Author: Johnoson Crutchfield May 8, 2024 Duration: 5:28
Have you ever felt like you're repeatedly hitting your head against a brick wall without making progress? John Crutchfield knows this frustration well and had to find a solution to overcome obstacles holding him back. Tune in to learn his strategy for gaining a new perspective through reflection - a practice he says is key to "slowing down to speed up." Hear his insights on applying reflection to identify alternative "gates" that can help you move past obstacles in business, health, relationships and more areas of life. Don't miss out! [01:24] Johnoson introduces the metaphor of repeatedly "hitting your head against a brick wall" without seeing the gate (alternative solution). [02:37] Johnoson gives examples of how lack of reflection can lead to stuckness: eating unhealthy foods and not seeing gym results; disrespectful employees repeatedly losing jobs; failing tests from lack of studying. [03:47] "The gate is reflection." Johnoson explains that stopping to gain a broader perspective through reflection allows us to identify why problems recur and find alternative "gates". [04:18] "We have to slow down to speed up." Applying reflection provides clarity and new perspectives to move past obstacles in health, business, family, and more. Key Quotes: • "We've heard this phrase us sometimes we have to slow down to speed up." • "What's going to happen is that you're going to see a gate. And that gate is what's going to move you past being unstuck." If you are interested investing in real estate and make connections, shoot an email grabthemap@gmail.com.
