- I’ve heard talk about limiting beliefs before reading this book, but it hadn’t occurred to me that a limiting belief could be about something external to yourself. I always thought of them as things like, “I’m not smart enough,” “the people who can do that are naturally gifted (and I’m not),” and the like, but the book talks about the need to eat lots of meat as a limiting believe. It’s not about you but how to live a healthy life. The limit applies to the thinker though. It limits the level of health they can achieve.
kaizen
The Japanese idea of constant, gradual improvement. This is what I want to aspire to.
Link to original- How does kaizen relate to the idea from meditation that you should stop waiting for what’s next and consider that what you’re experiencing now may be it? Is meditation talking about being OK with things in the moment but kaizen is talking about improvement on a stretched out time scale? Can the two co-exist?
