SEEING THE INVISIBLE
In today’s issue of The Grip, we show you how this fundamental skill of making distinctions—a skill you utilize everyday already by default—can be intentionally harnessed and leveraged for your benefit.
Why does that matter? Because where distinctions increase, so do options to navigate your world—how you lead, love, create, and serve. The opposite is true as well: where distinctions decrease, so do options to navigate your world.
MASTERING INSPIRATION
When cultivated, inspiration is a force for making miracles in your life—it will accelerate your growth and impact. To experience more of it, you’ve got to get a handle on what makes inspiration thrive and what snuffs it out.
Discover how mastering inspiration is key to actualizing the fullness of life you’re designed for.
TODAY: WHY IT’S THE ONLY DAY THAT MATTERS
Mel Fisher’s relentless spirit embodies The Innovator Leader’s mindset—a commitment to keep creating in the face of uncertainty and adversity while working to bring the vision to life. And it is a powerful demonstration that our only access to impacting tomorrow is by acting today.
Read on to discover why!
THE SURPRISING EASE OF DECISIVE LEADERSHIP
As a leader, you likely face hundreds of decisions a day, which will be stressful and fatiguing if you’re pouring great amounts of time and energy into each one. That’s why becoming decisive is so valuable; it transforms your relationship to this critical skill. When practiced regularly, decisiveness correlates with higher rates of happiness, life satisfaction, mental wellbeing, and overall success.
BRIDGING THE CLARITY GAP
Have you ever been unclear about what you want in life? For some, lack of clarity is a steady state; for others it ebbs and flows in different seasons. Maybe you’re in the midst of murky waters right now.
In this issue of The Grip, we uncover five significant reasons people are often unclear about what they want and introduce a powerful tool to help you create clarity for what you want anytime you need to do so.
BEYOND VISUALIZATION
If you've done any amount of personal development work, you are already familiar with the concept of visualizing your desired outcomes. Why does it seem to work for some but not for others?
Harnessing the subconscious is the differentiator between visualization that propels your life forward and visualization that unintentionally creates more of what you don't want.
In this week’s issue of The Grip, we show you the next critical step for harnessing your subconscious: reprogramming it.
WHY YOUR BRAIN RESISTS CHANGE
In this week’s issue of The Grip, we contend with a harsh reality that arises when you attempt to reprogram your subconscious brain: either it works inconsistently or not at all.
What’s going on?
MEET YOUR HIDDEN SUPERPOWER
The subconscious brain operates in the realm of the unseen. It has access to options and information that never make it onto the conscious brain’s radar. Between it’s processing capability, it’s 24/7 operation, and it’s access to mind-boggling amounts of information, the subconscious brain is your own AI companion.
This is why mastering your subconscious brain makes such a difference in what you achieve in life—the more you move conscious desires into the domain of the subconscious, the more power gets behind fulfilling them.
FORWARD FOCUS
Thus begins the cultivation of one of the most disempowered thought processes known to man: focusing on what you don't want in an effort to achieve what you do want.
This disempowered focus gets initiated, then habituated, and eventually automated so that by the time you’re about seven years old, you’re already programmed to focus on what you don’t want…you don't even know it's happening.
And it will frustrate you like nothing else in this life.
Put simply, success comes more easily and quickly when you stop focusing on what you don't want and focus on what you do want instead.
THE INNOVATOR LEADER’S EDGE
Imagine turning your greatest adversaries into your greatest allies--what if you could flip the script and have resistance work for you rather than against you?
As The Innovator Leader, you have the capacity to not only overcome resistance, but to leverage it.
In a society driven by validation, your strength lies in being indomitable—unbeatable, unbreakable, impossible to defeat or discourage, undeterred.
Not everyone is built for this; you are.
In this week’s issue of The Grip, we show you how to tap into this edge.
YOUR MISSION DOESN’T NEED A MENTOR
The real power of these types of conversations is not that they solve issues for you but that they give you access to a realm of knowledge from which you can create solutions yourself; often immediately and easily.
A mentor isn’t needed for ordinary growth. As a living being, you will grow at your default rate one way or another, because the nature of life is to grow. Your mission doesn’t need a mentor…unless ordinary growth is no longer enough for you. If you’re ready to powerfully advance your service in the world, get a masterful mentor.
The most effective way to access the realm of What You Don't Know You Don't Know—to do it frequently and consistently— is through mentorship.
In today’s issue of The Grip, we give you Eight Attributes of A Masterful Mentor so that you can identify a mentor skilled in helping you leverage What You Don’t Know You Don’t Know for your accelerated growth.
THE GAME-CHANGING ACCELERATOR FOR YOUR GROWTH
The real power of these types of conversations is not that they solve issues for you but that they give you access to a realm of knowledge from which you can create solutions yourself; often immediately and easily.
Access to this realm of knowledge allows you to see what you’ve never seen before. This is the game-changer between slow, minimal progress and rapid growth.
In today’s issue of The Grip, we reveal this powerful realm of knowledge for accelerating success in your life and show you one way to start accessing right now.
I choose to…CREATE
If anything is missing from your life, it’s only because you have not yet created it…and that’s really great news!
I choose to…ACT NOW
There is no future in the realm of direct experience.
What you call the future is actually your next right now.
Foundations 1
When the material disturbs or disrupts you in some way,
that is a great sign that you are striking gold.
So when an assertion hits a nerve,
keep digging.
Using Intentional
Intentional is not meant to be read; it is meant to be lived. It is not meant for accumulating more conceptual knowledge; it is designed for creating living experiences. The power to bring forth something new in your life through this material lies in your direct experience with each new choice, not in the idea of the new choice alone.
