In martial arts, the more tension you hold, the less effective you become.
Tension equals locked energy. Locked energy is weak, slow, immovable.
Hold your arms out in front of you and make a fist. Ask someone to push your arms towards the floor by applying downward pressure on your wrists. Resist that force and see how you do.
Now try it again. Except this time, open your hands so your fingers extend away from you and your thumbs are straight up in the air. Now have someone push your arms down.
What you’ll find is that you are FAR stronger in the second position with the hands open.
In the first position, your energy is locked by your fists. It is not moving.
In the second position, your energy is flowing through your arms and out your finger tips.
Building a business with the energy of your body and mind in the first position is how you become miserable. This is what the Matrix trains us to do.
Think about your biggest problem in business right now. Are you allowing it to create tension in your body? Or are you “opening” to the lessons it might be here to teach so that your energy can “relax” and greet a welcomed visitor? This is how you focus your true power on the “problem.”
How can you do this?
Stay connected to your breath. Your power moves through your breath. The more conscious you become of your breath, the easier it is to control your energy.
Business books don’t talk about this because publishers are afraid the books won’t sell. The Matrix tells the sheep the invisible world doesn’t exist. Discovery of the invisible would ruin the whole slave game. So we have to tip toe around these life changing topics because of money…which is a cowardly and spineless thing to do.
But that’s the best humans have got at the moment, so we deal with it.
You don’t need to manipulate reality to change your level of success in business, you have to manipulate YOURSELF. That will change everything else.
