Nobody is ever appreciated during the times that they should be the most. But, what happens when you realise that and start focusing on loving yourself instead of seeking approval from others?

T his is THE ONE! And it’s been around for thousands of years. This isn’t new, I’m just a messenger here folks. Albeit, a messenger who’s always got his eyes open to strange, random, voodoo goings on that play out around him. Something that I now want you to see for yourself, because when you do – everything changes. It’s just not a coincidence anymore. It’s the absolute gateway to a world of opportunity and new stratospheres of awesomeness for you and your closest people. This is the greatest life hack of all time...

How Much Do You Value Your One Life? If you could go back in time and change the course of history for the better, would you? Would you save hundreds of thousands of people and sacrifice yourself? Are you going to make the big decisions you need to make right now to get what you really want from your one life? Let’s go DEEP! And controversial. Here goes...

The fallacy of great expectation should not be underestimated. And in knowing this, I think I’ve figured out how to forever avoid disappointment. – Never expect anything from anyone. I mean, how can I be disappointed if I’m not in a state of expectation? How would that sort of mindset help or hinder my progress in business and life? Well, it sounds like a good mind-hack to develop a thick skin and to shake of all the inevitable setbacks. But on the other hand – would it lead to a blindness of reality? Will I miss important lessons about what I’m doing wrong? Will it take too long to fix my mistakes if I pay no attention to people’s opinions or actions towards me? What happens when you trade expectation for appreciation? That is the real question here. Let's go DEEP!

We all want more sales in our business and better relationships with our loved ones, and I can honestly say that understanding the art of influence is the most important skill I have ever developed; emotionally and financially. If you want to influence someone to buy from you, vote for you, go out on a date with you, or hang out with you; understanding human behaviour like a Jedi Knight gives you an unbelievable advantage. This is your how. This is the art of influence... one I highly recommend you listen to!

People can’t escape where they came from Whether it’s the hood or the Hamptons, you need to do you! Whether your mum and dad were crack addicts or on the front of The New York Times, don’t let where you came from shape every part of your future. We all have some issues from our parents no matter how good or bad they were to us, but it’s time to do your thing. I see it all the time and I feel so sorry for these kids who have no idea what life can be like because their parents never installed an ounce of confidence or belief in them. They’ve never had experiences, they’ve never been around the ‘right people’, and they’ve never felt like they had a shot. If this is you, now you do have that shot. Do what you want and then stick it to your parents later. On the flip side, maybe your parents were so good to you they made you soft and entitled. Again, drop it. Go and eat some dirt and put your big girl/big boy pants on. It’s time to do you. It's time to save your world.

My friends; whatever you want to achieve in life, start basing your dreams on foundation, not fantasy. Don’t say you’re going to do something, show the world. Action is always the right move. And now it’s your turn...

You don’t know what you’re doing but you need to deliver. You’ve a tight deadline that you’ll never be able to hit. You’ve got too much stress to do anything creative or productive at all. Well, why don’t you just… Be confident in your ability, even if it’s your first time. Make sure you deliver, but don’t stress about it. Don’t rush, but don’t dawdle. Sounds stupid, right? But it doesn’t have to be… This is ‘moving fast and slow’ – how to be hugely productive but never overwhelmed, whatever you’re faced with in business and life.

Did you know that distractions cost the average person 2 hours a day at work, and the majority of these distractions are the many attention sapping, annoying, child-like apps on our phones? Matt, Matt, LOOK AT ME! Someone you don’t care about just did something you don’t care about, again! Wow! That’s 10 hours a week, Monday-Friday, wasted. 520 hours a year! This is how to get some of that back and sky rocket your productivity at the same time.
