SELF IMPROVEMENT:

 "The Gap"
by Bill Harris
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Sometimes a simple shift in thinking about one part of 
your map of who you are can totally transform your 
experience of life. "The Gap" is such a concept, so I 
want you to pay particularly close attention to what I 
have to say today.

I have a very good friend named Dan Sullivan. Dan, who 
owns a company called Strategic Coach, is, quite 
frankly, a visionary and a genius. Dan taught me 
something he calls The gap, and I want to pass along to 
you, because I see it come up over and over as we 
communicate with Centerpointe program participants. It 
can be a source of constant unhappiness, frustration, 
and dissatisfaction for many people. Luckily, it is 
also very easy to fix.

The Gap is something that happens when we notice the 
difference between what we want and our actual results. 
We want something, we take action, we get a result. 
The difference between the two is the Gap, and how you 
measure this difference can literally mean the 
difference between happiness and unhappiness in your 
life.

Everyone is familiar with the concept of the horizon, 
the place where the sky and the earth meet when we look 
off in the distance. Does the horizon actually exist? 
If we travel far enough, is it a place at which we can 
ever actually arrive? No, it isn't. The horizon does 
not exist, except as a CONCEPT, a mental construct, in 
our minds.

The horizon is, nevertheless, real, even if just as a 
concept, and it is helpful to us in dealing with 
distance and space in certain situations. But we do 
not become unhappy because we can never arrive at the 
horizon. We know it's not a real place.

We have another very similar mental construct, one that 
is very important in human life, which Dan Sullivan 
called The Ideal. The Ideal is not about space or 
distance, however, but rather about time. The Ideal, 
as a concept, helps us deal with the future.

The Ideal is a very interesting and very crucial 
concept, and to understand it you must understand 
something about how humans internally process the idea 
of "the future." What we do is take experiences we 
have had based on them we create internal movies about 
how we want things to be in the future. That we do 
this is very useful, because the brain latches onto 
those movies and uses them in order to know what end 
result to take you toward. Without them, you would 
drift aimlessly, and wouldn't even be able to walk 
across the room or get yourself to work, much less 
achieve anything on a grander scale.

This mechanism of the Ideal is hard-wired into us. Ten 
thousand years ago, people on Earth thought about the 
future, and moved toward it, in the same way, and ten 
thousand years from now, they will still think in the 
same way. The Ideal is built in to us, and 
understanding its purpose is crucial to human 
happiness.

As I said, people easily handle the idea of the 
horizon, and no one gets upset because they cannot 
reach it. Many people, however, have trouble with the 
Ideal, because they don't realize the Ideal is a mental 
construct, like the horizon, and can never be reached. 
As a result, they think life should happen the way 
their movie said it should. They don't know the Ideal 
is just a mental tool designed to make life easier for 
us. It is part of the map of reality I have described 
in previous articles. As I have said before, you 
cannot swim in those blue lines on the road map, or 
go camping on the little triangles and, in the same 
way, you cannot reach the Ideal.

The Gap, then, is the permanent difference between our 
achievement and the Ideal, and just like the horizon is 
always the same distance away from you, wherever you 
are, the distance between your achievement and the 
Ideal is always the same.

ABOUT HANAI:

Born in 1955 in Oakland, CA, Kris Lee-Scott was adopted into a warm and loving family that encouraged her natural musical abilities.   She wrote her first song at four, by 8 played piano by ear and at 12 played guitar, and sang the entire Handel’s Messiah.  Without any formal lessons, she plays more than 14 different instruments including piano, pipe organ, hammer dulcimer, banjo, flute, accordion, drums and many others.  After teaching college level music, Kris founded “KEYBOARD KIDS”, played with MINDZEYE and AVATAR, acted in theater & movies, wrote and directed plays and conducted her own choir.  In 1988 she was given the affectionate nickname HANAI meaning ‘adopted one’ in Hawaiian, which is used by family and friends alike.  She now lives in Florida’s “Space Coast” and continues to travel the U.S. sharing her music and spirit with new friends and old.

Your friends compliment you on your new alligator shoes and you're barefoot....

Going bra-less pulls all the wrinkles out of your face.

Josh, of Rockford ILL writes:.

"If I had never met Hanai nearly 7 years ago, I don’t know how I would have made it this far. Her music has carried me through some difficult times in my life."
