KING: We're back.

I want to get some questions in from the audience and wind up from each of our panelists.

Jocelyn McCarthy (ph).

QUESTION: Yes.

Hi, thank you.

My question is how do you manage personal, professional and spiritual life in this demanding society?

RAY: That's harmonic wealth. It really is. You know, I think you -- I think that presupposes that you can't do that. You absolutely can. You absolutely can. You need to make a decision you can. You need to sit down.

I would encourage you to sit down right now and make a list of the five key areas of life, financial, relational, intellectual, physical, spiritual and what exactly you want to create and attract in each of those areas. And then keep your attention on that, regardless of what's going on around you and you'll begin to create it.

KING: And one more from Ron Drescher (ph) and then a follow-up with each of our panelists -- Ron.

QUESTION: All right.

Thank you.

I want to be more happy, spiritual and at peace in my life. How do I get started?

KING: Joe? VITALE: Find things to be grateful for right now. Right in this moment. The fact that you can ask this question, the fact that you are alive, the fact that you're breathing, the fact that you're living wherever you're living.

Find a reason to be grateful, much like you mentioned earlier, with a tear in your eye because it is so genuine for you. Out of that gratitude you will find more things to be grateful for. And out of that gratitude you will find happiness right now.

KING: Jack, explain give more to get more.

CANFIELD: Well, basically, the universe responds. If you give, it comes back to you. We've been talking about giving out vibrations. The vibrations come back. The same is true with money. If I give more money, more money tends to come back in my life.

Every time, Larry, that I've gone and done some kind of volunteer work, something's happened out of that experience where I've met somebody, maybe a bank president, who then hires me to come speak to his company.

It always comes back. So basically, people that are successful -- I mean, you had Donald Trump and Kiyosaki on your program not so long ago. And they're two of the biggest givers I know. And so by giving, they get more back. And I think that it's true for all of us. So givers get.

KING: Dr. Pratt, how do you start a new day to start a new life?

PRATT: Well, I like the gratitude list in the morning. And then doing the two minutes of imagery of the different elements that you want. If you want to change something in your life, make that part of the end result imagery, in terms of balance, spiritually, mentally, physically, et cetera. Make that part of that two-minute imagery, so that you can come back to it, so you're mindful during the day, you're aware of it. And so your attention is continuing to be focussed on it.

KING: Jayne, isn't change the hardest thing?

PAYNE: Actually...

KING: The thing we fear the most.

PAYNE: ... it's the thing that's feared the most.

However, change within itself will happen automatically whether we want it or not. Change goes on every day. It's how we react to the change in our life that determines what the outcome will be.

KING: James, how about world problems and the effect on daily life? You look at an Iraq or you look at hurricanes, North Korea setting off a bomb.

RAY: Right. KING: It's easy to say, I'm not too sure about tomorrow.

RAY: It is. I mean, we have a nation in fear. We have a world in fear because we're bombarded all the time with the things that are going on that appear to be so heinous.

But here's the thing, we live in a dualistic world. The law of polarity says if there's an up, there's a down, if there's an in, there's an out. What that means is if you're in a really challenging situation in your life right now, there's something there that's really amazing about it as well. But you're not putting your attention upon it.

See, when you shift your attention, you being to think about it. During the difficult times in our life, Larry, we learn and grow the most through challenges. Don't wish for an easier life. We wish for greater capability to ease elegantly through life.

KING: Only have a minute or so left.

Do you have bad days, Jack?

CANFIELD: I don't have bad days. I can't say I never had...

KING: You don't have bad days?

CANFIELD: No.

KIND: You have bad days, Joe?

VITALE: Occasionally I have bumps in the road, but I certainly get through them much faster than I used to.

KING: Jayne?

PAYNE: I don't have bad days anymore.

KING: Doctor?

PRATT: Quick recovery with the new techniques.

KING: James?

RAY: I don't have bad days. I have challenges, but challenges are a part of life.

KING: James Ray, Jack Canfield, Dr. Joe Vitale -- George Pratt, Joe Vitale, rather. Dr. George Pratt and Jayne Payne on "Beyond the Power of Positive Thinking."
