By Mauro Libi Crestani. When the
actor Jim Carrey was only 14 years old, his father lost his job, and his family hit rough times. They moved into a VW
van on a relative’s lawn, and the young aspiring comedian—who was so dedicated
to his craft that he mailed his resume to The Carroll Burnett Show just
a few years earlier, at age 10—took an eight-hours-per-day factory job after
school to help make ends meet.
Carrey lives his life according to the law of attraction, a belief system that argues that “‘like attracts like,” and that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts, one can bring about positive or negative results.
When Jim Carrey did his movie –YesMan -.
It was about a man who had negative attitudes and he meets a guru that teaches
him the power of the word – Yes. Jim did not get paid for this
movie but agreed to take a percentage. But this movie changed his life similar
to the character that he played. Soon after this movie he wrote himself a ten
million dollar check where he wrote for acting services rendered and he dated
it for Thanksgiving 1995. He was so sure that if he write himself such a check
the power of attraction would make it happen. Very soon before Thanksgiving
1995 He received a check in about that amount for his movie Dumb and
Dumber. Till the day that he actually received a real big check , he kept
his fake one in his wallet believing in the power.
Soon after Yes man, Carrey did a
movie called Popper. That was where he got as a inheritance
some penguins. In the movie he thought they were a curse but when he changed
his attitude, that his gift was a blessing, his movie life became a blessing.
Jim was careful to pick his movies that all had some
positive theme. As he really believed that any negativity in his life that he
introduced would attract more negativity.
So when he was offered to do a movie Kick Ass
2. He declined doing the movie because he said he had an anti gun
stance. But it was more than that. His character remains trapped in a
world of violence and sin. It was a perfectly sensible one for someone who
believes in the law of attractions. That’s why Carrey had to distance himself
from it—to keep that negativity away from him.
“I believe in manifestation,” Carrey says at one point in that clip. “I
believe in putting a rocket of desire out into the universe. And you get it
when you believe it.” By Mauro Libi Crestani.
