Excuse the impromptu recording on the mobile phone of this short Independence Day transmission. This article in the Atlantic form the same day supports some of the points. Remember that American is the first Nation State in the world to make "The Pursuit of Happiness" part of its ethos as an unalienable right as written in the Declaration of Independence. So what was behind that statement?

[0:12] So, Isabel asked me to speak a few words about independence and how you do it. What does independence mean? Well, we can think about independence at a collective level.

[0:31] But the collective level is just the accumulation of consciousness at the individual level. And so you can't create independence from the outside in. You can't go and structure it outside so it would be white. Depending on who you are and how deep, how authentic is your level of connection to who you really are. That's the journey. You can't go starting to fix the country. You can't start talking about independence and what it means if you're not an independent being. What are we dependent on? Who are we dependent on? Whose stories are we listening to? Whose stories have become our own stories? Whose stories are more important to us? That they like our stories than us just being our own story that's weird.

[1:50] Self? because if you think you're going to keep moving dead tears in your life to get to that next level it doesn't happen that way, You arrive to the level within you and then it just shows up because it's the only way that you see things and it's the only way you attract things. The whole electromagnetic field changes, the reality changes because you have changed. So you can move tech chairs all day long. I have companies coming to me, entrepreneurs coming to me all the time and they think that what I'm going to talk to them about, how do I raise my first million dollars and how get people to understand and all I said is how do you become so authentic about what it is that you believe that you become what it is that you want to do it to the radius of when people see it and people are attracted to it and they will give you what you need to do it as long as you create.

[2:51] Your authenticity can only stay alive if you find a way to be relevant. What does that mean? It means who is out there, who is out there, who is out there, who is out there. Genuinely means what it means that i have and if i give it to them they will be so grateful for what they receive that will give me back all that i need to continue to do it and do it at the highest level of that's the energy that i've created for a while but it's all based on authenticity i cannot tell you how many business seminars i've done where everyone again wants to It tells you all the details. If the story is broken, you'll only create broken outcomes. You've got to start from a place of clarity. And that clarity comes in the independence of stepping into it on a daily basis. You're most involved in yourself. And making decisions based on that filter. How does this decision impact me in becoming more of my post-law thinking self, or is it another distraction when I tell myself a story and if I do it somehow or other it's going to get me back to where I want to be?

[4:17] So if you want to build a great country, you need great people.
