"I have chosen the right place to learn about me"

Why Mindvalley's Be Extraordinary Quest? I'm one of the 'successes' of the academic system - gaining a PhD and being a teacher. But, I knew from my own experience there is something fundamentally missing in how we approach education. Otherwise how could I get to my late forties and feel lost -know deep within that I was not following my path, so not expanding my potential as a person to help others and myself? Then Be Extraordinary popped up and this seemed to be the perfect quest to lay the foundations for moving forwards! The way Vishen drew on many mentors appealed to my research mind. The way he explained and presented the information was inspiring. 

What are the results? Confidence that I have chosen the right place to learn about me! There hasn't been a single huge 'win', but when I look back to mid February I can see a trail of footsteps glistening - tiny, tentative, small steps to start with but becoming more visible and confident over time as I move towards 'me' - a 'me' that has already benefitted people around me. The best thing is there is a myriad of other footsteps surrounding mine, and I know that we all have a Tribe we can call on whenever we need it. Now That Is Extraordinary.
