THE MESSAGE
Transcribed on 25th September 2024 @ 4:40 pm
Hello student. You are nearly an excellent student too. You’re keen to learn and that’s a good way to be. You’re not an excellent student though. Before you take umbrage, most other students aren’t excellent either.
To become the most excellent student one must do more than hear the lesson. One must act upon it, until that what it teaches becomes part of the student.
You, as example, have been privy to many lessons about your mediumship and your life in general. But how many of those lessons have you fully absorbed into your being?
This is what defines the good from the greatest. As your tutors have said more than once, potential minus intent is nothing. Potential with intent is progress.
Now, I’m aware that you value taking physical notes and referring to them often, but you’d be amazed at how many students don’t even take notes. Educating yourself involves discipline beyond what you might have in the classroom. You’ve been your own boss much of your later working year. You set the targets and did the work. But did you ever stretch yourself beyond your known limits?
Progress involves action. Action involves friction. Friction comes from motion. Yes, you might write that thought you just had.
[Motivation – Motive for Action]
Now listen to me, please. The degree of difference between your great mediums and your good mediums is very minute. It’s that tiniest amount of increased extra effort that defines the greatest mediums.
They may well have had their gift for longer in life. That’s where their abilities have been attuned. But that does not limit you, or others to become great at what you do. Your world needs better mediums. That means it needs better students. Students that, not just want to learn, but are prepared to work on the tiny details to define their work greater.
Too many mediums are prepared to accept mediocrity from themselves because they’re not prepared to go the extra mile.
I want you to start doing that more in your work with us. Go the extra mile. Remove obstacles, such as egos, emotions and the like, and focus on details. Learn every day. Make it your mission to become great at what you do. And why not aim to become the greatest at it. You certainly can achieve that, as can anyone reading these words. Fuel the fire. The fire is the desire. The desire is the driving force.
I’ve enjoyed sharing my lesson with you today. I hope you see the potential in all the details of these words.
Go be that person your soul wants you to be.
That is all.
