I got home at 2 AM Monday, Aug 17, 2009, after a week in British Columbia taking the course entitled Mind of Steel, Heart of Gold with T. Harv Eker’s PEAK POTENTIALS. The course was given at a campground in Squamish Valley, north of Vancouver. Lofty peaks covered in glacier were visible above our tents, at least, when it wasn’t raining. BC was plagued this summer with drought, until we arrived. And then it poured rain for almost 3 full days.
So the question is What did I learn? It’s now the end of Wednesday. I’ll do my best, more because I am listening, rather than to tell you. Here goes.
Well the first thing I noticed was that I am unusually cheerful. Downright giddy, actually. I burst out in expressions of “I love my life!” spontaneously, upon entering my kitchen and seeing the sun come into the window a particular way, or while walking down the street for no apparent reason. “I love my life!” seems to come barreling through my chest and spout out my lips before I have a chance to suppress it.
A little jingle comes with it and it goes like this: I’m focused. I trust my heart. I train my brain. I love my life!
Also, things I once feared, I am now anticipating with excitement. For instance, I have had a lifelong fear of heights. It doesn’t totally stop me from climbing mountains, but it makes it an ordeal. Today I find myself wondering how I can sign up for a weekend rock climbing course. I can hardly wait. People I might have been intimidated to approach, I am stepping up to with a big grin, feeling relaxed and curious. Dreaded phone calls are now fun.
I found out that I am had by my heart virtue. What I mean by that is, I don’t have a heart virtue. It has me.
The heart virtue that has me is harmony and commitment. I promised Greg Mooers www.lifecamp.com that I would tell 3 people every day about my commitment to harmony and commitment. I know I am repeating the word commitment a lot of times, but sometimes a heart virtue doesn’t come out the first time in the most proper English. So here goes, I am telling you:
I am committed to harmony and commitment, and I am especially committed to harmony for children.
There. I’ve done it. I promised to say it to 3 people a day for 7 days and watch what happens.
I also learned what I am going to say when I meet Oprah. I am ready.
And then there was Wilbert Alix www.trancedance.com
I learned about soul from Wilbert. I learned about stepping into the vastness of it. Owning that vastness. I can’t remember a time when I cried more.
I really want to write more about this. But it’s late and I have an early morning appointment wih Qi Gong. Yes, I know that’s new for me. Good night.
