What is optimum performance? This question raises different responses from different people. It causes people to ponder issues like:

• How much better you could be doing in your business?
• How about your career?
• What about your relationship with someone you love?
• How about the state of your health right now?

One or more of these areas most often needs a little more attention in day-to-day life. But there seems to be so much to do, so much to accomplish if ‘more’ is the focus.

Here’s a secret: the quest for more is a trap. It never stops. But the positive side is this: Optimum performance is about playing life at the highest possible level, reaching our fullest potential.

Now the question is: if people are so full of potential, though, why are most not living up to their potential in every area of life? For some very good reasons that make perfect sense, take a look at desire, passion and fun.

DESIRE, PASSION & FUN

Do you remember when you were a kid and all you wanted to do was play? What was one thing you loved to do that you could do for hours and never want to stop? Then ask yourself why.

For most, it was probably because it was fun and exciting, and you felt good doing it. It made you happy and you never wanted to stop doing it until you dropped.

Of course, who couldn’t get hurt running, playing and challenging life once in awhile? But the reward of having fun, feeling free and the sense of accomplishment was worth the price. Youth are born natural risk takers.

But later on what happens? And why is it relevant to optimum performance?

Well, part of the reason you enjoyed what you did was the ‘positive feedback’ you received from others. The other more important part is because it was what you wanted to do. It didn’t really matter how ‘good’ you were. The ‘how good’ was secondary to just having fun.

It was the times you chose to do what you wanted that was the most fun and exhilarating. It wasn’t when someone else said you needed to do or should do something.

Optimum performance can only truly be achieved when ‘all of you’ is in the game. And life is just a game. You loved playing as a kid and it’s time to start playing again.

Just going through the motions in your relationship is so mediocre and not fun. Working in a job or career that you tolerate is not fun. Not earning the income you want is not fun. Not having the energy or health you want is not fun.

What’s NOT FUN in your life right now?

So the real question you are now faced with is this… do you want to have fun again? Do you want to play?

How great would the results be in each area of your life if it were fun again? Well it can be…and will be!

Do not confuse having fun with not putting in effort. You will achieve results in every area of your life in direct proportion to the effectiveness of the effort you put in, not the effort. Do not confuse activity with results.

In the coming months my focus will be to help you think about why you are getting the current results in your life right now and how to significantly enjoy yourself more, so that the results are the by-product of having fun and doing what you love and want to do.

The game of life is about choosing what you really want. The real trick in having more is in becoming more and having fun. It is natural to grow and become more, when we do what we love and what we want.

Optimum performance is about doing the ‘right things’ really well.

Nobel Prize winning physicists have proven beyond doubt that the physical world is one large sea of energy that flashes into and out of being in billionths of a second, over and over again. This is the world of quantum physics. They have proven that thoughts are what put together and hold together this ever-changing energy field into the “objects” that we see. So why do we see a person instead of a flashing cluster of energy? Think of a movie reel. A movie is a collection of about 24 frames a second. Each frame is separated by a gap. However, because of the speed at which one frame replaces another, our eyes get cheated into thinking that we see a continuous and moving picture.

Think of television. A TV tube is simply a tube with heaps of electrons hitting the screen in a certain way, creating the illusion of form and motion. This is what all objects are anyway. You have 5 physical senses (sight, sound, touch, smell, taste). Each of those senses has a specific spectrum (for example, a dog hears a different range of sound than you do; a snake sees a different spectrum of light than you do; and so on). In other words, your set of senses perceives the sea of energy from a certain limited standpoint and makes up an image from that. It is not complete, nor is it accurate. It is just an interpretation. All of our interpretations are solely based on the “internal map” Of reality that we have, and not the real truth. Our “map” is a result of our personal life’s collective experiences.

Our thoughts are linked to this invisible energy and they determine what the energy forms. Your thoughts literally shift the universe on a particle-by-particle basis to create your physical life. Look around you. Everything you see in our physical world started as an idea, an idea that grew as it was shared and expressed, until it grew enough into a physical object through any number of steps. You literally become what you think about most. Your life becomes what you have imagined and believed in most. The world is literally your mirror, enabling you to experience in the physical plane what you hold as your truth … until you change it.

Quantum physics shows us that the world is not the hard and unchangeable thing it may appear to be. Instead, it is a very fluid place continuously built up using our individual and collective thoughts and states of. What we think is true is really an illusion, almost like a magic trick. Fortunately we have begun to uncover the illusion and most importantly, how to change it.

What is your body made of? Nine Systems including Cardiovascular, Nervous and Skeletal. What are those made up of? Tissues and organs. What are tissues and organs made of? Cells. What are cells made of? Molecules. What are molecules made of? Atoms. What are atoms made of? Sub-atomic particles. What are subatomic particles made of? Energy! You and I are pure energy-light in its most beautiful and intelligent configuration.

Energy that is constantly changing beneath the surface and you control it all with your powerful mind

You are one big stellar and powerful human being.

If you could see yourself under a powerful electron microscope and conduct other experiments on yourself, you will see that you are made up of a cluster of ever-changing energy in the form of electrons, neutrons, photons and so on. And so is everything else around you. Quantum physics tells us that it is the act of observing an object that causes it to be there where and how we observe it. An object does not exist independently of its observer!

So, as you can see, your observation, your attention to something, and your intention, literally creates that thing. This is scientific and proven. Your world is made of spirit, mind and body. Each of those three, spirit, mind and body, has a function that is unique to it and not shared with the other. What you see with your eyes and experience with your body is the physical world, which we shall call Body. Body is an effect, created by a cause. This cause is Thought. Body cannot create. It can only experience and be experienced … that is its unique function. Thought cannot experience … it can only make up, create and interpret. It needs a world of relativity (the physical world, Body) to experience itself. Spirit is All That Is, that which gives Life to Thought and Body. Body has no power to create, although it gives the illusion of power to do so. This illusion is the cause of much frustration. Body is purely an effect and has no power to cause or create. The key with all of this information is how you learn to see the universe differently than you do now so that you can manifest everything you truly desire.

To you having it all,

John

How Quantum Physics, Your Brain, and Your Heart Manifest Your Vision and Goals

For many years I heard that you had to start with a vision for your business or your life if you really wanted to succeed, but no one could explain to me why it was needed or how it worked from a practical or scientific standpoint.

When I was young and naïve, I was skeptical and wanted empirical evidence showing me why I should invest my thoughts and time into really thinking about a vision for my life and business, and why getting absolutely clear by writing it down was imperative to my achieving success.

Even though I couldn’t find adequate answers at the time, reluctantly, I did as others suggested purely because they were far more successful than I. As I was told “don’t ask so many questions” and “just do it,” I temporarily gave up my need for so many answers—but not for long.

At the ripe young age of 21, I created a grand vision for my life and my career. Even though I had only graduated from high school, and everyone told me that “you need a college degree to really succeed,” I took a different approach and got into business at a very young age.

For the next 26 years, I stayed on a healthy mental diet to train my brain, and followed the belief of allowing the universe to guide me and bring me whatever I needed to fulfill my visions of being financially free and living an extraordinary life.

After building four multi-million dollar businesses—one of which grosses more than $5 billion a year in sales—and having made millions of dollars for myself and others, I began to search for the answers to the question I’d had 25 years earlier—“Why is having a clear and precise vision so important?”

I couldn’t help wanting to know why. As a child I was very curious and my parents could not answer many of the questions I had about success. After all, they only had a total of 5 years of school between them and had never made more than $30 thousand in a year.

Since I wanted more for myself, I sought out the best minds, researchers, and teachers in the world to teach me how to have an abundant life in all areas.

So, what did I learn that you can apply immediately and benefit from my lessons?

Simple: Without a clear and precise vision of exactly what it is you want, you’ll never reach it or have it.

Now of course I will not leave you hanging without understanding why.

My research has taken me into the world of quantum physics and neuroscience for the answer to the question “why is it so important to start with a vision?”

Let’s start with the world of quantum physics. First and foremost, quantum physics is the study of how the very small world, one we cannot see with our eyes, operates. Since we live in two worlds—one that we can see—and one that we cannot, it’s important for us to know what these two worlds offer us. Scientifically we now know that even though we cannot see any connection, both worlds are totally interconnected at every level.

Newtonian physics helps us understand how to navigate the known physical world, and quantum physics helps us to understand the very intelligent non-physical world in which everything is connected to everything else, and from which and all known physical “things” are manifested.

What we’ve discovered in this new realm of quantum research is that whatever we focus on and emotionalize often, is what we will attract and actually see in the quantum field of all possibilities, or better yet, probabilities.

As weird as this may sound, this is now being proven without a shadow of a doubt. What this means is that the more clearly focused we are on exactly what we want, the easier and faster we’ll manifest everything we need to make it a physical reality.

Since all material things move from the non-physical to the physical reality, our vision and goals are paramount in the process of achievement. Our vision and focus acts like a magnet that attracts and connects the pieces together.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the universe operates by natural laws, exact precision, and perfect order. Our vision, then, must also be precise and exact in our mind in order for whatever we need to be attracted and shown to us by the intelligent forces that govern all of creation. When we focus our brain on what we want, we actually increase the amplitude of the cellular vibration and cause the “attraction” factor to really take shape.

Just like a magnifying glass can focus the sun’s rays and create a fire, focusing on our vision and goals keeps you in the right vibration and attraction field.

When we choose a vision or goal that is bigger than our current reality, we are in essence creating a gap or a vacuum between what we want and where we currently are. We know from natural law that nature fills a void or gap in the fastest and most efficient ways possible.

Now for the “brain and heart” part of the equation.

The latest research proves that when we’re fully engaged and emotionalized in our clear vision, we emit a frequency from our brain and heart that penetrates and permeates all space and time, and brings forth to us everything that’s in resonance with the image we’re holding.

The frequency we emit is our personal electromagnetic frequency. Just like a radio station that sends out a signal, we send ours out based on our dominating thoughts at a conscious and subconscious level.

Just imagine the way an apple seed attracts the nutrients it needs from the soil to grow its roots, and then once it sprouts above the ground the sun adds its magic and food through photosynthesis. Then, low and behold… the seed becomes an apple tree.

You too, will attract exactly what you need to realize your dreams when you really start to believe and feel your vision becoming a reality. It’s the clear and consistent vibration of your vision that brings forth your needs. You provide the seed, the universe provides the resources.

Therefore, you must now make your “new vision” inside your brain more real than the current results in your outside world. Then, and only then, will the universe begin to present its riches to you in the most convenient and efficient ways possible.

Your clear vision is your seed. Choose it wisely and precisely, and riches beyond your imagination in every area of your life shall be yours.

I have been doing quite a bit of research on the power of our “self-talk” and the amount of negative stuff that goes on in one’s mind is staggering.

It actually isn’t surprising when over 90 percent of what is on television and all around us points to negative news or lack.

We’re actually trained to look for what’s bad or what can hurt us before we are ever trained on seeing what’s good or possible.

We are wired to “see” negative all around us and it’s time to stop. The results are devastating and ruining many people’s lives.

I find people will fall into one of four categories:

• Negative Self-Talk
• Neutral Self-Talk
• Positive Self-Talk
• Enlightened Self-Talk

To understand their true power, look at the language that goes with each category.

Negative Self-Talk

I am not good enough
I am not smart enough
I am not young or old enough
I am not the right color
I am not this or that; you can fill in your own blanks here
I can’t do this or that because…

And then we make up a story to justify the reason. For the most part these are lies!

The Result: A life of lack and limitation backed by doubts, fears and pain. Negative self-image.

Neutral Self-Talk

I should get busier
I should get a better job
I should find a better partner
I should lose weight
I should stop procrastinating
I should…

These people are living on the negative side of comfort and will remain that way until the pain of mediocrity gets to them.

The Result: A very average life that feels it is being wasted. Possibly comfortable, but not totally engaged and pretty average. Average self-image.

Positive Self-Talk

I can or will do that
I am smart enough
I am good enough
I can or will learn that
I can and will change
I can and will overcome this
I can and will adapt to…
I can and I will find out how to…

The Result: A life that feels worthwhile and capable. Usually high self-worth and positively comfortable. Life is very enjoyable here.

Let me suggest that there is yet another breed of Self-Talk is emerging and it’s called:

Enlightened Self-Talk

GOD loves everyone, including me
GOD is in everyone, including me
Love is for everyone, including me
Peace is for everyone, including me
Happiness is for everyone, including me
Abundance is for everyone, including me
Health is for everyone, including me
Joy is for everyone, including me
Fun is for everyone, including me
Smiles are in everyone, including me
Faith is in everyone, ESPECIALLY ME

The Result: An entire society of individuals that respect themselves and each other which leads to highly productive people living their life the way our creator intended them to live-with total abundance and joy.

Please choose to live in an enlightened world with our fellow citizens and me.

Best,

John

Have you ever wondered why you have the desire to want more in and of your life?

Every one of us has the desire to grow and expand beyond our current condition and that is perfectly normal.

I’d like to suggest that the reason you want to grow and expand is because that is what your spiritual side wants.

You and I are spiritual in nature and we happen to have a body and a brain.

Spirit always wants fuller and limitless expression because Spirit knows no boundary except the ones we mortal humans place on ourselves.

There is a constant fight that goes on between the body, wanting comfort and homeostasis, and our spiritual side, which is limitless and endless.

The reason we desire and seek greatness in our life is because we are capable of it.

The higher side of our being wants to express itself through you and me and it’s our responsibility to accept the dreams, goals and passion that stir our hearts and souls.

It is spirit wanting to create and manifest on the physical plane. You and I could not have the thoughts and desires we have without the ability to fulfill them.

Our spirit uses our body to accomplish things here on earth. It is our destiny to be, have, create and become all that we desire.

Take this moment to reconnect with everything you want to do, everything you want to be, everything you want to contribute and know that all you have to do is choose and spirit moves immediately to help you accomplish whatever you desire.

Waste not your life in silent desperation to have more. Expect more and ask for more, go for more and please…… don’t forget to give more.

There’s an “intelligence” that manages the 100 million species of life on our little blue planet. Some people call it God, some call it Buddha, some Allah. It doesn’t really matter what you choose to call it; the only thing that really matters is that you understand that it’s the same intelligence that gives you life.

This intelligence automatically causes your heart to beat 86,400 times a day, creates 10 million new cells each second as 10 million die off, and causes your food to be digested while 10,000 trillion cellular actions occur in your body every second. It’s the intelligence that sustains perfect order and harmony in nature without a hiccup. You are a miracle and a genius capable of incredible accomplishments because the intelligence that created you is within YOU.

At your very essence, you are a spiritual being who has been blessed with intellectual functions. You also happen to have a body. If you’re like most people, you’ve been playing very small until now, by only using a fraction of your mental abilities coupled with your limited physical abilities. It’s time for you to believe and act like the spiritual power that you truly are and stop relying on the lower abilities that you think are your power centers. Now is the time for you to realize that you can create whatever you choose. However, you’re not alone in the process—the intelligence that manages everything in perfect harmony and order is all knowing and omnipresent. You must assume your role while trusting its brilliance.

The latest research in quantum physics shows that when you put your attention on what you want, it immediately starts to manifest into physical form. In other words, as you patiently hold onto an image (your seed) on the screen of your mind and emotionalize it, the universal intelligence starts to materialize it in physical form.

Your job as co-creator is to dream big dreams and to have absolute faith that the intelligence is doing the same with you. You must abolish your lack of faith and patience and trust that as you do the right “physical” things while having total focus, the universe will be your biggest ally and provide you with exactly what you need, when you need it.

Application of Knowledge

Take the following actions and all your dreams will become reality:

1. Get absolutely crystal clear on your vision/goals. Since you are dealing with a precision model, you must be absolutely precise in what you want to achieve.

2. By yourself or with the help of a friend or family member, create as detailed a plan as you can of what you will do now to move you toward your goals. Start by creating a plan for the next 30, 60, or 90 days.

3. Every day, focus on having already achieved your goals by visualizing being there already.

4. Focus this week on this statement of fact about yourself: “I am a spiritual being with limitless potential and I take action daily toward my goals and dreams. Abundance is my birthright.”

All the best,

John

In Getting Rich Your Own Way, Srully Blotnick points to a study in which 1,500 young people were divided into two groups.  Group A consisted of people who were embarking on a career for the money.  Group B consisted of people who chose their career because that’s what they loved to do.  The number of people in Group A outnumbered the people in Group B by a margin of 5-1.  Researchers followed these two groups for 20 years.  At the end of 20 years, 101 of 1,500 participants were millionaires.  However, the amazing thing is that all but one of the millionaires came from Group B.  Only 1 out of 1,250 people from Group A became wealthy, even though all of them made money pursuing their primary career objective.  Yet 100 of the 250 from Group B became wealthy by simply pursuing what made them happy.

If you are not trading your life for what you truly love, it may be time for a change.
