No more money stress. That's what I want to share with you. And I want to start this episode 10 of the series, A Year of Surrender by sharing why I don't need to have any money goals anymore. And this takes me back to a story where I was flying with my business partner at the time. A beautiful, fantastic soul. His name is Oliver. We're flying out, 30,000ft high, sitting in a plane, brainstorming, strategizing, making business plans. We were on the way to a big, fantastic business conference in Florida, and we were sitting there and making all these plans. We were involved, and we had several companies at the time. And. And then I said, wow, this strategy is so good. Then when we implement this, we can retire. We don't have to work a day in our lives anymore. And he looked at me and said, peter, realize this. You will never, ever stop working. You, Peter, will never, ever stop giving your stuff and being there on video and coaching people and doing your thing, because that's who you are. You will never retire. And I was like, yeah, that's true. So it's a part of this entrepreneurial mindset, you know, that we're thinking that, oh, when I earn all this money, then I'll be happy. When I earn this money, when I get to my financial goal, I'll be set for life. I'll retire. I don't have to do a thing anymore. And if you're coming from a shitty place where you have a job that you hate and you feel like you're. You're. Your soul is sucked out of you and you're wasting your life, I get it. But if you're already giving your gift to the world and you're serving people and you feel the natural flow of joy and love and freedom and ease and calm inside of you, you don't have to strive anymore. Because the fact that you're here right now means that you're taken care of. You are loved, you are taken care of. And I am. So this year, I just took a break from that. From now on, I am here to surrender and allowing my smaller, whiny self to surrender and say, I'll let go of that and allow that grander version of me, which is love, joy, freedom, ease, play, fun, to live, ah. And be at the center. And that means what's most important to me will still be the most important that I will give my focus to. That means my kids, that means my wife, that means my clients, that means my friends, and it means you watching, listening to this, and I'm here to serve you. So what I'm doing hasn't changed at all. So, for instance, I'm running a leadership boss. That's a good running. I'm also running a leadership heart coach certification. That's not true. It's a master course certification. That is really true. So that was really catchy, wasn't it? So the thing is, I still have my master coaches that I work with every single week. I just had two hours for them in a weekly Q and A call. And it just expanded into this enormously inspiring session where several people came in and said, oh, I was so tired prior. And then I came on and I'm. I'm full energy and so many ideas ready to just pick down and implement instantaneously. And that's what we do. That's what I do in my trainings for them. And then I'm here every day, every workday. At least when I'm in my family, I'm with my family, but when I'm at work in my office space, I'm here. I'm sharing with you. I want to uplift you. And taking my focus off the goal, I needed help. I needed coaching and also needed someone to see me and mirror me. So my wife has been instrumental for this. She basically said, hey, we're fine. Yes, we do live in a dream home. Yes. We have beautiful nature in front of our house. We have woods. And then we have like 200 degrees, at least 260 degrees ocean view. And then we have four fjords. And it's beautiful. It's silent, it's sunny. Well, except for when it's raining and it's fantastic. We have everything along for the perf. Ah, yes. So why strive for more? Why not just say this materially for now? It's good. And what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna surrender my life into that flow that gave me all this and appreciate it and give to you, express excitement, enthusiasm to you and allow myself to be in service, in loving service, being in alignment, allowing the flow from that alignment to meet you and bring you into alignment so you can meet another one and bring that person into alignment so we can contribute in making this heaven on earth. Ah, yes. That is what really, really is what drives me. So when Oliver, beautiful Oliver, told me, in a plane like, you will never retire, that hit me like a ton of bricks. Yes, that's true. And when my wife told me, we don't have to strive, we don't have to, like, make a lot of money and Pay down the mortgage. Because we do have a mortgage. We're cool, we have enough. Do what you're here for. The money doesn't matter. And so much was lifted from my shoulders in that moment. I was like, okay, that's true. And I thought, oh, for, for a moment there, I was like, what am I going to do differently? I was like, nothing. But it's even clearer for me that I'm only here to serve. And I know that I'm taking care of, I'm always taking care of, always getting one on ones and more than I want. And it's such a gracious blessing, everything. And I know right now you may not be in the same position, that's cool. But you also have blessings. And in every situation, in every relation and every person that comes into your life, there is a gift, there is a blessing. And when we put together those blessings, we can maybe allow ourselves to be lifted to a new level of service, of love. Because I was trapped in this ID because I've been running my own businesses since 1998. Yes, that's some time. And I am an entrepreneur. Like, I can't work for anyone else. I need to run my own life. Then in there, in having that ID and that identity of being a guy who's running his own business, I also adopted a lot of other thoughts and belief patterns that's around in the entrepreneurial area and space. And, and it's like, work hard, do what nobody else wants to do so you can like have a life nobody else gets to have. That's like one quote I'm messing up there. Another one is like, come on, work so you can retire yourself and your family and work so you can get out of where you live and live on a tropical beach. And I don't want that. I want this. And, and then another thing is like, work hard now and get set for life. Like I am. I am perfect. I am perfect. I am living perfectly. And I have this amazing platform to share this with you and be of service to you and see how you can evolve and celebrate that with you. That's what I want. So, my friend, that is what I want. That's what I do. And here I am with you. So that's what I wanted to share. And the thing is, I think we can let go of a lot of the thoughts, the patterns that we've been absorbing from others and just ask yourself, is this really what I want? Is this true for me? And then let go of it. So which all belief patterns that you have been adopting and taking in from others. Can you just let go of because it's not yours. They're borrowed like a beautiful other soul. Bjorn was singing and and was singing don't believe in everything you think it's borrowed from here and there and everywhere. Also beautiful soul coach. And that's true. You don't have to believe in our thoughts. We don't have to believe our feelings. We can allow them to flush through and then surrender and give our life in service to whatever is in front of us. So I'm letting go of my goals. I'm and I'm back to where I started setting intentions. May I be of service to you. May I serve you. May I be of service to all the master coaches that's in my field and in my surrounding and in my service. I hope this in some way shape form was inspiring to you.
