#18 – Are You Ready for the Truth?
What is truth?

-
If so, there is no need to learn new things!

Is it what the person we’re talking to believes?

Are you ready for the truth?
The truth takes a longing to be better and step out of our comfort zone.
It takes a readiness to listen to those that think differently than us. It also requires a yearning for new knowledge and thought patterns. If we believe the truth is just what we know and believe, our world will get smaller the longer we live.
So, to find the truth, we need to learn, we need to listen, and we need to ask good questions. We created our Vision to Wealth Process for this very purpose. To help people find truth and a path to being their best!
Today, society is self-focused, without room for others with different opinions.
What thought processes have we never explored because of this? Many are unwilling to tread in the wild realm where “difference of opinion” lies because only those that think like them are acceptable. A thought pattern like this eventually leads to mediocrity!
My challenge to you is simple:
-
Listen to others that think differently than you.
-
Look for information from sources that are outside of your normal scope.
-
Find a coach that will take you to places that may not be comfortable.
-
Get excited about new ways of thinking.
These four steps will help you be better tomorrow than you are today. Let’s start down this path today! Besides having a closed mind… Procrastination is your number one enemy!
