On this episode we get down to the metaphysical level of maneuvering through life by faith. To see beyond appearances with the joyful expectancy of God working always, and in all ways, on our behalf. The good news is that all it takes is having the faith (expectancy) the size of a mustard seed to move a mountain. What is the mountain? The mountain is us. The doubts and negative messages about ourselves and our circumstances. As we pivot our thoughts from fear-based to faith-filled everything improves, because the mountain’s been moved. Our consciousness creates our reality. Guest Marty Thurman motivates us with the fact that a little bit of faith is a game-changer.

A strong desire always carries with it the power for success. “Psychologists agree that we influence people and events by having great desires and great goals. It is as though everything, and everybody subconsciously tunes into our big desires and goals and gets busy helping us to achieve them.” —Catherine Ponder. Your big ideas, bold desires, and lofty goals carry a stronger, creative accomplishing force than small ones. They magnetize people, events, and unforeseen forces to bring them to life. By contrast, “playing small” weakens desire, and dissipates results. Do not diminish the truth about what is that you really really want. Accept it! Never feel ashamed of the great good you desire, it’s God’s gift waiting upon your acceptance. Jillian Gotlib joins Darrell Fusaro in sharing experiences of how the bigger, bolder, daring desire—when acted upon—releases a magnetic force that causes people and circumstances that support your desire to appear in your life with divine timing.

“Boat goes up, boat goes down, —I just stay in the boat.” –Overheard at coffee shop. This is a reminder to keep the faith: trust in the invisible God power at work and “In nothing be anxious,” but “In everything by prayer and thanksgiving, let your request be made known unto God.” On this episode we share the miraculous results that occur when we pivot our attention from fear, doubt, and worry to thanking in advance. Once the thanking begins miracles start happening. The key is to believe God is handling it and not to give up 5 minutes before the miracle. Guest Larry Broughton’s experience highlights the fact that the greatest demonstrations come at the 13th hour, inspiring us to keep the faith.

Love is the shortcut to success. Whatever your desire, it’s just 3 steps away. The first step is to be in love with your desire. The second is to trust that God is for you, not against you. And just the fact that you finally are embracing your desire as a possibility for yourself means that you’ve accepted the truth that God is at work arranging things on your behalf. The last step is the action step. What is the action? To express love. To simply be kind to those you come in contact with. Resist the urge to try to manipulate conditions to get yourself in front of the “right person.” Simply be kind to whoever it is that’s in front of you wherever you are, and they will turn out to be a golden link in the chain of your good fortune. On today’s episode, we share real life experiences of how gambling everything for love always pays off in miraculous ways. Today’s guest, actor Steven Tom Thorpe inspires listeners with recent stories of how he’s been loving his way to the top.

Peanuts cartoonist Charles Schulz makes it clear, "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.” Emmet Fox shares the key which is, “No matter how unattractive or how dangerous the road ahead may be, it is better than the road back. The road ahead may be veiled from sight—but you must teach yourself to regard the unknown as friendly. Remember that God is always on the road ahead.” We ought to always move forward with faith, the joyful expectancy that good fortune is in the cards. This attitude becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, since it’s the Universe’s job to match our frequency. On this episode we share examples of how there is nothing to oppose our good and even if some unexpected problems should arise, maintaining a faithful attitude will set it right. Guest Cathy Norman motivates us to have fun using prayer, the alchemy of the mind, to transform our reality for the better. “After all, He’s famous for great and unexpected acts. There is no end to his surprises.” Job 5:9

Teach only love is a simple, everyday practice from A Course in Miracles. We are always teaching others by way of our reactions to life. We should pay attention to what we are expressing—fear or love—because whatever we teach through our reactions is what we experience. Fear condemns, love heals. When you pause, forgive, and choose love instead of judgment, peace and happiness return, stress drops, and your energy lifts emotionally and physically. In addition, as you let go of attack thoughts your inner attitude improves, your outer circumstances begin to improve as well—relationships improve and life flows with less effort. On this episode we reinforce how practical it is to be conscious to teach only love. Miranda Arieh founder of HEROES, Healing, Education and Recovery Of Emotional Strength motivates us all to teach only love.

As individuals the key to good health, happiness, love, success, and prosperity is to always be willing to follow joyful nudges: our intuition. As Shakespeare puts it, “To thine own self be true.” It’s the God within each of us nudging us to expand, learn and accomplish new things. It really is our inner genius. The only hurdle in following this divine intelligence is the willingness to let go of our sense of security in what is, in order to trust and step into the unknown. On this episode we’ll share examples of recognizing intuition and the wonderful experiences that always happen when we follow its lead. Metaphysician Nicholas Gunn shares insights that will make it easy for you to recognize, identify and trust your intuition. 
Todays affirmation: I am always under direct inspiration. I know just what to do and give instant obedience to my intuitive leads.

Yes, and…, with Joan Steadman

Carl Jung is famously quoted as stating, "What you resist not only persists, but will grow in size". This means that by fighting against unwanted thoughts, feelings, or situations, you actually give them more energy, making them stronger and more dominant in your life, a concept often summarized as "what you resist persists". So what’s the solution? To just surrender? Yes it is. William James said, "Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune". However to do so takes faith. It takes committing our faith into the belief that Divine Order is active and always at work. Trusting that arrangements are being made on the unseen plane for your greatest good makes it easier to surrender. Why not for just one day try the following experiment? Whenever tempted to fight against people and conditions put your absolute faith in responding with an internal, “Yes, and…”.  It’s seems to awaken a joyful expectancy. The statement, “I wonder what wonderful thing will come from this?” does the same. Today’s guest Joan Steadman joins us to share examples of how surrendering in this ways always invites unexpected good fortune into our lives. 
Affirmation: I GIVE THANKS FOR THE PERFECT SOLUTION TO ALL PROBLEMS.

Emerson said, “All successful men have agreed in being causations.”They believed that things were not by luck, but by law. The law of life is the law of belief. Whatever you mentally accept and feel to be true, will come to pass. Everything begins within our own consciousness. Our consciousness is our thoughts, feelings and beliefs about ourselves, and the world around us. Belief can be considered synonymous with expectation. There’s an ancient saying that, you don’t always get what you pray for, but you’ll always get what you expect. What is a belief? A belief is just a thought that we repeatedly think and accept as true. So for better or worse, our life experience is conditioned by the stories we’re telling ourselves about ourselves and our circumstances. On today’s episode, Darrell and guest Christine Valentin share examples of how they’ve experienced being causationists and the simple ways they practice to pivot from telling the same old stories to new and improved ones. 
Today’s affirmation is: 
“I have the power to change my mentality and when I change it my outer expression and experiences must change too.”

Spend just a few moments watching a video on social media, and an AI algorithm assumes you like it—then starts feeding you more of the same, for better or worse. Here’s the funniest thing: our reality works exactly the same way. Artificial intelligence isn’t inventing anything new—it’s mimicking how the universe already works. Life responds mathematically and precisely to what we give our attention to. In that sense, our lives can become echo chambers. What we focus on, we get more of. So how hard is it to start a new and improved algorithm that brings you what you really want in life? It’s just as simple as it is online: choose different content. The fastest and most effective way to shift your personal algorithm is through gratitude. When you become genuinely grateful for what you already have, you begin receiving more experiences to be grateful for. Gratitude tunes you into the same frequency as the good you desire. The key is to give your attention to what you truly desire and resist the temptation to give any attention on what you do not desire—because the algorithm (or the universe) will faithfully match it. On today’s episode of Funniest Thing!, Darrell and guest Jeff Spikes share the practical ways they have each started a new and improved algorithm when life wasn’t reflecting what they wanted. Today’s affirmation:“I think a new thought, and the Universe cheerfully responds.”
