SLP358 - When the Student is Ready, the Teacher Appears

I’m reminded of the time my son was very young and was confident he could drive – and park – my car while we were heading to the building where I officed at the time.

Let’s just say we both learned a valuable lesson that day…

But what does it mean, “When the student is ready, the teacher appears?”

That’s exactly what we’re unpacking in this week’s podcast episode.

Feature Presentation: 

Even though my son was enthusiastic, he was not mature or prepared for the level of responsibility I chose to impart to him that particular day.

As neither are we sometimes.

We even complain and fuss about our opportunities have not presented themselves to us, but I disagree…

When you’re ready, what you’re waiting for begins to show up! It’s not that the opportunities aren’t there, it’s that you’re not ready.

What knowledge do you need to obtain? What relationships do you need to form (or release)? What is broken in your life that needs to be fixed?

When these are ready, so are we. Therefore, when the student is ready, they see the teacher (and the reward) waiting for them.

Deal with your attitudes, limiting beliefs, unresolved issues, and personal growth, so not only can you handle what’s waiting, but you’re able to run with it and do it well.

What is it in your life you need to be ready for?

And what do you need to do to make ready for it?
