Exercise: Write your own quote that best fits your life for each of the Honor-ments.
#1: To be authentic, be present to the space in which your thoughts, feelings and circumstances rise and fall from in your life. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Kabir: In Indian tradition the Universe reveals itself in two fundamental properties: as Motion and as that in which motion takes place, namely Space. This Space is called akasa and is that through which things step into visible appearance, i.e., through which they possess extension or corporeality. Akasa is derived from the root kas, 'to radiate, to shine', and has therefore the meaning of 'ether' which is conceived as the medium of movement. The principle of movement, however, is Prana the breath of life, the all-powerful, all-pervading rhythm of the universe.
Sage Hope: “Being present as the witness makes you realize that you are not your thoughts or feelings, you are the beholder of space in which they are happening.”
Dr. Phil: “You Create Your Own Experience. Acknowledge and Accept Responsibility for your life”
Stephen Covey: “Taking initiative does not mean being pushy, obnoxious, or aggressive. It does mean recognizing our responsibility to being a partner in helping make things happen.”
Les Brown: “Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you and the nature of life that will get you where you want to go, no one else.”
Denis Waitley: “There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, and accept the responsibility for changing them.”
Tony Parsons: “Only here, in present awareness of simply “what is as it is” can there be freedom from self-image.”
#2: When action is born so is motivation. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Just get started, genius blossoms in participation.”
Tony Robbins: “Taking Massive Action Unlocks the Giant Within”
Thomas Jefferson: "I find that the harder I work the more luck I seem to have."
Dr. Phil McGraw: “Life Rewards Action. Make Careful Decisions”
Dale Carnegie: “The man who goes farthest is generally the one who is willing to do and dare. The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore.”
Jack Canfield: “Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.”
#3: Have the desire for knowledge and it will find you. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “True knowledge lies within and is found in the Presence of stillness.”
Napoleon Hill: “Desire is the starting point of all achievement.”
Plato: “One trait in the philosopher's character we can assume is his love of the knowledge that reveals eternal reality, the realm unaffected by change and decay.”
Muhammad Ali: “Champions aren't made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them—a desire, a dream, a vision.”
Mario Andretti: “Desire is the key to motivation, but it's the determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal -- a commitment to excellence -- that will enable you to attain the success you seek.”
Earl Nightingale: “The key that unlocks energy is 'Desire.' It's also the key to a long and interesting life. If we expect to create any drive, any real force within ourselves, we have to get excited.”
#4: Have ideals, insights and goals will follow. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Deep within a dream is idealized and an insight is born. Soon goals follow, content follows context, form follows function, each moment is a function of your intent, prepare yourself well by staying awake to your intention.”
Tony Robbins: “Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.”
Aristotle: “First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective. Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials, and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.”
Maxwell Maltz: “People who say that life is not worthwhile are really saying that they themselves have no personal goals which are worthwhile. Get yourself a goal worth working for. Better still, get yourself a project. Always have something ahead of you to ''look forward to'' -- to work for and hope for.”
Plato: “We are like people looking for something they have in their hands all the time; we're looking in all directions except at the thing we want, which is probably why we haven't found it.”
Brian Tracy: “Every single life only becomes great when the individual sets upon a goal or goals which they really believe in, which they can really commit themselves to, which they can put their whole heart and soul into.”
Zig Ziglar: “A goal properly set is halfway reached.”
#5: Creating a plan is like a sail, a rudder and a trim tab for a sailboat. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Without a plan no matter how hard the wind blows there is drifting, no matter how good at communicating, interpretation gets lost.”
Thomas Jefferson: “If You Fail to Plan, You Plan to Fail.”
Napoleon Hill: “When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.”
Mark Victor Hansen: “The majority of people meet with failure because they lack the persistence to create new plans to take the place of failed plans.”
David Hume: “And though the philosopher may live remote from business, the genius of philosophy, if carefully cultivated by several, must gradually diffuse itself throughout the whole society, and bestow a similar correctness on every art and calling.”
#6: Pay the price of commitment and reap the rewards of personal satisfaction. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Your attention and commitment allows the law of attraction and synchronicity to work in the favor most attractive to you.”
Vince Lombardi: “The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.
Orison Swett Marden: “Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours.”
George Eliot: “It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
Francois de la Rochefoucauld: “We promise according to our hopes and perform according to our fears.”
#7: Look forward with persistence. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Persistence is easiest when you follow the “BE-Do Have” model: First be what you want mentally, and then do what is necessary to achieve it and then you will have what you want. That’s when you can say, persistence pays off.”
Calvin Coolidge: “Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”.
Orison Swett Marden: “There is genius in persistence. It conquers all opposers. It gives confidence. It annihilates obstacles. Everybody believes in a determined man. People know that when he undertakes a thing, the battle is half won, for his rule is to accomplish whatever he sets out to do.”
Dale Carnegie: “Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”
#8: First, believe in yourself and then everybody else will. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Becoming aware of the “Who” it is that is alive inside, the watcher that is aware of the mind of duality, creates a belief in yourself that shows up as an inner alert stillness without an agenda, which is unmistakeable by others.”
Denis Waitley: “If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad.”
Henry Ford: "Whether you think that you can, or that you can't, you are usually right."
Frances Lappe: “I've grown certain that the root of all fear is that we've been forced to deny who we are. “
Anthony Robbins: “If you develop the absolute sense of certainty that powerful beliefs provide, then you can get yourself to accomplish virtually anything.”
Maxwell Maltz: Realizing that our actions, feelings and behavior are the result of our own images and beliefs gives us the level that psychology has always needed for changing personality.
David J. Schwartz: “The size of your success is determined by the size of your belief. Think little goals and expect little achievements. Think big goals and win big success. Remember this, too! Big ideas and big plans are often easier—certainly no more difficult—than small ideas and small plans.”
# 9: Uncover success by learning from your mistakes ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “Success cannot be gained without beginning the journey, by starting the journey you will have the successes rather than the reasons why not.”
Winston Churchill: “All men make mistakes, but only wise men learn from their mistake”
Oprah Winfrey: “There are no failures, only lessons to be learned.”
John Sculley: “I have found that I always learn more from my mistakes than from my successes. If you aren't making some mistakes, you aren't taking enough chances.”
Terry Bragg: “The Law of Feedback states: there is no failure; there is only feedback. Successful people look at mistakes as outcomes or results, not as failure. Unsuccessful people look at mistakes as permanent and personal.”
# 10: Sit in meditation, imagine a clear picture of your dreams, visualize and feel providence move in your favor while you see yourself effortlessly and spaciously handle all that is reciprocated back to you from your efforts. ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Sage Hope: “If you sit in meditation often enough with your dreams the initial chatter and pictures will quiet down into a deeper stillness from which you can then see consciousness return to its source and feel the truth of your intent effecting all endings and beginnings.
Earl Nightingale: “Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you'll be doing when you've reached your goal.”
Gandhi: 'Truth alone is eternal, everything else is momentary. It is more correct to say that Truth is God, than to say that God is Truth.... All life comes from the one universal source; call it Presence, The Field, Space, Allah, God or Great Spirit.'
Stephen Covey: “Create a clear, mutual understanding of what needs to be accomplished, focusing on what, not how; results not methods. Spend time. Be patient. Visualize the desired result; start with the end in mind.”
Robert L Schwartz: "The entrepreneur is essentially a visualizer and an actualizer. They can visualize something, and when they visualize it they see exactly how to become the actualizer and make it happen."
Paul Meyer: “What ever you can vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe and enthusiastically act upon must inevitably come to pass.”
Albert Einstein: “Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.”
“These Ten Honor-ments” will help you understand the most important characteristic of worldview - one could almost say the essence of worldview – and that is the awareness of the unity and mutual interrelation of all things and events, the experience of all phenomena in the world as manifestations of a basic oneness. In this view, all things are seen as interdependent and inseparable parts of this cosmic whole; as different manifestations of the same ultimate reality in this interplay of consciousness called life.
“Discover your point of power with meditation. Awaken the observer, come present to this moment of now, and know yourself as being one with the space of life . This is the very energy essence of aliveness before it takes on form, and that is who you truly are.
WooHoo!!!
THE TRANSFORMATION TEAM
Half a Dozen Things to do Daily
1) Make a decision to commit to discovering your greatness. When one commits, then all providence moves in your favor. "I choose to commit, explore, and to know that I am an evolving, unlimited Being."
2) Meditate daily and listen to brainwave meditations. Set up a schedule and stick to it.
3) Read and complete each day of the 21 day program. Read 10 pages of a supporting eBook for that day.
4) Find time to be IN silence often, and at least weekly. (No TV, Internet, radio, telephone, or conversations of any kind) while observing a practice of non-judgment. Really try to have NO preferences or opinions and say cancel, cancel, cancel to any inner contrary conversations.
5) Daily review the work you've done in this course. Check your email, review your journal. Begin each day, after your meditation, by writing down your top 10 positive intentions again.
6) Spend time daily thinking, fantasizing, and seeing yourself having already accomplished these goals in this eternal moment of NOW.
