Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Man, Welcome back to Coast to Coast George Nori with
Speaker 2: Randall Fitzgerald Randall. Before we talk about your work the
Speaker 2: tow of intuitive luck, let's finish up about animal rights.
Speaker 2: Where are they.
Speaker 3: Yes, back to that Supreme Court decision. So, after the
Speaker 3: referendum was passed in California, which gave just some very
Speaker 3: simple basic rights to livestock animals. For instance, they can't
Speaker 3: be confined in such a way to where they can't
Speaker 3: move in the cage or whatever. After it was passed,
Speaker 3: the National Court Producer's Council appealed to the Supreme Court eventually,
Speaker 3: and they claimed that it was an unconstitutional law because
Speaker 3: it interfered with interstate commerce. So it got before the
Speaker 3: Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court rejected that argument, and
Speaker 3: it was the first time that the Supreme Court had
Speaker 3: ever ruled in favor of animal welfare or animal rights.
Speaker 3: So for some of the different beef and port producing
Speaker 3: councils and so forth, they saw it as an unfortunate
Speaker 3: act because it may open the door to future legal
Speaker 3: challenges to how animals, livestock animals in particular are treated.
Speaker 2: When do we take calls with Randall Fitzgerald next hour,
Speaker 2: share some of your animal stories on how they have
Speaker 2: shown you the intelligence. Now, when you wrote the book
Speaker 2: last year, The towe of Intuitive Luck, what does that mean?
Speaker 3: Well, the towel is a word that means pathway, and
Speaker 3: what I had in mind in researching and writing the
Speaker 3: book is that you combine intuition and luck together. Most
Speaker 3: people think of them as separate, but when you combine
Speaker 3: intuition with luck, you have a pathway to having more
Speaker 3: success in your life. And by that I mean it's
Speaker 3: not just about games of chance and gambling, but it's
Speaker 3: also about decision making, and it's about seizing opportunities and
Speaker 3: sensing opportunities and using synchronicities when they occur as patterns
Speaker 3: or pathways. So the now is a pathway toward using
Speaker 3: your intuition to be luckier in life. And I came
Speaker 3: up with a formula based on lots of interviews and
Speaker 3: lots of research and looking at the science evidence. There
Speaker 3: was sort of a five part of formula that I
Speaker 3: described in the book, and if you want, I can
Speaker 3: go through the risk I call them luck factors. Yeah factors.
Speaker 3: The first one is feel your intuition. We all feel
Speaker 3: intuition differently, and it's about learning where in your body
Speaker 3: you pick up signals of intuition. For some people, they
Speaker 3: pick it up as a sensation in the solar plexus,
Speaker 3: or a tingling in the stomach or a tingling in
Speaker 3: the skin, or it can be a mental image. There
Speaker 3: are lots of different ways physically to pick up the signals,
Speaker 3: and everyone is different than unique in how they are
Speaker 3: receivers for these signals. So it's important to learn how
Speaker 3: you feel and how you sense intuition in your body.
Speaker 3: And then the second intuitive luck factor is about setting
Speaker 3: an intention. We've probably read most of you have heard
Speaker 3: about the intention factors and how to set intentions and
Speaker 3: how important they can be in the power of manifestation, etc. Well,
Speaker 3: all of that is involved in this process. You have
Speaker 3: to set an intention around not only feeling of where
Speaker 3: intuition is going to occur in your body, but also
Speaker 3: opening the door consciously and subconsciously to a willingness to
Speaker 3: cast decide rigidity in mental frames of mind in order
Speaker 3: to be open for those intuitive signals. And then the
Speaker 3: third intuitive luck factor is about quieting your mind. Anyone
Speaker 3: who's practice or experimental with intuition knows that meditation is
Speaker 3: a great key for opening that doorway. If you can
Speaker 3: quiet your mind, quite your thoughts, and feel in that
Speaker 3: quiet space where intuition is occurring in your body, then
Speaker 3: meditation becomes a sort of an accelerator in its own
Speaker 3: way as a method, and then intuitive luck. Factor Number
Speaker 3: four is about channeling excitement, and that has to do
Speaker 3: with the sensation we've all felt at some time in
Speaker 3: our lives, and it's called a beginner's luck. The beginner's
Speaker 3: luck idea where you have the excitement of something new
Speaker 3: and you turn out to be lucky good at it
Speaker 3: at the first time you try it. Like I give
Speaker 3: examples in the book of women who have never played
Speaker 3: poker before or never played the roulette machines who end
Speaker 3: up being lucky the first time they ever do it.
Speaker 3: So the sensations that are involved, the excitement, the sense
Speaker 3: of something new, and what that does in terms of
Speaker 3: our willingness to experiment, all of that's important. So channeling
Speaker 3: your excitement number four and the last one to the
Speaker 3: blood factor. Number five is about programming your dreams. It's
Speaker 3: a capacity we all have. It's called lucid dreaming. It's
Speaker 3: setting the intention when you go to sleep that you're
Speaker 3: going to have a meaningful, impactful dream that's going to
Speaker 3: open the door in a conscious real life to an opportunity.
Speaker 3: Whatever that may be, whatever intention that you've set, but
Speaker 3: it's setting that intention to program your dreams, and then
Speaker 3: when you wake up, being open, to clear your mind
Speaker 3: and write down whatever has come up in that unconscious
Speaker 3: state that will give you the information you need for
Speaker 3: that day, that week, or at any point in your
Speaker 3: life to be lucky.
Speaker 2: Randall, do you know Professor Joseph Gallenberger.
Speaker 3: I do. Indeed. Joseph and I have communicated about my
Speaker 3: book and about his work, and I feature his work
Speaker 3: and his retreats in Las Vegas that he has hosted
Speaker 3: over the years. I feature that in this book, The
Speaker 3: Doubt of Love.
Speaker 2: He is a staunch believer in luck, in making it happen,
Speaker 2: isn't he?
Speaker 3: He is, indeed, and he's gone about this, you know,
Speaker 3: he's clinical psychologist. He's gone about it in a very
Speaker 3: interesting way because he's examined the psychology of luck and
Speaker 3: sort of the attitudes and behaviors that are necessary for
Speaker 3: us to adopt as individuals in order to be able
Speaker 3: to channel that energy, and he does think of it
Speaker 3: as an energy that can be harnessed. And that's where
Speaker 3: his retreats where people pay to go with him to
Speaker 3: Las Vegas and they spend a weekend or sometimes longer,
Speaker 3: and he teaches them how in a casino on the
Speaker 3: floor to go to various games of chance and to experiment,
Speaker 3: like we're all guinea pigs in our own life experiments.
Speaker 3: But he does it in a very methodical, clinical, scientific
Speaker 3: sort of way.
Speaker 2: What is it about attitude that changes your luck?
Speaker 3: Well, for instance, this sort of makes common sense that
Speaker 3: if we start our day in a depressed, pessimistic state
Speaker 3: of mind, then we're going to see everything through a
Speaker 3: foggy los and that attitude that we otherwise would need
Speaker 3: to open ourselves up to intuitive information and to opportunities
Speaker 3: that's closed off. But if we start our day in
Speaker 3: a positive, open minded sort of frame of reference of
Speaker 3: consensus reality, then we find usually at least I do,
Speaker 3: and most of the people I interviewed for this book have,
Speaker 3: we find that we are more intuitive during the course
Speaker 3: of the day, and we end up being luckier because
Speaker 3: our attitude has shaped our response to the circumstances and
Speaker 3: challenges of life.
Speaker 2: Pretty dramatic work, Randall, isn't it?
Speaker 3: Well? It's simple and yet complex at the same time.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of research on all of this, on
Speaker 3: various aspects of it, and so this five factor formula
Speaker 3: that I've put together is really just based on the
Speaker 3: combination of common sense and a lot of para psychological
Speaker 3: research by people like Dean Raydon and others.
Speaker 2: Is there an outside source that helps make this happen
Speaker 2: or was this something that the internal person generates.
Speaker 3: I think it's both. I think there's an interaction, an
Speaker 3: interactive aspect to this. We have to set the stage
Speaker 3: for ourselves internally in order to access whatever energetic force,
Speaker 3: if we want to describe it that way, exists that
Speaker 3: we were connected to. We know that at all levels,
Speaker 3: vibratory patterns or at work within our bodies, between ourselves
Speaker 3: and between people, and between nature and our experience of nature,
Speaker 3: all of these vibratory patterns create a complex web, and
Speaker 3: it's within that complex web that the energy of luck,
Speaker 3: I think, permeates and can be accessed.
Speaker 2: How many times have people gone into a casino with
Speaker 2: a bad attitude, and they know they're going to lose,
Speaker 2: yet they still go.
Speaker 3: Yes, well that's the force of habit. I experimented for
Speaker 3: a number of years with my attitudes just to see
Speaker 3: what the effects would be. And nine out of ten times,
Speaker 3: I mean generally nine ten times that a person goes
Speaker 3: to a casino, they lose. There's a house advantajab Beach.
Speaker 2: Vegas was not. Vegas was built by losers.
Speaker 3: Yes, you know, the law of average is some probability
Speaker 3: theory all favored in the house. However, what I also
Speaker 3: found was Attitudeally, whenever I would go into the casino
Speaker 3: in a negative frame of mind or with a sense
Speaker 3: that I was feeling like a loser of that day,
Speaker 3: it wasn't just nine out of ten times, with nineteen
Speaker 3: out of twenty times or more that I would lose.
Speaker 3: So attitude does help. If nothing else, attitude helps bring
Speaker 3: about a discipline that we need at times in order
Speaker 3: to know when to stop, in order to know when
Speaker 3: to start, in order to know when to stop. It's
Speaker 3: a discipline name that occurs through our attitudes that we adopt.
Speaker 2: Is there one aspect of luck that is the most
Speaker 2: important or do you need all five of those pointers
Speaker 2: the same.
Speaker 3: I believe that you need all if you're going to
Speaker 3: be chronically successful. Let me put it that way. I
Speaker 3: think the intuition part of it, though. I mean, some
Speaker 3: people have that innately and naturally, and they're able to
Speaker 3: access it unconsciously, and they'll say to themselves, I don't
Speaker 3: know how that happened. I don't know how I got
Speaker 3: so lucky. But then when they really examine it, and
Speaker 3: I tried to interview a lot of people in casinos
Speaker 3: who were on luck streaks. I'm fascinated by luck streaks
Speaker 3: that defy probability, and I would interview them and ask them,
Speaker 3: how were you feeling when you walked in today? How
Speaker 3: are you feeling right now? Do you feel like your
Speaker 3: attitudes in any way facilitated the experience of luck that
Speaker 3: you're having right now. And for that information that I
Speaker 3: generated through literally dozens and dozens of interviews over the years,
Speaker 3: I began to see that there was a real life,
Speaker 3: experiential piece of the foundation that was being laid that
Speaker 3: all of the parapsychological research in laboratories has affirmed.
Speaker 2: What does science say about this randal?
Speaker 3: Well, lots of studies have been done We have to
Speaker 3: remember that in the nineteen thirties at the Rhyme Laboratory
Speaker 3: at University where parapsychology in this country got its start,
Speaker 3: all of their original experiments had to do with dice rolling, dice,
Speaker 3: had to do with cards and card reading. These were
Speaker 3: all games of chance out of casinos that they were
Speaker 3: using for their experiments. And all of the initial foundation
Speaker 3: of research findings came from those nineteen thirties experiments with
Speaker 3: different games of chance, and all of that has been
Speaker 3: built upon in much more sophisticated ways in the ensuing decades.
Speaker 2: In two thousand and three, there was a great movie
Speaker 2: called The Cooler with William Macy, and he was employed
Speaker 2: by Vegas casinos because he was so energetically negative. People
Speaker 2: lost when he just walked by them.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, it's an interesting take on the so called
Speaker 3: energetic force of luck that there is a bad luck,
Speaker 3: flip of the coin good luck, and William Macy portrayed
Speaker 3: someone who, by nature, based on his depression and his
Speaker 3: attitudes and his status in life, he was someone who
Speaker 3: was like a polarity that could be magnetize the luxtreet
Speaker 3: that people were on.
Speaker 2: And then he fell in love, and all of a
Speaker 2: sudden he wasn't a cooler anymore.
Speaker 3: Yes, And then of course he loses his job with
Speaker 3: the casino because they couldn't use him anymore. He wasn't effective.
Speaker 3: And I always had to wonder after that movie, in
Speaker 3: sort of a choking way, I don't know that coolers
Speaker 3: truly exist in casinos. Obviously it would be difficult to
Speaker 3: find out if they do and how to identify them.
Speaker 3: But if that were true, if the two thousand and
Speaker 3: three movie The Cooler was extrapolated to casinos and the
Speaker 3: belief factor in an energetic force was put to work,
Speaker 3: I could certainly see where it would be one more
Speaker 3: strike against the normal player.
