Table Rush Talk Show

I got to speak on someone else’s summit for the first time today.“The Forgiveness Zone Summit”.  …Turns out it’s a lot of work to have a lot of hair.  How do you say “extra curricular”?  Putting myself out there a little bit is leading to some opportunities.  My big lesson from being an interviewee.

Mischa Z: 00:01 What a cool day today. That's what I'm going to tell you about. But a cool day today, I was asked to speak on a sonnet. So that's what I'm going to talk about. How fun is that? Well, let's get right to it. Well, first off, let me just say that I was on a zoom meeting and, um, as my hair gets longer, I've officially, um, not had a care cut for, um, for, uh, a year and a half, and so my curls are in full effect, but I was on a zoom meeting this morning and well, the, the, as you, as a man, never really having long hair, I never understood the amount of effort that can go into, into managing said long hair. So hair ties, things like that, and really conditioning the long hair. So I've got curls and they can get super, um, knotted up.

Mischa Z: 01:09 So you've got to, you've got to do some deep conditioning anyway, the day after can be awesome. Like the day after day one, the next day of the deep conditioning. Oh my gosh. Like full Robert plant mode. Now I see why girls, when they've got date night or whatever, or, or, you know, they've got a big night coming out, why it's so important that they do their hair and why they, it takes time. It just takes time. It takes time in the shower, all that stuff. So it's a process. It's a process. So anyway, any ladies that I've been married to and, or dated over the years, I apologize for any pressure that I have put on you to speed up due to hair care scenarios, um, anyhow, uh, onto it. So Connie, um, what's called his last name. See if I can find it quick.

Mischa Z: 02:19 Connie asked me to be on her summit and what was super cool about that as well, was that I been very busy in my summit and, and doing these things. And so I hadn't been many on many of the extra, extra, extra correct. Correctly, extra what's that word? Oh my gosh. You know, when you're an extracurricular Yael is I can't even say it. Oh my gosh. It's late. I'm so tired going on. That summit took so much out of me speaking on that summit. It was the first I imagine once you get used to it, it's super easy, but energy-wise extra curricularly. Gosh, darn it.

Mischa Z: 03:11 Email me the emails in the show notes, email. How you say that correctly? Oh my gosh, this is embarrassing. I hit pause so I can look it up, extra curricular, extra curricular activities. Anyhow. Um, so I get asked to speak on the summit and, uh, yeah. Time, effort, energy. Um, definitely, definitely, uh, tired as I record this. Um, oh yeah. So I had, I forgot why after all that talk on extra curricular activities, I forgot what I was leaving. I brought that up, but there's all these extra curricular activities available on the two CCX coaching, you know, opportunities to network, to learn, to grow, to bounce ideas with other people within the, within the coaching group, other coaches really cool times. And so I, the other day went on one of these extra curricular activities and, uh, someone who'd seen me on this in this coaching group for the last year was like, Hey, be on my summit. So I was like, of course I will. So that was very exciting to put myself out there a little bit and then get like a cool opportunity to, um, be asked to support someone's summit and to share my message. So her summit is super cool. It's Connie Macintosh Connie. And let me find, uh, Connie and Alan Macintosh. And there's someone who's called the, um, the forgiveness summit, which I think is beautiful and their tagline is getting out of your own way. So I get to speak on what inspires me to help others.

Mischa Z: 05:18 How, okay. And what was the next question? So the first one, what do you feel holds? What do you feel holds people from becoming the best they can be? I got to speak to that. I don't want to take too long on this episode and I would encourage you to log into the summit when it becomes available to hear my answers. I'm sure I'll take an episode and give my answers, but worried about, uh, oh, how do you help them overcome those feelings? And then a lot of time people hold feeling resentment and blame deep inside. How could you help that person become successful in all parts of their lives? I got to speak to that, which was super fun. How great are these questions in your opinion, how does a global crisis affect individuals? We've seen incredible successes and huge losses. How does this happen?

Mischa Z: 06:21 That was fun to speak to that both on an individual. And I touched politically on it just for fun, just for a second. And then do you have any other advice for our audience today? So I got to answer all those, the fun, fun, fun part, or the other interesting thing that developed was there's bonus rounds on these interview, on these summits oftentimes, right? There's the free interviews and then there's the upgrade bonus interviews. And she originally didn't ask me to do the bonus interview when we started. And I was like, oh, that's interesting. And so it turns out I added so much value on interview. One that she's like, Hey, I want you to do the bonus interview. And so I got to do the bonus interview, which she called "more with Mischa" and, um, I got to go deeper on some of the strategies and tactics that I have for dealing with resentments, um, for, you know, um, what was the thing she said about, uh, about how to help others about, um, about what do you feel holds people back from becoming the best they can be?

Mischa Z: 07:40 And I went more in depth into tools and tactics for that. So that was super fun. Oh, and being my first summit, the big, big takeaway that I had was whenever I needed to pause and find my place in my notes, or think from it a minute, excuse me, I was super uncomfortable with the long pause. So I would cut a corner or I would just skip over or forget where I was, where absolutely next time I will not be afraid of the long pause in breathing, finding my spot, finding the point I wanted to make. So I kind of rushed through that being my first summit in being an interviewee on my first summit. Um, but no big deal. I feel like I was able to serve her audience and, um, bring valuable content. And I got to earn my way into the bonus interview. And then I did miss, uh, at least one important prayer that I wanted to put on there, which super bummed me out. But so be it. I prayed, how can we be of service? What can I bring to table beforehand? So clearly that's what the universe wanted me to do. So anyway, there you go. Hair stories. I'm learning how to manage a big mop of hair. And I got to speak on my first summit and there's a couple of lessons from it. Peace out.

First, a quick blurb on loving my home yoga practice.  And second,A Course In Miracles was super juicy today and sparks a lot of thinking.  “Seek not outside yourself”…Or stop trying to fill the God sized hole with shiny objects.  I’m all in on that idea right now. With one of my main thoughts being: Just because we let go of wanting shiny objects It doesn’t mean we won’t get them.  It just means we won’t care.  But that can be a hard spot to get too.

Transcript:  Mischa Z: 00:02 Can I tell you that my yoga practice is strong. The home yoga practice is strong and thriving. Um, uh, two full. I do two, at least two sessions a week or two, I guess two days, two of the days right now, I'm currently doing it on Friday and Sundays, an hour, an hour home practice. That's very good. Has got forward bands back then, side bends, twists. Um, what else it's supposed to have in there? I don't know. I have a buddy below who says the things that make a good yoga class forward, bends back bends, side bends, twists. And what else? At least that perhaps more, but it's good. Rigorous. The breathing is awesome and I'm feeling the benefits. I believe I will add in a third day, I can lift my arms above my head. Again, I can't even believe I'm admitting that during the peak of the COVID after walking for a year and not doing any yoga or pushups or, or anything like that, I was just walking and walking and walking and I found that it was indeed hard to take my shirt off.

Mischa Z: 01:33 I was like, this is insane at the end of the day. I'm that stiff because I think I was, I will. The other thing, not only was I doing less or zero yoga, um, or a lot of the other, you know, I was doing all this construction on my house and my free time not doing any of that. Um, what was I gonna say? Uh, I just, oh yeah. Sitting on the computer and doing all this to CCX Russell Brunson, coaching summit, podcasting, all this stuff w pulled me to the desk a lot more. So lots more typing, lots more staring at screens a lot more, perhaps hunched forward. Rolling my shoulders, needing to work on my posture, sitting sideways, sitting crooked, heck just sitting a lot more. I went from barely ever sitting to sitting a ton and no, none of the stretching and twisting and all that.

Mischa Z: 02:39 And so my body was like, "yo dude, get after it, get your routine together." So anyway, I feel, um, it's nice to feel flexible and have that illusory body strength that yoga can provide didn't mean to go that long about that, but it is true. Um, I was going to talk today. The rest of this episode is going to be, was going to be a pure A Course In Miracles episode. Been a while since I've done one of those. So I wrote some notes, the section of chapter 29 that I read today was so juicy. I was like, eh, I just took so many notes. I thought, you know what, I'm going to try an episode and see if I can expand on the sentences that I wrote down. So, ACIM from the text section, chapter 29 The Awakening, section seven, seek not outside yourself. Not outside yourself.

Mischa Z: 04:05 First thing I think about that as I'm all in on that right now, I'm like, yeah, go within find that God within that capital S self packets in my intro of my podcast, but, but filling that God size hole that's in me with the God within. Right. And, uh, so what I think is really interesting about that is somebody else might already have that section of their life sort of shored up and whole and complete and good. And so this part of the course in miracles night bite not jump out as the them as strongly might not jump out as you as strongly or resonate as much. So I just had that awareness. I was like, oh, wow, that's pretty cool. Like this section is just compelling me to write down all these sentences. Um, so paragraph six.one, "all idols of this world were made to keep the truth within from being known to you."

Mischa Z: 05:16 "All idols of this world were made to keep the truth within from being known to you and to maintain allegiances to the dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be complete and happy". "And to maintain the allegiances to the dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be complete and happy." So all those shiny objects that are out there for me right now, it can be since I'm single women, um, it can be new levels of success or new success, or the summit success, or looks likes, follows, or validation from the 2CCX crew. My coaches, um, you know, financial financially finding financial success again. Um, cause it's, it's been a little bit and that's okay. And all these things, if I can, if I can fill the God-sized hole with God, with infinite intelligence, with whatever, then those allegiances to the dream, to the outside shiny objects. Um, I'm not looking at those for the short term happiness, um, or to make me feel complete. And I would even go so far as to say that could be, you know, your girlfriend doing what you want her to do in the moment. Like she's acting like you want her to, or your boyfriend or whatever, whatever way you swing, um, guy, girl, or your whatever, I'm going to save it.

Mischa Z: 07:12 I believe you get what I'm saying. Or, you know, your kids a loser in the moment or doing what you want, acting, how you want having success, whatever it is not being a pain in the butt, blah, blah, blah. Right? It's like, oh yes, I'm whole life is so great. That can change in a heartbeat. The more source that happiness is within seven.one, the more that's from within the more long-term happiness completeness, we will feel. Seven.one. Let us forget the purposes. "Let us forget the purpose of the world. The past has given it." "Let us forget the purpose of the world. The past has given it" 7.24. "Otherwise the future will be like the past. And, but a set, a series of depressing dreams in which all idols fail you one by one and you see death and disappointment, everywhere."

Mischa Z: 08:19 Everything we get attached to, we will lose. Right? Everything that I think I can't live without, I will have to learn to live with without, including my health, my hair life. As I know it, the way that I currently relate to this world. Um, but forget the, let us forget the purpose of the world. The past has given it, which means that whatever purpose we thought there was, we don't know it was illusory. It was. People are full of crap. They tell us that they know what the purpose is. Oh my God. Cause no one's ever living up to it. To change all this eight.one. "To change all this and open up a road of hope and of release in what appears to be an endless circle of despair you need, but to decide you do not know the purpose of the world." Oh, that was just the bomb set right there.

Mischa Z: 09:32 My gosh, I've got so much to go with times that I lost track of how long this, this one was going. And then I was going on my yoga rant to start. Um, all we need to do is decide, I do not know the purpose of the world. And I love that, man. I love when I'm in the mindset of more will be revealed, who knows? It's not for me to know. I don't know. It's so big who knows what's going on out there? Like how much freedom that creates in me. And that can be, it can be a tough, that could be a tough wall to get over or a tough wall to breakthrough. Say it however you want. But when I truly believe at none of that man, how freeing is that, then I don't need to know. And I don't need to pretend that I know for you or anything.

Mischa Z: 10:28 So good. Nine dot six. "The fear of God is, but the death is, but the fear of loss of idols". Nine, six, "The fear of God is, but the fear of loss of idols". Nine.Seven, "It is not the fear of loss of your reality." I I love that, man. It's like this idea that if I go all in on God or source or the infinite or whatever, again, call it whatever you want. I'm just going to say God, if I go all in on God, that I'm like what I have to let go of success. I have to let go of girls. I have to let go of money. I have to let go of all this stuff and I won't get it, all these things that I'm unwilling to go of perhaps. And the cool thing is if we can let go, if we, if we can stop fearing the loss of those idols, all those shiny objects who knows what it is for you, long-term marriage, or I have no idea, healthy kids or dating, lots and lots of multiple girlfriends who knows what it is, can be so many different things.

Mischa Z: 11:37 But, um, "the fear of God is, but the fear of loss of idols." Yes. So the point is, if you can let go of those, the fear of loss, and then you just don't, it doesn't mean you won't get it, but you just don't care. How cool was that? Like, I don't care if this or that happens or I get this for that. And if I do great, if I don't, so be it anyway, I better chop chop nine dot eight. "But you have made of your reality, an idol, which you must protect against the light of truth." I mean, how true is that you have made that you have made of your reality and idle meaning fear of losing what I have or not getting what I want.

Mischa Z: 12:32 Salvation ten.two. "Salvation seeks to prove there is no death and only life exists. That's a deep one. I'm not even sure how to talk about that. Let's see. I believe the idea is that when we're attached to these idols and these illusions and these things, they are constantly going away and changing and follow falling apart and quote unquote dying or going away, or we're losing them, fear, death, all these, right? Like wrap it up however you want. And so if we find salvation we're able to find source and be so full of God and source that we let go of all of this illusions. It there's no illusions, there's nothing to lose. There is no death and fracturing and, and all these things and change. So love that. Hey, I think I did a pretty good job. Thank you. Explaining 10 dot two. 10.5 in the last one. "Let him remind you of his love for you and do not seek to drown his voice in chance of deep despair to idols of yourself" more of what is a different spin on the same, turn the source. And, uh, don't drown out source with the shiny objects with the sirens call.

Mischa Z: 14:21 Oh my God. There's so much up there. Everybody have a great day. Actually. I won't stop right there. I want to say what I said. So you got to hear me talk about how powerful yoga is to keeping a nice, flexible life and a empowered life. And then also, um, some ACIM goodness, there we go. Have yourself a great day.

I continue with the thought of, “What am I supposed to be doing with my life?” and “Why the belief is should be anything different than what I am doing right now?”  And if I can strip off judgment, strip off expectations, strip off societal pressures, strip off familial pressures…I am freed.

Episode notes:

Mischa Z  : 00:02 On the previous episode, I've referenced to the question of “what am I supposed to be doing with my life?” I'm 53. I’ve wondering for decades.  With brief moments of, oh, I I've found my calling most of the time. It's like, “what is my calling?” Uh, but that, uh, but that what I'm supposed to be doing with my life is what I'm doing right now. And if I can strip off judgment, strip off expectations, strip off societal pressures, strip off familial pressures. Um, what I'm doing right now, creating podcast episodes. Um, I just did my bio yesterday. Um, you know, all these things, uh, they get to interview for somebody else's summit be interviewed.

Mischa Z  : 01:05 Yeah, that's what I'm supposed to be doing right now. That's it.  Why the belief that it needs to be different? And I like that question. And I like that concept.  Finding acceptance of the moment, what I'm doing. I do not need to be anywhere different, differently, different. I believe you understand what I'm saying. So the strategy learned how to love what I'm doing right now, because that is what I'm supposed to be doing right now. That is literally what God has me doing right now, or the universe or infinite intelligence. So the tactics around that.  I talk about them all the time. I do.

Mischa Z  : 02:01 So then we graduate to, as I am now doing what I'm supposed to be doing, my calling, whether I believe it or not.  As I'm working on my calling.  This is so funny. Thank you for listening and indulging me. I hope you're having as much fun as I am. I do, because this is fun and I'm working hard to be of service, to carry a valuable message and, um, to lead by example to be the mad scientist and go out and try new things and report back. Um, but the question is I just really had this awareness. I was like, wow, I'm in the heat of the battle with this whole 2CCX thing with this whole Russell Brunson high-end coaching thing, just getting done with the summit. And now there's a lot, lot more to do and potentially a lifetime worth of work. And I'm like, well, if one day at a time, and I like this concept one day at a time, if I'm willing to keep at it, how do I not have it be pressure filled? How do I have sleepful nights? How do I find contentment where I am within that process? Not feeling that I'm behind not feeling that I need to do more, not feeling that I need to be farther along than I am.  Not, not competitively looking at where I stand, where to relative to my perception of others.

Mischa Z  : 04:10 And you know, the more I can keep in the moment, how do we keep in the moment? How do I keep in the moment by keep my thoughts to being of service, pray to be of service or a God, what do you have me? What will you have me do here? Where would you have me go? What would you have me do? And what would you have me say? And to whom, for example.  Um, totally lost my train of thought. My son's alarm is going off in his room. It totally threw me off hold please.

Mischa Z  : 04:48 And how can I find an appropriate amount of, to do or to do's or work or work life balance. I dunno if work-life balance is the right thing to say, but, you know.  Can I be happy putting in, let's just say five solid hours towards it a day and not feeling the need to do more? And let me tell you five solid hours that's legit.  Five solid hours that's legit, like there's little breaks in there. There's lunches, there's distractions. There's, uh, you know, this, that, and the other thing. So the reality of five solid hours, some people people might be thinking, well, gosh, I'm doing 10 or 12 hour days. Yeah. I'm sure that you're doing a 12 hour day. That's highly focused consistently. I find a five hour day is much more productive. I'm just saying, so how do I not fall into that trap of need more or needing to be further ahead?

Mischa Z  : 06:02 Anyway, these are just, this is this, these are things. So of course I've got my standard tools of prayer, meditation, journaling, um, service, you know, talking to my coaches, my mentors, all these things, um, you know, learning, growing, trying to, and in that vein I have, um, I have a, uh…  I’m interviewing Daniel Packard and we're going to talk about just that thing. We are going to talk about just this thing. So I'm super excited to learn some new tactics to help the mental, the mental, the mental, uh, hopscotchery. And, uh, I'm going to end with this and just a little bit of a rant here that, um, that oftentimes I am happy and comfortable and content, and it's all good, but it's when the shiny object takes over. I need to have X amount of money, X amount of success, X amount of looks, X amount of likes.

Mischa Z  : 07:13 I need to, you know, just have, I can feel the pressure. What's the little, the bio, the little bio pressure, amplified pressure everywhere in my life. So now I've got the little pressure of having an email sequence done. That's amplifying the pressure and other parts of my life. And so how do I acknowledge the email sequence pressure and understand that in the big scheme of things, if it takes me an extra two weeks and I lose, you know, 50 of my 400 new list, like it's not the end of the world. Um, I'm just at the very beginning. I don’t know. This is just the stuff that was rolling through my melon a bit disjointed, um, trying to have fun people, trying to have fun. Welcome to the, um, to the fray. Those ahead. Thank you for leading the path. Peace out.

20 years ago today was 9/11.  I remember where I was that day, what I was doing, and what I was thinking…It is perhaps not quite what you think.   I have changed a lot in that 20 years and I talk a little bit about it.

Episode notes:

Check out the Tools For A Good Life Summit here: Virtually and FOR FREE https://bit.ly/ToolsForAGoodLifeSummit

Mischa Z  : 00:02 September 11th, 2021, 20 years ago was September 11th, 2001. I was 33 years old. I was living in Berkeley, California. I had, was married to Dawn, the lovely Dawn who was literally the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life. I swear to you when I met her, I was dumbstruck and, uh, we had a good run married for 12 years together for 14 or married 11 together, 13, something like that. Anyhow, we had our first baby Cooper who was six, seven months old, perhaps. Yes, right in there. I was sort of on the, not sort of, I was on the front end of my sales career. So I was five years into my sales career, maybe six years, something like that. 3, 4, 5, 6, 5 or six years into my sales career. I was aggressive and I worked a lot of hours and I was trying hard. Telemarketing ,cold calling, going door to door, walking into, into offices, asking for the C T O the chief technology officer.

Mischa Z  : 01:48 I was selling tech. I was selling data lines, data co-location, um, all this sort of stuff, infrastructure, the data lines and the warehouse infrastructure for all the tech, all the dot-coms and I was full A type mode. And I remember that day, very poignantly. And perhaps for not the reason that you think, perhaps not the reason that you think. And that is really what I want to discuss on this episode is what I'm going to discuss on this episode. So I had had a wife, brand new baby. I believe I had finally purchased my first car with a loan.

Mischa Z  : 02:52 How funny is that? Up until that point, I had been paying cash for my cars. And it was all about work. What did I have to do to succeed? So I'm sitting there that morning and, um, perhaps I was getting ready to go into the office or, or maybe I was working from home initially, but, there it was on the news. One of the twin towers had been hit by an airplane and I'm watching it. And I'm thinking about work and I'm thinking about work. And, and then as it goes on the tower collapses, the second building had been hit and the tower collapses. And I'm almost hesitant to admit it, but this was my thought, are they going to close the office today? Am I going to get to work today? I've got deals to work on. I've got prospects to talk to, I've got cold calls to make. Let me add it, let me at work. And I was really, really concerned.

Mischa Z  : 04:21 Are they, are they going to close the office? I remember talking to my boss and perhaps I had been talking to other coworkers. I think I was, but definitely the boss. And I was like, come on, we got to keep the office open. Like I got work to do. I got sales to make. I had very little compassion. And definitely self-centered, I believe you would call that at the time. Cause I was really worried about me and how it was going to affect me. And then I'll tell you another thing. That's very interesting. I suppose it was a couple of years before that perhaps when lady Di had passed away, she died in that, in that car crash and the tunnel or whatever. And it had Don and I probably were not married yet, but definitely living together. And she was very upset as many women were back at that point because, you know, she represented a lot of things for a lot of women.

Mischa Z  : 05:36 Lady Di did and I was, I had no compassion, no empathy, no what's the other word. Uh, sympathy, sympathy, empathy. One of those two words is appropriate. Um, perhaps both are. But I remember just telling her to mock up, you know, effectively, I might not have said buck up, but I would probably was like, why are you so effective? It's just, you know, it's just a blah, blah, blah or whatever. Just, you know, completely unaffected, completely showing no sympathy, no compassion, no empathy, and very closed off from my old feelings and my own feelings. And, uh, I actually apologized to Dawn for that years later. And I, when I did, I don't think she'd remembered, but I remembered, I was like, man, I was asshole. It's like, or I remember I was at a, at a meeting one time and someone was upset that they, their cat had died. I was like, I grew up in Wyoming, barn cats died all the time, blah, blah, blah. Again, no compassion, no empathy, no sympathy. And, and um, and that was the case on the morning of 9/11. And I was actually fairly, fairly upset that I wasn't going to get to work that day. And then I was concerned about how long as the office going to be closed.

Mischa Z  : 07:17 And, uh, I was telling the story to somebody today actually. And they said, oh yes. The... So fast forward to today, I am a different person. Like I just ha I can have compassion, empathy, sympathy. I can hold space for people. I can...just, it doesn't like, I think back in the day, right, when Dawn was upset that princess Diana passed away, I could not handle that. Upsettedness. And so I would have to pull up this book, this wall, or this arrogance or this edge. And yeah, I'm a different guy today. Like someone loses a pet that sucks, you know, or a parent dying or step-parents, or God forbid a, you know, a brother or sister or a child or, or just all this stuff. It's like the littler things that I can have sympathy for.

Mischa Z  : 08:27 And then also I don't need to shut down my emotions or run and hide when big things go down. So what did my friends say today? He said by rugged individualism stopped working for me. It was a great way to say it. My rugged individualism stopped working for me. Honestly, today, all politics aside, like I hope you can appreciate that. I don't really care about the politics of the matter. And, uh, I, I'm very grateful that I can see things from a more nurturing, compassionate, as I've said, um, empathetic sympathetic standpoint, and I can cry with people. I can cry by myself. I can, I can not have to put up a front of rugged individualism. Of this strongness, or it doesn't bother me. Or if things don't bother me, it's not out of arrogance. There was arrogance around all that before. Arrogance and selfishness. And that arrogance and selfishness has absolutely tempered in me. That's what I've got to say. Um, I believe life is amazing. I'm stoked to be alive, gifted with the spark of life with spirit. Everybody have a great day. This September 11th. I hope you have grown personally yourselves since that day. Peace out.

I’ve got to write a bio for a summit that I’ve been asked to speak on.   I write one up and don’t ask for any feedback or comments because I don’t want it to turn into a 6 month process :).  I just let it fly.  The Google also told me how to write a 3 sentence bio.

Episode notes:

I seem to be back on track with my consistent episode recordings while I walk and at home.  The stream of consciousness channel seems to be open and vibrant.

Today I want to talk about one thing or perhaps two.

one a.  I once said, I will probably be on my death bed wondering what I’m supposed to do with my life.  A young 53 as I record this.  There is no doubt if I get to have gradual death.  Versus, as Barbara Karnes says, a sudden death.

It’s what I’m doin right now.  What am I supposed to be doing with my life?  It’s what I’m doing right now.

What am I going to do with my life.   Turns out what I’m doing right now.  Why is it supposed to be any different?

I’ve been asked to speak on another summit and I’m supposed to have a bio.  This is what I came up with after a few days of avoiding…

This is what I came up with.

Mischa Zvegintzov, aka Mischa Z, is director of Be Love Media where he uses his irreverent personality and real life experience to create content focused on personal growth, pivoting forward, and serving the world through change.  

Never scared to ask the hard questions, Mischa helps growth minded High Performers move beyond the constant worries of money and the need for relationships so that they can thrive in the 2nd half of life.

Coach Vince says pick a style for your bio.  Either transparent or formal.  But not blended.

I googled how to write a bio…  And came up with “how to write a 3 sentence bio”

• What do you do?
• How can you help?
• Your call to action.

I did not forward it to anybody for review or commentary because I do not want to spend 6 months doing this.  Just let it rip, let it fly.

Often times high performers do not want to admit they are not performing or that they are worried.  I am not here to convince anybody that they are anywhere other than where they are.

The bio is just for one summit.  The great news is it will be out there forever, until I die.  Hey man,  you’ve just got to let it fly!  Let it go.  Embrace the messy action.  So there’s my ode to messy action.  

So what I’m supposed to be doing with my life…  It’s what I’m doing right now.  

If I’m going to be continuing down this path, one day at a time.  For the foreseeable future.  How do I not have it be stressful.

I go through a series of questions around “The world is as I choose to see it”.  And we can chose to see the world as “Good, beautiful, magical, loving.” How do you see it?  Are you willing to see it differently?  Do you need help seeing it differently?  Do you want to see it differently.

You know how I fond I am of “A Course In Miracles” (ACIM).  I read it everyday come hell or high-water.  I am currently in the text portion of ACIM.  I started with the workbook for students.  

I was reading it this morning and I am in Chp 29, section 6, The Forgiveness and the end of time.

It is the idea that when you can find forgiveness for everybody and everything, including yourself, time slips away.  On the surface it can seem flippant.  

Paragraph 1 sentence 1.  “How willing are you to forgive your brother?”  And that is a great question to ask yourself.  And I encourage everybody to do that.

When we say are brother that can be literally.  How willing am I to forgive my siblings?  I am extremely willing to forgive my literal brother.  Some people are not, there is tension in their family.  

And we can stretch that out to friends.  And then of course it’s our enemies.  And then of course it’s anybody.

How willing am I to forgive somebody.  I’m very willing.  I’m working on it.  It’s been very powerful for me the more willing I am to forgive people.  People, places, and things.

Paragraph 1 sentence 5. This is the sacrifice salvation asks and gladly offers peace.  You forgive your brothers you will find peace.  Super powerful, super simple, I find it to be true.  

It is so powerful when you hear people get on the news after an extreme criminal act has happened to them or their families and they offer forgiveness to the accused or perpetrator.  

We can wonder of course how can they do that.  But it provides ultimate freedom.  Can I offer forgiveness to the person who cuts me off.  To the, the simple things.  

I wrote down some thoughts.

The world is as I choose to see it.  It is very clear that that is the case to me right now.  

How do I choose to see it?  How do I choose to see the world?  Loving, beautiful, abundant, infinite?  Shiny, radiant, magical, awesome.  Full of love?  All these things.

Do I need help seeing it differently?  If I can’t see it like that, do I need help seeing it differently?   Learning how to see it.  It’s such a great question.  If we could see the world like that why wouldn’t we?  Why wouldn’t you?  Why wouldn’t I?

Or we can see it as dark, evil, death.  Everything comes to an end.  There’s evil.  There’s corruption.  There’s BAD people.  

What if we could see it the other way?  Ignorance is bliss perhaps?  Do I need help seeing it differently?  More magical, loving, creation.  Do I need help learning how?

Do I want to see it differently?  Some people don’t want to see it differently.  You could offer them a beautiful vision of forgiveness, love, freedom, hope, creation, life, expanding creation.  People are going to go “No! I do not want to see it like that.”  “I don’t!”

I had this thought that we could help people see it differently.  Not that they should.  No right or wrong.  Let’s strip away all judgment.  It takes all sides of the coin and some people don’t want to see it differently.  I do! I have those moments where that alludes me.

None the less.  How do I choose seeing it?  Do I need help seeing it differently.  Some days yes.  Do I need help learning how, some days yes.  And I am open to that help  I am willing to see it differently.  Ignorance may be bliss.

Yara Golden’s has a course called Subscriber Reviver.   On this training she says part of being authentic is talking about where you have gotten help.  Where it has been a team effort.  As a my friend Earston is telling me how much he liked the summit interviews it strikes me how much my coach helped.  And I give some love to the rest of the coaches who pushed me forward.     

Episode notes:

Where I needed help, how I got help, and how it helped with the success of the summit.

The summit success that I had is absolutely attributable to a team effort well over and about just me.

The next round of training that I am going through is to help with telling an authentic story to your audience.  And I now have an audience. 

In the 2CCX coaching group that I’m in we have access to the “Subscriber Reviver” course via Yara Golden.  Her method is story selling.  One of the key points she brought up; part of being authentic is saying where you have gotten help or people have helped you.  Where was it a team effort?  Make sure you say where you have stumbled, where you have had help, where the team effort was part of your success.

As I was listening to Yara say that in her course, I was thinking maybe I could address that a little bit more.

A buddy had checked out the Summit while he was on vacation.  And he spontaneously said how much he liked the summit.  How powerful the speakers were, they were legitimate.  They weren’t hacks, how much value they brought.  He was talking about home much he really really liked it.

He continued with how well I did as an interviewer, anytime he wanted to ask a question of the speaker I seemed to know and would ask that question.   He was very excited and “was not blowing smoke”…

Of course take the good with the bad :). 

As he continued to go on about certain things I that I did during the interview.  It was very clear to me that Vince, my coach, gave me those tips.  Vince gave me those tips right before I started doing the interviews. 

That morning or the day before Vince said, drill down on those steps, ask about them, make it real…  “Ok I will try”.  Vince helped so much with copy.

Vince, NJ, Kyle, Steve, all the coaches, Andrea Peer - my tech person, helped me so much!

The point is Earston, my buddy, was shining a light on how much vince helped me.  I’m giving homage to Vince!

There you go, me being vulnerable and talking about the team effort!

Here are the top 3 prayers that I am using right now.  The first one is for when I’m wondering what the hell am I doing with this life.  The second one is for when I’m feeling competitive and judge’e.  The third one is for whenever I think I know what is best for someone else and I’m conflicted about what to do.  Or I want to tell someone what to do.

Episode notes:

The top 3 prayers that I am using right now.  

And that can change.  Prayers can be more or less potent.  They can effect you at different times in different ways.  Perhaps the come top of mind due to circumstances.  Or we learn new ones along the way.

I’m trying to record everyday. If I record earlier in the morning it’s better.  What ever better means.  Usually I’ve meditated.  Some ACIM. ect.  Mind is crackling.  Vs recording at end of the night when I’m burnt out.  

I came across this idea; If you are running out of things to say on your podcast, blog, etc.  It is because you are not being your authentic self.  And I loved that thought!

Prayer #1.  This one came to me via “A Return To Love” by Marianne Williamson. There’s lot’s of good prayers in there and I’ve dog eared a lot of them.  The poignant one from there is:  “God, where would you have me go? What would you have me do?  What would you have me say and to whom?”  Providing me solace coming out of the summit.

Prayer #2.  For when I get competitive or judge’e.  That competitive is poison for me.  I saw someone who had a summit very much like mine.  That started after mine.  And I was not hoping for the best for them.  And I caught myself.  I don’t want to feel this way.  “God, give everything I want for my self to __________.  Give them their health, their happiness, and their prosperity.”  And give that stuff to them before you give it to me.  

Prayer #3.  “God how would me support your path for ___________?  Setting aside my own selfish wants and desires.”  Anybody who I think I know what is best for them I need to say this prayer.   For anyone who we think they need to do things differently.  Or if I’m conflicted on what I should do in many circumstances.  And then breath, and then listen, and then take action when the signs comes.  

My own selfish wants and desires skew everything.  I want me kids to make me look good.  I don’t want to loose something to somebody.  Ex’s.  I get along great with my X but I say that prayer a lot if necessary.  

My ego, I don’t want to loose something.  Or I’m afraid I won’t get something.  Or how am I gonna look.  How is this person gonna make me look.  I don’t want to feel stressed.  I don’t want to fell loss.  I don’t want to feel sad.  I don’t want to feel this.  Or I want to feel xxxx.  I want! I want! I want!  Or, I don’t want! I don’t want! I don’t want!  And that’s all my selfish and egocentric wants and desires.  It skews stuff.  So I can be willing to step aside from that and how powerful that is.

God where would you have me go, what would you have me do, what would you have me say and to whom?  If I feel like what the hell am I doing is this life that’s a good one.

“God, give everything I want for my self to __said person__.  Give them their health, their happiness, and their prosperity.”  When I feel resentful judge or what have you.

“God how would me support your path for ___________?  Setting aside my own selfish wants and desires.”  So I can take heart centered action.  When I take those actions I am free of the results.

Now that the summit is done I’ve been tasked to work on 3 things by my coach.  And to be honest it is extremely overwhelming. 1) Take control of my calendar and schedule my next campaigns.  2) Refine my avatar and who I want to help. 3) Start creating frameworks and deliverables that I can take to my avatar. 

Episode notes:

Check out the Tools For A Good Life Summit here: Virtually and FOR FREE https://bit.ly/ToolsForAGoodLifeSummit

The purpose of this episode is to talk about next steps.  The continuation of the summit.  I got done with the summit and there is all this space. 

Holding space for people.  Creating space for next. 

Next steps now that “space” is there.  Next steps, holding space.  There is now new space.  Literally, energetically, there’s new space.  Perhaps 10 years ago if I’d have heard the term “new space” or “holding space”, I’d have been like “yeah right!”.

My coach vince…  You now get to solidify, or put words on paper.  Who are you looking to help or guide?  Who do I want to help?  Get that codified, solidified on paper.  Now that I’ve asked to be on somebody else’s summit I need a concise vision of who I am looking to serve.

“What an order! I can’t go through with it!”

It’s time to solidify who I want to help and refine my avatar.  Who I want to help.

Now it is time for me to start calendaring my next campaign.  Get a wall calendar so I can put campaigns on there.  It is time to take accountability and ownership of that.  Take control of my schedule moving forward.

Come up with frame works.  Here are actionable steps you can take mr avatar.  I need to do what?  Are you kidding my?  Go find frameworks that I like and that I’ve used myself, and add my own content to it.  Find the 70 to 80% that I like and add my own 20%.  And that is how we progress forward. 

One hiccup that I have to that is I always want to have the brightest idea and the brand new.  How cool is it that that is not required?

1. Take control of my calendar
2. Refine my avatar.  Who I want to help
3. Start creating frameworks so I have a deliverable an offer able.

One step of a time I can do all that…
