‘So it’s actually REALLY simple!’
I love that one.
Just like
‘Why don’t we all know this, why isn’t this taught at schools?!’
I love how these profound, life-changing insights are possible and magical and powerful, and I love how I enjoy being involved in exploring that stuff, over and over again.
There are so many people I talk to who are lost and confused, who’ve tried everything out there and are totally convinced they’ll never have a life with freedom and joy.
Boy, if only they knew.
And they will.
That’s where the conversations come in.
That’s also why I know, from experience, they’ll be fine, better than fine even, almost always.
For me, it’s like playing for the winning team, the team that is ALWAYS victorious, which means I can get on the field without restrictions, no borders, and no holding back.
There’s no way I can lose, so it doesn’t really matter what I do.
Being backed up by a power of this magnitude makes my job incredibly cool.
Feeling this amount of trust crushes the tension and confusion of personal responsibility and opens up a whole world of sweet wisdom.
After years of coaching, I’ve probably heard all the objections that the mind is capable of inventing, all the critical notions, all the disbelief, and solid conceptions.
I love that too.
I love it when a client gets in position, with the intellect at full speed, and starts attacking me with logic and facts and truths and complicated questions.
‘Yeah, sure, but how about… and what if… and isn’t it so that….’
So much fun.
Of course, the goal is that everybody wins.
For me, it’s simple, because that’s already the case, and for the client this will merely be the effect of playing the game we engage in.
We just have to play it.
And we can’t lose.
Even if the rules of the game change every second.
Even if the client has been hiding behind a thick wall of intellectual bricks.
Eventually, that thing will start to crumble.
People will start mellowing out.
And they’ll know, when they know, that what we’ve been talking about and what I’ve been pointing out to them, has always been true.
I love that too.
So much.
