I love my wife so very much. I think that she is incredible. Her insight and understanding is remarkable. Often we will sit and discuss things that I have been studying for weeks only to discover that she had been trying to teach me the principle I had just learned for years.
A friend at work once told me, “When the student is ready, the master will appear”.
I guess that as a student I was not ready for the ideas or principles that my wife has been painstakingly striving to teach me. However, over time I slowly began to understand things on a higher level. I became ready. Over time I had put myself into a position in which I could learn, really learn.
How slowly do we learn? In my experience it is very slowly.
I had a vision open up to my mind that revealed to me how little progress I had made in my life. To me it was a shock, as I had previously thought that I was doing really well. I was proud of the changes I had made, and believed that I was making great progress. In reality, I am boxed in by the boundary conditions of my thinking. I am limited by my beliefs and my progress is minimal. This is not what I want. I am not sure that I doubled my efforts, however I believe that I more than doubled my effectiveness. The things that I have produced in the last 12 months are staggering, and I know it is only going to get better.
The way to double our effectiveness is to expand the psychology of the mind. When we increase our belief in what is possible, miracles begin to happen. When we increase our psychology, the impossible begins to look possible.
Therefore the way to learn is by belief. The way to teach is by belief. The way to prepare ourselves for challenges that will come up, is by belief. The way to increase our ability to impact others is by belief.
This one fundamental change at the core of a person can alter the entire course of that person’s life.
For this shift to occur the belief must be in total congruence with the mind and heart of the individual. This requires, focus, commitment and a tremendous desire to see things improve.
All of this has been achieved in my morning ritual. My morning routine has 12 steps or components that I have gleaned from sports science, tony Robbins, and other places. What this morning ritual does for me is create an environment in my mind and body in which I am ready to ‘show up’ for my life. I show up for my relationships. I show up for my coaching sessions. I show up in every area or aspect of life because I ‘prime’ myself to live at a high level of effectiveness. I expect this of myself.
The results continue to stagger me, and my belief is that life will only continue to improve.
Join with Joshua Roy for a priming session today and begin your transformation.
