Mindfully listening to brilliant minds: why it matters!

in #mindset5 years ago

Have you ever felt very fortunate that you had the opportunity to listen to some god-given mentor, accidentally or somehow in an unintended timing or manner, he or she perhaps was the perfect messenger in the very right moment?

You have! In fact, most of us have had that moment.

Now, guess what?! We really value that moment only later on in life, when the powerful insights of our mentor(s) speak words as they speak in action manifested in reality by the real-life ramifications of these insights, ideas, and influential words.

Indeed, a friend of mine once told me that his per-training chit chat with his Karate master was worth 80% of everything he learned, whereas the resting, including drills and training, was only worth the rest 20%.

So, I hope you all take the time everyday to direct your attention, and hopefully your ears, to the rare and invaluable mentors you may be fortunate to meet.
