Life can be lived in different ways: attracting people who benefit your path or attracting those who are destructive, seeing opportunities or missing them, being capable of taking advantage of opportunities or not, being happy each day or heavily dependent on external circumstances, feeling nervous and anxious or calm and satisfied, having a sense of meaning and fulfillment or living in emptiness and meaninglessness. All of this can be chosen and changed by working with your mind and body. It sounds like magic until you find and master the appropriate tools.
