  • Bruce Lipton - The Power of Belief
    The power of belief determines the power of your personality. Today’s world is very stressful and filled with negativities created by most people because of having unattained goals or having unwanted things. It is very common to hear people blaming their genes for everything that are happening to them. In this interview with Dr. Bruce Lipton, he clarifies that genes don’t control anything yet the power of belief system does. It is our mind that controls our behavior, the power of belief is massive. He also shares that for the last 20 years, he has been living in a completely different world. It has become a heaven on earth for him since he reprogrammed himself. He explains clearly how reprogramming is all about and how this can transform not only you but everything around you.
    Key Takeaways
    We created the heaven on earth part.
    When people fall in love, they become mindful and they understand the power of belief.
    The average person uses the subconscious mind about 95% of the day to run their life and only use the conscious mind approximately 5%.
    There are two minds that are interdependent. They work together but they have different functions and they learn in different ways. Read some books about the power of belief to learn more.
    As you change your mind about life, you strengthen the power of belief, that changes the chemistry of the blood which then in turn leads to a change in your biology.
    Most people believe their life is controlled by their genes and they don’t understand the power of belief. This belief is disempowering because it makes you a victim of your heredity.
    Genes are blueprints. They provide instructions on how the make the building blocks of the body. The building blocks are called proteins.
    Genes don’t turn and off and don’t control anything. They don’t impact the power of belief.
    The fate of your cells is controlled by the chemical composition of your blood, which can be changed by the power of belief, not the genes.
    The brain is the chemist that adds elements or takes away elements and coordinates the chemistry of the blood. It's controlling the information that's going to the 50 trillion cells.
    The mind interprets the world and the brain converts that interpretation into chemistry that controls the genetic activity. The power of belief is associated with mind.
    Your perceptions and the power of belief are turned into chemistry which in turn controls your biology.
    The point is your perception of what's going on in the outside world is a perception of the mind. A mind is doing an interpretation. Incredible things can happen with the power of belief.
    No two people see the world in the same way and varies according to the power of belief.
    What's going on in each individual body is different because each body has a different perception of what they see. It changes with the power of belief of each one.
    Chemicals released when we’re in love:
    First, the chemical that comes out from love is dopamine. When a person is in love, the body feels pleasure and the power of belief is strengthened because the mind interprets loves as a perception and then love is correlated with the release of dopamine which is pleasure.
    Another chemical is oxytocin is a chemical released that will create a behavior that will make the person attached to the one who's giving him/her the love. So that's called bonding which is strengthened by the power of belief.
    In addition, vasopressin is released by the brain when you’re in love. It’s is a chemical that makes us more attractive to keep your partner present.
    Lastly, growth hormone comes out when the person’s in love. It’s the reason why people are healthier when they’re healthier.
    Chemicals released when we’re stressed have massive impact on the power of belief:
    If something scares a person, stress hormones and inflammatory agents are being released.
    The chemicals released by the brain in fear shut down the growth of the body and shut down the immune system.

  • Jack Canfield - Secret of Success
    Secret of success is not one single element, it is multifaceted. Some people feel that they are stuck at some point in their lives. They have read different types of books, gone to all seminars, but still, they’re not making any progress. In this interview with Jack Canfield, founder of Chicken Soup for the Soul, seminar leader, corporate trainer, and entrepreneur, he shares his proven success formula and principles and how these can be applied in our daily lives.  He also shares some exercises that would shift your whole life.
    Key Takeaways
    Reasons why people aren’t making a change
    People don't have the complete system of what they need to do in order to be successful.
    People are missing an emotional element, the why or the purpose. They don't have goals, visions, support group, and a mastermind partner.
    Secret of success is knowing the combination to a lock. If you know the combination to the lock, you can open it.
    If you understand the Universal Law, and you apply that correctly, then literally, you can achieve anything you want that’s the secret of success.
    People have limiting beliefs that are unconscious, breaking through all the limiting beliefs is a secret of success.
    People don't take a 100% responsibility for every aspect in their life.
    Everything you're currently experiencing is a result of how you responded to everything else that happened earlier in your life.
    E + R = O
    E stands for Events plus your Response to that event or those events equals the Outcomes that you get.
    All feelings are outcome of thoughts you've had and the meaning you've made out of events, and also the actions you take or don't take.
    Most successful people are operated by the universal set of principles that include no complaining, no blaming, no excuse making, take 100% responsibility for your results.
    One of the exercises you could do is ask yourself these questions which will help you to find the secret of success
    What did I do or not do that's producing my current reality?
    What can I do differently and when will I do that?
    What payoff do I get for keeping up like it is?
    A lot of people are suffering because there's a pay-off.
    We're addicted to comfort but the problem is growth occurs when you're uncomfortable, it lies in getting uncomfortable.
    We all have to be taking risks but you can't grow if you're not taking risks. The secret of success in your career comes down to taking risks.
    Everything you want that you currently don't have is outside of your comfort zone. That's where all the good stuff is and obviously the secret of success as well.
    If you're not a little bit uncomfortable every day, it means you're not growing, secret of success lies in getting uncomfortable
    Your life is a constant balancing going back and forth. It's a vibration.
    When we stop vibrating, we stop being alive. When we stop being a little bit uncomfortable if you will, then we're dead.
    You have to have clarity about your purpose and you get that by going inside and getting connected to that universal spirit. When we connect with that, we become enliven and we vibrate at a higher level.
    There's a vibration in nature that we can pick up and if you get your bare feet on the earth, you pick up the vibrational frequency of the earth as well which is really important.
    Green has a vibration that’s very healing.
    We're connected to that God energy, not only through vibration, but also through meditation and prayer. Secret of success comes down to our relationship with God.
    We work best when we're plugged into energy called source energy or God
    When you go into fear or into negative reaction of any kind, your body and your energy field contracts. Secret of success is not attributed to negative thoughts.
    You work better when you're calm and relaxed, this is one important secret of success legends recommend.
    Bodies of people watching violent film respond in a state of fear.
    The crucial factor in watching negative films and movies is your reaction to it.

  • Bob Bly - Online Training Courses
    Online training courses are essential for entrepreneurs. All entrepreneurs want to provide the best products so that they can sell them effortlessly, but the problem is they don’t know how to start creating one or, they have started creating, and they're having a hard time finishing it because they want it to be perfect. In this talk with Bob Bly, one of the best in the field of copywriting and Internet marketers, Bob shares steps on how to create your product and the different modes of delivering them to your target audience. One of the ways is audio which provides a more natural and less polished product, this is what the audience likes better.
    Key Takeaways
    If all your messages are sales messages, people will be turned off.
    If you make a percentage of the messages pure content that provides useful information people will appreciate it more. They'll become more loyal, bigger fans and they'll buy more.
    Slightly over half of your emails should be pure content and the other half should be pure sales messages.
    There are four learning modes of online training courses; audio-listening, video-watching, reading, and experience.
    First, you decide if online training courses or other products should be audio or video.
    Different subjects demand different media.
    Different learning modes can be mixed throughout your online training courses, depending on what your customers prefer.
    You can't please everybody all the time, which is why you mix it up and make things in different media.
    It pays to have your content in multiple formats, for example, online training courses can be audio, video or an ebook
    You can put together any information product without writing a word.
    The finished audio product has a higher perceived value than a book, particularly when they’re online training courses.
    A preferred method of selling is to generate hot traffic and to send emails from my lists and my affiliates' lists to my landing pages.
    The Process of creating online training courses
    Define the topic or problem. It could be a problem that needs to be solved or a skill set you possess.
    Make an outline listing all the key points with either bullet points or a list of questions about how to create online training courses.
    Use several options for recording and producing the audio for your online training courses
    Another  method is using Facebook as a way to outline key information and figure out what should go into the product. This should be based on what people want to know.
    Put up your own little survey page where you ask for input and list topics.
    Publishing newsletters will make people talk to you and ask questions. Those questions tell you what they want to learn.
    Creating mp3 and the recording
    Be invited to some venue, such as an internet marketing conference or a trainee association meeting, to speak on your topic where it's a big event and they're recording it.
    Deliver live in front of groups, it has the energy of the live audience feedback.
    Work with a partner who can be either be  the interviewer or a fellow subject matter expert. and essentially to have the interview or conversation which is much more dynamic
    Packaging an audio
    Sell as a stand-alone product.
    Bundle it with your other products, it can be sold for a higher price since it has a higher perceived value.
    Not editing your audio/video may keep its spontaneity and help you finish the product in a much faster time.
    The audience likes things that are more natural and less polished.
    Books are the only medium where a higher professional level of production is demanded.
    Put a really good 2-minute excerpt of your online training courses, as an autoplay video on the landing page. Luis Congdon:
    Today, you're going to be meeting copywriter extraordinaire Bob Bly. He has published over 89 books all under well established publishing companies. He has written for over hundred different clients. He has given seminars all over for the US army. He's been on national TV multiple times. Thi

  • Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. - Life Transitions
    Transitions are happening every moment in our lives, and it's so important to master the life transitions. Some people have negative reactions to it because there are times when things are not going as they plan or how they think it should be. Toltec wisdom teacher Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. talks about how respecting our emotions, having the confidence to make a choice, allowing yourself to change your mind, and perceiving the life moving around and within you, could help you move through transitions gracefully.
    Key Takeaways
    These transitions are all about life.
    Moving is always a slow process, and many critical life transitions occur during that process.
    Transition and growth comes from going into the uncomfortable and doing what is best for the family and learning how to play again.
    Going through a transition all comes down to becoming aware of ourselves, taking a step forward, making a choice, and taking the leap.
    In reality, when we enter a new stage, you're relying more on your ability to improvise and re-engage in a new environment, which is to be aware of where your new setting is, what the environment is like, and who the people are.
    Negative emotional reaction kicks in when things are not going as you plan and how you think it should be.
    If we learn to detach, be in of the environment, and not expect a single thing, it allows us to be better prepared for what's ahead.
    As we transition into new stage in life, you are the constant.
    It’s learning not to project or anticipate how it will be even though it's fun to come up with potential stories but not to get attached to them so that we can actually see what’s in front of us.
    Instead of thinking of what should be, you see what is and you get to play with that play, that’s the interesting part of life transitions.
    Personal journey or personal transformation could be easy if we were all robots to avoid of any emotion, and then all the transitions could be emotionless life transitions
    We are beings who perceive life throughout this spectrum of emotions ranging from complete joy, to complete anger, and to complete misery.
    Our narrators are the voice of our thoughts or voice of knowledge. Narrators are basically are thoughts or beliefs and ideas.
    Our narrators are there because we give them life.
    "Action speaks louder than words" but we use words to describe every action.
    The whole point of the mastery of self is taking the action and not allowing the emotions to take actions for us when your respect what those emotions are
    When we honor our emotions, we're no longer blinded by our emotions.
    When we allow life to tell the story, we can clear the narrator. Trust your own judgment and your own capacity to change your mind when it’s needed.
    The narrator could be the parasite which distorts everything you see and control your actions, or it could be the ally that tells the story that reflects life.
    The whole point of the Toltec tradition is to regain confidence in yourself to make a choice, to express to yourself, "This is what I want. This is what I don't want," and actually listen to it.
    The voices that are going to be the loudest are basically the voices that we give attention to.
    Angel training is when we learn to be the messenger and we give attention to the voices.
    Whoever we give our attention to, that's what's going to control how we respond, "Yes" or "No".
    Using patience and will in achieving something and listening to the voice that’s going to nurture it.
    Negative thoughts are the important aspect of the life transitions. The best way to change a negative thought is to let it finish. There are gaps between thoughts so you’re able to catch it and then, you shift your direction.
    Prolonging the space between thoughts is an exercise to strengthen the will and to become aware of the voices, thoughts, and narrators in our mind.
    When prolonging the gap, you’re no longer projecting but you are perceiving and becoming aware of life moving around and within you. It’s cal

  • Dale Partridge - Key to Success
    Success is a relative term, so is the key to success. Most entrepreneurs are so occupied with their businesses thinking that working hard may lead to success but they forget about their families and what their passion really is. Dale Partridge talks about how keeping the balance will result in a successful business, in fact keeping balance both in business and life is the key to success. He emphasizes that being successful is not just about money. It’s about having it all including your family, your spiritual life, your reputation, and your physical health. Mere one factor does not define success, however the key to success is an outcome of the many essential factors that we usually overlook.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    Our definition of success is based on what we’ve seen in our culture, media, and people we’ve looked up into.
    The key to success is a wide term. Success is having it all, having a strong relationship with your family, having a strong spiritual life, having a good reputation, physical health, and finances.
    If you just build the person, then they’ll build the business.
    It’s very easy to know how to start a business. What’s not easy is maturity, the ability to make good decisions, discernment, discipline, integrity, and patience.
    The more focused you are in keeping the balance, the more successful your business becomes. The key to success lies in the fact that how much you are good at keeping the balance.
    Men or women who can’t take care of their home might be successful for a time but aren’t going to have a long-term success.
    Life is all about balance and keeping balance is the key to success.
    It is a very difficult time because we live in a world where we you need to do a lot of things but it’s all about priorities and discipline.  For some the key to success may be self-discipline yet prioritizing things is equally important.
    Discipline for me has always been doing something you don’t necessarily like to achieve something you love.
    If you don’t believe your family is more important than your work, then it will show in your actions. The key to success in your relationship depends on how you prioritize your relationships.
    An entrepreneur is someone who learns how to make more money with less time.
    Not hard work but smart work is the key to success. We don’t start businesses so that we can work more. We start businesses so that we could work less so we could have more time to do those things that we do love with the people that we do love.
    You’re not an entrepreneur if your life is all about working. You’re an employee at your own company.
    Just being contented in that journey is another process and another personal maturity that I think comes along as an entrepreneur especially in the later years as you start to actually make money and be successful while trying to find the key to success.
    If your goal is making millions of dollars, you have to question yourself where your heart is and what your motivations are. Sometimes knowing the inner voice is the key to success.
    Make decisions based on what’s the dream, what you really want, and what’s next. Don’t constantly just end on one dream. Defining the key to success is a continuous process.
    Be excited for what’s next but at the same time, be happy with where you’re now. Your authentic happiness is the key to success in your life.
    Performance addiction comes with as an entrepreneur, which helps you redefining the key to success.
    If you have a strong spirit of independence that’s keeping you away from having a relationship with others, you need to break that down and allow yourself to open and create that success story from the maturity that comes with growing up. This is the key to success in building successful relationships.
    We tie our success to those negative behaviors.
    It doesn’t mean it is normal when it’s common, you need to redefine these both in order to recognize the key to success
    Constantly remember what normal i
