Speaker 0 (0s): Well, well, well look, who's back. You guys came back, you know, they, they say, if you love something, you should set it free. And if it comes back to you, it was meant to be, I guess this is meant to be my friends. You know, we're going to do today. We're going to do a little in LP. Number five in L P number five, neuro linguistic programming NLP.
I am hopeful that you had a beautiful morning. I'm hopeful, something beautiful happened to you. I'm hopeful that you will find some beauty in the words we are about to get into. I'm hopeful that you will find a lesson buried in the testimony of this lecture. Do you guys have a good weekend? Do you have a good day? Good morning. I hope so. I want to start off with a quick story about something I did this weekend.
That was incredibly unexpected. It's not so much. The event I did was unexpected. It was more about what I saw during the event. So here in Hawaii, we are on lockdown. Like the majority of the places. However, there are some things you can do. One of the things you can do is you can go to the beach. However, you can not sit on the beach. That means you can do an activity in the water.
You'd go surf, wind surf, boating, swimming, snorkeling. I chose to take my beautiful daughter to do some snorkeling at one of the local beaches. It was a beautiful day. I'm always hopeful when we go snorkeling that we're first off going to see fish. Second off that we will see different kinds of fish.
Lastly, I'm hopeful. We will see something that we've never seen before. This was one of those trips, parked the truck, put our gear in the bag, walked down to the beach, put on our snorkels, grab the fins, dive into the water. I'm sure most of you can close your eyes and imagine what the water in Hawaii looks like.
Speaker 1 (3m 0s): Think of any tropical area. And it's this crystal blue water. Some spots are more green than others. And there is a reflection of Silver streaks that run the length of the water. Almost like liquid lightning penetrating through the depths of the ocean as my daughter and I are swimming.
We're making our way out towards some of the reef. And there's lots of colorful fish, Yellow and black, and some spotted orange fish, big ones, small ones, round ones, polka dotted ones. And as we're swimming, when you dive down somewhat, or when you're, at least your ears are below the waterline, it's almost like you're in an alien universe.
You're seeing the landscape that you don't normally see. It's foreign. It's almost alien hope I'm doing a good job of describing this. Cause what I see, what I saw next was mind blowing. So we're making our way through the water. And we come upon a, a rather large rift between two parts of the reef.
The part we are swimming in on the reef is 15 to 20 feet. And then as you swim a little further, it drops down to like 30 feet and it's kind of black. You can't really see the bottom. It's like a, a little think of a small Canyon where you're on top of the water. And you're looking down into the depths of the Canyon. And as we're swimming, I looked to the right and I, I see a figure and it's, I know that there's other snorkelers out there.
However, as I look to the right, I see what appears to be a woman swimming up from the depths of the Canyon. And as I focus in, I realized that it is a woman and it's almost like she just appeared from the depths of this Canyon. And I, I totally attendant my total attention is upon her. And as I, I see her swimming up, I noticed that she's swimming towards a man who is swimming down.
The woman is 15 to 20 feet down and she is swimming up and she has no snorkel. She has no fins. She's in this white garb. She looks like a, a manifestation of a princess of a underwater kingdom. And while this happened quickly, it seemed like it happened.
It was seemed like it was in slow motion. So I'm watching this woman with long flowing hair in this white semi dress swim up and she's meeting. And as I see her swimming up, she reaches out and embraces this man who is swimming down and they class pans and they're drawn together and they kiss each other.
Speaker 3 (6m 49s): It was
Speaker 1 (6m 51s): Mindblowing. As I replay the scene in my mind, it seems like something out of a movie.
Speaker 3 (7m 2s): And
Speaker 1 (7m 4s): So I, well, I had a camera like I have it on camera. I I'll, I'll put a link in the, I'll put a link in the show notes. You guys should all check it out. It's fascinating. And so I, I bring my camera over and I got the majority of it on camera. And then I, I come up, my daughter and I both swim somewhat to the top. We were somewhat on the surface cause we were snorkeling. And then I noticed the two, the couple come up out of the water and I immediately pull off, rip off my snorkel, my glasses I'm like, that is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
You should have someone take a picture of that. And as I'm saying that, I realize that they did have someone taken a picture of it behind in the Canyon. There was a scuba diver and he was filming them, take that scene. And then I realized this was a couple, maybe getting their wedding photos, but it was such a mind blowing picture.
I was, it was mesmerizing. I hope I did a good job explaining that. I hope you take a moment to go into the notes and watch it. Cause it is magnificent. So yeah, that was my beginning story of my weekend. I hope you enjoyed that one there. You're probably thinking, yeah, this is supposed to be neuro linguistic programming. George, not the S not the whole, Hey, listen to my weekend. Who liquid? I did. Sorry about that.
I hope you found it enjoyable. I know I did. And it was awesome. So if you ever, if you're getting ready to get married or if you want a cool, you should think about doing that scene. Awesome. Okay. Let us begin on the Proverbs thought and action thinking everyone who succeeds must first dream. So remember that your head is not just there for a hat and that if you fail to plan, you plan to fail at the very least, don't go out of your depth before you can swim.
Because if you know the road, you can ride full trot. And if you can't then ask those coming back for the best way forward it person in a hurry, arrives late or as slow and steady wins the race. So first catch your hair because once you know how to know and to act are the same, that's why practice makes perfect and repetition is the mother of memory. And also why a pleasant thought never comes too soon.
So be aware that a tree only moves if there's wind and a watched pot, never boils, which is why you don't call a dog with a whip in your hand. And a big goat does not sneeze without a reason. Deciding some say that the world is conquered with words, not swords though. This is easier said than done for fine words. Don't put porridge in the pot.
Of course thought is free. And anything that releases you from a dilemma is useful, but remember, that's easier to think than to act and you don't get anywhere by running in your mind. Nevertheless, the mind is powerful work doesn't kill, but worry does. And if you think something impo...
