In this Season 14 review (Episode 368), Andrea Samadi revisits key clips from her original interview with Bob Proctor (Episode 66), exploring how frequencies, imagination, and intuition shape our goals and results.
We will cover: 
Tip #1: How to Understand Frequencies and Levels of Vibration
Tip #2: You’ve Got to Follow Your Heart
Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal Thoughts and Mental State

 
Three takeaways: use your imagination to move to the vibration of your goal; follow your heart as an inner compass; and remember your external environment reflects your internal thoughts and beliefs.
Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren’t taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience.
I’m Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen?
Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives.
That’s why I’ve made it my mission to bring you the world’s top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We’ll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results.
 
For today’s Episode 368, we’re going back to Episode 66<a href='#_edn1'>[i]</a>  for PART 3 of our review with the late Bob Proctor—the first person who challenged me to think.
We covered in PART 1 EP 366<a href='#_edn2'>[ii]</a>: 
✔ Top Lesson from Episode 66 – Where we refined the question: “What do you really want to do with your life?” hoping that midway through 2025, we can refine our goals, and see if we are on track.
✔ Sage Advice Tip #1: “We have been given the mental faculties to create our own environment. “We explored how to go beyond our five senses and tap into the six higher faculties of our mind (further developing our reason, intuition, perception, will, memory and imagination.”
✔ Sage Advice Tip #2: “There’s only one mind.”
We looked at how our actions matter because we are all deeply connected.
✔ Sage Advice Tip#3: “We are a soul—we don’t have one.”
We reflected on the perfection within each of us, and how this perfection continually drives us toward bigger and better possibilities.
We covered in PART 2 EP 367<a href='#_edn3'>[iii]</a>: 
Sage Tip #4: “If we want to improve our RESULTS, we must focus on the six faculties of our mind—reason, intuition, perception, will, memory, and imagination.”The key is to choose one of these faculties and dedicate time to studying and applying each one until you see real results from your deeper understanding.
Sage Tip #5: “Goals are not set to get; they are set to grow.” Reminding us that sometimes goals don’t unfold the way we expect, and that’s okay—as long as we keep moving forward and growing. To do this, we must keep studying, learning about ourselves, clarifying what we truly want, and seeking specialized knowledge in our field from those who have gone before us.
Today, EP 368, PART 3

Bob begins this clip by talking about The Law of Vibration and why it’s so important to understand how frequencies work. Many of us have heard of this law by now, especially since the movie, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne brought it into the mainstream. But my first introduction to understanding frequencies was back in the late 1990s, when I was teaching in the classroom and picked up Bob Proctor’s book You Were Born Rich.<a href='#_edn4'>[iv]</a>
I still remember hiding the book behind my binder during a staff meeting at the Toronto District School Board—I couldn’t put it down until I’d finished it. That book changed the way I looked at everything. Suddenly, I began to see new possibilities in areas where I might have once been closed off.
What captivated me wasn’t Chapter 1, Me and Money, or even Chapter 2, How Much is Enough. It wasn’t about money for me. What drew me in was Chapter 6—The Law of Vibration and Attraction. In that chapter, Bob shared what he had learned from the late Dr. Wernher von Braun, covering everything from science and religion, to the cosmos, to rates of vibration and frequency.
That chapter expanded my mind—it even touched on the connection between the brain and body, a topic that would fascinate me even more 25 years later. It also revealed how powerful positive thinking can be for our health and wellness, while introducing the foundational Laws of Success.
I wanted to learn more, so every time Bob held a seminar, I made sure to attend. From spending time in his offices, and sitting in these classes, I began to pick up how to promote these seminars to others, that started with bringing something new home to study each night.
Eventually, I started talking to seminar attendees on the phone, explaining Bob’s upcoming seminars. On these calls, I discovered what other people were studying. They would ask me, “Who else are you learning from?” and at first, I honestly didn’t know anyone else teaching this material. But I listened carefully, wrote down the names they mentioned, and searched for their books at the library—this was long before we could just go online and find everything instantly.
Sometimes people would drop off other programs for Bob to review. I remember one day, someone left a cassette tape set at the office and asked me to pass it along to him. Curious, I opened the package and saw the title: “Special Subjects Vol. 1”<a href='#_edn5'>[v]</a> by Abraham-Hicks, covering The Law of Attraction. I realized that, while not many people knew about this material, those who did were using it to achieve incredible things.
On the way to Bob’s house that evening, I couldn’t resist. I slipped one of the tapes into my car stereo and listened as I drove. When Bob opened the door, the first thing he asked me was, “Did you listen to one of them?” I was stunned—how could he possibly know? I admitted I had and said, “Yes, and the program is really good.” I wasn’t sure if I’d get in trouble for listening first, but instead, he later handed the tapes over to me to keep.
I must have listened to them more than 100 times. That program led me to Abraham-Hicks’ books, audio programs, and seminars—where I met people from all walks of life: pro athletes fine-tuning their mindset, business leaders sharpening their edge, and everyday people like me, hungry to learn and grow.
Those cassette tapes opened a door. Each word studied brought me back to that time when I was just beginning to understand this material—discovering a whole world of wisdom waiting to be explored. I will be sure to link other places you can go to learn this topic, if you would like to dive deeper.
What helped me the most, was when I saw an image describing these frequencies, or levels of vibration. We’ve looked at and explored this visual often on this podcast, that matches how Bob explains goals and frequency on the clip we selected. The image shows the Goal (target) at a higher level (the star), with lines representing different frequencies or levels of vibration. The word “DECISION” marks the point where you shift to a higher level to match the frequency of your goal.

We learned in this clip that “when we image a goal, what we’ve done is take our mind off on a trip. And we’ve gone to a new frequency, beyond where we are living.” We learned that it is our imagination that moves us out of our current state of awareness (or vibration) using the “screen of our mind”—the place where we see and create new possibilities before they exist physically. This “place” isn’t physical. It’s the inner screen of our mind, the same concept explained in The Silva Method<a href='#_edn6'>[vi]</a>, where you consciously project images, ideas, and goals in mental pictures. That’s where creation begins—before it’s expressed in the outside world.
I’ve often wondered, “How exactly do we shift to a new level of vibration?” It’s not something that’s easy to explain until we’ve experienced it ourselves. Looking back, the path seems clear—just as Steve Jobs once said, “we can only connect the dots backwards.” But moving forward, the process feels less obvious.
We move to a new vibration when we’re in harmony with what we truly want. A powerful example of this is being in love—when we resonate deeply with someone, we’re on the same frequency. At times, this connection runs so deep that we can almost sense each other’s thoughts (a kind of telepathic communication). When we share the same frequency, it feels like magic unfolds.
The same principle applies to our goals. Once you’ve decided what you want—whether it’s a career change, a relationship, or a new opportunity—you must connect your heart to it. Feel the resonance, and then use your imagination to paint the picture on the screen of your mind. With practice, patience, and belief, you’ll one day look back and see there were no limits to what you could achieve. Until that moment comes, keep moving forward, keep growing, and keep reaching for the stars, moving up those levels of vibration or frequency.
Sage Tip #1: How to Understand Frequencies and Levels of Vibration
“When we image a goal (on the screen of our mind, something that we resonate with) we take our mind on a trip and what we’ve actually done is gone to a new frequency. We’ve used our imagination to get there.”
If we can see it in our mind, with our imagination, we can hold it in our hand.

There were two important lessons from this clip.
Sage Tip #2: You’ve Got to Follow Your Heart. 
According to Bob, listening to your "heart" means trusting your intuition and emotional mind to connect with the divine side of yourself. He explained that this "heart" is not the physical organ but the subjective, feeling side of your mind that holds your deepest desires. 
I remember after the interview, (back in June 2020) I wrote this on my wall, (you’ve got to follow your heart) and have used this as a sense of guidance ever since. We learned in this clip that “if you follow your heart you’ll never make a mistake, for as long as you live.”
Do you listen to your heart? It’s this tip that brings us back to understanding frequencies, because when we are listening to our heart, we are paying attention to what we are in resonance with. Our deepest desires that will take us to whatever it is that we REALLY want to do with our life. All of these tips blend, and tie in together, like the colors of the rainbow.
Sage Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal Thoughts and Mental State
If we don’t like what’s happening in our external world—our job, our results, our relationships, or any part of our life we’ve created—we must first look within. Our outer circumstances mirror the thoughts and beliefs we hold inside.
In As a Man Thinketh, James Allen reminds us of the power of our mindset:

"Mind is the Master power that molds and makes,
And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes
The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,
Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills—
(depending on what we are thinking).
He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:
Environment is but his looking-glass."
The phrase “environment is but his looking-glass” means that your external environment is simply a reflection of your internal thoughts and mental state. The world you experience is showing you what’s happening in your mind.
REVIEW AND CONCLUSION
To wrap up this week’s Episode 368, PART 3—where we revisited two powerful clips from Episode 66, our interview with Bob Proctor—where we explored three key takeaways:
Sage Tip #1: Understanding Frequencies and Levels of Vibration
We discovered that there are infinite levels of vibration, and when we align ourselves with the frequency of what we truly want, magic happens. This is how we become one with our goal. There are no limits—only the challenge of using our imagination to bridge the gap between where we are now and where we want to be.
Sage Tip #2: Follow Your Heart
Listening to your heart means trusting your intuition and emotional guidance to connect with the divine side of yourself. Your heart can serve as a powerful compass to guide you toward the right decisions and opportunities in life.
Sage Tip #3: Your External Environment Reflects Your Internal World
If we don’t like what’s happening in our external world—whether it’s in our job, relationships, results, or any area of life—we must first look inward. Our circumstances mirror the beliefs and thoughts we hold within. As James Allen reminds us in As a Man Thinketh: our outer world is always a reflection of our inner state.
With that thought, I will close out our 3 PART review of EP 66, and hope that calling out these tips that I thought were important will help us all to sharpen our saw, and find ways that we can all move confidently in the direction of whatever it is that we are working on this year, taking us to greater heights.
I’ll see you next week as we revisit EP 98<a href='#_edn7'>[vii]</a> with Dr. Dawson Church, an award-winning science writer who blends cutting-edge neuroscience with inspiring stories of people who have experienced brain change firsthand. Neural plasticity—the discovery that the brain is capable of rewiring itself—is now widely accepted. What’s less understood is just how rapidly these changes can occur, how profound they can be, and the degree of control each of us has over reshaping our thinking.
My goal is that we build on what we uncovered in our review of EP 66—refining the question of what it is we truly want—and then explore how to direct our thoughts inward to create lasting change with our goals and results.
