In this post, I’m sharing one of my Scratch Wisdom videos – minus the visual effects, just pure scratching,
This is the original scratch video I recorded before visual effects were applied, so that you can get a clear view of the exact scratch techniques I was performing.
Watch the video below and scroll down for more info about the project:
Project Background
Mental Toughness and Success Coach Chris Dorris wrote an awesome book called The Book of Mental Toughness Mantras. He commissioned me to give some of the chapters my “Scratch Wisdom” treatment, where I scratch his words over instrumental beats.
Together, we created a series, and this video is number 3 of 7 in the series.
This episode is an encouragement to view problems as gifts and shift from reacting to life to creating from it.
Lyrics
VIBE UP!
We are always either purifying or polluting the environment with our vibes.
We are always either purifying or polluting the environment with our thoughts.
Thoughts are measurable vibrationally.
We are constantly emitting vibrations.
And those vibrations are very detectable.Vibe Up!
Before I go into a birthday party with friends and family,
I’ll actually take a moment and literally elevate my state
by choosing to think my way into enthusiasm, joy, celebration, camaraderie, compassion and gratitude.Then I’ll walk into the party with this silent, invisible gift that I’m bringing that is actually detectable.
Without having to say a word about it,
I am automatically inviting everyone around me to elevate their own states.
It’s very contagious.
Joy and enthusiasm.
These high-grade states are very, very contagious.People, without even knowing it, are accepting those invitations to join you in elevated states.
The whole party gets even better.
And I’m not just talking about that birthday party.
I’m talking about the party of life.Think of some times or events in your life
where it could benefit you (and others)
to intentionally VIBE UP beforehand.
And get into the practice of doing that.Vibe Up!
