How to cut-over to the realm of mastery?
Even before going ahead with answering that question; let's ask another question. Why climb the steep mountain of mastery, why not simply chug along having fun? Because the first leads to joy and fulfilment; and the second path ultimately leads to purposelessness, emptiness and mediocrity. Another word for where the second path leads to is the mid-life crisis, which is nothing but the call of the Universe reminding you to walk towards your highest purpose. Read on, if you want to choose mastery over mediocrity, purpose over a wasted lifetime, joy over intermittent excitement. As per William Glasser, American psychiatrist - We Learn: 10% of what we read 20% of what we hear 30% of what we see 50% of what we see and hear 70% of what we discuss 80% of what we experience 95% of what we teach others. To get what we want, we need to learn and understand it really well. For that, as per the above, we need to teach it to others. That is why I teach others how to lead themselves and their business from good to great, realize their greatest dreams in deepest communion with their highest self and have it all; because I figured that is how I could create it for myself. Therefore, the key to getting what you want is to give it to others. Newton said it too, in what we call his third law - Every action has equal and opposite reaction. If you want to be a master of your field, make others experts of your domain. Let's understand what is Craft Mastery: It is the journey of playing to be the World's best, a Master of our Craft, in service of our customers' said and unsaid needs by becoming a Thought Leader and being at the source of Transformation of our industry globally. Craft Mastery not for the sake of ambition, but as an outcome of being purpose-inspired and Being-of-Service consciousness. Reading and learning not for intellectual stimulation or entertainment, but for the purpose of contributing to the communities that we are committed to serve. Craft Mastery enables the delivery of the Value Proposition at the level our customers have no right to expect and has them queue outside our door to buy from us, instead of us chasing them to buy from us. The journey to being a Master of your Craft has five stages: Stage 1 - Amateur: This is the stage of Passive Learning about your craft, when you learn on your own through reading works of masters in the field, training yourself through material available in the public domain. Stage 2 - Professional: This is the stage of Active Learning, when you implement whatever you are learning to make a difference to your chosen target community. Stage 3 - Expert: You become an Expert by learning through Apprenticeship, when you learn directly from an existing Master of your Craft. Stage 4 - Mentor: You become a mentor when you teach others to become Experts in your domain. Stage 5 - Master: You finally become a Master when you teach others to teach others to become Experts in your domain. This is when you go inside your craft and become it. Your craft and domain is determined by the needs of your customer community. Leadership Depth and Business Excellence is not the craft of the business owners, CEOs and business leaders. You want to grow in Leadership Depth till the Expert level to raise your consciousness all the way to Gear 5, Business Excellence till the Expert level to implement the learnings to build a great business all the way till Mountain 5 and Craft Mastery till the Master level (Stage 5) because that is your legacy to the world. You want to grow in your craft, which includes learning whatever would massively serve your customer community, growing all the way to Master level to be an inventor, an innovator and a global Thought Leader in your domain, your industry. Its like St Francis of Assisi said - It's in giving that we receive. Mastery is achieved by giving away all that you have learnt. The Conscious Mind is able to process only about 15 bits of information from the available 15 million bits of information at any one point. For mastery, one needs to go deeper to be able to access, assimilate, integrate, create much more than the conscious mind is capable of doing. The journey to mastery takes you from your Conscious Mind; to being aware of your self-created barriers sitting in the Conscious Mind, Sub-Conscious Mind and Unconscious Mind; healing yourself for release and freedom from those barriers; to finally transitioning to the Super-Conscious Mind which is your doorway to the Universal Consciousness where all the secrets are hidden. All Masters feel a deep connection with the Universe, God or any other name you may want to give to the essence of The Absolute. Ramanujan saw God in numbers. Einstein wrote “To sense that behind everything that can be experienced, there is something that our minds cannot grasp, whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly." and furthermore, "Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe—a Spirit vastly superior to that of man." As per Henry Ford, America's most well-known businessman whose work transformed how humanity travels, "With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about." Craft Mastery, Leadership Depth, Business Excellence together lead us to our highest self living in the expression of our purpose this lifetime, making a huge difference to the world through our work. Wishing you heroic courage, crystal clear clarity and unwavering commitment to follow your heart to realize your greatest dreams in deepest communion with your highest self and Have It All - deeply fulfilling, successful, profitable business; loving, harmonious, positive, uplifting, relationships; happy, healthy, responsible, confident kids, lots of nourishing, nurturing me-time; and the joy of transforming the world through your craft, your life and your game of fulfilling on your Big Hairy Audacious Goal. Loving you, j. Edited: 11-Mar-25
