Don't deprive people of their rock bottom
Positive experiences do not cause as much havoc in our nervous system as negative emotional responses do.
We are so impressionable that we tell ourselves stories that might not even be our true beliefs because we want to fit in. Our brain just naturally mirrors things that we like from our external environment, which eventually becomes our reality.
This tends to be short-lived contentment and eventually hits us for the worst.
In the body-building community, it's a common theme to say and believe that we hate cardio; because "we are all about lifting" and that we are "meatheads". I'd tell myself the story that I hate cardio and running.
That period of my life eventually led to my rock bottom, and we will talk about that in this episode.
Before we dive in, keep in mind that sometimes, we have to go through rock bottom to reach our high point.
- If you keep telling yourself the same story that you've picked up from your external environment over and over again, what do you think is going to happen? The story that you tell yourself will manifest and become your reality! [2:50]
- Body-building caused my panic attacks, extreme anxiety, and basically, just my rock bottom. I will never ever train anybody to train body-building again. It's not a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. [4:40]
- Don't deprive someone of their rock bottom because it's at rock bottom where we open our eyes and become awake. [6:30]
- Be wary of the advice that you give. Offer support and be there for that person, but don't intervene [unless it will lead to death or prison] on their way towards rock-bottom. Only then will they make a life-changing decision for the better. [8:28]
This episode is for people who want to help all the time, who step in and intervenes too much. You still can – by supporting them and being there for them in their rock bottom.
It's painful, yes. But, on the other side of the rock bottom is the biggest lesson and just pure greatness!
Journey on up and come live awake with us.
