He was speaking about 2 different worlds...one a fixed world where there is scarcity, competition, and people are looking for wealth and fame. The other is a world of possibility. A world of abundance. We have a choice of which world we live in. He illustrates this using a 15 year old cello player. This kid was not someone he knew, except to meet him while he was in town. This kid, who Zander thought was 17 years old, plays a piece. Zander then talks and "coaches" the kid...changing his frame of reference about how and why he practices and plays. Even I, with no musical ear at all, could see and hear the difference in his playing. It was amazing! Phenomenal. Brilliant.
This illustrated a few points. First of all, it's how I want to live my life. In possibility. Of what can happen...what will happen. Sounds a lot like the Law of Attraction, right? Second, Zander showed me that this is the kind of mother I want to be. I want to see all of the possibilities of/for my kids. And I want them to see them too. I already believe that they have the whole world at their feet. They truly can do anything they want to.
