Which State Was THE Most Critical To Win!?




For some reason I was thinking about elections and voting...

As you know, it's always been a battle within the states (and country) which way is it going to go? Red or Blue?!


Well, when we're talking about which was a state is going to go,  there is a state that's more important than any one of them... 

And this state we're talking about has everything to do with you and your life. I'm talking everything about your life: Your safety, your family, your success, happiness and fulfillment. 

This detail literally will make or break your entire Life!


Well, What Is It?!

The answer isn't democrat or republican. The answer isn't Michigan, Texas, California or Florida...

The answer is...

Your Emotional State! 

Yep, that's right, if you can't control your emotional state you're going to struggle with everything. 

We call it being Baseline.

If you aren't in control of your own emotions, you won't be able to control anything. Worse yet, you are easily controlled by someone or something other than you!

How do you like those apples son!?

No matter how much skill you think you have, none of it matters if you can't keep in control of your emotions. 

The Big Guy...

I told you I'd be unpacking some of what I learned at the Tony Robbins UPW Workshop, so here we go...

Early in the seminar Tony said something that profound and clear:

"The quality of your Life is equal to the quality of your emotions."

Not your money (although that has some importance there are plenty of rich people who are miserable, unhealthy and dead from suicide).

Not your relationships (yes those are vitally important, but if you can't control your emotions you are likely to have more regrets than healthy relationships.)

Not your belongings (obviously, things come and go through your life)

Your health is largely based on your emotional state. 

AND your ability to protect yourself and others is balanced on your ability to control your emotional state. 

If you can't control your Baseline, you won't be able to control pretty much anything! 

It was interesting that Robbins had us spend a great amount of time learning how to control our energy and in turn our emotional state. 

I found that interesting, because my PeaceWalker Training Programs work a lot on that same thing... Mind you, we have a different focus kind of. Maybe a better way of putting it is that we explore different environments to control our emotions, as our courses deal with external conflict...

HOWEVER!!!

If you can't control the conflicts inside of you, you will be at a huge disadvantage dealing with the conflicts that happen outside of you! 


So, The Big Take Away Is...

Learn how to control your emotional state. The better you are able to do that, the better you'll be at being a Protector, a PeaceWalker, a Mom, Dad, employee, business owner, cop, teacher, counselor, manager, or whatever else you choose to do in the human experience.

Are people from Crete Creteans??

Here I am in Crete. It is a pretty cool island. It is a bit more difficult getting around, but far from impossible. Most people speak at least a little english and I have gotten very good at asking (in Greek) if they speak english. I walked around about 15 miles today. Into town, around town, to all (and I do mean all) of their museums, archelogical sights, some cafe's and town squares. I really didn't even get lost today. Wow, I must be making some progress. I met a couple English people (yes, people from England silly) we hung out until about 1am or so and talked about politics, troubled youth, the difference between the FBI, CIA, and Secret Service (don't ask, if I told you I'd have to kill you:), body guards, ccw laws etc. It was kinda of funny, most of the museums that I went to today were under construction and had only one exhibit open. Geeze, you'd think that they would have at least discounted their entry price, but noooooooo! Oh well. I at least had a real

Attracting An Assault?!

  I thought I'd share something interesting about how criminals, predator's, thugs and bullies profile their victims.  Remember I told you the other day, that I was listening to one of Jocko Willink's podcasts?  He was talking about this subject and refenced some research old and newer.  ~ The 1982 study  Attracting Assault: Victims' Nonverbal Cues  by Grayson / Stein ~Marked by Mayhem -  Psychology Today by Hustmyre & Dixit, 1/1/09 Well, I revisited that research and something interesting stuck out like a fart in study hall. Something we talk about all the time at the academy and when I teach seminars and workshops.  Organization. As in being in Kamae. What?! You know being wholistically organized. Here's what Grayson and Stein had to say (paraphrased): The prime difference between perceived victim and non-victim groups revolves around "wholeness" or consistency of movement. Non-victims have an organized quality about their movements. They function co

What's Your Rosebud?

Image
  One of my favorite classic movies is: "Citizen Kane" It starred Orson Welles. [NOTE: spoiler ahead - if you haven't seen it] And, was about the life and legacy of a powerful newspaper publisher, based partly on the late William Randolph Hearst. The movie starts with Charles Foster Kane dying, with his last word being "Rosebud" — and the entire movie is this sort of question of what "Rosebud" is. Turns out it was simply the trade name of a cheap little sled on which Kane was playing on the day he was taken away from his home and his mother as a child. Welles revealed in an interview: "In his subconscious it represented the simplicity, the comfort, above all the lack of responsibility in his home, and also it stood for his mother's love which Kane never lost." The point? We All Have Our Rosebud That thing, moment, or whatever it is that anchors, drives, guides, or inspires you.  For example, the late Johnny Carson and the book of magic tr
