Any of the stories that you've had in your life, I went through this, I had this, and I challenged childhood and all that stuff, it's all bullshit. You may not believe me, but if I sat with you for a period of time, and we narrowed it down one by one, you would be in tears of gratitude for what happened in your life. You can be a victim of history or a master of destiny. It all depends on your perception.

Today, I'm sitting down with Dr. John Demartini.

He's a world-renowned author, coach, speaker, and somebody you're going to want to listen to. What you're about to watch is a live in-person coaching session, and it gets really uncomfortable, but we have major breakthroughs. This story begins a little over a year ago, probably two years ago. I'm having dinner with a couple of friends, new friends. Tim Francis and a guy named Rohan. And they're both telling me about this remarkable person. Separate stories, and I don't know the names of anybody just yet, except for I know what Tim said to me, which is, if you could attend one workshop in your life, just one, this is the one that you have to meet this man. He has an incredible way of helping people through some very tough, traumatic things in their lives. And I was really intrigued. And then the other story was the gentleman across the table from me. His name is Rohan. He was telling me about how he had, in the last couple of years, gone through some really traumatic stuff. His father had died. His business partner stole money from him and stole the business. And then Meta Facebook canceled his accounts, which he had close to a million followers. He was devastated. And he was having a hard time. And he called his coach and he was telling this whole story. I'm like, this is remarkable. This is incredible.

Tim Francis just texted me. He says, do you know Rohan when he was telling that story? Do you know who his coach was? I'm like, I don't know. I have no idea who his coach could be. He said, Dr. John Demartini.

Small world. So he's helped a lot of people through lots of things. He has something called the Demartini method, obviously, and it helps people through some of their toughest roadblocks. And I'm hoping, rather than just me extending the interview, is that first we can just describe it so everybody here knows what's going on. And if there is somebody who has something they'd like help with, for Dr. Demartini to demonstrate, we can work on it together and see, hopefully, just the genius behind all this. And I just want to be a student here and listen and learn.

The quality of your life is based on the quality of the questions you ask. The questions you ask make you conscious of what you've been unconscious of. So it helps you expand awareness. And the method, which I've been working on for 52 years, is a series of very concise questions that help you discover the hidden order in the apparent chaos, the disorder. Claude Shannon, in information theory, basically said that information that's missing is entropic and represents disorder.

And if you reclaim the information, you can find the hidden order in things, why things are occurring, the meaning behind it. So it's a very series of concise questions to help navigate people from emotional distractions to poisoned presence. So they can be grateful for their life instead of comparing it to an unrealistic expectation that they projected. And I'm blessed to use that and develop that for many years.

And we've helped people in all different types of situations.

I make a statement that there's nothing your mortal body can experience that your mortal soul can't love. So it doesn't matter what you've been through, what you've gone through, what you've experienced. It's your perceptions, decisions and actions on how to interpret it. You can be a victim of history or master of destiny. It all depends on your perception. William James said the greatest discovery of his generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their perceptions and attitudes in mind. So this is a science, a reproducible science that I've trained probably eight or nine thousand people in using and they're using it around the world to assist people in navigating through the apparent chaos so they can look at life on the way, not in the way.

Chris Do (3:55)

Every word is a lot to unpack here and that's how I felt last time. So how do we do this so that we can get a taste of how this process works? Because I think I'm 100 percent bought in on this idea of the quality of questions you ask determines the quality for life. When you start to ask questions, you start to look inward and understand why you can overcome these things and the perception of what has happened. You can drastically alter your destiny or where you end up. How do we do this? Because I just want to give you your space, you do your thing, and I just want to sit here and only chime in when necessary.
