Everyday Enlightenment (DAN MILLMAN)

 On the Journey of Life, Do You Sometimes Wish You Had a Map? You now hold such a map in your hands-a to guide you through the twelve gateways of personal growth to the summit of your potential. Dan Millman makes your ascent accessible by bringing enlightenment down to earth-applying spiritual wisdom to the practical realities of everyday life. Explore the challenges and mysteries of body, mind, and emotions.


            Discover Your Worth

Self-worth is not a thing; it is a perception. Just as a gymnast begins a routine with ten points and receives deductions for each mistake, so you began life with a natural, complete sense of worth. (Have you ever met an infant with self-worth issues?) But as you grow, you serve as your own judge, deducting points when you misunderstand the nature of living, and learning when you forget you are a human-in-training and that making mistakes and having slips of integrity and mediocre moments are a part of life.

Things you need to know

  • Only your actions shape your destiny.
  • To fulfill the promise of the second gateway, you need to know and act upon, only three magic words: Just do it.
  • The first gateway is “Discover Your Worth.”
  • The second is “Reclaim Your Will.”
  • It's easy to talk about spiritual ideals, but it means nothing if we don't LIVE our truths.
  • Make any positive behavior as convenient as possible.
  • Replace old negative routines with new behaviors, pouring new energy into a new you.
  • Make any negative behavior as inconvenient as possible.
  • If we want to fulfill our divine destiny and live consistent joy, we've gotta Carpe punctum - close the gap between what we think we're capable of doing and what we're actually doing.
  • Seize the moment, and live fully.
  • Dar Robinson, one of the greatest modern-day daredevils, was terrified with each and every stunt.
  • So maybe it's OK for us to be afraid? Yes! And then we need to do what needs to be done.
  • Your willingness to face it squarely will determine your fate in the high country of human potential.
  • Suffering is our psychological resistance to what happens.
  • The moment we not only accept what is but alchemize it into something positive is the moment we're truly free from suffering.
  • Look for the positive aspect of whatever we're experiencing.
  • Act as if what's happening is something you actually wanted to have happened and watch your suffering evaporate.

  To design your life effectively, you must learn the difference between skills and talents and align your talents with the path you want to take. That’s why I’ve put together a 3-step process you can use to establish a new direction, utilize your talents, and pinpoint the skills that will take you to the next level. This is the same process I’ve used for getting unstuck in my own life, and I firmly believe it can work for you too. here is the 3 most important tips: 1. Identify where you want to go. It’s important to have your end goal in mind at the start of this process so you know where you’re going. Knowing you simply want things to change is not enough. You also need some idea of  how you’d like things to be . So ask yourself…if you could wave a magic wand and make your life look like anything you want, what would it look like? Where would you live? What would you be most excited about? Who would you spend most of your time with? How would you feel when you wake up in the...
