In this talk, Eli discusses the positive reception of a book focused on guiding individuals toward their soul purpose and personal fulfillment. Using the metaphor of a complex machine requiring every unique part to function smoothly, Eli illustrates how human society breaks down when people fail to embrace their true callings. By sharing inspiring examples of well-known leaders and client experiences, Eli urges listeners to overcome societal programming and actively contribute to the world by living out their authentic roles.

Overview and Book Reception

• Eli begins the talk with a lighthearted greeting, mentioning a positive initial response to a book written after following a calling three years prior.
• The book offers readers valuable insight into evaluating their lives, finding their soul purpose, and addressing feelings of dissatisfaction.
• Though Eli has gifted many copies to those unable to afford them, the overall goal remains inspiring others through shared life stories.

The Car Metaphor for Creation

• Eli presents a metaphor comparing creation and reality to a vehicle that requires every individual part—such as spark plugs, mufflers, and alternators—to function correctly.
• While animals and nature fulfill their intended environmental roles automatically, humans possess free will, making alignment with purpose a conscious choice.
• Society and global harmony suffer when human beings fail to perform their individual roles within this collective system.

Obstacles and Personal Examples

• Societal programming, fear, religion, and judgment often push individuals away from their true callings.
• Eli highlights Mahatma Gandhi as an inspiring example of someone who overcame personal doubts to fulfill a monumental role for his nation.
• Figures like Mel Robbins and Byron Katie are noted for enduring immense personal struggle before awakening to impactful careers that aid others.

Client Experiences and Soul Essence

• One client suppressed early artistic passions due to unsupportive parents, resulting in career unhappiness and coping behaviors like addictions and eating disorders.
• Another young client demonstrated 100% soul essence alignment in her career path after following a series of lined-up opportunities.
• A recent author client successfully overcame decades of delay to publish multiple children’s books containing meaningful messages for all ages.

Personal Responsibility and Final Call to Action

• Eli cautions against complaining about the state of the world without actively participating as part of the solution.
• Individuals are encouraged to overcome external opposition and find the grit to pursue their authentic purpose.
• The talk concludes with a reminder that the world needs everyone actively living their soul purpose.

Hola! Happy almost Friday. How are you guys? Look, I got Mickey with me today. Wendy said, let’s do Mickey, so we’re doing Mickey today. So good news, the book is doing well so far. I’m getting some amazing feedback, some really helpful information in there for people, for them to kind of chew on and look at their life and look at their soul purpose, things like that. Why aren’t they satisfied? Why aren’t they stimulated enough? Etc. So I got to tell you, three years ago when I was guided to start writing this book, I’m surely glad I listened to the invitation and so let’s do it, but it’s exciting and we’ll see what it does long term. But the short term, like I said, I’m really grateful. And because of that, I wanted to share something today. I’ve been using this metaphor in my therapy sessions with clients to help them understand the importance of living our soul’s purpose. So, the creator created all of this. Now, I don’t care what you believe in, but science, everybody knows there’s something behind all of this that put this together. And I looked up before I did this talk, how many creatures are on this planet. And it was a number of words I’ve never seen before, nano millions or something. There’s a lot, okay? There’s a ton, not just us humans, everything. And the wisdom that the creator had is like, I’m going to make this car run well, this creation, I’m calling it a metaphor for the car. So I need four good tires, I need six spark plugs, I need a good muffler, I need a good oil pan, I need a good this, an alternator, etc., etc. Well, if any of those parts in your car stop working well, or stop working completely, your car and your transportation is going to be in trouble. Well, that’s the problem on the earth. Now, the bees are pollinating, doing their thing, the rats are doing their things, cleaning out the ecosystem and being food for others, the grasshoppers are doing their job, but we’re not doing ours. Now, to be all fair and honest here, grasshoppers and beetles and rats, they don’t, they were given free will. They’re born to do their job. We were given the cross to bear of having free will. But I don’t know, you know, I’m more impressed with the human doing what it’s here to do, figuring it out, than a beetle doing what it’s here to do, because it’s going to do it. It’s just, it’s inside its whatever soul package, DNA, it’s just going to do it. But when I see a human, and I always use Gandhi, he’s one of my favorite heroes. This little Indian guy gets thrown off a train and lo and behold, that woke up, shook his purpose out and he was able to get the British out of India. No small task and it cost him his life in the end. But he didn’t care because he was doing what he was here to do. So if all of us were being a good muffler, a good this, a good radio, let’s say, a good seat, that car would be running well. If you look at creation and you see what the frick is going on here, because people aren’t doing what they were born to do. Now, part of that is, there’s a lot of reasons why we get off that path. And I call it the programming, you know, whether it’s religion, society, judgment, fear, etc., etc. There’s, there’s probably a big part of Gandhi that woke up when they said, “What the frick am I doing? You know, here I am this little itty bitty lawyer and I’m out here trying to get the British out of my country.” But it didn’t stop him. And that’s, to me, what’s wrong with the car of reality of this creation is because nobody’s doing what they were born to do. I had a client recently who told me a story. When he was young, all he would do is write songs and do artwork, creativity, things like that. And he loved it. He said, “I mean, I get up in the morning and I couldn’t wait to start, you know, a song is in my head or drawing this.” I see it with my great niece, Denali too. She’s a sweet little kid and she’s got this creative thing in her. But this kid’s parents did not support it. “You’re not going to make any money. That’s stupid, blah, blah, blah.” So he went out and got a job at some fricked up trade and developed all kinds of problems, an eating disorder, an addiction, a spending problem because his soul is not being actualized. I had another new client and recently I did some work for her and in her profession, she’s young, she’s in her late twenties and I told her, “We will calibrate to see how much of your soul essence is involved in her career.” And it was an amazing story how she got into her career. It was like the pieces were lined up and when Tim and I calibrated that, we got a hundred percent of her soul essence. So she was born to do this job and how she got there was amazing. And she played the yes woman a lot. So that’s what I want you guys to think about. When you look out in the world and you want to blame all these other people, caution yourself, be careful because we’re part of the solution or we are part of the problem. If you’re not here being the amazing spark plug you’re supposed to be or an amazing muffler you’re supposed to be, don’t complain about the car not running well or it’s too loud or shifting and all those different things. I’m not a car man, but you know what I’m talking about. So if we can figure that out and do what somebody like Gandhi did, and he’s just one of many, you know, people. Mel Robbins is another one. Her story, if you guys don’t know it, she wrote the book, Let Them Theory and things like that. And when you read about her story, Byron Katie is another one who created the work. It’s a psychological thing to look at your belief system. And these ladies suffered like hell. But one day they woke up and it became crystal clear. And with all the naysayers and blockings and different things like that, they pulled it off and they’re helping this planet get better. So, so I just wanted to share this. I haven’t been able to do a video lately. And lo and behold, I had ended up with a very light day today. So I thought I gotta get in there and talk about this. Lastly, I’m looking at it now. Another lady that I’ve met recently, she’s done a couple of classes at our office. She’s an author and she was wanting to be an author as a young girl. And it took her many decades to write her first book. And I’m looking at her first book sitting here and her second book, Mrs. Amazon’s gonna deliver her third book is going to press real soon. Really cool stuff. It’s kids books, but you know, there’s messages for adults too. But she finally had the grit and the wherewithal and to get the support to do what her soul was here to do. So, as I like to say, get busy living your soul purpose or get busy dying. Because this reality needs you more than ever. And I truly believe that. All right, listen, I’ll talk to you guys real soon. If you haven’t gotten the book yet, get it. I’m getting amazing feedback. And it’s not about selling the book. You know, if it were up to me, you guys could have these. I’ve given so many away to different people in that sense. I’ve gotten them to the ones that couldn’t afford it just to get out there and try to get inspired. Because Eli’s story is your story. It’s just going to be different. All right. Love you guys. Bye bye.
