I want to give you another example of disrupting patterns because this is such a powerful concept
for you to grasp. If you can upset the standard signals that you've been receiving, from your
environment and your life and the way you've structured your life, you will go a long way
toward giving yourself a major boost in the direction of achieving more and creating more
success in your life. So let me give you an example of two clients that I worked with,
and what they did is ingenious and remarkably creative, and all I asked them was what would
be a disruptive shift that would change what's going on for you. Let me tell you about them.
They were a couple. They ran a business together, and this business took them being, like, on
when they were there. And they would hit the door early, and they would stay eight, nine
hours, working, working, working, ten hours, and they were exhausted by the time they got
home. Now, here's the problem. They were people who loved literature. They loved music. They
loved art, but they were so wrung out, even though each of them had a private library
of their own where they could really be by themselves and study, and listen to music,
and look at art books. All of that, they never really did it because they came home so exhausted.
So, here's what they decided to do, and it was ingenious. The decided, look, we'll tell
our friends that this is what's going on. We'll tell them when they can call. We'll
unhook the phones. Their decision was to get up at three o'clock in the morning and to
go to be at seven o'clock, and their reasoning was as follows. They wanted to be able to
absorb the music, the art, the literature that was available for them to study the study
they wanted to do of foreign languages. They had a whole agenda that if they came home
from work they felt crappy, and they didn't have the kind of energy left in the day to
use the focus. So they said we'll get up at three o'clock in the morning, and we'll go
to bed at seven o'clock, and they shifted their life around so that they had four hours
in the morning that were theirs for any kind of thing that they wanted to that would take
them into that lush cultural terrain that they wanted to occupy. And the intelligence
of it was that when they got to work, they weren't exhausted. They were uplifted because
they'd spent four hours with what they loved and had been starving themselves from having,
and then when they went to work, they'd work hard anyway, and they went home exhausted,
which was what they were always doing anyway, but they crashed in bed at seven and got up
at three and started the cycle again. This was amazing creativity, and it came from them
deeply asking, what could I do with my schedule to disrupt the patterns we're in? What could
we do together? It's one of the most remarkable things that I ever had any clients do. I help
clients look for that disruptive shift. I am like--When I listen to what they say, I
can hear one word and I can run with it and find--help them find certain places to go,
but they were the geniuses in this. And it's my thrill to be with people who are so intelligent
and so smart, but just need to have somebody help them slow down, stop, and take a look.
It's brilliant. It was amazing. I give it to you because you might even want to do something
with your schedule. Doing things with your schedule really shifts things, and it doesn't
have to be as drastic. Think about it. It's powerful to disrupt the old signals from your
life and move and know you're moving in a new direction. Since you're a high achiever
you may know about this. High achievers often hit a wall. They're going along, they're having
one success after another and then suddenly, something happens and they grind to a halt.
And it's confusing because they're not sure what it is they've done wrong if anything.
They just know that they're not moving anymore the way they're used to moving. The way they
have moved in the past. If you've run into like what seems like a ceiling over you and
you're kind of in a fog and you're mystified by what's getting in your way, you can even
kind of slide into a swirl of doubts and wonder if you ever really achieved anything significant
at all and whether any of your amazing achievements you have done were anything but kind of fronting
or a little bit of a fraud. That is really negative and pernicious and it doesn't have
to be that way. I want you to go get a free report from me. Go to DrKenChristian.com/Breakthrough
