Our teachers aren’t the mentors and gurus.
Our teachers are the difficulties, challenges, frustrations and enemies.
What we learn intellectually from a coach or a book might point us in a direction, but only what we experience personally can elevate that which we truly know.
If we are looking to raise awareness, sure we can look at the book or the map for some clues on how it might unfold, but then we need to watch what’s actually going on in our own life for opportunities for the real software upgrades.
