Danger – Risk
The Number One Complaint About Becoming a Warrior? – Fear management. The only way to manage fear? Become a Warrior.
Warriors Train – Warriors accept, identify and study the challenges. They learn to make sophisticated riak assessments and pick their battles cleverly. To do that,warriors need a Purpose.
Warriors Test – their and mental physical abilities constantly against life’s games & mazes
Warriors Transform – The physical pleasure of meeting the moment cannot be overstated. Soon the training itself becomes a rush of joy. You are making love to the universe and the universe loves you back
What About Defeat? – There are no defeats, there are only lessons. Everything is practice for The Greater Contest.
Won’t You Ultimately Lose? Truly, we all die, some sooner, some less dignified. This is where your purpose upholds you. Study your models. What allowed Nelson Mandela to be “captain of his soul” after more than 20 years in brutal captivity? Are we just bodies? Or are we also souls? Are our souls so easily defeated? Can we also train, test and transform our souls?
Remember – a caterpillar’s “defeat” is a butterfly.
