Last night we started a 6 day course with PSI Seminars. These seminars are geared towards personal development, and recognizing how the Paradigms or Prejudices that we carry in our sub conscious mind hold us back.
In almost any area of life, be it a job, business or changing your lifestyle to living full time in an RV, there are things in your own mind that will hold you back. In the job it could be, am I good enough, nobody in my circle of family or friends makes that much so how could I, my neighbors all have this type of job, so why should I look for a better one.
In the area of business, it usually is, I am just a small business, how could I take on this large contract, If I stick my nose out my bigger competitors will eat me alive.
In the area of Full Time RV’ing you have the paradigm of having to own a house or property, and working at a full time job, “like everyone else”.
Paradigms are beliefs that are buried in your sub conscious mind. You do not even know they are there, but the control everything that you do.
I read an article a while back where some experiments were done with salesmen. Now most salesmen will sell about the same amount of product each year, since they have a paradigm that says that this is what they are capable of. What they did with these salesmen was get them all excited in sales seminars, and promised them free trips and other rewards if they would double their sales for the year. For the first month or so it worked, most of the salesmen would sell three or four times their normal amount, but then something interesting happens. That is they will actually sell less than their average for the rest of the year, so that at the end of the year they will have sold their usual volume or dollar amount. Their sub conscious mind told them that they were a salesman that sold X amount per year, and it made sure that is exactly what they did.
Now the only way this can be changed is by changing the Paradigm that controls the behavior. This is the same in all areas of life. The reason most people make $50,000 a year is because their paradigm tells them that is what they make. If they could change the paradigm to say $200,000 I can almost guarantee that is what they will be making within a few years.
So if you want to break out of the home ownership paradigm and into the Full Time RV paradigm, you are going to have to do a bit of work. The work is basically forming a goal, getting emotionally attached to that goal, and thinking about it all the time. Anyone can do this, but it takes time. The only way it can usually be sped up exponentially is to get life coaching.
When you talk to Full Time RV’ers, or any body that is perusing an alternative lifestyle you will soon find out that most of them first thought about it for a few years, then dreamed about it (emotional) for a few more years, till finally the paradigm had shifted enough for them to actually make the move.
One of the buttons you will see at the top of my blog says coaching. I have been trained by Bob Proctor’s (from “The Secret Movie”) company LifeSuccess as a Life Coach. I am trying to specialize my coaching toward people who want to change their life by becoming Full Time Rv’ers. I want to coach in this area, because Full Time RV’ing is one of my passions, and I understand the draw.
