Key Take Outs

 “The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.” Alan Watts

• Behaviours and then beliefs. You can have all the beliefs and desires for what it is you want but true belief is created by actions and behaviours. Follow and adopt behaviours of those you look up to and those you consider successful and watch your beliefs develop and grow.
• Take time for yourself. It’s important to give yourself time. Time to gain clarity, time to plan, time to dream, time to create visions, confirm affirmations, being grateful, and just time to relax.
• Focus, novelty, boredom. The challenge for the entrepreneurial type is the ability focus.  Its ok to have a few projects but rather than starting, stopping, changing, getting bored, try focusing on one project, get it of the ground and once its up and running move onto the next one.
• Smarter people. The successful surround themselves by smarter people.
• Share your uniqueness and express your inner most self. Stand up against what you believe is the normal, the status quo, what others expect of you and how society expects you to behave. Connect with your inner truth, be yourself, and express this to the world. This will be a much greater and more pleasurable journey and you will make greater impact in this life.
• What is the compromise? For what you want in life and all that you desire what must you do to get it? There will be compromise. What must you sacrifice to get what you want to gain?
• Fall in love with the idea and the process. The thing that stops many us for chasing what we want in life and all that we desire is the discipline and love for the process. We get passionate about the idea and fall in love with the idea but it’s the process that is tough and can knock us down. Fall in love with the process.
• A life by your souls design. Create a life of your souls design not of what culture defines. This is the hidden why!

What advice would you give to your 20-year-old self?

Quote

“I use to think nature was mute and then I realised I was deaf.” Terence Mckenna

What does living life with passion and purpose mean?

Die before you die, find out how to die before you die and just let go. Stop trying to solve the truth of the universe and instead let it just be it.
