I find that many people feel a nagging irritation with the 'guru culture' but have a hard time articulating it. If they could, they'd make better decisions. This post draws a sharp contrast to help people articulate what's been nagging at them. It's a picture of two stereotypes, not an attack on any individual. Thanks for your comment, Dov I agree with you and with Guy. I find that many people feel a nagging irritation with the ‘guru culture’ but have a hard time articulating it.

This post draws a sharp contrast to help people articulate what’s been nagging at them. It’s a picture of two stereotypes, not an attack on any individual.

Thanks for your comment,

This holds true in all parts of life. Everybody wants it now. Nobody is willing to put in the time, effort, or money. The few that do, and stick with it, achieve their goals. Thanks for your insight :0) Very thoughtful Dov.

Picking up on Guy's observation above, I'd say that Becoming's probably start as wannabe. The wannabe's that make it are the ones that realise that to get what they "wannabe" they need to become a "becoming". Very astute post Dov.

My guess is most people are a bit of both. Generally I have an aversion to "boxing" people but you needed it here to make the point. Where did that word come from "Becoming" ?

Too many people in this world are looking for the quick fix, "to be comfortable" as you so clearly put it. But the truth is that if you are bringing something of value to the world, something that will make lasting change not only in your life but in the lives of those you touch, it will take work. More than that, it will take a belief in what you are doing, determination, and a will that cannot be defeated. I truly believe a "Becoming" is always one. Even when they reach success, they continue to learn, grow, improve, and give back as you do. This is such a great article, there is hardly more to say.

Too many so called "Marketers" give out very unrealistic messages to people. It's nice to see that you have a grounded realistic approach. Great blog, Dov.
