Let’s hearken back to my schooldays as a dandy & diligent pupil.
Specifically an open day in 1999, give or take a year.
I was showing some potential new students round my school when I
wandered into the maths room.
Nowadays I’m sure the maths room would be stuffed with interactive whiteboards and virtual reality headsets.
But 25 years ago, the maths room at my school was brimming with wooden rulers,
dusty erasers and big chunky textbooks.
Oh yes – and a Rubik’s Cube.
I’ve always loved puzzles. And I’ve always been fascinated by Rubik’s Cubes.
I remember entering the maths room with a gaggle of prospective pupils just as a teacher grabbed hold of the Rubik’s Cube and started to fiddle about with it.
For a moment or two, I forgot I was meant to be showing students round. I was intrigued by the spectacle in front of me.
Weren’t Rubik’s Cubes meant to be impossible to solve?
As I watched, I saw the teacher twist the sides of the cube one way and then another. Sometimes he’d rotate the whole cube in his hands, then he’d keep twisting.
He had the look of a man who knew what he was doing.
As I watched, I could see colours start to congregate. Cubes started to match other cubes. Rows started to match other rows.
I kept watching, transfixed.
Was this maths teacher really about to solve this Rubik’s Cube?
After a few more twists and
turns, the teacher dropped the cube back on the table.
It was perfectly solved.
I was amazed. It was like watching real life magic.
I remember feeling a tingle of excitement. If this was possible, what else was possible?
I call moments like these “Crossing the Rubikon”.
These are the moments where there’s a point of no return. A point where things look one way until all of a sudden…
Bam!
Without any warning, life looks very different.
Most parents I speak to say that having a baby is a Crossing the Rubikon moment too.
(Crossing the Bubikon?)
Two weeks and I'll find out for myself...
Another Crossing the Rubikon moment?
When I took part in Michael Neill’s program Creating the Impossible 2023.
I’m not exaggerating one iota when I say that life looked radically different after that 90 day program.
I made countless discoveries about the creative process, how “nothing” becomes “something”, the role my thoughts play in my day to day life,
where our experience of life comes from, how we’re being guided, how much say I have in creating my own life and just how playful, light & FUN creating can be.
But I’m not even scratching the surface. The program was insight after insight after insight.
I’ve got to know a number of people from that program and it seems this CTI experience is almost universal.

p.s. if you sign up to Creating the Impossible (CTI) before 7pm UK Time (that's about 10 hours from now), I'll happily hand you two bonuses.
The first bonus is two 1 hour 1-on-1 coaching calls with me.
(I currently charge £500 for three 1 hour 1-on-1 calls – I’ll let you do the maths)
You can use these two calls however you like. Need some clarity on a decision you’ve been mulling over? Got a challenge you’d like to overcome? Want to spend less time in your head? Would you love to find more day-to-day energy, joy & peace of mind?
Nothing is off the table. It’s totally up
to you.
The second bonus?
I’m hosting a one-off group Zoom session for anyone on my newsletter who joins CTI.
I’m calling this session CTI Cheat Code.
During the session, I’ll be sharing tips, insights and lessons from when I completed the program in 2023. It’s kind of like a backstage pass so you can squeeze every last drop of magic out of your own CTI experience.
I haven’t set a date and time for this call yet. But it’ll probably be a weekday evening UK time in the next few weeks.
To collect these two bonuses, you MUST email me your CTI receipt by 7pm UK time on Saturday.
If your receipt lands in my inbox even a minute later, it’s too late.
As I said above, that's about 10 hours from now.
Time to get
moving.
