Your First Peek Into the Secret Handbook
So, are you ready for your first secret? I know I’m certainly ready to share it but before I do, I’d like to share a little bit about my strategy in presenting these secrets. There is actually a method to my madness (which, in and of itself, is rather frightening).
What I want you to understand is that there are lots of important things for you to know now but you can’t just dive right in. That would be like only reading the middle of a book (and hey, if that’s your thing that’s cool but you’re going to miss out on a lot.) So, I could just dive in a share a lot of inspirational quotes (to make you feel all warm and fuzzy) and jump all over the place but honestly, that wouldn’t be fair to you.
I want you to actually understand all of this from the beginning, starting with you and working your way out to the rest of the world.
As the philosopher Soren Keirkegaard liked to say:
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
(See, I just threw in an inspirational quote there just ’cause I could. I’m not sure it’s even 100% relevant but it’s inspirational regardless so why not? Who doesn’t love a good quote…but I digress.)
Ok, so back to my mad method. Here are the chapters, so to speak.
First, we’re going to start with figuring out who you are by starting with who you’re not. Then I’ll answer the question “Who Am I?” based on who you’re not. Ok, technically I’ll tell you “Who You Are”, not who I am because that wouldn’t be very useful to you. It might be interesting and yet disturbing while being sorta funny at the same time (sort of a tragic dramatic comedy?) but it’s not going to help you live the life of your dreams. Then again, you can learn from my mistakes (and believe me, there are many) so I’ll throw in some of those tidbits too. Whew, are you still with me?
To sum up, we’ll learn who you are and who you’re not.
Second, we’re going to talk about what life is all about and what you have to do with it (Don’t worry, it’s actually pretty simple and you play an really important role so that’s cool.)
Third, we’re going to talk about why you’re here (which is sorta related to#2 but it’s almost cooler than that because you’re going to learn how to create the life of your dreams. I know, I know…you want to jump right into that but if you don’t learn this other stuff it will never happen. Seriously. You’ll see.)
Fourth and finally, we’ll get to aaaall the other secrets to living a happy life. A lot of them are pretty obvious and many of them are pretty simple but that should be a relief at this point right?
Oh yeah, and I’ll throw in some inspirational quotes along the way too because people just can’t seem to get enough of ’em.
So, that’s my plan but, like all good plans, it’s flexible so please let me know what you’d like to hear about or what you’re struggling with and I’ll do my best to help.
Oh, and if you could please share this blog with others I’d really appreciate it because I really believe in this stuff and I really want to make a difference.
