Always so exciting George not just for me having been part of this for two years but for all the new students who I know will benefit so so much from your wisdom and psychology!! Thanks Geoff 🙏🏾🙏🏼
George, I recently competed in the Olympic Games and came back home with a bronze medal. I have read your books and I cannot thank you enough for sharing with us all the experiences as well as ideas in your books. Your idea of being in the “eye of the hurricane” helped me tremendously, pairing that with my ability to tap into the divinity within (I am a Christian) made the difference for me in competition. I hope you get to see this just for me to say thank you.
Hearing about George during the Edmonton Oilers playoff run has led me to read his latest book and catching his teachings on RU-vid. It has changed my life and given me concepts to build on and stay focused on the journey to express the masterpiece within. Thanks George!
Saying yes to life and generating the hope is a wonderful way to live. Thanks for being in our corner George and your service to others is a true gift for life. Congrats on your 200th episode, remarkable.
Oh my goodness, I did not know about your involvement with the Edmonton Oilers and I'm from Alberta. Thank's for working with our team, so glad to have you in their corner. Sure hope you enjoyed your time with them and checking out the city too.
Implicit or non-declarative learning. I was trying to remember that term from when we last spoke George. But what I was seeking was already seeking me. Give thanks.
George, that was a great segment. What you share in ~four minutes can be a lifetime gift. I especially appreciate the teaching of “act as if.” It’s a powerful notion to act on. Thanks for all you do.
I watched the documentary three years ago and today, discovering your importance, I have the sensation that the most important things are in the backgrounds
That is such helpful insight. I had not made the connection on judging and how it acts to distance or separate us from others. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Powerful reminder! It’s both empowering and frankly a bit scary to realize how much agency we have. Makes me reflect also on a definition of harm as “taking what is not offered”.
What a thoughtful notion on the concept of independence. Thanks for sharing and it’s good to be hearing from your channel again. Have a great Independence Day.
Thank you for so much Goerge, it's amazing! And it's really easy to forget the REAL reason we started to do something, but messages like this one, helps us to remember that there's always an opportunity to start over again.
George, thank you for this. The clarity in which you speak really allows for a wide range of audiences to digest and apply your perspective to their own lives!
Sifu, this video comes at such a good time for me as I just lost my older sister yesterday. Your words remind me of what you spoke about in the mindful athlete about feeding our wolf hinderances. For me, often it’s doubt and the feeling of inadequacy. But as you said, the more we feed the negative wolf, the more freely it roams and the less aware we become of it and it ruins our lives and trips us up. As we know, increased awareness brings fourth increased consciousness and increased consciousness brings increased awareness. The more conscious we become of the wolf we feed, the more we can shift the mind with AOB and focusing on what’s in front of us in that very moment. I’ve gotta get involved with the mindful athlete course sifu. Can I find details on your website?
So sorry to hear about your loss, @nilestyle42. It's Greg from George's Team, checking comments while he's on the road with a client. I'll pass on your message. And you can find out more about The Mindful Athlete Course at George's website at: georgemumford.com/the-mindful-athlete-course/. Hope to see you around!
