Introduction

"The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire!"

Field Marshal Ferdinand

This is not a book of good ideas! You have enough good ideas of your own. Nor is it a collection of pleasant sounding philosophies. What you are holding in your hands are the true and timeless secrets of success that have been used by successful men and women throughout history. To paraphrase Albert Einstein: this is not philosophy: this is the law. This book is for ambitious people with great aspirations who want to get ahead faster. If this describes you then this book was written for you! The secrets contained in the pages ahead will save you years of hard work in achieving the SUPERGOALS that are most significant to you.

I have written several books, given many talks about success and led many seminars all about some aspect of personal development and human potential. In each case I always focus on the best ideas, strategies and techniques to inspire people to live extraordinary lives. If I was only given one minute to speak to you and convey something that would dramatically alter your life and guarantee your future success it would be this: Discover what you love to do, resolve to become the very best at it, write down your goals, make action plans to achieve them and resolve in advance never to give up on them! This council if followed, more than anything else will do more for you than anything else you could possibly learn. It is more valuable than any University degree. This single succinct piece of advice when applied has enhanced more people’s lives than anything else. It has changed my life and it can change yours as well.

Your time and your life are valuable. As Jean La Fontain said Man was made so that whenever anything fires his soul, impossibilities vanish and that is what this book is designed to do. My goal is to fire your soul and allow your perception of your life to shift so that all your self-imposed limitations and limited thinking can vanish into the past. Then and only then will you grasp your own true potential for greatness, your own capacity for prosperity and abundance.

It is a huge waste of time and your life is spending years achieving something that could have been accomplished in just a matter of months. The strategies for setting and achieving SUPERGOALS as laid out for you in the following pages are practical, simple, and proven. They will facilitate the achievement of your goals and dreams in a vastly shorter period of time than you can imagine. You will be amazed!

For over 25 years I have learned from observing highly successful people in a variety of professions how they’ve created lives of meaning, abundance and fulfillment. The first pre-requisite to great success in life is to decide with crystal clarity, specifically and positively what it is that you actually want. The more vividly you can create this picture in your mind, the more specific you are, the greater the likelihood of it coming into fruition.

In my experience of dealing with thousands of people traveling and working in over 135 countries has taught me one clear and very valuable truth. You can transform your life from one of poverty and frustration to one of extraordinary affluence, influence, and abundance. By following the distilled essence of SUPERGOAL-achievement you will do more, achieve more and become more in just a few short years than others do in an entire lifetime.

In the pages that follow will be the answers to some of life’s key questions you likely have asked yourself such as:

How can I get control of my life and time?

Why are some people more successful and effective than others?

How to heal past broken relationships and let go of painful past experiences so as to embrace your compelling future?

How do I get from where I am to where I want to be?

How do I achieve my most significant goals faster and with less struggle?

How to develop clarity about who you are, why you’re here and what you really want?

How to say no to the good so you can say yes to the great!

You will learn the amazing power of disciple, how to prioritize and with crystal-clear focus what to do more of, what to do less of, what new things, skills and projects to work on and what activities that are hindering your progress and that are no longer consistent with your vision of your compelling future. For Talent without discipline as Jackson Brown Jr. said is like an octopus on rolling skates. There is plenty of movement, but you never know if its forward, backwards or sideways. Don’t be like an octopus on roller skates learns how to think the same way as the most effective and successful people think who ever lived. As Norman Cousins said Death is not to the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss in life is what dies inside us while we are still alive! And this is not for you.

Give Back Your Heart

The time will come when with elation,

You will greet yourself arriving at your own door,

In your own mirror, and each will smile at the other’s welcome and say, sit here, eat.

You will love again the stranger who was yourself.

Give wine, give bread. Give back your heart to itself.

To the stranger who has loved you all your life,

Whom you ignored for another, who knows you by heart.

Take down the love letters, from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,

Peel your own image from the mirror.

Sit and feast on life.

Derek Walcott

Achieving your SUPERGOALS is as simple as making a choice; a commitment to your own self. An unbreakable resolve to being the best you can be, to living an extraordinary life. Your interest and commitment you’ve already demonstrated by reading thus far is significant. You should acknowledge yourself for making such a great choice.

Enthusiastically

Secret # 1

YOU HAVE GENIUS CAPACITY!

"When a highly educated person living at the outer edge of his or her potential dies, it is as if an entire library burned down."

Inside you lay talents and abilities that you can’t imagine or even comprehend. Quantum physicists tell us that each person alive today has at least one million atoms in their body that were once in the body of Genghis Khan, Christ, Buddha, Confucius, Lou Tzu, Zhen Chen Gong, Saddam Hussein and even George Bush. 10 to the power of 15 (10 x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10 =) the number of atoms that have gone through your body in just the last 3 weeks that have been in every living being on earth. The same power that orchestrates a hundred billion galaxies in perfect order keeps your heart beating. When The Universe created you it broke the mold. You have genius capacity.

You are actually a mind equipped with a body to carry it around. You are not what you think you are; You are what you think about. Your brain has more than 30 billion brain cells, each of which is connected and interconnected to a complex network of at least another 10 trillion cells throughout your body. What this means is that the number of possible thoughts that you can think is greater than the number of molecules in the known universe.

You have genius capacity which means that you have the capability to think and learn and retain at incredible rates more information that you can imagine. It has been said that When a highly educated person living at the outer edge of his or her potential dies, it is as if an entire library burned down.

Scientists marvel at the complexities of modern day computers and are amazed. Yet, current research in human capacity reveals they pail in significance when compared to the potential of the human mind. One university of neurology is predicated on the notion that the human brain is a computer of enormous ability, but computers don’t wake up one morning and choose to have a new attitude towards life. Nor do they have moments of spiritual awakening, whereas human beings experience them all the time. Computers don’t find anything suddenly meaningful. For them every download of data is the same, a collection of zero’s and ones arranged in a coded language. Yesterday’s Email is no less significant than sacred text and no more.

If we took just one DNA strand from just one of your cells and attached it to a 767 airliner traveling one thousand kilometers an hour, it would take approximately two hundred thousand light years for it to completely unravel. When the eastern sacred text, the Bhag Vad Gita say’s that all the wisdom, knowledge, and information in the entire universe is contained inside of you; it wasn’t kidding and when King Solomon in the Bible book of Proverbs wrote, Oh Lord I laud you for I an so wonderfully made. That was the understatement of the millennia.

You are designed for achievement, you’re engineered for success, you’re endowed with the seeds of greatness. You are unique in the entire universe, you are wonderful to the core. In The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe the author Warren Russell states Every man has consummate genius within him, some appear to have it more than others only because they are more aware of it than others are and the awareness or unawareness of it is what transform each one of them into masters or holds them down to mediocrity. Mediocrity is self inflicted, Greatness is self bestowed. Every successful man carries with him the key that unlocks that awareness allowing universal power to flow making him into a master. Successful men throughout history have learned to multiply themselves by gathering thought energy into high potential and using it in the direction of the purpose intended. St. Augustan said, I have looked outside myself and that was a mistake and Rumi said Behold you are within me and all the time I looked out there for thee.

If you desire to be of the elite and achieve the greatness that you are capable of you must become totally committed to the SUPERGOALS that you chose to achieve and then force yourself to become resistant to diversions that will inevitably arise. We use up nature’s natural resources by using them up. Man is unique in that we use up his natural resources by not using them at all. Regarding genius, Deepak Chopra writes There’s intelligence in the human body and this intelligence is the ultimate and supreme genius which mirrors the wisdom of the universe. It is an exquisite pharmacy of nature with no side effects; in fact the directions are included in the packaging.

Genius comes from the Latin word Guardian Spirit. The dictionary defines Genius as exceptional or transcendent intellectual or creative power. The potential creative capacity of the human mind is for all practical purposes infinite. The un-recognition of that simple truth is a tragedy. You are designed for achievement, engineered for success no doubt about it you are endowed with the seeds of greatness. Your mind is like a sleeping giant. The richest discovery you will ever make is the discovery of the genius you really are. Emerson said speak your truth and speak it as loud as canon balls. Thomas Edison said If we all did the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves. Most people have no idea how talented and how much potential they really have. Does that include you?

There is magic and majesty encoded in your DNA waiting to be activated. What talents or gifts do you have that are dormant just sitting there that you’re not doing anything with at all. This should be your goal. Why? Because YOU have genius capacity.

Everyone is a Work in Progress

After I went bankrupt in the construction business as a 27 year old kid I began a quest to what I thought was to regain or recapture my lost money. This has been called the miracle of personal development. I took dozens of seminars, listened to literally thousands of audio recordings and read countless books on a tremendous variety of subjects all related to the human potential movement or personal development industry. I learned and gained expertise about real-estate, sales, negotiation, construction, health and fitness, aviation, and various healing modalities. I studied metaphysics, philosophy, psychology, religion, spirituality and whatever else intrigued me.

An amazing thing happened. I discovered that through personal development you can get yourself into and out of almost any situation. I learned that by learning what you need to learn to achieve the SUPERGOALS that you have set for yourself, that within reason there is no limit as to what you can be, have, or do. The truth is the future belongs to the competent. Information and how to get that information the fastest is the Robin Hood of the 21st century. It will steal from the ignorant and give to the well-informed. The future belongs to the well informed, the better informed. The future doesn’t belong to those who have more versus those who have less. The future belongs to those who know more versus those who know less.

At no other time in human history has there been a need to keep up with current intel and knowledge. Knowledge and intel in your field of expertise is doubling every few years and that means that whatever intel you have at present is rapidly becoming obsolete. You must create the habit of consistently taking in new information and ideas just so stay even.

There are 3 ways that will guarantee you not only stay abreast with your competition. By creating the lifelong habit of ding these three things you will excel by out-earning, out-performing and out-selling them. In short you must learn more to earn more.

Read In Your Field of Expertise 30 minutes Everyday!

You must read for a minimum of 30 minutes every day something educational in your chosen field of expertise. Also you must read empowering, inspiring and enlightening stories of other people who you aspire to be like. If you neglect this you will be passed by, by your competitors. Tony Robbins original success teacher Jim Rohn who Tony worked for three years says Work at least as hard on yourself as you do on your job.

Stop watching TV. Better yet, sell your TV. 95% of television viewing is a deterrent to reaching your SUPERGOALS. This will free up a lot of valuable time. So having no time is only an excuse. If you read at least one hour a day that will amount to at least 3 books per month. That makes about 35 books a year and over 10 years will total at least 350 books which is the equivalent of a Ph.D in your field every year. Remember in the information age if you don’t do this you are putting yourself in jeopardy. You will be in serious danger of becoming obsolete over the passage of time. However if you heed this warning and develop this habit I promise that you will become one of the smartest, best informed and most influential, results-driven productive people in your UAE. Unique area of Expertise.

Listen to Audio Programs Daily!

To earn more you must learn more. This is the rule. The only way to move ahead in your field faster is to become more valuable. And the only way to become more valuable is to learn more. You must learn how to do what you’re doing: faster, cheaper, and better. The way your conducting your business will be old fashioned and obsolete sooner than you realize. I have personally listened to over 2,500 audio programs in the last 25 years and I can’t recommend this habit strongly enough.

On your way to work whether you are driving or taking public transportation you can turn that wasted down time into learning productive time by simply investing in a little CD player and listening to audio programs. Just one great idea or insight can ignite a process that could make you a fortune or at the very least pay for the audio-programs by 10x.

Seminars, Workshops and Trainings!

Listen to the experts live and attend their seminars. The seminar leader typically has spent many years developing his expertise and hundreds of hours designing and assembling the material necessary to conduct the program that you can assimilate usually in a day or two. Often you can save yourself months and even years by attending a training given by an expert who lives and shares his passion in state of the art ways to help you get from where you are to where you want to be.

I know several highly successful people that earn over a million dollars a month who continuously upgrade their skills and awareness by taking literally dozens of seminars a year. They realize one very important principle: By continually increasing their knowledge and skills in the most valuable areas in their lives a strange thing happens. They become wiser, faster and more valuable; and this translates into more earnings and more profits.

When you attend a seminar or a talk by an expert who is sharing some of the most current ideas in his field of expertise be alert for new ideas and insights that will be presented to you. Often you will be literally bombarded with new insights, ideas and strategies that could propel your life to the next level. I know countless people whose lives have been completely changed as a result of attending a single seminar or talk in which they received a single insight or awareness that was just what they need to here that altered the entire direction of their future.

Personally I fly overseas every year to take at least two seminars from world-class experts to keep up with the latest techniques, strategies and process’s that will increase my level of expertise and expand my level of consciousness while making me more valuable. In turn I then utilize these skills and apply this increased awareness to help my clients and seminar participants to reach their SUPERGOALS faster, easier and with more joy.

Combining these three reading, listening to audio-programs and attending several seminars per year through-out your life will propel you with greater speed towards your SUPERGOALS than you can imagine.

Old Wealth vs. New Wealth

Throughout human history, wealth has been contained in real-estate, labor, capital, machinery and other hard assets. Wars and revolutions have been fought over their control. In fact almost all wars are fought over these things. The people who could orchestrate these various sources to produce products and services for the marketplace became the wealthy.

However in the 20th century things changed quite dramatically at a speed which is unimaginable. In 1900, 50% of the American population lived on farms raising livestock and growing vegetables and grain for the other 50% who lived in the urban areas. In the year 2006 less than 3% of Americans live on farms and they not only produce the food for the other 97% of Americans but a huge surplus that they sell and give away to the entire planet.

We have moved from the agricultural age to the industrial age to the service age to the information age in less than a hundred years. The primary source of value today has shifted away from hard assets to knowledge, information and ideas. But please don’t take this to an extreme I still believe that long-term revenue producing real-estate such as residential rental apartments, retail stores and commercial buildings are the safest and surest way to store and increase your wealth.

You can create an unlimited future for yourself if you just learn how to tap into your own potential mind-power and channeling that energy into some great good. Perhaps the richest man in the world is Bill Gates of Microsoft. His net worth is greater than IBM which has been in business many decades longer. Bill Gates the richest man in the entire world claims that his company’s only asset is imagination. It creates value and ultimately wealth by making it easier to process information digitally within computers, and from computer to computer by telephone lines, wireless systems and satellites.

The ability to create and sustain wealth today is based on mental strength rather than physical strength. If you own a company your main assets walk out the door every night at quitting time. The chief assets of any organization or any individual are contained in the ability to think and apply that thinking to getting results that other people will pay for.

In the old days it may have taken many years for a person to save the required capital to start and build a successful manufacturing business. However today such and expenditure in physical assets can actually be a liability since a change in technology on the other side of the planet can render a multi-million USD manufacturing plant obsolete in a matter of months.

But what you possess right now is more valuable; your mind. It is completely, versatile, portable, and flexible and its capacity for learning and retaining intelligence is almost limitless. That is, if you learn how!

An immigrant could arrive in Shanghai, Singapore or San Francisco with no more than a passport but possess that ability to create a multi-million USD business all within his head. He could walk up to the customs and when asked anything to declare and with all honesty reply No, Nothing to Declare, get his passport stamped and walk right on through. His assets are all in his knowledge and skill and that is exactly how many of the wealthiest entrepreneurs and business people arrived in America.

As business and management expert Peter Drucker says The primary source of value today is knowledge and how fast you can get that knowledge. If anybody comes up with and idea to do something faster, better and cheaper that will improve peoples lives; that idea can spread around the world via the internet and be in the hands of untold millions in virtually no time at all. This was considered virtually impossible just 15 years ago.

Change is Constant

There are only 4 great Laws in the Universe! One of them is Change is Constant. SUPERGOAL - achievers today are those who are constantly exposing themselves to new ideas from a variety of sources. Non- SUPERGOAL – achievers or losers in contrast are those who continually re-circulate the same outworn ideas of yesterday using very little imagination or creativity. The average human-being thinks 50-60,000 thoughts per day but as Deepak Chopra suggests the problem lies in that they are mostly the same old stale thoughts of yesterday.

Its no secret, things on this planet are changing quite rapidly. According to the Menninger Institute, the most important quality that you will need to be successful in this century is the quality of flexibility. This is so especially in the way you think. Flexibility refers to ones willingness to change and try new things. This is most revalent in regards to your ability to continually abandon old, out-moded ideas in favor of new, improved and more effective ways of doing things.

Case in point: When I was a builder in Canada I subscribed to Housing Magazine and one day I read about a 3-day seminar/conference in Orange County, California. This was about 30 years ago. My friend Jordon and I had recently acquired our private pilot’s licenses so we decided to rent a 4-seater Cessna 180 and fly down to LA from Canada and attend this event. We did and were we in for a delightful surprise. Being in our 20’s we were the youngest builders in attendance and our knowledge of the construction and building industry was about to explode. For 3 days we were shown housing project after housing project and let in on all the inside secrets from land acquisition, to costs of the land and materials, right down to the exact target marketing and sales strategy and profits. The result the very next year my income tripled and I became one of the top 10 builders on Vancouver Island, and I was only 27 years old. And Jordon well he did well too and this year in 2006 his earnings have grown exponentially to over a million dollars per year.

A lot of people spend far too much time arguing, defending, rationalizing and justifying certain out-worn behaviors. They become rigid, determined to continue doing things the same old way when it is obvious to everyone else that the old way is no longer working. Avoid this tendency by being flexible, especially when you are convinced you are right. SUPERGOAL- achievers who rise to the top of their organizations are willing to cut their losses quickly. They are willing to admit their mistakes and rectify the situation rather than stubbornly persist until matters get a lot worse. The vast majority of folks fall in love with their past decisions and once having made them are very reluctant to reversing them, even in the face of evidence against them. This is not wise. Don’t let this become your style. Instead resolve to be one of the 1st to recognize that a decision that has been made or conclusion about something that you have come to is not working because of new information that has invalidated or disproven it.

Knowledge is Not Power, Become Future Oriented

Francis Bacon is famous for coining the expression that Knowledge is Power and he was wrong.
