Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 45 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom.

Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life (Part 2)

Thank you for joining us for our 7 day a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. By consuming these daily wisdom nuggets, you will digest the principles needed to help you in your quest to become healthy, wealthy, and wise as we trek through life together.  This is Day 45 of our Trek, and for the next few days we will continue our Trek to look at how changing our thinking can dramatically change our lives.

We are recording our podcast from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina.  The client workload and activities should be consistently busy this week.  It will be a good week to spend indoors during the day as the temperatures in North Carolina are anticipated to be above 95° for the next two weeks. It certainly has been warm this summer.

We are continuing a several day Trek where we will stop at twelve waypoints or rest areas along our trail. When hiking long distances (as our life trek is), it is always good to plan in advance where your rest stops or waypoints will be.  This will help to measure your progress and make sure that you do not get off the trail.

At each waypoint along our Trek this week, we will have the occasion to reflect on and change how we think. By changing our thinking, these waypoints will also allow us to change our lives in a positive way.

Yesterday we reflected on the first waypoint which was Cultivating Big-Picture Thinking.  It followed two days when we looked at the science and results of big picture thinking. If you missed any of the past three days of podcasts, please go back and listen to them, or read our daily journal entries. This will give you the foundation for this week’s Trek.

As we ended our podcast yesterday, I asked you to reflect on the question, “Am I thinking beyond myself and my world so that I process ideas with a holistic perspective?”

Did you take time to think about how you would answer this question?  To grow in wisdom each day, we should be asking ourselves the difficult questions that cause us to reflect on our lives so that we can expand our world. It is then we will have the capability to impact others to a greater capacity.

It’s time to break camp now and head towards the next waypoint or rest stop.  As we head down the trail today, let us focus on what we learn at each stop and think creatively on how this will help us to live abundantly in all areas as we are creating a living legacy.

Wise and successful people practice certain thinking habits, and in order for you to become wise and successful, you need to entrench these same thinking habits into you mind.

2. Engage in Focused Thinking

Focused thinking allows you to think clearly about a problem. This skill helps you to direct energy toward a specific objective, bring more clarity to issues, and take ideas to the next level. When engaging in focused thinking, you should select challenges or areas that are most likely to have the greatest impact.

Here are five ways that you can improve your focused thinking:

• Eliminate distractions and focus on areas that will provide the greatest impact.
• Devote time to focused thinking. Although multi-tasking is a popular word in today’s world, it is not conducive to focused thinking. New evidence has shown that we really cannot multitask and, for most people, working on multiple tasks at a time is really counterproductive.
• Keep items of focus in view. You must concentrate on things that matter. You must keep the important items of focus in front of you.
• Set milestones. When you set clear objectives, it is easy for the mind to focus.
• Question your progress. Periodically monitor whether you have made progress. Progress is the best measure of whether your focused thinking is working well.

As you gain wisdom and experience, the need to focus becomes more critical. The more you grow, the more focused you can be – and need to be.

Focus Question: “Am I dedicated to removing distractions and mental clutter so that I can concentrate with clarity on the real issue?”

3. Harness Creative Thinking

Creative thinking is an important part of how wise and successful individuals think, but we find few people possess this skill. To be a creative thinker you need to value ideas, enjoy exploring options, embrace uncertainty, celebrate the unconventional, connect what is seemingly unconnected, and do not fear failure.

Creative thinking is valuable because it results in a large number of ideas for consideration. To adopt creative thinking you need to be seeking new ideas and learning more.

Here are five ways to stimulate your creativity:

• Avoid spending too much time with “creativity killers.” Creativity killers are people who are comfortable with the status quo and do not embrace new ideas. When you have a great idea, you must not let anyone dissuade you.
• Ask the right questions. If you are going to think creatively and to challenge the status quo, it is necessary that you ask good questions.
• Develop a creative environment for yourself. Negative environments destroy great ideas, but creative environments are like greenhouses where your great ideas are cultivated. Focus on innovation and allow yourself to dream.
• Spend time with other creative people. One way to counteract a negative environment is to spend time with creative people. Creativity tends to be contagious. Spend time with those that bring out the best in you.
• Get out of “your box.” It is easy to get stuck in the same routines. One of the best ways to avoid this is for you to seek out new paradigms through travel or reading about new subjects.

Focus Question: “Am I working to break out of my “box,” exploring ideas and options, so I can experience creative breakthrough?”

When reflecting on these two waypoints for today, we see how proper thinking provides a person with wisdom and ability. This brings to my mind when Moses was planning for the construction of the tabernacle.  He needed to select people who were both focused and creative in their thinking, evident in Exodus 35:25, “All the women who were skilled in sewing and spinning prepared blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen cloth.” Also in verse 31 we see, “The Lord has filled Bezalel with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom, ability, and expertise in all kinds of crafts.”  The entire 35^th chapter of Exodus is a very interesting read. I would highly recommend.

Think about the two questions that were asked today. Reflect on them. This is an important step in changing your thinking and changing your mind.

As your guide, friend, mentor, and fellow sojourner, let me know how I can help you to become a better thinker, leader, and mentor to your tribe.

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 44 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom.

Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life (Part 1)

Thank you for joining us for our 7 day a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 44 of our Trek, and for the next few days we will continue our Trek to look at how changing our thinking can dramatically change our lives.

We are recording our podcast on Sunday from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was good to be in town and attend our regular church today. To be part of a faith-based community where you have friends that love and care for you is important. I would encourage you to make it a regular habit to join a community of friends and family where you share common values and beliefs.  We are designed to be part of a tribe for fellowship and strength.

As we continue our thoughts about thinking, we are beginning a several day trek today during which we will stop at twelve waypoints or rest areas along the trail. At each waypoint, we will have the occasion to reflect on and change how we think.  By changing our thinking, these waypoints will allow us to change our lives in a positive direction. Eleven of the waypoints that are used were taken from John Maxwell’s book How Successful People Think.  The discussions for those waypoints will be based on the perspectives and wisdom that I have gained through a life of studying wise individuals that have trekked the trails of life and provided us wisdom and insights from their journeys.

Before we reach our first waypoint let us contemplate this question. Can changing your thinking really change your life? As I have studied and observed wise and unwise people for over 35 years now, i have found there is a distinct difference between wise and successful people and unwise and unsuccessful people. It usually boils down to how they think! Correct thinking is the one thing that separates the wise from the unwise and the successful from the unsuccessful.

As we wander down a rabbit trail a bit further, I think it is necessary to explain a little about how we will view each of these waypoints.  I will be using a wise and successful person as equivalent, or the same. In order to do this, we must first separate in our thoughts that a successful person is not necessarily just a wealthy person. Wealth does not determine overall success in a person’s life.  Now, those individuals that are wise, many times, are also wealthy. This is because of the wise financial choices that they have made during their lives. But, there are many individuals who are wealthy financially, but are not successful in the most important areas of their lives. This is because they have made unwise choices in areas that matter most. Proverbs 28:11 says, “Rich people may think they are wise, but a poor person with discernment can see right through them.”

To be truly successful we need to have achieved success in all areas of life.  We need to have a well-rounded “wheel of life” so that our overall ride in life is smooth. In future Wisdom-Trek podcasts, we will explore how to be successful in all areas of life, but for this week’s journey, let’s focus on the 12 waypoints along our trail in order to change our thinking and change our lives.

The good news is that it’s possible for you to learn how to think like a wise and successful person. But, before you can learn from a good thinker, you need to know what he looks like.

For me, the primary trait of a good thinker is a person who blends his wisdom and experience into every thought that he has and every decision that he makes. In addition to wisdom and experience, I believe that good thinking isn’t just one thing. It consists of several specific thinking skills.

Becoming a good thinker means developing those “thinking skills” to the best of your ability.  Like a finely tuned vehicle with thousands of moving parts, a beautifully sounding orchestra with dozens of instruments all playing at the same time, or a smartphone or computer with thousands of integrated circuits all interconnected, you can’t point to any one single item that makes the whole thing work. It’s the entire work — all the pieces working together to create an overall effect — that leads to a masterpiece.

Good thinking is similar. You need all the thinking “pieces” in order to become the kind of person who can achieve great things. I believe that those pieces include twelve essential skills, which we will cover in this week’s series of podcasts.

We have taken some time on our rabbit trail today to lay the groundwork for the 12 waypoints that we will investigate. As with any worthwhile and difficult Trek, planning and preparation are crucial for success. We will just get started on our Trek today with waypoint #1. At each waypoint, I will leave you with a question that you can ask yourself to measure your own thinking. Let’s begin.

1. Cultivate Big-Picture Thinking

We have covered this subject matter in detail during the last two days, Days 42 and 43. If you have not done so already, I would encourage you to listen to those episodes, as it will greatly help in your understanding of Cultivating Big-Picture Thinking. As we are investigating the details of this waypoint – let’s expand on the previous two days.

A big picture perspective brings a level of maturity to an individual’s thinking. Big picture thinkers tend to learn continually, listen intentionally, look expansively, and live completely. Through lifelong learning, big picture thinkers are able to connect ideas that appear at first glance to be unrelated to one another.

Big picture thinking is beneficial for people who want to become leaders. Good leaders are able to create a compelling vision, map a path for attaining that vision, and seize the right moment to proceed. Big picture thinkers are better able to see things from other people’s point of view. They think of others first as mentioned in Philippians 2:3-4, “Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.”

Big picture thinkers exhibit the following four traits:

1. They do not require certainty. When dealing with new or complicated ideas, it is necessary to accept some degree of uncertainty.
2. They learn from every experience. It is essential to learn from both successes and failures.
3. They gain insight from many different people. Important insights can be gained from family, friends, associates and mentors.
4. They are not afraid to expand their world. Although most people are satisfied with the status quo, big picture thinking requires people to go beyond what is commonplace.

The question that I will leave you with at this waypoint is, “Am I thinking beyond myself and my world so that I process ideas with a holistic perspective?”

As your guide, friend, mentor, and fellow sojourner, let me know how I can help with each waypoint that we investigate.

Well, that will finish our podcast for today. If you missed any of our previous podcasts, especially Days 42 and 43, please check out Wisdom-Trek on iTunes, Stitcher, SoundCloud, or Wisdom-Trek.com. Tomorrow as we continue our Trek to waypoint #2 and continue to discover how changing our thinking can literally change our lives.

So, please join us at our “camp” tomorrow for another day on our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 43 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom.

The Results of Thinking Big

Thank you for joining us for our 7 day a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast and journal. This is Day 43 of our Trek, and for the next few days, we will continue our trek about how significantly our thinking impacts our lives, both today and into eternity.

We are recording our podcast from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina, and this weekend Granny and Gramps had the privilege of watching our grandson Kiprono.  His given name is Harold Guthrie Chamberlain, V, but he goes by his Kenyan name Kip for short. Our daughter-in-law Chelimo is from Kenyan heritage and married to our oldest son Harry. Harry and Kip listen to Wisdom-Trek (or as Kip calls them Gramps’ Wisdom Tracks) on their way to preschool each day.  It is a blessing to be closely involved with our grown children and grandchildren. As we have continued opportunity to positively impact our family, one of the areas that we have always emphasized is how important thinking properly is. In addition to the science or power of thinking big, by changing our thinking we can literally change our lives.

It looks like the trail ahead today has some big boulders that we need to consider.  Will these boulders prevent us on our Trek, or will we use them to our advantage as we learn to enjoy the journey each day? Big boulders or obstacles give us the opportunity to think big, achieve big, and succeed big. To me the ability to “Think BIG” is one of the cornerstones of extreme success.

As we consider the concept of thinking big, we have to understand that there is effort exerted in thinking big or small. Take advantage of economies of scale. In many cases, thinking big and taking action on large tasks takes no more time and effort than working on small tasks. But, the results are much bigger and better, and the achievement is greater. I have seen people that have worked harder thinking about how to get out of doing something than if they would just think big and do the work.

It can be much easier to succeed by thinking big, rather than thinking small. So many individuals are thwarted in life because their thinking is so confined and small.  I realize that not everyone has the opportunity to travel and stretch themselves and their world by experiencing other peoples and cultures. With today’s technology, though, there is no reason that you cannot expand your horizons and thinking through virtual travel and experiences. It is literally at our fingertips today.

How to Think and Achieve Big

1. Be Positive and Fearless

Negative or fearful thoughts produce small thinking. Think positively. Eliminate the word “impossible.” Successful big thinkers come up with reasons why they “can.” Others find reasons why they “can’t.”  

Whichever way you think, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Big thinkers see problems as a challenge, and any challenge as an opportunity.  Their big thinking creates unlimited possibilities, alternatives, and solutions. Turn your attention to being brave, bold and optimistic. I realize that Mark 10:27 is specifically dealing with the salvation experience, but the truth is still applicable if we are pursuing a right course of action for our lives. “Jesus looked at them intently and said, 

2. Visualize Without Restraint

It is not a lack of resources that holds people back but a lack of resourcefulness. A big thinker visualizes what is possible in the future, rather than being stuck in the present or mired in the past. Look at things not as they are now, but as they can be – without constraints. This mental rehearsal gives you a compelling taste of what your vision will be like in reality, and the impetus to make it happen. Come up with creative solutions to realize your goals.

3. Ask BIG Questions

Practice asking yourself and others some really big and challenging questions, such as:

• If there was one thing you could change about your world, what would it be?
• If you had an unlimited supply of money, what would you do?
• If you had all the time in the world, what would you do?
• Who in your world would benefit the most from what you know?

Ask for feedback on your ideas from family, friends and associates, but realize they may not have the same vision and big thinking that you do. Locate someone that can mentor you and would be honest with you and have your best interest at heart. Feedback from other people discussing such big questions is invaluable.

4. Be Creative and Dream Big

The size of your belief determines the size of your success. The key to success is imagination. Allow yourself to dream, take note of your greatest idea, and then concentrate on that and don’t give up until your vision is a reality. Create a vision that is so inspirational that it ignites the fire within you and gets you excited to work towards it. 

5. Set Short and Long Term Goals and Stick to Them

Set realistic goals and plans, both short and long term.  Keep your focus laser-like as you aim towards achieving it. Turn your attention to what you want, and make it happen. What you focus on, and what you take action on, you will achieve. Successful people are those who are doing everything they can to achieve their goals. “Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun’s rays do not burn until brought to a focus,” Alexander Graham Bell. 

6. Inspire Those Around You

The ability to leverage and inspire others is key.  Big ideas motivate and inspire those around you, and in this highly connected world it has never been easier to attract and build a following around a big idea. Leverage those around you to give yourself the best chance of making your ideas a reality.

7. Take Action

Goals are dreams that are captured, pinned down, and action-planned. Followed through by action, they ensure success. Take steps towards your big goal on a daily basis. “In life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action,” Tony Robbins.

8. Above All: Believe in Yourself

Belief is the most important part of achieving big. If you believe it can happen, it can happen. Magnify your thinking power. Be confident. Know that you can do it, and you will be unstoppable!

Never underestimate the power of thinking big. Thinking big widens your horizons, taking you out of the ordinary and into the extraordinary. Expand your mind, your thinking, and your horizons. The higher you aim, the higher you will go. Big thinking gets you big results!

As your guide, friend, mentor, and fellow sojourner, let me know how I can help you in your quest to think big.

Well, that will finish our podcast for today. If you missed any of our previous podcasts, please check out Wisdom-Trek on iTunes, Stitcher, SoundCloud or Wisdom-Trek.com. Tomorrow as we continue our trek about thinking, we will study how changing our thinking can literally change our lives.

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 42 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom.

The Science of Thinking Big

Thank you for joining us for our 7 day a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast and journal. This is Day 42 of our Trek, and for the next few days, we are going ponder the science or concept of thinking big versus thinking small and how dramatically our thinking impacts us today and through eternity.

We are recording our podcast from our studio at Home2 in Charlotte, North Carolina. As we end another week and start a new one, I like to reflect on what I was able to accomplish and look forward in anticipation to what I can accomplish in the next week. I ask myself, “What actions can I take to impact my world for good this coming week?”  Many times our Trek is to just continue on what we are doing, to take one step after another, and to be faithful and consistent in doing what is right, just, and fair in every interaction or transaction that we have.  Small incremental actions consistently practiced each day will have an enormous impact over time.

So let’s start up the trail today on our Wisdom-Trek to continue to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before and to leave a living legacy each day. As we start on the trail today we see the huge mountains before us.  As we view these mountains we can look at them in one of two ways.  We can say:

• These mountains are so huge that I will never be able to scale them
• Or, we can look at the challenge before us with excitement and enthusiasm and think, “What a great day it is to Trek to the summit and see the beautiful view that waits for me there!”

Today’s trek is about the science of thinking big versus thinking small. I call it a science because it has been proven continually that what we think about a situation, or indeed life, largely determines how it will turn out.  Now, if you find yourself in a valley of despair at the moment and desire to scale to the mountain peaks, it may take some time.  As with everything in life, we need to take it one step at a time. Given enough time, being persistent and consistent, we can even move mountains.  An old Chinese Proverb puts it this way,   So, regardless of where you are on your trek, start carrying away small stones, and soon the mountains will be moved.

As a person of faith, I recognize there is also clear evidence from Scripture that our thinking or faith has a major impact on the outcomes in our lives. I always want to be very careful that I do not take verses of Scripture out of context in order to fit my point, but there are many instances within Scripture where Christ taught that our thinking, or faith, was a contributing factor in the outcome of healings and other miracles.

Now, I do not profess to fully understand how our thinking and/or faith intertwine with the sovereign will of God. I realize that people with great faith still become ill or have other problems in life, seemingly outside of their control. Things break down and fall apart, whether it is a car, washing machine, or even our bodies.  This is due to the fact that we are part of a fallen world, and that there are certain “laws of nature” that God allows to play out in our lives. Obviously, the better we take care of any of these, the better chance that they will not break down as quickly.

Even though I do not fully understand the mind of God in many matters, I do understand there is a direct correlation between our thinking and beliefs (or faith) and the results. One example of this is when Christ disciples were unable to heal a demon possessed boy in Matthew 17:19-20, “Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, ‘Why couldn’t we cast out that demon?’  ‘You don’t have enough faith,’ Jesus told them. ‘I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.’”

This is a powerful statement about the impact of how our thinking/faith impacts the results that we see in life. Now, I have never heard of anyone literally being able to move a physical mountain. But, there are many situations where people have overcome mountainous obstacles and have gone on to greatness because in their thinking they believed that it was possible.

Our thinking does impact the outcomes in our lives. Our attitudes toward life are very important because our

The way to switch from small thinking to big thinking is to control what goes into your mind.  As mentioned in a previous episode, “You are what you are and where you are because of what has gone into your mind. You can change what you are and where you are by changing what goes into your mind,” Zig Ziglar. In a similar quote he also said, 

What you allow to permeate your mind will be what and how you think. You either need to control your thinking ,or your thinking will control you.  What your mind dwells on, your body acts on.  You will become what your think about.

 You must constantly ask yourself these questions:

• Who am I around?
• What are they doing to me?
• What do they have me reading or watching?
• What do they have me saying?
• Where do they have me going?
• What do they have me thinking?
• And most important, what do they have me becoming?

Then ask yourself the big question, “Is that okay?” Your life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change.

 Guard your thoughts as if they were precious gold and jewels for they are much more valuable than any wealth. Your thoughts are your true wealth.

Proverbs 4:23 encourages, “Guard your heart (mind) above all else for it determines the course of your life.”

As your guide, friend, mentor, and fellow sojourner, let me know how I can help you become a better leader and mentor to your tribe.
