Questioning Our Culturescape And Outdated Beliefs Is The Key To An Extraordinary Life
The key to an extraordinary life lies in your ability to transcend the culturescape and question society’s bullshit rules.
This is a lesson that Vishen Lakhiani, author of The Code of the Extraordinary Mind, had to learn the hard way.
Growing up in Malaysia, he was expected to pursue a degree and become an engineer, a lawyer or a doctor – but it wasn’t the life for him.
It took walking away from the traditional route of success for him to realize that if you want an extraordinary life then you need to be willing to reject what society dictates as “normal”.
Don’t just follow along with outdated beliefs that dictate how you should live your life – look beyond them and find what works best for you.
The same holds true when questioning society’s “bullshit” rules – or B-rules as Lakhiani calls them.
Take the College Brule – conventional wisdom says getting a college degree is essential; however, massive student debts are holding many people back instead of helping them achieve success.
Steve Jobs is an example of someone who realized this and dropped out of college against social expectations only to revolutionize multiple industries afterwards.
So next time you’re thinking about following convention, remember that extraordinary minds don’t stick with the status quo – they rise above it by transcending culture and rejecting outdated beliefs that hold them back from achieving greatness.
Consciousness Engineering: Understanding And Updating Your Mind’s Hardware And Software For An Extraordinary Life
Consciousness engineering is a must for any extraordinary mind.
It involves understanding that personal growth depends upon investing the time and effort into updating your hardware and software; your model of reality and systems of living.
Extraordinary minds choose to focus their efforts on rewriting their models of reality in order to create a self-encouraging view of themselves.
The author, Vishen Lakhiani, experienced this first-hand – having had low self-esteem due to his appearance during his college years.
But after talking with the prettiest girl at a party, who told him he was one hot dude, he experienced an epiphany; it allowed him to upgrade his hardware by constructing an encouraging model of reality which helped improve his dating life drastically.
By practicing consciousness engineering, extraordinary minds are able to rewrite their models of reality and create self-encouraging perspectives that help them achieve their goals and increase confidence.
Thanks to this mindset, these individuals can live an extraordinary life!
Upgrade Your Systems For Living To Reach Extraordinary Levels Of Success
Extraordinary minds are able to not only upgrade their systems for living but also bend reality, in order to achieve the goals they set out for themselves.
This is achieved through a three-step approach of discovering, refreshing and measurment.
The first step is discovering – this can be done by reading books, talking to people, researching and exploring the world around you for inspiration.
Think of it like browsing through the App Store – it’s all about learning new things that help you reach your biggest goals in life.
The second step is refreshening – this means updating your systems every year so they remain up-to-date and relevant in today’s ever-changing world.
For example, one year author Vishen Lakhiani may partake in Christine Bullock’s Total Transformation program while the next he moves on to kettlebells-showing an adaptable spirit is key when trying to find success in your goal pursuits.
Finally comes measurement – this helps see if the updated system is actually effective or not and keep track of how successful it has been over time.
An easy way to measure success is simply by keeping track which notches one’s favorite belt notch corresponds with after testing out a system to live by.
By following these guidelines extraordinary minds can reach success both inside and outside their comfort zone!
As Lakhiani himself shows, incorporating fun into daily life illustrates a great way use his newly updated system of living as well as helping achieve a mindset that can successfully bend reality – allowing individuals to look forward towards their goals while still focusing on enjoying their current circumstances!
How To Achieve Long-Lasting Bliss Through The Practice Of Blissipline
Extraordinary minds are capable of achieving prolonged bliss; however, this takes a great deal of practice and discipline.
This is where blissipline comes into play.
By taking time to practice gratitude each day, you will create the ability to experience bliss for longer periods of time.
Gratitude can be achieved through Dan Sullivan’s reverse gap: looking back at what you have already achieved in the past and properly thanking yourself for it.
To take the next step, your extraordinary mind must craft a vision for the future that corresponds with your desires and happiness.
You have likely heard of goals and plans before, but they can become dangerous if they don’t lead to true joy.
Be sure that you’re focusing on today’s end goals – such as seeing your child succeed in special activities – rather than means goals like acquiring a college degree or safe job.
Then, find unique end goals like climbing Mount Kilimanjaro or writing an amazing book!
By consistently practicing blissipline, you will be able to reach levels of extraordinary happiness and craft visions of your own perfect future!
The Tenth Law Of An Extraordinary Life: Embrace Your Quest
The final steps to becoming extraordinary are to be unfuckwithable and to embrace your quest.
To be unfuckwithable means to realize that only you have what it takes to be happy and successful, and that nobody can stop you from achieving your goals.
It also entails setting self-fueled goals which are not dependent on others’ opinions or behaviors.
And by embracing your quest, you prioritize meaningful work that is in line with what drives you, and make the most of your life.
Richard Branson is a perfect example of an extraordinary person who found his calling and created a life he could fully embrace.
He realized that true balance comes from finding passion in yourself rather than seeking outside validation.
So take a page out of his book, as well as other extraordinary individuals’, by striving to reach this state of unfuckwithability and never giving up on your quest!
