Welcome back everyone at the School of Greatness. Very excited about our guests. We have the inspiring James Doty in the house. Doctor, good to see you. Thanks for being here.

I am fascinated by this topic of manifestation. And I'm even more fascinated when you bring neuroscience research and studies that back the power of manifestation. Your new book, Mind Magic, The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything. I'm very excited about because you kind of walk us through these different steps on the process. of manifestation.

So first I wanted to ask you a question about the difference between the law of attraction and manifestation. Are they the same thing or are they different? Well if you look historically at the law of attraction it goes back to Hermetics, which is this group in the first or second century AD. And there was this belief in the mind, and they used the terminology, the law of attraction. And of course, then there's a guy, I think his name was Phineas Quimby, who uh uh then promoted this further, and this was in the 18th century or so, and then of course, or 19th century, and then we had uh, who was it, uh, Think and Grow Rich?
