WEALTH CREATION WITH MR. YOSSI GHINSBERG
WEALTH CREATION WITH YOSSI GHINSBERG
During my visit to Puerto Rico in October last year I had the enormous privilege to listen to one of Mr Yossi Ghinsberg well known “out of the box” educational seminars. It was about the true meaning of an entrepreneurial mindset
In 1981, while traveling in South America; Yossi was separated from his friends and survived (against all odds) three weeks in the midst of the uncharted Bolivian Amazon. Nobody in the world thought that he was still alive. This is probably one of the most amazing survival stories ever known. The ultimate in self reliance.
He was born and raised in Israel and served three years in the Israeli navy on the Red Sea where he befriended the Bedouins of the Sinai Desert who greatly influenced him with their wholesome philosophy and nomadic lifestyle. He is a sought after inspirational and motivational speaker and at times seminar-leader to the world’s top corporations and organizations throughout the globe.
Yossi said: “I speak to audiences worldwide usually in corporate environments and one of my favourite themes is ‘think out of the box’”
The box is an all-encompassing place, it is our creed, our religion and we are willing to defend it to our life. It is hard for us to accept that in fact we are all products of conditioned and manipulated environments, that we are detached from our true essence: we are free living beings, here to express ourselves and grow on the abundant planet earth. Instead we cling and won’t let go of what we were taught to believe and accept as truth.
True entrepreneurship does lie in the departure of the ‘Herd’. Being the victim of you circumstances is truly a mindset and at the end of the day a choice. I personally know it is frickin’ hard to think outside the box. Only with consistent awareness of my being and choices I make will I be able to start living outside my boxes. So a huge thank you to Mr Yossi Ghinsberg for that special moment in Puerto Rico and making a difference in the “boxed” world we try to break out of. This to me is true wealth creation.
By the way: Yossi is a yoga practitioner, he does not own a TV and he does not play golf.
