Adventure Muscles

Albert Einstein said, “The Only Person Who Makes No Mistakes Is The Person Who Does Nothing New.”

Here are 7 points to consider when we are forced into the realm of the unknown:

Point 1: We Establish Permanent Residence Where Our Beliefs & Behaviors Have Perfect Fluency.

We know what we know.  We go where we go.  We’ve got the script down.  We do not have any interest in improvization.

Point 2: We Define The Pain Of Change As Greater Than The Joy Of Discovery.

The muscles that have not been exercised scream out in pain when they are called.  The exhiliration of treasure hunting has no effect on us.

Point 3: We Confront Forces On The Move That Come To Move Us From Our Comfort Zone.

If we do not move with a choice, we will be moved without one.  It is not a matter of if we will have our comfort zone invaded, but when.

Point 4: We Are Forced On The Move Without The Conditioning Or Vision.

When the time comes for our perfect Sunday brunches to be interrupted, we may not have our bags packed or swords sharpened.  When it’s time for us to traverse the new landscape, we may not know which way is North.

Point 5: We Must Believe "It Sucks Both Ways", & Step Into The Uncomfortable Unknown.

How long must we wait for a reality that will never come by simply living to avoid discomfort?  One of these pathways will hurt much longer and will remind us of our cowardace for the rest of our lives.  The other may be more intense in the moment, but passes with time.

Point 6: We Will Make Colossal Mistakes & Feel Alive In Ways That Are Indescribable.

The image we have of ourselves is unreasonable.  The standard they set unattainable.  Fall hard and fast.  Make a thunderous boom on your way down.  Then get up and realize you have the endurance to do it again and again.

Point 7: We Will Develop The Conditioning For Adventure & Develop 2020 Vision For Our Future.

Callouses develop with time.  Believe now that the process of adventure is meant to transform you from a coccoon to a butterfly.  Expect the unexpected as what has lain dormant in you now buds to life.

Just like David in the Bible, we all have giants that we need to slay in order to live the lives we are destined to live.  Here are five lies that we believe about our giants that cause us to experience less than the very best:

We believe the lie that these giants do not actually impact us.  We believe that they leave us alone and mind their own business.  We think that they have productive lives as respected citizens and really mean us no harm.  We ignore them and try to move about our lives.  We suffer from subconscious intimidation and fears that are rooted in the fact that we don't confront these giants.  What we could experience in life never manifests because we end up blaming the limitation in our lives on things that have nothing to do with these giants.

Are you vulnerable?  Is it worth it?  The Harrisons talk about it and honestly get a little personal.

It may be bad out there, but that time is soon coming to an end.  When we get to return to the "new normal", how we prepared ourselves during this time will give some of us a head start over those who didn't take the time to set their hearts and minds for advancement.  

You may not have the entire picture, but that is no reason to hesitate.  Many times we get paralyzed because we only have a piece of the plan, but if we will dive fully into that piece we will soon find momentum picking up and we will be on our way to reaching our goal.

Have you ever felt the need for someone to approve of your decisions?  This is often a way for us to sabotage ourselves as we are subconsciously seeking agreement with the bully voice that tells us we will fail.  

We all have bully voices, we just don't know it.  Ryan & Rebekah discuss what a bully voice is, how to recognize it, and most importantly, how to silence it.

In this episode of Adventure Muscles, Ryan & Rebekah discuss the root of insecurity, their own experiences with it, and what they have found is essential to overcome it.  If you struggle with insecurity especially in this unstable time in history, this is a moment to be encouraged with an empowered mindset to help you find an attitude of victory and elevated emotional health.

In this episode of Adventure Muscles, Ryan is excited to announce the Harrison's retirement due to the millions and millions of dollars they just got from his new plumbing innovation.  Actually, the greatest fight of our lives is discussed - the war within - and what must be done to slay the beast of confusion.  A violent confrontation of honest self reflection is the recipe of the day for all who seek to break beyond the hidden booby traps that sabotage our destined success.  Mindfulness practices as well as a special offer for those who are willing to peek behind the curtain of their own motives.

In this episode of Adventure Muscles, Ryan expresses his deep seeded fear of James Bond stealing his woman.  So that's right Daniel, Sean, Roger, & Idris, you aren't allowed to listen to this podcast!  Other than that, the Harrison's discuss the power of "multiplication by subtraction" and share how this time could be the resetting you have needed to take the next step in your journey of faith!
