Ok friends, this may twist your mind a bit - but a foundation I’ve come to find so VERY VERY TRUE. The structure of new-age fields of thought and self-development ironically can inhibit people to NOT change. If you truly believe something, you do not reaffirm it to yourself. You do not rise in the morning to spend 15-minutes chanting affirmations that the universe will create what you want if you believe you’ll get it. The unconscious messages sent through willpower and positive-thinking say you will not change or find it difficult to change because you need the techniques to manipulate your unconscious mind.As a self-development junky, super learner, and entrepreneur that lives to create products and experiences, I do not even want to think about how much money, time, and effort I’ve spent on books, seminars, masterminds - you name it - all the bright and shiny objects that I thought I needed to activate my “genius” to bring success to life. News for ya - Burnout isn’t beautiful. And for those that listen to this podcast, I bet the same is true for you - you feel you have a calling, are meant for more, and long for just having joy and purpose -, and you may obtain success for a while, to find you’re right back into the same emotional frustration and place of where you began, or just a few tiny steps forward. I’m here to say… it’s not personal, its structural.The more you look outside yourself, lack clarity on what you want in your life, the more you procrastinate, feel frustrated, and will struggle.In fact, our guest today says it best:We fail to change because we fight habits with will power, positive thinking, affirmations, and other similar self-help techniques. I have to say - Robert’s insights planted a sapling seed that has taken root and grown an entire new blossoming WAY OF how I empower my current Life in Bloom coaching program. About Robert Fritz:Robert began his career playing music and studying and teaching musical composition. He began to see that the structural principles that are so much a part of the composer's art have profound importance when applied to human development. It is from these insights that his structural approach was born.At the same time, Robert began to see that the very same process that creators use to create could be applied to the way people live their daily lives, that it is possible to approach the life building process in exactly the same way.Aside from being an accomplished composer, filmmaker, and writer, he is also an organizational consultant for some of the largest companies in the world. His first of many top-selling books, The Path of Least Resistance, became an international bestseller - in which we’ll start our conversation today. On Today’s Episode You’ll Awaken to:How the #1 growth challenge I hear from people is "If I knew what to do next, I'd do it."The person creating ( meaning identity) and a new way to approach our desiresWhat is Structural DynamicsHow the patterns of structure (oscillating and advancement) affect our life story. How we are an organism of nature which is a mirror of evolving with the PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE. How the underlying “I’m not good enough” mankind default is an automatic default of seeing a need for any “self-development/beauty” enhancer as a necessity. The importance of creating what you truly love to achieve your goalsHow can we be in the problem resolving structure and creative - and still be productive?The goal is to create within the highest form of expression our highest self. It doesn’t matter what you think about yourself - your thoughts don’t matter. Self Love fixation becomes the issue (not self-care).The values that we live by are a long term, gratifying process, but most humans choose off of short term gratification. The difference between making fundamental, primary, and secondary choices in your life, and how making each kind of choice will affect your ability to create what you wantMore tactics, self-development courses trying to “fix you,” anti-aging beauty products and systems do NOT guarantee anything but …. conceal, deceive and distract you.What motivates a creator? The desire for the creation to exist. That is enough. How People confuse creation with identity. “You are not what you create.” Even though your creations come from and through you, your creations are separate from you.
