Getting More Enlightened: It Doesn’t Really Happen Until You’re 50

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept that you don’t really get more enlightened until you become 50. John says that there is something magical about turning 50. Before you turn 50, your attitude is generally what don’t I know? I pretty much know everything. But when you turned 50, you understand life at a deeper and deeper level. And you also decide to do life on your terms rather than everybody else’s terms. John talks about the things he learned in his 50s that he didn’t know when he was in his 30s and 40s. As an example. How to work smarter not harder. By understanding how the human mind works. No clue about this in his 30s or 40s. He also didn’t understand how to play into one’s own strengths and understanding in detail one’s own strengths. That became apparent in his 50s.

John also learned the power of growing intellectually every week with a system that made that personal growth strategic. He wasn’t doing that in his 30s and 40s. Also he learned how to deep think two times a week his 50s. Clueless about that in his 30s and 40s. Then when John got into his 60s he started appreciate how people are different than he was. And that it’s okay. People are the product of their genetics coupled with what has come into their consciousness to this point in their life. John also learn the power of having a powerful and emotional mission statement.

During this discussion Kelly and John also discuss the limiting factor in one’s success regarding having false beliefs. John and Kelly both believed erroneously that they controlled their daily actions. Then they got enlightened to the fact that 95% of a person’s daily actions are unconscious. And that was significant because they understood that one’s success in life comes down to their daily actions. Once they got that, everything changed. Then in the podcast, John and Kelly talk about the immense power of improving one’s self-image. By digging deep into it.

About the Hosts:

John Mitchell

John’s story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn’t as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there’s a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.

When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.

His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.

John’s technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.
