Today’s book: Everyday Enlightenment by Dan Millman—a practical, heart-centered roadmap through 12 gateways that guide you from who you are to who you’re meant to become. It blends spiritual depth with real-world action.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Gateway 1: Discover Your Worth. You’re born complete—stop deducting points from yourself and start living from a place of intrinsic value.
- Just do it: Michael Jordan can’t always choose the shot, but he always takes it—just like we should with our calling.
- Seize the moment. Live in the point-in-time—the “punctum”—and you live life fully, without chasing big vague goals.
- Master fear by feeling it. Elite performers tremble, then act anyway—true courage starts with acknowledging the fear.
- Serve with purpose. Real growth happens when ordinary moments become expressions of kindness, contribution, and love.
Everyday enlightenment isn’t a distant peak—it’s the moments you choose today. Which gateway will you step through now?
As always, check out the Notes on this great book. If you haven’t seen The Way of the Peaceful Warrior yet—the movie based on his great book—check it out, that along with Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits. Those were the first two books I ever read on my self-development journey. Hope you enjoy!
