KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Septemics is a philosophical science based on the fact that many phenomena related to human beings occur in a sequence of seven levels. Septemics comprise a selection of scales or sequences each of which breaks down various human phenomena into a hierarchy of seven steps. There are 35 step scale which span the spectrum of human experience – there is no situation that is going to arise for a human being to which one (or more than one) of these 35 scales will not apply. It’s universally applicable.
  • Each of the 35 scales has seven levels and each one is an axis of human phenomena. In order to correctly evaluate a person, there are many axes to measure a person. Some people are high on one scale and low on another, for example: Einstein was a genius, that’s level one on the scale of human ability, one the scale of basic purposes he was not at the top of the scale he was at maybe level two or three possibly level four. 
  • I worked for decades as a human development engineer very successfully, my clients were very happy with the work I did for them, some of them I worked with for hundreds and hundreds of hours over a period of years. As I was doing this I started to observe that when they would improve, they would improve in ways that were predictable to me. I never said that to them, but I noticed these facts and after a while I had these various scales of various lengths that had been written down. When a person moved on a scale as a result of our interaction, I would know what level he was going to go to because I could see what level he was at. 
  • I worked on this book for 25 years in consultation with some very brilliant associates of mine. I started passing round the transcript to my students, my clients, friends of mine and getting feedback. The feedback to this from day one was astonishingly positive. They were blown away by this. I was helping people in the hundreds as a human development engineer, now I’m helping people in the millions with this book. Anyone who reads English reasonably well can use this book alone because it has everything in it you need to improve yourself, your life and the people around you. Each of the 35 scales provides the user with an infallible way of determining the salutariness [sic] or the beneficialness [sic] of any group activity or individual.Combined, they empower one to understand, predict and manage human affairs to a degree hitherto unattainable by most.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Every one of these scales will blow the mind of the reader because this is getting into a whole new subject that apparently has been unknown until I stumbled across it.’
‘One of the axioms of this project is that you can only move to an adjacent level. Sometimes it may seem that you’ve skipped a level but that is impossible – you can go through levels quickly and easily, but you went through them nevertheless.’
‘This solves a problem that has been the bane of human existence since the beginning of society: What is the gradient? It’s impossible to lose 100lbs, but it’s possible to lose 1lb 100 times, this is true for everything – you have to have the right gradient in order to succeed.’
‘I have a hard science background, I took 26 semesters of math, when I saw this appear mathematically I knew that I was looking at natural law.’

ABOUT THE HOST

Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.

Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.

Why?

Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!

How?

Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
