Whither permitting? Vaccine passports

שרון גל - 06-07-21

I wish I had learned these potent ideas when I was twenty years old...

...I’ve embraced and integrated them now, yet not knowing them cost me a lot over the years.

2 Transformational Insights I Wish I'd Learned at 20

You’ll never know if you don’t even try. There is giant power in asking for what you want. All too often, our internal chatter prevents us from taking the steps needed to get us to our own unique form of greatness. We get kept small from our inner imaginings-so many of which are lies.

The best of the best, those who live glorious lives – that matter – ask like crazy. They understand that it’s a habit that must be polished for it to shine. And the more you do it, the easier it gets (like any skill). And so they ask.  For the support and help they need at work. For the understanding they may seek at home. For a break they need for their business. For a better table at their favorite restaurant. For a better seat at a sold-out concert. And because they ask more, the get more (success always has been a numbers game).

Nothing happens until you ask. People are not mind readers. They need to know what’s meaningful to you, and if you ask nicely, they just might say yes.

Nothing Happens Until You Ask

העולם על פי שפטל - יורם שפטל - 15-07-21

Most people on the planet today are terrified of being alone.

And yet, there are multiple benefits that come to the leader who carries the wisdom of being alone more often in this noisy world:

...it is in solitude that you build intimacy with your gifts plus talents.

...it is in quietude that we can do the deep inner-work that allows us to bring our finest games to our marketplaces (and communities).

...it is when we are alone that we receive the opportunity to build a relationship with who we truly are.

...and great geniuses leverage serenity to capture the insights that allow them to disrupt their fields and make history.

SoS 135- How Upright Walking Made Us Human with Dr. Jeremy DeSilva

The Mistral, is a strong wind that commonly occurs in southern France, blowing down from the north along the lower Rhône River valley toward the Mediterranean Sea. As the wind reaches the Rhône delta, gusts can often hit speeds of 130 km (about 80 miles) per hour.

This recording was taken from the bedroom window of an old "Mas" (farmhouse) just outside Barbentane (Bouches-du-Rhône) with the mics pointing directly at a Plane tree (platane)at least 250 years old.

Strong "Mistral" Wind - Barbentane, France

Had a conversation with an old friend the other day. He’s done some tremendous things with his business and carved out a tremendously meaningful life for himself. Said something that I wanted to share with you. Because it speaks to the best way to influence other people. Leadership by example.

“Robin,” he said. “The greatest sermon in life is the one you see.” To me, he meant make your life your message. Live your truth. Walk your values. Behave your philosophy.

So easy to talk a great game. Far harder to live it. But the best do. Elegantly. Consistently. Passionately.

I have the members of my private coaching group IconX [as well as the billionaires, tech superstars, and titans of industry I’ve served as the private advisor to] go through this revolutionary process so that they clean out the constraints, strip away the distractions and get super calibrated on implementing the few projects that will cause them to be legendary. This system takes only an hour. Yet it creates pure transformation.

One client shared with me that this single deconstruction that he experienced was responsible for him achieving financial and human wins he'd never thought he could achieve. And executing on goals he never has been able to get done. He told me,"It worked like magic."

This exercise is done around my 8 Forms of Wealth model that so many CEOs from around the world use each week as they plan their schedules. Another key to the transformational power of this exercise is that you absolutely need to raise your standards x25 as you architect your best professional and private life over the next 100 years. This challenge moves you to lift your courage and consider achievements you'd never thought about before.

Key: as you know from the latest positive psychology, your personal story about what's possible becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. You'll never perform higher than your self-identity. And what you believe to be possible.
