Speaker:

If you're sitting there and you're not building momentum and you feel like

Speaker:

you're stagnant and you feel like you're holding yourself back and you're

Speaker:

comparing yourself to others,

Speaker:

instead of comparing your daily actions to your own highest values and dreams,

Speaker:

it's time to get on with your life and do something even more profound.

Speaker:

Everybody's seen a train going down a track,

Speaker:

and the engine of that train and all the train that's behind it is pretty heavy.

Speaker:

If you can imagine actually the weight of a train engine going

Speaker:

over you, that's very massive. It's very heavy. It's got a lot of engine.

Speaker:

And when it first takes off, it's really slow,

Speaker:

but then it starts to pick up its velocity, its speed,

Speaker:

and as it does,

Speaker:

if you multiply the mass of the engine and all the train

Speaker:

cars that are behind it,

Speaker:

x the speed velocity,

Speaker:

mass x velocity determines momentum. So you might want to write;

Speaker:

momentum = mass x velocity.

Speaker:

Now it's going down a track. We could use a metaphor.

Speaker:

The track is the track of our purpose or the main

Speaker:

primary objective or primary mission that we have in life that we're

Speaker:

pursuing. The thing that's most important in our life.

Speaker:

As you know, every time I do a talk, I always mention values.

Speaker:

So this would be the very thing at the very top of the value list,

Speaker:

whatever's most important, most meaningful, most inspiring,

Speaker:

most intrinsically calling, the thing that you love doing,

Speaker:

that you can't wait to get up in the morning and do, that's the track,

Speaker:

that's the mission, that's the purpose. Now you have a mass,

Speaker:

but your velocity is based,

Speaker:

if you multiply times your mass you get to know how you become unstoppable.

Speaker:

Now what's interesting is if you're a young boy and you have as a highest value,

Speaker:

video games, you spontaneously act on it.

Speaker:

Whatever's highest on your value, you spontaneously act on.

Speaker:

But when you're doing something low on your values, you procrastinate,

Speaker:

hesitate and frustrate. You need somebody to motivate you to do it.

Speaker:

So you're most efficient, most effective,

Speaker:

most inspired, when you're doing what's highest on your value,

Speaker:

when you do, you have the least resistance, the most intrinsic,

Speaker:

you might say, drive, and your engine becomes unstoppable.

Speaker:

So everybody has a hierarchy of values.

Speaker:

If we live according to what's highest on our value list,

Speaker:

we increase the probability of being clear about what our track is,

Speaker:

our mission in life,

Speaker:

and spontaneously being inspired to act without resistance.

Speaker:

So we have the fastest speed. And,

Speaker:

if you notice whenever you set a goal and you do achieve it,

Speaker:

you tend to set a more unobtainable goal, a bigger goal.

Speaker:

And eventually you you achieve that.

Speaker:

And then you set an even more unobtainable goal. It's a more challenging goal.

Speaker:

It gets bigger.

Speaker:

Whenever you're pursuing something that's deeply meaningful and inspiring to you

Speaker:

and you achieve it, you tend to want to achieve something greater.

Speaker:

And whenever you're doing something that's lower on your values,

Speaker:

you tend to not want to have to work so hard.

Speaker:

You want to avoid the challenges and seek the immediate gratifying ease.

Speaker:

So you procrastinate,

Speaker:

hesitate and frustrate on something that takes a lot of effort,

Speaker:

but not on the thing that's most important. So if you

Speaker:

you want to make sure that you keep to priority and keep to what you value most.

Speaker:

I've used the analogy of a young boy who loves his video game,

Speaker:

when he does his video games and he's doing what he really loves,

Speaker:

he'll stay out there till two in the morning, three in the morning.

Speaker:

I have a son that did that. And you can't even get them to go to sleep.

Speaker:

They don't want to be stopped. They just want to keep going,

Speaker:

because they love what they're doing. But if you ask him to do his homework,

Speaker:

his chores, clean his room or something like that, he'll procrastinate,

Speaker:

he'll stop pretty quick and he's not going to want to keep going.

Speaker:

If you're not consistently moving towards something that's deeply meaningful and

Speaker:

inspiring and you're not building up an accelerated pace

Speaker:

or at least a faster velocity towards it,

Speaker:

you're not going to get to a point where your momentum is unstoppable.

Speaker:

That's why to start and stop and to do a job and go, eh, I don't want to do it,

Speaker:

do another job, oh that doesn't inspire me.

Speaker:

And go from job to job or relationship to relationship or to objective to

Speaker:

objective and not really find something that's deeply meaningful,

Speaker:

you're not likely to build great momentum.

Speaker:

One of my mentors told me a long time ago,

Speaker:

find a thing that you love doing 'The One Thing' as Gary Keller says it,

Speaker:

and stick to it and don't stop doing it.

Speaker:

Just keep doing it and you'll become in a sense,

Speaker:

momentum building and unstoppable.

Speaker:

Mine happens to be the Breakthrough Experience.

Speaker:

I've done it 1,166 times,

Speaker:

I'm about to do another two this week coming up.

Speaker:

And when you stop and think about it,

Speaker:

you just keep doing it and you end up building momentum.

Speaker:

The speed in which you do it builds momentum.

Speaker:

So you want to make sure that you're going after the thing that you really love

Speaker:

in life so you have the fastest velocity.

Speaker:

So you end up having the mass x the velocity,

Speaker:

build yourself a momentum and then it's like a train, you can't stop it.

Speaker:

When it gets going and it gets faster and faster, it's not stoppable.

Speaker:

If it goes off the track, it'll just keep going right into the dirt,

Speaker:

right through trees, right through cars. It'll just keep going.

Speaker:

I wonder what would happen if all of a sudden we found out what our real mission

Speaker:

is. Our mission is an expression of our highest value, the most inspiring,

Speaker:

spontaneous acting aspect of our life is that highest value. Mine is teaching.

Speaker:

That's why I love teaching the Breakthrough Experience

Speaker:

momentum that it does and the impact it has on the people it touches.

Speaker:

Anybody that's in its way are going to be transformed and they're going to have

Speaker:

a trajectory change, because you can't stop somebody who's on a mission.

Speaker:

If you go through and prioritize your life and do the things that are really

Speaker:

important to you,

Speaker:

you don't need to be motivated or reminded to do it and you're going to do it

Speaker:

spontaneously. Again, the young boy who loves his video games,

Speaker:

he won't stop on his video games.

Speaker:

He'll do it till wee hours of the morning and he doesn't want to stop and he

Speaker:

builds momentum. The second he gets past one game,

Speaker:

he goes on to the more advanced game. And the second he does that,

Speaker:

he builds up momentum, he goes to the next game.

Speaker:

And he doesn't want to stop until he is bought all the games in the particular

Speaker:

area that he loves and he just keeps going. But again,

Speaker:

you try to get him to do his homework or chores or clean up his room,

Speaker:

not likely to do that. As a mother or father you don't have to say, Hey Johnny,

Speaker:

go do your video games and stop doing your homework. Not likely,

Speaker:

it's the other way around. Because whatever's highest on his values,

Speaker:

he loves doing it and he becomes unstoppable. Whatever's low on his values,

Speaker:

he stops doing and becomes unmovable. You can't get him to move.

Speaker:

And the same thing if a child doesn't see how the classes he's taking in school

Speaker:

or the chores he's doing at home or the actions he's doing,

Speaker:

cleaning his room is going to help him fulfill what he loves most,

Speaker:

which is video games, he's not going to do it,

Speaker:

and you're going to have to push him uphill.

Speaker:

And pushing uphill doesn't build momentum. In fact it reverses it.

Speaker:

So you want to use your hierarchy of values in

Speaker:

your favor and identify it. On my website,

Speaker:

drdemartini.com I have a Value Determination process.

Speaker:

13 very,

Speaker:

very precise questions that if you answer them very honestly,

Speaker:

it can help you determine what's really meaningful to you, what's really,

Speaker:

what your life demonstrates, what is actually revealed by your daily actions.

Speaker:

Because your hierarchy of values is revealed in your daily actions that you do

Speaker:

spontaneously that you love doing.

Speaker:

But go on there and take advantage of that and do the Value Determination

Speaker:

process. Do it again a week later,

Speaker:

a month later and maybe three months later and take a look at what's really

Speaker:

priority to you that keeps showing up.

Speaker:

And then it's wise to start structuring your life around what's most important.

Speaker:

My highest value of all the values is teaching.

Speaker:

The second one is researching and writing. I constantly do that.

Speaker:

I do that throughout the day. And the next one is traveling.

Speaker:

So if you look carefully, what are your top values,

Speaker:

particularly that top one and prioritize your life and start filling your day

Speaker:

with that highest priority one, you're going to build momentum.

Speaker:

You're going to be like that train going down the track.

Speaker:

You're going to be clear. See our ontological purpose,

Speaker:

our ontological identity revolves around that.

Speaker:

Our teleological purpose revolves around that.

Speaker:

Our epistemological knowledge revolves around that highest value.

Speaker:

So you get to know yourself, you get to be yourself,

Speaker:

you get to love yourself when you're doing what's highest on the values.

Speaker:

And you become unstoppable. Nobody can stop somebody who's on a mission.

Speaker:

You know an individual that's on a mission at work and loves what they're doing

Speaker:

will sit there and work wee hours of the morning.

Speaker:

They don't care about the hours that's being imposed on them.

Speaker:

They're willing to get the job done. They don't want to stop.

Speaker:

Whether it be in work or whether it be in athletics or whether it be in studies,

Speaker:

doesn't matter what it is. If you are doing something that you love doing,

Speaker:

nobody goes to work for the sake of a company,

Speaker:

they go to work for the sake of fulfilling their values.

Speaker:

Nobody goes to school for the sake of just taking a class,

Speaker:

they go there to fulfill their values.

Speaker:

Nobody gets in a relationship just so they get in a relationship unless it's

Speaker:

fulfilling their values.

Speaker:

Every decision we make is based what we believe will give us the greatest

Speaker:

advantage over disadvantage at any moment in time to our values.

Speaker:

The hierarchy of our values. So go online, determine your values,

Speaker:

start prioritizing your life. Ask yourself,

Speaker:

what is the highest priority action I can do today that can help me fulfill

Speaker:

what's most meaningful to me, my purpose in life,

Speaker:

and that serves the greatest number of people?

Speaker:

Because there's some fulfillment by doing something of service.

Speaker:

Delegate the lower priority things. You may think, well,

Speaker:

I don't have anybody to delegate it to.

Speaker:

Well you're not going to build a momentum and do something unstoppable

Speaker:

if you're having to do everything that goes on in your day from every aspect.

Speaker:

If you're not delegating lower priority things,

Speaker:

you won't be able to spend time on the highest priority things where you're

Speaker:

actually unstoppable and build momentum.

Speaker:

So give yourself permission to do what's really most important.

Speaker:

If you go make a list of every single thing that you do in a day, all day,

Speaker:

every day for weeks,

Speaker:

and take a look at what you're doing and then take a look at where it is in the

Speaker:

meaning list. How meaningful is it? How productive is it?

Speaker:

And really do an honest evaluation.

Speaker:

You realize that you could be majoring in minors and minoring in majors and not

Speaker:

doing what's really important and priority to you. If you do,

Speaker:

you're going to hold back momentum. Your velocity is going to be lower.

Speaker:

Whenever you're doing something that's high on your value, your energy goes up.

Speaker:

Whenever you're doing something low on your value, your energy goes down.

Speaker:

Your energy x the movement is what drives that momentum.

Speaker:

So if you go and raise your energy, you're going to speed up the process.

Speaker:

You're going to be more effective, more efficient,

Speaker:

you're going to be more prioritized, you're going to be more empowered.

Speaker:

It was Alec Mackenzie in his book on The Time Trap that show that people who are

Speaker:

living according to their highest values do more executive planning,

Speaker:

they live in their executive center, they're more governed,

Speaker:

they're less distracted by impulses and instincts that throw us off and

Speaker:

cause us all kind of inefficiencies.

Speaker:

But if we go and we prioritize our life and delegate lower priority things and

Speaker:

find people that would love to do the things that aren't really the things that

Speaker:

inspire us that we feel trapped doing, we automatically free up energy,

Speaker:

we automatically. When I was in practice many years ago, I was 27 years old,

Speaker:

I opened up a little practice at a 970 square foot little office.

Speaker:

I had one staff member and she was doing mainly administrative.

Speaker:

I was doing mainly clinical,

Speaker:

but I was doing a lot of stuff and I was kind of feeling frustrated and

Speaker:

burdened a bit by doing stuff that really wasn't what I was educated for and

Speaker:

wasn't really what I was inspired to do,

Speaker:

which was basically teaching and healing and being involved in that topic.

Speaker:

The second I hired somebody,

Speaker:

I read a book called The Time Trap by Alec Mackenzie and the second I followed

Speaker:

what it said, and I started to hire somebody to do lower priority things,

Speaker:

it gave me more time to do the higher priority things, I felt lighter,

Speaker:

I felt more professional. I found out my business went up, my income went up.

Speaker:

I found out that I had the ability to delegate and train the individuals and let

Speaker:

them take care of the stuff that I really wasn't inspired to do.

Speaker:

The weight went down, the burden went down,

Speaker:

the gravity of the situation went down and I levied it up. I lightened up,

Speaker:

my energy went up, my inspiration went up,

Speaker:

my desire to want to go to work went up, and I started having more patience,

Speaker:

more income, more, more outreach.

Speaker:

And I started delegating more and more and more and more.

Speaker:

And the more I delegated, the more I got onto motion,

Speaker:

the more I freed myself up and my income went up,

Speaker:

my business went up, my outreach went up and I became, here I am now,

Speaker:

41 years later, more, 41 and a half years later,

Speaker:

I'm still going and I've still got momentum and unstoppable.

Speaker:

It's because I prioritize and delegated,

Speaker:

and I got onto what was most meaningful and inspiring where I was intrinsically

Speaker:

called to act.

Speaker:

I encourage you to take the time to go on and do the Value Determination

Speaker:

process, or better yet,

Speaker:

come to the Breakthrough Experience where I actually help you go through that

Speaker:

and show you how to dissolve distractions that weigh you down,

Speaker:

show you how to release the things that you're feeling burdened having to do.

Speaker:

I always say either go do what you love through delegating or love what you do

Speaker:

through linking. If you say, well, I don't know how I'm going to delegate.

Speaker:

I got all this stuff at home, I don't know how I can delegate that. Well,

Speaker:

you could be delegating it to specialists if you have the ability to go out and

Speaker:

do something even more in inspiring,

Speaker:

the cost and the freedom and the health benefits will be there.

Speaker:

But if you go and delegate and hire people to do that,

Speaker:

you will end up freeing up more energy to produce more.

Speaker:

My income went up when I did that. My vitality went up when I did that,

Speaker:

my outreach went up when I did that, I wanted to make a difference,

Speaker:

my difference that I made went up because I did that.

Speaker:

That's why in the Breakthrough Experience,

Speaker:

I teach people how to dissolve emotional distractions,

Speaker:

all the phobias and fears that make you stop yourself taking command,

Speaker:

prioritizing and delegating, all the things that you give is excuses,

Speaker:

all the limiting ideas that you're subordinating to other people.

Speaker:

See the moment we compare ourselves to other people and put them on a pedestal,

Speaker:

we'll minimize ourselves. And the second we minimize ourselves,

Speaker:

our energy goes down, our confidence goes down, we don't take action,

Speaker:

we're afraid to delegate and we hold on to stuff that's burdened,

Speaker:

that slows down our momentum, you might say, our speed of action,

Speaker:

our velocity.

Speaker:

And we end up having more weighted you know,

Speaker:

resistance in our life.

Speaker:

And that's why I tell people to come to the Breakthrough Experience because if

Speaker:

they do the Breakthrough Experience and they go through and they actually open

Speaker:

up their heart to doing what they love and give themselves permission to shine,

Speaker:

not shrink, and to go out and radiate,

Speaker:

not gravitate and go on and do something more amazing with their life,

Speaker:

they become unstoppable. You know,

Speaker:

I had a lovely young girl that I met many years ago,

Speaker:

well maybe seven years ago or six years ago that was in Las Vegas,

Speaker:

that was a young girl that had a fashion design and it was amazing.

Speaker:

Her name was Hanalei Swan.

Speaker:

She did an amazing job and she did a presentation and

Speaker:

presentation. She was 11 years old at the time.

Speaker:

And because she found out what she wanted to do at a young age,

Speaker:

she got moving on it. She's an artistic, creative, ingenious young lady.

Speaker:

And she went out and did something amazing because she got on track.

Speaker:

She put her engine into motion, she became unstoppable.

Speaker:

I think her in, in her family's company is involved in unstoppable.

Speaker:

It's a classical example of what happens when people get inspired by what they

Speaker:

do. So I tell people, prioritize your life,

Speaker:

give yourself permission to be authentic.

Speaker:

Your authentic selfs and expression of what you value most.

Speaker:

Your energy will go up, you will gain momentum,

Speaker:

you will become unstoppable, you'll make more income.

Speaker:

You'll end up being more inspired by your life and grateful for your life.

Speaker:

You know,

Speaker:

the very executive center in the forebrain gets lit up and gets momentum and

Speaker:

blood and glucose and oxygen the second you live by highest priorities.

Speaker:

And that's the area that ends up giving you inspired vision, strategic planning,

Speaker:

executing plans, and self-governance. So if you want more self-mastery,

Speaker:

if you want more momentum, you want to have more energy and vitality,

Speaker:

you want to not procrastinate, hesitate and frustrate.

Speaker:

You want to have more life, if you will,

Speaker:

and you want to be like an engine going down the track that's unstoppable,

Speaker:

prioritize your life. And go online,

Speaker:

take advantage of the prioritization process, the Value Determination process,

Speaker:

come to the Breakthrough Experience where I can actually teach you how to

Speaker:

dissolve all the distractions to get you focused, so you're clear,

Speaker:

and to get you back on priority. If you do that, your life will change,

Speaker:

your trajectory will change and you become unstoppable.

Speaker:

When I ask millions of people around the world,

Speaker:

how many of you want to make a difference in the world?

Speaker:

They all put their hands up.

Speaker:

And then when I get and put them on confront and say, okay,

Speaker:

what exactly is that difference you're going to make?

Speaker:

Sometimes they're not clear.

Speaker:

I guarantee you the reason why they're not clear is because they're

Speaker:

subordinating to other people, comparing themselves to other people,

Speaker:

clouding the clarity of what their mission is, not living by highest priority,

Speaker:

trying to please all the other people for fear of being rejected,

Speaker:

and they're holding themselves back from doing something extraordinary by living

Speaker:

by priority,

Speaker:

and delegating and getting the people that you're worried about their opinions

Speaker:

to help work and work on your behalf,

Speaker:

by mastering the art of communicating what you're doing in terms of their

Speaker:

values, now you become unstoppable.

Speaker:

That's why I tell people again to go to the Breakthrough Experience.

Speaker:

I teach people how to do that.

Speaker:

How to live their life more inspired and more fulfilled and with more energy and

Speaker:

more vitality and doing something more in meaningful to their life.

Speaker:

If you're sitting there and you're not building momentum and you feel like

Speaker:

you're stagnant and you feel like you're holding yourself back and you're

Speaker:

comparing yourself to others,

Speaker:

instead of comparing your daily actions to your own highest values and dreams,

Speaker:

it's time,

Speaker:

to get on with your life and do something even more profound because it's time

Speaker:

to go out and do what's meaningful to you in your life by priority.

Speaker:

So this particular presentation that I wanted to share today was about

Speaker:

basically building momentum and becoming unstoppable. Remember the train,

Speaker:

remember prioritization. The engine of the train is your forebrain.

Speaker:

Your forebrain is the engine of your train. If you live by priority,

Speaker:

your forebrain comes alive. If you live by lower priority,

Speaker:

your hindbrain is running your life. And one is living by foresight.

Speaker:

One is living by hindsight. Hindsight can never compete with foresight.

Speaker:

Foresight plans, strategizes, executes, mitigates, risks,

Speaker:

sees vision, delegates things, gets on with it,

Speaker:

self governs the distractions of impulses and instincts of the amygdala,

Speaker:

which is the animal brain that makes you crazy,

Speaker:

and that's why I tell people to do the Breakthrough Experience.

Speaker:

I want to teach you how to live by the forebrain, not the hindbrain,

Speaker:

by the executive center, not the amygdala, by systems 2

Speaker:

thinking where you're actually doing things by reason, not impulse and emotion.

Speaker:

One weighs you down, one lightens you up.

Speaker:

If you want to be enlightened and get on with it,

Speaker:

let's start prioritizing your life and giving yourself permission to be

Speaker:

yourself. The magnificence of who you that you are, the real you,

Speaker:

the one that revolves around your highest value, your ontological being,

Speaker:

the essence of your existence, is when you live by your highest priority.

Speaker:

That's when the power is built and you become unstoppable.

Speaker:

So I look forward to seeing you go to the the website and do the Value

Speaker:

Determination and definitely come to the Breakthrough Experience because that's

Speaker:

where I can help you specifically break through whatever you see is in your way

Speaker:

and show you how to put it on the way so you can build an unstoppable momentum

Speaker:

that inspires you and other people and make a difference in your life.

Speaker:

So thank you for joining me today. Go on the website,

Speaker:

Speaker:

come to the Breakthrough Experience where I can spend 24 hours with you and blow

Speaker:

your mind and transform your life with 50 years worth of knowledge.

Speaker:

And let's get moving. Let's get on it.

Speaker:

Let's build a team together and let's go out and do something extraordinary with

Speaker:

our lives. If you think you can't do it, that's the reason to come.

Speaker:

If you think it's too costly, that's the reason to come,

Speaker:

because that's what's stopping you.

Speaker:

Your beliefs systems and your focus on the things that are distracting instead

Speaker:

of the actual mission that you want to accomplish.

Speaker:

Come and join me for the Breakthrough Experience so I can help you fulfill your

Speaker:

mission and let's go build momentum and become unstoppable.
