Passion Struck with John R. Miles Stop Applying a Governor to Your Life w/ John R. Miles EP 31
So many today are living short of their potential. I believe it is because of restrictions we place on ourselves, and that is why you need to stop applying a governor to your life.
Are you living to your true capability, your purpose in life, your future potential? According to a number of recent studies from Gallup, Gartner, and Bill and Melinda Gates - The majority of us are not. I believe that is because of our self-governor. And you know what that governor is?
It is our MINDS!!!
And when it starts facing fear or adversity, it shuts down.
You can think of our governor as our survival mechanism is our safety blanket as that crutch. When things start to get very painful, your mind ends up taking control and then tells you and your body that you need to be doing something else, anything other than putting yourself into that uncomfortable place.
In this episode, you will learn why as few as 15% of all people globally live their lives to their full abilities.
You will learn the three ways to recognize your self-governors and then how to stop applying a governor to your capabilities and unlocking a passion-driven life.
Enjoy!
