Humans find comfort in the herd.
Humans find comfort in collective thinking.
Humans are generally wrong, as the herd of sheep is generally always going the wrong direction.
Something that has helped in my experience is to find the person that stands out and not follow them necessarily, but listen to what they have to say and question why they are saying it.
That will lead to deeper discussion, deeper debate, and deeper thinking.
Who knows you might both just learn something you didn’t initially understand.
Bob Proctor talks about all humans wanting to “know.”
Ignorance leads to worry/doubt which then leads to fear and expresses itself in anxiety.
Then anxiety internalizes itself in to disease and depression.
Knowing or knowledge is the opposite of ignorance.
Knowing leads to understanding which leads to faith and expresses externally through well-being.
When we do this we are “at ease.”
Hope.
Bob talks a lot about humans having hope and that is manifested through knowing or understanding.
Obviously the Bible talks a lot about this as well as it said that, “humans cannot live on bread alone.”
One of the things I committed to years ago was reading at least a few minutes (maybe 5 or 10 minutes) about something positive or maybe some Bible verses or personal development that would put me in the right “state” to start my day.
I have no idea where I would be if I did not do that repetitively each morning when I got up.
“What is easy to do is easy not to do” as Jim Rohn always said.
With a handful of children and people to lead each day, it is one of the keys to success in my playbook.
It’s one of the things I have found that lone successful person walking the opposite direction from everyone else does and the average person does not.
It’s no secret that the 1% have what the 99% do not have.
Quite simply, successful people do the things that many of us either don’t know to do or choose willingly not to do.
It’s not our fault though because none of us are taught these things growing up.
School certainly does not teach you this and you can only be given what your parents or what your family has been given, before them.
Now is the time.
The last 10 years for me was the time to change.
I’m hoping this sparks you to maybe make a little change in your life you have been wanting to make.
We all are given signs at different times in life.
I wish I would’ve had this when I was a young child before I went through my hockey career.
That’s not how life works though.
As we all know, life isn’t fair.
Nor would we want it to be, otherwise we would all be robots doing the exact same thing all day every day.
We can only do or make decisions based off of what we have, right here, right now.
To your success,
