Yessssssssss! It's over!! Not that I didn't love this challenge but it was soooooo difficult for me! I love so many artists and albums. I didn't even scratch the surface and I've cheated on various posts by putting more then one album, like I am for: Day 10 I was tagged by @ta2dfreek for 10 albums in 10 days - in no particular order. Albums that really made an impact and that are still on my rotation list. Post the cover, no need to explain, and nominate a person each day. Today I nominate: @deadrock98 #10albumsin10days #thegetupkids #fourminutemile #alkalinetrio #goddamnit #fugazi #13songs #reaganyouth #acollectionofpopclassicsby

My Four Minute Mile

I’ve had the pleasure of reading one of Robin Sharma’s books on success, and I can’t even begin to tell you how it has impacted my life. One of the sections in his book discusses the Four Minute Mile, and it is the inspiration behind the URL to my blog. This post will discuss what I’ve learned from that section, what my Four Minute Mile is, and hopefully help you find what yours is.   

The philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer once observed: “Most people take the limits of their vision to be the limits of the world. A few do not. Join them.” The life you see this very moment isn’t necessarily the life of your future. You might be viewing things through the eyes of your fears, limitations, and false assumptions. Once you clean up the stained glass window you see the world through, a whole new set of possibilities appear. 

We see the world not as it is but as we are. This concept has changed my life.

Years ago, it was believed that no human being could ever break the 4 minute mile barrier. But after Roger Bannister broke it, many more replicated his feat within weeks.

Why? Because he showed people what was possible. And then armed with that belief, people did the impossible. 

My four minute mile is the Symetra Tour. I didn’t start golf until 8th grade, and when I tried out for the high school golf team, I couldn’t break 110. Now, 8 years later, I’m averaging 76 in NCAA Division II golf. No one ever thought I was going to play in college because I started so late. But I did. Most girls that I compete against started golf the minute they could walk, so they had about a 10 year head start on me. I didn’t let these factors stop me from getting better, and these last two years, I’ve finally realized that I can turn professional. I’m going to prove to people that I can do the impossible. 

So, what’s your “4 minute mile”?

What have you been telling yourself is impossible?

What false assumptions are you making in terms of what you cannot have, do, and be?

Your thinking creates your reality. If you think something cannot occur in your life, then there’s no way you will take the action required to make that goal a reality. Your “impossibility thinking” becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Your perceived limitations become the chains that keep you from the greatness you were meant to be. And where’s the leadership in that?
