Scott Friedman discusses how to create an ideal life by acting on uplifting thoughts and emotions.

We create our ideal life by acting on the thoughts that have uplifting emotions tied to them. Those emotions could include peace, love, joy, exhileration, compassion, faith, trust or any other positive emotion. We have the capacity to create whatever is most uplifting for us and the world. In the process we will learn a great deal. It's likely that we'll have to call upon our faith to keep going in the face of obstacles and setbacks. If I could say only one thing to you, it's YOU HAVE THE ABILITY WITHIN YOU TO ACHIEVE WHATEVER IS MOST IMPORTANT TO YOU. Decide what that is and take any step you can discern that will move you in that direction. In this podcast, I'm using myself as an example. For me, I'm inspired to advance win/win thinking to be the dominant thinking in the world. You'll see how alive I become as I talk about that and what I'm doing in my effort to achieve that goal. The specific goal is not the point, the degree of aliveness is the point. I'd be committed to anything that animated me to that degree. Let this podcast inspire you to listen to yourself.
