Question
"I Am Confused! I don't understand the system and/or don't think it will work and/or I think I have a better idea as to how it should work."
Answer
Hmmm, that is a great question and one that is not easily answered. Actually, it's not a question but more of a statement really which is one reason why it's so hard to answer.
Easy Solution but Requires Trust . . .
- Did you watch Charlie and The Chocolate Factory movie as directed in the E-VA training? If you did not, then you probably don't trust the integrity of the system which will cause you a great deal of lost energy and unnecessary frustration.
- If you did watch the movie, did you really internalize the meaning?
- It was very hard for Charlie to trust Willy Wonka because Charlie didn't build the system and didn't realize all the genius behind the system. It was impossible for the grandfather to trust because he didn't have childlike faith. Hmmmm, is that why Willy Wonka chose children not adults?
- Having child like faith helps us to "Trust the integrity of the system."
- When we become like teenagers and know a lot but don't have life's experiences to temper our confidence to question things that we really are clueless about, that will create a challenge for us and others around us.
More Complex Answers, which require a lot more thinking :-) . . .
- Did you notice that there was no question but a statement? When people make a statement they at a subconscious level probably, think they know a lot and they aren't looking for an answer but seeking to point out a problem.
- Believe it or not, people are lazy in how they think. They quickly see something that they don't think is working and don't have the disciplines to think through it and realize that often what doesn't seem to be working actually really is.
- Are you using the workbook? No . . . we mean really using the workbook and drilling deep into why things were put there in the precise order it was?
Just heads up . . . Before we question the integrity of the system, we must, first, be aware that what goes on behind the system can reveal weaknesses in our self and bring up things that could be painful to hear. Asking is not wrong, but will probably reveal far more weaknesses within our self than in the system.
It is very important to be humble, because if we're not we'll probably get blown out of the system just like the others did in Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. It's important that we understand if we're strong enough to ask a difficult question, one which questions those in leadership (which is alright to do), then we must make sure that we are strong enough to look at our selves at a deep level.
You'll see Simple To Complex To Simple applied a lot in the system. Slight tweaks to the E-VA site, small pieces here and there in the workbook with greater integration of Natural Laws, and learning what causes people to drop out are all key factors in fine tuning the system.
Individuals who enter the E-VA system often have not started their own companies in the past so they really have no idea how much benefit they are gaining from the massive amount of work, time, money and effort those who have gone before them ? have put forth? . Just like teenagers who start work ?ing? a part time job and ?p ut ?ting? gas in the car ?begin to ? think ?that ? they are really contributing to the system . . . when in fact they still consume far more than they produce.
E-VA mentoring, just like selling ?,? can be very precise. One word, one tweak could make a difference between a lower level individual ?dropping out or ? being able to survive in the system.
Questioning the system reveals weaknesses in the training system. What we mean by that is in a "perfect system" there is so much trust that is developed that no one questions it. Maybe the best system in the world might be McDonald's and believe it or not, there are franchisees who question that system as well, so I guess that would mean there are no perfect systems.
Weak people tend to look to others to solve things and/or how others / the system is the reason for their own failure. Successful people look inside themselves.
The teenager struggles with simple things in areas of consistency ?,? but will question the parent on very complex things. Most people struggle with the ability to "DO" ?,? but teenagers ( ?who are at the top of the dimension ?that ? they are ?in? ) see things ?,? but lack understanding which makes it hard for them ?,? as well as those around them.
A good example is whe ?n? there is an opportunity to jump ?in and help out. Often people don't think they have the time, energy or experience to help out, but once something is built they somehow have the intelligence and experience to find fault with the system. ?
When we find a mistake / error / fault within the system, instead of pointing it out and questioning the system or those who made the system, we should take that error and correct it, or delegate the proofing to someone else to correct it.
I am reluctant to share the above because I don't want to deal with any defensiveness, explanation of why you do or don't do things or to take even more time dealing with it. I'm fine with doing a lot of things ?,? but often people are a weight ?-- cost me time, energy and focus . . . i.e. slowing me down and costing me time and money. People don't want th ?e? burden of having to think through and consider others ?,? they just want to think and feel for themselves and their feelings / thoughts are overwhelming ?,? so how can they think ?/ ? feel for others?
It's very counter intuitive . . . "If I feel bad, low, hurt, angry, upset, defensive . . . and have no energy for my own feelings then how can I feel others?" It's the next dimension.
If someone doesn't have time, energy, discipline and experience to build a new system of excellence then how would someone have the time to figure out what's going on behind the scenes? Even if it was explained to them, would they understand it. If there are changes happening right before someone's eyes, and people aren't able to see or understand the significance of those changes that are obvious then how could someone see / understand far more advanced calculations?
If an individual is not able to do the work in developing the system . . . then it is probably a good idea to just trust those who are OR just sit back and watch it work or not. The individual who is in the trenches - making it happen - knows it is not going to be perfect, knows that most of what they do will not actually work, but they have the confidence, the strength, and the courage to keep working on something like Thomas Edison did with the light bulb.
Please do not misunderstand our response as being frustrated with you.
Those who develop these systems do not have others to go to to help them sort this out so they have learned how to channel their frustration into solutions.
Often people with egos, or those who think that they are smart, have a hard time thinking someone is far smarter than they are...like three or more dimensions beyond them.
The Grandpa Chappell Principle . . . applies to what has been shared above. Much of the above will not be understood or even valued now, but . . . good to write it down as it will help you a great deal in the future.
If you are more confused now than before, it's alright. Check with your mentor and we're betting that they can help to sort everything out for you.
If some of the above seemed really tough . . . ?that's? alright. Just like a boot camp instructor is not going to be soft / easy on you because they want to prepare you for battle, the same thing is true ? with us? . It's very tough starting / owning and running your own business. If you're not prepared properly then you fail and we're committed to do everything to prevent that.
