Eye Opener

   This week my numbers have taken a hit. I have excuses but they are just that, excuses. This is something I need to change, I can't let myself believe that my excuses are okay. Justifying my excuses only strengthens their hold on my ability to succeed. Time to "kicky smack" them to the curb and get back to my routine that was serving me so well.

Mar 28, 2019 ( Thur ) Beta Form......

   Wow was that an eye opener! Seeing some of the forms that others have created, OMG! This is my first year in the I Ho Chuan and I can tell you it has been an eye opener. In "Mastery", Stuart Emery talks of opening yourself to the Masters, to learn and embrace their Mastery, to not be jealous of what they can do verses what you can't. I was in awe at some of the forms presented that night, truly humbling. If this was the "beta" version, I can't wait to see the 1.0 version. Time to drain the old water in the sponge of my mind because I need to soak up a whole bunch of new reality. Thank you for allowing me this pleasure of being able to learn from such amazing individuals, it has shown me the path I need to take verses the one I thought was correct.

Numbers.....

Many more thoughts to discuss but I'll cut this off here.
