How do the rich, highly motivated and successful start their day? Tony Robbins starts his day with a routine that includes visualisation, a prayer of gratitude, and breathing exercises. Tim Ferris has a morning routine, and so do thousands of really successful people worldwide. Joe Dispenza has a 2 hour meditation routine. Wim Hof does breathing techniques and cold exposure as his morning routine. How about you? How do you begin you...
As a teenager I had a stutter, and the worst fear in my world was speaking in front of a group of people. I recall that at age 12 or 13 I was assigned to speak in front of a class in a debate. The fear was so intense and I thought that I would avoid doing this most uncomfortable thing (public speaking) at all cost. As it turned out I did not have to give that talk. I was in a car accident that incapacitated me for about a week. ...
Well it seems to me that when you change the way you use your body, life changes……for a time. Anything new becomes old over time. It really does not matter what it is. Any big change to your life, once repeated about 1000 times becomes normal. Wow who would have thought that jumping with excitement would become like breathing or riding a bike. That it would become normal to be excited ev...
Today I thought about attending Tony Robbins seminar next month (Date with Destiny May 21-26, Gold Coast 2017) and considered that I was given the floor for a period of time. I imagined myself in front of a thousand people teaching and instructing with a confidence and energy that I have never before exhibited. It was an exhilarating thought and one that got me excited. I began to do my power move and get the adrenaline pumping thr...
Many years ago I was at work and a senior employee said to me, “you need to switch on”. I was new to the job and did not know what to do, yet there must have been an overriding attitude of disinterest. I was there physically, yet in reality I was a thousand miles away. He did not just say this to me once. I acknowledge that as an absent minded child I was often not present when being spoken to. I was often distant and alo...
Advertisers have spent years understanding the relationship between sex and the functions of the brain. Sex is tied to our primal instincts and is a function of the lizard brain. Many are not aware at we have three brains, not just one. There is the lizard brain or the paleo cortex, the mammalian brain, and the new brain or Neo cortex. Sexually stimulating pictures, stories and sounds affect the mind in a huge way. The lizard brain i...
There once was a man who walked into a doctors surgery. The doctor asked him, “what seems to be the problem?” The man replied, “no one listens to me, it’s like I’ not even here”. The doctor shouted toward the hallway, “NEXT”. Some feel like they just don’t matter, yet others seem to live in the spotlight. It is as if they are on a joyous adventure in which they, the main character...
One of the most difficult and humbling things we face as human beings is to gain victory in the arena of career, whilst failing in the area of relationships. In other words to win and succeed in one area of life at the expense of another area of life. I have succeeded in my own mind, and yet have failed in the mind of someone whom I love. Someone who’s opinion I value immensely. There have been times when I feel like I have...
A few months ago my daughter went for her driving test, and failed. As you can imagine she was very upset. She has a wonderful personality and when she is angry, she expresses it openly. She has done all her life. She began telling me about why she did not get the licence. She explained that she had failed to do a head check when changing lanes, and that she changed lanes in the middle of a 2 land round-a-bout. The instructor called ...
I was doing a priming session with a friend today and we were discussing focus and energy. He has just commenced a new relationship and is very excited about it, and focused on it. This is a great thing, and he is really enjoying the friendship and love that he is creating. He is focused so much on this relationship that it has taken up all of his time. He is not currently employed or studying and is solely enjoying the relationship....
