth Vision because after you’ve been through all
these work, uprooted and integrated and healed, we’re going to revisit that vision and make sure
it’s as big and bold and abundant as possible. Then we’re going to dive deeper into Sacred Gift
Number 7 – “Giving Thanks.” And when you are done with this, you’ll really understand and
appreciate and activate gratitude at a whole new level.

And this is, of course, just a brief outline of what to expect. You can plan to be pleasantly
shocked, surprised and delighted. And again, taking on an adventure to places that you never
imagined that will ideally expand your mind and open your heart and lift your spirit in whole new
ways.

And just take a breath with me right now, and now come back to this moment. For some of you,
that might have been like, “Holy crap! That’s a lot! How in the world am I going to do all that? How
in the world am I going to get all that?” And the answer is you’re not. The you that’s responding
that way is not the you that’s going to be here when we’re done. It’s like the acorn looking at the
vision of the oak tree and going, “How in the world am I going to become an oak tree?” Well, the
acorn is not going to become an oak tree. The acorn is going to have to die. It’s going to have to

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 4


give way to its protective shell that the deeper core of its being can begin to emerge, and the life
force within it does the real work, the heavy lifting, as the acorn yields to what’s emerging and
simply allows itself to be planted in the soil and the congruent conditions to be cultivated.

So, just relax if you’re feeling anxious about all of that and know that we’ll work on it one moment
at a time, and that this course is designed in a way that it’s multilayered. I am intending to pack a
lot in, but that’s because like a great work of art, you don’t get it all upon first viewing or first
listening. A great work of art has layers and depths that continue to speak to you and touch you
and work on you over and over and over, and every time you experience it, it works on you more
deeply.

And so, this is designed with that in mind. That you’re not going to get it all the first time around,
and that’s exactly okay. But every time you re-listen and reapply and you start back up on your 40
Day Giving Challenge which you can do back-to-back, it’s going to go deeper, it’s going to purify
you more, it’s going to strengthen you more, and it becomes not just a course you take over the
next month or so and then you’re done with it. Awakened Wealth is about a state of
consciousness and a way of life. So this becomes a new state of habits, and ultimately, a new
way of character.

So I want you to set your intention now for this program and know that, again, while we are
certainly intending to rock your world and change your life over the next month or so or whatever,
if you’re listening to this, just listening to these recordings, however long you work on them –
though I do highly encourage you to work on them in a row, in order – but it’s important to also set
yourself up for a definite success pattern.

While you can and most likely will have big breakthroughs and ahas and paradigm shifts, and
some of you might even have big changes and real miracles, which really is just an instant
demonstration of the perfection that’s always there, but the very best use of this course is to set
the intention to create a permanent change in your way of life, to create a new way of thinking,
new habits. If you do that, your life will change over time; sometimes incrementally, sometimes
dramatically. Because ultimately, it’s not our circumstances or our karma or any outside forces or
past experiences that determine what our lives become. It’s our character, which we have total
control over.

Understand that the way it works is your focus determines your thoughts. What you focus on,
what you entertain will determine the thoughts you obtain. And those thoughts that you obtain
determine your beliefs. Your beliefs determine your emotions, which determine your actions,
which determine your habits, which ultimately create your character, which determines your
destiny. Okay? So it’s focus, thought, belief, feeling, action, habit, character equals destiny.

Now the good news about all that is that so your destiny is not determined by your karma. It’s not
determined by the stars, by astrology, numerology or any other ology, including your biology,
physiology. It’s not determined by the economy, it’s not determined by your parents. Your destiny
is not determined by any of that. That and your so-called karmic propensity give you the setting,
the stage. Right? But your focus, where you choose to focus, which ultimately determines the
thoughts you think and the beliefs you believe and the actions you take, etcetera, and the habits,
that is what determines your character, and your character determines your destiny.

So it doesn’t matter where you are right now in your life. It doesn’t matter what you’ve been
through. It doesn’t matter what part of the world you’re living in or what your current conditions
seem to be telling you is possible or not. It doesn’t even matter what the world believes or says is
possible or has even shown to be possible. None of that matters. None of that is a power or an
authority or has any jurisdiction over your life or your destiny at all. One thing alone does. Your
consciousness. And these steps I’m just describing here are the map of how to take back control
of your consciousness and determine your destiny.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 5


Now, of course, we’re going to get more into this in the course, but right now, setting your
intention is the beginning of setting your focus. So I want you to take a breath and set an intention
that has something to do with my intention is I’m going to totally, radically and utterly change my
consciousness of wealth to a whole new level. That I become free of all worry, doubt, fear, all
stories of lack, limitation and victimization, and I become empowered with the realization of my
true nature, my true wealth and abundance, my true vision and destiny, and I have the tools, the
skills and the consciousness to apply it with consistency in my life. I’m setting my intention to be
totally transformed, to be a totally new, larger, bolder and more abundant being when this is
done. I’m setting my intention for a mighty miracle to take place. I’m setting my intention to just
have the time of my life and to come into the realization and the activation of my true destiny.
Something like that [Laughs]. All right? In your own words.

Now, it doesn’t have to be that big and grandiose, but set an intention that inspires you. Set an
intention that’s a stretch. Take a deep breath, and just feel into that intention now. And say, yes,
I’m willing. Yes, I’m ready. Yes, I’m able. Yes, I can. Yes, I am. All right, and just know that you
can continue to develop and refine this intention as we go on any given day and throughout this
program.

And so, I want to jump into some of the core Awakened Wealth principles. And I just want to, you
know, are we excited, or what? Are you guys excited? Are you feeling as pumped up as I am,
and as inspired in the possibilities? Are you feeling that energy of possibility? Wow. I mean,
there’s just no limit in the Universe. There is no principle whatsoever in the Universe or power
that’s holding anything back from you. Life is never holding anything back from us; we hold
ourselves back from life. But not anymore, not you, not here, not now. And no longer. So we’re
going to talk about some of the core principles.

The first one of course, which is the core of cores, is that everything is within you. We’re going to
of course go much deeper into this, but you’re going to hear me repeat this over and over,
backwards and forwards in many different ways. You know, and it comes down to the idea that
whatever is missing, therefore is what you’re not giving. If you want more to come into your life,
you must let more life come out of you. If you want something different to come into your life, you
must let something different come out of you. So, you are the divine power plant. You are the
source of all creation. You are the law to your universe, nothing and no one outside of you is.
Complete power jurisdiction and authority rests in your consciousness. Not in your ego, but in
your consciousness, which is divine consciousness, ultimately.

The second core principle is the law of circulation, which is very important in Awakened Wealth.
And, because ultimately it goes something like this, you can only give what you have. You can
only keep what you give, and you can only sustain what you are willing to receive. It’s a circle; it’s
the in breath and the out breath, but it’s not two breaths; it’s one. It’s one continuous breath. Do
you notice when you’re born, what happens? You take your first breath. When you leave this
experience, what happens? You let that breath out. So you’re born you go (inhale), and when
you leave the body you go (exhale). It was just one breath. One breath, continuously circulating,
and giving and receiving is the same thing. Right? So, when you come into this world of
appearances you take in life, you receive life with that breath. And when you leave you release
that life, at least that particular form of it. It’s one movement, not two.

Giving and receiving are just this one constant movement. One is not better than the other, you
know. It’s not more spiritual or righteous just to give, anymore than it’s more healthy or spiritual
to just breathe out. Right? If you walk around in your life, and you just breathe out all the time,
what’s going to happen? You’re going to die. You’re going to expire, and you’re not going to be
of much use to anyone. And if you, you know, likewise, just receiving obviously is not any better.
If you just walk around taking breaths in, you’re going to explode. So, it’s one movement, and you
need to do it as much on both ends, right? If you just walk around and you go, well, I’m going to
be mostly a giver. You know? I’m going to walk around. I’m going to mostly breathe out, and
then I’m going to take, I’m going to take a really good breath in in the morning, breathe out for the

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 6


rest of the day, take a really good breath in in the evening. And how’s that going to work for you?
Or I’m going to go on like a retreat and just do a lot of in breathing. So that afterwards I can just
focus on my breathing out. How’s that going to work for you?

The same thing is true with the giving and receiving. It’s really all part of a giving cycle because
there’s just a radiance, and really these are oxymorons—not oxymorons, but they’re linguistic
conveniences, because you can’t really give or receive anything, not really. Because you’ve
already got it all, and you’re already having your being in it, right? It’s like you’re living and
moving and having your being in it and as it. So you can’t really give it or get it, receive it. It’s
kind of like we talk about the sun rising and setting, but the sun’s never actually doing; the
planet’s just revolving, and it appears like the sun is rising and setting. And, you know, it’s a lot
more romantic to say, hey darling, let’s go watch the sun set. As opposed to, hey darling, let’s go
watch the planet revolve. Right? Unless your partner is like an astronomer or something; then
that’s really sexy.

But basically, circulation is how we talk about the experience of being human. We’re breathing in;
we’re breathing out. We’re giving; we’re receiving, but it’s really one radiant broadcast of
abundance that’s always going on, that we’re literally made of, and that we’re swimming in. Now
if that kind of is hard to imagine or grock [phonetic 0:31:36.1] or understand, that’s okay. Some of
the things I’ll talk about, it’s not something that you can just get intellectually; it’s more like a zen
Cohen that is something that you contemplate until it causes a breakdown and breakthrough in
awareness. It goes beyond the intellect, and you have a direct knowing of what I’m speaking of.

Now, the third big core principle of Awakened Wealth is that anytime you put your source security
outside of you, you block the flow and become a victim. So, everything is within you. In order to
allow that to be experienced, you must partake in the Law of Circulation. So, you have to, you
can only give what you have; so, you have to give it to yourself. You have to activate it within
yourself. If you just try to be a do-gooder and go around giving and giving without activating it
within yourself you’re going to become burned out; you’re going to become resentful; you’re going
to become depleted. You can only give what you have, but then you can only keep what you
give. So, you have to give everything that you’re trying to get also. And, you can also sustain
what you then receive back.

So, it’s a loop, giving, receiving, giving, receiving, activating within yourself, giving, receiving,
activating within yourself, giving, receiving. And so any time you then think the source of any of
that is outside of you, you block that; you dam that up. It starts to stagnate, and you begin to live
in a swamp where there’s no inlet or outlet. And we’re going to talk much more about that, of
course, and what the impact of that is in your life. I’m going to open it up for questions in a little
bit, but I want to talk about a couple other things here.

So, the first one is of course, the human wealth myth, or hypnotic wealth spell number one. And
that’s that we’re separate from our good, and that we must go out and get it, achieve it, or make it
happen. And this is just so much a part of our conditioning, because when it talks about from the
Bible, you were born in original sin. What that really means, sin is an archery term that means to
miss the mark, and it essentially means that you were born under a mistaken identity. You were
born in to an environment, into a consciousness, that believes you are merely a body separate
from each other, separate from everything you see out there, and therefore, from that
consciousness of believing you’re separate, that you’re just a material body, and that you only
have what you can see and that you can carry in your arms or store in your cave or your bank
account.

The natural consequence of that belief system is that you will then think you have to go out and
get more, that you have to hold on or hoard or protect what you have, that you have to fight and
struggle and strive and manipulate, and sometimes even kill or die to get the things you don’t
think you have, or that you think you need, or that you think your loved ones need. And it’s the
constant cycle of this, and it’s really that core belief that we’re separate from our good, really is

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 7


the core cause of all the conflict and struggle and suffering of humanity. That’s why the
Awakened Wealth movement isn’t just about you becoming more abundant, but that’s, of course,
number one and important, but it’s about shifting the consciousness, because as this
consciousness shifts you discover that so much of the conflicts and the struggles and suffering is
because of this one hypnotic spell, that our good is something outside of us, separate from us.

Now we’re going to only get into the second hypnotic spell we’ll understand why we do that,
which is that we’ve materialized our abundance and our good. We’ve taken everything and
literalized it, and materialized it, and concretized it, and so we believe money is dollars. And we
believe our good is material stuff, which it’s not. And that just further solidifies our hypnotic spell.
And, of course, we’re going to get more into that. But the first one we have to understand is that
the false belief, the big lie, the biggest lie of all, which is why it’s number one, is that you’re
separate from your good, separate from each other, separate from god.

God, meaning not some guy with a white beard on a cloud, but the divine intelligence that created
everything and governs everything in perfect order and harmony, and is within you and you within
it. This one power and presence and intelligence that you are, that you’re—the beliefs that you’re
separate from it, and if you look even in Genesis in the Bible, the Christian Bible or the Hebrew
Torah, I believe. That it talks about Adam and Eve kind of in the Garden of Eden, and they are
so, they have no self-consciousness; they’re connected to God, to all the abundance of Paradise,
and everything they need is there for the taking, there for the asking even before they ask. It’s a
state of grace, okay? And then it says Adam eats from the fruit from the knowledge of the tree of
good and evil. So he eats of the knowledge of good and evil, of God and something else.

It’s that knowledge, that belief system, that there’s something other than good. And in that
moment, it says a great sleep fell upon him. An nowhere in Genesis does it say that he ever
woke up. So what happened, and then of course what happens after that is that Adam and Eve
are suddenly wearing fig leaves, and they’re dealing with, they’re getting kicked out of the
Garden. They’re falling from grace; they’re falling from that state of oneness with all of their good.
And now they have to struggle for it, they have to labor for it. And it never says that Adam woke
up, and so the whole thing is a hypnotic spell. That was pretty gnarly fruit that Adam ate, and of
course it’s a parable, but it’s describing a state of consciousness that we fell under, a hypnotic
spell that we fell under where we began to believe that we were—began to perceive ourselves
being separate, and believe that we’re separate, and in that moment we fell from the
consciousness of oneness, the consciousness of grace, where we were one with our good.

And then, we forgot that we fell, and we began to come up with more and more coping
mechanisms to try to manage the fact that we were separate from our good. So now we had to
learn how to manage, gain dominion over the earth, because we had to learn how to tame it and
domestic it and harness it and dominate it and conquer it, and then conquer our enemies. And
one by one we came up with more elaborate, more intense coping mechanisms to cope with the
one thing that we were perceiving, that we were separate from our good. And now you get where
we are now, where we’ve got these complex states of belief systems. All of it is a big, wound up
ball of coping mechanisms to cope with the one core belief that we’re separate from our good,
from our god. And the whole thing is a hypnotic spell, because the truth is that sleep fell upon
Adam, and he never woke up.

It’s just a hypnotic spell, and my intention for this program, and of course all of my work is to snap
us all out of it. To just wake up, to wake up to the realization that you never left the Garden of
Eden; you never the state of grace; you never left your father/mother god’s house; you never left
heaven or harmony or wholeness or nirvana, whatever you want to call it, that you’re there right
now. You’re living and moving and having your being in an ocean of such wellness and
abundance and love and wholeness and inexhaustible good. And so we’re not going to add
anything to you except for tools and techniques to begin to—to continue to wake yourself up and
keep yourself awake. And to integrate that into your human structures so that it becomes a way
of life.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 8


So, of course, the Awakened Wealth truth number one, principle one, is that whatever’s missing
is what you’re not giving, that it’s all within you, and, again, the next myth and truth that I’ll bust is
that it’s because it’s all spiritual. It’s not like there’s a bunch of stuff inside of you. There’s not a
bunch of, you know, trains and planes and cars and dollar bills like inside of you, obviously, that
you’re going to get out of you. That’s where a lot of people get stuck. They’re like, well, this is all
great, feeling the energy and activating the energy. It’s all feels good, but I need to pay my rent.
Where am I going to get the cash? And understand that the cash, and the things, the substance
of all the things you want is that spiritual energy, and when that gets activated and generated it
appears as the things in your life. Again, we’re going to get much more deeper into that.

But it’s all spiritual, and so you never need to get—and the thing about it is, is that because it’s
spiritual, and you get to generate that. Like you always hear me talk about, you are the divine
power plant. And a power plant doesn’t receive energy, it does what? It generates it. So, when
you get that wealth is spiritual, and that you can generate those qualities any time of the day,
anywhere you are, that’s the beginning of true freedom and the end of all victimhood. And that
when you understand that wealth is just as spiritual as love or loyalty or integrity, and that, just as
if you, the more you love and activate love, the more love you have to give. Likewise, the more
that you activate and generate the qualities of wealth, the more that you have to give, and the
more that you have, and the more that it shows up in your life.

So just think of a quick little experience of this, I invite you to close your eyes right now, and just
recall a time in your life when you felt loved, or loving, or there was something you love, or
someone. And just in your heart, and in your mind’s eye, see the object of affection, or see
yourself in that experience where you felt loved and loving, or see the picture of your loved one.
And feel the love that you feel for them, or them towards you. And now, whatever love you’re
feeling, radiate that back towards the object of love. Just feel yourself take a breath and radiate
that love.

And now, take another deep breath, and to whatever degree you’re feeling that love, feel yourself
radiating it to everyone in this group. As you’re radiating it, also feel that you’re receiving it.
Breathing out, breathing in, radiating the love, receiving the love. Take another deep breath, and
as you exhale feel it expanding even more within you to fill your being. You can give it a color, so
you’re seeing; you’re feeling it; you’re radiating it. You’re seeking nothing but to give, to generate
the love, and you’re breathing in and receiving all the love. And now, just notice wherever you
are on this spectrum of feeling love, and maybe it also has qualities of joy or inspiration to it, or
peace. Because ultimately if you go deep enough into any quality, you find all qualities, because
there’s really only one.

And now, just notice that just a moment ago you weren’t feeling this, or at least not as much. So
where did it come from? Where did this feeling of love come from? This generative energy, this
higher frequency that you’re now feeling, this more extended, expanded space. And where does
it go when you’re not feeling it? Notice also that, to whatever degree you’re feeling it, it had
nothing to do with anyone or anything outside of you changing. It didn’t even have anything to do
with you psychologically changing. Like, you’re story is still the same. You still came from a bad
childhood; you still had parents that didn’t appreciate you and see you. You still have a job you
hate; you still have problems in your body. Whatever the condition is, that hasn’t changed. But
you’re feeling a little bit more of that love right now.

So the love, the activation of it, has nothing to do with conditions; it has nothing to do with time or
place. It’s there, on call, the minute you place your focus, remember that was the first part about
reclaiming your destiny and building your character was your focus. And even though you might
be in the midst of some struggles right now, if you practiced along with us you were able to
activate a little bit of love, no matter what. So your conditions did not matter. You might even still
have some plan in your body, but maybe were still able to activate a little bit of love. So that
energy even doesn’t matter what your body, you might even some swirling thoughts in your mind,

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 9


but still you were able to feel a little bit of the love. That love is independent; that love is real.
That love is your very nature and being, and it has nothing to do with person, place or condition;
nothing to do with time or space; nothing to do with any human or material law or principle or
ology. It is independent; it is nondual; it is real. It is your very name and nature, and the truth
about you. And you have 100% capacity and control to activate and to generate it. Okay?

Now, the more you’re willing to practice and discipline yourself to generate that, which is now
tuning you in to station KLUV, K Luv. Now you’ve tuned into it, if you tune into a station, the
music’s playing, and you didn’t make the music happen, right? You made it welcome, and that
music wasn’t in your distance; it wasn’t in your future. It was always playing, always broadcasting
right here and now, but you had to tune into it. You had to tune into that broadcast to experience
it. And then, as you breathed and expanded, as you breathed and radiated and gave it away.
So, first you tuned into it. You gave it to yourself; you filled yourself up.

You activated; step one in the law of circulation. Step two was you began to radiate it; that’s step
two, you cannot keep what you don’t give. And so you noticed it expanded a little bit more when
you did that. Step three, you then allowed yourself to receive what was being given. Now you
activate the law of circulation, and it continues to expand. So, and more and more you do that,
that quality of love will become permanently established. It will become a new set point, and it’s
like having your radio stations, you know how you can hit the presets? And if you hold the preset
long enough, if you just hit it once the station doesn’t get set, but if you hold the preset it actually
gets permanently set. So the more you’re able to focus, activate, circulate this quality of love, I’m
just using love right now as an example. You create a new set point, and then what happens is
because that quality of love is the very substance of the real world that you want to experience, a
world of harmony, and order, and abundance, and companionship, and connection. That quality
of love as it gets established will manifest, it will appear in your experience. It will congeal as new
or improved relationships, opportunities, etc.

Now, here’s my big point here. The quality of abundance or wealth, when you break it down from
money and dollar bills and houses and cars and whatever, to the qualities of it, you can activate,
generate, radiate, circulate and create a new set point for those as well. And you begin to
discover that the more of those you give away, the more you radiate it and understand that wealth
is spiritual, the more and more that will become a new set point, and that new consciousness
must clothe itself in new form. And it doesn’t matter what the economy is; it doesn’t matter what
you’re conditions are. It doesn’t matter how seemingly broke you are.

Always and forever you have the ability to tune into that station, KRICH, or KLUV, and begin to
activate, generate, radiate, circulate. So, I went a little bit deeper on that then I’d planned on this
call, but it just seemed appropriate. We’re going to go into more on that on the next call, and how
to really activate and practice that more, specifically around wealth. But I just want you to get that
this experience you just had around love, that the same is true for any other quality, and
ultimately the seven gifts that give you everything, which are the cornerstone of the Awakened
Wealth program. It’s all about finding all these different ways in your life, internally and externally,
to activate the qualities of abundance. The seven gifts give you a very real and practical way to
daily activate, and to set up a way of life where you are consciously and automatically activating
these qualities that are within you; it’s all within you.

And this whole Awakened Wealth paradigm is about finding a way to live a life that becomes all
about activating and generating the kingdom of heaven which is within you, the nirvanic realm,
the quantum field, the storehouse of infinite riches. And the more you activate that, the more you
have, because the world of appearances is just the coagulated, stepped down, energetic
expression of your thoughts, which are units of energy. And just like an ice cube is just water that
becomes stepped down in vibration and becomes frozen, or water is just a coagulation of steam,
or mist, that’s become stepped down and coagulated. So, the world of appearance is nothing but
this internally generated state of being. And you and you alone have the ability to generate it. It’s

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 10


already within you. It’s all here, all the raw material, and we’re giving you the tools to more and
more master that, specifically around wealth.

Of course, these tools can be applied to any area of your life, that is the whole emergence model,
but we’re focusing on wealth. And it’s so important around wealth because we—and, again, I’m
getting a little bit ahead of myself, but we think wealth is physical stuff, dollar bills, bank balances,
and it’s not. Just as the more you give of your knowledge, the more knowledge you have. The
more you teach, the more you have to teach. Right? You know that. If you’ve ever taught
anything, like, you just learn more and more and more about it; you get stronger and more brilliant
in it. You have more knowledge, the more you teach. Imagine if you could know and come from
a consciousness that the more you spend or invest or circulate your abundance, the more of it
you have, not the less, but the more of it. That’s what we’re going to get into. That’s what you’re
going to learn to master, and it all comes down to having that consciousness of having, of having,
of understanding the first principle, that it’s all within you. And that most of us come from a
consciousness of not having.

And that’s why the whole emergence model is different than, even a lot of the metaphysical and
spiritual and personal development models, because so many of those when they’re using laws
of attraction and all this stuff, they’re still coming from an underlying premise that I don’t have. I
don’t yet have, but I’m going to use this law of attraction now to attract it. I don’t yet have, but I’m
going to use this to manifest it, or achieve it, or whatever. So you must start, that’s why I say,
from that premise you may manifest a bigger paycheck, but you end up just being broke in a
higher income bracket, because you’re coming from a place of I don’t yet have; I’m not yet
enough. When the truth is, you already have it all you already are it all. You already are more
than enough, and that’s why in one scripture it says, he who has more shall be given, but to he
who has not, even that which he has will be taken away. It’s the state of consciousness.

That’s why I want you to really begin to notice as we go through this, and as you go through your
day. In all of your activities to make more, get more, have more, create more, do more, be more,
the most important thing is that you start and end with a consciousness of I already have. That’s
why Jesus taught, when you pray; pray believing that you already have, that you may receive.
Because if you’re praying for anything, which means you don’t have it, you’re praying a myth.
You’re setting in motion a law of lack, and you must reap what you sow.

Are you guys getting this? It’s so, so, so important; not matter what you do from this moment
forward, you want to really make it a mantra, a practice. Write it on a piece of paper and post it
everywhere, on a stick-it. I already have it. I already am it. I’m already enough. And then every
time you sit down to do anything, or get up to do anything, or pick up a phone to do anything, or
open up your inbox to write a email, or—you look at that in your wallet, on your mirror, on your
computer. I already have it all. I already am it all. I’m already more than enough. It’s already
done. Take a breath. Feel into that. (deep breaths) And then take your action from there, and
your action. You might even notice from there you ask, do I still want to take this action? Do I
still need to? And you might notice it shifts.

And so, this comes down to one of the core, big bucket principles that I call the great reversal,
and it’s really gets us to the end of getting. And, by the way folks, I know I’m laying a lot of track
here; this is to really help you have an understanding of the principles and the paradigms. We’re
laying a foundation, and there’s so much in here. This is what I mean about listening to it again
and again. And, you know, really because if you just get a bunch of more techniques or tools, but
this doesn’t become a new state of consciousness, it’s ultimately all for naught. And we’re going
to build on this. It’s going to get increasingly more active, more interactive and more practical as
we go.

So this is the great reversal, when you understand that everything is within you, you really
understand that almost everything we’ve been taught about life, and almost everything that we’ve
been taught to do to make life better is exactly the opposite of the way life really works. We’ve

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 11


been taught a completely outside in world, but it really is an inside out world. And I don’t want
you to say, oh, I’ve heard this all before. Because that’s the ego trying to get you to not really get
the implications of this, because the implications are earth shattering when you really get this,
when you start to see how much of your life has been, and is, built on the exact opposite of how
life really operates. And that’s why it’s felt like you’ve been pedaling uphill with brakes on, and
that’s why, you know, the very word evil is live spelled backwards. Evil is live backwards. Get it?

The devil is just lived backwards. So when you experience evil, of any nature, negativity, lack,
limitation, all that is is the outcome, the result, of living backwards, of living in opposition to the
principles of life, to the way life really works. And when we talk about being tempted by the devil,
we’re being tempted to live according to principles that are in opposition to the way life really
works. So if you’re tempted to go out and get something, and, in the most extreme version,
you’re tempted to take or steal what’s not yours, the devil made me do it. That’s right. The belief
to live in opposition to the principles of real life made you do it. That’s the great tempter; the great
tempter is these false beliefs that are all based on a principle that life is outside of us, and we
need to go get it. And when you do that you are living backwards, and you get evil. You get evil
circumstances, evil people, at most extreme levels, and you just get negative, lack, limitation at
the lesser levels.

And I love this poem by Robert Browning, and it’s called “The Imprisoned Splendor.” Truth is
within ourselves; it takes no rise from outward things. Whatever you may believe. There is an
inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness; and around, wall upon wall, the gross flesh
hems it in, this perfect, clear perception which is truth. A baffling and perverting carnal mesh
binds it, and makes all error. And to KNOW, rather consists in opening out away whence the
imprisoned splendor may escape, than in effecting an entry for a light supposed to be without.

So he’s saying truth is in you, and it gets walled around by the flesh, meaning the body and
fleshly thoughts, the material beliefs, which causes us to believe that it’s something outside of us.
This baffling, perverting carnal mesh; carnal mesh, meaning the limited belief, the mortal beliefs,
that we’re separate, that we’re literally a material body separate from our good, and it’s out there
somewhere. That that bind us and makes all error. And to know, he capitalizes know. Consists
rather to open out a way where this imprisoned splendor can escape, where this infinite
storehouse of riches can come out of us. Rather than effecting an entry for the light supposed to
be without. Rather than trying to find a way to bring something outside of us into us, you see?
So he’s saying the same thing.

This poem is all about emergence, which is the mystical truth all great masters have taught.
When Buddha taught to go seek Nirvana and to release craving and aversion. When Jesus
taught to seek first the kingdom of heaven and not take any anxious thought for the world out
there, and to pray believing you already have. It’s all same thing. I and my father are one. Same
thing. It’s saying that you are already one with the creative principle of all life.

Another metaphor I love to bring this home is the metaphor of Niagara Falls. Some of you may
have heard me use this, but that if you look at Niagara Falls, which is one of the wonders of the
world, I believe. It’s a great waterfall in, I think it’s in Canada. But it’s basically, Niagara Falls
isn’t a thing of itself; Niagara Falls is just that place where Lake Erie pours forth, where Lake Erie
pours forth in all of its fullness, this massive body of water. Somebody just came along and
called it Niagara, Niagara Falls, right? But there is no Niagara Falls separate from Lake Erie. If
you take Lake Erie out of the picture, there’s no Niagara Falls. Niagara Falls doesn’t have its own
water supply, its own power, its own beauty, its own intelligence, its own shape and form even.
All of that is created by the Lake Erie pouring forth at that unique point, that unique outlet.

You are the same. You are a unique outlet of this infinite spirit, this infinite abundance, this
infinite power and beauty and inexhaustible supply. And you notice Niagara Falls, it goes 24/7,
inexhaustibly. It’s always new, always renewed, always restored, never runs dry, never runs out.
Now if Niagara Falls could have self consciousness and know that it, believe it was its own life, its

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 12


own thing, and if then suddenly looked at all this water pouring through. It’s like, oh my god; I
better conserve this water, because, you know, pretty soon it’s going to run out. It would start to
build a dam, and block Lake Erie, and eventually it would run out. If it started to go, oh my god,
there’s so much power here, you know, and I have to really put some force into it because all this
power to keep it going; it would get in the way of Lake Erie, and it would block it, and eventually it
would lose its power and its force. But luckily, it doesn’t have self consciousness.

The same is true for us, when we believe we’re the source; we’re the supply; we’re the power,
instead of knowing it’s all within us, and we can activate, generate and co-create with it, and allow
it. We are blocking it; we’re creating resistance to it; we’re damming it up. So thinking of Niagara
Falls, thinking of this inexhaustible force of abundance; it’s always ready to pour through you, to
be circulated and shared. And the more you let go and let it flow, the more it shows up, and the
more it flows, and the more it pours. I want you to really contemplate that image as it applies to
your life. And, so you stop judging by appearances; you stop looking outside of you and thinking
that what you have in your bank account, or what you have in your house, or what’s going on in
your current job or job market or economy that that is the source of your good and that is the
capacity of your good. No.

If Niagara Falls looked down into the pool of water beneath it and thought that was the source of
its good and its power, again, if it could it would end up blocking itself. It would start hoarding and
slowing down the fall, so that it would have more and more and hold onto it. But when you
understand that you are backed up by this infinite source, then you can look at bank account, you
can look at whatever’s going on in the world and not be afraid, not judge by that appearance, not
make decisions based on it. And this gets into what we’re going to talk about, expanding in the
face of contraction, because it’s all pouring through you, infinitely and inexhaustibly.

So, I’m going to pause right now and open up some questions, because we’re going to jump into
the next stage here which is going to get into the seven gifts and into what happens when we
make something outside of us our source and our power, and how the universe is set up to betray
us when we do, but I want to just answer a few questions, just to make sure you guys are clear,
or you have any questions about what I’ve covered so far about how it relates to your life. And
there’s quite a few of you on the line, so I don’t promise I’ll get to all of you every single time I
open it up for questions, but you know how to do questions. You just hit 5*, and I’m going to start
with the question right here.

And who do I have here? Hi there. Can you hear me?

Carrie: Hi.

Derek: Hi, who’s this?

Carrie: Carrie.

Derek: Hi, Carrie. How can I help you? What’s your question?

Carrie: Wow. It’s been a long time to get a hold of you. Thank you. I have been
working a great deal with your program, prior to this, and what I’m really feeling
is, maybe it’s quantum healing that’s needed, I’m not sure, but I’m just truly
feeling like something is holding me back against my will. The more I try to do
this, it just it seems like I’m going against something.

Derek: So what are you trying to do?

Carrie: Just create stability and really the major attitudes that come up are trust issues
for me, become unstuck, and create stability in my life.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 13


Derek: So what are you afraid’s going to happen if you don’t have stability?

Carrie: Well, I’ve just gone through a loss. I had three major deaths happen this past
year, my mother, my fiancé died of a sudden heart attack, and all of my family; so
I’ve had a lot of loss. And I’m truly not trying to start a whole victim situation, but
I would really like to move forward with creating my own stability and knowing
really that it’s inside of me.

Derek: Yes. Well let me ask you this, so why do you want to get away from the whole
victim situation? Do you, what I would invite you to look at is, first of all, when
you’ve had that kind of loss it’s very natural to let things kind of fall apart a little
bit, to have grieving, to really give yourself permission to not have it all together.
And have you given yourself the time and the permission to really grieve, to really
take care of yourself, to really reach out for lots of help? Have you done those
things? Have you asked for lots of help? Have you reached out for help? Have
you let yourself be vulnerable, and let things, you know, tell me if, have you done
that?

Carrie: Yeah, I have done that actually. I’ve worked with even various hospices through
this. The long story short is I am my sole support; I’m head of household for two
children, so the ability to take off the necessary time has been, hasn’t been able
to do that, and I’m an independent contractor, so I work as work comes up.
That’s how I get paid, so there’s always that.

Derek: So, Carrie, I want you to notice, when I said have you done that for yourself you
said, yes I have, and then you followed up by saying, but actually because I’m
the sole person in the house and all this stuff that the ability to actually take off
the time to do for myself hasn’t been possible.

Carrie: No, I haven’t.

Derek: So you haven’t really done that for yourself.

Carrie: No, I’ve got to say, no I haven’t.

Derek: Right, and that’s my intuition. That’s the first lie that you’ve been telling yourself.
So we got to bust ourselves on that. And the second lie is that because you’re
the woman of the house, and you’re a sole proprietor, independent contractor,
that you can’t do that for you, when in fact, you absolutely can. Now, it’s going to
look different based on your circumstances, but even within that situation there is
lots of areas and openings and opportunities to take care of yourself and to ask
for help. And my instinct is that you’ve learned to be a person who takes care of
others, who’s trying to, you know, hold it together, and keep it together, and that’s
been kind of your story, right?

Carrie: Yup.

Derek: What’s that?

Carrie: Yes.

Derek: Yeah, and that comes from something that happened when you were young
where you got the message that you found value in being the caretaker, the good
girl, the person that had it together, the person who helped others, and you got
shamed or feared or somehow judged when you just wanted what you wanted for
you. That there’s guilt and shame around just having what I want, just doing

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 14


what I want, just taking care of me. That that’s somehow wrong or shameful or
selfish. Do you understand what I’m saying?

Carrie: Yes.

Derek: And that’s where your healing is, my dear. That you’re struggling and striving still
as a reaction to not be this other part of you that you don’t think is good. And it’s
built up over time a belief that there’s no other option, there’s no other way, and
maybe you even watched a parent or two struggle in that way. And the universe
wants to help you, wants to support you, wants to give you that X factor, but it
can’t as long as you think you’re doing it all yourself. You have to embrace the
vulnerable, the victim, the weak, the broken. You have to embrace the selfish,
these shadows, and we’ll get into a little more of that later.

If you’ve done some of my other work, you know what that is. And hopefully we’ll
have some time to talk more specifically about the shadow work, but I would
work on those shadows. As you embrace them and ask them what they need to
support you and to serve you, then they will start to guide you into different kinds
of actions, and just energetically as you start to fill yourself up and take care of
yourself and feel the feelings of what it feels like to be an abundant, powerful,
confident woman, which is lacking right now, that energetic set point is going to
open you up to a whole new world of possibilities.

Because the problem right now is you’re trying and trying, and doing and doing,
but you’re set to the radio station KLACK, K lack. And the information and the
guidance on that station is never going to get you to where you want to go. You
have to raise your set point. You have to start feeling like you’re an empowered,
confident, capable, wonderful, worthy individual. And you do that by taking care
of yourself, by meeting the real needs of those parts of yourself that are crying
out, and by continuing doing the work we’re talking about today, until you lift
yourself up to feeling, to that frequency. And that will now make you accessible.

Because what’s playing on station KRICH is very different than what’s playing on
KLACK. So as your vibrational set point gets lifted, you’re going to get access to
a whole new level of guidance and direction, and that happens by you embracing
these shadow parts of you rather than trying to overcome them, fix them, heal
them, which is all a form of resistance. Does this make sense, Carrie?

Carrie: Yeah, no, it does make sense. So just embrace everything, and, but how do I
embrace it? How do I talk to it? I don’t . . .

Derek: You said you’ve been working on some other programs, what other programs do
you have?

Carrie: I think I have all of your programs.

Derek: Okay, then just, in Emergeneering stage six, there’s the shadow work, and the
soul purpose blueprint.

Carrie: Okay.

Derek: There’s the shadow work, if you’re in The Best Year of Your Life group there’s, in
the archives there’s an audio for the shadow work. Use that audio, use that
shadow work, and work on those shadows.

Carrie: Will do.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 15


Derek: Awesome. Thank you, my dear, and just know that I’m holding you in prayer,
and working on you and for you as well.

Carrie: Thank you.

Derek: You’re welcome. And again, any specific questions about what we’ve been
talking about so far. I want to make sure we’re clear on that. Area code, here we
go, whoops. Who do I have here?

Kendall: Hi there.

Derek: Hi, who’s this?

Kendall: Hi, Derek. This is Kendall.

Derek: Hi, Kendall. How can I support you today?

Kendall: First of all, I just want to say this has been wonderful so far, and thanks so much
for taking my question, but I have a question about, you know, I totally get what
you’ve been describing. And I’m just wondering, for example, I know my spouse
is very sort of steeped in reality, I guess you would say, in terms of, you know,
well this is our bank account, and this is, you know, the whole KLACK kind of
thing, and I’m just wondering do you have any specific suggestions? Or maybe
this is something you’ll address later, about how to manage relationships where
people might not be on board with this approach?

Derek: Absolutely. It’s a very important part of it, and remember again, because the law
and the power and the cause of your entire world is 100% in your consciousness
that nobody and nothing outside of you can ever limit, block, delay or deny your
good. So that’s how that principle applies to relationships. Now there’s still a
little bit of finessing and some tools to understand how to work with the person,
but that’s the first thing to understand. It’s like when I’ve been in a relationship or
a job, some of you’ve heard some of my stories, as I practiced this work and
showed up in that job or that relationship more and more congruent with my truth,
my vision, my authentic self, which required courage to step in, and step up, and
speak up, and act from my power.

Not trying to manipulate, control or change the other person, but to act from my
power, my truth, my authenticity, what that always did then is they, the other
person or environment, would push back, and it would show me where else I was
hiding in fear, shame, guilt or lack, and then I would get to go back and work on
that even more. Until I was able to hold my place in that expanded space, so
they might still push back, but it wouldn’t push my buttons. That’s how I would
know I’d grown, and then the next stage of that was that I would be able to
respond from a deeper, more empowered place. So they might push back still,
and without judgment, without reaction, I would then be able to respond and say,
well, you know, and have a conversation or a dialogue that comes from a place
of power.

As you’re able to do that, one of two things will happen. That person or that
environment will begin to shift and change to be willing to play with you at that
higher level, because your environment must reflect your internal frequency, your
internal reality. It always does; it always will. So they will have to shift or change
to play with you at that higher level, so as you get free you’re creating a space for
them to be free. You’re creating a space for them to grow and to expand. Or, if

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 16


that person, place or thing is unwilling or unable, then you will be moved out of
that environment, or they will. Now, that can be a challenging thing, because,
and one of the sticking points, because as we grow some people, places, and
things will not stay with us. Simple as that.

And there will be some transitionary periods where it will appear like it’s not going
to stay with us. Like, it will be kind of shaky. I’m not saying this is going to
happen with you, by the way; I’m just kind of giving you the lay of the land for
everybody. And we have to keep holding our space, like there was a time for
me, when I was doing this work, where one by one all my family members began
to kind of go a little crazy about me. My mom thought I had joined a cult; my dad
thought I was going to broke and poor. My brother thought I’d freaked out on
Jesus; my sister thought I was just totally weird and strange, and friends were
like, you know, who are you? What are you, and who, you know, what alien’s
come down and replaced you with a pod person?

And I had to go through a transition of feeling very lonely, feeling cut off, rejected,
judged, abandoned, afraid. And keep doing the work, and finding people that
were in agreement with me, that were supportive, which is why these groups and
environments are so important. And as I grew strong through that, eventually
they all came back. In this case they all came back, you know, in different ways.
You know, my mom is totally on the path, and is totally an inspired, spiritually
conscious individual. My brother is now on his own path. My dad comes to me
for advice now.

It’s like it’s all changed, but it took me having the courage and the strength, and I
can see in retrospect now; I needed to go through that to be the person I am
today, to be able to fulfill the vision and the mission that’s trying to unfold through
me. And so this is what you’re being tasked with. And, again, I’m painting a
large picture; it may be much more simple than this. It may just simply be you
staying true to your thing; you having a conversation with him. You honoring,
and having compassion for, where he is, and really listening to his feedback.
Like, you know, he may very well be pushing your buttons, and you may be very
well having judgment about his “reality based thinking”. But in fact, he may be,
and in fact I’m intuiting, he represents the shadow side for you of structure,
responsibility, pragmatism, practicality, real groundedness. Do you understand?

Kendall: Yes.

Derek: And so, it’s like, my dad represented that for me, you know, he was all about, you
know, being in the world, and being really responsible and practical and all that
stuff, and I was all about creative and artistry and spirituality. He was a shadow
for me, but as I embraced that shadow I was not only able to be a light in the
world, but to pay my light bill. So, your husband’s representing a shadow for you,
as you embrace anything about him that you have a judgment about you’re going
to embody and integrate some really awesome things within yourself. You’re
going to create an environment where he gets to not feel judged at all, and you’ll
be able to freely honor, embrace, respect, learn from, what he has to offer. And
then, in that space, if he’s willing to play, he’ll start to give that back to you as
well. Does that make sense?

Kendall: Yeah, it does.

Derek: Is that helpful?

Kendall: That’s awesome. Yes, very helpful. Thank you so much.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 17


Derek: You’re welcome. Thanks for the question. Yeah, it’s really important as we’re
doing this work; it’s why I also said get a buddy involved in the mastermind
group, you know, hook up with people. You definitely have that support, because
you need it. And, but it’s also a very powerful ground to work on in the
relationships that you’re in. Those are your gymnasiums. You don’t want to get
rid of them; you don’t want to avoid them. You know, when I was at that job
where I got fired three times, as I kept showing up and showing up and showing
up, that made me strong enough to carry the frequency to the next level. So
whatever you’re struggling with right now in your relationships or environments,
it’s a good, good opportunity.

So, okay, I’ll open it up for questions again a little bit later, but I want to jump into the next piece
here. And that is that the universe is set up to betray you, and what that is whenever you,
because everything is within you, because everything’s already inside of you, you already are the
power, the source of everything. Whenever you make anything or anyone outside of you your
source then the universe is set up to eventually, incrementally or sometimes dramatically, kind of
slap you upside the head, and the more you get on a path, the more you are intentional, the more
you’re growing spiritually, and activating these higher frequencies, the more and more that that is
going to show up in your life.

Things are going to stop working that used to work, and I tell my story about how, you know, I had
cloistered myself. I was doing my monk thing, living like a monk, and living off of my bank
account. And I was doing all this deep work, all this great spiritual work, and my bank account
was dwindling, dwindling, dwindling, until I was eventually broke. And I got to tell you, I was
pretty pissed. I was like, how is this possible, god? I’ve done all this great work. I’m such, I’m
like Mr. Spiritual, and nothing’s working. All my money’s falling apart; I’m about to be evicted, and
it’s just, something’s wrong here. And I remember, I finally laid down the gauntlet one night, and I
said, I’m going to sit in my mediation chair. I’m not going to get up until I know that this stuff is
either real, or it’s not. But one way or the other, I’m going to know tonight.

And I sat in that chair, and I meditated and prayed until the dusk became night time, and the
crickets came out for their nightly chorus, and at some point in the middle of the night, this voice
came through. And it said, you made your bank account god. You made your bank account your
source of safety and security, and thou shalt have no other gods before me. That when you
make anything outside of you your source, you are making it god, and the universe will betray
you. It might look like that person betraying you, that job betraying you, that project or client
betraying you, but it’s really a principle, and it’s setting it up because you put something outside of
you as your source, and the source is within you. The presence of god, the divine spirit, the
intelligence within you, that is your real source.

And here’s why this is so important, for those of you that really want to live a life free, and
liberated, and empowered, and visionary, and fulfill your true destiny. You cannot do that as long
as you think someone or something outside of you is your source. Why? Because you will
inevitably conform and adapt to circumstances and conditions and people. You will become a
prisoner, a servant, to the world of appearances, or to some person, or some place, or some
occupation, and you will lose your signal to the guidance that’s trying to emerge from within you,
because who you are, and what you’re here to do and bring is unprecedented. And so, wherever
you’re putting your source outside of you, it’s going to start to break down and fail you, and for
good reason.

Thank god that it works that way. So you can get cast back in, so that you do not have to take
your cue from the world at all. So you can speak your truth, and stand in your truth, and create,
and innovate, and be, and bring the gifts you’re meant to bring. Regardless of what your family—
you know, if I was thinking my family was my source, you know, my dad offered a lot of carrots.
He would pay for my college education; he would help me with this, and help me with that, if I just

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 18


followed his dictums or dictates. And he meant well. Don’t get me wrong, but if I had made him
my source, I might not be talking to you right now. I might have gone off and become a business
man, or a brain surgeon, which is nothing wrong with those, but they would be wrong for me. And
I wouldn’t have gotten the clear guidance from the source within and been able to get strong
enough to live from that, to learn to live more from insight rather than eyesight, and depend more
on the invisible supply than the outer appearances.

So, it’s set up this way that you get stronger, and stronger, and stronger in seeking only this inner
connection as your source for everything. And then you can walk through this world free and
unencumbered, unentrapped; no longer an indentured servant to the world. As it says in the
Bible, choose this day who you will serve, god or mammon, which means the truth of your being
or man or materiality or the beliefs of the world. Are you going to serve the beliefs that tell you
that you’re lacking, and you’re limited, and you need someone or something outside of you, or are
you going to choose the truth of your being, which is that you are the source and supply of
everything? Who are you going to serve? Who are you going to give your allegiance to? Where
are you going to commit to and put your trust and your faith in? In this presence and this
consciousness within your very soul, which is the source of everything, or in a person, place, or
thing outside of you, which is nothing but an effect, an old thought.

There’s no power out there. There’s nothing out there. Take a dollar bill, take $100 bill and put it
on the table, and what will it do for you? Nothing. It’s inert, lifeless, powerless; it only has power
when you move it, and what’s moving it is your consciousness. And what created it was your
consciousness. So I want to do an exercise with you to help you to begin to come into an
awareness of this, and where you may be putting your source outside of you.

So I just invite you to close your eyes now. Take a breath. I know there’s a lot here for you, just
keep breathing, taking notes, opening up. And just take a, and just know that you can listen back
to this again. I want you to look at an area where you’ve made something or someone your god
or your source . . . Maybe it’s your job, your bank account, your spouse . . . It can be the source
of your money or your wealth, because ultimately we’re dealing with spiritual supply, a principle
that everything is within you. You can also focus on another nonmonetary area if you can’t find a
money area, although, of course, that’s the main issue we’re working on right now. Just notice
where you’ve made some material object or person, your house, your stocks, your bonds, you
things, you job, again, your spouse, whatever, family member, a source of wealth and security, or
your bank account; your source of supply and security.

And close your eyes, and just look at that relationship to that person, place, or thing. And notice
how you feel in it. Just notice the feelings you have about that. Notice the feelings of
disempowerment, maybe stress; stress that you have to be a certain way, or do things that
maybe you don’t want to, or that aren’t authentic in order to keep that supply or that security that
this person, place, or thing represents. Maybe there’s some resentment around there because
you have to say yes when you really want to say no, and you have to say no to your own yes,
because you think that you just can’t. You know, you’re a sole proprietor; you’re an independent
contractor, and you just, you have to say yes, even when you’re, you know, what to say no. Just
notice that relationship and any feelings of guilt, resentment, shame, fear, anger. No judgment,
just awareness.

But let yourself feel the pain, let yourself feel the pain of the suffering this wrong relationship to
your source of wealth and security is causing you. Because you can’t heal what you don’t feel.
And the ego keeps us from feeling the pain and associating the pain with the specific problem. It
either redirects the pain and projects it somewhere else, where we have no control, or it doesn’t
let us feel it; because, if we really associate enough pain to a behavior, we will change. So let
yourself feel it without judgment. Just notice what it’s costing you in terms of self worth, self
esteem, saying yes when you really mean no, like I said, saying no to yourself when you really
want to say yes. Notice the high price you’re already paying.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 19


And maybe you even noticed despite all of this twisting and contorting and controlling, you still
don’t feel safe or secure. Maybe you still don’t have enough to meet all your needs; maybe it’s
even totally backfired, and you lost that job, or you lost your mate. Just notice where life seems
to be betraying you in this area, and remember, it’s set up to betray you when you’ve made
something or someone else your god or your source. You might even know that over the past
months or even years, that the more spiritual work you’ve done, the more you’ve set your
intentions and prayed and affirmed around this area, that actually it’s gotten worse. It’s kind of
like putting the gas on and the brake at the same time.

So now just feeling that feeling we’re going to shift now to begin to heal this. First through the
remembrance of the letter of truth, which we’ve been talking about, which is that this person,
place, or thing never was, and never will be, your source of anything. I don’t care if you don’t
have a job, and your spouse pays all the bills; they’re still not your source. At best, they’re a
channel for your good. But to whatever the extent the good is coming through them and to you,
it’s coming from your consciousness; really hear this. Nothing can come into your experience
except through your consciousness. So even if your job, or your partner, or your boss, or your
spouse, or your family member is paying for your bills or whatever, though it seems to be coming
from them, it’s really coming from your consciousness through them as a channel. They’re a
channel.

So just take a moment right now and reflect on all the ways good is coming into your life, whether
from a partner, a family member, a job, the government, wherever it’s coming from, and
acknowledge that that’s a demonstration of the consciousness of abundance in your own
consciousness. Remind yourself now that it’s not coming from any of those people, places, or
things; it’s coming through them, but as long as you know that it’s coming from your
consciousness, no matter what changes in the conditions, your consciousness will always show
up as a new channel. Feel that. It could not come into your experience unless it was coming
through your consciousness, and your consciousness will always show up as a new channel as
long as you know that it’s coming from your consciousness. This isn’t mere semantics; it’s all
about an activity of consciousness.

So you need to remember and remind yourself that you are the source. You’re the source of
everything that’s come into your life, no matter where it’s come from. Even now, everything that’s
coming into your life right now on this call, the wisdom, the knowledge, the insight; it’s not coming
from Derek; it’s coming through Derek as a channel, but it’s coming from your consciousness, or
you wouldn’t be here, and you wouldn’t be able to experience it. Everything is coming from you,
even though it may be coming through other people, places, and things. This is a key paradigm
shift. Feel that. Feel the implications of that. The more you remember you are the source of
everything showing up, you have now stepped into a having consciousness. You understand?

So if you’re employer or your partner is giving you money, and normally you would look at that as
meaning you don’t have anything, but they do, and they’re giving it to you. The minute you step
into realizing you have, and it’s just coming through them. You don’t have to say it out loud. You
don’t have to say to your husband or wife or partner. You know, they’re giving you money; you
don’t have to say, that’s coming from you. That’s just coming through you, buddy. You don’t
have to say that out loud, but you have to know it. Now you have a have consciousness; I
remember when my wife caught this on a new level, and she began to embrace it. I suddenly got
a couple really big jobs, because she was playing the role of the mostly at home mother
homeschooling our children, so she didn’t have the seeming source of abundance, but because
she was activating her consciousness I became the channel of more and more abundance. And I
was very aware that while it was coming through me, it wasn’t coming from me, that here
consciousness was creating the conditions for me to be a bigger channel.

So even if you’re in a situation where you don’t seem to have any clear, accessible abundance,
as you realize this in consciousness, because consciousness has infinite organizing power. It will
find a channel to bring it to you. I remember one client who had this realization, and even though

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 20


they didn’t have a job suddenly a relative called up and said they won the lottery, and they were
sending them a check for $40,000. Now that abundance didn’t come from the relative. It came
through them, but it was my client’s consciousness that demonstrated it for them, and they didn’t
even have to have a job. Do you get the implications of this?

When I had that realization, you know, when I sat down and said, this stuff works or it doesn’t
work, and the voice said thou will have no other gods before me, and the source of all supply
within you, and stop putting it on anybody else. And a peace came over me, and over the next
few days I was at peace even though situations hadn’t changed. I suddenly got a call from an old
agent. I was an actor and had quit acting, and they said somebody just called looking for you out
of the blue. They want you to go on an audition. I knew that was answered prayer. I went on the
audition; I booked it. I made more for two days work than I would have made for an entire year. I
made a year’s worth of abundance in two days. Now the key to that is that I would never have
imagined that; I could have never thought that up. I would have never put that on my vision
board, but when I made contact with the source within me, and I cultivated that, and I leaned on
that, and I learned to depend on that, it, through its infinite organizing power, it brought the
quickest, easiest, most efficient channel into my life to meet my needs. That’s what we’re tapping
into here.

So take another deep breath. And feel your way back into this awareness that you are the source
of everything that’s showing up in your life, everything. You can start to, and I invite you to, play a
game with this. Look around you, and know that even, no matter what it is, the furniture, the
walls, the plumbing, whatever is showing up in your life, it can only show up as an activity of your
consciousness. The support that’s showing up in your life, the love, the friendship, the
community, the opportunity, the everything that’s showing up, even though it seems like it’s
coming from other places, people, things. It’s all an activity of your consciousness, or it would
never show up. Think about how rich and abundant you must already be to be on this phone call,
to have some level of shelter, some level of, most likely, indoor plumbing, access to public
libraries, to the resources on the internet. That is all wealth. And the more you realize that’s an
activity of your consciousness, and you start giving thanks for it and blessing it, now you are
building up an I have consciousness, and to those that have more shall be given.

So feel that. I am the source. Feel what it feels like to be the source. That’s the key here. You
felt what it felt like a moment ago to make somebody else your source and the pain of that. Now
you’re coming into the feeling of I am the source of everything that’s appearing in my life. Feel,
feel the expansiveness of that, even if it’s just a glimmer. Now imagine that you got whatever it is
you’re waiting for right now, whatever job, or money, or whatever your need is in that area where
you’ve been making someone or something your source. Now in your mind’s eye, see yourself
getting that. Take a deep breath, and drop into that. See it; feel it; imagine it. Breathe into it.
Allow yourself to imagine how you would spend that money, how you would invest it, how you
would express in that new opportunity, relationship, how you would live.

Take a deep breath, and as you exhale, let that vision multiply times ten. Just see yourself
getting a windfall. You win the lottery; your business explodes with success; your project
becomes a hit; you get asked to be in some incredible project or opportunity. See yourself
expanded in the success, the opportunity, the love, the congratulations, the support, everywhere
you go. Just play into that vision. Breathe into it; feel it. So now you’ve loaded in the feeling, I
am the source of everything in my life, and now you’re loading in the feeling of what it feels like to
have what you’ve been waiting for or trying to get by thinking someone else is the source. Take a
deep breath, and let that feeling expand as you exhale. Again, giving it a color, seeing it and
feeling it expand to fill your body.

And now notice what are the qualities, just notice. What are the qualities of that vision?
Are you feeling more confident, more joyful, more expanded, more inspired? Even if it’s just a
glimmer, just notice what does it feel like? What are those qualities? And you can either
remember those or jot those down. And breathe and let it expand even more. And notice in this

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 21


vision where you’ve gotten what you wanted, and you’re feeling is like you’re the source, and
you’re living it large, who are you being? Notice who you’re being, your character. Are you more
outgoing, more generous, more confident, more playful, spontaneous? Notice who you’re being.

And just feel the energy of the feeling, the energy of the being. Take a deep breath. And again,
exhale and radiate that into your body, into your environment, into everyone that’s a part of this
situation. And you can take a moment and jot down those qualities of being if you want, or just
remember them. You’re going to have a moment, in a moment, to write a little bit more about
this.

Now, wherever that situation is that you were trying to get, or making someone or something your
source, take another deep breath. Now that you’ve given it to yourself, you’ve activated and filled
yourself to some extent, radiate this to that person, place, and thing. Radiate these qualities of
feeling and being. See this energy and color saturating that person, place, or thing. Feel what it
feels like now you’re the source, you’re the generative being, you’re the giver. You’re not looking
to them anymore; you are the source of everything that shows up. You’re radiating it; you’re
generating it. Feel the expanded power. Take another deep breath and radiate it beyond them
now to the planet, to everybody in this group. Just feel that you’re able to generate as much of
this quality as you want. You are the source. You are cause; you are not at the effect. You are
the law unto your life, no one and nothing else is a power or has jurisdiction over you.

And now from this place I want you to look at this relationship or this situation, and then ask from
this feeling, from this place, if I really knew and believed that I was the source, and from what I’m
feeling now, who would I be in this relationship or situation? How would I hold myself? What
would I do? If I really believe this now, if this is really true, and it is. Who would I be in this
situation or relationship? How would I hold myself, or what would I do? What would I start
doing? What would I do more of? What would I stop doing? What would I do less of? What
would I do differently? Breathe and listen.

How can I start living into this truth of my abundant being, of being source in this area or beyond,
today, this week? So I want to give you just a couple minutes now to think about that, to
contemplate that. To take notes about the qualities of feeling that came up, the qualities of being
that came up, and check in and listen for guidance of how you can step into being that. What it
would look like to be or do differently if you really were the source in this area. And just take a
few minutes to do that.

You can write down the feelings and the beings in one category and the doing, and these are the
three pillars of your soul purpose, of your vision in this area. And you need all three to be
engaged, feeling, being, and doing. And you can close your eyes again, and ask the question
again, and check with it. And if the guidance is really vague, like I would love myself more. Ask,
and what would that look like? And keep asking until you get something that’s actionable, that
concrete; even if it seems strange, just write that down.

And be patient with yourself, be patient with the guidance. Sometimes when you ask you don’t
get an immediate response. The asking with sincerity and the creating the space, creates a
vacuum that will begin to be filled in with new insights, breakthroughs, or just a shift in your
behavior over time. So just keep asking and taking notes. Just another minute here.

All right. Let’s take a nice deep breath, and just feel a sense of (sigh) gratitude in the work you’re
doing on this call, on this training. You’ve already done a few exercises; you’ve taken a lot of
information, and we’ve still got some really good stuff to go talking about the seven gifts and the
money mastery map. We’re going to get into that in a moment here, but I want to just open it up
for a few questions about anything we’ve covered, about that process. So you can just put your
hand up if you have any questions, by hitting 5*.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 22


Derek: We’ll start right here. Who do I have here? Hi there. Who’s this? Can you hear
me?

Regina: Hello?

Derek: Hello. Who’s this?

Regina: This is Regina.

Derek: Hi, Regina. How can I help you?

Regina: Hi, Derek, wow, I was just pleasantly surprised. Wow. I was a religious science
practitioner from 2000 to 2006. And I’m now, the thing that’s really, for me right
now, I’m 55, and the last 10 years I haven’t been expressing, whether it’s wanting
to be expressed through me. You know, being a support of myself and others in
their own freedom and expansion, to keep it succinct, from a spiritual
groundwork. And what I’m recognizing is that I have a lot of deep sadness, you
know; I’m 55. I just turned 55, and I have a lot of deep sadness about the last 10
years, about not being more proactive and living, you know, my passion and
destiny, and I don’t have, well, I don’t have clarity about what that looks like, and
I know that that’s resistance.

So I felt it was simply important for me to really express the deep sadness that
I’m experiencing and recognizing that it’s important for me to feel that, and
recognizing that 55 is simply as number. I guess my question would be, how do I
move through that sadness where it doesn’t become another thing that holds me
back, and where I can utilize it to really inspire myself to move forward.

Derek: Absolutely. And, you know, as I teach, we don’t try to overcome, get rid of, or get
away from the dark, so called darkness. That the darkness is like the deep, dark
soil, and the deeper the roots grow, the higher the branches can go. So the
deeper the roots grow into the dark, the higher the branches can reach towards
the light and the deeper the roots, the richer the fruits. So we don’t shy away
from any of that. We absolutely embrace it, and one of the ways to with things
gone past, relationships, jobs, missed opportunities, whatever is there’s a three
stage thing to it.

The first is that you acknowledge that it’s changed; it’s gone. Like, that particular
period of time is gone; you’re not going to get that back, from a human
standpoint. Like, if it’s a relationship, and it’s changed, and you’ve broken up,
that’s changed; it’s happened. You acknowledge that, and you let yourself grieve
the loss.

The second thing is you harvest all of the good. So you reflect back on this
period of time, and you go, what are the blessings, and the lessons, and the
good from this? How has it helped me grow? What has it helped me develop?
What has it helped me learn? How has it helped me to ripen? What are the
lessons that it’s calling me to learn? So I may not have gotten them all yet, but
it’s because of this that I will get them, and that I’m being called to get them.
What is the deeper qualities that are being developed to emerge in me as a
result of this? So you just harvest all of the good until you can’t come up with
any other good, and you start, and you just have like a whole, you could just talk
a whole bunch about all the good that has come out of this and will continue to
come out of this.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 23


And then the third part is you forgive everything else. You forgive everyone and
everything, especially yourself. So you acknowledge it’s gone; you grieve it. You
harvest all the good, and you forgive everything else, including, and especially,
yourself. And this cannot, this is cyclical, so it’s not like you just do it all linearly
one day, and you’re done. It can move through deeply and powerfully, but it
depends on its purpose. Sometimes it might keep cycling back around and
working on you at deeper and deeper layers. And, you know, 10 years from now
you might have a little something and discover you’re forgiving and letting go of
another little piece of it, and that’s okay. But that’s where you start, okay?

So that’s the healing, purification process that we can use for any sense of loss,
so that we take full advantage of it, we get the full blessing and benefit of it, and
we let it work on us. We let the grieving and the loss be like that forest fire that is
necessary to crack open certain seeds. We don’t try to put the fire out. Now,
that being said, and as long as you’re doing that, then we move into the next
stage, which is now we come back to the letter of truth, the principles of truth.
And that is who and what you really are is still whole, complete, and intact, and
hasn’t missed anything. Because who and what you really are isn’t in time and
space, which is just a mental construct.

It’s like the analogy of the, I use acorns a lot, so I’ll just use acorns. So, you
know, the guy goes out to plant acorns, and throws a bunch of acorns into the
ground to plant them. And, you know, one of them gets stuck in the pocket, and
gets hung up in a closet, and sits there for 10 years. And 10 years later, he puts
the jacket back on, goes out to plant acorns again or whatever, or just finds that
one in his pocket, and goes and puts it in the ground and plants it. Does the soil
go to that acorn, whoa, buddy. Sorry, you missed your chance. Right? It’s like,
no, you were supposed to get planted 10 years ago; I can’t grow you now. You
know, I’m sorry you come from a long line of acorns that never really made much
of themselves.

Regina: What I just got, the soil said, something like, this is what I’ve been waiting for.
I’ve been waiting for you, or something like that.

Derek: Exactly. Exactly. That’s what the soil says, and I just got chills when you said
that. That’s beautiful. That’s beautiful, exactly. The soil goes, I mean literally,
the soil rejoices. The soil says, it is for this that I was created, to bring forth the
full glory of what is within you. The universe is the soil of your soul is saying
always, oh, yes. Come unto me all ye that are heavy laden and labor, and I will
give you rest. I will go forth and do the work appointed you. It’s saying it’s for
this that I exist to allow the full potential of your being to come forth. It never
says to you, sorry, you missed out.

Regina: Right.

Derek: Because it’s not personal, it’s principle. God is no respecter of persons, so the
spiritual principle doesn’t know your biological age. It doesn’t know your family
history; it doesn’t know the cultural conditions. It doesn’t know the country of
origin; it doesn’t know the color of your skin. It doesn’t know the economic
conditions. The spiritual principle and pattern of your being doesn’t know about
any of that. Think about that, folks. It doesn’t even know or care about any of
that; it only knows its own perfection. It only knows its own oneness with all life,
all supply, all completeness, and there’s nothing in its way. And so, when you
connect back with that principle, that pattern, and you cultivate the right
conditions, and the ripe and ready conditions, no matter what, it will, and it must,
come forth in your life. Does that make sense?

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 24


Regina: I’m right there with you. Yes it does. Thank you so much, Derek. Thank you.

Derek: You’re so welcome, and also it’s like when you hear the scriptural passage, the
years the locusts have eaten shall be restored unto you. Behold, I make all
things new. It’s saying, I thought . . .

Regina: I know it’s true.

Derek: Yeah.

Regina: I know that to be true. Yeah.

Derek: So I want to suggest something just to bust you a little bit.

Regina: Cool.

Derek: You don’t know that to be true. You intellectually know it, and you feel the
resonance with it, so it’s speaking to you, but if you knew it to be true it would be
totally blossoming in your life. It’s like this woman went to see Sibaba [phonetic
2:02:24.6] years ago, when he was still in a body. And she sat before him, and
he said, tell me, my dear, you know, what do you have for me today? What is
your issue? And she says, you know, what do you want to share? And she like
starts talking about the truth, and the principles of life, and everything is within us,
and it’s all within us, and we can manifest whatever we want, blah, blah, blah.

And he said, the only difference between you and me, my dear, is that I believe
what you just said, and you don’t. So, we have to be careful when we know all
this stuff, and notice how quick we are to tell ourselves, well, I know that, I
believe that. And just know if we’re having to tell ourselves and convince
ourselves, it’s because we don’t actually. It’s okay to have a process; that’s not a
problem. But getting honest with where we really are is really important, because
the ego will trick us into saying, well, I know that. And then we get frustrated and
angry and upset, well why am I not demonstrating it? And it just becomes a
resistance pattern. Does that make sense?

Regina: Yes.

Derek: Awesome. Thank you, my dear.

Regina: Thank you, Derek.

Derek: Okay, I’ll take another question here. Maybe I’ll take two more, and then we’ll
move back into the program. And for those of you, you can take a bathroom
break if you need to, whatever you need to do during the call, during this training,
because I did say it would be two to three hours of training. And who do I have
here? Who do I have here?

Judith: Hi, this is Judith.

Derek: Hi, Judith. How can I help you? What’s your question today?

Judith: I can’t believe it that I’m actually talking to you. It’s so special.

Derek: Absolutely, likewise.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 25


Judith: I just want to tell you that everything that you’re saying and sharing just
resonates so deeply with me. I do a lot of mediating, and I grew up in a religious
family, and since I was a little girl I was always seeking for more. And a lot of the
things that you’re saying, and the quotations that you’re sharing out of the Bible, I
totally resonate with it, and agree, but I feel like I’m stuck between two
paradigms. Because I was so used to living my life to pray to a god out there,
even though I knew he was within me, and I was one with him, and I was one
with others, but it never was my experience, and I didn’t know how to get there.
And so, even when you’re going through those processes with us, I can’t picture
the color. It’s almost like there’s a resistance there that I know the truth, and
when I feel the truth and I see the truth, I get so excited. When you were talking I
was looking around at all my furniture and saying, oh, it got here because I
manifested it. And I got excited, but when I try to picture myself in that kind of a
life, it’s very difficult for me to picture it, and say, can I really get there? Or how
am I going to shift into this, even though it as the truth, and I get excited about it.
When I meditate I feel like I’m there, but as soon as I’m going through my daily
life I seem to fall out of it again.

Derek: Okay, so there’s a couple things going on here, Judith. First, there’s a few levels
to this. The first one is, on a very practical level, the ability to visualize and things
like that is a skill and a muscle that you develop, and some people don’t even do
it very well, and it doesn’t matter. The ability to feel, you talk about I feel the
excitement, I feel the resonance. That’s the vision; that’s the energy. That is
your essence speaking to you, so you’re doing it right. When you start feeling . .
.

Judith: Okay, at first I couldn’t feel either, and maybe because I was trying too hard, but I
used to be quite visual, and for some reason there is an element of fear. Like, I
do carry a lot of fear, and . . .

Derek: What are you afraid of?

Judith: I feel fear every day.

Derek: What are you afraid of, Judith?

Judith: Well, actually when you were doing some of the work with us, I realized what my
fear was, and my fear was, I’m afraid of my future, and I realized that the god that
I have made in my life is my, you know, my comfort and my wealth, and so I was
focusing totally on that all the time. And that’s the fear, because of my age right
now, I’m 56, and it’s this whole fear of, am I going to, you know, I only have so
many years left, and am I going to make it?

Derek: Right. Okay.

Judith: Am I going to live comfortably in retirement? And I’ve been so focused on that,
that . . .

Derek: Yeah. So that’s . . .

Judith: And I’ve been, I’ve been through a lot of trauma throughout my life too, and that’s
where the fear started to come in. I used to always trust and have put my trust in
god, and there was a point about 10 years ago where I really trusted and
believed, and I was manifesting more things in my life, but, yeah, fear came in
because of certain situations. And now it just seems to be something that’s still
sitting there. It comes and it goes.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 26


Derek: So, Judith, so there’s a few things here. So, that is definitely one of the hypnotic
spells, where you are making comfort and convenience your source of security
and . . .

Judith: And I know, I was making that my god.

Derek: Right.

Judith: Because I think about it all the time. Constantly.

Derek: So now there’s nothing wrong with having those nice things, but when you begin
to lean on them, and make them your source, and make them your god, you are
setting yourself up for failure and for great fear, and ultimately for control, and
you’re shrinking your capacity to live and express and fulfill your visions. Now . .
.

Judith: And that’s exactly what’s happening, because I was doing really well with my
business, and now I just see it shrinking.

Derek: Right. Exactly.

Judith: And then it’s causing more fear, and so then it’s shrinking more.

Derek: Right. Exactly. So understand that that is exactly the principle of, to he or she
who has more shall be given. To he or she who has not, even that will be taken
away. So you’re focus on the fear of what’s going to be taken away, what you’re
going to lose, what you’re not going to have enough of, what if you’re not going to
have [inaudible 2:09:36.2] And even if you’re futurizing the possibility of not
having enough and fearing not having enough, what your focus is on is not
having enough, not having enough, not having enough, and so that’s what your
entire infinite supply now is going to shrink it down into an expression of not
having enough. And that will show up either as you having enough but not
feeling like it’s enough, having enough but being in constant fear of losing it, or
actually beginning to lose it.

Judith: Yeah.

Derek: So, you’re right now.

Judith: I’ve experienced all three. Off and one, kind of sometimes, you know, I feel
abundant, and I see the abundance, and I’m thankful, and then other times I see
it just slipping away. Yeah, I’ve experienced, you know, all those different things.

Derek: Yeah. So your work now is, I’m going to just for time’s sake I’m going to put you
back on mute, but that’s a great question. I’m going to give you a little bit more
breakdown on what to work with on that, and thank you so much, Judith, for that
question.

Judith: Okay. Thanks.

Derek: The common thing that so many people are experiencing, and you don’t realize
it, it’s like little bit by little bit you’re focusing on what you don’t have, what you
might lose, and you’re grip gets tighter and tighter, and you’re afraid. And you
start creating coping mechanisms to deal with the fear and the fear of loss, and
the fear of not having enough, and what about the future? And you’re putting all

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 27


your reliance on what you can see. And it’s like in that parable of, to he who has
more shall be given. In that actual parable the master had given the three
servants, each of them got a certain amount of talents, which was the name for, I
guess, the money.

So one got 10, one got five, one got 15, or whatever. And they had, or no they
all got the same amount, five or whatever it was. And they had to go out and use
those while the master was away. And one of them takes it, circulates it, invests
it, multiplies it. The other one takes it, shares it, circulates it, uses it, triples it.
And the third one is afraid that maybe the master isn’t managing his money good
enough, or what if something happens there’s not enough, so the third one buries
his talents in the dirt, to keep them safe so that nothing happens to them. Seems
like a logical thing to do; it’s a safe thing to do. So, you know, the other guys
could have lost theirs.

So the master comes back, and the first one says, master, I took this to market; I
shared it; I circulated, I invested it. I bought some stuff and built stuff with it and
remitted double return on it. Master’s like great. The master lets the individual
keep the profits, and the master keeps the capital. The next one says, here’s
what I did master, and I tripled it. He’s like, great. Lets him keep his profits, and
he takes the capital. Third one says, master, you know, because of the situation
of our times, and blah, blah, blah. I buried mine to make sure nothing would
happen to it. And the master curses the guy, and kicks him out of the house, and
takes what he had away from him.

And the moral of that was that he didn’t trust in the master. He didn’t trust that
there would be more than enough. He didn’t trust; he lived from fear, from
scarcity, from lack, and so he lost even what he had, and that’s how the principle
of life works. So that speaks to what you’re speaking of Judith, is that you want
to begin to shift your focus now. You want to have a vision that’s expansive and
abundant, and by the time we’re done you will, and meanwhile you want to just
notice and identify all the places where you are making something outside of you
your source, and where you are focusing on and entertaining the fear, and the
lack, and the limitation. And just know that when you’re doing that you are
planting seeds of future lack. So love yourself, embrace that part of yourself, and
bring your attention back to the truth, back to the vision.

And, again, around visualization and all that, that’s a practice. You can grow that
muscle, but even if you’re not able to see pictures it still works if you do it with
sincere intention, and you got into you would start to worry about how. How am I
going to do this, and how is this going to work, and how is this going to happen?
Don’t step into the hows too soon. The how will kill the what. You want to get
anchored in the what, anchored in the vision, which we’re going to work on as we
go through these courses, and get strong in that vibration of the what. Then we
move into little bit by little bit the how, because the ego will throw the how in there
as a way to throw you off track and to get back into fear, back into limitation, cast
back into your limited capacity. And with your limited capacity, you can’t figure
out all the hows. The acorn can’t figure out how to be an oak tree. The how is
what unfolds as you surrender to the what.

Okay, so now we’re going to jump back into the seven gifts now. We’re going to go through the
seven gifts, again we’re not going to spend a lot of time on these today, because we’re going to
go into them much more in-depth in each course. And then we’re going to get into talking about
the Money Mastery Matrix and coming up with specific money goals, and how you can put this all
together with the list process based on the notes you took earlier in the call. So we have a couple
big chunks still to go, and my intention is to always finish these trainings in three hours or less. I

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 28


did say they would be up to three hours, because I want to really give you a lot of material, and
you can always go back and listen through and practice and apply. But I want you to have it all.
So, and you can take a break while we’re doing this if you need to.

So the seven gifts are seven structures that allow you to activate this inner abundance, this inner,
to turn on this inner wealth machine. And we’re going to become masterful at activating and
giving them as we go through this training. The first one is giving out, or giving forth. The second
one is giving away. Then giving up, giving in, forgiving, giving to yourself or receiving, giving
thanks, these are the seven gifts. I know you’ve heard me talk about these before, especially if
you’re on the free training. But like I say, we’re going to go into these much more in-depth, and
I’m going to let you ask questions about them as well, so you can really understand them.

But the first one is giving out or giving forth, and that represents time, talent, and treasure, so
basically giving of your substance, whether it’s the substance of your time in terms of service,
volunteer work, etc. Just helping out, so giving of your time. The next one is giving of your talent,
so sharing your gifts, talents, and abilities. Finding more and more ways to give of those, and this
is an interesting one, because in a lot of ways we’re holding our gifts back waiting for conditions
to be right. And not understanding that the next stage will not show up until we start giving of our
gifts.

It’s like if you’re a singer, you sing; you don’t wait for somebody to invite you to sing, or validate
you to sing. If you have to put on a concert for your cat, you do that. And then you go find a
coffee shop where you can sing at. You put on a little concert for your friends, of family, or
neighbors. If you’re a writer, you write; you don’t wait for the world to come knock on your door.
You don’t wait for the world to validate you. Now that doesn’t mean you don’t also study and train
to become better at whatever your gift is; that’s part of giving forth of your gift, but you don’t wait
for circumstances to change. You know, when a flower blooms and blossoms on the side of a
hill, it doesn’t wait for somebody to show up to see it. It just blossoms. It gives forth of its
perfume, its beauty, its gift, and if nobody ever shows up it doesn’t blossom less, it blossoms fully.
It gives all of itself fully, because that’s its nature.

So you want to look at with this gift, with this giving forth, giving out, where are you holding back
your talents, gifts, and abilities because you don’t think you’re ready, you don’t think you’re good
enough, you don’t have enough letters behind your name, you know, whatever. The
circumstances aren’t right. And again, I’m not, the caveat is, I’m not telling you if you want to be a
brain surgeon to go start operating on people that, you know, that are willing. You know? If it
requires a certification or license, definitely get that. But, you know, if it’s a coach, you just are
open and willing to coach people when the opportunity arises, when a coachable moment arises.
You’re just there to serve people, to love people, to support people. Maybe you become a big
brother or big sister, maybe you just start giving of your coaching away for free session, which
we’ll talk about later on in this course, about it’s just a technique to begin giving of your gift that
starts to circulate it.

So you want, with this gift you want to find ways to give of your time, your service, to give of your
talents, and to give of your treasure, and that basically means your money. So you find a way to
tithe, to circulate your money in a way that’s unconditional. And that could be to your church,
your place of, wherever you get spiritual nourishment is usually the place where you tithe, if you
want to get really distinctive charity and tithing are not the same thing. Because tithing is really a
way to say, this doesn’t belong to me; this belongs to the divine. This percentage, which is
typically 10; tithe means 10, 10% of your income, and if you can start there, great. If you can’t I’m
not one of the absolutists who says you have to. I say start wherever it’s a little bit uncomfortable,
and grow from there, but give something.

Start circulating, and what it does is as you start to give, you start to notice where you think that’s
yours, and if I give a little bit I’m going to have less. This is going to become easier as you realize
that money is not your supply or your wealth, which we’re going to work on in the next session.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 29


But you start to find ways to give unconditionally, seeking nothing in return, but giving because
giving is your nature, and because you already have an infinite storehouse of riches within you.
So you just find ways to give of your time, your talents, and your treasure.

And as Martin Luther King, Jr. said, everybody can be great, because anybody can serve. So
these are ways that you can start to generate and activate the inner supply within you, by giving
forth of your time, your talent, and your treasure, without conditions. And that will start to dissolve
the ego; it will start to give you a sense of abundance. You start to give of these things; you start
to feel like, wow, I have something to give. Look at it. I’m giving of my talents, I’m giving of my
time. I have something to give, which equals I have. I have. I have. I have. And you start to
create a consciousness of I have. And the more you do this, and the more you get stronger and
grow in this, the more and more you start to love and have so much fun looking for ways to give.

And tithing is a very powerful way, because, again, it’s a very spiritual technology that is meant to
dissolve your ego. That is meant to show that ultimately none of this belongs to you. You are a
channel, remember, of this infinite supply that’s pouring forth through you like Niagara Falls. And
the more and more you realize it doesn’t belong to you, but you’re just a channel of it, and the
more and more you’re willing to let it flow from that consciousness, the more and more and more
it will pour forth until it’s so much you can’t even contain it. And that’s where it says in Malachi
3:10, bring all the tithes into the storehouse that there may be meat in my house, and prove me
now herewith, sayeth the lord of hosts. If I will not open up the windows of heaven for you, and
pour you out a blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it.

As you start to master this gift, the windows of heaven, which is the consciousness of abundance
within you, which is unlimited, will begin to open up and pour more and more out through you, to
you, around you in ways you can’t even count or calculate. And you just literally will start to walk
through your day going, wow, oh my god. It’s like drive by blessings. Right? It’s like, bam,
blessed and multiplied. B-A-M, blessed and multiplied. You’ll just turn around a corner, and bam,
blessed and multiplied. You open up the door; it’s bam, I’m blessed again. You walk into your
place of employment, bam, something blesses you. Everywhere you go, and all you can do is
breath and receive.

The second gift, giving away, this is where you give away things you don’t need or use anymore;
this is where you learn to let go, to keep the energy, in the form of stuff, moving, which is another
form of sharing, and you keep the things that are useful. But you keep, the things you don’t really
need or use anymore, you keep them moving so that those to whom they can be useful, you
know; one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. And the reason for this also is that many of the
things we hold onto really represent stuck energy, stuck emotion, stuck story. We’re stuck in a
story which creates an emotional and energetic prison, and we don’t realize it. We’re stuck; we’re
stagnant.

And you can tell by when you start to think about letting go of some of that stuff, those clothes in
your closet you haven’t wore for years, and you think you still aren’t going to wear them; they still
got tags on them. Those books on your shelves and stacks of magazines you think you’re going
to read, but you’re never going to read them; it’s just a fire hazard. Right? All that stuff in the
drawer that you really never even look at, but you think somehow you might someday need it. No
you won’t; it’s stuck energy, and the more you start letting it go, it’s going to bring up in you the
unconscious beliefs that are stagnating you, that are sabotaging you, and it can become quite
cathartic and quite transformative. And then it makes space for what you do need to flow into
your life. You get it moving again; you get it flowing again. So that’s the second gift, giving up.

Giving in, this is where you release resistance, surrender. That’s the serenity prayer, yielding to
that emerging impulse. It’s not surrender in the sense of giving up like, oh, I’m screwed, forget it.
It’s surrendering and yielding to what’s emerging. When the acorn shell begins to crack, and the
acorn feels like its life’s falling apart, and if the acorn had self consciousness it might call in an
acorn shell repairman to fix its shell, but it really needs to do is surrender the shell. Surrender

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 30


that protective coat, surrender that protective mechanism, and yield to the oak tree trying to
emerge, that’s what giving in really means. That’s what the serenity prayer really means; that’s
what thy will be done really means. You’re not acquiescing to limitation; you’re letting go of
control, ego agendas, which the ego’s job is to keep you the same while giving you the illusion of
changing or convincing you that you can’t.

You’re letting go when you hit these thresholds and yielding what’s trying to emerge to me,
through me, and as me. There’s always something larger trying to emerge. Your whole spiritual
destiny is already manifest, but it’s infinite, and therefore it’s always knocking at the door, always
pushing forth, always calling you to surrender and yield, more and more and more, this allowing,
giving in, giving in, giving in, very powerful gift. Again, we’re going to go into these much more,
but I’m giving you a little bit of, notice which ones of these resonate with you, because you’re
going to have a little exercise on this. And you’re probably going they all resonate, oh my god, I
need to do them all. And, of course, you do ultimately, and you will, of course, through this
program.

Forgiving is the next gift, the fifth gift, and it’s a very powerful gift. We could spend a whole
course on this alone, but understand that, most people don’t understand that most of the debt in
your life is not just because you’re bad at managing money; it’s often because you have a story of
unforgiveness. Whenever you think you owe someone something, an apology, or somebody
owes you something, wherever you’re holding somebody in a state of owing, unforgiveness, you
are creating debt. What do you have when you have a bunch of I owe you, I owe you, I owe you,
you owe me, you owe me, I owe you? You have debt. You have psychological, energetic,
emotional, and ultimately that coagulates often into financial debt, and so one of the biggest
things you want to do to begin eliminating debt, which we’re going to focus on later, is a real
strong practice of forgiveness. And this includes praying for your enemies, loving your enemies,
praying for those that use you, all of that stuff, which we’re going to go into more deeply. And
forgiving yourself, and how many times do you forgive others and yourself? Until you don’t need
to anymore; until you have no sense of owing, until there’s no sense of debt.

The next gift is giving to yourself, receiving; we talked about this, but it bears repeating, because
so often, not just when you’re heart centered or spiritual are you always trying to be a do-gooder
and a caretaker and a giver in the world. But as we already looked at, in all the places where
you’re trying to get something from someone else, where you need to start is giving it to yourself.
If you’re trying to get validation, approval, love, acceptance, you must recognize that you can
never get it out there. You must first give it to yourself. You must first give it to yourself, and if
you’re not giving it to yourself, even if others are giving it to you, you’re going to have a very hard
time to receive it.

You know what that looks like. Somebody compliments you, oh my god, you’re hair looks great
today. Oh, really, this old rat’s nest. You can’t receive it. Oh, that dress is beautiful. Oh, this old
thing? I just threw it on. God, you’re so talented. Oh, really? Gosh, you know, I don’t know.
You cannot let the love in, because you have the love inside of you activate. It’s not congruent.
You haven’t created an inner environment that can receive and house that love. So you must
give whatever, or whatever it is, validation, approval, appreciation. You want to be appreciated?
Appreciate yourself. You want to be validated? Validate yourself. Because ultimately we train
people how to treat us based on how we treat ourselves. So, again, we’re going to get more into
that, but that’s a big one; it’s really one that we all need to practice, but for some of us it’s even
more, more so.

And finally we have giving thanks and giving thanks, again, we’re going to spend a whole big
thing on this, but there’s an arc to gratitude. Gratitude is the evidence that you’ve already got it.
And it starts off where you have no reason to be grateful, then you find something to be grateful
for something, then you’re grateful for everything, and then you’re grateful for no reason. So it’s
no reason to be grateful, grateful for something, grateful for everything, grateful for no reason,
meaning you’re just grateful. That’s the arc of gratitude, and we’re going to build on that as we go

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 31


through this, but it’s a foundation gift. Because when you live in a state of gratitude, the universe
just keeps giving you more and more reasons to be thankful for, because you’re a match.
Gratitude is the evidence that you’ve received the gift. It’s the master gift. I know you’ve heard
about it a lot, but do you really walk around in a state of gratitude. Do you give thanks for
everything in your life? So this is what we’re going to practice, becoming masters at gratitude.

And here’s another key, you’re not being grateful to get anything. We got to be careful; we got to
keep reminding ourselves. We’re not doing any of this to get anything. Any time the getting slips
in there, which it will, okay. So you’re like, I’m thankful; I’m thankful; I’m thankful. In the back of
your mind it’s like, so I’ll get something. Or I’m tithing and giving and tithing so that I’ll get
something. You are short circuiting the process, because the minute you do it, you give a gift to
get, you’ve already said, I don’t have, and you’re not really giving, because giving must be
unconditional. And you’re saying I don’t have, and so you’re going to have to keep experiencing
not having, so you must always stop.

Remember, at the beginning of this call I said you put the stick-ups everywhere. I already have
everything. I already am everything. I’m already more than enough. My life’s more than enough.
Boom. Done. Now let me do the practice. So now I’m not tithing or giving or praying or affirming
to get anything; I’m doing all of this to activate, generate, radiate, circulate, and release this
imprisoned splendor that’s always within me, that’s already within me, that I already am. Are you
getting this folks? I mean, this is huge; this is huge. If you just get this and master this, your life
will never ever be the same, and of course, our intention is that you are getting this, and by the
end of this course you are going to have a level of mastery.

So now we’re going to jump in here to the Money Mastery Matrix, and really creating your money
mastery map. And we’re not going to do all this today, this is going to be an assignment. So I
want you to take notes, and be prepared to do this work in between calls. So basically this is, the
money mastery matrix is made up of the four quadrants of money mastery. And just notice as I
start talking about money now, where does that hit you? Is it like, ew, yuck, er, ick? Or is it like,
yes, finally. Either one of those is indication of where you live. If you’ve been listening to me talk
about all the inner activation and spirit and like, when’s he going to get to the money stuff? Then
that shows you where there’s some imbalance, and if when I start talking about money, money,
money, money, and you’re like ugh, you know, I feel so unspiritual. That’s also going to be, or it
just makes you want to go numb when you think about having to deal with numbers. Again, really
powerful awareness to have that we’re going to heal as we go through this.

So, the first one is your monthly money goal. Now some of you might have done this kind of work,
but most of you probably haven’t. This is what you need to cover your bills and to begin to
reduce your debt, so that’s your basic debt reduction payment and whatever your total bills are.
So you want to get very clear on what is that number. Okay? That’s your first piece of this
assignment. What is that number? Is it $500, $1,000, $5,000? What is that number, just to meet
your basics, to cover all your costs, and your basic minimum debt reduction?

The second number you’re going to come up with is your money miracle goal, and this is what is
your current lifestyle, bills, debt, and how much would you need to earn to cover all of that plus
three to six month buffer in the next 40 days? In other words, by the end of 40 days, how much
money would you have to earn to be able to have a three to six month buffer and also have
covered all of your bills through that period? Okay? So that’s the next stage we’re shooting for,
right? And if you want to make that a little bit bigger you can stretch that and go, to have all of
bills covered for the next 90 days, and to have 90 to 120 days worth of buffer, emergency fund.
Okay? So there’s a number there. You want to come up with that, and that will become a goal
that we’re actually going to establish that you’re going to intend to achieve, to earn, to manifest by
the end of the 40 days. Okay?

And you want that, you know, don’t stretch it to the point where it feels crazy, so in other words,
don’t go 90 days out if you’re absolutely struggling just to make your monthly rent. Just have

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 32


what would it be to pay all my bills during this time and have three to six months buffer, and to
earn that? Because you want to get that buffer in place, that buffer allows you to have, to create
the feeling of some space. Again, we’re not going to lean on the buffer; the buffer’s not our
source. That’s the danger I’m, that’s the mistake I made years ago, and when finally god said,
you will have no gods before me. So we’re not making the buffer our god, this is just a manner of
creating congruent structures in our life, to be a good steward, and to have that particular piece in
place.

The next one is your money freedom goal. Now this is take your current life costs and, again, this
is going to take a little bit of thinking. So, for some of you this is going to make you want to daze
over. It did me in the beginning. And how much total cash investment would you need to have,
to have a return on that investment to cover your current expenses? So, in other words, let’s say
your current expenses is $1,000 a month, or $12,000 a year, or let’s say $1,000 a month, and you
have developed an investment that pays, or have a cash amount in savings, $100,000, and it
gives you a 10% return. So you get $1,000 every month return on that investment, just as an
example. The minute you’ve got enough of an investment, whether it’s intellectual property,
money in the bank, whatever, so that it’s throwing off enough cash to pay all of your current
liabilities, you are, on paper, effectively retired. Okay? You’re no longer working for money.

Now again, this is another one of those basic financial structures, and I told you I was going to do
some practical stuff here. And just notice what it brings up in you. Notice the resistance, notice
the cringe worthy responses, notice whatever it brings up in you. Maybe it gets you excited; like,
finally, I’m going to learn this stuff. Now this is not a course in the mastery of your finances, but
we are going to work with this because the consciousness around it and what it brings up, and
when you actually start to implement it what it brings up, is where some of the healing has to take
place. I remember when I first started to embrace this; it was like, even now, you know, my
Director of Operations will tell you, you know, when I look at spreadsheets I have to like lean up
against something so I don’t fall into a numerical coma, you know, a spreadsheet coma. But I still
do the work, you know. I still find a way to do it.

So your money freedom goal is, let’s say you have $1,000 a month costs, so that’s $12,000 a
year, and so at an average rate of 3 to 5% return, you would need to have, you know. What
would that be? If you had $1,000,000 and you got 10%, that’s $100,000. $10,000, $3,000. So,
you have to have several hundred thousand dollars in the bank, in a savings or a money market
or something, earning 3 to 5%, and that would give you enough to live off without having to work
again. So just adjust it based on whatever your amount is.

Now, the reason why we do this is a couple reasons. One is to literally have that as part of your
big vision, to have that financial security, to invest and to build that. The second reason is you
might discover it’s not as much as you thought. Like, to get free of that burden of thinking you
have to work for a living, you know. If it’s $5,000 a month, $60,000 a year, you know, a
$1,500,000 or $1,000,000 with 6% interest, which can be gotten, and you’re financially free. You
could live off that for the rest of your life, and it would never affect your principal. You’d always
have the $1,000,000 there, and you would still have enough money coming to you to pay all your
bills. Now we’re going to build a consciousness. This is what I want, we’re going to do with this,
so that you feel the consciousness of having that level of abundance. So that your actions are
conducive to that, and then that leads to generating that level of abundance, but for right now I
want you to actually come up with these numbers.

Then we get to the money mastery goal, and this is I want you take time to come up with what is
your ideal lifestyle? What is the vision for your life? What do you really want to create? What do
you really want to contribute? What do you really want to have? What do you really want to do?
And you can just open up to that right now. We’re going to play with this more in the next class if
we need to, and you can of course do this on your own. But I want you to come up with, here’s
my ideal life, this kind of home, this kind of environment, this kind of work schedule, making this
kind of contribution in the world, philanthropically, building a business, whatever it is. And then I

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 33


want you to estimate. Okay, if I had that lifestyle, what would that lifestyle cost? You might need
to do a little research, just kind of in the ballpark, and if that was the case, then how much would
you need to earn, you know, per year to pay for it? And then that monetary amount, let’s say you
go, okay, this vision is a five year vision, or a three year vision, that then would be your monetary
three year or five year goal. Then we’re going to reverse that, engineer that back, into your one
year goal. You understand? And then break that down into, and what would my monthly
monetary goal be? My monthly money goal?

So, if that ultimate lifestyle would cost you, you know, $500,000 a year, and that’s like a five year
vision. So that would cost you, you know, whatever it is, 40 some thousand dollars a month. And
then you reverse engineer that back to, where would that be approximately three years, one
year? So maybe it’s $100,000 in the next year, and that means to be earning $8,000 something,
whatever that is $8,500, whatever it is per month. By the end of a year to be up to earning 80
some hundred dollars a month, making $100,000 a year, which puts me on track for my big vision
of in five years making $500,000, etc., etc. You see how this all expands and contracts?

Again, just notice what this brings up in you, notice how it feels. If it makes you want to go to
sleep, feel tired, want to grab a piece of chocolate, want to, you know, take a nap, get off the call,
all of that is good information, because that’s showing you not what’s true about what I’m saying,
but what are your beliefs? What are your thoughts and feelings around this, and where you’ve
got a lot of resistance? Okay? And I invite you to journal about that in between classes, to take
note of this. It’s all about expanded awareness.

So this is going to be your homework, to look at your finances, to look at these questions. You’re
going to come up with: your money, monthly money goal, which is how much you need to cover
your bills and debt reduction; your money miracle goal, which is your current lifestyle, bills, plus
three to six month buffer, and the goal to achieve that in the next 40 days; your money freedom
goal, which is how much you would have to have in some investment account or savings account
to earn enough to cover all of your current bills so that you would be effectively retired; your
money mastery goal, which is your ideal lifestyle and how much that would cost. And again, write
this down so you can do this. Also, listen to this recording again.

And, by the way, we don’t have it yet, but I’m going to get all of this stuff transcribed, so you’re
going to have transcripts of all of this eventually. We’re working on that as a bonus. Okay, so
that’s going to be your homework. Okay? And, again, note whatever thoughts or feelings come
up. We’re going to go over these numbers and what came up in the next class. The self talk, the
emotions, and work on healing that. Now, early on in this call you worked on the daily list part,
you basically worked on the feeling and the being of your vision and that area where you are
feeling stuck. Okay? And this is part of stage two of emergineering also, which is creating the
congruent conditions.

So now what I want you to do is look at those areas where the feeling and the being qualities that
you wrote down, and if you didn’t write them down you can go back, do the exercise again and
write them down. Not right now, of course. And you’re going to ask yourself this question. Now,
you can also do it another way. You can also do it, in fact I think this might be even more
empowering for some of you. Once you identify your money mastery vision, like the big vision,
really visualize having that, being that, filling into that, and then discover what are the feelings,
what are the qualities of feeling and the qualities of being? Use those as your soul pillars, okay?
The qualities of feeling and being if you were living your money master vision. That’s the big
vision, full out, living full out, giving full out, contributing full out, and then I want you to look at the
qualities of the feeling, pick—we’re going to work on this on an ongoing basis, but to start, pick
one quality that has the highest charge for you, that you want to feel mostly, you want to feel the
most of.

And then you want to ask, what activities could I do, or have I done that I could do more of, that
allow me to feel that quality? Or what people, or what places, or what objects could I put in my

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 34


environment? So, for example, whenever I jog or exercise I feel more powerful, if power was a
quality, or if joy is a quality, whenever I sing or dance or play music, I feel joy. Or whenever I’m
spending time with so and so I feel joy, or whenever I walk in nature I feel peace, or whenever I
look at this picture, or listen to that piece of music, I feel peace or joy or whatever. So you want
to identify people, places, objects and activities that activate the feeling tone of those qualities
that you’re feeling whenever you imagine the great vision. And then you want to engineer those
into your life, so that you’re actually doing those on a daily and/or weekly basis. Okay?

Then you look at the being qualities, and you go, you notice, what are the qualities that you would
be in this ideal vision? So, you’re more outgoing, more playful, more confident, whatever. And
you ask, who would I be? And then you say, what would it look like to step into being that in my
life now. So you pick one of those qualities, and you ask, what would it look like to step into being
that? And each day you ask that, and then you begin to engineer that into your daily and weekly
activities. As you do this, you’re activating those qualities, you’re becoming more congruent, and
it will start to flush out of you the things that are not congruent with that, which will do the deeper
healing work. And the healing work that I’m doing is going to activate that.

Now, we’re going to start the 40 day giving challenge today also, and what that basically is is
going back over the seven gifts that we talked about and doing the, looking at the ones that spoke
to you most, and making a commitment to give of those on a daily basis, every day. And you can
add to those and build on those over the next 40 days, and go into the private Facebook group,
and if you’re listening, if you’re part of this live program, and post what your commitment is to
giving forth, or to giving, what gifts you’re activating as part of your 40 day giving challenge.
Okay?

And then every day you’re going to be giving those, and talk about what’s coming up for you, and
share your experiences, your breakthroughs, you insights, and as we go through this program
we’ll work on increasing the giving quotient by several percent each week. Okay? So that’s
you’re 40 day giving challenge. And you’re going to do it every day, you’re going to find a way to
give of these gifts that you’ve picked on a little bit every day, and then build on that. So your
homework’s going to be working on the money goals, those numbers. It’s going to be starting the
40 day giving challenge, and then I want you to take, as we take these pieces, the giving
challenge, the money goals, and the work on those, the feeling and the being actions, you know,
in order to become congruent with that. I want you to, which is part of your daily lift practice, I
want you to sit down and take those pieces and actually put them together into a plan, so that you
have what I call an Awakened Wealth plan. That you are going to actually put on your calendar,
okay?

So this isn’t just listen to a bunch of stuff, get inspired, and then go back to your way of life. I
want you to make this a priority over the next 40 days, so that you put it on your calendar. So
you’re doing these things each day, each week, and you’re making the time for them. Okay?
And as you look at that money goal, I want you to also make sure you identify that. That’s going
to become part of your money master map. Okay? That’s going to be included in your overall
Awakened Wealth plan as we work on it, and we’re going to go into that more next week. Okay?
So, again, I know I’m putting a lot of things down for you here. That’s why you can listen to this
again and again, ask questions in the private group, and we’re going to keep going into this each
week, going deeper and deeper and deeper.

So your Awakened Wealth action steps this week are come up with your different money goals,
or your numbers, start to develop your daily lift practice to become more congruent with the
money master vision, identify those areas where you’re going to start to give, those gifts, as part
of your 40 day giving challenge, and put it all together and begin to calendar it as part of your
Awakened Wealth plan. Okay? And then of course journal what’s coming up, so that you are
staying awake, staying conscious. Okay? So I’m going to open it up now just for a few more
questions before we close today with a quantum prayer. So just raise your hand if you have any

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 35


questions about anything we’ve covered. And I don’t know if these were already up here, but I’m
just going to start with whatever’s here. So, here we go.

Derek: Do you have a question?

Kay: Hi, Derek. This is Kay, and it really, of course, went right through me when you
started calling the radio stations KLUV and KLACK. I mean I know those are all
signals west of the Mississippi, but I live east of the Mississippi, so when I heard
them they made me chuckle, and I’m like, okay. I’m definitely signing up for this
course. I listened to you last week and started doing what you taught us, and
had some manifestations pretty quickly. I’d had a problem with a car for six
months, and became able to sell it last week, and was only offered $25,000. I
listened to you, did the work, and then yesterday was first place I went, I listened
to the inner guidance. First place I went I was offered $34,000. That’s almost a
50% increase. I did it, and actually the check was written on my same bank,
which put the funds in my account immediately.

Within about an hour, I started becoming afraid; I started becoming worried that
they were going to ask for the money back. All of these ego, negative things
started coming up and made me so sad, and I didn’t know what to do with it. I
finally was able to get to sleep knowing we were having the class today, and I
hope in this class you will help us and go over with all of the things that will come
up. Mine came up so quickly. This is something I’d worked on for six months,
and with your help last week it manifested yesterday, but last night I was so sad,
so afraid. All of my life, any accomplishment, it always, you know, nitpick, what
was wrong, what I did wrong; it’s not true; it’s not going to last; it’s not real. So I
hope you will cover as we do start achieving things, which I did, all of the stuff
that flooded me, and . . .

Derek: Well, let me just speak to that, Kay. It’s a very, very good question, and very
good point. And it’s something I talk about all the time, which is called your
thresholds, and the minute the next level pops up, especially when you have a
rapid breakthough like that, is you hit a threshold. And it shows you the places
and the parts of you, remember, I even talked about it early on in this call today,
this training, that it will bring up everything unlike that new frequency. That love
casts out all fear. The light casts out all darkness. This is like a spiritual roto
rooter that’s going to bring up everything that’s been clogging the circuits and the
plumbing.

So the important thing is when that comes up, it’s like, wow. You get to notice all
the stuff that’s been going on in the dark, and the key is to be mindful, to
observe, to be aware of it, to love yourself, to be patient and kind, not fight it, not
to resist it, not to judge yourself, and even when the judgment comes up, take a
breath and observe the judgment. And just keep noticing it, and know that this is
a threshold. This is all the unconscious limited beliefs and things that are not
congruent that are coming up, that don’t believe they’re worthy, that believe that
money is material. All this stuff’s coming up, so you just want, the first thing is to
be very mindful of it.

Then, to notice what are the fears? I’m going to go broke; I’m not going to have
enough. I’m going to lose it all; I’m such a loser, whatever it is, that’s where we
work on the shadow. So we embrace those parts of us that are crying out; we
don’t try to change them; we embrace them. We ask them, what are they trying
to tell us and teach us? What, if any, is an early experience in our life where we
created them, so we can understand their genesis? What do they need from us
to feel loved and supported and safe? And as we ask those questions of these

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 36


parts of us that are freaking out and crying out, it will begin to speak to us. It will
give us guidance, and it will start to calm down. Or it might cry a little louder. It
might want to just pound its fist and get angry and get sad, and that’s okay too.

So we let it have its voice, we let it have it’s, you know, to communicate with us,
because it’s been probably repressed for a long time. As you’re willing to do that,
you will integrate these parts of you, and you’ll get stronger. Then you move to
the next level, which is bringing your attention back to the truth, which is what’s
the truth here? Who am I really? What are the spiritual principles of Awakened
Wealth? What is the spiritual truth of my being, and the truth of my abundance?
And then you remind yourself there, and then you affirm the truth and pray about
the truth and pray from the truth, and if you’re still feeling scared and angry, you
use what are called emotional backed affirmations.

So, you’re feeling all the fear and the anger, and you know the letter of truth, and
so you use the energy you’re feeling to affirm the truth. So it might go something
like this, I am abundant. I have everything I could need within me. Nothing can
stop me. Inexhaustible wealth and abundance is pouring through me,
unstoppable, unbreakable, unshakable, unseekable. I am one with all of
creation, and I don’t care what the appearances are, no matter what has
happened before. No matter what my mind is saying, I am the life of the divine; I
am the light of the world, and everything is working together for my good to
produce more and more wealth and abundance like never before.

So you just use the energy, as best you can. I mean, it’s not going to sound like
the way I said it perhaps, because I, you know, I’ve been practicing it for awhile.
But you use it as best you can, and then you’re not fighting the energy, you’re
using it to break through those crystallized thought forms, and it will begin to
dissipate. And you will anchor yourself at a higher level. So that’s just a little brief
nutshell way to work with those thresholds, and we’re going to of course keep
doing the deeper work, keep doing the healing work as we go. Does that make
sense?

Kay: Oh, it does. Right on target. Thank you so much, and I will be listening to that
again.

Derek: Great. Thank you, Kay. Much love, my dear.

Kay: You too.

Derek: And who do we have here? Whoops, see if that works. There we go.

Virginia: Hi.

Derek: Who do we have here? Hi there. Who’s this?

Virginia: Virginia.

Derek: Hi, Virginia. What’s your question today?

Virginia: I was wondering about the money mastery matrix. And I have been blessed in
my life so far in that I don’t have any debt, but, so I think my block that I’d like
some guidance on is, okay, so I’ve already been able to have this, and I think I
need to be able to use it toward something, something. So if I, do I work more
just on then using what I have, or should I stick back with making more so I have
more to do when I figure it out?

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 37


Derek: Yeah, the same thing is true. So, if you have, if you’ve already achieved, you
know, the buffer. You have more than enough, ideally than if you have already
three to six months, I’d move up to 12 months or more, savings buffer and all
that. If you’ve already got that in place, then you move into the money master
vision, which is what is the absolute ideal life that you would be living, being,
doing, contributing, creating? What’s that ideal life? If you’ve already achieved,
you’ve got enough coming in to pay your bills, you’ve got to have a buffer. Do
you have enough so that you don’t ever have to work again? Or the next step up
is do you have enough to live absolutely the life, and that includes not just having
the house, and the car, and the boat, and whatever. That includes philanthropy,
building or creating, innovating, contributing, that grand vision, that would be the
number you might focus on, which we’re all focusing on, but that would be, you
wouldn’t need to focus on the other, you know, first couple, if that makes sense.

Virginia: Yeah, no that’s really helpful. That’s certainly, that’s definitely an area I have to
explore more, because in the past I have lived too much through other people
and waited for their vision to be my vision. And through the work of previous to
this call I’ve realized that I need to work my vision. So that’s, it kind of fits right
into what you said, which is getting my own vision for that money mastery.

Derek: Yeah, yeah. And also, is your money coming to you from you, or is it coming
through other people?

Virginia: I would say right now it’s both, but it certainly started through other people.

Derek: Okay, so yes my sense is that there’s a little bit of a strengthening in the knowing
that you are source.

Virginia: Yeah. Yeah, I would agree with that.

Derek: That that’s what’s coming through me right now. To really know that you are
absolute source of everything in your life, no matter when it’s come, where it’s
come, you’ve always been the source of it, otherwise it couldn’t show up in your
life. And to really anchor yourself and get strong in that, and then have this big
grand vision that really equates to you living—understand Awakened Wealth isn’t
just about how much money you have. It’s about the realization that I have
everything that I need to manifest everything that I’m here to be, do, contribute,
and have. It’s total wealth, and that you are this wealth machine that can create
and use this supply to create everything you need, the relationships, the money,
the opportunities, the contribution. You know, that’s why the money mastery goal
and vision encompasses all that.

Virginia: Yeah, I think that’s exactly the place I need to work on. Thank you so much,
Derek.

Derek: You’re so welcome, my dear. And who do I have here? Area code, oh, okay.
Who do I have here?

Eileen: Hi, Derek. It’s Eileen.

Derek: Hi, Eileen. How can I . . .

Eileen: How are you?

Derek: I’m great.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 38


Eileen: Good, well, you know, my question has been really answered along the way, with
Kendall, starting with her, because I’ve been a stayed at home mom, you know,
for 17 years, and just the other day, as I told you on the last call, Monday I
started, yesterday, I started my six week program that I have created for women.
It’s fitness, and it’s, I guess I’m calling it holistic fitness, sort of mind, body, and
spirit. And so far, so great, you know the women that did show up for the free
week that I’m offering really loved it.

My thing is that, I guess the whole source, you know, I am source. I’m grasping
that, because all of the abundance in our lives I felt like always came from my
husband, so, you know, listening to what you were saying, you know, I finally see
it through that lens, and that is like, you know, empowering, to feel like I
contributed to that as well. And what I’m doing right now is I’m feeling fearful,
you know, am I going to be a success at this? You know?

And attracting the right people, I feel like I have a lot of limiting beliefs, you know,
attracting the right client, and like, maybe judging am I ready? You know, a lot of
things are, sort of at threshold. So, but I’m hearing like all of these, the answers,
that you’re giving to everyone, Kay and Virginia just now, everything is resonating
with me, and I know I’m in the right place here for everything that I have, all the
limitations that I feel like I have.

Derek: Yeah, just one thing I’ll add to that, Eileen, is just to notice what is your worst fear
that will happen? Notice what you make that mean about you. So, I’m a failure;
I’m a screwup; I’m inadequate; I’m not good enough, and that’s what the fear’s
coming up to show you is what your unconscious is projecting. It’s projecting that
you’re not going to make it. It’s projecting that you’re not going to be good
enough; you’re not going to have enough; you’re not going to do enough; you’re
not enough.

So you, there’s two ways to work with that. One is to notice the shadow, which is
once you embrace and integrate the shadow, you’re not afraid of it anymore. So
if you embrace I’m not good enough, and I’m unworthy, and all that, and if you
embrace those shadows, and get the gifts from them, they quiet down. And you
actually get strengthened by them, and you’re not afraid of the failure, and all,
and looking stupid and all that stuff, because now you’ve embraced that part.

And then the second thing is understand that the person you are will not be the
same person that’s there when you’ve achieved the vision. So, the person that’s
going, I can’t do it, is right. The acorn can’t be an oak tree. It has to let go of that
acornness, so it’s also very natural when we feel the doubt and the fear and, how
am I going to ever do this? That is like the acorn shaking and going, how can I
ever become an oak tree? So when you understand that’s normal, because
there’s a larger you that’s trying to emerge, then you just put your attention back
on what’s the larger you. What’s trying to emerge? Who am I really in my truest
self?

And you start to get back in touch with that, and on the other side, you can look
out at people that you admire, respect, value, appreciate in your areas of
endeavor, and anyone that you admire, respect, value, and appreciate, that’s
also a shadow, but it’s your light shadow. It’s showing you the qualities of your
being that are trying to emerge. And so now you can embrace those, and affirm
those, and claim those. So you can work on both sides. So just if you do that
inner work while you’re in this program and working on everything else, and you
just take the next step, then you’re going to be just fine. That make sense?

Eileen: Yes, it does.

Derek: Great.

Eileen: It seems like a lot of work. You know, when you say it at first, it seems like I have
a lot of stuff, but . . .

Derek: Well, we all have a lot of steps, but you can only take one step at a time.

Eileen: Right. Right.

Derek: You just bring it back to, what’s now? And what’s next? What’s now? And
what’s next? And once we do the work to keep excavating and developing a
plan, and it’s beyond the scope of this program to develop a complete life plan,
but we’re going to definitely be developing it. That affords you, if you know, like
you’re driving from LA to New York, let’s say, and there’s a lot of directions,
maybe 1,000 directions, and lots of turns and twists and bridges, and all kinds of
stuff. If you think you have to hold all of that and do all of that now, you’re never
going to get out of the driveway.

But when you know, yeah there’s all these twists and turns getting to New York,
but all I have to do right now is follow what the GPS is telling me to do next. But
you have to have that plan in place, that map, so that once you have that in place
you kind of relax behind the wheel. And you know, okay, here’s what I do next.
Take a right turn. Okay. Wow. Look at that beautiful scenery. Take a left turn.
Okay. Cool. That’s new scenery. You’re not like going, oh my god, what am I
going to do tomorrow? What am I going to do in a week from now when I’m all
the way in Kentucky or whatever, I don’t really know.

It’s like, no, you don’t think about that, right? Because you know, but when we
don’t have a vision for our life, we don’t know where we’re going; when you don’t
know where you’re going, every road will take you there. Then you’re going to be
anxious for good reason, because now you’re turning down the street, and you’re
going, oh god. You know, I mean is this the right street? Should I really turn
down this street? What about the next street? What about the last street I was
down? You’re all over the place. So it is important to have a vision, and then
you can relax and just focus on what’s in front of you. So we’ll be unpacking
more of that as we go.

Eileen: Great.

Derek: Thank you, my dear.

Eileen: Thank you.

Derek: Okay. I’m going to take one more call, because we’re actually over the three
hours here, and I’m going to, I want to really honor everybody’s time too, and I
have to go as well. Who do I have here?

Karen: Hi, this is Karen.

Derek: Hi, Karen. How can I support you?

Karen: Actually, I think I’ve somewhat got the answer, but when you went into speaking
about the money matrix, I was really impressed, because I felt very solid. Until,

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 40


you got to the part where you said, okay, we’re going to make a 40 day plan, and
I could just feel myself contract, and say, oh, I’m not ready for that. So, I’m just
hoping in this work that somewhere is going to help me get to the action step.

Derek: Yeah.

Karen: Does that make sense?

Derek: Absolutely. And here’s going to be the key to that, you ready? You ready to take
the mysterious key? You have to take action.

Karen: Okay.

Derek: There’s your little shadow laugh, so there’s a little bit in your field, I can sense a
little bit of victim, and if you’ve heard me on the calls you know I’m not judging
you. I’m just talking about the qualities and shadows and things, and there’s a
little bit of being dependent. So, is there somebody else you depend on?

Karen: Yes. Yes.

Derek: Okay. And so you’re going to need to come into the realization that you’re the
source, not whoever or whatever you’ve been depending on, and really step into
your power. And so that’s going to be a big key for you, and that’s going to give
you a new level of being solid and empowered. Because there’s a big, I can feel
the bigger vision that wants to come through you, Karen. There’s a bigger life;
there’s a bigger life trying to come through you.

Karen: I can see that. I mean, that part, yes.

Derek: Yeah. It has something to do . . .

Karen: It’s just the action.

Derek: Yeah, it has something to do with you coming into more self-expression, more
creative expression, more contribution, and the action, you’re resistance to action
is part of some shadows about, ask yourself, what am I afraid will happen if?
And if I take this action, what am I afraid’s going to happen? And notice what
comes up, and that’s going to start to reveal your shadows. And then you can
come back on the next call, or in the group and share what comes up for you,
and we can work with you to work on those shadows. Okay? So just ask, what
am I afraid’s going to happen if I start to embark on creating a real plan that
requires me taking real actions, and being disciplined, and focused, and
consistent? What does that bring up in you? Right?

Karen: (coughing)

Derek: Yeah, there’s your shadow . . .

Karen: Discipline, yeah, when you said discipline.

Derek: Yeah, discipline is definitely one of your shadows, and, yeah, so this is going to
be really fun. This is going to be a fun adventure for you, Karen.

Karen: Okay.

Awakened Wealth – Class 1 - Page 41


Derek: I’m looking forward to it. So you just have to be willing and committed, and
knowing it’s a safe environment to confront all that comes up, to share all that’s
coming up, and set a commitment and intention that you’re willing to do and be
whatever it takes to be all that you were created to be.

Karen: Okay.

Derek: Just set that intention, and really, sincerely, set that every day, and notice what
comes up. Ask what am I afraid will happen if? And follow that by whatever the
goal is, setting the 40 day plan, creating a plan of discipline, etc. That’s going to
also start to bring stuff up for you, and definitely there’s something around the
dependence is a big one. Dependence, which, and discipline, and some kind of
belief that you of yourself aren’t quite capable, and we’re going to be able to
uproot all of that.

Karen: Okay.

Derek: You excited?

Karen: I’m just laughing, yeah. I’m excited. I’m just laughing, because, yes, you’re right.

Derek: I know. I didn’t even need you to tell me. I can feel it. So, it’s awesome; it’s so
awesome to have you here, and you’re in my heart, and in my prayers during this
process. So, just open up, receive the support, get into the private group, ask for
support, and engage in the process fully. All right, my dear?

Karen: All right. Thank you.

Derek: Thank you. Much love to you.

All right. Fellow emergeneers, fellow Awakened Wealthers, I got to come up with a better term
for that, but what a powerful first step. And that’s all this is, it’s the first step. And you know, the
journey of 1,000 miles begins with the first step. The journey of Awakened Wealth begins with
the first step, and I really invite you to engage fully, to make the time to do the time to do the work
with love, and kindness, and patience. And listen in again, and get involved in the group, and
remain open to the healing energy that’s being activated by me, and by this group, that’s literally
encoded in these audios, be open. Be available, and receive the gift. I love you. I appreciate
you, and I look forward to connecting with you again real soon. Take care, everyone.
