How Your Familiars Trap You In The Rat Race. 

'The only thing difficult about the creation of wealth is breaking free of the lifelong patterns, which mitigate against financial success.'

Habitual Behaviour Patterns

The mechanics of wealth are relatively easy. All the strategies, learning and support you need are available. All you have to do is place yourself in more fertile environments. The only thing difficult about the creation of wealth is breaking free of the lifelong patterns, which mitigate against financial success. 

Not Enough Discomfort?

Even though most people complain about their lot in life, they do not experience enough discomfort to motivate them towards serious change. So they drift through life, swapping their complaints about the ‘rat race’ with each other whilst doing the same things over and over again in order to keep themselves immersed in the ‘rat race’. What a term the ‘rat race’ is!

We have travelled far in the development of human potential, where arguably the most intelligent species on earth still compare themselves with externally controlled lab rats in a race for their lives. Most are too busy focusing on the ‘race’ to contemplate escaping from the maze. Like lemmings, they are running a one-way journey. 

Retreat to the Comfort Zone

If, for any reason, people are pushed to the edge of their comfort zone, feelings of discomfort well deep from within. The closer they get to the edge the more outside their known world they are; the more turbulence they experience, the more confusion enters their being and the more their assumptive world destabilises.

For most people the loss of certainty and the state of confusion is an unpleasant experience because there is no familiarity to guide them. The more confusion there is, the more people suffer a loss of emotional, psychological, cultural and physical landmarks.

While some will rise to such challenges the majority will not, and so they seek a retreat towards their known. It is a retreat towards security, comfort and certainty.
