Can You Teach A Cat to Bark?

You could spend your life trying to teach a cat how to bark.

You won't succeed - so why try?

Because you don't notice that this is what you are doing. If you did notice, you'd laugh and stop doing it immediately. 

Of course, I don't literally mean it's about trying to make cats bark - it's about you trying to be something you are not.

It starts simply with "I must sit up straight."

How many times in the past have you tried to do that? How many times in the future are you going to keep trying to improve on you? Like trying to make a cat bark.

"Trying is only emphasising the thing we already know," the old man said.

The point is – who says you are wrong to begin with?

It's you trying to make your Self conform to a self-image that you carry around in your mind. Is it real? Does it even exist?

It does exist, but only just.

It's your image of you, not the real you. It's a fairy tale you tell about your Self – how you should be, what you should do. It exists in your mind, but nowhere else. You can't show it to anyone, or take a photo of it. It's a fragile, very empty idea that gives you nothing but grief. 

Are you sure you want to keep it?

At ATSuccess, we explore an alternative way.

You don't need to know the right thing – you need to know the real thing. What is the real thing? The real thing is what you are actually doing. Instead of focusing on the future, start focusing on the present. 

Become aware, wake up to your actual Self.

Maybe you are living in a fantasy about what it means to an Alexscovery teacher in our modern world.

At ATSuccess – during your coaching sessions with me – that is our starting point. You learn about what you are doing, not what you need to be doing.

Instead of spending your life looking for solutions and even more fairy tales, start by just knowing more about what you are doing…

How is your practice working? 

What do your students say? Have you ever asked, like – SERIOUSLY?

You can have fun discovering the truth.

And as you discover the truth about you, a strange thing happens.

The right thing does itself. It just appears - it happens.

This way is Nature's plan, and it works so much better than any other way. I suggest you stop trying to make cats bark and come to ATSuccess to find out what you are doing.

ATSuccess is about self-discovery – and on the way, all your pains and discomforts begin to fade away - without really trying.

One day – I promise – I will start coaching again. And when I do it will be exclusive, small and focused. Are you interested? Write back and let me know.
