“We are part God...If God's within me, then the devil's within me, and for me, if I'm giving voice to God the most, God then overrides the devil. It's neuroplasticity kicking in because the more that you use one part of your brain, the more that that part is the one that's going to take hold and support whatever it is that you're trying to achieve or you're doing.”
