« Gentlemen, this is a football. »

Being a native European, it’s funny that this famous quote is the one coming straight to my mind when I realize I should go back to the basics.

Vince Lombardi, leaving a legacy and changing millions of lifes with 5 words!

It happened again this week.

It was about the behavior of replacing fear by love each time I think of or I start doing my contact calls.

I know it works – I’ve experienced it and got great results with it.

But some inadequate beliefs rooted in the Old Blueprint were still empeding that good behavior to become a habit.

Thanks to its recap of all the magic weapons keeping our subby under siege for our best, this week 9 webinar helped me to come back to one of my own fundamentals, discovered 13 years ago.

As this one saved my life on that time, I humbly ask you to take a minute to read what follows, just in case it could serve you or someone you love.

At the time of my discovery, I had since a while become a work junkie, stranger to my wife and my children, smelling like a cold ashtray or an old coffee pot (depending on the distance).

And despite of all these inconveniences…I was broke.

From today’s perspective, I can tell you that God had let me cooked in my own juice until I was fully ready to hear His divine surprise.

And this surprise came an evening while driving home after another exhausting work day.

I had switched on the radio in the middle of an interview of a philosopher, and that man was answering with a warm and loving voice to the questions of a female journalist.

At one moment, the wise man said : « Peace of mind comes from living within love. »

That expression « to live within love » hit me right in the heart.

The only problem was that I had strictly no idea what it meant, and during the rest of the interview, no more clues were given on this by that angel philosopher, whose name was not even announced at the end of the interview!

God knew exactly what He was doing : forcing me to solve that enigma by myself !

It took me three years of passionate readings, trainings, therapies and reconnections with my beloved ones to figure out the solution.

After this, I was still broke, but my soul had finally won the battle to break through my rigid ego and make herself visible to my own wonder-struck eyes.

She showed me the following image : two circles, one named « ego » and the other one named « love » ; at each instant of my life, I am either « within » one circle or « within » the other one, depending on my mood, my feelings, my state of mind.

For example, if I am angry or in doubt or in fear, I am within the ego circle. If I feel confident, happy or joyful, I am within the love circle.

If I am competing against my neighbour to get a bigger car, I am within the ego circle. If I seize the opportunity to be in service for him, I am within the love circle.

From that time, I know that my soul wants me to live within the love circle, and to stay away from the ego circle.

All behaviors based on faith, deliberate practice, focus, sharing and being in service bring me in my love circle.

Behaviors driven by doubt, fear, distraction, judgement, anger or any other negative feeling keep me in my ego circle.

The synergy of all the tools we learned so far in mkmma provides an incredibly powerful way to « live within love. »

I could easily visualize Mark telling us during any mkmma session :

« Gentlemen, this is a DMP. »

Feel Good,
Luc
