[Music] there's a bigger dream waiting for you just waiting for you to step into it [Music] everything you try to do is already done so when i figured that out oh what i'm putting out is what's coming back let me get real clear about what it is i'm putting out real clear so i read a book about 1989 called seed of the soul and in that book gary zukov talked about the laws of karma of the laws of cause and effect the third law of motion and in that book he talked about how intention your intention is always one with the law meaning before you even think about a thing you have an intention for the thing and that the intention is going to determine the outcome that's why the same people can go to the same church service and somebody walked down the aisle just to be seen to put some money in the church and somebody else who just goes and just has a little bit to offer the intention with which you give the intention with which you serve determines the outcome so when i figured that out i went whoa i changed everything i did on my show i called in the producers and i said from this day forward i will no longer be speaking to the kkk i will no longer be speaking to people who are fighting each other in a way that it is damaging to the character of myself and other people who watch from this day forward i am only going to do intentional television so it is my intention my intention to fulfill the dream of the creator it is my intention to live to the highest calling and be pressed to the mark of the highest calling that i have come to do and when you can ask the creator ask that which made you you what is your dream for me i guarantee you instead of you trying to define the dream what is your dream for me if you're able to lean into the dream that the universe and all the forces of of of of light and love and power and grace by all the names that we call god has for you nobody can touch you every single day i would have a pre-show meeting and have the producers come in and state to me what is your intention how do we want to use whoever is on this show whatever is happening on this show to serve the audience in a way that fulfills the mission of uplifting enlightening encouraging as well as entertaining and if it doesn't do that then i can't do it there's a bigger dream waiting for you just waiting for you to step into it to step into it your life is big your life is huge and we spend so much time wanting to be in somebody else's life and you don't get honored you don't get revered you don't get celebrating wanting what somebody else has because that which created you divine intelligence to dreamed you from before your ancestors ever knew they would become your ancestors that which dream the seed of you wants you to know how special how wondrous how mysterious how complex how glorious how phenomenal you are and you get no credit messing in somebody else's territory or trying to have power over something you have no control another one of my favorite teachings is the wizard of oz when the wicked which is the west says go away from here because you don't have any power here you have no power in any territory other than your own oh but you are the master of that you get to be the master of your own fate you get to be the captain of your own soul and if you just manage that if you just took care of your territory all the glorious glorious glorious wondrous wondrous opportunities and possibilities that are waiting for you so the question is what are you resisting what are you pushing against what are you not allowing what are you blocking because you have this idea of who and what you're supposed to be instead of leaning into the dream that's already been created and waiting for you it's waiting for you and the second i mean it doesn't it's an instant thing it's a shift in the way you see yourself and the power from which you have come i went through some tough times after after i left the oprah show i made a conscious decision that when i felt i had said all that i could say and the audience had heard it that i would move on and that i would not spend my life regretting or trying to hold on to what used to be or hold on to what i had so i dreamed this dream of starting a network and in the beginning it was it was a struggle it was a struggle because i didn't honestly goodness i did not know what i was doing i was trying to figure it out i was trying to figure it out i thought that the oprah show audience would follow us to own then i realized y'all didn't have cable and if you had cable you did not have the own package so so it took me a minute and unlike most people who you get to have your mistakes in private some don't go right in your life you get to soak about it in private if i make a mistake it's on the cnn crawl or the cnn news so when i was in the climb and there were so many wonderful owners i see churro action jackson here there were so many wonderful owners people who said oh we're going to stand with you we're going to stand by you thank you roland martin there were so many people who said listen we believe that this can happen so i dreamed the dream along with tyler perry who was my friend who came to me and said tyler tyler said i'm going to help you out because tyler can go home and write a script and direct it produce it and shoot it and do it for less money than anybody in hollywood so we started with the foundation of having have not [Applause] if loving you is wrong love thy neighbor mama hattie and then i started to dream another dream about scripted television because in the beginning i was told you couldn't do it you couldn't do it didn't have enough money to do it and i dreamed the dream i read proverbs 11 28 that says those who trust in their riches will fall but the righteous will rise and thrive like a green leaf [Music] you
