Other Quotes From the Chat with Ken D Foster:

See the un-seeable, open my mind up so I’m not living always in black-and-white. I got tired of black-and-white thinking. I thought let me put some colour in my thoughts. Knowing the unknowable, that’s the wisdom. Wisdom of the ages is here for all of us”
- “value myself at a much higher level…”
- “I proceeded with that formula. Why? I valued my time, my services, my energy, my power, my passion, my experience at a higher level…”
- “I think the biggest secret to my success is stilling the mind being in the place where I could slowdown, that I could isolate myself, that I could contemplate. Next is having a powerful vision of where I want to go and really connecting that and tuning in, is this the highest and best choice or choices for what I am going to do? I want to make sure my purpose is right, aligned with my vision. And after that it’s really taking specific actions and surrounding myself with a whole bunch of people… that are smarter than myself”
- “it’s a daily dripping of our mind, it’s a daily changing, it’s a daily asking what’s working and what’s not working and what can I do to improve my life. I do that every day”
