Every Human Being Is An Inherent Genius

Hello!
I’d like to ask you a question…

One that I often ask of others, about the capacity that we as human beings have for
living with intentionality, purpose, integrity, wisdom and power.

And, here’s the question…

“Do you believe you are a genius?”

Now, what was your reaction to my question?

I ask, because this simple question often catches people off guard. And…their
responses are quite interesting. Because each of these capable, resourceful and
intelligent people I’m in conversation with, almost without exception, tell me, “no,
I’m not a genius.”

Now, could that be a “self-fullfilling prophecy” for such a person? Meaning, if you
believe you are not a genius, then wouldn’t you naturally find yourself engaging in
thinking, behaviors, and experiences that are on less than a genius level. Not
because that is all you are capable of… but because that is simply what you have
learned to believe about yourself.

The Fact Is…Every Human Being Is An Inherent Genius…Period

Now, If this is not yet an integral part of your belief system, it might be useful to
you to try this on, at least as a possibility, for a short period of time. You can always
go back to believing that only a select few are geniuses!

Now, many people bring up a valid point as I talk with them about being an
inherent genius…

If we are all geniuses, why are so many human beings living with less than what they
desire…and deserve?

And to that I say, there is no one reason as to why so many people are leading lives
that do not reflect their genius capacity. However, I will mention three things that
shed light on this matter:

1) Your overall attitude and belief system…including expectations that create and
sustain less than desired performance and outcomes. Complacency, which is a
manifistation of one’s beliefs and values,falls into this category.

2) A lack of needed resources, such as a specific skill.

3) One’s core relationships, that over time, create and sustain a powerful
environment that supports who you are, your vision and the direction you are
moving in…or not.

Concerning these three insights, I will have much more to say elsewhere. And for
now… You can decide that you will not settle anymore…period. Why settle for what
now is…no matter how good it is…when there is always more!

Now, going with the belief, or at least the possibility, that every human being is an
inherent genius…where then, did most people learn otherwise?

More importantly, if you were among the majority and, in the past, did not believe
you were a genius…Where did you learn that you were “not a genius”… when in fact
you are? Because if you are a human being with a healthy brain, then you are an
inherent genius. Period.

Now, how consistently you engage your genius abilities and patterns is another
matter altogether. The question for now is, have you had what you would consider
to be “genius moments” and have you ever performed on a “genius level,” with
anything?

The reality for all of us, is that our past performance and experience reveals that we
have indeed performed on genius levels at times. And, yet, most people, looking at
such performance and moments conclude, “I’m intelligent, bright, ambitious, and
even above average, but I wouldn’t call myself a genius.”

And Why Not?

What if from this moment on, in increasing measure, and on all levels, you now
begin to identify yourself as the genius you are, with all the capabilities and promise
that the concept “genius” implies? What then?

And as you think about that, please know that this site, the home of
