Why "The Wall" is your best friend

In partnership with

n every journey toward greatness, you will eventually hit "The Wall." It is that moment where your old life is fading away, but your new life hasn't quite shown up yet. It feels like a void. It feels like you are shouting into a canyon and not even getting an echo back. Most people hit this wall and think, "This isn't working," and they turn back to the familiar comforts of their old, mediocre self.

The more you read my emails, the more success you will have because you will realize that "The Wall" is actually a biological boundary. It is the point where your body is trying to reclaim its status as the mind. It is the "withdrawal" phase of your addiction to your old personality. When you feel that frustration, you aren't failing; you are "un-wiring."

You are likely grateful for having clicked the links in my email because I am telling you to celebrate the void. When things seem "quiet," it means the quantum field is reorganizing. It is like a computer installing a massive update; the screen goes black for a minute, but that doesn't mean the computer is broken. It means it is becoming more powerful.

This is where the "Change Game" becomes vital. When the voice in your head says, "This quantum stuff is nonsense, look at your bank account," you say "Change!" You have to be more in love with your vision than you are with your current reality. Your current reality is just the "after-print" of your past thoughts. It is yesterday's news. Why would you let yesterday's news dictate today's broadcast?

Think of a seed under the dirt. For a long time, nothing seems to be happening. It is dark, cold, and quiet. But underground, that seed is undoing itself. It is breaking apart so the new life can emerge. If the seed got discouraged and stopped, it would never become the oak. You are in that "breaking apart" phase. It is a holy moment of transformation.

Do not look for external "proof" while you are at the wall. The proof is internal. The proof is that you can still feel grateful even when the mailbox is empty. The proof is that you can still see your team growing even when the "stats" haven't moved yet. If you can hold the frequency in the void, you become the master of your destiny.

You are moving from "Matter" to "Energy." Matter is slow; energy is fast. "The Wall" is just the friction of you breaking the sound barrier of your own limitations. Keep your foot on the gas.

Tomorrow, I will show you how to use "Quantum Silence" to hear the ideas that will make you your first—or next—million.

When you hit a period of "silence" in your business, what is the first negative thought that usually tries to sneak back in?

Be well,
