Fire in The BellyHow to be Free - Interview with Dr John Demartini
In this episode, Pete speaks to Dr John Demartini, a teacher and speaker who strives to create his own box and his own world to have true freedom in life.
They talk about values, living authentically, fulfilment and much more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Fire in the belly to John means someone who is inspired and enthused to pursue something meaningful to them. Having fire in the belly means you will do what it takes to achieve what is important to you.
- Many people compare themselves to others and act like someone they are not. This means what they are committed to and what they want from life is clouded.
- Each of us have a set of values that we believe in. When we are living in alignment with these that is when we are happiest and feel most inspired.
- John delegates everything he can, so then he can have no distractions and just teach like he wants and needs to. He is doing the tasks he truly values. Surround yourself with people who are experts in the things that you find weigh you down or devalue you, then they can take care of those tasks for you.
- Inspiration and motivation are two separate things. If you have to try and motivate people that means they are not inspired, you are trying to create extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation is where you want to be and this comes from within.
- John uses all possible avenues to learn, from lectures to reading. He is constantly wanting to learn, having a broader perspective is what makes us human.
- Mastery comes from celebrating all parts of your life, it doesn’t come from getting rid of half of yourself. You will never love yourself this way and it is a waste of your time.
