High Velocity, Week 5: "Right" Experience***************************************************************** Welcome to this week's "High Velocity" from James Arthur Ray. *****************************************************************The "Right" Experience By James Arthur Ray You may have heard it said that, "experience is the best teacher." This is both true and false. I submit to you that "Right experience is the best teacher." Let me illustrate. If you are like me, you have been trained since childhood that "If you work hard and are a good person you will be successful." And yet, based upon YOUR PERSONAL experience, this may be true or it may be very false. Obviously, you can find examples of good people that work hard and are very successful. And, you can find just as many examples of good people who work extremely hard and can barely make ends meet, can't you? Consequently, based upon your experience, you may believe that what you parents taught you is absolutely true or you may believe that life is terribly unfair. Thomas Troward said, "Principle is not determined by precedent." (Stop! And really think about that one--I mean REALLY think about what that means.) I might put it this way, "The past does not equal the future," or "Unlimited possibility is not defined by your current results." ***************************************************************** Conventional wisdom is wrong again... Balance is bogus! Only harmony yields happiness and real wealth...

Just as important with regard to experience is the idea of putting into practical application that which you know. There is a big difference between knowledge and knowing. Knowledge is an intellectual process. Knowing is an ownership/application process. I can obtain knowledge and know that it is truth, but until that knowledge is continuously forged in action, I will never own it. Those with the Entrepreneurial Mindset(tm) put their knowledge into massive, immediate, consistent, persistent action! There is a big difference between giving a book report and writing the book. So to summarize for this week, as an entrepreneurial thinker, you must leverage your experience in two ways: 1. Constantly question your experience. Question if it is "Right Experience" that gives you the unlimited results you desire. Or, are you possibly limited by your own past? 2. Put ALL newfound knowledge into continuous action. This frequently means having the courage to take risk. Move from knowledge to knowing. After learning, write the book. Consistently remember that the greatest achievers make the greatest number of mistakes. Why? They are taking more action! Right Experience comes from consistent, immediate, intelligent, persistent action! Get busy... and make your life magnificent! ***************************************************************** James Arthur Ray, CSP: Master of the Entrepreneurial Mindset and author of "The Science of Success."
