Enhancing The Human Experience with Mark Phillips

Do you want to instill a can-do entrepreneurial mindset in your child?  Or maybe in yourself?  Well if so, Kid Capitalist: What Every Kid Should Know About Owning A Business will help you do that.  In this episode, I'm going to review this great book and share my top 5 takeaways with you.  Let's face it.  The world is always in a state of change.  Rather than relying on employers or the government for security, more and more evidence suggests that we must become self-reliant, and build our own security if we want to realize true and lasting prosperity.  That's why it's important to help young and old alike understand that they have it within themselves to strike out on their own and forge their own way.  To be their own boss if they want to be.  This book helps kids understand what being an entrepreneur is all about from someone who is one.

Show Notes

My top 5 takeaways from this book are:

The option exists for your child to become an entrepreneur, but it has to occur to them first.

It all starts with an idea to serve others and solve problems better than anyone else.

Human potential is virtually unlimited, and all of us are capable of being or doing anything we put our minds to.

Tobe demystifies entrepreneurialism, and takes you behind the scenes of business ownership.

You'll learn that good business is built on the principle of trading value for value.

*Bonus takeaway* Tobe recommends designing and building a business around your lifestyle.  One that actually supports the life you want to live.  A business that is in alignment with who you are, and what you want your life to look like.  He says that all too often, people chose their careers or businesses based on how much money they'll make.  This is the wrong approach.  Because you'll be unhappy in the long run due to your lack of passion for what you're doing.  You could even burn yourself out.  So know yourself first and foremost.  Then choose a business that supports the lifestyle you want to have.

One Sentence Summary:

Being an entrepreneur is an option that's available to your child, if they want to put the work in to have the freedom this type of lifestyle affords.

Quote of the Week:

The key to becoming a great entrepreneur is to recognize it for what it is and be willing to say, "I'm creative.  I'm a creative person, I think outside the box, and I can come up with different solutions to problems that most people wouldn't think about. ~ Tobe Brockner

And here's a bonus quote...

When I began looking for opportunities to serve - to do some good within our society and make an impact - then I was happier and the money naturally took care of itself. ~ Tobe Brockner

In this episode I want to share a story with you.  While I use a fictional character to illustrate the point of the story, it's ultimately a story about you.  And whether you realize it or not, you're writing a new chapter every day.  It's the story of choice.   Every day - every moment in fact - you have a choice.  You can choose to align yourself with divine mind, infinite creativity, and success, or with race mind, infinite competition, and struggle.

Aligning your thinking and consciousness with divine mind will help you tap into the infinite stream of ideas and opportunities that are always available to you.  Once you're tapped in, you can execute!

Show Notes

When you tune in to divine mind, you'll automatically notice an improvement in every area of your life.

It's simple but not easy.

The predominant collective state of consciousness is negative, pessimistic, and rooted in race mind thinking.

Practice every day by training yourself to align your thinking with divine mind.

One Sentence Summary:

Aligning your thinking with divine mind will help you to radically improve the results you realize in every area of your life, and draw the circumstances and experiences you desire to you you.

Quote of the Week:

Our normal waking consciousness, rational consciousness as we call it, is but one special type of consciousness, whilst all about it, parted from it by the filmiest of screens, there lie potential forms of consciousness entirely different. ~ William James

Welcome to Enhancing The Human Experience; the podcast designed to help you get the most out of life.  In this first episode I share a little about myself, and also talk about what you can expect from future episodes of the show.  Additionally, I share what I feel is the cause of great experiences in life and talk about the model for personal development as I see it.  You'll see why personal development will be an underlying theme of this show.

Thank you for checking out the show, I appreciate it!

Show Notes

I share a little about myself and my background.

I'm passionate about sharing practical techniques, knowledge, and wisdom to help you get the most out of life.

I also enjoy creating tools (books, systems, and plans, etc.) built around these ideas.

On future episodes of the show, expect to discover practical ways to enhance the human experience and get the most out of life.

Expect a big focus to be on the inner causes of the circumstances we encounter in the physical plane.  I'm a big fan of the famous statement "As within, so without".  So I'll be spending a lot of time talking about best practices for developing the consciousness of the circumstances and experiences you want to have in life.

I believe our lives are an out-picturing of the way we see ourselves, others, and the world at large.

When we change our self-concept, or self-image, changes everything.

Expect interviews with a wide variety of interesting and successful individuals.

Expect the show to evolve.  I'll always be asking the big questions like; "How can I serve you better?  How can I help you get what you want in all areas of your life faster and more effectively?

Expect a new episode every Monday.

The name of the show is loosely based on something a meditation teacher of mine once said.

One Sentence Summary:

To enhance your experience, begin by enhancing yourself; by developing your mind (thinking thoughts that support the outcomes you want), your body (by eating pure, wholesome, nutritious food and exercising regularly), and your soul (by taking action despite fear, doubt, uncertainty, or worry).

Quote of the Week:

The purpose of human life is the discovery of Truth, the unitive knowledge of the Godhead. The degree to which this unitive knowledge is achieved here on earth determines the degree to which it will be enjoyed in the posthumous state. Contemplation of truth Is the end, action the means. ~ Bhagavad-Gita, The Song of God, Translated by Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood

Resources Mentioned:

Harmonic Wealth (The Movie): Attract the Life You Want

The Silva Mind Control Method

The War of Art - Steven Pressfield's incredible book on pushing through the resistance within

Additional Resources:
