Jim Carrey - How To Manifest What You Want

not it's not Jim Carrey who can walk down the street just just you know doing anything he wants to and get away with it because nobody knows you you know after a while hopefully it'll be to the point where I can't walk out on the street won't that be funny where it'll be impossible to walk anywhere without being recognized when you create yourself to make it you're going to have to either let that creation go and and take a chance on being loved or hated for who you really are or are you gonna have to kill who you really are and fall into your grave grasping onto a character that you never were I saw this psychic palm reader sign and she gave me a reading and she said you're about to do three things three movies that will be very very very big and very important and after that it will be impossible for anyone to knock you down from that place I've worked in factories I had a ninth-grade and educated and it's a series of like crushing disappointments and I just go into a different gear I go into don't know how it's gonna write itself but it will you know I don't know how I'm the guy who wrote the ten million dollar check to himself and had it come to fruition and the guy who had the substitute teacher in grade two who said that you know whenever I want something I pray to the Virgin Mary and I ask her for it and I promise something in return and it got when I brought walked so didn't you write yourself a check I heard that you did is that sure I wrote myself a check for ten million dollars for acting services rendered and I gave myself five years my dad never sort of bicycle so I went I went home and I prayed for a bicycle and promised I'd say to rosary in return and then I got a bicycle showed up in my living room brand-new Mustang bike I put it in one of the scenes in eternal sunshine the Mustang bike was a banana seat just before Thanksgiving 1995 I found out that I was gonna make ten million dollars so you visualize men on it was whenever I wanted something to happen I manifested it I stood there in an open feel like this my arms out tell me about your dad [Music] my father was not only the funniest man in the room but he was a fantastic saxophone player and before I was born he had an orchestra in Toronto but you know in order to be something special you had to leave Canada and come down to the States improve yourself in the States he was a little bit afraid of that transition and and also he had a family to take care of so he became an accountant and as time wore on it warmed down you know it warmed down and he got a little bit bitter especially when he lost his job when he was 51 that really broke him not only was he compromising to raise a family but when you compromise and you fail it really hurts it hurts even more than failing at what you love so that was an example for me a lot of people don't know this but but when I was about 14 or 15 my father lost his job and I actually became homeless for quite some time of course I grew up in Canada so I thought we'd just gone camping you know I learned that you can fail at what you don't love so you might as well do what you love there's there's really no choice to be made [Music] what you want to be you know [Music] where did that transition take place somewhere in the middle of absolute confusion absolute disappointment absolute the fruition of all of my dreams standing there with everything anybody else had ever dreamed about having and be unhappy [Music] where did this character come from what is the dirt that the the Pearl is built around and the pearl is the personality that you build around yourself as a protection against that thought if they ever find out that I'm worthless if they ever find out that I'm not enough I'll be destroyed I don't want anything that's the craziest thing it's the weirdest thing to say in a place like America where I had no ambition really truly don't [Music] so many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality what we really want seems impossibly out of reach and ridiculous to expect so we never dare to ask the universe for it I'm saying I'm the proof that you can ask the universe for it [Music] because life doesn't happen to you it happens for you how do I know this I don't but I'm making sound and that's the important thing that's what I'm here to do sometimes I think that's the only thing that's important really you know it's just letting each other know we're here reminding each other that we're part of a larger self
