Closing The 18-Inch Gap Podcast-EP013: You Are a Diamond

Closing The 18 Inch Gap Podcast

Diamonds are one of the hardest known rocks to exist on Earth. The resemblance of you being a diamond also speaks of how not only you are formed but also your strength. An unbreakable inner strength that keeps you going.

A diamond is created by pressure formed in darkness (darkness representing the loneliness/solitude)

A diamond must be mined out of the ground and brought into the light, you are being discovered not only by someone else by even yourself.

Excess rocks must be removed as well as the dirt, a cleansing process.

Then it is shaped by cutting it get clarity and form, growing pains if you will.

After this process the diamond is ready to be displayed to the world.

It is said that there was an ancient person named Ali Hafed that lived near the River Indus. He was very well off; he was very rich. Yet he felt poor when he was told what diamonds were and their value by a priest that he followed. So, he sold his farm and left his family in search of this diamond mine in after searching for years he died a broken man and penniless.

I like to compare a diamond to a seed. Let’s look at a seed for a moment and see the similarities:

· The seed that is in you, which are your ideas, dreams, desires, and much more have been planted in darkness.

· The darkness of which I speak is that of which you do not have a full sense of clarity of.

· That darkness can also bring turmoil, pain, warfare, and many other things that can manifest itself during this time.

· But it is necessary for it to come through darkness first.

· It needs to be tested, it needs to be sought out, it needs to be desired, and it needs to be found.

· And as a seed grows it will breakthrough out of that darkness and start showing signs of life.

How does this relate to you? Let’s quickly review the process again:

You are destined for a purpose. You were created for a reason, and it is your duty and due diligence to find what that purpose is and fulfill it to the maximum.

It is said that the cemeteries of the richest places in the entire world.

The reason for this is because those cemeteries are full of perhaps many, many people that never fulfil their true purpose.

In those cemeteries lie many dreams and desires of so many things that so many people left this earth without accomplishing them.

Speaking of cemeteries, what if you had the chance to read your own obituary before you actually passed away?

What if what you read was a misunderstanding so horrible that it would change the world?

Well, many believe this is exactly what happened, and it was the birth of the NOBEL PRIZE. I go into this in this in great detail in this episode.

I also hear way too often people that are just unhappy where they are.

Could it be that they are not finding or fulfilling their true purpose?

Could it be that they feel deep inside that there is something better or bigger for them?

Could it be that they feel a calling them to something greater and higher than where they are?

Let me ask you, what’s holding you back?

Something to think about.

But remember, you are a diamond, it’s just that you are going through a process..

Are you ready to shine?

As you already know by now, you are a diamond!
