A BIG Shift !

A little over 2 years ago, I embarked upon a journey of self discovery, one that I had been travelling along on, on my own for some years at that stage. I made a decision back then that it was time to reach out for help rather than trying to do everything on my own because even though my life had radically changed in the years running up to that point, there was still a few things that I was struggling with and because I was doing it on my own, I felt like I was getting nowhere.

Just under a week ago, I have the amazing privilege to attend Billionaire Bootcamp in Portugal with the Academy of Wealth and Achievement, and to graduate as well from their amazing trainings. It was the topping on the cake of the last 2 years for me, and something that, at times, I thought I would never ever get through. Surrounded by friends that I had made over the last 26 months, I stood and received my certificate from 3 pivitol people along the journey – Chris Howard, Duane Alley and Johnnie Cass. These 3, amongst others, have been people who have made me laugh and smile, cry and scream and love and hate all at the same time. They have pushed me and pulled me, held me accountable to things I never dreamed possible for myself and showed me what I was capable of just when I felt like giving up.

There was a time in my life when I never believed that it was possible to deal with, or even handle, some of the “stuff” I have chosen to deal with, but my philosophy in life is that if you are going to do anything, you may as well do it properly and full out or else what is the point. And right now, boy am I frikkin glad that I have this “law” in my life. During this last week in Portugal, there was one particular writing process that we went through, and having being a “writer” on a daily basis now for almost 10 years, it proved to me how much I have taken ownership of my life and where I am today. I have had some pretty radical changes in my life over this period with AWA, so I went in with an open mind, ready to take on whatever came my way in my own full-out way. But I never expected to receive what was sent for me.

On the second day of the training, I was doing my writing as was suggested, and that was when possible the most profound shit hit me smack in the fucking face. I messaged a “brother” and asked if we could meet up for a chat on the beach as I was feeling somewhat strange, and as we sat there, close to midnight, going through whatever the hell had happened, and looking out at the sea, I was filled with a sense of peace that I have only ever experienced once before in my life (which we will save for another day soon to come.) For years and years now, I had been working tirelessly on myself, mostly on my own until this last 2 year patch. I had been writing and writing every single day, sometimes for a short period of time, and sometimes for hours on end. That jounery of self discovery to deep within myself sometimes felt like it was a waste of time, yet at the same time, over the years, it has helped me find someone that I deeply care for and love now. And this final piece in the puzzle made me see that it had been the most amazing journey I had ever emarked upon.

Some say that in order to achieve mastery in your life, you must spend 10,000 hours doing what you intend to be a master on, and I have heard this said many times. It often made me question myself as to what value I have to add to the world and how I could ever become a master in some area. During my writing, it dawned on me that there was and is something special and unique about what I do in my life, and that the mastery I had been supposedly looking for was within me all along. Sitting on that beach in Portugal I had the most profound personal Shift in Conciousness that I had ever thought possible, and let me tell you something mate, it was way fucking better than any drug I had ever consumed in my entire life – and I have had a fair share of that along the way too.

Things changed massively that night for me, and to be totally honest with you, things are still shifting around in my head as we speak here, but what I have learned is true mastery in the art of self discovery. It took me almost 1o years to learn and teach myself the Art of True Self Discovery (some may refer to this as Ego Invenio – a term which will be common knowledge in the not so distant future) and it made me realise, along with the support and encouragement of TEAM CHICKEN (they will know who they are when they read this) that I do have something special and unique to offer to the world, and for that  I am truly blessed.

Standing on that stage with those 3 teachers that I mentioned earlier was an end step I once thought was impossible for me. But it was also the end step that made me see the gift I had been given by my personal God – one of the art of true self acceptance, no matter what.

I was meant to be doing a talk next weekend, 24th July, however, due to some massive shifts in mindset and the like, I am going to postpone this unil September this year. Yes, I could get up there and do it but as a result of some transformational conversations in Portugal, I am now working on my first ever “speaking tour” and would like to include the London dates in that. I will keep you informed of everything as we go along, but I just wanted to share with you what has been happening as I have been rather quiet of late.

To those people who were there with me, I would like to say a very BIG thank you to you all. I don’t speak to many people and I sometimes keep very quiet, but I connect from the heart when I do. You all played an amazing part of my journey and I would not have done it without you around. To Mufasa, Team Chicken and Team TBE – you guys have been my rock in this last part of my journey of mastery in self acceptance, and like in a marathon, the last few miles are always the ones where you have to dig deep, and boy have I done that and boy, have you helped me dig down to those depths.

And to everyone out there who has a dream ! Never fucking give up mate. I started out on this journey almost 10 years ago, and there were many times along the way where I wanted to throw the towel in. Keep going. Keep digging. Find people to help you and listen when people share and speak out. You will get there as long as you keep the dream alive.

See you in September baby, and watch out, things will never ever be the same ever again !
