16 Jul 2019
Show Notes: Background and what spurted Dr. Hendrick's interest in psychology and personal development The Big Leap, which is about 2 things: How to overcome the Upper Limit problem: our tendency to sabotage ourselves when we get to a certain point How to discover your own personal genius Why we need to learn how to handle upper limit problems The ways an ULP can show up - arguments, accidents, illness, worry thoughts The 7 step process of transforming a worry into something positive in The Big Leap Interrupt the negative thought pattern Influence compared to control The Joy of Genius We're not really in control of our thoughts. Most of us are trying to control our thoughts ineffectively, when what we need to do is let go and implant a better quality thought. How Gay manifested a perfect relationship with his "Absolute Yesses" and said to the Universe "he'll never settle for less" Think of a thought like a balloon attached to a string and the sting is attached to some emotion. You notice it and get underneath that and feel it in your body. Rather than changing it from the level of the mind, go down the string to what it's attached to. Most are attached to anger, sadness, fear. Permission to feel the emotion. How to embody and feel your emotions. Integrity with ourselves and being able to express them "Fear is excitement without the breath" - Fritz Perls Peace of mind can only be attained through total participation. wholebody/wholehearted acceptance of it Dr. Hendrick's moment of awakening when he was 24 that led him to "do whatever it takes to feel [bliss] all the time" How Gay met Ramdas and whathe told Gay : "don't worry something will come to you" How can I get ____ ? And instead of answering it, celebrate the question How can I express my true genius in such a way that it brings rewards to me and everyone around me? What is it I most love to do? What do I do that when I'm doing it I lose track of time? Own time rather than be the victim of time. "Life is what's going on while you're making other plans." Journey from head to heart Wonder! Breath. Move. Love Gay's USM and morning routine The organic process of life Doing more of what you most love to do. In your 20s your job is to experiment, in your 30s your job is to really find what you love to do, your 40s is about building your life, 50s and 60s are about coming into full integrity Gay's gift to open up to your true genius. You're there when you have a full body sensation of serene delight.
