KNOCKING DOWN THE MIND’S WALLS

Ah, my once a week reminder from my coaching mentor Dr. Randin Brons.

In reading the thoughts in the “Idea Engineer” this week, I was reminded at how closed my mind has and can get. Every day, to grow, I must knock down the walls, and the ability to consciously do this is a learned skill. I need to be prodded to open up my mind to new ideas!

“Open to the new

"All the people we call 'geniuses' are men and women who somehow escaped having to put that curious, wondering child in themselves to sleep." -- Barbara Sher

How willing are you to learn something new? How open are you to new perspectives?

Only when we're open can we really hear what's being said or really see what's happening or really experience the moment.

Openness demands that we be willing to move to places we've never been before. It asks us to continually challenge the foundations of our belief systems so we can test out new ideas. And to do that, we need to accept insecurity.

"The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." -- Alvin Toffler “

Today I have the ability to recognize my own insecurities without fear. As Toffler says, to live today I must learn, unlearn and relearn. A good reminder for this journeyer!
