Do more.

That's what most people will tell you if you ask them, "How can I have more of what I want in life?"

While doing more is certainly part of the process, it's not the most important part.

Being is the most important part.

Being is where the magic is.

Being is your superpower.

Being is where it all begins.

Having more, begins with being more.

I like to say that everything you do and have in life flows from your conditioned state of being.

So if you want to create true and lasting change in your life, including what you do and have, focus most of your efforts on developing your state of being.

But how do you do that?

In this episode I share some ideas and insights, including my favorite daily practice to help you develop your state of being so you can have more of what you want in business and in life.

To learn more about the power of being, and how you can harness this power to help you get more of what you want, visit Just Be It!: The Secret To Having What You Want In Life.

In this episode, you'll discover:

The foundation of success in any area of life Why doing more is never enough How to put these concepts into practice and explode your results Where you can learn more about the power of being

My guest this week is Joshua Pollock, co-author of The Heartfulness Way: Heart-Based Meditations For Spiritual Transformation.

He recently spend a day in Boise speaking at a corporate event, doing interviews, and giving a public lecture.

All in an effort to share The Heartfulness Way.

The following will give you a little background on Joshua before you listen to the interview.

Joshua was raised in Maine.

As a child, he recalls spending a lot of time reading books from his parent's enormous book collection.

Later in life he said he did some degree of spiritual seeking, but wasn't specifically looking for a meditation practice when he had a chance encounter with someone on the street that would ultimately lead him to The Heartfulness Way and eventually to meeting his current teacher and co-author Kamlesh D. Patel, also known as Daaji.

Kamlesh later asked Joshua to write a book on meditation, and then agreed to co-author the book with him.

In addition to being a Heartfulness Way trainer and practitioner, Joshua is also an accomplished classical violinist.

He holds a bachelor of musical arts from Indiana University and two masters degrees from Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, UK.

He currently resides in India with his wife and their two children.

Joshua and I after the interview. I'm happy because I've just heard about The Heartfulness Way ;)

Below are excerpts from a lecture Joshua gave while in Boise:

“This is a very simple practice. It’s so simple that when I first started I thought, well, how can this even do anything?” ~ Joshua speaking about his first impression of The Heartfulness Way

“Heartfulness has roots in Raja Yoga [and is about creating a union between] the lowest aspect of yourself [and the] highest aspect of yourself.”

“Heartfulness is about centering yourself in your heart.”

“Meditation isn’t a skill. Really it’s just a process and the benefits you get are the result of performing this process.”

In this episode, you’ll discover:

(Correction: During the opening segment of this podcast I said that Joshua began playing the Violin at age 4. That was incorrect. Joshua was 5 when he began playing.)

You already know your subconscious mind has the answers you need to help you solve even your most pressing problems.

In this episode, you'll discover:

Do you sometimes wish you didn't have problems?

Business problems.

Life problems.

Problems in general.

If so, I feel your pain.

Oftentimes it seems that's all life is; one giant problem.

But what we usually fail to realize is that without problems, we wouldn't be moved to ask for, and implement, solutions that ultimately improve our experience.

So in this episode I share some of the things I think about when it comes to problems and solutions in business and in life, and why we need to have both in order to level up our experience.

In this episode, you'll discover:

Why problems and challenges are actually a good thing, and even necessary to realizing better and better experiences in business and in lifeThe importance of looking at the human experience from a higher, more enlightened perspectiveThe genius of life and why we need each other in more ways than we can imagineOur real work here on earth (in my opinion), and no, it isn't to solve problems.

When we find joy, everything else we want will find us.

Finding joy, and being in the spirit of joy as much as possible is the foundation of health, wealth, and success in every area of life.

In this episode, you'll discover:

Why it's so important to chase the joy over money, love, or anything else you want.The best way to cultivate joy within yourselfResources to help you discover what others have to say about joy and our true nature

This being the 100th episode, I thought I'd devote it to sharing some of the lessons I've learned about business and life while producing this podcast over the past few years.

I hope you enjoy it and that some of these lessons resonate with you.

Here are 10 life and business lessons I've learned in the last 100 episodes:

Have fun and enjoy the process. Every day, I become more and more convinced that joy is everything. It's our purpose, our reason for being, what we come from, what we want, and what we'll one day return to.Don't take yourself or life too seriously. Years ago I ran across a quote attributed to The Buddha. It went something like this, "Act as if the fate of the world depends upon what you do right now, while laughing at yourself for thinking so." That pretty much sums it up.Where you end up might not look like where you thought you'd end up. Our race mind doesn't have the broader perspective that our higher divine mind does. Because of this, things don't always unfold the way we think they will.Take the shot (take lots and lots of shots). The best way to get better at something is to do it more often. So, learning to take a lot of shots, try lots of things, and then try again is a hugely beneficial process for mastery.Do what you love. Everything sucks some of the time. When you're doing what you love, however, you have the energy and drive to get through the times that suck.Chase the meaning. The best game plan in life is to invest your time and vital life energy pursuing something that fills your own cup up while also helping other people get what they want.Trust your intuition. Tuning in to the infinite wisdom within us is absolute game changer. Everything we need to know is within. Our work is to stay in touch with that wisdom and implement it more often.Pay attention to feedback from other people. If we pay attention, people will tell us how they want us to help and serve them. Our work is to listen for their feedback. If you aren't getting any feedback, well, then that's feedback in an of itself. As a friend of mine used to say, "Learn to listen to what people don't say."Develop your courage muscle. It's can be scary to create something and share it with the world. It's much safer to just lay low and not create anything. But that's not going to get us where we want to be. We'd also get really bored eventually. Creating courageously is the name of the game.Pivot, but never quit. It's pretty clear that life is all about the art of the pivot. If something doesn't work, our work is to change our approach (and our mindset) and give it another go. Eventually, as we get better, results come. No one has all the answers and nothing comes as easy as we think it will. That's what makes the game so fun and challenging!
