Who Are YOU??? 3 Realizations to Navigate Your Road to Your Calling

 




Who Are YOU??? 3 Realizations to Navigate Your Road to Your Calling


Who are YOU???

Why are YOU here???

What is it YOU are meant to do???

Have you ever asked yourself these questions?

Leaders like you and I often ask ourselves these deeper questions on our Journeys of self-exploration.

Throughout my personal Journey, I have identified

3 Realizations to Navigate Your Road to Your Calling

Which I will share with you today.

Are you ready to get started???

Of course you are. I’ll see you in there!!!

1. You have a UNIQUE PURPOSE

What you are being called to do,

Is unlike anybody else.

These days, society seems to always tell us:

  • Who we need to be
  • What we need to do
  • How we need to act

The problem with this is …

Nobody else truly knows who you are, and

Nobody else has done (and will do) what you are meant to do.

I had this realization when I watched the 2008 NCAA college basketball tournament (also known as March Madness).

There was this small school called Davidson, and they had a small player named Stephen Curry.

Stephen Curry inspired me as he played with so much freedom and enjoyment. This was a player who played unlike anybody else.

And from that point on, I committed myself to realize what my unique purpose was …

And I would use it to inspire all who saw me.

2. You have a UNIQUE PATH

Not only is your purpose unique, but

Your Journey to pursue that purpose is unlike anybody else’s as well.

Society seems to tell us there is some magical blueprint or formula to become who we desire to be, but …

Nobody else has ever (or will ever) walk our Path.

I remember after watching Stephen Curry play, I decided I would become a professional basketball player to inspire others like he inspired me.

However, when I embarked on this journey to play basketball,

I soon encountered some mysterious, undiagnosable, and debilitating medical conditions that I have dealt with for the past half of my life.

With these medical issues, I saw my dreams of playing basketball washed away, but …

I realized my Journey to be who I came here to be …

Was unlike anybody else’s Path.

3. Whatever you are called to do, YOU CAN HANDLE IT

I recall one night, while navigating through a lot of turmoil:

  • Watching my dreams washed away
  • Watching my health become washed away
  • Trying to remain resilient through various tribulations such as the pandemic

I was completely fed up with my life situations …

And I went out to an empty field underneath the stars and prayed:

GOD, YOU have taken so much from me:

  • You have taken my dream from me
  • You have taken my health from me
  • I have faced so many challenges

WHAT MORE CAN YOU TAKE AWAY FROM ME???

And, once I said that,

It felt as if every cell of my Being was melting away from me …

Until there was nothing else but a ball of fire,

A bundle of energy …

Deep inside me.

And I realized, this ball of fire …

WAS INVINCIBLE …

WAS UNSTOPPABLE

And would carry me to my Purpose.


You have a UNIQUE PURPOSE …

You have a UNIQUE PATH to pursue your Purpose ...

Whatever it is you are CALLED TO DO,

You can HANDLE IT!!!

WHO and WHAT YOU ARE deep down

Is indestructible!!!


I wish you well on your journey to navigating your road to your Calling, and I look forward to seeing you next week.


Inspiring YOU every step of your way,

Want to Increase Your Productivity??? How to increase productivity in 4 simple steps



Listen to Podcast Here

 

Want to Increase Your Productivity??? How to increase productivity in 4 simple steps

Do you want to flat out get work done???

So you can:

  • Make more money
  • Have a greater impact
  • Spend more free time participating in other activities you enjoy

However, you may be feeling you are not being as productive as you can be …

And this can leave you feeling frustrated …

Because you feel like you are wasting time and energy …

Being busy doing things,

But accomplishing very little.

If any of these scenarios sounds like you, don’t worry,

Because I was the same way.

I spent so much time feeling busy, but not feeling like I was accomplishing anything.

And this led to much frustration.

Until … one day …

I discovered a secret to dramatically increase your productivity.

And today, I will provide you with …

4 Steps to Dramatically Increase Your Productivity

Including:

  • How to operate under the laws your biology was designed for
  • How to harmonize with these laws within your work day
  • How to implement easy action steps for long-term success

Sound good???

Good, now let’s get into it …

Secret to Dramatically Increase Your Productivity

As human beings, we need to realize …

We are a part of Nature.

Everything that is living is a part of Nature.

And since we are a part of Nature,

We operate under the same laws Nature does.

  • We have circadian rhythms
  • We need to eat, sleep, drink, and so on
  • Our energy fluctuates as the weather changes

One of the most prominent laws in Nature is …

Nature has 4 seasons.

And when we align our workdays with these 4 seasons,

We will function more efficiently because we are working as we were created to be,

And we will dramatically increase our productivity.

So how do we align our workdays with the 4 seasons???

Glad you asked 🙂 !

That’s what we will dive into next …

Spring

This is the season of our workday when …

We plant the seeds for what we are going to accomplish for the rest of the day.

During this time,

Journal and/or plan for the day ahead, deciding what you want to accomplish and when you are going to do it.

Or you can knock out some easy tasks that don’t take a lot of:

  • Time
  • Effort
  • Energy

Journaling, planning, and accomplishing easy tasks will get your gears churning and generate momentum for the rest of the day.

Summer

This is the season of our workday when we …

Get Stuff Done!!!

Summertime is GO TIME!!!

During this time,

Get your main work done for the day.

And make sure you …

Accomplish your most important tasks first …

When you have the most energy.

Having a clear focus and lots of energy to execute will enable you to accomplish much more than you probably realize.

Fall

This is the season of our workday when …

We reap the harvest and the rewards of what we did for the day.

Use this time for reflection on:

  • What you did well and
  • What you would like to do or improve upon the next day

This will begin to wind you down so you can have clarity on the most effective path forward.

Winter

This is the season of our workday when …

We rest and hibernate.

Completely turn off your mind and remove yourself from your work.

This is the season of our workday …

That is most forgotten by our society …

Because we are not actively getting tasks done.

However, it is necessary if you want long-term productivity and success.

Giving yourself this downtime will allow your mind to recharge and rejuvenate,

So you can have more energy for the upcoming days.

Recap

As humans, we are a part of Nature.

As a part of Nature, we operate under the same laws as Nature, including …

Abiding by 4 seasons.

When we incorporate these 4 seasons into our lives and workday,

We function as we were created and can dramatically increase our productivity.

Cut your workday into 4 seasons:

Spring

Plant your seeds for the day.

Journal, plan, and/or accomplish easy tasks to generate momentum.

Summer

Get your main work done.

Start with the most important tasks when you have the most energy.

Fall

Reap the rewards of the day.

Reflect on what you did and how you may want to alter your course.

Winter

Rest and hibernate.

Completely remove yourself from your work so your mind can recharge and rejuvenate for upcoming days.

As you continue to follow this pattern,

You will be able to get far more accomplished than you realize, and:

  • Make more money
  • Have a greater impact
  • Experience fulfillment and explore other activities you enjoy

I wish you well on your journey to increasing your productivity, and I look forward to seeing you next week.

Ended Your New Year’s Resolution??? 3 Reasons resolutions FAIL and how to set resolutions that work

 



Ended Your New Year’s Resolution??? 3 Reasons most resolutions FAIL and how to set resolutions that work

Have you ever created a New Year’s resolution?

Where you started off the year eager to experience a transformation …

But after a few weeks or months,

You stopped following through???

And, if you stopped following through, did this leave you feeling:

  • Frustrated
  • Dejected and
  • Perhaps you even

Questioned your will power?

If so, don’t worry because …

It’s not your fault.

You see …

Society teaches us to set resolutions in a way that isn’t very powerful.

In fact, we are taught to set resolutions in a way …

That will probably FAIL!!!

Throughout my life, I have set many resolutions.

Sometimes they failed, and I was left feeling frustrated.

But …

Sometimes they succeeded.

And throughout this process,

I have discovered a …

Blueprint for creating resolutions that actually work.

So today, I am going to provide you with:

3 Reasons Most Resolutions Fail

And …

How to Set Resolutions That Actually Work For You

About half of the population sets resolutions, but

Less than 10% of people actually follow through on those resolutions!

And it’s not our fault because the way we are taught to set resolutions is not very powerful.

Today, let’s address

3 Reasons Most Resolutions Fail

Most resolutions fail because they are generated by external values rather than internal values.

We are taught to create resolutions that …

Society tells us we should have:

  • We should lose weight
  • We should enhance our body image
  • We should make a lot of money

The problem with setting resolutions with these external values …

Is because there is a deeper part of us that doesn’t really care whether or not we actually achieve them.

And when this deeper part is not fully on board,

We are drastically less likely to follow through.

Most resolutions fail because they are created with our thoughts rather than our emotions.

We think about what we want to achieve and perhaps we’ll even write it down,

But the amount of energy produced by our thoughts and brains

Is only a fraction of the amount of energy produced by our emotions and hearts!

When we create our resolutions with our emotions, we produce much more energy to follow through.

Most resolutions fail because they are focused on ourselves rather than others and the world as a whole.

We focus on what we want to achieve.

  • I want to lose weight
  • I want to enhance my image
  • I want to make more money

And although it’s great to experience a transformation yourself,

When you can see how that transformation extends to uplift the people and world around you,

So much more energy and conviction is created for you to follow through.

To Recap

There are 3 primary reasons most resolutions fail:

  • They are generated by external values rather than internal values
  • They are created with our thoughts and brains rather than our emotions and heart
  • They are focused on ourselves rather than on how they can impact the world around us

Now, onto …

The Blueprint to Create Resolutions that Actually Work For You

Set aside 5-10 minutes to be silent and still.

Remove yourself from the external world and …

Tune into that deeper part of you and …

Let IT show you what it wants to pursue.

Then, completely immerse yourself in the experience and emotions of having transformed into this Higher Being.

  • What do you hear?
  • What do you see?
  • How do you feel?

And when you are completely immersed in this experience,

See how it extends into the lives of others …

And eventually into the world as a whole.

Finally, when you come out of this experience,

Commit to one action that you will take …

To bring this Higher Being into your Reality.

Then, go out and …

Perform that action from the same emotional state as you felt during this inward experience.

And when you repeat this process consistently:

  • Letting your deeper self show you what it wants to pursue
  • Immersing yourself in the emotions of having accomplished it
  • Extending your impact into the lives of others and the world around you
  • And taking action from the same emotional state to bring it into your reality

You follow through on your resolutions and become the Higher Being you are meant to be.

I wish you well on your journey to creating resolutions that actually work for you, and I look forward to seeing you next week.

Inspiring YOU every step of your way,

Be the Hero You've Always Wanted: How to create your Life Story




Be the Hero You've Always Wanted:

How to create your Life Story

Do you wish you had the freedom to be anyone you want to be?

However, perhaps you feel powerless and like you are at the mercy of your external circumstances?

And when you feel powerless, perhaps it makes what you do feel …

Meaningless???

Don’t Worry 🙂 …

Today we are going to help you to create the most meaningful story you’ll ever experience, which is …

Your Life Story

A few months ago, I had an opportunity to take a field trip with a group of high school leaders to a Native American museum.

At this museum, there were many cool sights and artifacts, but my favorite part of the trip was …

Learning about the Native American creation story.

Upon hearing the Native American myth of how life came to be,

It reminded me of the importance of stories and …

How YOU can create any story you desire.

Today, we are going to help you create a story you DO desire by …

Creating Your Life Story!!!

All great stories have a similar plot structure:

  • There is a Main Character
  • The Main Character encounters a Problem
  • The Main Character sets out on a Journey to find a Solution to the Problem
  • On the Journey, the Main Character experiences many twists and turns, ebbs and flows
  • Eventually, the Main Character will come into contact with a Team to help him navigate his Journey
  • This Team helps the Main Character transcend his previous perceived limitations and experience a Transformation
  • Finally, with this Transformation, the Main Character will leave a Legacy, an impact, on the world for years to come (and live happily ever after 🙂)

Here’s what I want YOU to do:

Sometime this week, carve out 1 HOUR of your day and create YOUR Life Story.

Plug in all the elements and components:

  • You are the Main Character
  • What Problems are you experiencing?
    • Are they financial?
    • Are they in relationships?
    • Are they stemming from a lack of clarity of your Purpose in this Life?
  • What will your Journey look like to find the Solutions to your Problems?
    • How will you navigate your Path?
    • Where are the twists and turns?
    • Where are the ebbs and flows?
  • What Team will you meet along the way that will help you navigate your Journey?
    • Friends
    • Mentors
    • Guides
  • How will you know when you have transcended your previous perceived limitations and experience a Transformation?
  • And, finally, what Legacy will you leave behind that will impact the world for years to come (and live happily ever after 🙂)?
    • Integrity?
    • Perseverance?
    • Love, Passion, and Inspiration?

I highly encourage you to carve out an hour to do this exercise.

This Story will be the most powerful one you will experience.

And once you finish writing your Life Story,

Take Action On It

When you take action on your Story, you bring it into your reality.

And over time, your external world will mimic the Story you created.

One Final Word

Continue to refine and revise your story over time.

Because you will expand and evolve as an individual.

And your Life Story should too.

After refining, revising, and bringing your Life Story into reality for a period of time,

There will come a time when …

I CHALLENGE YOU …

To take the pen off your paper,

And allow Life to write a more compelling story for you.

I wish you well on your journey to creating and living your Life Story, and I look forward to seeing you next week.

Inspiring YOU every step of your way,

Kyle
