The Unknown Story Behind The Name ‘Action Tribe’ with AJ | Episode 319

A question I often get from listeners in our community is…

What is the story behind Action tribe? Why did you name it so?

Because the truth is that you enjoy the experience of being referred to as Action tribe,

which I do pretty often during the episode.

You might not be able to explain this sense of camaraderie and belonging you feel within our community,

but like I always say, energy speaks more than words..

And I’m sure that you can sense this web of interconnectedness that connects each and every one who listens or has ever listened to this show…

It’s special.

So in today’s episode, I’m going to explain the back story.

Alright, so let’s begin…

Action Tribe – that’s 2 words…

Action… and Tribe…

Let’s start with ‘Action’…

Whether we admit it or not, we all have a relation with that word.

You see….

When I began my self development journey, I had set some goals for myself.

I wanted to wake up early..
I wanted to start a blog of my own…
I wanted to lose some weight and go to the gym….

But very often, I was say things to myself, but not really follow through on it…

Does that sound familiar?…

And in the evening or maybe a week down the line, when I would realize that I hadn’t followed through, I would start criticizing myself and blaming myself for not being able to execute my plans.

I would be hard on myself,

and guess what?….

The situation would get even worse because I would have all this emotional overwhelm and internal chatter going on in my head

(in addition to not having taken action and accomplished my goals!)..

And sometimes, I would give myself an identity…

“I’m a failure”

“Or that I’m stupid”

“Or that I’m just slow”

Which in retrospect was a bad decision..

What I realized was that self improvement and personal development is a journey…

It’s a process of unfolding, letting go and unlearning…

And that’s why It’s even more important to be kind to yourself…

And give yourself some self love and appreciation for the journey that you’re on.

It’s really not easy to change your life and re-write the subconscious programming that going on 24×7…

And so I decided that if I were to give myself an identity, I might as well give myself an identity that empowers me and one that makes me feel like I’m in control..

That’s how I began to acknowledge that I’m…an Action taker.

And that made a huge difference!

Being an action taker means you’re in control of your who you surround yourself with, your thoughts, your emotions and your actions…

And the latest research in epigenetics suggests that if you take care of these factors, then you can literally change your gene expression!

Isn’t that amazing?

You’re in control!

You’re not limited to the genetic traits that you received from your parents!

So that was Action….

Now let’s move on to the ‘Tribe’ part of Action Tribe..

According to the ‘Urban dictionary’..

Yes, I chose the Urban dictionary because sometimes you need to break rules…

But according to the Urban dictionary,

‘A tribe is a group of friends that becomes your family.

The people that will be there for you no matter what and who you’re guaranteed to have a good time with.’

And as I was growing up, I never had this group of friends that I could belong to or hang out with or just feel like I was part of…

I always had this yearning, this craving to belong somewhere. Anywhere!

We all have this sense of wanting to be accepted.

This need to belong….

To a tribe, community, group, city or even a nation.

This is our basic need – at the Root chakra level.

But I never had that…

Probably because I was always the odd one out, and a bit strange compared to the other.

I am a left handed person, and people would make fun of my funny and awkward way of writing.

I wasn’t too much into pop culture…

In fact,

I’d much rather spend my lunch breaks by myself drawing sketches of batman or spider-man or superman.

Or spew out random facts about the world because I loved general knowledge!..

Like what’s the capital of Ethiopia or What’s the deepest part of the ocean?

I was really good at day dreaming and recording stuff on my computer and speaking in different accents and playing my guitar…

And in retrospect?..

I was different from the other students in class..

I didn’t fit into the christian group because my mom was Christian…
Nor did I fit in with the Hindus because my Dad was Hindu….

And looking back, I think it was a good experience because it taught me to be comfortable by my own self.

And more importantly, I began to build a relationship with the Universe…..

And subconsciously call upon it for strength and insight.

And when I went to college?..

I decided to go to another city called Pune to study at a University called Symbiosis, which attracted students from all over Asia and beyond…

This was my opportunity to just push beyond my comfort zone and experience life away from my home..

But for the 1st few months, I had a hard time belonging…

I noticed that each group wanted you to conform to its norms, mindsets and pattern of behavior…

All people wanted was to do was go to parties, drink, gossip about one another, play mind games, attend classes and live for the weekend.

That….wasn’t really my idea of life.

And I always thought I was the strange, weird one because I didn’t aspire to most of their ideals..

And then one night it dawned on me…

I asked myself, ‘Why did I come to this University?’

‘….and how many international students did I really meet so far?’

And I realized that I had only met a few international students.

So I took this as a cue for me to reach out to some of the international students and genuinely learn about them..

And this in retrospect was one of the best decisions I made.

I met some amazing people – from Sudan, Tanzania, South Korea, Bhutan and Shillong (although Shillong is technically a part of India, I had never met people from that amazing place before)..

And just learning about these different cultures had the effect of opening my mind to what is…

And their genuine curiosity about me and where I’m from, in a funny way, gave me a sense of belonging.

Not belonging to a city or a group or a state or a country…

But belong to one race. One species. One Earth.

And that Action Tribe was the seed for the Action Tribe movement.

And guess what..

That was when I also experienced Marijuana for the first time..

There was a deep stigma among a majority of the Indian people about smoking or consuming the plant…

It’s funny because in the ancient times, our deities like Shiva were big fans of Marijuana and other types of Soma.

So I trusted my intuition and experienced Marijuana…

And that again had the effect of opening my mind beyond the confines of my current identity – my body, my beliefs, my country…

And I sort of let go and loosend up a bit…

And opened myself to oneness, acceptance and divine intervention.

So that was the first stage.

The second stage was when I joined AIESEC…

Now in you don’t know what AIESEC is, it is basically an International student group that sends and receives students from around the world on various types of internships.

Upon joining AIESEC, for the very first time, I met people from Canada, Amsterdam, Germany, Denmark, Poland, China, Philippines and many other countries…

Smart, talented, open and impact driven students coming together to make a difference in the communities they’re part of.

And all the interns we received were big fans of India.

They would love wearing Indian clothes, eating Indian food and trying to speak Indian languages, which was awesome.

And I met some cool people there.

This was another factor that paved the way for the Action tribe movement.

And this new outlook gave me an understanding that there is so much more to experience, to know, to see and to do…

And most importantly, it assured me that what divides us is not our countries, our religion, our color or our creed.

What divides us is our mindset and our ability to use our hearts.

It gave me a hope that someday, I’ll find my own tribe….

And if I don’t, I’ll create one

(Not just for me, but for the entire human race)

And that’s why I named it Action Tribe.

Because I know that many of you are going through a major change in life…

Where you are healing and letting go of energies.

And with all of that letting go?..

You might let go of your job, your close friends or even leave your home…

So I wanted Action tribe to be your community that you can come to no matter where you are.

All you need is the internet and a podcast app or Youtube app or a Facebook app.

And then when I completed my undergrad and came home to Mumbai, I was really missing out on the community which I had sort of developed back at University.

And so after a lot of going inward and working on my chakras (which is a whole different story, which I’ll go into some other time), I took 2 actions.

Step 1) I joined Toastmasters to improve my communication and speaking skills. As a bonus, I became part of a group called The Bombay Toastmasters Club.

What a group of people!

I really enjoyed meeting them every other week at our club house and delivering speeches and judging speeches and planning events and travelling for conferences.

I really enjoyed being part of this community!

Step 2) I came across SGI – The Soka Gakkai International organization, which is a Buddhist group.

Again, out of nowhere I just manifested this group, which really made a huge impact in my life.

Just being with these people, and chanting with them and raising my vibrations and supporting each other made me feel like I was part of something larger than myself.

Joining these 2 groups made me realize that when I do start an online community sometime in the future, I would create a community called Action tribe for people around the world who have no community or support system to belong to.

And from the messages and emails and iTunes reviews and Instagram DMs that I’ve been getting?

It seems like I’ve struck a chord there!

Because so many of you feel like you’re part of Action tribe.

You cant quite express it, but energetically you feel a pull of inspiration and hope that makes you feel happy, just being part of Action tribe. 🙂

And we have listeners from around the world, literally!

I have my statistic window open in front of me right now, so let me read out the top 20 listener countries.

And I thank you for this..

If it wasn’t for you, then we wouldn’t be here!

So thanks a ton, but realize that there’s a lot of work to be done.

And I can’t do everything myself..

So when the right time comes, I’ll call upon you for support and for your energy for the next phase of our global Action tribe movement.

So there you go action tribe…

These are some of the factors and reasons why I named our community Action Tribe.

The Parable Of The Elephant And Ganesha With AJ | Episode 316

In today’s episode, I’m going to share a story with you called

‘The Parable of The Elephant And Ganesha’.

And I’m certain that by the end of this session?

You’re going to look at life very differently.

My goal with this episode in particular is to remind you of who you truly are..

And give you the assurance that you’ll need on the path ahead.

The journey that you’re about to embark on is not going to be an easy one,

but I assure you that greatness resides within you…

And I am rooting for you!…

This is a story about an Elephant named Apu…

Apu lived in a village on the outskirts of a large forest called Mudumali in South India.

Apu was a fully grown Elephant and had spent all his life in this little village, and would often entertain people at the circus or lift wood or do other work that he was ordered to do by his mahout, his owner.

Apu had a few friends just like him that would every day wake up, take a bath, do as ordered, finish a whole day’s work, receive their daily structured meals and go to sleep.

And then begin the next day once again.

That was life.

That was what a simple, well behaved elephant would do…

But Apu?..

He was a bit different than the other elephants.

He had dreams…

And he had yearnings…

He had heard stories about wild elephants (his ancestors) who lived in the dense forests of Mudumalai…

Up in the wild hills….

Surrounded by wild animals..

Eating the fresh, dense, green leaves, flowers and fruits from the jungle..

Living the wild and free lifestyle….

Doing as they pleased..

Like the kings of the jungle.

“They are so lucky and privileged to lead such an amazing life!”, he would imagine…

And as soon as he would start daydreaming, his mahout or his owner would remind him..

“Apu, do your work! We need to transfer all these logs into the truck by evening..

Or else, I won’t get paid…

and you won’t get food!”

“Alright, alright. I’ll do as you say”, he would reply by getting back to work.

Apu didn’t know who his parents were…

Some of the elder elephants had once told him that his parents?…

Were still in the ancient jungle.

But not this one…

They were in another province.

Apu was once kidnapped as a baby elephant…

While his parents, along with other adults, were out foraging for the tribe…

That’s right.

He was snatched from his home and sold in the markets of this village.

For 200 rupees…

And ever since he was a little baby elephant?..

He was tied to this large pillar with an iron chain around his legs…

Apu still remembered the first time he tried escaping from his shackles…

Wailing and crying and sobbing….

So bitterly!

To meet his parents in the jungle..

And live the life of the wild elephants that he had heard about from his friends…

The wild and free lifestyle!..

So that he could wake up whenever he wanted to..

Eat whatever he wanted to..

Bathe whenever he wanted to…

And eat the fresh, green, nutritious food…from the goodness of the Earth.

Apu loved bananas!..

And he had heard that the bananas in the jungle were much bigger and tastier..

Apu yearned to walk around the jungle..

Proud, fearless and confident.

But along with this yearning?..

He still remembered the painful memories of trying to escape from these metallic shackles when he was a little elephant..

One night, when he was 2 years old, he tried to break free…

He took a deep breathe in…

And then gave off a loud trumpeting sound…

And then with all his might?..

He pushed hard to tear away from the chains around his legs.

But instead of it breaking…

He developed multiple cuts on his legs, which started bleeding..

And hearing all the noise, the mahout woke up and whipped him 10 times as a punishment for trying to escape.

From that day on, he realized..

He couldn’t break free.

It just wasn’t possible.

So he stopped trying.

The chains were too strong, and he would only get more hurt and bruised, if he did try.

He still has the scars to show for them..

Deep down, Apu decided..

That his fate would be to obey and follow orders.

So that he could be a well behaved elephant, do his work and make his master happy.

But one day?..

He had a little magical conversation with a 5 year old boy who had come to see the elephant with his family..

You see…

Adults often forget that they can have long conversations with animals…

But children haven’t forgotten yet…

The little boy could emotionally sense that Apu was hurting and was wondering what his purpose in life was…

He whispered into Apu’s ears…

“Apu, I feel your pain..

Don’t worry, everything is going to be…..alright..

Just call up Ganesha!…

He is the God with the head of an elephant.

He has the power to help you remove all the obstacles in your life, so that you can live the life of your dreams.”

So with all his heart, Apu prayed and connected his heart to Ganesha.

He didn’t have anything to lose!

Besides, he was tired and bored with the monotony of everyday life..

He wanted to know…What was in store for him.

Would he ever become a wild elephant once again?…

So with that intention in mind, he went to sleep.

And then, you won’t believe what happened!

Someone was whispered in Apu’s ear..

“Apu?…

Apu?…

Wake up Apu?…”

And Apu woke up to a being of light….

Although it was dark all around…..this being shimmered and radiated like nothing he had ever seen before..

And as he focused his eye sight, he noticed that this being…

Had the head of an elephant…

And the body of a human being…

…with a large belly!..

Ganesha himself had come to visit Apu.

“What are you doing here Apu? You should be in the jungle!”, exclaimed Ganesha.

“Me? jungle?…

But I’m just a village elephant..

I’ve been here all my life (almost)”, replied Apu.

“Apu, I can sense your energy..

You crave to be wild, free and independent right?”, asked Ganesha.

Apu nodded his head in agreement…

“So what’s stopping you Apu?”…

Apu, pointed out at the chains…

And just as he said that?..

Ganesha started laughing out loud!…

So loud that the winds started picking up…

There was a loud thunder in the sky…

And the very ground below him started to rumble a bit…

“Let me let you in on a secret Apu”, whispered Ganesha…

Apu leaned in to listen..

“You are stronger than you can ever begin to imagine…

You are stronger than all the animals in the kingdom..

Including the Lion, The Wild Bull and the Hippopotamus…”

“Really?”, Apu replied….

“But how come these shackles are still controlling me?”…

Ganesha asked him…

“Apu…when was the last time you really tried?”...

Apu thought about this…

“Hmmm…

Hmmmmmm…

About 10 years back…

But no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t break free!..

And I got hurt and I started bleeding…

And I got punished and I was bruised…

And I was so sad…”

“Hold on right there Apu!”, Ganesha replied.

“Back then, you were a baby elephant…

And now?

You’re a 5,000 kilo elephant with legs that can destroy an entire tree!…

Remember this..

Never let you past, hold you back from what you are truly meant to do or be!

Just because you tried and failed in the past..

It doesn’t mean that you will fail again…does it?”

Apu was a bit surprised and amazed by these empowering thoughts..

Because he had never considered it.

“Apu, never let someone’s opinion of you determine your reality…

If you can dream it, which I know you have, then you can do it too!..

Tell me Apu..

What do you really want?”..

“Ganesha…I want to be free..

I want to meet my parents (I don’t know if they’re still alive)

I want to roam in the wild jungles and be with other wild elephants…”, exclaimed Apu sadly.

“Apu, if you can dream it….you can do it.

I want you to break from your negative experiences and the memories that are no longer serving you..

I’m now going to infuse your energy body with my intelligence, my determination, my abundance mindset, and the power of my love for my parents – Shiva and Shakti.

This will have the effect of awakening your Kundalini and activating all 7 chakras in your body..

And once that happens?..

You won’t be Apu anymore..”

“Who will I be then?”, asked Apu, a bit eagerly.

You will be called Apu Raja the Mighty, son of Sarvasidhanta and heir to the throne of the jungle.

“Are you ready Apu?”

Apu trembled a bit, but was ready for this.

And so it happened…

Apu experienced a jolt of energy from within…

And he shook and shuddered…

And he felt his energy body getting rid of all the memories, emotions, feelings and pain that were holding him down..

And once that was done?

He felt so much more light, abundant and ready..

Then Ganesha proclaimed…

“Apu, I’ve done what I need to.

It’s your turn now..

Remember..

YOU need to take this decision for yourself.

Once you break these shackles and enter the forest, life won’t be the same again..

Yes, you will experience the freedom and abundance of the forest..

But along with that, you’ll have to embrace the uncertainty and challenges that accompany it too.

You’ll have to find you own food…

You’ll have to defend yourself from predators and other wild animals..

You’ll have to be prepared to learn the ways of the jungle.

(because at the moment, you’re a domesticated elephant)

Are you prepared for this?..

Think deeply and mindfully”…

And Apu replied…

“I’m ready to accept my destiny as a wild elephant Ganesha”.

“Then so be it, so it is”, whispered Ganesha.

And with a puff, Ganesha dissolved into the thin air.

And then with all his might?…

Apu attempted one more time to break free from the shackles that had been holding him down for so many years…

And clank!…

Without much effort at all…he broke free.

“Wow, that’s it?”, Apu thought…

And then,

Just as the sun was just about to rise at dawn…

He strolled casually into the forest…

As a wild elephant…

never to return back again.

And legend has it?…

That he met his parents, found a wife and started his own little family…

And had many baby elephants…

And they lived happily ever after.

There are a couple of things we can take away from this story, Action Tribe..

Firstly, you are stronger than you know.

Most of us are walking around looking at the shadow that we cast, not realizing what a beautiful, large, radiant and colorful aura we have..

Don’t let you past failures, disappointments or challenges hold you back from trying once again because it takes time, it takes patience and it takes consistent action.

Even the best in the world have experienced numerous failures, but they didn’t let those failures define who they were.

Another take away is that your childhood has played a crucial role in shaping who you are…

When you were young, you were like a sponge and your brain was vibrating at Delta and Gama, meaning that you were very receptive to new ideas, models and concepts…

And very soon, those ideas became your natural programming.

And even till day, those programs are playing at the back of your mind…..

without you even knowing it!

And just like Apu felt he couldn’t let go of his shackles?..

What is that 1 thing you feel that you cannot overcome?..

Is it finances?..

Is it health?…….

Is it a relationship that you want to make or heal?…

It is possible to transform the programs and patterns that are no longer serving you by assessing and healing your stuck and blocked chakras…

But very often we let the complexity of the wisdom of the Chakras to hold us back from actually taking that small action and experiencing a shift.

If you’d like to find out if one or more of your chakras are blocked, and what you can do about it, then I’d love to support you personally.

I’m offering a few 1:1 Chakra clarity calls this week and next…

Morry Zelcovitch faced many challenges since childhood, which included thousands of voices in his head, severe depression and being unbelievably accident prone.

He first noticed the effects that sounds and tones had on his own mental state well over 20 years ago. This led to a decade long journey deep into the study of brainwave entrainment.

Not satisfied with the minor results he experienced, he sought out the world’s foremost brainwave entrainment expert and, after extensive study and training, became one of the few Certified Brainwave Entrainment Engineers in the world.

He then used brainwave entrainment to overcome his depression and the voices in his head.

His mission? To help others improve the quality of their lives without the use of dangerous and habit-forming drugs.

Inspirational quote – Happiness is a choice, so choose to be happy.

On challenges:

“Every thought we think is creating our future.” Louise Hay

Action Tribe, take a moment to think about that one challenge or difficulty that you have in your life right now.

Chances are, that if you’re listening to this episode right now?

Then you might be looking for ways and methods to overcome your challenge right now….

Maybe you’re going through a relationship issue…

or a financial difficulty or even a major health issue….

Be aware of the dominant though that you’re holding in your mind on a regular basis…

Thoughts are things…

And if you think about something loooo00000OOOOO enough?

Then it will surely manifest into something real.

So if you want a bright and abundant future?..

Then hold positive, empowering and high vibrational thoughts in your mind because as the saying goes..

Every thought we think is creating our future.

On purpose:

Today’s discussion on brainwave entrainment confirms that you have something powerful in between your ears…

And that you can be, do and have so much more..

It’s time to..

Change your brain frequency, transform your emotions and start attracting experiences, people and things into your life..

Because just as the author James Allen once wrote..

“Mind is the master power that moulds and makes,

and man is mind, and evermore he takes the tool of thought, and, shaping what he wills,

brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills.

He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass.

Environment is but his looking-glass.”

Wisdom Round:

Best piece of advice: Get out of yourself. Stop complaining and whining! 🙂

Mind To Matter Written By Dawson Church | Episode 311

Do you want to learn about the astonishing science behind how your brain creates material reality?…

You’re in for a treat today because I’m going to read out an excerpt from an amazing book called Mind To Matter written by Dawson Church, a gifted and kind person.

“The idea that “thoughts become things” has become a meme in popular culture. It’s held as a firm proposition in metaphysics, and some spiritual teachers ascribe infinite powers to the mind.

But are these claims scientifically accurate? What does the scientific evidence tell us about the scope of the human mind to transform thoughts into reality?

New research and new discoveries in epigenetics, neuroscience, electromagnetism, psychology, cymatics (the study of wave phenomena), public health, and quantum physics are demonstrating that thoughts can indeed be profoundly creative.

In Mind to Matter, award-winning author Dawson Church examines the scientific facts and reviews the studies that show, step by step, exactly how our minds create material form. As each piece of the puzzle falls into place, the science turns out to be even more astonishing than the metaphysics.

Throughout the book, Church shares illuminating case histories – up-close, authentic personal accounts of people who had experiences of turning mind into matter.

Drawn from the worlds of medicine, sports, business, healing, art, and scientific discovery, these stories run the gamut from profound to inspiring to heart-wrenching. Meticulously researched evidence is presented in highly relatable form, using engaging, understandable, nontechnical analogies.”

About the author:

Dawson Church, PhD, is an award-winning author whose best-selling book, The Genie in Your Genes, has been hailed as a breakthrough in the field of epigenetics.

Dawson has published numerous scientific papers, with a focus on the remarkable self-healing mechanisms now emerging at the intersection of emotion and gene expression.

He applies these breakthroughs to health and athletic performance through EFTUniverse.com, which is one of the largest alternative medicine sites on the web.

Dawson was educated at Baylor University and Holos University, where he earned his doctorate under the tuition of Harvard-trained neurosurgeon Norm Shealy, MD, PhD, with whom he co-authored Soul Medicine: Awakening Your Inner Blueprint for Abundant Health and Energy.

7 Life Lessons I’ve Learned After Doing 300 Podcast Episodes! (Part 1) | Episode 307

In today’s session, I’m going to reveal..

7 key realizations that I’ve had after doing 300 interviews and receiving close to 2.8 million downloads.

These are life lessons that I’ve collected along the way..

And I’m sure that if you apply them in your life, you will see massive shifts as well..

But before that, let’s me give a shout out to Vanessa who wrote us this beautiful iTunes review, which states…

“I discovered this podcast when I was living in France. While I was having an amazing time living in a different culture, I often felt a little lonely and disconnected, and listening to AJ’s podcast became a regular thing that helped to lift my mood and inspire me.

I absolutely love the way the podcast is structured, and the way that AJ paraphrases to make sure that information is very clear.

The guests are fantastic, and I always look forward to next episode. I recommend this to everyone. Thanks AJ!”

Thanks for writing this amazing review Vanessa!

Action tribe, if you’d like me to read out your review too, then take a minute and share your thoughts in the form of an iTunes review.

The link you need is mysevenchakras.com/review

So back to the episode at hand…

I’m going to share with you 7 key learnings from doing 300 podcast episodes..

You know, it’s been quite a journey…

When I started this journey?

I never imagined that we would even reach 100,000 downloads..

And yet, as I speak with you today, we’re going to cross 3 million downloads pretty soon.

None of this would be possible without the support, love and listenership of YOU – Action tribe..

You are the heart and soul of our movement.

It’s definitely not been a smooth ride..

There have been many ups and downs..

Many bumps along the way, as well as, many learnings that I hope to pass on to you on today’s session..

I don’t want this to be a one way dialogue, so if you have a question, comment or realization based on something I say today, then reach out to me, alright?

(My email is aj [at] mysevenchakras.com)

So..

Learning number 1 is…

1) Do things that nourish your soul:

So what do I really mean by this?..

We’re learning more and more that we’re not just our physical bodies..

We’re beings made out of energy.

And on that energetic blueprint is formed our physical body.

Just like we need food and water to nourish our physical body?

We crave life experiences to nourish our spirit and enjoy our presence on Earth.

Starting this podcast has made me ponder about the experiences that really make me come alive..

Experiences that light up my soul, and experiences that delight me.

There are many activities that nourish my soul, and I’d like to speak about three over here, which are Engaging conversations, personal growth and impact.

Engaging conversations with friends over interviewing guests..

If you’ve been a regular listener of my show, you may have noticed a change in my approach to conducting interviews..

These days?..

I’m all about bringing on guests who I’d love to be friends with.

Guests who want to add value, share ideas and genuinely support our movement..

Our interviews these days are filled with smiles, laughter and casual back and forths.

When someone asks me, “AJ, do you have a process for selecting guests?”…

I say that it’s a very intuitive process, but the questions I always ask myself is…

“Is this someone who I could be myself with?”

“Is this someone who I could be friends with?”

“Is this someone who I could have fun, engaging conversation with?”

Does that make sense?..

2. Personal growth..

Whenever I engage in an activity, especially these days, I ask myself,

“How can this help me improve my skills”

Whether it is my communication skills, ability to articulate an idea or just be comfortable on screen.

It’s easy to get stuck in a routine of doing things..

So from time to time?

It’s important to take a few steps back and reassess how your activity is contributing to your personal growth and development.

To give you an example of this…

Most of you know that I initially started my podcast by doing pre-recorded audio interviews..

Sometime towards the end of last year?

I realized that I wasn’t pushing my comfort zone enough, which ultimately helps with personal growth..

And that’s why I made a change.

I converted my audio podcast into a live video series!

Many of you join us for our weekly recording sessions on Facebook.

It’s been amazing!

Live is so much more fun because I’m able to connect with both my guest and my listeners on a whole new level.

And it’s a ton a fun, which is why we’re going to keep going with this..

Now the third activity that nourishes my soul is the ability to have an impact on people around the globe.

As I speak into this microphone?..

I’m seeing that in just the last 6 months, we’ve had listeners downloading our episodes from literally every continent on the planet

(except for Antarctica) 🙂

And I don’t take this attention lightly.

I’m always thinking of ways and methods by which I can inspire, motivate and enhance the quality of YOUR life.

And when I speak into this mic?

I don’t speak to ALL of you (collectively).

I speak….

to each of you….

individually.

So I thank you for giving me your attention and focus.

2. Follow your own path, even if that path is a long, winding road.

What I mean by this is…

If you’ve chosen the path of being a creator, an entrepreneur or a business person, then know that this path is not a straight line.

Yes, people might lead you to believe that…

But the truth is that this path is a long, winding road, filled with life lessons, challenges, opportunities, big wins and realizations.

But all of it is worth it..

And the reason for this is that it’s not only what you achieve in this process but more importantly,

it is about who YOU become.

I’m the son of an entrepreneur..

When I was growing up, I never saw my Dad reporting to a supervisor or a manager..

He had the independence to set his schedule, define his vision and create a plan to achieve it.

I looked up to him.

And deep down?..

I too wanted to live the life of an entrepreneur.

And life has a way of giving you what you want at a soul level…

Right?..

But..

Are you willing to accept the whole package or do you only want the easy part?..

If you’re on the verge of jumping in, then brace yourself for the adventure of a lifetime.

3. Use your circumstances and your childhood memories to your advantage:

Life has a way of bringing you back a full circle..

When you’re starting a new venture, especially one like a podcast where you have to express your voice?..

It’s hard to find your own voice, especially when the noise outside wants you to conform to the standard and the status quo..

So what did I do?..

I looked within, and tried to introspect about my life so far…

And here’s what I realized…

I was interested in starting a podcast about energy and ancient wisdom..

but all throughout my life, the universe was trying to nudge me towards this path.

My Dad is a Hindu (or more appropriately, Santan Dharmic)..

My Mom is a christian (Christian)..

and spend time with a community of Buddhists.

So growing up,

I was never forced or pressured to follow a certain set of laws, read specific books or even adhere to a set of belief systems.

The only religion that was practiced at my home was love..

This atmosphere allowed me to tap into my curiosity and explore Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism

(and in the process discover the similarities and differences).

I probably should do an entire episode on this but the point I’m trying to make here is that my liberal and open upbringing allowed me to have a broad perspective…

and an understanding of both Abrahamic and Dharmic religions, which provided me the mental platform to start my podcast.

Does that make sense?..

Also, when I was a kid, my dad once bought my sister and I, a computer along with a simple microphone…

I was so fascinated with this microphone and the audio software called Audacity that I would spend hours recording my voice, playing with different accents, using different tools and settings to adjust my voice…

and generally having fun!

Again, this playing with my voice and the microphone, in a way, prepared me for the podcast that I was destined to start..

So I encourage you to look at your life circumstances and revisit your childhood memories..

because there you might find clues about what you might like to pursue and focus on.

Alright action tribe, that’s all the time we have for today!

We covered points 3 learnings on today’s episode…

I was hoping to cover all 7 points on today’s episode, but I couldn’t help but go deeper because of which we’ll need another episode to touch on points 4,5,6 and 7.

Once again…

The learnings we discussed today were…

Do things to nourish your soul..
Follow your own path, even if that path is a long, winding road..
Use your circumstances and your childhood memories to your advantage..

If you enjoyed listening to this episode, then write in to me with your thoughts, ideas, observations and impressions.

My email is aj at mysevenchakras.com

And the other thing is that we’re planning to grow our movement and take to a whole new level, so if you’re an expert in social media, growth, SEO, graphic design or web design and you’d like to be part of our movement, then reach out!

(You know my email from above)

And finally, if you’d like to donate to our movement, then please consider doing so..

Producing a thrice weekly podcast like this is both time and resource intensive, and you can make a huge difference. 🙂

Besides, you transaction is safe and completely secure.
