Seminars, workshops, life coaching and re-patterning sessions. Am I spreading myself too thin? Well, the truth is that I am here, there and all over the place. I have run a couple of seminars, on things that I have been studying for 5 years. Then I go and begin to teach about money like I’m an expert, or as if I actually know something about it. A topic that I have limited understanding about. A topic that I do not have experience in. Some of these topics are foreign to me, and they are ideas and concepts that I myself cannot endorse through personal experience and knowledge.
There is something wrong here. What I learned today was that there is a mammoth difference between teaching principles that I don’t believe, and teaching principles that I do. The not knowing or the lack of experience could not fully support the principles that I was teaching. In some ways I felt that my unconscious mind was working against me in the teaching of the principles.
There was an in-authenticity about the teaching. Its the old principle that in order to teach it, you must know it. Not just know about it, but know it. In other words be intimately familiar with it. This is where I fell short today and I felt it. I felt it big time. Money is not something that I can currently teach. I can only teach wealth from a middle class perspective. I can teach, get a job and make money. I can teach to invest. I can teach to live within your means. Beyond that I cannot really teach too much. This limitation came through in my teaching, and I even felt the in-authenticity in the teaching. What I mean is I felt like I was in-congruent. The incongruity kept me from teaching wealth with authority. That is interesting. I was thinking about this and I feel like I have to go back to that which I know. I need to practice the things that excite me and create changes in others. I need to revisit the unlock your incredible self seminar. This is my bread and butter and this is where I shine.
I taught, and yet it felt flat. It was a really great lesson for me to learn that I had jumped the gun. Furthermore teaching that I’m worth $200 an hour will hardly inspire anyone. I get that. I really do understand that this principle is a poor one for me to teach with any authority. It is a poor one for me to inspire people about.
Where do I go from here. Well, it is time for me to really begin the challenge of re-patterning my mind around wealth and prosperity. What I learned today is there is so much work to do in this area. What I learned today is that there is a gaping chasm between where I am and where I would like to be. This gap makes me really want to learn, grow and develop in this area.
Therefore I learned that I need to learn the principles that I talked about this day. I need to then implement them into my behavior. I also need to work with my unconscious mind to ensure that the new principles that I am installing take root. I need to ensure that cement themselves into my mind. That my unconscious mind will assist me and help me to move in the direction of my goals around wealth and money.
The other thing is that I did the workshop today for myself, and not for my clients. I talked way too much, and should have allowed more class interaction. I should have encouraged them to be more involved in the learning process. I needed them to move and participate more in the learning process. It was a sit and listen rather than a workshop. It was long winded and exactly the type of seminar I want to learn from.
The greatest thing is that I get to learn. I get to reset myself, learn from the errors and then resume AccessWorldSeminar.
Will I teach wealth again. Absolutely. I will begin to work with my clients and make wealth a big focus in my life. Furthermore I can and will re-pattern my mind in the area of wealth. It is time that I create changes for myself and those that I coach. I may not be able to teach business principles, and massive wealth creation from experience, however I can teach how to take the wealth principles of a millionaire and install those systematically into my own unconscious mind, so that I begin taking different actions, and thereby produce different results.
Teaching the principles is great, however I must teach with the accessworld style of teaching. I must create re-patterning throughout the days, weeks and months ahead so that I can stand and teach about these principles with authority.
The professional gets paid. The specialist gets paid more. Yet it is the Authority that gets paid the most.
Today I gave a good talk. It was professional, and good. The information was valuable. There was two limitations, and that is that I did not speak as an authority, and I did use high energy. This was the major difference between this and other seminars. Every other seminar I spoke as with both authority and energy because I had actually practiced the principles I was teaching. This time was different, and therefore I am grateful that I went through the experience. I feel I needed to go through the experience. I now feel that I have to continue to make massive changes within myself so that I can teach these things differently. The conviction is that one day soon I will teach this Workshop with authority. At that time life will have shifted dramatically toward the positive. I can then walk away knowing that I have given my all, and that I practice the principles of wealth. The objective is to create unconscious competence in this part of my life.
I get that I am a baby when it comes to business principles. I really am limited. Furthermore growth is only as good as my incorporating the principles into my life. Knowledge is not about information, it is about application.
In saying all of this, I spoke to one of my clients and he told me that he really liked it. He expressed to me that after the meeting he really wants to make changes in this area of his life. He expressed that he saw a new possibility in his financial future and that was a great thing for him.
I recognise that I am very hard on myself. I recognise that I am holding myself to a very high standard. Yet, doing so helps me to produce results even when I feel like I am flat. I recognise that because I consistently do the basics, meaning my morning routine including, incantations, breathing, visualising, gratitude and exercise, I am always on a fairly high energy.
When things don’t go quite as well as we hoped they would, we grow.
