"Getting the goal of goals"
During the past 5 years I’ve asked 1000’s of people the same questions, namely: what do you ultimately want? The answer to this question is perhaps the most important thing for you to know. Countless lives have been wasted with unnecessary stress and suffering as a direct consequence of people failing to make their number one goal their number one priority.
Excitingly, I’ve noticed a trend in the answers I’ve been given. That is, irrespective of nationality, religion, education, social class, culture, wealth or health, everyone has ultimately wanted the same thing: a combination of happiness and peace (I affectionately call is happeaceness!). What’s more, they don’t just want fleeting experiences of it, but instead, they want endless happiness and permanent peace. In other words, the goal of goals (i.e. why people want what they want) appears to be to enjoy true happeaceness!
So how can you get the goal of goals? Simply by making it your number one priority! The moment you prioritise having peace over having problems, you experience it. To understand this, considerhow you might be postponing your own peace by making other things more important. For example, is feeling hurt, sad or angry about things in your past more important than enjoying a peaceful present? Is having money more important than having peace? Or would you rather be right in an argument than be at peace right now?
Prioritising your peace requires you to take your attention away from your perceived ‘problems’ and instead place it on the still silent space that exists in every moment. (I teach practical ways of doing this at my workshops and retreats!) You will find the natural by-product of putting your attention on that which is infinitely still and silent, is, yes, you guessed it, infinite peace!
I appreciate that this may sound rather simplistic, but if you apply it by no longer postponing your ‘happeaceness’ until your body or life is exactly how you think it should be, you will notice that you immediately get what you’ve been wanting your entire life: the goal of goals – happeaceness!!!
Feedback from our most recent retreat
I ran a Mind Detox retreat with my team in the Scottish Borders during September. 100% of the retreat participants said it ‘exceeded their expectations’ and was ‘excellent value for money’. Below are some of the comments they wrote on their feedback forms:
“I now feel free, alive and excited about experiencing every moment within a stillness I could never have imagined possible. Thank you for reconnecting me with my life.”
“It genuinely worked. It was simple and it was fun. Anyone with a mind should go on this retreat and discover what a fantastic person they are, right now!”
“Everyone should take a week out of their life to experience this. You’ve seen the film, ‘It’s a wonderful life’, well after this week you will absolutely know it’s a wonderful world.”
“The Mind Detox retreat should be compulsory. I am free to live the life I deserve. This retreat is the best decision I have made in my life – please make it yours.”
“It is unbelievable: it will change your life in so many positive ways. I have not spent a more peaceful week in my life.”
“I came on the retreat mainly to learn, but what I got was far more. It is so fulfilling finding the peace that was always there.”
“If you think you are having problems, then come on this retreat and the team will guide you through a simple process whereby you can learn to let go and enjoy the flow of life. Be open, allow it to happen, and it will.”
“I’ve learnt so much and found the peace I didn’t know I was looking for.”
“If you’re thinking about a Mind Detox Retreat, this is the one. A truly life-changing experience. Peace of mind, total freedom, it’s all waiting for you.”
“The weeds that once suffocated the flower inside me have now gone and I feel free to grow. I am experiencing an inner stillness that I could never have imagined possible!”
“The whole experience was wonderful. No words can even begin to describe the retreat. I just urge you to come and find out for yourself how amazing life can be.”
