How ZORO can help you achieve BIG results?
Whatdoes it mean by Zoro? In the movie, “The Mask of Zoro,” if you remember howit begins there is a scene where the guy is struggling, frustrated and notbeing able to get the goal he likes where he gets to the point that he startsdrinking, really just doling himself out of life and that’s the moment when hecrosses paths with his teacher. His teacher takes him back to the cave and inthe cave he draws a circle on the ground and he says, “Nothing in your lifematters unless it’s inside this circle.”
Forthe beginning part of this film they teach him how to fight, how to do allthese things, everything exists within the circle. Now what’s interesting there’sa concept because if you remember what Zoro stands for, he’s this wild,amazing man who fights off all the villains, does all amazing things, greatwith women and all other amazing stuffs. But it didn’t start that way. How didthey take him from a guy struggling, depressed and frustrated with life tosomeone who’s mastering the skills to take on the bad guys, defend the innocentand be so great with women and it all starts with this whole little, tinycircle concept?
It’sthe ability for him to focus only on the small manageable, controllable taskswithin the circle and mastering them. How does this relate to you and yourgoals? So many people in the beginning, especially young people, we getexcited, we get ambition, we have huge goals that we want to accomplish. Youstart hearing stuff like instead of trying to make a billion dollars, trying tochange a billion lives which is ambitious and huge and great to work towardsthat it’s very altruistic and amazing. At the same time, for most young people,according to research and science, if they start off with such a big goal inthe beginning it’s exciting and you start to work towards it, starts to makeprogress and get a momentum, then a couple things don’t work and then it startsto feel as if you’re so far away from the peak of this mountain that it startsto feel it’s not even worth continuing the climb. What’s fascinating is people start to give up.I remember a phrase, “people died in their thirties but don’t bury until theireighties.” What does that mean?
Whatit means is that people give up on their dreams, their goals and desiressomewhere in their 30s and then just kind of exists through the rest of theirlife because the huge dream they’re going after seems like they’re not gettingany or close to it by the age of 30 so they stopped trying.
Iwant to prevent that from happening from you.
Howdo we prevent it? Start small. Start just with a little circle of what you cancontrol and start building the confidence and the certainty through experiencethat you can absolutely make progress every single day.
