5 Why are We not Breaking Through

6 Why are We not Breaking Through

7 What is Resistance? An opposing or retarding force. Resistance is the most toxic force on the planet. It is the root of more unhappiness than poverty, disease, and erectile dysfunction. To yield to resistance deforms our spirit. It stuns us and makes us less than we are born to be. If you believe in God and I do you must declare resistance evil, for it prevents us from achieving the life God intended when he endowed each of us with our own unique genius. Steven Pressfield

8 Story of Personal Resistance(s)

9 What Keeps You from Pulling Your String Back?

10 The ENEMY - Forms in which Resistance Comes To Destroy Outcomes and Lower Purpose 1 Victim Mentality Everyone else come to my rescue, instead of participating in your own. Illness to Illness. It s something or someone else. 2 Being Critical Judging others instead of facing your own challenges. Easier to Point the Finger. 3 Rationalization Justifying why not to do something you should. Good reasons. 4 Exaggerating Exaggeration of life and who you are, where you are, instead of doing the work. Locker room. 5 Drama Creation Feeding negative energy, everything is big ordeal. Creates more resistance.

11 The ENEMY - Resistance Comes To Destroy Outcomes and Lower Purpose 6 Procrastination We do not make the decision to do the work, putting off your destiny in the process. 7 Health and Healing You can t do anything your I m to sick. 8 Poverty Mentality There is not enough patients, no one can afford me, can t afford staff, etc 9 Addiction/Self Medicate We consume - TV, Pop Culture, Sex, Masturbation, Stuff, Drugs, Social Media, Alcohol (not Self Responsibility, Delayed Gratification)

14 Your Purpose is Not Random 40M 10M

15 Destiny and Inner Genius "Genius is not property of the few, but buried in all. B. J. Palmer It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves. William Shakespeare Everything has already been decided. It was known long ago what each person would be. So there s no use arguing with God about your destiny. King Solomon - Ecclesiastes 6-10

16 Google Agrees!

17 First Flight- Wright Brothers vs. Samuel Pierpont Langly Samuel Pierpont Langly -Harvard Graduate -Connected and Could Afford Best Minds -War department - 50K Million -Smithsonian - 20K 533,000 Orville and Wilber Wright - Self Funded from Bicycle Shop - Neither College Degree - Could Not Afford or Knew the Best Minds

18 Wright Brothers Won the Race and Hit the Mark On December 17, 1903, the Wright brothers beat Langley and became the first to achieve powered, sustained, controlled human flight.

19 How Was That Even Possible? Orville and Wilber were driven by a purpose. They believed that if they could solve the problem of piloted flight, they could change the world. When they shared that belief, people who believed what they believed joined them. And with that the intrinsic motivator of purpose these people worked for them with their blood, sweat and tears. They tell stories of how every time the Wright brothers went out, they would have to bring 5 sets of parts because that s how many times they would crash before supper. THEY DID THE WORK!

20 HIERACHARY - RESISTANCE BURRIED THEM Langley s team? They worked for the paycheck, and Langley himself wanted to be rich and famous. Langley and his team were extrinsically motivated by the imagined rewards of their success. How do we know that Langley had no interest in changing the world? The day the Wright brothers took flight, Langley quit. He could have taken their discovery and used the resources he had to improve it. But he wasn t first so he quit.

21 RESISTANCE KILLS HUGE EXAMPLE Paintings by Adolf Hitler From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In his autobiography Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler described how, in his youth, he wanted to become a professional artist, but his aspirations were ruined because he failed the entrance exam of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Hitler was rejected twice by the institute, once in 1907 and again in Hitler s style was very calculated when representing architecture in his paintings. Instead of progressing in his artistic influence, his works copied the artists of the nineteenth century and many of the masters preceding him.

22 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BREAK THROUGH RESITANCE

23 Breaking Through Resistance Serves You and Others Roger Banister

24 Purpose Resistance More Resistance Needs More Purpose - Overcome Resistance with Purpose and You will Experience Gods World Changing Plan for Your Life Warren Phillips HCF Seminars - When You are Out to Transform the World Expect More Resistance.

25 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Find your Fortress, Your domain, Your Territory You can not fight resistance with emotion you beat it with purpose.

26 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Find your contradictions and clear them. Resistance can tell you what they are.

27 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Increase your Humility decrease Hierarchical words, thoughts and actions. -Words like I not we. -I have to do it. -Measuring yourself -Management style. Practitioners watch your words as they dictate actions

28 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Increase your expertise become the PRO of your calling. How Does a Pro Respond? Amateur = No Love

29 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Find Your Tribe(s) Resistance Says?

30 How do You Increase Your Purpose and Calling Your Promise (Destiny) Will Fund Your Purpose or We have a choice!!!
