Over the past ten years, I have had over 100 mentors that have assisted me with transforming my reality and living a prosperous life. Of all the mentors that I worked with, Tony Robbins stands out as one of the best. Love him or not, he has and continues to be an inspiration for millions of people.
Recently, I found a great video of Tony where is dispensing some excellent information about why we do what we do and how we can do it better.
Watch this 22 minute video, and tell what you learned from it that could help transform your life.
So, what did you notice about them? Did they change your mind after they performed their respective songs?
When most people initially look at both Paul Potts and Susan Boyle, they think don’t fit our societal concept of success, talent, and ability. In fact most people just write them off by their looks alone. It was apparent to me that both lacked any serious confidence at the beginning of their songs. However, as they progressed through their respective song, you could see confidence radiating out from them. I immediately got Lesson #1 from these videos, which was the old adage that “you can’t judge a book by it’s cover.”
How many times in a day do you judge people you met for the first time? Even more important, how many times a day do you judge your ability and talent when a “big” idea pop into your consciousness? Do you say, I can’t do that because I am not smart enough; I don’t know the right people; I don’t have the talent; I don’t have the money, etc.?
If you are falling into this trap, you are hindering your success because all opportunities are in other people, so don’t discount them. Secondly, you have the talent to complete any idea that you receive from the Universe; otherwise, the Universe wouldn’t have given it to you in the first place. If you don’t know how to do it, the Universe will send you the right people that will assist you if you are willing to implement the idea.
The second lesson that I learned while watching these videos is that Paul Potts and Susan Boyle had a love and a passion for using their talent. More importantly they have a dream, and they pursuing it. I think that’s a great reminder for each of us to examine what’s going on in our lives. Are you really going for your dreams and are you enjoying the experiences. Believe it or not, you can succeed if you desire it enough and allow the Universe to assist you.
There are many additional lessons that I learned while watch these videos, but I would like to get your thoughts and ideas.
“There are no impossibilities or limitations in the world except in your mind”
One of the things that keeps most people from really going for their dreams and goals in life are their excuses. We have excuse about everything. We have excuse about being too short or being too fat. We have excuses about not having the “right” education or about having a “bad childhood”. We have excuses about how ” bad” the economy is doing or about how life is unfair. The excuses are endless.
Excuses. Excuses. Excuses.
These excuses whether spoken or unspoken reveal the primary obstacle to us living a prosperous life. If we would jus give up our excuses, we will have an amazing life. Contemplate on this question? “If you had no more excuses, what would you Be, Do, and Have?”
Recently, I was contemplating on this question, and I found this amazing video online that really gives you a different perspective on excuses. Watch it, and I know you will be inspired to release you excuses.
Here’s what I was thinking about while watching this video:
You can BE, DO, and Have just about anything if you let you don’t limit yourself by your excuses
Have an inner circle of people who encourage you and support your dreams and goals. Release anyone from your life who tries to keep you playing small by validating your excuses.
We each have the choice to either be a victim of circumstances or be a hero and overcome the obstacles placed in our path.
Our ability to adapt and thrive is amazing!
Now, there were many other things that I really liked about this young man and how he has overcome his inability to use his physical sense of sight.
Now that you have watched this video, what are your excuses for playing small in life? Give them up and start living your dreams.
Personal Development is something I have been passionate about since I was a teenager; however, my own healing journey started about 8 years ago, was when I began to discover the possibilities of creating my life based peace, happiness, and prosperity. As I discovered the power within myself, I attracted people, books, and classes to aid me on my journey of healing myself and returning to wholeness.
I began my own journey of healing when crisis had struck me in my life after going nearly financially destitute. Everything I thought myself to be was taken out from under me, and I had no idea who I was.
In the beginning of my journey, I was searching for the secrets to being financially free and successful. I read books and listened to tapes on visualization, goal setting, and using affirmations, but I was not getting the results I wanted. As time went on, I became depressed, angry, and frustrated with the world. As a way of protecting myself from feelings of my financial “failure”, I suppressed the pain of my emotions, but all that changed when I was introduced to a process that transformed my reality.
At the time I was a working as an insurance agent, and one of my clients who was training to be an energy therapist asked if she could demonstrate a process that would release my anger and frustration. At first I was skeptical, but I was very amazed by the process after using it. As she continued with the process, I began to access the repressed emotional pain and release it. Immediately I began to feel shifts take place in my body and my mind. During that initial session, I discovered limiting beliefs of being “undeserving and unloved” stemming from a my childhood. I saw how these beliefs had literally controlled my life and stopped me many times from going after what I wanted.
With this process, I was able to reframe and create my new identity by changing the way I looked at myself and the world. I received many new perceptions about myself and the world, and I was able to see the lessons I needed to learn to awaken.
What was this amazing process that allowed me to easily release my suppressed emotions? It is called Emotional Freedom Techniques or EFT.
What is EFT?
Emotional Freedom Techniques is an Energy Psychology process developed by Gary Craig, a personal performance coach in California, that uses the ancient Chinese meridian system to eliminate all kinds of emotional, mental, physical and spiritual discomfort.
If you are familiar with acupuncture, you know that the body is made of a system of meridians. The meridian system was mapped out by the Chinese over 4000 years ago and is the basis of all acupuncture treatment. Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) use the same wiring as acupuncture except there are no needles; instead you tap with your fingertips on some of the acupuncture meridian points.
The theory of Emotional Freedom Techniques is that the cause of all negative emotion is a disruption in the body’s energy system.
Strong negative emotions cause a shock in our systems, creating the equivalent of a short circuit in our energy system. Strong emotions can be triggered by a thought, a memory, or an event (depending on how you think about the event). For instance, if you think about how angry you are that your spouse yelled at you, you may feel tension in your body.
Once there is a build-up of emotional or psychological distress, one of these pathways or meridians becomes blocked and must be cleared or aligned in order for healing to occur. Using EFT, you can balance the energy system which stops the power of that thought from affecting your body in that way. . Once the energy circuits (meridians) are then realigned, balance to the energy system is restored. You may still have the thought and the memory of what occurred, but without the emotional intensity that the thought was associated with. You are then much more able to think about the event differently. Your thoughts become more flexible.
While the theory may not make much sense to you, what I know is that EFT works.- often quickly, and often dramatically. I have seen this with my own eyes over and over again.
EFT has been proven clinically effective as a simple yet powerful way of releasing fears, phobias, anxieties, angers, addictions, and all kinds of emotional and physical issues. This is a new paradigm in healing because it no longer takes months or years of therapy and boxes of tissues to resolve problems. With EFT, specific issues can often be dissolved in minutes - forever!
The beauty of EFT is that ANYONE can learn how to apply it on themselves. It is painless and harmless, and it is completely safe, simple and easy to use.
