How to Learn: Develop Shoshin, AKA "Beginner's Mind"

[@pyschologygeek]

Our values define our beliefs, while our beliefs determine our reality. We usually expect what we believe not what actually is and that's the reason we get hurt when our expectations are not fulfilled. Be careful with what you believe, Beliefs can change everything.

The story of gold and gold mine is very impactful. Thanks for sharing!

[@ConorNeill]

My pleasure!

[@ExJWCriticalThinker]

Excellent information! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@ConorNeill]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MattCrump4U]

Thank you, Conor. I believe that 2020 is a (or can be) a year of clarity. The way to find opportunities that may not look like opportunities come from accountability and relationships where iron sharpens iron. Sometimes we don't see things clearly, even though we think we do. I didn't want or think I needed glasses when I was told I had to get them. Then I put them on. I realized that I wasn't seeing things the way I thought I was or even could, but because of others and a little nudge, I can see clearly again. May we have people in our lives that help us to see clearly! I appreciate your video reminder.

I love the point on having lunch with the crazy person once a month, eventually leading you to find that one genius. After all, as it's said there's a fine line between the two

[@PracticalInspiration]

@@ConorNeill Most Definitely!

[@muhammedhalava6591]

Thanks Conor and I agree with you and in my opinion preparing for opportunity will come from the education and luck

[@JANDEJOEP]

When I tackle a problem, I start with the so called 'black-box approach', which I have learned myself before encountering the definition. Instead of taking the know path by looking at known solutions to the specific problem, I start with what I have (or the abundance of something), and what I want to achieve (the goal). By doing so I throw away all known 'solutions' from the start. Often the end result is much simpler than the known solution. So this approach really helps me to stay open-minded.

Love this! Funnily enough I'm on the verge of a potential opportunity that could be a game changer and is left-field. The Universe wanted me to see this video as a sign the opportunity is the one for me :)

[@walidbouguima2771]

[@craigashworth1783]

[@bobvansand6346]

Thanks! Keep safe please!

[@SunilPatel-fv5qq]

I am very luck to click on "how to start a speech", learned a lot from ur video's. . . . Sir, u remind me of "Daft Punk - Giorgio by Moroder " :)

[@tedt6432]

Hi Conor, thanks for sharing . I’m not sure if I’ll get your words correctly, if I did “Hsiao-Hsien “ in Chinese means “be careful” or “be aware “ .

The ego needed to hear this.

[@Daniel-cp3jw]

A simple thatk you Conor...

[@avirajsingh567]

Hi Conor, in hindu culture there is a drawing of three gods, on the right of the drawing there is goddess Saraswati ji (goddess of knowledge) in the middle there is goddess Laxmi ji (goddess of money wealth) and on the left there is god Ganesh ji (the god to which Hindus worship when they are going to start any new thing).

[@avirajsingh567]

So if we will see observe this drawing then we can understand that first we should study the thing or the game (goddess of knowledge) , then we should study how to make money out of it (goddess of wealth) and then the last step is to start(god of beginning).

[@avirajsingh567]

Is this is correct according to you Conor.

[@franramos_franbuesa]

To me there is a big paradox when handling this issue because: being open = living concentrated, in the present, without fear. It is the "I don't know-I am not sure" attitude that leads here, but, in this state/mindset, how is it even possible to spot/recognize gold mines or the right path? Without betting/being determined about things, aren't they not more the product of just luck?...

[@franramos_franbuesa]

@@ConorNeill Definitely! So...it seems a matter of remaining humble, but taking steps forward, paying attention to our beliefs...many things bring me to this 'flowing in openess without ego' lately but, hey, I do not know for sure, I am learning 👍

[@franramos_franbuesa]

@@ConorNeill( btw, I used to look for answers in that place you enter to at the beginning of the video, looks like La Vinya del Señor, divine wine. Is it still there?)

[@nasrykabore7857]

Thanks that's all

[@qinxin9458]

小心 的意思！ ：）

[@ConorNeill]

I'm sure it is wise... will need to learn some language skills!

[@ZenAndPsychedelicHealingCenter]

This has almost nothing to do with Beginner's Mind. It's just appropriation and not very well done frankly.
