The Power of Awareness | with Brad Hart

The Aligned Influence Podcast

Sometimes, we think we have it all only to realize that we have nothing. And sometimes, it takes losing everything to find out who we are and what we want from life. Pain has a great deal to teach us, if we allow it to. And if we open ourselves to the lessons pain has to offer, we can learn more about ourselves and our world. We can move forward in life with this new awareness and transmute that pain into great achievement and accomplishment.

My guest on this episode is Brad Hart. He shares his story with us and how he went from bartending at night to running his own multi-million dollar hedge fund and why he left all of that behind. Brad has an inspirational and abundant view of our world and wonders why we compete, like hungry hippos, for all of the marbles. Why not make more? To answer that, Brad founded MakeMoreMarbles. MMM has become a vehicle for Brad to share his gifts with the world and massively impact the lives of the people he serves.

Powerful Quotes from our Guest on This Episode:

“I wanted to help create something out of nothing. Why do we have to grab for all the marbles? Why don’t we just make more?”

“The Universe is expanding in every direction endlessly. When you think about abundance, there’s so much out there. We haven’t even tapped into any reasonable percentage of it.”

“Only the things that you perceive before can you perceive again. Once you make a decision to step out of that and say, “what if I consider another angle?’ What might show up is fascinating but until you take new action, you won’t get new results.”

“We’re all part of this woven tapestry of existence.”

“People don’t get what they want, they get what they are.”
