Simple Steps to Healing:

I Love You, I'm Sorry, Please Forgive Me, Thank You
by Dr. Joe Vitale

Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients – without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane?

It didn't make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story.

However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho'oponopono. I had never heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at all true, I had to know more.

I had always understood "total responsibility" to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do. Beyond that, it's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibility that way. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone else does. The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people would teach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility.

His name is Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len. We probably spent an hour talking on our first phone call. I asked him to tell me the complete story of his work as a therapist. He explained that he worked at Hawaii State Hospital for four years. That ward where they kept the criminally insane was dangerous. Psychologists quit on a monthly basis. The staff called in sick a lot or simply quit. People would walk through that ward with their backs against the wall, afraid of being attacked by patients. It was not a pleasant place to live, work, or visit.

Dr. Len told me that he never saw patients. He agreed to have an office and to review their files. While he looked at those files, he would work on himself. As he worked on himself, patients began to heal.

"After a few months, patients that had to be shackled were being allowed to walk freely," he told me. "Others who had to be heavily medicated were getting off their medications. And those who had no chance of ever being released were being freed."

I was in awe.

"Not only that," he went on, "but the staff began to enjoy coming to work. Absenteeism and turnover disappeared. We ended up with more staff than we needed because patients were being released, and all the staff was showing up to work."

This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: "What were you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?"

"I was simply healing the part of me that created them," he said.

I didn't understand.

Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for your life means that everything in your life – simply because it is in your life – is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world is your creation.

Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is in your life.

This means that terrorist activity, the president, the economy – anything you experience and don't like – is up for you to heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to change them, you have to change you.

I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live. Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr. Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho'oponopono means loving yourself. If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone – even a mentally ill criminal – you do it by healing you.

I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing, exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?

"I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again," he explained.

That's it?

That's it.

Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve yourself, and as you improve yourself, you improve your world. Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone sent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it by working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the person who sent the nasty message. This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying, "I'm sorry" and "I love you." I didn't say it to anyone in particular. I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was creating the outer circumstance.

Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying "I love you," I somehow healed within me what was creating him.

In short, Dr. Len says there is no out there. It would take a whole book to explain this advanced technique with the depth it deserves. Suffice it to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look: inside you.

And when you look, do it with love.

Note: This article is edited from the book Zero Limits by Dr. Joe Vitale and Dr. Len. You can listen to Joe talk about his experience with Dr. Len and his involvement with the inspiring movie, The Secret, on News for the Soul by clicking here. He starts talking about Dr. Len at minute 15 in this highly engaging one-hour interview.

Dr. Len's message may be quite hard to believe, yet it's amazingly simple. He states that we are all responsible for everything that we see in our world. By taking full personal responsibility and then healing the wounded places within ourselves, we can literally heal ourselves and our world. As related by Joe Vitale in the radio interview, Dr. Len suggests a four-stage process for this work. Whenever a place for healing presents itself in your life, open to the place where the hurt resides within you. After identifying this place, with as much feeling as you can, say the below four statements:

• I love you.
• I'm sorry.
• Please forgive me.
• Thank you.

Please forgive me. Thank you.

Anthony Robbins’ 12 Reasons Why Most People Don’t Get Wealthy

Anthony Robbins’ 12 Reasons Why Most People Don’t Get Wealthy

According to Wallace Wattles, in his popular wealth treatise
called the Science of Getting Rich, said that, “There is a
science of getting rich, and it is an exact science, like algebra
or arithmetic. There are certain laws which govern the process of
acquiring riches, and once these laws are learned and obeyed by
anyone, that person will get rich with mathematical certainty.”

It is true. Those who make wealth know that it comes about by
application of simple rules and principles. Those who don’t make
wealth don’t know about these simple things, and so they assume
that wealth is a result of luck or pure chance or something just
as superstitious or silly.

Anthony Robbins is one of the top success coaches in the world,
having coached star sports players, heads of states and Fortune
500 executives. In his Get The Edge program, he listed down 12
specific reasons he has come to observe to be the leading causes
for most people’s lack of wealth. Here they are:

1. They never decide and really define, very specifically,
what wealth means for them. The keyword here is specifically. Can
you imagine how hard it would be to build a car or a plane
without making a blueprint or sketch drawings of it first? You
have to know what your target is before you go chasing after it.

2. They make wealth a moving target instead of a fixed one
(this is related to point one above). Once you have your target,
fix it. Don’t change it until you reach it. You must accomplish
each step, celebrate, and then set course for a new step, a new
target.

3. They define it in a way that seems unreachable. You only
achieve what you believe. No more, no less. So you must make it
believable for you. Set goals that will make you move forward and
stretch, but not too high that even you yourself don’t believe
you can. Take the biggest step you believe you can, achieve it,
then take the next biggest you believe you can. This will build
positive reinforcement in your self-confidence as well.

4. They never start. Ok, this is obvious. If you keep
thinking about it forever, it will forever remain in the thought
level. You have to act! Start somewhere, anywhere! Only after you
start do you begin to get some feedback which will help you plot
your course better. The aircraft has to first take off before it
starts to adjust course for its destination. You must start,
somewhere, anywhere, doesn’t matter, just start! Act!

5. They never make it a must. Let me explain what it means
to make it a must. It means marshalling all your intent, your
will, your direction, into one singular flow that is directed
towards your goal. All obstacles are viewed as challenges to be
overcome. You will meet obstacles, and so expect it, but also
expect to move forward anyways. Use your obstacles to develop
strength and skills, don’t run away. Find out how to go past
them. Find out! There is always a way, always. And if your
emotions are acting against your desire, embrace them, learn what
they are, know yourself, but keep moving forward. Make it a must,
and it will happen. Guaranteed. You don’t know in how many steps
it will take, but you know it will happen.

6. They don’t have a realistic plan. If you want to do
something, find out how it is done from someone who has done it
before. Make a realistic plan. Copy from those who have succeeded
before you. But don’t throw away your intuition. Your intuition
is extremely powerful once you learn how to listen to it with
practice.

7. If they have a realistic plan, they never follow through
on the plan. Well, if you don’t follow the plan, who will?

8. They give responsibility to others (”experts”) instead of
to themselves. This way, they never really learn how to do it,
and if there are failures they never learn why the failures
happened and so they are bound to repeat them. It is a good idea
to get advice, but do it yourself. At least understand it
yourself even if you will delegate the actual doing.

9. They give up when they face challenges. Going through the
challenges is what has made people rich, not giving up. Look,
there are always challenges. So get used to that. You will only
get where you wish to get to if you are willing to face the
challenges along the path. All challenges are opportunities
dressed in work clothes, remember that. After the challenge is
over, you will discover the amazing fruit it held for you.

10. They fail to conduct their lives as a business; they
never ensure that they make a profit year by year. Get a personal
finance package like Quicken or Microsoft Money. you need to have
budgets and cash flow statements for your personal finances and
your businesses. It is easy with those software packages. If you
don’t keep records and track, you wont know when you are making
or losing money until it is embarrassingly too late.

11. They allow other people’s ideas to affect their decisions
unreasonably. There will always be people who don’t believe in
your way, or who are pessimistic, who try to pull you down, or
whatever. And they will sometimes be your closest friends and
family. You cannot change that - they have a right to be who they
are. It is OK. Allow them their thoughts, don’t judge them for
that, but don’t feel obligated to accept their thoughts of follow
their way. Don’t allow other people, now or from the past,
unreasonably affect your decisions. Allow them their way, and you
live your way.

12. They don’t get quality coaching. This is extremely
important! Coaching is simply getting mentored by someone who has
succeeded wildly in the area of your interest. Get coaching! Our
education system hardly equips us for real life, so don’t assume
that because you went to college you are properly equipped.
Hardly. You need to keep learning. The most successful people
attend seminars, read books, join mastermind groups and clubs,
find mentors, network, and even hire expensive personal coaches
to make sure they succeed.

How many of these reasons can you identify with? Well, now that
you see the reasons, you now can look at yourself and make sure
that you don’t follow ways that are known to not lead to wealth.
Follow what works and it will work. And don’t forget to enjoy
yourself along the way.
