How to win the Gold Medal in the Olympics of Life?

​Having It All is a measure of Leadership Depth and is an infinite journey to Gear 5 Consciousness, as we raise our consciousness one Gear at a time and travel across multiples spirals of growth from Gear 1 to Gear 5.

Having It All is winning the gold medal in the Olympics of Life. It's in Gear 5, happiness becomes a place to come from, instead of as a reaction to our ever-changing circumstances. 

Having It All is having
i. Deeply fulfilling, successful, profitable business supporting us to live our purpose of life; gifting us with impact, contribution and financial freedom
AND
ii. Loving, harmonious, positive, uplifting relationships at work, at home and in the world
AND
iii. Happy, healthy, responsible, confident kids with their genius joyfully expressed
AND
iv. Nourishing, nurturing ourselves to the highest level of health, fitness and joyous well-being - physical, energy, emotional, mental, spiritual
AND
v. Making a massive difference through the work we do

Not one at the cost of the other.

Breakdowns will happen along the way because that is the design of Life. Our consciousness will strengthen and rise if we use every breakdown as an opportunity to learn and make a bigger difference as an outcome of the learning, supporting us to break through the barrier that caused the breakdown. 

The specific breakdown will point us in the direction of what we are meant to learn to break through. 

If business results are not coming, it's time to step back and reflect to learn what can create business results in alignment with our intentions. And, then apply the learnings to make a bigger difference and transform the area.

If health is failing, it's time to step back and reflect to learn what can create better health in alignment with our intentions. And, then apply the learnings to make a bigger difference and transform the area.

If relationships are failing, it's time to step back and reflect to learn what can create more loving, harmonious, positive, uplifting relationships in alignment with our intentions. And, then apply the learnings to make a bigger difference and transform the area.

If kids are failing to live from our family values, it's time to step back and reflect to learn what do we need to do to create a space for happy, healthy, responsible, confident kids with their genius joyfully expressed in alignment with our intentions. And, then apply the learnings to make a bigger difference and transform the area.

If work feels meaningless and directionless, it's time to step back and reflect to learn what is our Purpose and build our business in alignment with that to make a bigger difference and increase our impact through our work.

A Helpless Victim in the face of a Breakdown will break down.

A Dictatorial Fighter will use brute force to fight the Breakdown at the cost of his relationships, kids, health and well-being. In the beginning, it will feel like as if the Fighter is winning the battle against the Breakdown. But, ultimately the Fighter will break down after the Fight because no one is left to fight.

An Over-functioning Super Hero Martyr will use all her hours to do all the work that everyone else is supposed to do. In the beginning, there will be a satisfaction of being busy being busy. But, ultimately the Over-functioning Super Hero Martyr will break down with mental, emotional and spiritual exhaustion. 

A Distracted Avoider will keep himself distracted to avoid looking at the breakdown, unconsciously hoping the problem will go away if it is not paid attention to. By not looking in the eye of the problem, the problem only becomes bigger and bigger as it goes deeper and deeper within till it breaks down the Avoider.

Usually, we keep cycling between these 4 roles in our Emotional Body, which are an expression of our Hole in the Soul in our Spiritual Body and our small mind in the Mental Body. These roles result in low energy in our Energy Body and do not allow us to live our Purpose; or to re-architect our business, our relationships, our health because of the fear of the unknown.

For our Survival Consciousness, Stressful Anxious Present replete with Breakdowns feels safer than the Unknown that lies hidden within the Darkness of our conscious, sub-conscious and unconscious Fears.

That is why we have a resistance to growth habits and transformative practises, which shows up as a lack of consistency in following through. Our Survival Consciousness says - better be safe with the stressful, anxious present than discover the darkness which will come to the surface as we do more growth habits and transformative practices with consistency.

The darkness coming to the surface is a gift of the growth habits and transformative practises because now we can put the darkness of our fears in the operation theatre of Raw Honesty and can use the surgical tools of Inquiry, Reflection and Exploration to see and accept what's within and dissolve it with the Light of our Loving Awareness.

It takes Courage to break free from the Vicious Cycle perpetuated by the Hole in the Soul and create a New Future.

It takes Humility to not dismiss any low energy emotion that arises and Raw Honesty to go deeper to uncover the Ugly Truth of a limiting thought that we don't want to own, which is at the source of the fleeting low energy emotion. 

And, without that Courage, Humility and Raw Honesty, all we have is a heart that has forgotten to sing, a mind which knows not where to find peace, lips that have forgotten to smile, feet that drag instead of dance to the music of life.

In the vulnerable owning and embracing of our Ugly Truths, which we thought we had gone beyond, lies our growth. Beyond that owning and embracing lies Joyous Freedom to be who we truly are - Love, Gratitude, Reverence, Authenticity, Massive Positive Impact, Humility, Equanimity, Loving Kindness, Integrity, Joy, Abundance - whatever is the version of our Source, whatever is our Real Truth, whatever is the expression of our Whole Soul. 

We deny ourselves the experience of our Real Self by not owning our Darkness, by not owning our Fears, by not owning that we are not as yet fully Light, by not owning that we are not as yet fully Love.

How will we know if we don't spend time looking within? The challenge is that we make progress on our good to great journey by dissolving bit of our Darkness and as an outcome of that, so much success on the outside gets created that we forget to continue to learn, grow and progress on our good to great journey.

Let's continue our journey as Peaceful Warriors with inner quiet Confidence, gentle Courage and unwavering Commitment to together create a Brave New World for ourselves and our kids in the face of breakdowns, and specially, in the face of breakthroughs 💜

Loving you,
