Miracles
Habits 2 Goals: The Habit Factor® Podcast with Martin Grunburg
The Three Circles of Behavior
Life is like a dew drop on a grain of, or not a grain of sand. What is not a miracle about water itself? Just water. If you're oriented, you wake up every day and you're like, this is a freaking miracle.
“The greatest miracle is the ordinary.” ~Henry David Throreau

Wouldn’t it be great if there were more miracles in your life?
Recently, a woman approached me to explain that a miracle was supposed to happen to her in a few days.
“Uh… this is it.” I replied, “This (life) is the miracle. It’s all a freakin’ miracle!”
Apparently, Rumi proclaimed, “The greatest miracle is that we are awake and alive.”
Einstein reportedly said: “Miracles happen every day, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them everywhere.”
Now, from the great Persian philosopher and the brilliant physicist to Insane Clown Posse (band). Yes, ICP! 😀 🤡 👇
I lean on ICP’s brilliance and their fantastic song “Miracles” for some additional inspiration and backup (a few lyrics)…
If magic is all we've ever knownThen it's easy to miss what really goes onBut I've seen miracles in every wayAnd I see miracles every day
Oceans spanning beyond my sightAnd a million stars way above 'em at nightWe don't have to be high to look in the skyAnd know that's a miracle opened wide
Look at the mountains, trees, the seven seasAnd everything chilling underwater, pleaseHot lava, snow, rain and fogLong neck giraffes, and pet cats and dogs
The real challenge is that we’ve been desensitized.
We’re swimming in miracles.
Like the proverbial fish in water who do not know what water is.
“If anything is a miracle, everything is a miracle.” Einstein supposedly observed.
It doesn’t matter who observed it.
It’s the orientation and the awakening that matters.
EVERYTHING IS A MIRACLE. (Repeat).
The question is, “How does one reorient themselves to this magical awareness and disposition?
Here’s how:
AWARENESS.
SERVICE.
GRATITUDE.
MEDITATION.
&
A LOT OF PRACTICE.
Yes, cultivating these habits by tracking them can help!
Be sure to follow P.A.R.R. 🙌
It’s difficult to notice and appreciate any miracle when you’re angry, bitter, jealous, frustrated, and/or ungrateful.
Or, with your face buried in your phone.
In fact, it’s arguably impossible.
Take a moment to look up! 👆 Look around.
Did you notice that butterfly?
“When you change the way you look at things,” Wayne Dyer use to say, “The things you look at change.”
Enjoy the show!
