When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. When the student is truly ready…. The teacher will disappear.

We are in a continuous state of building our opportunities, and as we work to become better than we were the day prior, we must leverage resources that are readily at our disposal in order to accomplish such an undertaking.

As we are continuously a work in progress, we remain awake to the consideration that our perpetual growth may be consistently influenced by valuable allies, whom we are likely to meet on our journey.

Just as the protagonists in movies like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and other sagas, always end up meeting a sage on their journey, such is the case for all of us.

If we are continuously aware of the fact that such sages do exist, and that under proper circumstances, or using proper new technologies, we are ourselves, may access them within our own daily lives through a proper practice of understanding, and therefore leveraging, the valuable wisdom that will come our way over the course of time.

The newest technologies promise to encapsulate knowledge in more vivid, interactive experiences than has ever existed prior. As one of the inventors and purveyors of such technologies, I can share that many of us prize the advancement of human understanding and achievement at the pinnacle of such a success.

If the master only appears when the student is ready, is it more likely that the master is around with even more frequency, but perhaps, in many circumstances, the student doesn’t recognize its presence, because they are not susceptible, nor receptive to any external lesson at that moment in their development?

We have a propensity to attract things that are necessary in our respective worlds in order that we might thrive, improve, and accelerate with full velocity towards our expected destination.

In such a journey, we must be highly aware of the prerequisite variables which will enable us to reach such a destination, and as such, make ourselves that much more willing and desirous of improving our skills as best as we may.

Most of us were around before there was an internet. The advancement of human understanding escalated exponentially with the creation of computers, internet, mobile communication and calculation systems.

As we advance deeper into virtual reality, mixed reality, artificial intelligence and immersive education, the human specie will continue to evolve and achieve ever greater plateaus of success and opportunity.

Many see these advancements as threatening and the bearers of doom, I prefer to see them as the continual evolution of humanity. We have been evolving for more than 100,000 years. The exponential rate of evolution is breathtaking to behold, and I am personally thrilled to be contributing opportunities towards the positive aspects of that evolution, wherever I may.

Happy Tuesday!
