Hello world,
This is the beginning of something the Universe has been asking me to do, write my life story down thru blog. The name of this is Awakened Journal and the name Awakened is from Napoleon Hill’s book Outwitting the Devil as he refers to people being asleep in the DRIFT.
I woke up approx 9 months ago when I picked up a book that I’ve owned for about 12 years called The Master Key System by Charles F Haanel. I felt the desire to start it again as something inside me spoke of me not having enough ( I now understand much more about that voice…). Me reading a couple chapters in it for a couple weeks (you read one chapter per week and follow assignment per) and that led me to picking up facebook again. Prior to this I judged everyone almost all the time and definitely judged you if you spent time on the facebook. I stumbled across Danny Page and his 7 day facebook video challenge. I told a good buddy of mine about it, while having absolutely no real desire to actually follow thru, and he said just what I needed to hear to say YES. That led me to to placing a video all 7 days in a row. The 1st three days were fairly clear and I spoke of my past as being raised inside a religious cult’ish environment and the pain and drama of it.
Now at the time when I started this, right when I picked up facebook again, I had 36 friends. One of my videos got over 2,400 views. So something resonated and that fed me to keep going.
Another thing that happened at the same time was seeing Danny Page in a video talk about Core 4. I had no idea what this was and was very intrigued. I felt like I was missing out on something. Then I put the connection to Core 4 and a group he as in called The Lions Den. So it wasn’t long and I joined a paying facebook group that held weekly calls every Wednesday at noon. The group cost 97 dollars a month and my wife and I thru the idea around for about 3 weeks before I actually went thru with it. At the time it was A LOT of money for “coaching”. I had never previously invested in myself and put it on a credit card as I couldn’t see any other way to safely do this.
So, back to Core 4. I found out in the Den that Core 4 is a daily movement forward in the 4 areas of life. Body – fitness / exercise / diet, Balance – relationships / coworkers / friends, Being – your mind / study / books / meditation and Business – all things money and income. I was in the Den for about 3 months before I really started performing these movements. It started with Core 2 or so a day and grew as the power of my life grew. In about 4 months (5 months back from now) I had a solid morning routine fixed with help from a book that I ordered on amazon called The Morning Miracle by Hal Elrod. He explains the power of such a routine. Now a morning routine is something that has 3X my life. I get up almost every morning between 430 – 530 and spend 1.5-2 hours on my rituals.
My life now is radically different than that of a year ago. I have been a guest on podcast (Mindset Mountain) and I know that it’s the first of many. I have made more money than ever previously earned by a ways. I lost a business to a partner who embezzled money (not according to him) and then withdrew on our original agreement so all the hard work I had spent for 3.5 years meant I was privileged with the opportunity to do it all again. The anger I felt for several weeks was intense but then I decided to move forward and stop looking behind at what happened but rather look at what I could do. Best decision I’ve ever made in business up to that point. After all, I was meditating daily and very much a different person mentally speaking.
Anyways, to continue with my introduction, I am a father of two wonderful children. A boy that’s 4 and a girl that is 7. My wonderful wife and I have been married over 15 years already. Life is fucking fantastic! I have my Power Family, the one that I always wanted since growing up in a fucked up shit show that looked great on the outward appearance, and am truly appreciative of it all. Having both children at home with a midwife has been a foundation for closeness to both my children and my wife. We (my Angel disguised as my wife) home-schools our children and they are the leaders in their own tribes. Such strong kids.
I own my own construction business that is growing at an outstanding rate. In construction there are always fires to put out. Think an entire workforce full of B rated people, people that couldn’t get a job elsewhere go to construction (talking about an exaggerated average) so problems are always happening. At first it was an endless cause of stress but when one becomes knowledgeable of how the universe works and changes a few bad habits as well as control his thoughts then kabam! life moves differently. Now the problems I used to have just find a way to sort themselves out, thru the universal spin in my favor, while I just have faith that they will. I am currently changing things up a bit so that I have an office manager doing most of what I’m busy with so that I can fulfill my purpose as this business (ASF) is now a source of busy for me.
Busy is an enemy. Busy keeps one from being in the flow and from entering the creative part of who we are but we can talk about that later.
Now I am starting another journey, one that’s deeply attached to the word AWAKENED. I am going to use this blog as a way of expressing the strong urges the Universe gives me as well as to hone my writing abilities. The Universe has asked me to do so and as recent past scenarios have played out I know better that to try to control how something is taken but rather to just let the Universal power use it as is needed for the greater good.
Relinquishing control has been a bit of a challenge but I am learning to do so and the peace I get from it is amazing. As one of my mentors Jesse Elder states “Nothing to hide, Nothing to prove”. Rather I realize that it just is and I AM.
I will not be posting on a schedule but rather as I “feel” to do so as that is the entire purpose of this. I am sure that the majority of post will be on mindset, spirituality and topics of similar meanings as well as lessons learned and value seen from the facebook “coaching” group that I am about to start.
Part of my purpose is the simply shine and experience life thru growth and the way I feel I am to do this is by helping others to “wake up” and establish success rituals, rituals that have given me an Unfuckwithable mind. Rituals that have 3X my income, rituals that have started relationships with amazing individuals.
To end this I give you my word that every text written will be without fluff or exaggerated content. It will simply just be. Remember that I have nothing to hid and nothing to prove. I AM
Light and Love
Jarred
