Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to episode 35 of the White Pony Network Podcast. Soon we’ll be doing a rebrand of the podcast from White Pony to the MindAim Academy Podcast, and this episode is definitely on topic of the slightly new direction!
I first had the pleasure of meeting Ben around 11 years ago when I booked him for a few gigs as a DJ. In 2010 we both coincidentally completed the Landmark Forum together, and this event really set us and especially Ben on the path. The next time I saw Ben he was in a shirt in front of a white board on a facebook video talking about business marketing. From there Ben went hard at both personal development and business and was having quite a lot of success with business. He would get up at 4:30am and grind out long days and was extremely focussed.
He reached the stage where he was plateauing, was miserable and his performance really started to dip.
This is the story of Ben’s incredible transformation to a man who has discovered what it truly means to be happy and where success sits amongst that. This is truly inspiring and I see this as part of the new wave and very much leading the new wave of realisation as society slowly wakes up to the truth – for lack of a better term.
One night a message came to Ben to reach out to me to do the Podcast, and this is how this came about. It was meant to be that we’re able to share this conversation with you. So listen up, take notes, and get ready to learn from Ben Pottinger’s remarkable and revealing story.
Do you feel like no matter what you do, you’re never getting to where you want to go? You could be stuck by limiting beliefs, self-sabotage and self-worth. Our experts will coach you to win your inner game and achieve your outer purpose through the MindAim Academy..for free! CLICK HERE for more information!My Biggest Take-Aways- ‘Whatever you put your mind to and whatever you put effort into, and if you love it and if you’re interested in it, you can achieve anything’
- ‘We are meaning making machines and we have the ability to determine what things mean’
- A twin flame is someone who is a beautiful and harsh reflection of who you are
- Ben learned that he didn’t honour his feelings. If you act as if your feelings don’t matter, your feelings are a part of you so that’s like saying that you don’t matter
- Ayahuasca is called the Grandmother – When you have this, you don’t experience anything new. You get a highlight into what is your life and what needs to come up
- It wasn’t until Ben showed 100% love to both parents that he felt 100% love for himself
- I was working hard to escape myself to have success in business so I would feel good. That’s why I was doing it (Wes – We’re all guilty of chasing the illusion of the dangling carrot!)
- If you train for more than 40 minutes at the gym it can actually be used as a sedation tool to escape reality
- Sensual is using all of your senses
- We’re born perfect, whole and complete; yet as we’ve gone through life we’ve added layers and stories and perceptions and beliefs that forget that
- We have that inner kid in us that wants to come out, however all this stuff keeps getting piled on us and we forget the core nature of who we truly are
- There’s only one relationship and that’s the relationship with yourself, everything else is a reflection of that
- You get to experience life more and fully when you shred those layers of ‘I’ll feel good when I do this’ etc
- I had this realisation, l was hysterically laughing that life is like a cosmic joke because we make it hard and we make it complicated and we think it’s hard yet we’re the ones making it hard. We’re the ones that put our own limits and frustrations on us
- The best way that you can help others is by you being you and you being the light and honouring people where they are and not wanting to change them
- Everything that was built, was built by one person with one voice in one moment and made one decision. I can do that, I’ve got one voice and in one moment I can make one decision
- If it’s external it can be taken away. If our identity is attached to it and it’s then taken away, then we’re in trouble
- There’s a difference between education and experience, you can read something or you can experience it
- Energy is essentially an encapsulation of your thoughts, feelings and emotions
- It’s important to reach out to the right people to get the help we need – as we don’t know what we don’t know
- How to break away from your familiar? 1. Become aware of what is pulling you back, both your body and what you’re feeling inside 2. Get someone outside of you to help you (You can’t solve a problem from the same level that created it – Einstein)
- ‘One’s joy is in direct proportion to their willingness to experience the unknown.’ So the more you lean into the unknown, the more joy you experience
- We don’t need a conscious reason to reply to ‘How are you?’ with ‘I’m amazing’
- The Great 8 Morning Routine: Green drink (Yor Health); Sweat; Meditating; Journaling; Sending a message to someone who I love, honour, appreciate and respect; Study something
- You be the change that you wish to see in the world – Ghandi
- My businesses didn’t grow as fast as I wanted them to because I wasn’t ready
- Meditation is like going to the gym – you don’t get big in a day, you must keep at it. It’s creating a gap between your conscious and sub-conscious
- Respond not React
- What is the answer in one sentence: ‘Enjoy life’
- ‘Don’t waste time’ Enjoy this moment, the moments coming up and the people that you are with. What’s the alternative. To not? So enjoy life
- I think everyone has a purpose. Mine is to enjoy the now as much as possible. So by living that way it will help the people who I surround
- Be weary of in the future vs now. It’s good to have something in the future, but for me I’m about being in the now. I am exited for the future however I’m not escaping the now to get to the future. A month is always a month away no matter what time zone you’re in.
- Research Tyson Fury’s story: He set his whole life to win the world title, won it and then thought ‘Is this it?’. He fell out of shape so quickly and went off the rails. He wasn’t physically or mentally fit to fight so he had his belt stripped from him. He made a year long comeback, won a huge fight and donated it all to mental health awareness
- Progress over perfection
- You’re perfect, whole and complete now. There’s nothing outside that you can get that’s going to make you feel better than when you feel better from the inside
- You don’t have to achieve anything, however you would do it because you can
- We put on these layers which mask our true self. We put on these layers in an attempt to escape from the now
- After viewing the photo of Ben: ‘It’s almost like you’ve learned something that was always there’

1:45:00 What are some inner areas that tend to hold you back or have held you back and how are you able or have been able to overcome them?
It was that parasite inside me that was attacking me that wanted to sedate and escape and not come to my full wholeness and just to fully love myself. So it was recognizing that and eliminating that through Reiki, through breath work techniques, emotional releasing, plant medicines, what Marci teaches. So definitely releasing stick, low, dark gloomy energy inside of me or emotions that were blocking me to feeling my higher self. It’s like a blockage in the sink that you can’t really see, and you need to get the plumber in. Once you clear them you feel liberated and so much lighter.
1:47:50 What is your favourite quote?
To change the world, you first must change yourself
Be the change that you want to see in the world1:49:00 What are the best books you’ve read and/or resources that you’ve got the most from?
Ayahuasca, Meditation (it’s like going to the gym – you don’t get big in a day, you must keep at it)
1:51:40 Best Movies, TV Shows & Documentaries?
The old favourite was The Wolf of Wall Street, but not anymore.
Awake (about Yogananda’s journey)Heal documentary1:53:30 What are your predictions for your industry in the next 5 to 10 years?
Attention is attention and it’ll probably be a new platform
I think there will be more awareness brought to the power of plant medicines and psychedelics used for conscious awakening and healing work in such a profound and deeper way. The concern is that it’s not in the government’s best interests.
1:56:45 What goals have you set yourself over the next 12 months? Are there any that you’re willing share with us that we could help by keeping you accountable?
My main goal is just to continue to just see what’s possible. My question that I got was ‘How do you get the most out of life?’ and I got the answer through psychedelics. So continue to lean into that and to live that.
1:59:10 Who are you looking to connect with?
I feel called whenever the time comes to help entrepreneurs specifically to get out of their head and process the stress and overwhelm etc.
2:00:10 Do you think that we don’t have a particular purpose in the external world?
I think everyone has a purpose. Mine is to enjoy the now as much as possible. So by living that way it will help the people who Ben surrounds.
Be weary of in the future vs now. It’s good to have something in the future, but for me I’m about being in the now. I am exited for the future however I’m not escaping the now to get to the future. A month is always a month away no matter what time zone you’re in.

...more October 14, 2019035: The World’s #1 Men’s Sexual Leadership Mentor, Creating an International Business From Scratch, The Tinder Effect on Society & Changing the world for the better – for both men and women with Andrew Mioch iTunes | Stitcher
Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to episode 35 of the White Pony Network Podcast. This episode was recorded a little while ago and is really quite fascinating, so I’m pleased to be able to share it with you now!
I first had the pleasure of meeting Andrew Mioch about 3 years ago when we was a women’s dating coach. We reconnected in 2018 at Dr John Demartini’s Breakthrough Experience.
Andrew has had a lot of experience in his life and was searching for how he can best serve the world. Then he landed on sex, specifically for men, and in a way where everyone wins. It’s fair to say that this episode may not be for the kids, although I wouldn’t say that it’s not too intense. It’s very informative and Andrew is out there changing lives in a blue ocean niche, there are hardly any competitors and there is a big need for his services.
Andrew has created Sexual Quantum Leap or SQL. He realised that there was a need not being filled. Here’s how Andrew puts it: ‘I cater for the regular dude who’s into personal development, who’s into growth and he just wants to be better in the bedroom and understand why he’s anxious, and I’m giving a voice for men in that respect. Men and women are both going to benefit from this because the more open men are and the more they communicate, the better the relationship. Everyone wins.’
Andrew’s Business partner is an ex world renowned world class pick up artist by the name of Pierre De Sousa, who changed and teamed up with Andrew and now these two men help other men have deep connections with their partners in their relationships and really evolve on their individual journeys.
Sexual Quantum Leap have some awesome free events happening around Australia later this year – Sydney on the 9th, Brisbane on the 10thand Melbourne on the 12thof December. There’s more info in the Sexual Quantum Leap Facebook group and at SexualQuantumLeap.com. In such a short time, they’re now running sold out retreats and events all over the world and the boys have countless testimonials and are growing and growing, so it’s evident that what they teach is pure gold.
Andrew is an awesome guy. He was worked out his purpose, he knows exactly what he needs to do, and he is out there changing lives. Please enjoy this conversation with Andrew Mioch.

My Biggest Take-Aways- ‘What you do consistently just becomes normal doesn’t it?’ (This is something I’ve been thinking about lately – We can build self-confidence through doing what we say we’ll do, and if we do it enough, it becomes our familiar – part of our evolved identity)
- On self-doubt: Speak from your heart because you can never lie. How can it not be good enough if I’m speaking from my heart and generally trying to change people?
- ‘When you serve the world, the world wants to serve you’
- Presence not performance
- You’re not messed up. You can learn to unlearn your bad habits
- 3 things to focus on: Understanding you, understanding her and understanding you both together
- The way you pleasure yourself is the way you do the dance
- It’s crucial to have open and honest communication in a relationship
- I write 10 things that I’m grateful for every day and then I recite ‘I’m grateful every day in every way for everything I have and everything that’s coming’
- The more that you step into your power, the more the temptations that come – temptations that the universe knows are tempting to you – Once we really start progressing on the path, the opportunities open up, including distractions.
- Worst case scenario in Australia for most people is you’re going to end up on your parents or friend’s couch and Centrelink will pay you until you’re back on your feet. We have an exceptional safety net here!
- When I changed my relationship with money, everything changed as well
- ‘Don’t wait for the storm to pass, learn to dance in the rain’ Andrew uses this to change his state and celebrate in the face of adversity
- I don’t say ‘I can’t afford it’, I say ‘How can I afford it?’ and ‘I’ll do whatever it takes’
- Look for an even exhancge when reaching our to catch up with people who inspire you. What can you bring to the table?
- ‘I know my strengths. I delegate everything else. I’m really good at two things in life: Public speaking and being good on the bedroom. Everything else I delegate.’
- When dealing with online criticism: ‘You know who that person is who you’re targeting. Everything else is irrelevant’

...more October 09, 2019034: The Entrepreneur’s Journey: From Six-Figure Debt & Sleeping on the Warehouse Floor to Building a Wildly Successful Business! Plus Many Life Lessons, Reflections & Original Quotes Along The Way with James Hepburn iTunes | Stitcher
Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to episode 34 of the White Pony Network Podcast. A few months back I had the pleasure of catching up Mr James Hepburn for this wonderful conversation. I first met James whilst he and past podcast guests Josh Giuliani & Dim Nikolakakis all shared a co-working space together.
James is fascinating as he has had the real entrepreneur’s journey of jumping into business doing it super tough whilst learning his way out of it and growing to be the successful copywriter and business owner that he is today. His outlook on life is just awesome and he is a true online marketing leader.
My biggest take-aways section in the show notes is absolutely massive, as James kept dropping incredible nuggets of wisdom.
I wanted to pull out at least ten, but here are just three of my favourites:
‘I don’t believe in regret at all. I think regret is delusion. If you regret it, you’re not seeing the benefit in it. You thought that it was the best decision at the time or you didn’t know something that you know now’
‘Look at it more from a purpose perspective: Alright what need am I trying to meet by doing that, that’s not getting met atm? How can I get it met through doing what I want to do, because you just don’t need to work for someone else, you know?’
‘When there’s no cause greater than you that’s driving you, you’ll never be happy’
This conversation was absolutely amazing and I’m very confident that you’ll feel the same. So please enjoy this episode with James Hepburn.

My Biggest Take-Aways- ‘I’m just hoping the suggestion of the promise land came from an honest man’
- There are 2 things that you don’t want to happen in your life:
1. You never want to not work hard enough that you don’t achieve your goals and you’ve got to live with the disappointment of it2. To work your arse off, get exactly what you wanted and realise when you get there that it’s just not what you’d hoped that it would be- When James was first getting started in business, he was in the mindset of ‘I can make this shit work, I can do anything’
- The number 1 thing that you need to make it in business is a healthy dose of delusion
- ‘Business early on was hell, a first world problem obviously’
- James hit a point where a few things were coming to a head and he got so stressed out (It reiterates the importance of training our mind)
- ‘I learnt how to get into it, I’ll learn how to get out of it’
- ‘It’s funny now because I teach story telling but at the time I was just doing what intuitively felt right’
- ‘I never viewed myself as a good writer but I’ve always been a gifted communicator’
- ‘You’ll be dead soon’
- ‘I meet people now in the corporate marketing world that tell me about marketing strategy and without being a snob I’m like ‘Man I get what you’re saying, there may be some validity to your point, but when you’re like 200k in debt sleeping on the floor of a fucking warehouse and you’ve got to put your money where your mouth is and your marketing works, then I’ll listen to your opinion. Maybe that’s arrogant but going through that journey I was in the most pain that I’ve ever been in’
- ‘I don’t believe in regret at all. I think regret is delusion. If you regret it, you’re not seeing the benefit in it. You thought that it was the best decision at the time or you didn’t know something that you know now’
- ‘The journey happens how it happens and you’re just kind of like a prisoner to the journey. That’s the wrong way of putting it, you always have free will but you know what I’m saying.’ – We go to what’s familiar, so how much of it is a choice if we’re living through our automatic cycles, our subconscious?
- ‘I think every time you think you know who you are, you’ve got work to do’
- Tony Robbins’ 6 Core Human Needs: Certainty, Variety, Significance, Love & Connection, Growth, Contribution.
- ‘People think they’re happy when they travel. No you’re not, you’re just overly stimulated because you’re in this new environment and your need for variety is getting totally stoked. When you get back home, whether now, next year or in ten years, you’re still going to get bored at some certain point if you don’t resolve that’
- ‘Look at it more from a purpose perspective: Alright what need am I trying to meet by doing that, that’s not getting met atm, how can I get it met through doing what I want to do, because you just don’t need to work for someone else, you know?’
- ‘Go and listen to people who are talking to your audience so you can work out how they’re thinking and what exactly they want eg If you’re in the market meeting women, listen to someone coaching women wanting to date men.’
- ‘Get clear on your market, your offer and your strategy’
- ‘I think we live in a world where the truth is refreshing’
- ‘I think a lot of people that hate on veganism are doing it from a place of defending their own identity or their own way of being’
- ‘There’s a fine line between persistence and delusion’
- ‘When there’s no cause greater than you that’s driving you, you’ll never be happy’
- ‘You’re 27, you’ve got your own apartment, you’re making x amount of money, you’re travelling to all these places all the time, you’ve got all these clients, you’ve got friends all over the world, dude everyone would want you’re life’. ‘Yeah and that’s the problem. Because if it looks like that on paper and it feels how it feels internally, there’s a big f***ing problem’
- ‘The more money you make the more problems you have, because I didn’t have systems’
- ‘Being like f*ck I’m not worried about money, I don’t think comes from having money, I think that comes from someone who has internal peace. There is no certainty in money’
- ‘If you live in Melbourne and earn 50k, you’re in the top 1% of the world. You’ve already made it’
- ‘A ‘No’ is just ‘Not now’’
- ‘I want to be the person that always went for it. You’re going to be dead soon. However you’ve got to do it, just find a way to do it because you’re going to f***ing die’
- ‘If I view myself as already dead and that I am just living this shit out, then there’s nothing to lose’
- ‘Neediness comes from a lack of willingness to be vulnerable’
- ‘If you’re not sure on your purpose, no woman’s going to give you purpose.’ You’re still going to be confused and uncertain, and that’s probably going to f*** your relationship up’
- ‘Documentaries can sometimes do more harm than good. You go away thinking that you know all about something but you don’t, you only know about that perspective of it’
- ‘I think the more shit you can watch that gets you away from traditional media or what your parents have told you about the world, and makes you see shit that goes down, the better’
- Will it get to the point where bigger countries couldn’t invade inferior countries with no technology because they will have atom bombs of their own? ‘They already do right? So, who knows man, not my problems to solve, I’m just trying to write ads’
- ‘I want to make x amount per month.’ ‘Do you actually? Or is that just what would piss off people that you know? Or is that what would make people that you know jealous? Or is that what would make you feel like you’re enough? If they’re the reasons that you’re doing it, fine. I don’t think that it’s a long-term strategy but I think it’s a strategy.‘
- ‘The number 1 thing that I think holds people back is what their parents think of them, for sure’
- ‘It’s f***ing crazy to think that like 40 years ago you would finish school and you just couldn’t have done the shit that we’re doing now. You just couldn’t have’
- ‘Not all criticism is hate. Listen to the overall message. If you’re putting out content and no one is engaging with it, that’s sending a message to you. Either you’ve got no traffic and you’re doing shit wrong or no one gives a f*** what you’re talking about. You might need to pivot’
- ‘I think the more shit you can watch that gets you away from traditional media or what your parents have told you about the world, and makes you see shit that goes down, the better’

1:43:30 What are some inner areas that tend to hold you back or have held you back and how are you able or have been able to overcome them?
I think now it’s like a lack of patience and lack of persistence to some extent. I did a fear challenge where every day I did something that scared me. That shit’s invaluable.That time James put everything on the line to approach a girl who was a client who had just left their meeting a minute earlier. ‘I accessed this part of myself that was like ‘This is f***ing happening. Whether I get rejected or not is irrelevant. I can live with that. I can’t live with not doing it. I was like Liam Neeson in taken man. I’m going to find her and I’m going to ask her out. Whatever happens, happens, that not up to me to decide. ‘Now for example when I speak on stage – It’s still easier than that’

AviciiIcarusMatthew Hussey contentJoe Rogan’s PodcastWinter on Fire1:58:40 What are your predictions for your industry in the next 5 to 10 years?
Nothing ever changes in my opinion. Things change way less than people thinking they change. You’re still selling shit to humans. Our brains haven’t changed in 10,000 years. The platform will change, content will become bigger. People buy for the same reasons. It’s just a matter of adapting to the platform.2:00:55 Did you achieve your goals that you set yourself over the last 12 months?
I don’t really set goals, I just have areas that I focus on.Put some weight on, live life, make moneyI think you should set intentions2:02:20 What goals have you set yourself over the next 12 months? Are there any that you’re willing share with us that we could help by keeping you accountable?
What I’m more focused on now is building a business. Outsourcing and building a team and a business.2:20:00 Who are you looking to connect with?
I’m writing copy, that’s my main skillset, so I’m looking to connect with people that run businesses that want copy written – email sequences, VSL’s, sales letters, landing pages, have a decent sixed list that want to do it on a monthly basis sort of thing. Big ecommerce companies, information marketin, digital products, like coaches etc is my focus now.2:20:35 Where can our listeners reach you?

After an invitation from a friend to attend a personal development event, she was on the path.

Last year Ranetha set the goal of helping 1 million people combat body image and specifically have more self-love and self-acceptance in their lives – and she is well on the way to achieving that.
Ranetha is already transforming lives through her self-love workshops and it’s exciting to see the path that she’s on. She shares plenty of wisdom here for us, so please enjoy this conversation with Ranetha Perera

My Biggest Take-Aways- ‘Yes I love myself in all different ways even though some days are still a struggle. When I can say that, everything is ok, everything else works.’
- What happened vs the story we tell ourselves
- Energy work is something that has become so powerful
- Daily gratitude practice to change mindset – Every morning I share with someone what I am grateful for right now, what I am grateful for at the end of the day and what I am grateful for in the future and the last two I say in past tense like it’s already happened and occurred but really feel into the different senses. The motivation behind that is when you’re grateful for anything, you create an energy that’s kind of an excitement and that energy really helps manifest and there’s been so many things in my life that I created and set into existence and I just know that it’s come form that continuous gratitude and sense of being.
- Emotional release techniques are important – Yelling in the car, having a tantrum etc
- The amount of tensions that people store in their bodies that then becomes disease – it could just be eradicated
- Every man is so connected to themselves, they just need a way to access it
- Make time for yourself. Get a coach to help you work out what’s going on inside. Have some activities that you enjoy that you do to balance you out and bring you back to equilibrium.
- Having boundaries to look after yourself – including the ability to say no to others powerfully when it doesn’t suit, is a wonderful thing
- People have 1000 versions of yourself – every single person you know has a different view of view depending on when and how they know you
- Your life doesn’t actually make you a liar. If you say something and you believe it, it’ll happen. The universe doesn’t create you as a liar.

...more August 13, 2019032: Science, Coding, Working For Tesla, Business, Happiness, Habits, Money, Consciousness & More, All In One Extraordinary Conversation With Michael Zupecki iTunes | Stitcher
Hello ladies & gentlemen and welcome to episode 31 of the WPNP! Plenty happening, plenty of learning, evolving, growing and most importantly perspective. This has been a fun journey in the first half of 2019! Plenty of work on the new venture MindAim, complemented by this podcast and the wonderful, intelligent and brilliant guests that I am fortunate to interview.
And today my friends is no exception. Even though we grew up in the same area, we didn’t really cross paths until recently. About 6 months ago and I had the pleasure of being introduced to Michael Zupecki by our good mutual friend Sid Umesh (WPNP episode number #). Michael and I had an extraordinary hour long conversation. He just has one of those minds. He brings a big game from the science side of things. His perspective, knowledge and guesses of the unknown are both brilliant and fascinating. When we got together for this a few months ago now, we just let it run and 3 hours later we decided to wrap it up.
We covered so much. It was awesome. If you’re thinking to yourself ‘Wes there is no chance I’m sticking round for 3 hours’ I would say reconsider that, followed by ‘Okay I’ll just send you to my two favourite bits’. The first is around the 37 minute mark where Michael delivers the most incredible explanation of how our habits work and why we get stuck with them that I’ve ever heard. The second bit to listen to is the final 5 minutes where Michael shares with us his explanation of what he thinks consciousness is.
Michael is an entrepreneur and has a heap of excellent advice for those looking to or already starting out in business. He has also been an employee for many organisations, including Tesla, and has a bunch of gold advice there too. Michael just knows a lot about a lot.
All I can say is: Ladies and gentlemen, sit back and enjoy this conversation with Michael Zupecki.

My Biggest Take-Aways- Pronounce your T’s! Covering this has really helped me since pronounce my words better
- ‘Long enough to have a kid is where I draw the line if I hate doing something, because otherwise it might impregnate me with too much negativity for the rest of my life’
- I keep hearing more and more of just how much of a powerful skill programming is
- Do what you’re afraid of because that’s where the growth is going to be
- ‘I’m certain that the uncertainty is certainly serving me’
- Pick the right narrative for your situation or circumstance. It’s malleable. It’s so important to see the balance in everything.
- A healthy mind has a reading list larger than it will survive to get through. Your eyes should be bigger than your stomach when it comes to learning.
- A habit is a strategy. Our brain takes a quarter of our energy. To conserve energy our brain runs learning habits on autopilot. Listen to the explanation, it’s incredible (35:35)
- It may not make sense now, but it will (Steve Jobs once took Calligraphy class)
- ‘You are the same as everything all at once’
- ‘We are not on this earth, we are of this earth’
- ‘Every atom in your body has changed every 7 years on average, therefore any memory you have from ore than 7 years ago, you weren’t there for’
- ‘Well if I am, then so is everything else. So everything is the same thing’
- The beauty of nature is not in the atoms themselves, it’s in the way that they’re put together’ – Carl Sagan
- ‘When you were born, you woke up having never gone to sleep. So what would it be like to go to sleep and never wake up’ – Alan Watts on death
- ‘CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) is thinking about things and reframing them. This can shut down an overactive amygdala’.
- ‘The very essence of how you know you’re alive, when you can actually step back and alive is being able to step back and look at your own thoughts. That’s when you’re being aware. If by contrast you just responded to them, are you alive? Are you aware?’
- ‘It’s a fine line between emotions being fun and you being a total slave to them’
- ‘That’s just the way I am’ If you think that, then you’re right, however you can change that at ANY time.
- ‘To use consumerism to try to make yourself happy is like having a shot of alcohol. It’s really intense, quick, you don’t taste it fully and it may even burn a bit afterwards. At the time it seems like a good idea, but if you do too much of it you’re left feeling empty and sick. However the experience drinking wine and learning about wine, is a journey that will never complete. That’s what we should be focussing on, things that have us growing indefinitely’
- ‘The one person that you’re going to spend your life with is you, so if you’re not happy with yourself, there’s a problem’
- ‘When you say you’ve got to find yourself, conceptually you start treating yourself as a single object, and you start to objectify what you should be and then you create this gap between what you think you should be and what you’re not and that creates anxiety, and then you go looking for it in the physical world. The people that come back from those experiences always talk about the internal realisation’
- ‘Social media apps have all become a single column slot machine. What’s on the screen is not as interesting as what might just be under it. You’re scrolling for things that you can’t even see yet’
- ‘Boredom is a precursor to creativity. If you don’t allow yourself to get bored, what ideas don’t exist in this world because of that?’
- ‘The brain is a universe rendering machine. It sucks in stuff and it projects out a reality. The more you know, the richer and more colourful that reality and you won’t know until you arrive’
- ‘We talk to ourselves in words. If you only knew 10 words, your thoughts are limited in what you can think to yourself. The words you know, the more tools you have to solve problems’
- ‘School doesn’t take on the position of salesman of knowledge, they take on the position of repository of knowledge. The best teachers are not only repository of knowledge, but they’re so passionate about it that they sell you on how amazing it is to know this stuff. They have taught the ability to self-teach for life’
- ‘The limits of my words are the limits of my world’
- ’People are how we treat them’ Limiting beliefs are learned through their environment.
- ‘If you only ever measure yourself with a short ruler, you’ll never measure up’
- ‘The Wright Brothers never read the published papers on flight being impossible’
- ‘For everything that happens, get something out of it. You have to. Or what else? There’s just so much crap otherwise’
- ‘Once you get core competency, do everything you can to lock yourself into a situation that demands it of you and you’ll get better at it much faster.
- ‘If you want a job as a programmer for example, build core competency then find a job’
- ‘Say yes’
- ‘Don’t rely on willpower, lock yourself in’
- ‘If you’re in an environment where the traits you have cause problems, them they’re problems; but if you find a way to put yourself into a job or profession where those things are what’s needed, all of a sudden you’re being rewarded for it’
- ‘If you call someone a genius, you are saying that you could never do that. You are divorcing yourself of being similar to them.’
- ‘If you spend your whole life looking up, you’ll get a sore neck. It’s not worth it’
- Best lesson from How To Win Friends And Influence People: ‘Using someone’s name helps build rapport. A person’s name is the most important sound in their life’
- ‘Something weird happens when you start tracking your money and you just have more left over’
- ‘Making your start-up look bigger than it is with ‘fake’ employees and email addresses works. (Tim Ferriss wrote about doing this in the Four Hour Work Week too!)
- ‘Three months is the threshold to develop a new habit’

- Deciding to go back to uni later in life (24), not because it’s not something intrinsically that everyone has to do, but there was information that I wanted to learn that I couldn’t get on my own.
- Reading The Singularity Is Near by Ray Kurzweil
- Choosing to write computer code (because I was afraid of it). This has allowed Michael to become a freelancer
- Deciding to start a business. Not just to make money or be free, it was also to deal with conflict. I was conflict averse, and I new that if I started a business, I’d end up in a lot of difficult situations.
- Getting arrested. I learned that I have a tendency to get bored if I am not stimulated and so I need to point that in productive directions.
2:13:05 What are some inner areas that hold you back or have held you back and how have you been able to overcome them?
Constant internal criticism

2:31:50 What are your predictions for your industry in the next 5 to 10 years?
Difficult to tell. In the web programming space, it’s a bit of a mess. Everyone’s adding new stuff all the time and it’s overwhelming. Everyone wants you to use their thing and there’s a million things to do one job.
The internet of things to make things smart objects.
Every year we add more data that we had in total up to the renaissance
2:34:40 Did you achieve your goals that you set yourself over the last 12 months?
Yes and more than I thought which was a first
2:39:00 What goals have you set yourself over the next 12 months? Are there any that you’re willing share with us that we could help by keeping you accountable?
Stay consistent and don’t deviate. Keep learning and double my salary.
Grow the side business consistently

Have a second side business – building and finishing an application
2:41:35 Who are you looking to connect with?
Anyone that wants to build things that have real value
Anyone in the medical software industry
Anyone with a good chunk of capital and the balls to do something fun

Bottom line – I don’t know
It seems to be an emergent property of the brain

...more August 05, 2019031: How To Get EXACTLY What You Want In Life, Raising Your Financial Thermostat, Building Habits That Serve You & How To Really Manifest with Zac Dixon iTunes | Stitcher
I recently had the pleasure of being introduced to Zac Dixon. He was recommended to me by 4 different people who are all coached by him, most have been on this podcast. And all 4 are doing really well in life, so I was very excited to have this conversation with him.
Zac Dixon is a Peak Performance and money Coach. He is the founder of the Millionaire Mindset Academy. He coaches people one on one, runs retreats and has an army of raving fans.
If someone needs help with mindset, sales, money and/or marketing, then Zac’s the man for the job.
We covered Zac’s teen years, life after school and how he got onto the path of coaching. Then we explored how we can manifest anything into our life and the extraordinary example of how he manifested his partner.
Zac spoke about how our subconscious is built from the ages of 0-7 and what that means for how we live our life. So much fascinating and eye opening stuff.
There were so many incredible quotes too, such as:
‘Your labels are on with velcro, not superglue, so whoever you think you are now, that’s not you. You’re everything and you’re nothing and you can be anything. You choose.’
You’ll be able to tell early on just why I’m so thrilled to have Zac as a special guest presenter at our next MindAim Conference at the end of August.
Without further ado, please enjoy this conversation with Zac Dixon

My Biggest Take-Aways- Ask yourself ‘What do you really want?’ ‘What’s going to make you fulfilled and happy?’ ‘If I could do this every day of my life, what would make me happy?’
- Seeing Tony Robbins on stage, Zac realised that was what he wanted to do. He researched what Tony did to get there, and went to work.
- Zac did 1000 hours of coaching for free before he started asking for money, due to his personal money story
- Zac once went for a job and was so sure that he was going to get it, that he wasn’t surprised when he did. Setting that intention and manifesting.
- Work out what you need to go to the next level. Zac to needed to build his relationship money, and to learn how to close.
- Feel grateful for the bills that we pay, for the services that they’re providing us with
- We all have a financial thermostat
- Always have cash in you wallet (don’t spend it, just have it in there) because being around it changes your relationship with money
- If you don’t give money attention, it’s going to find someone else to bed with
- Our limiting beliefs around money came from when we were 0-7 years old around our mother and our father
- Every belief you have right now isn’t yours, it’s been given to you and you can always change it
- Everyone craved love growing up. Who’s love did you crave growing up, mother or father? Who did you think you had to be to get that love?
- Everyone goes around living as the star in his or her own movie
- The biggest insecurity you have right now, no one actually notices and no one actually cares
- What creates a Diamond? Pressure!
- If you want to be good at sales, practice being a little more outrageous
- Left side of the brain is the analytical side. The right side is imagination, it’s the creative faculty
- Whatever main state you’re in is going to control your life
- Whatever we say after ‘I AM’ becomes our identity. ‘I am a salesman’ compared to ‘I am a closer’
- There are 3 levels of awareness: Intellectual level of understanding, Emotional level of understanding, Changing your identity
- ‘Your labels are on with velcro, not superglue, so whoever you think you are now, that’s not you. You’re everything and you’re nothing and you can be anything. You choose.’
- It’s easier for someone who struggles with money to feel in scarcity than abundance, because our cells, when triggered have been trained that way
- Do a 30 day challenge of one habit every day and it will transform your life
- ‘What changes your identity is being aware that you can take off any identity at any time but then also having a routine of an embodied process that you can go into a new identity. That’s the key to it. That can change your life more than anything.’
- The metaphysical is faster than the speed of light.
- The physical world has a time delay compared to the metaphysical
- Live like your desire has already happened, because this changes your vibrational energy and in 4-6 weeks you’ll start to see seeds being planted in the physical world.
- Celebrate every outcome, especially the negative (perceived negative, there are no negatives)
- Men respond more to challenge, women more to validation
- ‘We chase a rabbit, then once we catch it we give ourselves permission to feel accomplished. Why not feel accomplished now?’
- ‘I love the game, not the outcome’
- ‘If your energy isn’t in in alignment with your goals, you’re not going to achieve much’
- Sit down with a bit of paper and write down what’s the biggest thing holding me back from getting what I want
- The strongest trees grow in the strongest winds

1:41:50 What are your predictions for your industry in the next 5 to 10 years?
For coaching and personal development industry it’s going to be massively overcrowded. Influencers won’t be as powerful. Most coaches won’t make it.
Are you worried that it’s getting crowded? Not if you’re good.
There’ll be more restrictions in the future, more rules from the government etc
1:43:30 Did you achieve your goals that you set yourself over the last 12 months?
Yes. I should have set bigger goals. Even the goals I set I thought were big goals.
Note from Zac: Set goals to grow, set goals that you can’t achieve, that are unreachable, so we can go for the moon and get the stars.
1:44:55 What goals have you set yourself over the next 12 months? Are there any that you’re willing share with us that we could help by keeping you accountable?
To be very very well known as a coach in Australia. To be the guy to go to and I’m going to be on the news.
1:46:10 Who are you looking to connect with?
Anyone out there right now who is wanting to learn the art of either coaching or sales and they want to come into my business and they want to learn and start generating, I have opportunities for anyone that is fully committed in finding a way to master sales or coaching.

...more May 20, 2019030: How To Transform Our Inner World To Reflect A Better Outer World, 20 Years Coaching Experience, Creating Successful Businesses & Exploring Astral Travel with Aymen Fares iTunes | Stitcher
Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to episode 30 of the white pony network podcast.
We have another awesome guest who is presenting at the next MindAim Conference.
I first had the pleasure of meeting Aymen nearly two years ago thanks to Meet-Up, through forex and then bitcoin randomly enough. We have kept in touch since, as I have been fascinated by Aymen’s successful business experience, and as I grew my inner game I then had a big interest in Aymen’s profound understanding of the metaphysical world, running spiritual.com.au plus being a coach for over 20 years.
Aymen has run a property development company, been a trader, a policeman and run several entrepreneurial ventures. His ability to help others has really stood out. The content on his website is testament to that. At one stage Aymen had 6,000+ unique visits per day. Just amazing.
We go pretty deep here, but bear with us as Aymen explains many things and answers many of the questions that we often feel that we don’t have the answers to. I personally love this stuff. He is an extraordinary and very successful man with a profound understanding of life, who we can definitely learn a thing or two from!
So please enjoy this episode with Aymen Fares

My Biggest Take-Aways- Through physical activity we can train our mind just through doing what is incredibly difficult or annoying.
- Everybody has a money ceiling, which is an emotional link to money
- How do we change our money ceiling or financial thermostat – Identify emotions in your body, locate them and physically remove them
- If we confront a fear, it goes away very quickly. What better way of conquering a fear than facing it?
- The bark is always worse than the bite
- All advertisers need to evoke emotion in you and unfortunately most people don’t understand emotion or how they’re manipulated by emotion and they don’t really have the tools to deal with it. This is why I teach what I teach.
- My belief is that you are responsible for everything that happens to you
- Anxiety is really just an extreme form of worry that translates into feelings in your body that can be changed so quickly and easily
- Depression is living in the past where you get stuck in a particular situation that you can’t see a way out of. It’s like you come to a grinding halt. That is depression. Again that can be changed. People don’t want to change it internally because they have to face up to certain choices in their life. It’s never as bad as it seems, it can be changed.
- Thoughts, Emotions, Energy
- Almost all of our thoughts are negative. This is why meditation is important, to slow our thoughts down to catch them and deal with them. We need to understand what we think on a second to second basis until it becomes automatic
- Try and hold a positive thought for 17 seconds. It’s a great skill to strengthen
- If you can clear emotion and thought, it leaves open the door to an imprint from another realm, which really is like a sixth sense and that is intuition
- Intuition only works in that beautiful flow state when you’re not thinking and have no emotions of any type blocking it.
- A lot of people don’t want to be in a flow state because they want control. The control of thinking yes this is who I am (based on what others have said and limiting beliefs etc across our lifetime)
- Your actual energetic makeup has already set goals for you whether you know it or not, so you can let go and get into that flow state and allow things to happen to you, allow intuition to kick in. You can do that quite safely, and then as soon as you see what you end up getting, there’s your reflection and then you can make changes from that and get something different the next time.
- Visualise your goals with the feeling that you think you’ll have when you reach your goal and you can move towards them very quickly
- Emotions draw up blocked energy from the past. In order to generate an emotion, you need to have too many thoughts that you can’t process properly and it created an emotion which is like an energetic block in your body. Where as a feeling is where you just feel something, and we’re designed to feel our way through life. I meet someone and it feels good or it feels bad. What clouds that is my emotion. Which blocks the true feeling of that situation
- What in my makeup from last week or last year has lead me done this particular path to make these events appear?
- Rather than looking at is as one life after another different aspects of the whole are all experiencing everything simultaneously. So when people say ‘I can delve into a past life’ the reason they can do that is not because they’re transcending time, it’s because they’re transcending space. So everything is location based, not time
- You’d be surprised as to how many dead minutes you have around the place where you can listen to something or read something
- When it comes to reading, it’s all about the practical application of what you’ve just read

Thoughts and emotions have always held me back. Learning how to take control of my thinking process and learning how to remove those stuck emotions have helped the most, which is why I teach it.1:24:25 What is your favourite quote?
Fear is the foundation of all human limitation1:29:30 What are the best books you’ve read and/or resources that you’ve got the most from?
Follow your intuition. Conversations with God by Neil Donald Walsh is an excellent book. Someone may go and get it and say that it’s the most boring book where as someone else may think it’s the best book that they’ve ever read. So use your intuition to select a book and go for it.1:34:50 Best Movies, TV Shows & Documentaries?

With all of the knowledge that people have, slowly the world will advance, there’s no doubt about it.

Nearly1:38:20 What goals have you set yourself over the next 12 months? Are there any that you’re willing share with us that we could help by keeping you accountable?
A flourishing online business and YouTube channel impacting a lot of people.I believe that you retain a lot of energy behind the goal when you don’t share it with others. There is no reason to be held accountable because there is no particular reason to have something done by a particular date unless it’s to earn a certain amount of money, because money and time are interchangeable. It’s like just by talking about it, you could be dissipating the energy that has been built up.1:47:30 Who are you looking to connect with?
Anyone who is business orientated, entrepreneur, looking to improve their life through delving into their mind. Anyone who is positive, spiritual, entrepreneurial.1:48:40 Where can our listeners reach you?

Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to episode 29 of the White Pony Network Podcast.
Today we have two very special guests who are presenting at the next MindAim Conference!
I had the pleasure of meeting Dom 3 years ago at one of his Entrepreneur Club events and I noticed how much of a great networker he was. He was very switched on and was brilliant at bringing people together and offering great value. I soon also had the pleasure of meeting his wife Karina, and it’s easy to see why this family team does so well.
Dom and Karina are leaders of an international mentorship program, direct a marketing agency and are the co-organisers of The Entrepreneur Club in Melbourne. Dom has also co-authored a best-selling book.
In this conversation we go through Dom & Karina’s journey, the difficulties we have with breaking away from our own familiar, the business and how Dom & Karina have been able to create a system that ensures lasting development and growth of what they’re building, dealing with challenges, recommended books, amazing quotes and concepts sprinkled throughout as well as plans for the future.
These two people are amazing and are always putting others first and offering immense value and as a consequence reaping well earned rewards.
So please enjoy this conversation with Dom & Karina McKenna

My Biggest Take-Aways- What’s easy now is hard later. What’s comfortable now is uncomfortable later. What’s uncomfortable now is comfortable later
- You attract what you are, not what you want. Early on Karina attracted guys who validated all the negative things about her that she believed to be true
- 1+1 = 11
- We redesigned or identify versus just falling into the next thing, which is what a lot of people do
- Most people when they try to figure out who they are. A lot of the time what you think you are is what other people have told you that you are
- The path of most resistance is the best path for growth. We avoid struggle when that is often what builds the character
- DMGB – Doesn’t Matter Get Better
- No one’s blogging about us online, I am blogging about myself in my mind, so I am my worst critic
- Who we are vs how we are
- The only difference between where we are now and where we want to be is a lack of information
- Don’t pay emotional attention to the reaction, pay it to the event itself
- Feel it so you can heal it
- This too shall pass, however if too shall repeat if you don’t change
- Pain + Reflection = Progress (Ray Dalio)
- You can only take people as far as you’ve gone before
- A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still
- Better people make better business owners
- 10/80/10 Principle – Top 10: People who give all they have all the time. Majority 80: Reliable, do the job. Bottom 10: Just coasting. The aim is to move as many people from the 80% to the 10% as they can (Urban Mayer)
- Hard work beats talent when talent won’t work hard
- Seek to understand rather than to be understood
- People are never where we want them to be, they’re just where they’re at
- ‘A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts, therefore they live in a world of illusions’ – Ryan Holiday
- Most people spend too much time listening to themselves and not enough time talking to themselves
- Be your own ultimate cheerleader
- We compare ourselves to things that are not real and this is the thief of joy
- If you’re going through hell, just keep going. There’s no point coming back
- Authentic leadership is healing the parts of ourselves so that we can heal others as well

An awesome upbringingRe-creating my identity after the rough party patch of lifeMeeting KarinaEarning mentorshipHaving a daughter1:20:25 What are some inner areas that tend to hold you back or have held you back and how are you able or have been able to overcome them?
Self-sabotage would be the biggest thing. Most people spend too much time listening to themselves and not enough time talking to themselves. Our days would be so much better if we had better self-talk. We compare ourselves to things that are not real and this is the thief of joy.1:24:55 What is your favourite quote?
Do not become weary in doing good deeds, because at a proper time you will reap a harvest if you do not give up – Escalations 6:9The significant problems we face in life cannot be solved at the level of thinking we were at when we created them – Albert Einstein
Dom heard a brutal one the other day: ‘People who have no vision watch television’
Most people overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in five
