“What makes a student ready? We’ll do this in a short series of blogs. First. what makes a student? A student is one who takes an interest in a particular subject, studies and learns. Then the student applies what is learned. Application and experiment brings success.
A student needs to be open, willing and teachable. Many people claim they are, but most certainly they are not. They are deceived. They deceive themselves. I understand this because while I always thought I was open and willing I discover how much I was not.
If we aren’t open, willing and teachable how can we be taught? The lessons presented fall on deaf ears and closed minds. ONLY when the student is ready can the lesson, teacher or master appear. When open, willing to listen, absorb and do as instructed success is likely.

When I was a teenager, more than anything, I wanted someone who would show me the ropes in show business. I so wanted a mentor. One day, by chance, I met a successful man in the movie business. He had many successful proteges, and he saw something in me.
He was willing to guide me for free. He didn’t want anything in return. Truly, nothing, other than the satisfaction of seeing me make something of myself in the business I wanted to succeed in. That alone, terrified me. I was always second-guessing his motives.
But I told him I was willing to do anything professionally it took to make it. I said that again and again. I said it. I thought I meant it. I really did. As I looked back on the time spent with him through the years I can see how closed, unwilling, frightened and reserved I was.

Next time I’ll share some more. It’s important to get to a place within us when we are available for learning to be poured into us or arise within us. No one really teaches us anything. They share and present and if we’re open we apply it. We only understand it after we apply it and never before. That’s just how learning works. Understand this and you can move forward more easily. Practice being open. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
