The Tapping Solution Quotes

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER

Under chronic stress, your body is more apt to enter a state of dis-ease. Unable to achieve its natural balance, it can’t function the way it should. The ripple effects can be profound. And yet Western medicine has trained us to focus on symptomsrather than root causes like stress. Page 71

True negotiation takes place when each side respects the other, and their point of view, and enters into the discussion positively. If you are determined that your solution, and your particular solution only, is the correct one – to be imposed on the other side if necessary – that is not negotiation; it is dictatorship

When we accept ourselves as we are, we aren't "settling" or "keeping the problem in place." We're showing love and compassion for ourselves-for our feelings, our situation, and our history.

Our mind takes an inventory of past events and uses them to project the probability of success in the future. Depending on the information it gathers, we either move forward—or the fear response is triggered and forward progress is circumvented. Page 48

A woman with confidence is hypnotic. A smile is mesmerizing. Presence, openness, a sense of humor—these are all things that make a woman attractive. We’ve all experienced the presence of someone who walks in and lights up a room. It’s never about their looks but about their energy. Allow yourself to light up the room by being your beautiful self.

The whole point to New Years is not just to have a new year. But that we should be new, better and different people. That is why we exercise to RE-NEW our bodies. That is why we write GOALS to get a Renewed sense of our potential. That is why we make RE-SOLUTIONS because we resolve that there are solutions inside of us that we have not tapped into. So don't waste each New Years season. Maximize it! Start fresh using a new perspective for it will enable you to tap into a new season with greater capacity.

It is the mind’s job to protect and take care of you, to solve your problems and make sure you’re safe. So, if you feel a surge of emotional upset, it moves into action, trying to help, looking for the source of the upset—for the problems—and generating solutions. Under these conditions, the key to getting the mind to go on standby—to stilling the mind’s compulsive thinking—lies in recognizing, accepting, and working with the emotional upset. Once you address the emotional undercurrent, once it is no longer churning inside you, the mind can switch off and quite literally leave you in peace.

Prototypes of inventions that use novel combinations of resonance, magnetism, states of matter, certain geometries or inward swirling motion to unlock the secrets of universal energy have already been built. They provide proof of new or rediscovered principles. In many variations of these inventions, a small input triggers a disproportionately large output of useable power." "These energy converters don't violate any laws of physics if they simply tap into a previously unrecognized source of power - background space. A flow of energy from that source can continue day and night, whether or not the sun shines or the wind blows.

A person who is walking around with the belief I am safe in my body is going to approach the world from a very different place than someone who doesn't believe that. That person will be more confident in approaching others, as Sonia was in sharing her business at the women’s event. They’re going to be much more willing to put themselves out in the world, to be vulnerable in relationships, and to be willing to risk and dare, because they’re operating from a place of safety.

Though we’re not yet sure why, tapping seems to turn off the amygdala’s alarm—deactivating the brain’s arousal pathways. Tapping on the meridian endpoints sends a calming response to the body, and the amygdala recognizes that it’s safe. What’s more, tapping while experiencing—or even discussing—a stressful event counteracts that stress and reprograms the hippocampus, which compares past threats with present signals and tells the amygdala whether or not the present signal is an actual threat.

For many of us, the internally generated stress response is triggered by a negative memory or thought that has its roots in past trauma or conditioned learning from childhood. The stress response in the body takes the same form, whether the trigger is the tiger (external) or a negative memory (internal). The adrenaline flows, the heart races, and so on.

Through a guided, closed-eye visualization, where she continued to tap through all the points, I took her through “uninstalling” her old program and “installing” the new program.

There was no focus, no sustained passion for what I was doing—and the results showed.

The truth is that we won’t receive the support we need until we ask for it. Just because we can do it all doesn’t mean we should. And when we don’t speak up about our needs, we’re asking our loved ones to read our minds—and then we resent them when they fail our test. By not being open and honest about the support we need, we’re selling ourselves short and setting our relationships up for failure.

Everybody has got to live for something, but Jesus is arguing that, if he is not that thing, it will fail you. First, it will enslave you. Whatever that thing is, you will tell yourself that you have to have it or there is no tomorrow. That means that if anything threatens it, you will become inordinately scared; if anyone blocks it, you will become inordinately angry; and if you fail to achieve it, you will never be able to forgive yourself. But second, if you do achieve it, it will fail to deliver the fulfillment you expected. Let me give you an eloquent contemporary expression of what Jesus is saying. Nobody put this better than the American writer David Foster Wallace. He got to the top of his profession. He was an award-winning, bestselling postmodern novelist known around the world for his boundary-pushing storytelling. He once wrote a sentence that was more than a thousand words long. A few years before the end of his life, he gave a now-famous commencement speech at Kenyon College. He said to the graduating class, Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship. And the compelling reason for maybe choosing some sort of god . . . to worship . . . is that pretty much anything else you worship will eat you alive. If you worship money and things, if they are where you tap real meaning in life, then you will never have enough, never feel you have enough. It’s the truth. Worship your own body and beauty and sexual allure, and you will always feel ugly. And when time and age start showing, you will die a million deaths before [your loved ones] finally plant you. . . . Worship power, and you will end up feeling weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to numb you to your own fear. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart, you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud, always on the verge of being found out. Look, the insidious thing about these forms of worship is not that they are evil or sinful; it is that they’re unconscious. They are default settings.4 Wallace was by no means a religious person, but he understood that everyone worships, everyone trusts in something for their salvation, everyone bases their lives on something that requires faith. A couple of years after giving that speech, Wallace killed himself. And this nonreligious man’s parting words to us are pretty terrifying: “Something will eat you alive.” Because even though you might never call it worship, you can be absolutely sure you are worshipping and you are seeking. And Jesus says, “Unless you’re worshipping me, unless I’m the center of your life, unless you’re trying to get your spiritual thirst quenched through me and not through these other things, unless you see that the solution must come inside rather than just pass by outside, then whatever you worship will abandon you in the end.

What tapping does is bridge that gap between your body and your mind. When you tap while focusing on the thought or feeling, you relax the body and send a calming signal to the brain, telling it that it, too, can relax.

When we face rejection, it can be a poignant time to tap into our desire, motivation, drive, and passion to pursue what we most want. • Why do I want this? • Why does it matter to me? • Am I willing to do whatever it takes to get there?

As I said before, EFT isn’t a mind eraser; it doesn’t delete memories in any way, but it does clear the negative emotional and energetic patterns behind a memory. Thus it changes our approach and response to the event—and to life going forward.

It’s not about the next big idea, get-rich-quick scheme, or huge opportunity. Those are a dime a dozen. What are not a dime a dozen are healthy financial tapping trees—people who can actually take those big ideas, dreams, and opportunities and make them happen.

When you’re experiencing a negative emotional state—angry or upset or fearful—your brain goes on alert. It prepares your body to enter a full-blown, fight-or-flight response. This response evolved to mobilize the body to face an external threat—think of a tiger coming after your ancient ancestor. All the body’s defense systems are turned on to support either fighting or fleeing from the danger. Your adrenaline pumps, your muscles tense, and your blood pressure, heart rate, and blood sugar all rise to give you extra energy to meet the challenge.

It is a popular modern idea. That the inner us is something different to the outer us. That there is an authentic realer and better and richer version of ourselves which we can only tap into by buying a solution. This idea that we are separate from our nature, as separate as a bottle of Dior perfume is from the plants of a forest. As far as I can see, this is a problem with living in the twenty-first century. Many of us have every material thing we need, so the job of marketing is now to tie the economy to our emotions, to make us feel like we need more by making us want things we never needed before. We are made to feel poor on thirty thousand pounds a year. To feel poorly travelled if we have been to only ten other countries. To feel too old if we have a wrinkle. To feel ugly if we aren’t photoshopped and filtered.

Sometimes EFT is as simple as that: slotting a few minutes into your day. Tapping when you feel stuck, frustrated, or lazy. Of course, EFT is amazing for the huge challenges in our lives, but it works just as well for the little stuff. The thing is, it’s the little stuff that turns into big stuff.

So when you’re stuck or don’t know what to tap on, don’t be afraid to take a leap. Try something else. Just the process of tapping can often relax the body and mind enough that different ideas, impressions, and leads come your way. Through trial and error, you can determine what’s really going on and how to clear it.

We need to become friends with food again. It’s a relationship we need to spend time on and really invest in. When we go from obsessing about diet foods to eating foods that nourish us, from obsessing about losing weight to obsessing about learning how to thrive with better health, we enjoy the journey of discovering what is best for us.

As Karim Lakhani put it after his InnoCentive research, a key to creative problem solving is tapping outsiders who use different approaches “so that the ‘home field’ for the problem does not end up constraining the solution.” Sometimes, the home field can be so constrained that a curious outsider is truly the only one who can see the solution.

The most powerful way I know for you to lose weight and feel great in your body is to use tapping to clear your limiting emotions and beliefs so you can start listening to your inner voice. It’s time for you to start caring about what you think, so yes, go ahead and try that tango class, ask for a raise, and say no to people who drain you. Whatever your heart and body are telling you, it’s time to listen.

The world doesn’t need us to be martyrs. The world needs our gifts. It needs our intelligence, our laughter, and yes, our love, but not love that looks and feels like self-sacrifice. The world needs us to take care of ourselves so we can shine brightly and inspire others to do the same. And again, we can’t give others what we ourselves don’t have. We can’t spread peace, love, or hope if we haven’t experienced those things ourselves.

It suddenly hit me—it was nearly impossible to take good care of something I hated. I’d spent so long hating my body that I didn’t know how to respect and nurture myself or my body. By focusing so much on my exterior, I also robbed myself of the opportunity to feel good about myself and my body, simply because I didn't meet a cultural standard of beauty that is obsessed with thinness. That created stress that interfered with my weight loss and with my own happiness.

It’s important to be aware of the end goal, the grand theme, the big vision. But once that is clear to you, then you just have to take the next step in front of you. What’s amazing about using EFT with this strategy is that it works perfectly on addressing just that: the next step. The next obstacle. What’s in front of you right now! Even though I’m overwhelmed by all the things I have to do with this project … Even though I’m not sure what to do next … Even though I don’t feel confident that I can figure out how to get this done … Even though I’m out of my league and don’t know what I’m doing …

What agony he suffered as he watched that light, in whose golden atmosphere were moving, behind the closed sash, the unseen and detested pair, as he listened to that murmur which revealed the presence of the man who had crept in after his own departure, the perfidy of Odette, and the pleasures which she was at that moment tasting with the stranger. And yet he was not sorry that he had come; the torment which had forced him to leave his own house had lost its sharpness when it lost its uncertainty, now that Odette's other life, of which he had had, at that first moment, a sudden helpless suspicion, was definitely there, almost within his grasp, before his eyes, in the full glare of the lamp-light, caught and kept there, an unwitting prisoner, in that room into which, when he would, he might force his way to surprise and seize it; or rather he would tap upon the shutters, as he had often done when he had come there very late, and by that signal Odette would at least learn that he knew, that he had seen the light and had heard the voices; while he himself, who a moment ago had been picturing her as laughing at him, as sharing with that other the knowledge of how effectively he had been tricked, now it was he that saw them, confident and persistent in their error, tricked and trapped by none other than himself, whom they believed to be a mile away, but who was there, in person, there with a plan, there with the knowledge that he was going, in another minute, to tap upon the shutter. And, perhaps, what he felt (almost an agreeable feeling) at that moment was something more than relief at the solution of a doubt, at the soothing of a pain; was an intellectual pleasure.

Anger is loaded with information and energy,” says Audre Lorde. “Every woman has a well-stocked arsenal of anger potentially useful against those oppressions, personal and institutional, which brought that anger into being. Focused with precision it can become a powerful source of energy serving progress and change.” Lorde asks us to tend to the rage within us as a symphony, “to listen to its rhythms, to learn within it, to move beyond the manner of presentation to the substance, to tap that anger as an important source of empowerment.” It is a rhythm: Step away to rage, return to listen, and reimagine the solutions together. It becomes a kind of dance—to release raw rage in a safe container, in order to send divine rage into the world, like focused fury. The way of the warrior-sage is not only loving-kindness but loving-revolution, or revolutionary love.

Dedicating my energies to the study of the social organisation which is in the future to replace the present condition of things, I’ve come to the conviction that all makers of social systems from ancient times up to the present year, 187-, have been dreamers, tellers of fairy-tales, fools who contradicted themselves, who understood nothing of natural science and the strange animal called man. Plato, Rousseau, Fourier, columns of aluminium, are only fit for sparrows and not for human society. But, now that we are all at last preparing to act, a new form of social organisation is essential. In order to avoid further uncertainty, I propose my own system of world-organisation. Here it is.” He tapped the notebook. “I wanted to expound my views to the meeting in the most concise form possible, but I see that I should need to add a great many verbal explanations, and so the whole exposition would occupy at least ten evenings, one for each of my chapters.” (There was the sound of laughter.) “I must add, besides, that my system is not yet complete.” (Laughter again.) “I am perplexed by my own data and my conclusion is a direct contradiction of the original idea with which I start. Starting from unlimited freedom, I arrive at unlimited despotism. I will add, however, that there can be no solution of the social problem but mine.

Quick

Marturano recommended something radical: do only one thing at a time. When you’re on the phone, be on the phone. When you’re in a meeting, be there. Set aside an hour to check your email, and then shut off your computer monitor and focus on the task at hand. Another tip: take short mindfulness breaks throughout the day. She called them “purposeful pauses.” So, for example, instead of fidgeting or tapping your fingers while your computer boots up, try to watch your breath for a few minutes. When driving, turn off the radio and feel your hands on the wheel. Or when walking between meetings, leave your phone in your pocket and just notice the sensations of your legs moving. “If I’m a corporate samurai,” I said, “I’d be a little worried about taking all these pauses that you recommend because I’d be thinking, ‘Well, my rivals aren’t pausing. They’re working all the time.’ ” “Yeah, but that assumes that those pauses aren’t helping you. Those pauses are the ways to make you a more clear thinker and for you to be more focused on what’s important.” This was another attack on my work style. I had long assumed that ceaseless planning was the recipe for effectiveness, but Marturano’s point was that too much mental churning was counterproductive. When you lurch from one thing to the next, constantly scheming, or reacting to incoming fire, the mind gets exhausted. You get sloppy and make bad decisions. I could see how the counterintuitive act of stopping, even for a few seconds, could be a source of strength, not weakness. This was a practical complement to Joseph’s “is this useful?” mantra. It was the opposite of zoning out, it was zoning in. In fact, I looked into it and found there was science to suggest that pausing could be a key ingredient in creativity and innovation. Studies showed that the best way to engineer an epiphany was to work hard, focus, research, and think about a problem—and then let go. Do something else. That didn’t necessarily mean meditate, but do something that relaxes and distracts you; let your unconscious mind go to work, making connections from disparate parts of the brain. This, too, was massively counterintuitive for me. My impulse when presented with a thorny problem was to bulldoze my way through it, to swarm it with thought. But the best solutions often come when you allow yourself to get comfortable with ambiguity. This is why people have aha moments in the shower. It was why Kabat-Zinn had a vision while on retreat. It was why Don Draper from Mad Men, when asked how he comes up with his great slogans, said he spends all day thinking and then goes to the movies. Janice Marturano was on

couldn’t do it. I just left. I walked straight out of the bathroom and made a b-line for the door. I don’t know if they saw me. I didn’t make eye contact, I didn’t call to tell them I couldn’t make it, I didn’t do anything. I ruined that chance just like I ruin every chance I get.” He paused and tapped his fingers against his leg and looked back down at the gray carpet. “There’s something wrong with me. I’m not normal. No one else experiences this much fear about meeting some new people.” The Cause of Shyness The idea that you are somehow insufficient, not enough, broken or damaged is the major source of social anxiety. It has a profound effect on how you see yourself, and how willing you are to let others see your real self. This one idea will significantly impact every area of your life. It will determine whether you approach a stranger, how close you let your partner get to you in a relationship, and even whether you allow yourself to have a relationship to begin with. It

becoming your greatest self is more about the simple choices we each make every day, in our worst moments, our best moments, and the many others in between. It’s those choices, the daily actions that then allow you to realize your biggest dreams and passions, allow you to change the world, allow you to be superhuman, and, heck, maybe even to leap a tall building in a single bound.

When you’re in an authentic place of peace, you’re likely to feel more open, aware, even curious when faced with challenges. In the absence of certainty, you feel calmer than you might expect. Emotionally as well as physically, you may experience less tension, pain, resistance, and confusion. When you’re in a place of panic, you’re likely to feel more closed off and shut down. This can also manifest physically as tension and pain, as well as an inability to make decisions, focus, and more. It can also manifest as a sense of overwhelm, even apathy toward people, places, or things you care about.

peace is an entirely internal state of being. Peace happens when we’re fully present in the moment. Nothing and no one and no place or circumstance outside ourselves can give us peace. Only we, ourselves, can choose to pursue it.

There is a wonderful story of a group of American car executives who went to Japan to see a Japanese assembly line. At the end of the line, the doors were put on the hinges, the same as in America. But something was missing. In the United States, a line worker would take a rubber mallet and tap the edges of the door to ensure that it fit perfectly. In Japan, that job didn’t seem to exist. Confused, the American auto executives asked at what point they made sure the door fit perfectly. Their Japanese guide looked at them and smiled sheepishly. “We make sure it fits when we design it.” In the Japanese auto plant, they didn’t examine the problem and accumulate data to figure out the best solution—they engineered the outcome they wanted from the beginning. If they didn’t achieve their desired outcome, they understood it was because of a decision they made at the start of the process.

A throat cleared. “Earth to Arik. Come in, boss.” With brows drawn, Arik glared at his beta. “What?” “I was asking what had your boxers in a knot.” “You know I go commando.” “Usually, but something obviously has your panties in a twist. Spill.” Oh, he spilled all right. Arik yanked off the hat and flung it against the wall and then swiveled his chair to get it over with. Indrawn breath. A snicker. A full-on guffaw. Arik swirled again and tossed deadly visual daggers at his second. “I fail to see the humor in my butchered mane.” “Dude. Have you seen it? It is bad. What did you do to piss Dominic off? Seduce one of his daughters?” “Actually one of his granddaughters did this to me!” He couldn’t help the incredulous note. The effrontery of the act still got to him. A thump and a shake of the wall as Hayder hit it, his shoulders shaking with laughter. “A girl did that to you?” His beta convulsed with mirth, not at all daunted by Arik’s glower and tapping fingers. “This is not amusing.” “Oh, come on, dude. Of all the people to have a hair mishap, you are the worst.” “I look like an idiot.” “Only because you didn’t let her finish hacking the rest off.” His fingers froze as he took his gaze off the screen for a moment to address the travesty. “Cut off my mane?” Was his beta delusional? “Well, yeah. You know, to even it out so it doesn’t show.” A growl rumbled forth, more beast than man, his lion not at all on board with any more trimming. “Okay, if you’re not keen on that, then what about a hair weave? Maybe we could get you a platinum one, or pink for contrast since you’re being such a prissy princess about it.” That did it. A lion could take only so much. Arik dove over his desk and tackled his beta. Over they went with a thump and a tangle of limbs. As he was slamming Hayder’s head off the floor, snarling, “Take it back!” to his beta’s chortled, “We’ll get your nails done while they’re weaving,” Leo strode in. A giant of a man, he didn’t even have to strain as he grabbed them each by a shoulder and yanked them apart. But he didn’t stop there. He slammed their heads together before shoving them down. Arik and Hayder sat on the carpeted floor, nursing robin’s eggs, united in their glare for the pride’s omega, also known as the peacemaker. Of course, Leo’s version of peace wasn’t always gentle, which was why he was perfect for the pride. The behemoth with the mellow outlook on life took a seat in a chair, which groaned ominously. “You do know that the staff two floors down can hear the pair of you acting like ill-behaved cubs.” “He started it!” Arik stabbed a finger at his beta. He had no problem assigning blame. Delegation was something an alpha did well. Hayder didn’t even deny his guilt. “I did. But can you blame me? He was pissing and moaning about this precious mane. All I did was offer a solution, and he took offense.” “I assume we’re talking about the missing chunk of hair on our esteemed leader’s head?” Leo shook his neatly trimmed dark crown. “I keep telling you that vanity is your weakness.” “And chocolate chip ice cream is yours. We all have our vices,” Arik grumbled as he heaved himself off the floor and into his leather-padded seat— with built-in heating pad and massager because a man in his position did enjoy his luxuries. “My vice is beautiful women,” Hayder announced with a grin, adopting a lounging pose on the floor. Felines were king when it came to acting as if embarrassing positions weren’t accidental at all. “Don’t talk to me about women right now. I’m still angry at the one who did this.” “I think I’m missing a key point,” Leo stated. It didn’t take long to bring Leo up to speed. To his credit, the pride omega didn’t laugh— long.

Unexpected emergency plumbers Unexpected emergency plumber is? If your own group, but probably the same dress isn’t in the middle, where they start imitating the pool, the owner most likely to smoke.

not that concerned with weight for its own sake. For me, weight loss is a happy side effect of loving yourself more and feeling more powerful and beautiful in your own body. That is what I truly hope women experience from embarking on this journey, because when you feel those things, your entire life opens up. Suddenly, your internal and external realities shift in amazing and inspiring ways, and your dreams begin turning into your reality.

You have it in you to work smart and discover the best solutions in life. Allow yourself to tap into your creative abilities, resourcefulness, and problem-solving skills and achieve extraordinary results.

You may find yourself facing internal enemies, like self-criticism and self-blame, or you may face external enemies, like an overbearing supervisor or a stingy landlord. You find relief from these difficulties when you face them directly. Imagine a difficulty you’re currently dealing with. Now tap in to feelings of love and peace. Once they are concrete enough, aim them toward your trouble. Hold that loving frame of mind for at least ten to twenty minutes, then see if new solutions present themselves.

You have it in you to work smart and discover the best solutions in life. Allow yourself to tap into your creative abilities, resourcefulness, and problem-solving skills if you desire to achieve extraordinary results.

He continued, “That’s what you always say. When something is wrong or going bad, you just look at me and say, ‘Good.’” And I said, “Well, I mean it. Because that is how I operate.” So I explained to him that when things are going bad, there’s going to be some good that will come from it. Oh, mission got cancelled? Good. We can focus on another one. Didn’t get the new high-speed gear we wanted? Good. We can keep it simple. Didn’t get promoted? Good. More time to get better. Didn’t get funded? Good. We own more of the company. Didn’t get the job you wanted? Good. Go out, gain more experience, and build a better résumé. Got injured? Good. Needed a break from training. Got tapped out? Good. It’s better to tap out in training than to tap out on the street. Got beat? Good. We learned. Unexpected problems? Good. We have the opportunity to figure out a solution.

Sending thoughts of love and appreciation to the heart is a powerful experience. It brings peace and calm, and it brings unexpected solutions to present problems. It is through the heart that we connect to our God Self/Higher Self, which is always ready to help us. In connecting with our Higher Self, we are tapping into the wellspring of wisdom and abundance for our life in all aspects.

The aphorism “Pull yourself up by the bootstraps” comes ironically to mind because it’s so inapplicable: if you can’t afford boots, don’t have any power and barely any resources, if there’s no way to hoist yourself up, then when you need something (say, food or tuition for your kids) the choices are either to ask for it or take it. Or suffer quietly. Or throw rocks at a tap-tap or hit your wife. So are good, brilliant, powerful people working somewhere to find systemic economic and political solutions to the problems we see crushing down on our neighbors? And will the good guys win? Because too often they don’t.

There is a wonderful story of a group of American car executives who went to Japan to see a Japanese assembly line. At the end of the line, the doors were put on the hinges, the same as in America. But something was missing. In the United States, a line worker would take a rubber mallet and tap the edges of the door to ensure that it fit perfectly. In Japan, that job didn’t seem to exist. Confused, the American auto executives asked at what point they made sure the door fit perfectly. Their Japanese guide looked at them and smiled sheepishly. “We make sure it fits when we design it.” In the Japanese auto plant, they didn’t examine the problem and accumulate data to figure out the best solution—they engineered the outcome they wanted from the beginning. If they didn’t achieve their desired outcome, they understood it was because of a decision they made at the start of the process. At the end of the day, the doors on the American-made and Japanese-made cars appeared to fit when each rolled off the assembly line. Except the Japanese didn’t need to employ someone to hammer doors, nor did they need to buy any mallets. More importantly, the Japanese doors are likely to last longer and maybe even be more structurally sound in an accident. All this for no other reason than they ensured the pieces fit from the start. What the American automakers did with their rubber mallets is a metaphor for how so many people and organizations lead. When faced with a result that doesn’t go according to plan, a series of perfectly effective short-term tactics are used until the desired outcome is achieved. But how structurally sound are those solutions? So many organizations function in a world of tangible goals and the mallets to achieve them. The ones that achieve more, the ones that get more out of fewer people and fewer resources, the ones with an outsized amount of influence, however, build products and companies and even recruit people that all fit based on the original intention. Even though the outcome may look the same, great leaders understand the value in the things we cannot see. Every instruction we give, every course of action we set, every result we desire, starts with the same thing: a decision. There are those who decide to manipulate the door to fit to achieve the desired result and there are those who start from somewhere very different. Though both courses of action may yield similar short-term results, it is what we can’t see that makes long-term success more predictable for only one. The one that understood why the doors need to fit by design and not by default.

There’s nothing wrong with venting, letting off a little steam. The problem comes when you find yourself venting about the same thing over and over again, with no change and no resolution. Add tapping to the venting and a few things will happen: a. You’ll let go of the story much faster. b. You’ll begin to come to a new awareness about the issue. c. You’ll naturally come up with creative solutions. I’ve had many people tell me that there’s no solution to a particular situation. I nod and ask them to tap while telling me about their stress, or anger, or sadness. More often than not, they discover potential solutions they didn’t even believe existed, right there in real time.

If you feel rejected, helpless, or powerless, start tapping now.

When we’ve been on a path of self-discovery and self-improvement for a few years and haven’t seen the results we expected or were promised, it can be extremely frustrating! But that frustration—and the expectation of another negative outcome—is exactly what can keep us stuck. Oftentimes, we pile that frustration on top of negative feelings about ourselves and about our commitment to making change happen.

I say it all the time: using EFT makes us more resourceful. We feel like we have more bandwidth to face the world around us. It’s as if the brain turns on and lights up, the body aligns, and we can actually cope! It brings us to a place of peace and understanding understanding—about ourselves, about others, and about our life situations.

With EFT, we can change those unhealthy habits and patterns.

Truly, when we heal the past, our whole experience of life can change.

The challenge and the solution were described in memorable terms in September 1898 by William Crookes, a chemist and a physicist, in his presidential address on wheat delivered at the British Association’s annual meeting in Bristol. The most quoted sentence from his presentation was that “all civilised nations stand in deadly peril of not having enough to eat,” and he estimated that the rising demand would bring a global wheat supply shortfall as soon as 1930. But he also identified the most effective solution and its most important component: increased crop fertilization and higher applications of nitrogen, the macronutrient that most often limits wheat (and indeed all cereal) yields. Crookes correctly observed that neither the animal manures nor the planting of green manures (alfalfa, clover) could meet future needs, and that the supply of the era’s only important inorganic fertilizer, Chilean nitrates mined in the desert of Atacama, was obviously limited. What was needed was to tap the unlimited supply of atmospheric nitrogen, to change the inert molecule (N2) that forms nearly 80 percent of air’s mass into a reactive compound (preferably ammonia, NH3) that could be assimilated by crops and supply the macronutrient guaranteeing higher yields.

You don't have to be a super soldier like Captain America or infused with photon energy like Captain Marvel to make an impact. In fact, deferring to a solitary hero or leader to save us from all our problems brings us authoritarians and strongmen. We tap out, wait on the sidelines, and outsource all the work. When people come together around shared values, investing their time and talents to create solutions to a problem, that's when movement and change happen.

What tapping does, with amazing efficiency, is halt the fight-or-flight response and reprogram the brain and body to act—and react—differently. Let’s look at how that happens.

Rather than focusing on ride hailing per se, which is much narrower in scope, calling Uber a “transportation solution” taps the broader problem Uber is trying to solve. That, in turn, increased investment because it made the potential market seem much larger. A ride-hailing app? I can think of a few people who might need that or a few situations in which it might be useful. But a transportation solution? Wow, that seems a lot broader. Lots of people and companies could use something like that, and it seems to have lots of applications.

One of the exciting things about EFT is its flexibility. It can be very successfully combined with other systems and processes, including guided visualization.

Many of us have a false belief that nothing will change unless we become upset. The reality, however, is that we help effect change by positive action—not by being stressed out about the issue.

A life free of shoulds is a life full of choices. When we choose, we are at our most empowered, free and joyful.

This work is literally retraining the brain and body.

Whenever it feels right, say out loud what you wish you could have said back then. Tap along as you speak. Follow your intuition and speak your truth.

And let’s not forget having compassion for ourselves and for our journey. Instead of beating yourself up for reacting a certain way, for not being perfect, for not being able to have the control in your life that you want, ask yourself, “What happened?” and give yourself love and compassion in response.

What is clear is that tapping is an incredibly powerful tool for releasing the emotional energy that gets stored in our bodies.

there’s actually nothing wrong with experiencing negative thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and symptoms. I’d argue that it’s human to experience all of those at various times. It’s when those negative emotions get stuck—when they have no outlet—that your body can enter a state of imbalance that may contribute to dis-ease and prevent healing.

Whenever you’re tapping, look for key words and phrases that really strike a chord.

If we had a visual of the baggage we’re carrying around, it would either make us laugh, cry, or both! Picture every negative experience, emotion, or belief you have about past relationships. If each of them were a bag you had to carry around with you everywhere you go, would you get very far? It’s really quite simple. You can either choose to heal, let go, and return these bags to where they came from, or you can feel burdened by them for the rest of your life. How healthy can you be in your current relationship—or how successfully can you find the right one—if you’re carrying all this stuff around?

Tapping doesn’t take away the facts of what happened—like if someone cheated on you—but it does sever the trauma (baggage) associated with those facts. You retain the learning from the event without having to keep the uncomfortable feelings associated with it.

Adopting a next-step mentality can serve you immensely as you progress toward making your dreams come true.

The feeling of being overwhelmed can be so extreme it can paralyze you. Tapping is an important and simple tool to quiet that noise and move you to a place of peace. From there, you’ll have the resources to make the best decisions and take the next step.

Sometimes EFT is as simple as that: slotting a few minutes into your day. Tapping when you feel stuck, frustrated, or lazy. Of course, EFT is amazing for the huge challenges in our lives, but it works just as well for the little stuff. The thing is, it’s the little stuff that turns into big stuff. Procrastination is a little daily thing—but it’s a big life thing. It kills dreams, stops million-dollar ideas, and keeps people stuck for years. If your procrastination is really bad—as in you never get anything done, always put things off, and are miserable about it—then it’s likely there are some deep underlying beliefs or traumas creating this pattern. But more often than not, moving through daily procrastination is as simple as doing a little tapping, getting the energy flowing again, and then moving forward. Using EFT in this manner brings clarity, focus, and awareness.

Well … I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again—until it sinks in and becomes part of who you are. You must address the limiting beliefs, past events, and habitual emotions first. The rest of the stuff will fall into place. I’ve seen it happen again and again. I’ve experienced it firsthand and can testify to the results. Today, I spend my days doing what I love, with the people I love, and making a massive difference in the world. It’s not because I found some get-rich-quick scheme; it’s not because I inherited a lot of money or because I was hired by the right person. It’s because I cleared the limiting beliefs that were holding me back. From there, everything else fell into place. It can for you, too! But you’ve got to do the work … you’ve got to be meticulous in digging deep and finding what beliefs you hold, identifying the events that still have an emotional charge, and changing the emotions that keep you running the same patterns again and again.

You need to address your what ifs and your yes, buts. You need to look at the emotional and psychological limiting factors that you are choosing. When you do that, you get out of your own way. Only then can you avoid those patterns of self-sabotage that are all too familiar.

The key to this process is to get specific about your issues and your feelings and to be systematic about the tapping—go through all the different aspects of the issue that arise, one by one.

She had grown up afraid of clowns, all her friends knew she was afraid of clowns, and she took actions to make sure she didn’t face clowns in her life. This fear was part of the fabric of her life, her identity. Who would she be without it? We tapped on Even though I don’t know who I’ll be without this fear of clowns … and Even though I’m used to being afraid of clowns, I don’t know how to act without this fear, I deeply and completely accept myself. And so forth. These statements began opening up her mind and body to a new possibility, and she then started shaping a new identity without this limiting fear.

Even though I feel all this anxiety … Even though I feel like I can’t take a deep breath … Even though I have this knot in my stomach … Even though my body feels shaky … Even though I’m scared of falling … We systematically worked through the different aspects that were coming up in her mind and body.

When we began our session, I asked her to visualize being onstage, without the podium or her written speech, and to tell me what she experienced. Particularly, I wanted to know what she felt in her body. I find that focusing on physical sensations is a great way to get started addressing fears, because it helps us connect more fully to the feelings and determine what’s really going on.

This process continued, with more tapping, digging deeper and deeper, until she could no longer find any anxiety, stress, or worry about the speech. Instead, she reported, “I’m actually excited for this and starting to think about what I want to discuss. I could never go there before because I was too terrified of the whole experience!” I’ve mentioned it several times but it bears repeating because it’s so crucial. The way to get lasting results with fears or phobias is to dig deep and address all the aspects of the issue.

Tapping accessed the actual wound and just lifted it.

The key with cravings for anything is that you actually have to do the tapping for it to work. And that’s where addressing the underlying emotional causes, the “roots” of your cravings, is so important.

EFT is not a tool for making people do what you want; it’s about clearing emotional energy.

By clearing the negative emotional drivers behind blocked creativity and stunted performance, tapping gives you direct access to your natural talents. Once those talents can engage without interference from long-held fears and worries, you’ll be amazed by how well you can play, write, create, dance, sing, speak, sell, and do whatever it is you were born to do! You’ll be able to perform at your highest level more easily and more frequently and have more fun doing it.

Tapping can help you make all kinds of positive changes, including letting you overcome weird, unusual stressors or obstacles that may have become part of your life over the years.

Tapping, he explains, addresses the psychological symptoms through the body, which is an important and powerful resource for PTSD sufferers. “Psychologically, a trauma process is a down-spiraling vortex,” he says. That vortex often involves physical memories like the smell of fire or the feeling of water filling your lungs. Because tapping lets survivors access their emotions and their physical energy simultaneously, it can free them from trauma much faster than talk therapy.

When the question and desire are strong enough, an answer appears.

Getting started is easy, as I’ve said. I will go over each of the eight simple steps in detail later on, but I will list them for now: 1. Choose your “Most Pressing Issue” (MPI) and devise a reminder phrase (see pages 16 and 20). 2. Rate the intensity of your MPI on the 0-to-10 Subjective Units of Distress Scale (SUDS; see page 18). 3. Craft a setup statement (see page 18). 4. Tap on the karate chop point (see page 21) while repeating your setup statement three times. 5. Tap through the eight points in the EFT sequence (see page 21) while saying your reminder phrase out loud. Tap five to seven times at each point. 6. Once you have finished tapping the eight points in the sequence, take a deep breath. 7. Again rate the intensity of your issue using the 0-to-10 scale to check your progress. 8. Repeat as necessary to get the relief you desire.

Once again, here are the eight steps of EFT tapping. It may be helpful to bookmark this page so you can come back to it as you move on to the chapters that follow. That said, most people learn these steps rather quickly, so you may not need this reference for long! 1. Choose your Most Pressing Issue (MPI). 2. Rate your MPI using the 0-to-10 SUDS. 3. Craft a setup statement, using your MPI to fill in the blank: Even though __________________, I deeply and completely accept myself. 4. Speak your setup statement three times while tapping on the karate chop point. 5. Tap through the eight points in the EFT sequence while saying your reminder phrase out loud. Tap five to seven times at each point, starting with the eyebrow and finishing at the top of the head. 6. Take a deep breath. 7. Rate the intensity of your MPI using the 0-to-10 scale. 8. Repeat, or move on to a different MPI.

What do I know to be true about this pain? What have my doctors told me is going on with my body? What did I read online about what’s going on with my body? What do I believe to be true about my condition?

If you feel any physical pain, you owe it to yourself to explore tapping.

Tapping will help with the frustration that often accompanies the early stages of learning something new. Tapping on the feelings that come up when you’re outside your comfort zone allows you to hang in there long enough for the new thing to become the familiar thing! Even though it’s too hard to lose weight … Even though I don’t want to work that hard … Even though it’s going to take too much effort to figure it all out … Even though I don’t think I have what it takes to stick with it, I deeply and completely accept myself.

Maintaining a stable identity is one of the strongest drives in our nature.

Tapping can help you forgive, let go, and move on.

Once I did the tapping, I felt myself relax. Soon the cognitive shift happened.
