Visioning : Emotional Attachment Don't call it loyalty, one is human, the other is doggy. Same goes with two sex positions. For a long time, emotional attachment made us weak, it was something for low-EQ people. But of course, the future will make us high-EQ people, and emotional attachment will be the strongest power you can possibly harvest. Emotional attachment will be done between humans, but also with things, works, causes. As soon as a team forms a strong emotional bond with each other and their work, they become the most powerful entity living in this world. They become the best that it's ever seen. Of course, this doesn't happen overnight, it takes desire, perseverance, and curiosity. Those turn into Faith, Love, and Passion, which creates Emotional Attachment. I can never see Google being founded by only one person. I can never see Facebook being founded by only one person. I can never see anything being ever done by only one person. Along the way, a movement is created. People start clearing out their vision. Obstacles come their way - they're making change, that's awesome !!! They go through some seriously tough times. At this point, most people would quit. But Not Them. This creates more and more, always more, emotional attachment. You really do want to see the thing happen ! At this point, anybody curious enough to ask about it really knows that the thing is going to happen, No Matter What. Even if it's in a long, long time. "Oh well I don't have it", "Of course you don't. You have to push it, then it'll come". Tiny Success : School Lately, I've been resenting school a little bit. I'm not learning Personal Development at school, this is not time that I am spending Mastering my Domain Of Mastery. It literally is time wasted. But as always, a change of perspective on the problem is the key to finding the solution. As I've been practising love of the world recently, I've started to love school. And there you go, Personal Development. *Big smile on my face* Tiny Failure : Chocolate I've been eating too much Dark Chocolate. It's baaad for me. I must quit it now. Go on a Cleanse. No Dark Chocolate For A Month. No more bananas either, they have too much sugar, which makes me hungry. No more (I don't know what it's called in english, but here it is in french, tisane) either. I think I need to get my mind around the idea of eating for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, And Nothing Else. I can see that it really prevents my mind from thinking straight. And I see the Well Being that will come from Not Having Those ! Habits Meditation : I meditated with the curtains opened and the sunlight coming in, it was nice. Visualisation : I visualised about me and a group of people in my private jet doing work, trying to come up with a solution to a problem, brainstorming, then me having an epiphany, which gave someone else an epiphany, then someone else, etc. Until we decide to write down our epiphanies on a piece of paper, cutting our ideas in small parts of the idea. And then mixing it all into one Master Idea that was super-smart ! Which affected ALL sectors of our lives in different ways. A lot of emotions were mixed in. Dinner : I told my mom and my brother that I was changing the world. I know that they don't care about my work. They just care whether I'm telling them about my work.

Visioning : Better Than I Ever Will Be How can I change someone so that they become not just as good as I am, not just better than I am, but even better than I ever will be ? If you can answer that question, than you are the best thing that ever happened to this world. "That day I walked into the lounge, looking to get some green juice and to relax to some chilly music. I did that, and then Harvey came up to me told me that he had an idea for his new seminar, and he wanted me to take a look at it. I did, and something happened. I felt this deep depression coming from my heart, slowly filling the rest of my body. That night I burst into tears. At that moment though, I told him I couldn't give him any feedback, it was better than I ever could do. That night, I felt into the depression, which filled my whole body with water, and tried, through any means possible, to release it. Then it turned into deep humility, the kind I had finally gotten used to feel, but this time it was stronger, couldn't handle it either. The next day, I got up and called Harvey, he had had a pretty emotional evening as well, we met up and worked on his project all day, and then the next day, and the whole week, and the whole month. We've been working with each other ever since, and we'll die working together." Tiny Success : A Great Leader My vision of becoming a great leader is becoming clearer and clearer. Thank god I had this initial moment of fear, and thank god my top strengths are bravery, valour, perseverance, and self-regulation. I realised that the best thing I will ever do is to connect a group of people through a culture that ends in them being better than I ever will be, they will become my legacy. How many people have had this insight ? Also, this makes me happy because now I truly know what the reward is for pushing through obstacles. And especially how great it is ! Which can only help me help others. Because now it's something I truly mastered. And I can tell others about what True Mastery is about, from a real master's place. Tiny Failure : Why Don't I Talk To Them ? So my mother wasn't home, and both my brother and my dad got home late, and I hadn't cooked. I was supposed to make fish, except I didn't know which fish it was and I had no intention of spending time finding out. It's like they don't know what I do when I come home, in fact they don't know what I do at all. I should talk to them. Should ? Or MUST ? I MUST talk to them ! I have a plan, I'll talk to my mom Friday afternoon, we'll have a long hard talk. I'll visualise it the day before, and I'll of course include all ingredients of leadership (love, better than I ever will be, care, change, etc.). Habits Meditation : I sat well, and it went perfectly. That's Awesome ! Visualising : I get distracted in Affirmations. As soon as I catch myself drifting off course, I bring myself back on track. Well, I guess that's normal, our mind, especially in our time, can't focus well. I practised love of the world today, visualised myself in various situations where love of the world was critical, this made me happy. Dinner : Ate really late due to people coming home late, but ate well. My little sister isn't there to talk shit on me every time I open my mouth, so, that's a thing (and there you go, I resent her right now, even though she's not there, ugh, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!).

Visioning : Constant Change Growth, Learning, Courage, Contribution, Generosity, Love, Peace of Mind, Connection, Loyalty, and even Perspective, and probably others. They all have the strong underlying principle of change. The world is changing at all times whether we like it or not, and of course we all love it. That's what fear is all about, this why you and I make a lot of effort to quit our bad habits, and to install powerful habits, because those allow us to thrive in uncertain (or certain, you might say) times. As soon as one thing changes, another does. One part of your life got awesome, now you work on the next one, and then the next one, and the next one. And then you start changing the life of someone else, and then someone else, and then, a hundred years later, the whole world has changed, thanks to you The nature of most of our changes is simple : do the thing that's exactly the opposite of what you've been doing. Instead of running away from fear, you lean into it. Instead of quitting when you hit an obstacle, you overcome it. Instead of chasing one woman, you move on to the next one when she isn't interested. Instead of always being busy, you sit down and do nothing (that's called meditation). Everybody and every culture change at all times, this creates growth, and happiness. Great leaders take action when things change, they use the uncertain times so that they can establish new-found certainty in a better world. Something doesn't work, let me shake off the system to change it into something that does work. Tiny Success : An Epiphany While Reading A Book So I was reading Tribes by Seth Godin and I had epiphany, but first, let me go back a bit. I've been following Seth Godin for a long time now and I've always loved his style, his way of writing, and talking, and doing things in general, he shows his personality and I love it. I guess my mind associated good emotions with that, and what happened is that it kinda went on a search to see exactly what it was that was pleasurable, and today, it found it. How do you give a powerful why ? By showing that the whole system is changing, and that you can embrace the change. Tiny Failure : Criticizing Whenever my mind is not full of visioning/life purpose related thoughts, I criticize. I just do ! I do ! It's almost as if I couldn't do anything but that ! Yesterday I thought to myself that I would give love to my family whenever they would be an obstacle to my journey towards the fulfilment of my life purpose. I'm going to do the same for strangers. If I'm going to make a change in this world, I have to accept it, even love it, because it has so much potential. Loving the status quo is the first step to leadership. Habits Meditation : I still can't find a good way to sit, I need to look it up. Visualisation : I envisioned interacting with my followers when I'll be a great leader. I like the way I do things, I even went to go look for a quote in a book because I thought it was the perfect response to a comment. I like this, it makes me happy Dinner : I didn't think any negative thoughts about my family today. After dinner I talked with my brother and I was able to show him that he only resisted the change, nothing else. And I told him that I did all those things for other people, and I told him I loved it because of that. And, most importantly, I was not angry after the talk, for the first time ever.

Visioning : Generosity My sister vacuumed my bedroom, that was a generous act. I decided to do a remarkable product, that was a generous act. My mother went online and tried a new recipe for dinner, that was a generous act. You're reading this, this is a generous act. Leo created a Life Purpose course, that was a generous act. Seth Godin writes on his blog every day, and shares great ideas, this is a generous act. The people at TED share their conferences, this is a generous act. My sister complained about vacuuming my bedroom, believe it or not, this is a generous act. Every thing that we do that creates a change (positive or negative) in somebody else is a generous act. All my life is a generous act, because everything that I do is to help other people. I get up and go to school, because I can't just quit college, I'm preparing myself to work fully on my life purpose, and there you go, a generous act. Tiny Success : Visioning Tonight, I went to Leo's Life Purpose course and re-watched his video about Vision, because I felt like I needed to do better visioning in my journalling habit. Now I know what I'm doing wrong, and, every time, I'll try to do my best at visioning. It's a success because it really advances me in my journalling habit, but also in my Leadership works, which is great. Tiny Failure : Bad Relationship Management This is something I do too often. They say something to me, I don't see it coming, I don't say anything for just that reason, and then, I go to my bedroom and I answer them back. For example, tonight, my mom yelled at me because she had to do the cooking even though my dad had asked me to "worry about the cooking when you come home from school". I didn't answer back, went to my bedroom and yelled back in my head "I have much more important things to do ! I'm changing the world here ! Stop asking me to do BULLSHIT !". I know I told myself that when my dad had asked me to do the thing in the first place. Next time, I'll tell them I love them, and I'll tell them what's really going on. Habits Meditation : I feel I don't sit right, I go to quickly into it and then I can't move any more, I need to put careful thought into how I sit before I get into it, and set the timer on. Visualisation : About the gym. Taking my Tesla Model S to the gym, sweating and feeling the blood get into the muscles. Then a cold shower, the hyperventilation, the cold cooling down my hot, active body. And then going back home with my girl. Meditating in front of each other, locking eye contact. Then Visualising next to each other, and then Journalling next to each other. All along, this sense of team work, and companionship, feels great. Dinner : I told my mom I liked her food, it's like she had completely forgotten all about the fact that I didn't do the cooking, she did. Something interesting because it shows that it's not that I didn't do the cooking, or that I didn't do what they've asked. It's just that she hates taking risks, putting herself on the line to get criticized (because that's what happens most of the time that she cooks). Once again, I made it about me, when it wasn't at all. Like. Every. Damn. Time.

Visioning : Bravery I'm a brave person, and you are too. My sister's a brave person, and my cousin is too. Everybody's a brave person. Even before The Change happened, we were all brave, except in a different way. See, back in the early 20th century, and then later in the early 21st century (in the Julian calendar, obviously), we were really brave at making excuses, giving to fear and resistance, listening to our lizard brains. But now, we actually have the bravery to actually put ourselves out there, it's culturally accepted. What is bravery, ultimately ? It's deliberately making the choice to do something that we know is going to bring some kind of suffering. Not making that choice is brave, because it brings suffering as well, whether we like it or not. And so in a sense we're like machines which feel pain and resistance whenever they're not doing what they're commanded to do. Just like that german kid got really angry at his computer because he couldn't play a video game. Well our Higher Selves beat up our Lower Selves as well, and vice versa. Imagine now a world where we actually do the right things, where our higher selves beat our higher selves up, as in "I have a great idea. Dammit. Now I must change the world with it." And then you do. We all do. We need this, more than ever, the world is changing. A world full of leaders, brave enough not just to be leaders, but to change the crazy lone nut into a leader, by following her. Brave enough to recommend things to your friends. Brave enough not to censure yourself because you don't "hurt someone's feelings", when they need it most. Bravery, Perseverance, Purpose, Faith, Self-Regulation, Mercy, Generosity, Connection, Courage. Tiny Success : Journalling Today I realised that actually this new journalling habit I'm putting in place is much harder and much more powerful than I imagined. See, I realise that I say a lot of the same words when I don't have anything to say. I realise that keeping it in tight time limits actually forces me to make things short, concise, accurate, tangible, and correct. It disciplines me to ship things that I feel aren't ready. It galvanizes me. Also, it helps me keep things real, it holds my feet to the fire of reality, as some might say (that was useless). Oh yeah and also I made great use of my time today, that makes me happy. I'm definitely advancing in my journey towards fulfilling my life purpose. Tiny Failure : Delusion So, for some reason, at times today, I just went into this mode of telling myself I had no creative ideas, even though I clearly do. I deluded myself. I think this was about fear, resistance, whatever you might call it. I need to cut that shit out, and bring myself back on track. As some might say Why did I do that ? Is it like automatic resistance ? The new kind I didn't know about ? I need to cut that shit out, and bring myself back on track ! Habits Meditation : Not much to say here, it went well. Visualisation : I visualised humility. I imagined myself in different situations where I would feel great and powerful feelings, which were mostly humility. Why me ? Why not somebody else ? Why not my big brother ? Why not my dad ? Why not my little sister ? Why me ? This is the kind of questions that I just can't answer. Something interesting happened then. I imagined myself reading a book. And I didn't like it, because it could give me the answer to those questions, and put away my sense of humility. Dinner : I realised that my mother accepts what I do, she just doesn't take it seriously. My father doesn't want his status quo changed, my big sister's just not willing to do the work. But it's only my little sister who rejects what I do. Perhaps because she's in the worst psychological place, which means she's going to be the first one to do that, which is great

Visioning : Our Playground So, yesterday I introduced my concept of chaos, and today I want to put more depth into what I think is going to happen. Everybody has a playground, if my playground is similar to yours, than that means that how we play is different, and why we play is the same. If you and I have very different playgrounds, but the ways we play are similar, then again, we play for the same reasons. What happens when we don't play for the same reasons ? Can our ways be similar ? Can our playgrounds be similar ? Of course not. And this right here is why our society has been that way, but now, our whys are becoming similar, and of course, society is changing. Take into account the Graves model of psychological evolution, a Green person will never behave the same as an Orange person (although she might have had, before she turned green, but you see my point). And you know I love this because this is what leadership is about, and not just what, but also why we have leaders in the first place. Now, why do we have playgrounds in the first place ? We have those because it's who we are, it's how we do things, and it's what we do. People take on a lifelong journey of personal development because they love themselves, the world, truth, life. People acquire amazing health, great careers, spiritual development, amazing relationships, and on and on, because they do personal development. And people are dedicated to learning how to do those things because it bridges the gap between why and what. Tiny Success : Tiny Successes Today, I got my ass moving towards truly understanding what leadership is about, also understood that I still have to figure out more of the 'what, how, and why leadership'. I've also realised that I don't lack creativity, or originality. I've also talked to my mom about this whole business, leadership, Life Purpose thing that I'm starting to undertake, which I hadn't done before. so that was good. I'm going to keep her in the loop, tell her more, get feedback, just get this going. Tiny Failure : Time I guess I could have made better use of my time. Yeah, I definitely could have. Overall, it was still pretty good, I'm not beating myself up here, but I think that, what I could do to make things better would be to plan out my day while I'm eating breakfast, think about all the things that I must do during the day, and just do them first. How could I do this effectively ? By taking into account all the important things that are on my mind. Why do I do this ? Because it makes me feel prouder at the end of the day, and because now, after having quit TV, I feel like this is a stepping stone to using my time efficiently. Habits Meditation : I feel like the thinking that I do in meditation is highly valuable thinking about my business, my work, my Life Purpose. And yet, I don't take it seriously and I throw it out the window. Interesting. Visualisation : Today, I visualised about having dinner with my family and discussing my next big project with them, and we had amazing foods, music, and we had this whole master-mind group thing going. Then I was thinking deeply about what we had said, and I applied it into my work. What really characterized today's session was that I went and tried to perceive the scene not just from my perspective but also from everybody else's, which was great. Dinner : So my dad has decided to lose weight, which I thought was a great opportunity to swoop in here and come with my health advice. And I realised something, they have a status quo that they don't want changed. They don't trust me enough to adopt mine, we lack rapport. He might want to lose weight, but he doesn't do that to live a great life, he does that because external stimuli. That makes me sick, and there we go, we can't work together.

For those of us out there trying to change the world, trying to become really powerful leaders, or even just being frustrated that the people around us don't change, this is really helpful. In this program, Tony Robbins gives us a clear understanding of what it means to make a change happen in somebody else. He gives a series of steps as long as some tools that really help us make change in any human being, even ourselves. What I like most about it is how much you can adapt his advice to whatever technique you already are using. It gives a structure to the stories you tell, to the subconscious reprogramming techniques you use, etc. If you can't afford to go to one of his Leadership seminars, this is perfect for you. He's been using those techniques himself at his own seminars and it's been working wonders, I've tried them on my sister, and it really worked. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to create a change.

So, I know skepticism is good, if it doesn't turn into an ego defence mechanism. But I'm having a hard time understanding exactly why, and what can we do with that ? Any help will be greatly appreciated

@Brian Greendahl Yes !! Exactly !! My intuition told me that, but for some reason, I could not elicit it clearly, like you did Thank you ! @Henri I completely agree with your definition of ignorance ! And I like your way of dealing with sceptics, it is empowering. Thank you.

You're confused ? Good ! I get confused too Hell, I can't even keep track of how many times I get scared. I've always found that when breaking bad habits, it's good to project them into the future, because that way I can link poison to them and it gives me leverage to quit them. So maybe you can do the same. Try to imagine what it would be like to meditate for 12 hours a day, and then do the same for Life Purpose work, and see what resonates with you the most, see what's most authentic to you

1. Take concepts 1 by 1 Depending on which kind of learning resources you take, one concept can be one chapter, one video, or one section of a video course, etc. See for yourself, but generally speaking, one concept = 30, 60, or 90 minutes depending on the resource itself. I personally do one concept per day. 2. Come up with a story for "Why ?" Have you noticed that they always give you a reason for why you should take their advice seriously ? Have you noticed that they always give you examples and stories about the concept being applied in real life ? They do that because it creates a placebo effect, which amplifies the results that you get. Only problem is, they don't know what's going on in your head, they don't know your life, they don't know you as much as you do. This is why you have to find a reason for why this advice is important to you. Here's a good structure for your story "Here's all the crap results I get right now, here's the advice, here's all the amazing results I would get if I applied the advice". 3. Come up with a story for "Why not ?" One's man trash is an other man's treasure. Where do you think that comes from ? The advice that you get can be extremely useful or extremely useless to different people. Try to imagine a situation in which this advice might be useless. That way, your mind clearly understands what the advice is for. That's it. Hope this helps.

Hi there, J.K. Rowling is a billionaire, you will make loads of money with writing, or with anything you consider your Life Purpose, for that matter. However, I sense that you feel like you need money to do self-improvement, that's wrong. Take Responsibility. Don't Play the Victim. Try to find the best way of developing yourself right now. Most people, even in this community, do not do this. This is a Trap set by our lower self to prevent us from doing great work. But you better believe that pushing through this will greatly contribute to accomplishing your goals. Hope this helps

Mozart first started to learn to play the piano when he was 3, Tiger Woods first held a golf club when he was 18 months old - yes, that's right. Those guys, like many other young prodigies, simply started to do their things because their parents made them. And over time, deep domain knowledge combined with great skill created passion. This is what it means to teach yourself to love what you do. Unless there's a massive breach of integrity in the passion that you want to follow, you can take anything, learn it, and end up loving it. However, accept that you will have moments where painful work will happen, at first, then when you're installed in it, you're happy. When we're young, our mind is still fresh, it's not set in its ways, never changing anything, or any of that. Also, we live in a very connected, globalised, rich, and free society. It's extremely easy to pick up any basic subject, committing ourselves to learning about it, and end up creating a passion out of it. It makes sense to save ourselves up a few years by following our already present passions. This is why most people tell you to follow your passion. People who don't have a passion simply weren't exposed to enough things, or didn't commit themselves to learn more about what they've seen, they're highly culturally-not socially- isolated. Think back to your past, realise that you've always been wanting to follow something, build skills and learn about it, create great things with it, accept that resistance will be a part of the journey, and you'll love the work that you do.

Hi. I struggled with that as well, I found a solution. Basically, what needs to happen is learning. Go on Udemy, and find an expensive course that's on sale about a subject that you like. It's great to invest 20$ in a course that was 200-300$ because you get really high quality information for a tiny price. Our you could go on Coursera and find a specialisation, this will take you 6 or more months to complete, but by the end of it, you will have made a big commitment to your art. And, most importantly, start creating stuff that pleases you, even if you're not going to do anything with it. Ask yourself what you want out of your art. Ask yourself whet you want to do with that thing you're creating. Best of luck.

While college is neither necessary nor sufficient, it's safe. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, and a multitude of others quit college and are much - MUCH - more successful now. However, if you want to leave college just because you don't like their way of teaching, or some other aspect of college, that's not going to work out well for you. I like staying in college because it allows me to build powerful habits that are going to be extremely valuable for me 3 years from now, when college is over. Also, college is cool to learn how to socialise, how to date, etc. Plus, what if I could teach a thing or two to my professors and friends, that's cool too. And also I like to tell myself that I can start doing the prep-work needed to build a successful business for 3 years during college, and then make a living of it. It's great because it puts all the pressure away, there's no need for anything, no victim-hood going on. If you really don't want to college, you need to understand that you're going to have to be studying and learning for at least 3 hours a day and maybe try to make money, or get your parents to support you, there's a lot - a LOT - of hard work that needs to be done before you actually have some value to offer, and start making money. This is why I like to stay in college, I can start doing the thing, slowly, and easily, while keeping the resistance at bay. Sum up : College is an opportunity to start building your business slowly, and easily. Unless you feel the need to spend a massive amount of time to learn even more than you currently do, stay there. Keep in mind that you still have plenty of time during this time, you're not working 40 hours a week, so you get plenty of time.

@Sarah_Flagg You and I are in the exact same situation. I found that self-help junkies see that this work is awesome and we think that everybody around us should be doing it as well. Our problem is that we can get seriously emotionally involved with it. The way I see it, people live a horrible life, and they get really miserable. It's only at this point that we feel the need for Self-Actualization. And so this work becomes a central part of our lives. People do not have sufficient motivation to do personal development if they haven't had a life miserable enough, that's the truth. As long as others are not actually preventing us from doing the work, that's fine. Maybe in 10 years, when we have mastered it completely, people will start to be drawn to the work, but until then, you just have to focus on what you're doing, not what others are doing. For me, an interesting experience that I had was the following : I wanted to eat healthy, even though I'm not the one who actually buys my food. Of course, my family rejected the change (due to homeostasis), but now I see that they're buying fewer grains and more vegetables, so it's a win for me. Of course they are not eating healthy, but I don't care, because I am. Here's what you might want to take away. Make sure you're not emotionally attached to whether or not others are doing Self-Help work. Have discernment.

Hey. Look, no offence to "Mr Green" over there, but I'm actually getting tired of hearing stories over stories, so, you're not gonna get one from me. Here's the harsh truth, YOU HAVE TO STAY IN YOUR CURRENT JOB !!!!! You only feel drained and exhausted because you eat shit, and you know it. You could do better than that, and you know it. Quitting your job, changing careers, all that bullshit, it's a distraction. Your Job does not determine whether or not you're tired. How you eat does. That was my first point. Second of all, you actually think that your job owes you something, like it has to give you value before you can put valuable work. Well, guess what, you have to provide value first, then you can have all those things that make up for a good job. Third of all, you're a dabbler, you can't stick to anything, you can't put in good habits, and you're a huge victim. It's time you wake up and start getting the right information, not stories. Okay now that was a little harsh, but here's something you might want to consider. You can actually turn your career into something you love, by simply putting in the most obvious habit. From now on, every Saturday, you will be inventing a new recipe, cooking it up, and serving it to people who will give you honest feedback. You're going to back this up with research, go look at cookbooks, cooking blogs, youtube channels, and any other information resource about cooking. This right here is called deliberate practice, you'll find that it's hard to do, but if you keep doing it, you will get better and better until you become world class after having spent 10'000 hours (7-10 years on average, I personally tell myself that it's going to take me 10-12 years, it helps pacing myself and keep resistance at bay). I hope that now you see what it means to have a great career, it's not that you have a pre-existing passion that needs to be discovered, but more like building skills so that you are good at what you do, only then will you love your job, but never before. You don't have to go to night school and pay your dues and start all over again, you can just start practising now, it doesn't matter what you're practising, it's still hard, and the reward is the same, unless the industry you're in is horrible, but that's not your case, you have the chance to be an artist, to have your style of cuisine, to make your contribution, to have other people notice you PS : those things I said in that first part, I only said them so that people take this seriously. You might want to read "So Good They Can't Ignore You" by Cal Newport. Short and Packed with wisdom about how to find work you love, really inspiring. And while you're at it, take Leo's book list and read all the books and success, creativity, and life purpose in there. Doing that can really help you change the way you view your work and your career.

Hi ! After days, weeks, months, and years of struggling and failing, I finally came up with a system that anybody can - and must - use in order to achieve long-term, transforming, powerful and inspiring visions - or goals, I prefer to call them vision. I was able to implement it in my own life, and it made it easy and effortless. I am so happy to bring it to you Introduction Before we get into anything, I think that it's important that you keep in mind these few points : I am only giving you the Big Picture here Don't settle for being a follower, be a Smart Follower ! Be Your Own Leader ! DO NOT JUST FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS !!! Make your own choices, and your own decisions ! Do NOT think negatively of yourself whenever you do something "bad" Focus on how much of an amazing person you are The 3 Steps Toward Accomplishment I found that there are always three distinct steps to the achievement of any goal, here they are : Planning Processing Updating I'm going to go into detail for each and every one of these three steps, so here we go : 1. Planning Planning is perhaps the most important step in the achievement of goals, without proper planning, you WILL NOT create success. What do I mean by planning ? Simple : I want you to choose what your next Project is going to be. The problem that a lot of people encounter is that they tend to dabble around, not making lasting change, they're stuck in homeostasis. The simple solution to that is to choose a project that is really significant to them, that they will be able to stick to it, and not get distracted by what others are doing. How to choose a Project ? Relax, Imagine, and Make A Choice ! When you are choosing a Project, it's important that you keep your impulses, fears, doubts, and other forms of Resistance at bay. You need to see things clearly in order to know what you want to create, you can look at your values, strengths, and passions and just reflect on those. You can also travel, meditate, connect with nature, have amazing sex, and just enjoy your life a little bit, it's important that you do that. At this point, you want to Imagine, come up with at least three massive goals (e.g. : create and develop your own business, create an amazing loving relationship, get enlightened), and create a vision for each of those, you can do this simply by taking a whole hour trying to imagine how your life would change if the goal was accomplished, this right here should be enough for you to make a choice between these goals. If it's not, here's a way, try to do some initial research, go look what the best learning resources for these goals are, and try to see if you prefer one of these, something else that you can do is simply ask yourself how you would change your habits in order to support the achievement of the goal. *At this point, I highly recommend that you come up with a way that you like to use in order to help ease the choice 2. Processing Processing is perhaps the easiest stage of achieving goals - and thank god for that, because it's also the longest. Basically, three main components of Processing, viz: Visioning, Learning, Taking Action. You want to spend time every single day reprogramming your subconscious mind with your vision (around 30 min, ideally), you also want to direct at least 90% of all the learning that you do to achieving the goal - you will understand in a minute why 90% and not 100. And you also want to take action, create a habit to support the goal (e.g. : If you want to create an amazing, you want to go out and meet girls/guys, and date around to know what kind of girls/guys you like). This step is easy because the stuff that you do is pretty intuitive, there might be some emotional labour involved but that tend to disappear pretty quickly, so have fun with this one. 3. Updating This is why we directed only 90% of our learning to our Project, because we want to use the last 10% to update old Projects. So let's say I've had Project in the past about achieving Amazing Health, and now I'm all about my Life Purpose, but a certain change of environment happened that now, it would be nice to get an update on health, I feel like re-taking an important learning resource about health, I want to take a new important learning resource about health, or something else like that. Well, there's no harm in doing that, on the contrary, it keeps me inspired, and that's great. The Fourth Step before the Three Steps All of this advice is great, but I came up with it after having done some initial work. And I'm sure that if you had done the same kind of work, you would have come up with your own system, so I highly encourage you to do the same. Leo's Book List has a lot of books that you can read in order to understand how success is created, and that's ultimately what you want, so go do that ! Or simply ask yourself what is most important that you keep in mind in order to create success in your life, this will be a good start. Conclusion Anyway, that's it ! I hope you enjoyed it, and I remind you, one more time, BE YOUR OWN LEADER, COME UP WITH YOUR MAP, MAKE YOUR OWN CHOICES ! If there's one thing you're taking out of this post it's this. Let me know what you think, I'll catch you guys later.

Well, I can't say yes, and I can't say no either. Just understand that most limiting beliefs come from interpretation of the environment that you grow up in. If you get emotional thinking about a certain theme from your childhood, like money, or sex, or people, or the world, or whatever else, then you probably have limiting beliefs there. It's simple, if you want to get more confident with people, you probably have some limiting beliefs with people, simply go and unwire those, and rewire new beliefs that you can use to your advantage, through affirmation. Also, this kind of exercise can be done much more effectively if you go see a therapist, or a coach, or an NLP practitioner, or a hypnotherapist. But those might be required only for extreme cases.

A belief cannot be busted by a one-time experience. The subconscious mind works with repetition. In fact, the earlier you acquired the belief, the harder it's going to be to bust it. However, this does not mean that you can't do some initial work. This is what I'm encouraging here. Do some introspection. And simply just use the basic processes mentioned to show to yourself that this belief is wrong and that you cannot keep it. Kind of like the "Radical Openmindedness" video.

Here's what I found after experimenting with reprogramming your subconscious mind : Have it personalised. This is key. If you're just following instructions, then you're not getting any confidence, are you ? And apart from that, having it personalised adds an extra value to the activity, you feel better, you get the emotion that is required. IT IS CRITICAL TO FEEL POSITIVE EMOTIONS WHEN REPROGRAMMING YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND ! Otherwise it just doesn't work. Bust a Limiting Belief, and replace it with a good one. When you're doing affirmations, you're basically imprinting a belief in yourself. But this can't work if your new powerful belief conflicts with an old limiting one. There's no real process busting a belief, but basically you want to question and undermine your belief until you really feel like you've busted it, try to dig into your past here, recall a situation, try to look at it from a different perspective, this really helps. Take Action. Remember that lame saying "fake it till you make it". Isn't that what you're doing with your affirmation ? This is also why you want to visualise yourself. But really in the end you just have to accept the fear as part of it, get out on the edge and do the work that you know you have to do ! Cordialement, Tancrède Pouyat. PS : That was french. I'm from Geneva. I always finish my emails with this. PS2 : Go read Psycho-Cybernetics. This is critical if you want to succeed in reprogramming your subconscious mind.

That quote is great, but not good enough. It's really great to bust through the fear of failure, but it still doesn't really detach yourself from the outcome, and that's just not good. So here is my final mantra : "There is no failure, there is no success, feedback doesn't matter, and I really only care about what I'm doing."

Presentation : Name : Tancrède Pouyat Age : 20 Gender : Male Location : Geneva, Switzerland Occupation : College Student Marital Status : Single Kids : No Hobbies : psychological cybernetics, being an artist, healthy eating, self-improvement, self-regulation (as in, not too much of bad stuff, and more good stuff instead), visioning for the future, realising my life purpose. So, it's June 2014, I'm sitting down in front of my new gaming computer, I've been skipping school for 8 months and been playing WoW for18 hours a day, I haven't had a shower in 10 days, I haven't been eating anything but pasta, pizza, fast food and other unhealthy stuff I gained 20 pounds in 6 months, I'm always tired, my bedroom is a mess, it smells horrible, and I drink 2 litres of wine every day. I decide to type in "How to Kiss a Girl" on Google, because I've never done that before. I get really in touch with this idea that I can actually develop myself to get better with girls. One thing leads to an other, I come across Leo's relationship videos, but I don't really take action on anything at all. Months go by, I get kicked out of school for not going, and I get thrown back into depression to a really deep level, almost killed myself. At this point, in January 2015, I start to take personal development seriously. Now, after a year, I have gotten Leo's Life Purpose course, and his book list, even though I'm only 20 I feel really passionate about my field of mastery, which is psychological cybernetics. I feel confident about the future, I know that I'm going to live an extraordinary life, even though I still haven't kissed anyone Personal Challenges I've overcome : Massive Depression (even though that actually wasn't hard at all) Addiction-Driven Lifestyle Bad Physical Shape (always wanted to gain weight, then simply got fat, now getting lean muscle) Victimhood (actually still a little bit of a victim, but much better now) Always felt like I couldn't make friends, now knowing that it's a lot - a LOT - easier than what I though it was. What I'm working on now : Deliberately practising psychological cybernetics Being an Artist, creating an audience to build a business around Working on my Life Purpose/Looking for it, even though I'm pretty certain of what it is Really starting to share my greatest gifts with the world
