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.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of why people don’t always see things like we do. And they discuss what is the effect on both of us and them. During this podcast John points out that sometimes the difference of opinion has no real impact. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. And everybody processes information differently. That’s why there is a difference of opinion. But sometimes there is more at stake. It’s more than that a difference of opinion. It’s right or wrong. The opinion that is right is always the one that is closest to the truth, or what we would define as reality. The truth is reality.

John talks about Elon Musk sending an email to all 2 million federal employees telling them to respond to see if there are real people behind the emails. As John and Kelly discussed it, they had different opinions. Processing the same information but differently. But it’s just a matter of opinion. Then John talked about the Ukraine more. Trump saying Ukraine started the war. A clear falsehood. Now we’ve moved from something that is just an opinion to something with real consequences. Over 1 million people have been killed in this war. Biggest war in Europe since World War II. Clearly Trump is wrong. Ukraine clearly did not start the war. So Trump is clearly wrong. And the decisions he’s making for the United States are to our detriment. Because he’s ignoring the truth. And that’s the point. When people have a different opinion, sometimes it’s just a matter of opinion.

But sometimes there is way more at stake. Key is to tune into what is the truth. The position that is closest to the truth, which is reality, is the opinion that is correct. John talks about teaching his think it be it methodology to his class at the University of Texas. Most of them are fully on board. Excited about what they’re learning. But if a few are resisting it, then they are doing it at their own peril. Because their own successes is on the line. And to deny something that clearly is proven to be true and based on science, is to their detriment. But it’s their choice.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly explain what the full secret of the legendary book Think and Grow Rich actually is. As you may know, this legendary book that has been read by 150 million people, says there’s a secret for success. But the author only reveals half the secret. John was blessed to figure out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it. It caused his income to go up by 25 times over the $200,000 – $300,000 a year he was making the prior 20 years. Also met his wife from doing this. The bottom line is this 12 minute day methodology gives a person immense control over their lives. Beyond what they’ve ever experienced before.

And here’s what the full secret is. What you envision in detail, with emotion, on a daily basis is what shows up in your life. What that means is you create immense clarity about your life. Exactly the person you want to be, exactly what you want to accomplish, and precisely how you’re going to achieve your clearly defined goals. Then you put that clarity on a template. So that it succinct enough to read it or listen to it in 12 minutes a day. Also allows for the science of the subconscious mind to be properly applied. But once that clarity is on the template, you feed it to yourself every day. After approximately 21 days, the science kicks in and the magic happens. And what you’re feeding yourself starts to show up automatically without thinking in your thoughts and actions.

Once you begin doing this, three things happen. First, you feel immense CONTROL over your life. Of course you would, you’re feeding the succinct articulation of your life yourself each day. The second thing you feel is confidence. Which is a direct result of the control you feel. And the third thing you experience is the right actions and thoughts start happening automatically without thinking. In this podcast John goes on to say that a person’s way of doing life comes down to their morning routine. Everybody has a morning routine. But only 2% of people have a morning routine that impacts their mindset. And that’s significant because your success in life as well as your enjoyment in life comes down to the thoughts that are going on in your head on an ongoing basis.

So if you want to have a productive and happy life, you have to influence your mindset every morning in your morning routine. Otherwise you are innately wired for survival. Which causes you to live your life being fear-based and reactive. As John and Kelly dig deeper into this they talk about how feeding the succinct articulation of your life yourself each day profoundly impacts your identity. Who you are. It also impacts the filter for the brain. Your reticular activating system. It gives the filter for your brain immense clarity to bring into your life the things that you want. Essentially the law of attraction.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of being highly organized. Because the mind thrives on order. The subject came up because John is now teaching his simple organizational system to his class at the University of Texas. Where you plan your day the night before, where you time block your day, and you identify your top three priorities each day. In John’s new book, he provides this to do system to purchasers of the book. John says that the starting point for being highly successful is being highly organized. Like a nine or 10 on a scale of 1 to 10.

John talks about how his system is pen and paper, rather than digital. John makes the point that you do not want a to do system that is digital. Because it promotes shallow thinking. With social media today, we live in a flip through culture. And by the nature of that, it causes us to be shallow thinking. John gives a great example of that. Where person can know that 95% of their daily thoughts and actions are unconscious but they’re not thinking deep enough to understand the profound ramifications of that. It’s because we live in a shallow thinking culture. And when your daily to do’s are tied to your computer in the form of being a digital system, it promotes shallow thinking.

To wrap up this episode John talks about the power of using chat GPT to refine emails. Or to even go deep on a particular subject. At the end of this podcast he explains how chat GPT took his understanding of the above-noted fact that 95% of your daily thoughts and actions are unconscious and saw how chat GPT went deeper into the ramifications than John had.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of how your intelligence changes as you get older. As some of you know, John is really into his health. And in addition to his regular doctor, he has a relationship with a health organization called humanaugt health. Where he pays $350 a month and gets his blood tested four times a year. Meets with his doctor once quarter. And the doctor prescribes different peptides or supplements as appropriate. As part of this, John took a mental dexterity test. It involved connecting a hodgepodge of letters and numbers on the screen. And the test was to see how quick he can do it.

John realized that while this is more mental dexterity than intelligence, mental dexterity really isn’t all that valuable unless you’re a professional gamer or a fighter pilot. John notes that his intelligence, or what is left of it, has evolved to him being really good at seeing the solutions to problems and getting at the essence of what creates success. Kelly then talks about emotional intelligence. And John and Kelly get into how most people are not very self aware. They embrace being victims but don’t even realize it. They focus on only talking about themselves and not realizing it. John mentioned that now that he goes on lots of podcasts to support his book, he often asked people a question at the start of the podcast. How do they create success? Most people don’t really have a way of creating success. Accordingly, there just winging life and re-creating their past.

In this podcast John explains how he creates success. Here’s what he says. My daily actions determine my success in each area of my life. 95% my daily actions are unconscious, are on autopilot. Accordingly, I take control those unconscious daily actions. By feeding the succinct articulation of my desired life to myself each day in my morning routine. Then right actions happen automatically, and I have a powerful force pulling me forward to my desired life.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of creating a nest egg so you can retire. In discussing this, Kelly notes that she was a saver from a young age. Literally putting aside 20% a year. She was taught this by her dad who made her read the classic book Richest Man in Babylon. It truly is a fabulous book that really explains the concept of saving and compounding interest. John points out that he wasn’t that enlightened when he was younger. He didn’t really save in his 30s and 40s because he thought he would hit it big at some point in his entrepreneurial career. Fortunately he did. But it wasn’t a good strategy not to be embracing savings from a young age.

John talks about how when he sold his company he got a large amount of money. And his idea was he just had to get about 5% return on the money in order to pay all his living expenses. But he discovered something he wish he had been alerted to at a younger age. Investment planners and money managers always tell people to diversify as opposed to investing their money in the S&P 500. With the idea of avoiding that 30% drop in the market that happens about every 10 years. But John found that not to be good strategy. Inevitably, that strategy of diversification would maybe cost John 10% a year of less returns than he would’ve gotten if he had invested in the S&P 500.

So John is now at the point of embracing the idea of just putting his money in the S&P 500 and not doing anything else. This is actually the strategy of Warren Buffett. He says that by investing in the S&P 500, you’re investing in the United States. Which is the most powerful and innovative country in the world. And in the long run, that works out. Then John goes on to talk about the concept of never loaning money to anyone. Make that your golden rule. Kelly says she never learns money with the expectation of getting it back. And the last tidbit John talks about is never doing private investments or limited partnerships. Only invest in the S&P 500 and publicly traded stocks.

The last thing John and Kelly talk about is clarity. Most people have about 40% clarity in their life. Watch what happens when you get it up to 100% clarity and you feed that clarity to yourself each day. Game changing.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept that lots of people feel. I thought I’d be further along by now. Both Kelly and John have experienced this. Kelly experienced it when she was about 35 and finally making the leap to entrepreneurship. She always envisioned that she would be an entrepreneur from a very young age. But at 35 she’d never made the leap. John experienced this when he was both 40 and 50.

One of the things to do to overcome this is you must establish a personal mission statement. Something that really drives your life. And it’s got to be emotional. And it’s got to be something beyond yourself the drives your life. That’s really the starting point for accelerating your success in life. John talks about then discovering a success formula. And giving up hope by the time he turned 50. Ironically, he discovered the success formula in the most logical place at 50. The top book in the world on success. But it wasn’t on the surface. It was buried deep inside Think and Grow Rich. And that’s the essence of this podcast.

The reason lots of people feel like they should be further along with their life is because they’re just winging life. They don’t have an actual way of doing life. And the effect is they keep on re-creating the past. During this podcast John and Kelly talk about the power of not only having a success formula, such as our 12 minute a day methodology, but also being self-aware. John and Kelly talk about their journey of becoming more enlightened.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of mindset. A concept we hear a lot about today. But what is mindset. John and Kelly discuss this at length. And John has a very simple explanation of mindset. It’s controlling your thoughts. And here’s the significance of controlling your thoughts. Your daily actions determine your success in life. Every action must first be preceded by I thought. Accordingly, when you control your thoughts, you control your actions.

Then John points out the most significant thing he ever learned in his life. That 95% your daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. Accordingly, if they are unconscious then your subconscious mind therefore controls your life. And to gain control of your thoughts and actions, again 95% of which are unconscious, you must proactively manipulate the subconscious mind. So logical it hurts.

During this podcast John Kelly discuss the bifurcation of society. Only 2% of people today have control over themselves and 98% of people do not. We have all sorts of technological advances going on in society, but people’s ability to control themselves is decreasing. And John points out that the differentiator between the mega successful and the moderately successful is control of self and focus. Control of self is your daily actions. Focus is your thoughts. Mindset is all about controlling your thoughts. And that’s what our 12 minute day methodology is all about. Impacting the creation of your thoughts. So the right actions happen automatically without thinking.
