His story:
His childhood was hard as he had a difficult time socialising by mimicking the social norms. To the stark contrast with his two younger sisters that had a big social network. This created many patterns of being wrong for him. Being creative journaling, playing music, creating fantasy worlds to escape from feeling worthless in society helped him. Looking back he realised that from an early age he knew that he was on the right path. When he moved to the mountains in his teenage years everything changed in a mater of weeks. He got healthier, lost a lot of weight, made easy friends and fell in love with rock climbing and nature. He started connecting with improvisation music and created a social network.
All he wanted as kid was to be normal. Being different, use his body differently helped him to improve his communications skills as he had to work harder to be understood and understanding social norms.
A secret not many know:
Rob was always and is still squatting everywhere even when going on the bathroom. Now we know that our way of using the bathroom is not the best way. Rob new that instinctively since childhood, yet his sisters laughed at him for that. Not only that, if Rob can do it he wants to change the way cars are made so he could squat in them while driving too.
Advice on Breath:
Most of the western world is breathing too shallow. Kids are breathing normally until 3-4 and then they copy the peer groups. So what happens instead of breathing into the belly we breath into the chest. This will cause many issues one is that our our parasympathetic nervous system gets set into “Fight or Flight” mode. Very stressing for our body and immune system. The other downside is that we are not massaging our organs enough through deep belly breath. This massage helps the organs to release toxins, you can imagine that we now keep too much “garbage” in our organs and we are keeping our body unconsciously stressed.
TIP: “The 3 Part Breath”. Put one hand on your belly, breath in and expand the space in-between the fingers. Put the other hand on your chest and when the belly is full, expand the chest. Then release the breath out first in the chest and then belly. Repeat until you feel relaxed.
Creativity.
Creativity is a loop of opening up and closing your mind to new information, insights and new knowledge. This loop enables you to practice, expand your competency during your lifetime. After you have been open and absorb the new you will then close for new information and focus and practice to master the new skill until you feel the need for new learnings. That makes an innovator. The circle and capacity to open up and then focus creating a wider perspective than a specialist.
A specialist on the other hand is highly focused on one topic. Those people are never open for new information.
