Warriors,
What event signified a distinct change in your life? What marked a passage from one point to another?
How do YOU change?
All Rites of Passage require a transcendence of life to death and then a rebirth. How did you die and then were reborn?
You might say that a rite of passage is the moment you transcend the lower self and begin to move toward a higher self. When the outward child (innocence) moves inward. One of the reasons seminars are so powerful and memorable is because they are a distinct moment of change. Traveling to another country as a child is another marker. Divorce, an actual death, recovery from addiction or trauma...
When you made a life change, what did you leave behind? What did you move towards? Having clarity of where you are in relation to your life is key for the experience to be integrated.
How were all of your big changes similar?
Since there are many transitions in your life, list them and come up with the similarities to the experience. Find your common ground of change. What experiences do you repeat over and over when your body goes through change?
Could you re-produce those experiences when you desire a different result? Of course you could. As long as you are conscious to what they are. Manufacturing change is a key component of all seminars and workshops.
You can study change!
Do you think that others might experience the same components of change? In fact they do. I have been fortunate enough to see thousands of people change. There are 4 parts to change...but go here and see for yourself:

Those FREE downloads there...they will change your life. Tom and I have worked our butts off on them. Get them free before we begin to sell them.
This past week I spent 5 days with teens watching them do the same thing we all do when we go through massive change. They handled in the same graceful/chaotic/generous/selfish/childlike/enlightened manner any adult does. Just like adults, they found a way to make their lives a little more into what they know they deserve in life.
What do you deserve in life and what Rite of Passage needs to take place before you embrace it?
Listen to the FREE downloads and take not of how people change. It will surprise you how easy it is to make the shift in any aspect of your life.
Much love,
Aaron
These are the Teens. They came from all over N. America. I am forever changed by the way they took the challenge and conquered it. NOTHING took them out or made them quit.
This is my team. (From the left) Cash Vo, Patty Ramey, Paul Guerra, Me, Tyler Conderino (behind me), My wife Christine Porta, and Jeff Hamilton. I am so fortunate to be surround by a team that is WAY smarter than i am. It's a great place to learn!

You Dont Know S**t
Dear friends,
You don't know s**t.
How does that sentence make you feel?
When you are accused of not knowing, do you strike back?
In your body, does your anger or resistance arise to justify what you do know? Who do you strive to prove to that you are smart, wise, or knowledgeable?
"No offense lady, but what you don't know could fill a warehouse." Bart Simpson
Our desire to quantify or qualify everything so that we can know it, therefore possess it in some form or fashion is overwhelming. When we see something that we do not understand our brain will create an understanding based on our past experiences that we can relate to it.
Does knowing make us strong? Is it knowledge or leverage that makes us powerful? Is it action or wisdom that makes us amazing?
What about the letting go of knowing? Without your interpretation, what does the thing become except more of itself? Isn't that the ultimate granting of freedom? Is there a strength here?
Today, practice letting go of judgment of everything... ANYTHING. Everything you see, be conscious of how you interpret or define it...as an experience, an event, right or wrong, good or bad...don't try to make it anything. Let it just be without definition.
Let go of what you think you know. Let the emptiness of not knowing remain empty... if only for today, and watch/feel what begins to come through the empty space.
Dunce caps on warriors, let your true humility shine and walk without understanding and judgment.
There is an old samurai maxim that says, "Knowing and Acting are one in the same." When you truly understand something, you will express your understanding through action.
To your lack of knowing,
Aaron
If you missed last nights phone call about Temptation, you can listen to it here: http://ping.fm/h2tYK
Maybe if we could let go of what we think is true and right, we would let go of the need to make others false and wrong?

The Real Enemy
Warriors,
Your truth of today is based on the actions and results of yesterday.
Have you ever climbed a peak only to discover that when you reach the top, it is one of the smaller peaks around you? Does that make your accomplishment feel insignificant?
Do you expect the first mountain you climb to be Everest?
It's only from the top that you can gain a new perspective of what potential surrounds you. From the bottom, your sight is limited. You can only see whats in front of you.
Once you face that thing that has held you at the bottom of your hill, once you have resisted the temptation to not stay put...once you have made the journey upwards and resisted again the temptation to turn around and go back to the bottom...
Then you can see what truly awaits you.
It's only when you achieve your perception of potential that you can then understand what REALLY awaits you. An even higher level of abundance and self development!
The real enemy? It's the temptation to quit or to think that this hill, this one you are on is the last one you will have to climb.
Tonight at 7pm (MST) Tom Terwilliger and I are hosting part 3 of the 4 part webinar series, "The Leap of Faith". Tonight is TEMPTATION.
This call is FREE and will change your perspective on abundance, and your own potential.

Face the Dragon
Every Warrior must, at some point in their adventure, face their Dragon.
The Dragon is called by many names:
-Sin (pick any of the 7 deadly ones)
-Ego
-Fear
-Weakness
-Addiction
-Temptation
-Evil
I have said many times that the whole legend of the Knight and the Princess and the Dragon is not about men rescuing women from a beast, its about our VIRTUE rescuing our INNOCENCE from our SHADOW.
The princess is only a symbol of innocence for a short time, after the encounter with shadow and virtue, the Princess becomes a Queen...POWER.
This struggle and ultimate transformation into power is a journey everyone of us must take. Some of us already have...and then there will be another...and another...and another....
When we face our Dragon, the worst habit we posses is to think we have EVER killed the dragon. Dragons are immortal, and at best, you can only transform your dragon into an ally. That's why anyone who calls themselves an addict years into their sobriety still has a good chance of maintaining clean time...because they know the dragon is still alive, waiting for the most inopportune time to strike.
You have to face your dragon. You must battle your dragon...and you must transform your Dragon.
Your wound must become your gift.
What's your dragon? What is your greatest weakness?
Can you resist the temptation to let your dragon run your life? How many people do you know let their dragons run their lives, make their decisions, keep them captive, destroy their livelihood,
Tomorrow night at 7 pm (MST) join Tom Terwilliger and I for part 3 of our Leap of Faith webinar series. We will be discussing TEMPTATION: The dragon's greatest weapon.
Here is the link to join us FREE!

Your Dragon is not dead. Only waiting to serve you...or destroy you.

Warrior I Quit
Warriors,
You need to quit.
Time to surrender.
Before you get up in arms and write me back the inevitable, "I'll never give up" letters, consider the idea that in Predicament, you could not have kept going forever...your body would have ultimately quit on you. It's inevitable.
So why resist the inevitable?
Paramahansa Yogananda wrote this in 1944, "Release for constructive purposes the power you already have, and more will come. Move on your path with unflinching determination, using all the attributes of success. Tune yourself with the creative power of Spirit. You will be in contact with the Infinite Intelligence that is able to guide you and solve all of your problems."
Another way to say it is, "Let go and let God."
Another way to say it is, "Get out of your own way."
Another way to say it is, if you spend all the space in your brain trying to finish, fix, and finalize the situation, where is there space within you for Grace to come through and show you what needs to be done?
The moment I quit trying to be the sole proprietor of the vision that guides my life, was the moment the TEAM showed up that can truly see this company, this passion to it's full potential. The moment I got out of my purpose's WAY, the WAY became clear.
Control is an illusion anyway.
So your meditation for today is to consider where your strength and drive is actually slowing the progress of your vision down, and how to surrender that to the Great-Goddess-Life-Force-Energy that is the Universal-Father-of-All-creation-Void-Nous-Intelligence....
You get the idea.
I was told a long time ago that when a Warrior surrenders...It means the "battle" is over. Let yourself become swept up in the current of your mission.
You cannot force a river to flow.
With love,
Aaron
Wave the white flag and surrender to your highest power...whatever that may be for you.
