Obstacles, by Dr. Ogi Ressel

Warm hellos to everyone!

I just finished Module I in Niagara Falls and I have to tell you that the feeling
in the room was electric! The look in everyone's eyes spoke volumes: They
were amazed, floored, flabbergasted, and they loved what they saw and heard!
Christie summed it up best when she said: "they look like deer in headlights!"
Awesome!

Everyone also realized that in order to grow, one need to change.....and change
is often thought of as a very scary thing. It does not need to be.

Listen...
"You measure the size of your accomplishment by the obstacles you had to
overcome to reach it."

Someone once said; "The elevator to success is out of order. You'll have to
use the stairs - one step at a time."

In our insane ready-to-wear, instant-on, oven-ready, etc., pace, we forget
that instant success is a rarity. It usually follows hard w.o.r.k. I believe
that in order for a chiropractor to be at the top, there are certain steps
which must be taken.
These cannot be rushed as they gradually mold you into a great doctor.
That is one of the reasons why locum doctors, hired so you can take a
vacation, invariably lower your practice and it then takes you months to
get back where to you have been.
The reason is simple; although the locum has the technical ability, he/she
has not matured into your position.

I mention in my Program, that in order for you to be a 500/week doctor,
you must have mentally and spiritually already "arrived" long before you
get there.
Your heart and mind gradually grow and change so that you are slowly able
to help increasing numbers of people - Innate will never send you more than
you can handle in your present state of Being. So,...in order to help more
people you must change.
You must shed those habits and mannerisms, and philosophy which has
stopped you from expanding.

...And that is not an instant-on process. ...and it may require periods of
uncertainty, fear, confusion, and self-doubt. And that's totally Ok - most
of us only grow when we have a crisis. So...go out there and have yourself
a crisis! You'll be a much better person for it!

It has been said that the measure of a Man is by the size of shoes he wears.
You need to change your shoes regularly - a bigger size each time!

Warmest wishes to all,
