The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

It doesn't matter if you fail horribly.

The Knowledge Project

You do that 10 times and fail horribly 10 times, eventually you're going to get comfortable in those moments and then your skills will be able to match and break through.

The Knowledge Project

But people don't break through because they come to those moments and they shy away.

The Knowledge Project

I mean, this is, we've all done it.

The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

I've done it way too many times.

The Knowledge Project

Well, it's the same thing everyone struggles with.

The Knowledge Project

When I come to those moments, I'm like, oh, I'm so uncomfortable right now.

And then sometimes I've forgotten.

It's like I had this conversation with my spiritual mentor, Nick Osborne, and he said what God does is he gives you a jacket that's two sizes too big.

And that's what a loving parent does when you're four or five years old.

You don't buy them a jacket that's perfectly fit because they're going to grow out of it too fast.

The Knowledge Project

So the parent's going to buy them a jacket that's a little bit too big, right, so they can grow into it.

The Knowledge Project

And he said that's what God does.

The Knowledge Project

He gives you this jacket that's too big.

The Knowledge Project

And then you put it on, you're like, whoa, this is not good.

The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

This is not right.

The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

This doesn't feel right.

The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

What's happened?

The Knowledge Project
7 Principles of Inner Excellence to Stay Calm Under Fire | Jim Murphy

And that's what I felt so much.

The Knowledge Project

It's like, okay, this is not okay.
