I believe there are seven things that our education system completely fails to teach

But if we can learn these seven qualities,

our life as human beings radically transforms.

And not only do our life transform but the lives of everyone around us go through

a remarkable beautiful transformation as well.

The first one is teaching people how to bend reality.

What I mean by this is I have become 100% convinced that the world is an illusion

and that our minds can shift  that illusion,

that we can generate synchronicities, coincidences, good luck, if you will,

Number one, the myth of lack, that there isn't enough for everyone.

And the second thing is the myth of hard work, struggle, strive.

The soul was not born and did not choose the human experience

to go through struggle, hard work and toil.

When you learn the art of bending reality, even if you have a job that is

super important, you're working on incredible projects,

Now, the second skill that schools need to teach us but do not

You learn that knowledge does not just come from your brain and what you read and

the people you have access to, it can come from within.

This is that special skill that geniuses like Steve Jobs tapped into to create

things that nobody else in the world could see.

Intuition becomes a guiding voice to allow us to make better decisions in life,

not just what to invent, what to create, but who to date, who to move towards,

Intuition is something so important, it's in all of us.

Now, the third skill is related to the first two, and it is the idea of living

from purpose, being connected to your intuition, so you know why you're here,

and then being able to bend reality to move towards that purpose

whether it is to create a great work of art or write a book or be the mom or dad

It's being so aligned with your purpose that you're unshakeable on that purpose.

And it's one of the most attractive qualities of any man or woman,

But again, schools don't teach that to you.

Rather, we become pieces of paper in a giant, human photocopy machine,

photocopying the preset lives of generations past and other people.

Instead, you want to turn your life into a masterpiece.

This brings us to the fourth idea, stepping beyond the culturescape.

In my writing, I coined the word called brules for bullshit rules.

I suggest that much of the world around us is made up by people no smarter than us.

And these ideas, often long outdated, are injected in our brain from the time

we are kids by our governments, by religion, by our preachers, our fathers,

The world is changing at a rapid pace and we can question the rules of the world.

We can discard the bullshit rules or brules and create whole new ways

In transformational theory, we call this operating from a sense

of autonomy and operating from a sense of authenticity.

If the third ingredient that I spoke about is turning your life into a masterpiece,

that is being authentic to you, living your life on your terms.

Autonomy means that you no longer seek to fit in.

You no longer suppress who you are or what you do or what you believe to fit in.

You're willing to stand for what you feel that intuitive calling within is.

And this is where it kind of gets puzzling because autonomy is important.

You want to be separate from the rules of the world, but you also want to feel unity

When you feel unity, what mystics often call the

Samadhi experience, this feeling of oneness that you get when you meditate,

when you feel that, what happens is that you can only move and make decisions

Unity consciousness is so important in the world today, but so many folks,

Whenever you hear that, know that that is a backward

We are individuals but we, as human beings, exist almost

And we got to think multiple generations ahead in terms of the work we do,

and ask ourselves, "Are we making the world better off?

Are we operating from unity consciousness?"

This brings us to ability number six, and this the ability to access altered

states of consciousness, to get into deep states of what people

call mojo or flow, where you just move through the world in maximum creativity.

But often, it has to do with being able to access these altered states of mind.

And finally, the seventh skill, which I think is so important,

is how to always ensure that in all your relationships, it's win-win.

When we talk about conscious parenting, when we talk about conscious uncoupling,

it is so important that everything is win-win,

There is no one out there that you need to hate or that you need to carry

anger towards, or that you still need to forgive.
