Obviously you knew somewhere inside yourself that you were destined to be famous because I think it's a really a marvelous thing that visualization thing you did John do you read about this or hear this that you used to go up on Mulholland Drive and every night and visualize seeing yourself is Yeah, I would visualize Yeah, this is when you were broke and poor right having directors interested in me and people that I respected and

saying, you know, I like your work or whatever that is. And I would visualize things coming to me that I wanted or whatever. This was in like 1987, 85? Yeah. And I had nothing at that time. So it was like, but it just made me feel better. It made me, at that time, all it really was for me was kind of making me feel better. I would drive home and think, well, I do have these things. They're out there. I just don't have a hold of them yet, but they're out there. I wrote myself a check for $10 million. Yeah.

for acting services rendered and I gave myself five years, or three years maybe, and I dated it Thanksgiving 1995. And I put it in my wallet and I kept it there and it deteriorated and deteriorated and stuff. But then just before Thanksgiving 1995 I found out that I was going to make ten million dollars on, I think it was

Dumb and dumber. Dumb and dumber, yeah. So you visualize yourself like... Visualization works if you work hard. Yeah, well yeah, that's the thing. You can't just visualize and then, you know, go eat a sandwich. Now fear is going to be a player in your life. But you get to decide how much. You can spend your whole life imagining ghosts, worrying about the pathway to the future, but all there will ever be is what's happening here.

and the decisions we make in this moment which are based in either love or fear. 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. As that shift happens in you, you won't be feeling the world, you'll be felt by it, you'll be embraced by it. Now I'm always at the beginning.

I have a reset button and I ride that button constantly. Once that button is functioning in your life, there's no story that the mind can create that will be as compelling. The imagination is always manufacturing scenarios, both good and bad, and the ego tries to keep you trapped in the multiplex of the mind. Our eyes are not viewers, they're also projectors that are running a second story over the picture that we see in front of us all the time. Fear is writing that script.

And the working title is, "I'll never be enough." There will always be someone who's doing better than you. No matter what you gain, ego will not let you rest. It will tell you that you cannot stop until you've left an indelible mark on the earth, until you've achieved immortality. How tricky is this ego that it would tempt us with the promise of something we already possess? I just want you to relax. You know, that's my job.

Relax and dream up a good life. And this time...

I'll keep it all. I'm fascinated by what creates characters. You know, what defines people. What creates them. What puts them together. Everybody's Frankenstein. And they just like, as life goes on, you either lose pieces of yourself, gain other pieces. And that's the fascinating thing about acting. These scripts find me. You know, they really do at certain times in my life. And, you know, for me, that was about...

You know, and a lot of the characters I've done so far have been about duality, about what you show the world and what you really are. And so I've always been trying to reconcile the two. Well, you're trying to reconcile in your life too, are you not? Absolutely. They follow me and they give me little insights into myself. And the Truman Show was that. It was, you know, I know that this face pleases you, you know, but now I'm going to show you the real deal. And I hope there's enough there that, you know,

that you can identify with, that we can sit together and break bread and you'll think I'm as special as I was before. My father used to brag that I wasn't a ham, I was the whole pig. And he treated my talent as if it was his second chance. When I was about 28, after a decade as a professional comedian, I realized one night in LA that the purpose of my life had always been to free people from concern, just like my dad.

And when I realized this, I dubbed my new devotion, "The Church of Freedom from Concern." The Church of FFC. And I dedicated myself to that ministry. What's yours? How will you serve the world? What do they need that your talent can provide? That's all you have to figure out. As someone who's done what you're about to go and do,

I can tell you from experience the effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is. Because everything you gain in life will rot and fall apart and all that will be left of you is what was in your heart. My choosing to free people from concern got me to the top of a mountain. Look where I am. Look what I get to do.

Everywhere I go, I'm going to get emotional because when I tap into this it really is extraordinary to me. I did something that made people present their best selves to me wherever I go. You look on this as sort of some combination of drive, determination, divine spark, luck, all of that.

It's a potion of some kind. There are a lot of elements that have to come together at the same time, I believe. Maybe there's a little bit of fate involved. I don't know. Maybe as a soul floating out in the ether, you just go, okay, it's my time. And everybody gets a chance to be this famous at some point if you believe in reincarnation or whatever. Maybe they go, okay, there are the parents that are going to set me off in that direction. Bam! And you go in there. Who knows? Maybe it's fate. Maybe it's that. Maybe it's just that I believed. I always believed. Believed. Whatever it

Form it took it would take play and if exactly and whatever form it took would be okay Yeah, because I was fully prepared to just play out, you know stand-up comedy and comedy clubs Yeah, but there's something within you that constantly pushed the edges of the envelope wherever you were well or at least took advantage of the opportunities that came around and a lot of it has to do with you know, just the courage to jump in I mean, you know to

Do films that are out of your so-called power alley as they call it is it takes nerves, you know? So I have the nerve, you know, and we'll see if I have the goods but I have the nerve and It I I'm just excited really about always changing about crossing back and forth across the river and throwing the hounds off the trail and

I love that. Just when we think we've got you, we know you, you're off on another route. Absolutely. And if I feel like I've been figured out, boy, look out. I will become something completely different. I might not want to become something completely different, but express something completely different. I always felt like if the world is going crazy, I'll be calm. And if they're calm, I'll be the one hanging off the chandelier. I am at the top of the mountain, and I was. And the only...

The only one I hadn't freed was myself. And that's when my search for identity deepened. I wondered who I'd be without my fame. Who would I be if I said things that people didn't want to hear? Or if I defied their expectations of me? But you guys are so ahead of the game. You already know who you are. And that peace, that peace that we're after,

lies somewhere beyond personality, beyond the perception of others, beyond invention and disguise, even beyond effort itself. You can join the game, fight the wars, play with form all you want, but to find real peace you have to let the armor go. Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world. Don't let anything stand in the way of the light that shines through this form. Risk being seen in all of your glory.

Your job is not to figure out how it's going to happen for you, but to open the door in your head. And when the door opens in real life, just walk through it. And when I say, life doesn't happen to you, it happens for you, I really don't know if that's true. I'm just making a conscious choice to perceive challenges as something beneficial so that I can deal with them in the most productive way. You'll come up with your own style. That's part of the fun.

You are ready and able to do beautiful things in this world. And after you walk through those doors today, you will only ever have two choices, love or fear. Choose love and don't ever let fear turn you against your playful heart. Thank you so much. I'm so honored.
