Matt Cooke shares three principles he wishes he'd known earlier: the universe always says yes to what you focus on, the universe lives inside you as an infinite energy field, and giving is more powerful than receiving. He argues that shifting your attention to abundance and adopting a giving mindset transforms your vibration and attracts better outcomes.

If I could go back to my younger self, these are the 3 things that I know would absolutely change his life. The first is the universe always says yes. The second is the universe lives inside of you. And the third is the energy of giving is far more powerful than the energy of receiving. Let me explain. So right now, in this very moment, you are in a state of manifestation. You are creating right now. And wherever your observation is, whether that's on the lack in your life or whether it's on the prospect of what could be in your life, is a form of manifestation. The problem is the majority of people, especially me back in 2019, I was more focused on the lack. The moment I switched that observation and caught every time I was falling negative and every time I rehearsed and visualized that thing that I sought already being in my life, the synchronicity started to come. And the reason the universe says yes is it reflects who you're being in the present moment. So if you're seeing lack, chances are you'll start to see more lack. If you start seeing abundance in your mind's eye, the universe will say yes, and you'll start seeing more abundance coming in your life. The second is the universe lives inside of you. What does that mean? It means we are all part of the same stuff. Where we're manifesting from is an infinite field of unifying energy. It's an illusion to believe otherwise. So the place you're manifesting from is you. You are the universe. So what we need to do is remove that illusion, slow down, get more present, and when we connect with it, then we start to see synchronicity. And the third, and I think the most important, is the energy of giving. Because when people start with manifestation, it's all about me. It's all about what I want to receive to change my life. But the problem with the energy of receiving and wanting is lack. And that observation and that broadcast keeps the thing away. But if you switch it and say, how can I give? You're no longer waiting. How can I give more love? How can I give more abundance in the world? How can I give more knowledge? And when you, when you tune into the energy of giving, because you attract into your life who you're being, that energy that you're embodying by giving You just attract back that same energy, and that's exactly what to do. If you follow those 3 things, I absolutely promise you, you'll massively change your life.
