Have you ever met a person who knew everything already?
It's insane right?
If we drew a circle the size of a dime on a sheet of paper,
and labeled the inside of that circle as everything humanity knows...
and everything else outside of the circle as everything humanity DOESN'T know...
Well, it sort of puts things in perspective.
The amount of knowledge one person has may be represented by,
I don't know, the size of an atom?
So how do we stop fooling ourselves?
How do we overcome what we think we know and keep learning?
Read this letter to the end to find out.
It's actually quite simple.
Imagine you have a whiteboard, a classroom sized whiteboard.
If you document your brain on this whiteboard everyday, it will become full.
At that point it will become difficult to add more.
Sort of like how a cup can only hold so much liquid before it over flows.
What does get added after it is full simply goes in and out and doesn't stick.
Most people never empty their cup... Never fully erase their whiteboard...
As a result they get... STUCK.
Stuck in the same version of who they were two years ago, five, ten...15 years ago!
What a sad, sad life.
Learning and expanding is what keeps us alive.
We know this because of nature's law of entropy; everything decays.
Including you and your brain.
While some people begin to decay early in their 20's,
others don't decay until mid to late 80's when their body is simply
beginning to break down.
In order to face growth and prevent decay from happening too soon...
Simply empty your cup... or erase your whiteboard.
Take everything you believe, cherish and perceive...
AND WIPE IT CLEAN.
Start over. Add a new layer to your understanding of the world and yourself.
Does this sound painful?
It is.
You know what's more painful?
Believing in perceptions and opinions that create a beautiful glass box
around your potential, essentially cutting you off from what you are truly capable of.
Cutting you off from what is REAL.
Cutting you off from what begs to come out of you.
Cutting you off from the life and mastery you could so easily attain...
For some of you reading this, you may desire (Like I do) steps to take, real actions
that I can put in motion NOW.
So...
If you're like me in that regard, here go:
Step 1. Watch this video I posted about this topic.
Step 2. Buy yourself a whiteboard. Any whiteboard, any size, just buy one and hang it up in your bedroom.
Step 3. Document your beliefs and put them to the test.
Step 4. Erase everything you think you know.
Step 5. Repeat.
I'm not a big fan of information, we are surrounded by it these days, like a giant ocean.
The reality is most of it is Bull%&#@ because people love to believe
that their glass castle is real.
But it isn't.
I...
I don't know anything and I can't give you the answers because...
The ONLY thing that counts... is EXPERIENCE and physical PROOF of it...
I will promise you this;
DO THIS, and you will most certainly Face Epic Growth and Master Your Mind.
