Lessons Learned:
The book finished with how to master the commonplace. If we can learn to love the plateau, master the five keys, and utilize all the tools that Leonard has given us then we can apply it to our daily lives and master each and every day throughout our life-long journey.
"Ultimately nothing in this life is 'commonplace,' nothing is 'in between.' The threads that join your every act, your every thought, are infinite. All paths of mastery eventually merge."
This week we also discussed Franklin Coveys 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Although all seven habits are incredible and equally important to build upon one another, my favorite is the final step: sharpen the saw. If we put in all of the work to achieve our success and goals, but do not continue to sharpen the saw, it has all been somewhat pointless. I love the four dimensions of sharpening the saw including our physical, spiritual, mental, and social/emotional dimensions. In order to continually progress we must repeat these cycles and principles we have learned over and over, and that is what sharpening the saw means to me. I must continually take care of my mind, body and spirit to grow stronger, better and to keep my progression moving forward.
