I asked myself some important questions, and It made me realize that I partly treated a caterer unfairly. I’m a high-ranking chef at a university and I was told by a student employee that her coworker (let’s call him Terry) had been touching crew members too much. Not _that_ type of touch, just casual ones, like on arms or shoulders. He was always very outgoing and tactile at work. Still, I took him to my colleague’s office for a chat and told him he shouldn't touch anyone without consent. Just handshakes. I said we needed the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, that he pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school. How he shouldn't tell his stories because they may be inappropriate to some degree to the other workers; funny to him only. I think he’s about 25, give or take. He seemed pretty quiet and uncomfortable during my speech. Answered a question or two with a nod and headshake. The only question he had for me was if anyone reported his touching; I said, "It doesn't matter." Maybe that was a bit rude. That day after work, I saw him being pulled out of the lake--with his eyes closed. I was so horrified. I could only hope he was unconscious. Some woman, who was being held in place by two strong people, was excitedly yelling, "Is he dead?! Is he dead?!" Turns out _she_ pushed him in the lake. Now, I _really_ don't want to go into detail, so I'm just gonna say she injured him in specific ways so that he couldn't swim back to the surface. According to the news, she tried to drown him because she hated his personality and unfiltered jokes and thought people's lives would be better without him. She even told him that before she pushed him in the water, so that he knew he was getting what he "deserved." Thankfully he was given CPR and taken to the hospital for treatment; he's gonna be okay. And that's just it. What if he hadn't? What if my last moment with him was in the office. I realized I may have gone a little too far too. Yeah, I was right about how he should be more filtered at work, and that the touching needed to be restricted for his coworkers’ comfort (and for him to be successful), but I should _not_ have spoken to him the way I did. I should _not_ have said to his boss (who was in the room with us too), “is there anything you want to add?” That was insensitive. I should _not_ have restricted him to handshakes and work/school conversations only. All or nothing isn't fair. I should _not_ have taken him to the office for a formal lecture. He didn't deserve that. He probably felt like a criminal in an interrogation room. Terry never meant any discomfort or harm. He only meant to joke around and have fun with his coworkers, not "make" them his "objects". I should’ve shown more patience and understanding and only given him a very brief and gentle talk in the hall---just me. Besides, it's perfectly natural to causally touch or tap people *without* it being creepy; maybe Terry deserved a right like that, within reason and limits so he didn't go over them and discomfort anyone. He is not like Dan Schneider...but I guess I treated him like the guy. When he recovers, I'm gonna tell him I'm sorry for being a bit too tough on him. That I mishandled the situation and could've done better. I was a jerk.
I did this exercise last year in 2015, and I recently reviewed my responses and I accomplished so many of the things I wrote down that I thought I would never be able to do! Here I am in 2016, writing down new goals and experiences for myself. Thank you Vishen!!
At 69 this was a great exercise! Not only enjoyed it but had some interesting things "show up." One of the motto's I live by is: "The Best Is Yet To Come." Your questions helped to confirm that! Thank you!
+Merry Alexander Merry, my maiden name was Mary Alexander! Now I am Mary Smith but my teacher calls me Merry! I too am in my 60s and loved this exercise. Fun to "introduce" myself to you!
i have the vision of standing between the tables serving food at my own place, hearing jokes jumping from one table to another one and the big fat laughters following. the place where people feel accepted, loved, respected and where they feel themselves beautiful. i am struggling with my own shyness sometimes, not being able to push hard enough to achieve a goal, kind of mostly waiting for the things to happen themselves. just recently i understood that the table i am sitting at - someone really made it. thank you for the motivation. also i had a vision once that never leaves: i saw some kind of epic movement of people from one side of the valley to another one, some kind of big shift happening with humanity. i was just standing on the top of the hill with my daughter on my shoulders and watching it with euphoric calmness.
Contribution: to see happiness in people, to teach as a mechanical engineer, passing messages through paintings such as protectin nature/sharing feelings..etc and helping my parents, family and freinds. some of my thoughts i wanted to share and thanks again to vishen. now i know what i need to do
@@d.i.a.5392 You mean compared to the time limit he sets? I just stopped it and added more if there were more... but I really didn't need much time... I figure if I wanted to do more down the road I will add it... etc...
@@MikeKollin I wanted to know if you were able to achieve all your goals using this. I found this video through another website. I will try a cumulative approach. I hope it will work for me.
Every 12 years or so I get into this "I need to search my purpose in life" mode and it's happening now. This video came in at the right time. I strongly advice to follow Vishal's cue on the video and do the exercise. Surprisingly most of the things I wrote were stuff I already know but these were jumbled up in my mind. Now it's well organised. Time to work on them. Thank you again.. May need to revisit this in 12 years time. :-)
I want to experience connecting with people all over the world communicating messages of LOVE, Power & Hope thru singing, speaking, writing, acting and service. I want to grow thru becoming fluent in Spanish, French & Italian and creating interaction to people thru these languages. I want to contribute to the world by overhauling what we call education, especially as it relates to the underprivileged, "at-risk" and others who do not have opportunities because of high aptitudes, excellent grades and other accepted models of scholastic achievement.
Thank you. I'm about to retire from teaching. Going to live as an artist...write, illustrate, paint and record music. You've enabled me make my approach more positive. Thank you!
What a great exercise, even if it's played as a parlor game among friends and family. The timer puts everything in perspective -- if it didn't make my list in the allotted time, it did not rank very high in value. Nowhere did my answers mention anything about financial rewards; I believe those come with positive affirmation, energetic action, a drive to contribute to others through my own success. For example, many of my answers yielded clues that I deeply desire return to Peru to find the humble, welcoming, wonderful silver-working family who brought my designs to life when I lived and worked there for three years. It's been 10 years since then, and I'm ready to dive energetically back into creative pursuits that helped others besides myself -- ready to start my business up again, only this time for real. Thank you for helping me reveal to myself what's important: my own growth, success, fulfillment and happiness -- if it's also tied to others' growth, success, fulfillment and happiness.

Thank you Vishen and Mindvalley, this is an awesome tool. Feel vibrant, healthy and achieve a level of wellbeing that allows me to live the active lifestyle I desire; hike, ski, paddleboard, surf, teach yoga. Reach a state of freedom where I can travel, work from anywhere and experience the world without constraints. Grow confidence in my professional and personal life.

I wish to help my family in Ecuador have the life they so deserve.
I absolutely loved this video. The "Three Questions" made me realize that I need to make changes in the way I live now so that I can truly be honest to my "SELF.". I have the real desire to contribute to the planet by helping people realize that the way we treat the animals who share this planet with us needs to be "re-evaluated." I want to lead by example, so I have to look at the way I live and make the changes in my lifestyle so that I will truly "walk the walk" and not just "talk the talk." My "calling" is animal advocacy and I want to be a part of improving the planet by improving the way animals are perceived by our culture. When I answered the "Three Questions" what I need to do was apparent. I need to stop being a hypocrite and start eating "right" and in doing so I will finally find the peace and joy that have eluded me because of my "eating habits" and get healthy in the process. Thank you, Vishen and Mindvalley for all that you do to help us truly "actualize" ourselves.
i never thought that there will be that much of ideas flowing. it really helped me... Experience: feel free, a simple and beautiful house, true love not just pretending to love, success..etc Growth: to learn more and become and engineer, confident in everything i do, am an artist too and someday i want to become as the great Leonardo Da Vinci, dealing with any difficult situation, to have a healthy life....
Thanks for the video~ 1. Focus in inner hapiness, not to be limited by fear, have meaningful realtionship with family, love one, friends, spend quality time in gathering. 2. Self management, discipline, planning forward, upgrade own skills and learn new ones, learn new languages, meditate, yoga, aim for full split, participate in triathlon 3. Have a trip with family, love one and friends at least once a year, be volunteer, write & draw to share my experiences to the world, smile
1. I want to experience total freedom and allow life to lead me in any direction, domestically, internationally, and interplanetary. The ultimate is to experience life outside of earth. 2. I want to grow as a deep thinker and motivator internationally, speak another language, and improved health and fitness. 3. I want to contribute to the elevation of my cultures communities by starting initiatives to improve self love and relationships, speak to mindset shifting, and create generational wealth within my family. Excellent video. Thanks Vishen! #MindValleyIsLifeAltering
I received an email from MindValley asking me to answer one question about a program I bought (before my life turned upside down yesterday). I followed the link, answered the question and somehow ended up here. I answered the 3 questions Vishen asks in the video and I know what to do now. This video has given me insight and direction. Thank so very much!!
I have a clear vision now, it was so fuzzy before. Today I know what my goals are and how to reach them through the means goals. Photography. I wanted to heal folk for years and I did so for many years as a 911 paramedic, I was awesome at it but it wouldn't give me my end goals. It was a means goal. Photography is part of my end goal, a great photograph can calm, soothe, uplift, change feelings make folk happy - that's what I need to focus on. and I will. THANK YOU sooooo much.
I could not disagree with you more if you feel you are too old. I am 53 years old and I have been frustrated with my life for most of my adult life. I have had several books, both fiction and non-fiction, published, helmed successful companies, but only recently did I realize I was stuck in the "means" goals mode. I am more interested now, and more focused, than ever on the end goals. This was an excellent exercise, albeit brief. But if it gets your mind thinking, then embrace it.
Steve welcome to the life of living. I have heard of Louise Hay. She is an amazing person of wealth. I am going to be there and not too long from now either.
Thank you a lot Vishen, you truly make my day! You are a big man/mind, I just hope some day to tell you: hey Vishen you know, what I wish/want a long time ago it's happening right now, and I really have evverything I want! I hope to come faster that day.
Love this video Vishen. The process is refreshing. You know, 90 seconds isn't that long to fit an entire future into. Even though I'm getting up there in age. There are just so many more things to Experience, plant for Growth, and Contribute in gratitude. I'll be writing a best selling book and screenplay. Starting a new business to provide growth for others (like Mindvalley). Invent a fast-as-light propulsion system, matter - antimatter energy source, and epigenetic mental illness interventions. I'll continue my travels and exploration around the world and U.S. in my private jet and helicopter. I already have the licenses. 50 pound curls will be like lifting donuts and mental calmness will occur spontaneously due to long standing meditation practice. Buy a new car once a year. I'll immediately calm individuals and groups that are agitated with hypnotic skill. Teaching through public speaking engagements will occur with extemporaneous spontaneity while capturing my audiences and improving their lives. Financial, physical, and supportive gifts to family, friends, causes, communities around my many homes will be well received and executed in positive benefits. All this, all this, is just a start with the 90 seconds that you provided and there is much more if I could write faster. Oh. That's right. And while all this is going on I'll retain my well known humility. Thanks!
This has got to be one of the most enlightening videos I have come across. I'm excited that this comes at the end of 2014. It gives me new insights as I plan for the year to come. Thank you Vishen Lakhian & Mind Valley!
when we give, it truly does come back to us - one thousand fold ... focus on all that you have, even if it's a little ... you'll be surprised how this will make a change in your consciousness ... beautiful!
My first encounter to Vishen Lakhiani was through Tedx Video on meditation hack. Each day I feel grateful for the change I've had in my life because of MindValley. Thank You!
Vishen, and his organization MindValley are by far my favorite company to deal with. When you purchase something from them, you have no worries that the program/product will be of poor quality, or without character. I am completely hooked on them!
This is GREAT Vishen. Love it, did it and will pass it on. I'm also going to start incorporating it with family, friends, colleagues and clients! Wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! This process is one that I will adapt in my life. Going for the End Goal is what really elevates you. I just went through this simple exercise and was blown away by what I wrote on a piece of paper. My passion and dreams just spilled out and literally came to life in front my eyes as I read my thoughts aloud. Thanks for exposing me to this Mind Valley.
Dear Vishen, it's an absolute pleasure to come across this video and actually know about you and mindvalley! What a wonderful exercise you have suggested here. It's really of great benefit to each one of us. Indeed, the truth is "life is all about inspiring and getting inspired". :) I seriously feel that parents and teachers should make a constant endeavour of letting the young ones learn about these aspects much early in life, the consequence of which would be a brilliantly positive and strong society.
I love thinking about life this way. It shifted my perspective and helped undo the glue that seems to paralyze me from moving forward when I feel like I want to do so many things. It organized my thoughts and actually brought many of my goals or wishes together in a sensible way, showing me how to start. I will share this with all my 8th graders and my own children too.
As a professional fitness trainer and coach I have recently enrolled in your online Mindvalley workshop 3/12/14 6pm pst and very excited and compelled to learn and grow in new ways! Thank you for your deep candor and honesty amid so many "coaches" out there. Best regards!
As I reflected on my retirement in 7 years, i came across this exercise through Mindvalley; what a game changer, I love it, so so helpful in so many ways. Helping me focus, to feel purpose in my older years, a sense of optimism. Thankyou Vishen.
Thank you so much for helping through this. At the beginning I thought I would write nothing, but with your guidance, I wrote my heart out. Truly admire all of your work sir. You're an incredible human being
I watched this video ten years ago and I have achieved so many of those goals. Then randomly four years...one day i found that page that I had wrote all my goals and I was amazed at how much I had accomplished. Today I watched the video again and did the simple task of writing my goals down again. Can't wait to achieve them.
Always find a way to give. This is one of my personal aphorisms and the daily mantra playing in my head as I went from losing everything to making more than twice my income than before. I would wake each morning with one question. Who can I help today. This one powerful question lead me to opportunities every day without fail. All three of these questions mentioned in this video are truly powerful. But as I tell people who have had serious misfortune during this unprecedented time in history, and have lost work, it is not about what you get it is about what you give. 3. In what ways can you contribute to others and the world as a whole? Very powerful!
THIS needs to be re-visited often in our lives..Children and teens should be introduced to it early. Putting my Vision Board in front of me each day. The to-do list can then follow and not overwhelm what truly matters in the long run.

I have just started the creative visualization program Mind Valley offers, and I have to say that so far, it's just simply amazing. The meditation exercises are truly very easy to do, especially the 3 2 1 method. Laura Silva is one of the best meditation guides that I've ever had. She explains every exorcise in such great detail that not possible to become confused and misunderstand. Their motto is if you can visualize it you can have it, and this's really the truth. I would recommend Mind Valley to anyone.
So happy and grateful to have found you, Vishen. I never thought of looking at things in this way. This is very helpful. You've shifted my perceptions. I feel different already just by listening to you and doing this exercise. It's my very first draft. I am asking my heart to answer these questions for me. You are the TRANSFORMER the world needs today. Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Blessings to you. Thank You, Namaste!
Thank you so much for this "3 Most important questions exercise". It truly forced me to unblock the standard "make money" to get to the heart of what will fulfill my soul.
Thank You so very much! I am 26 and I am a person who trust my own instincts and avoid getting influenced by the standards laid down by the society. I can so connect with whatever you have mentioned here. It has been a complete emotional roller coaster ride for me. I was so sure about two things in life...that i wanted to do something i love and i wanted to be true to myself to the fullest....i was always guided n instinctively knew abt all 3 questions. Your video brot me clarity. M grateful !
I thought this might be hard to do, I can be so indecisive. Instead, it was really easy and fun! It is great to have a list to remember and draw from as top desires. Thank You!
All my life this has been my belief system..I always thought outside the box in a very conservative family..I admire your "breaking free" & forming a company that will prove that this is the future...and our societies..will benefit from your daring to be different. .I listen to you as much as I can because im inspired!! .
Thanks for the post of the video, it was fun to relearn my desires. I have been taught that the means is the way to the goal. In doing I forgot the goal and have trained myself that those things are now out of my reach. I must retrain my mind to look at the desires and not so much on the means. All I have been doing in my life is staying busy, dogs do this when they chase their tails. Fun to watch for a moment but soon not so.
I just follow to pour my thoughts in 90 seconds and it helps me a lot to see what I want to do at the end of the day much clearer than goals I used to set. Thanks for your presentation a lot...
Thank you Vishen for all that you do. Experience: attend Academy Awards as a nominee for Best Original Screenplay Growth: attend meditation retreat Contribution: write a novel/book that changes people's lives for the better
Very, very powerful perspective, Vishen. This is how I've been feeling lately, and I couldn't finds the words to express those feelings in complete thoughts; because of that, I am feeling "stuck" and I couldn't figure out how to move forward. I am very thankful for your sharing this life-changing presentation. I am finally "unstuck" and set in motion in a new journey.
This is a really good video and exercise. I on the other hand, I am living my life the way I want. About 5 years ago it all changed for me. I was a person that was trapped in the hum-drum of society and life. I had moved to a place where I soon found myself and started learning about myself. I had moved to the biggest County of Texas. Anyway, I had moved back to society about a year ago. I was and still do what I listed on my 3 answers. I travel and am still in tuned with my goals of life.
Thank you for that amazing exercise. I'm an artist and I currently teach Intuitive, Mandala and instruction to women/men and corporations. You reminded me to create ART for Awareness. ART to bring people together, to learn compassion. Art for the Bigger Picture. I always encourage my students to "tell a story, be it theirs or an emotion they would like to portray" For me, my purpose has always been about talking with my paintings/drawings. Best to you and keep up the amazing work. Our young minds are our future.
I am in awe of all the wonderful things you are prompting me to be aware of to transform my life. I am planning on leaving at least 30 to 40 more years, and I was wondering how! Now that I found you, Vishen, I know that my next 40 years are going to be extraordinary awesome!! I'm just 76.

So inspiring. To be allowed to dream, to even be encouraged to dream, instead of just be 'Practical' and get a job to just pay the bills. So freeing. Thank you Vishen.
Nice! I benefitted greatly, thanks! I've thought about these questions many times, but had too much time to ponder. With the time pressure, I just put it down and stopped analyzing.
You are just great, Vishen. I love your business model and who you are personally in the world. This video is a fantastic tool for people to realize what is important to them. Thanks for sharing this.
I am VP Talent Management in AIESEC and I loved it soo much that I am going to empower all my team leaders to follow this guidline while developing members. And that wall... It is amazing.
Wow! Thank you for this. I have just written a book entitled, Human-to-Human Selling and you have captured very articulately how I see the world of sales changing. In the Industrial Age we were taught to sell to pain. Pain is short-term and the process is manipulative. What if we could sell to the higher, nobler purposes of our customers? What if we see ourselves as enabling agents in the lives of others as they pursue their heart-felt purposes. This simple exercise sets us on the right path!

What Experiences i want to have • love • connnection with god • a perfect health How do you want to grow • By reading spiritual text of BK • learn more about religion • learn more about positive psychology • Reach an enlightened state of mind where my positivity • Perfect health • Running a cyclathon How would i like to Contribute to the society • Help all souls to grow spiritually • Be a more useful citizen and more useful child of god • spread positivity everywhere i go

Contribute: Helping the less fortunate people around me, visiting the sick and old age homes, orphanages, doing the things I enjoy doing irrespective of how small the job is thereby living life to the fullest. Thanks for the lovely video.
Experiences, Growth and Contributions...how enlightening, simple and mind expanding. Without limitations of money and time the ideas are endless! Thanks for opening up my ability to dream again!! Sincere thanks!
Thanks Vishen for the inspiration. I, too, believe that when we allow the creative, right-brain to express, we come a step closer to fulfilling our dreams and stepping more into our authentic selves. Amongst the experiences I want to have in life are to work at MV as I see and understand what it's all about! So, I've applied! I believe that DREAMS DO COME TRUE, but it takes awareness, discipline and purpose for it to happen. I'll gladly spread the love, reposting this video. Muchas gracias, again! See you soon.
honestly, i want to do what u do, i always wanted to build a huge biz around helping ppl to acheive their true desires and dreams. I want to travel the world ad speak at conventions and talk to ppl face to face...I think what happened is that I wanted to seek security and financial freedeom before chasng my dreams, actually i don't even know my dreams until a year ago....thx so much for helping me to truly understand my dreams!!!!
Thank you Vishen for this amazing video. I just recently started watching Mind Valley. My Experience, Growth and contribution are Living a life of abundance and clarity with a loving partner who loves me for who I am and loves himself first. My contribution to this planet is continuing to love and share my positive energy to everything in this universe and being a vegetarian. This exercise gave me better clarity to what me life will be. Thank you for reading everyone.
Thank you for being You. This journey has been nothing short of Amazing and I believe that I can and will be a catalyst for the advancement of the community that I serve. The Universe has intervened and the expectations are Limitless. I look forward to seeing meeting and hearing from that which I have come to know as my Soul Tribe. Continued Health Wealth and Enlightenment to Us All. Together We will change the scope and landscape of what We know is True. One Love
Within this video I was able to open and unlock my reason for Be-ing. I am grateful. Open up and unlock what's already been there from day one. Thank you mindvalley!
I find it refreshing to reset myself, as in a state of rediscovering what is deep inside me and was hidden somewhere as life went by. I feel I become a child again and think that everything is possible just by writing down what I want. It is a truly good thing to do. This excercice should be taught from the childhood. I see it is a good way for example when someone becomes a highschooler to go back at what he or she wrote at age 5 then when becomes a university student go back to what was written in highschool. We lack self-awareness in the way we are educated in my home country at least. So, I see it is always great to keep track of intrinsic and spontaneaous motives because they reveal what will make us happy in the end.
Experiences: Deep connection to the whole of humanity Living an empowered, exemplary life Vibrant Health in my body, mind and spirit True Love/Intimate Partnership Myself as a powerful creator Total Freedom Growth: Confidence Certainty - even when things look uncertain Art of clear and powerful communication - public speaking, teaching, writing Wealth Creation and management Contribution: Mass communicate/be a voice for possibility and what's next!! Ambassador for Peace starting w/me!
Love this video! My Contribution Dream - help bring more equality to the world through awareness and love resulting in reductions of war, poverty and hate. Increase love in the world through stories that inspire compassion and connection. Break down barriers and bring more unity.
That was some divine timing at work, my friend JUST sent this to me on the day after I decided to start life coaching (which was induced by me having anxiety about turning 40 next year and feeling stuck).
This Vishen Lakhiani is extraordinary What made him so great so early, is not simply his ambition or his thirst of power knowledge or success, it's his inextinguishable love of the others and his need to share with as many people as possible his talents, his growth and whatever God has blessed him with. He was born for America. Because, only in America, it is allowed to be as great as you can. And what makes him so loveable is his blind confidence in the others, his vulnerability and naivety which made it easy so often (for certain jealous persons) to cheat him and steal him. He was cheated many times but didn't become bitter or stopped trusting and loving people. He will never stop growing because of this very special humility and his unselfish and boundless love Can you hear his message "whoever I am, anyone can be, whatever I have, anyone can have" The more blessed he is the more he wants to share with others all his blessings. His main passion is CONTRIBUTING. The power of love, is the power of contributing. He thinks he has an extraordinary mind......But all I can see in him is AN EXTRAORDINARY HEART
Thank you. The meditation made me realise how much I wish to grow and develop myself and my business with meditation at the core and make sure the experiences of rest, travel and being there (emotional, physically and financially) for friends and family are part of how I live. Am emotionally and physically there for family friends and wish to extend this to offer financial stabily for self and others. And add "rest" and "travel" into mix. Thank you xx
Excellent philosophy.... Means do obscure the way for many to think and plan clearly towards their true desires and goals..They need this format permission to enable their greater self flourish grow and contribute at their highest level.
I've been focusing on this so much, at least I've been trying... trying to heal. I know I'm not going anywhere until I heal what's wrong inside. It's much harder than it sounds.. but I appreciate the thinkers like Vishen and Mindvalley.
Experiences - What experiences out of life do i want out of life befor I kick the bucket - find people to love and love me back be around my loved ones, do silly things with my loved ones - find someone to commit to - run around joke around, laugh, be idle - not be idle, do challenges together with people - spend holidays in latin america, go to strange places - create something - videos online, invent something, create solutions to world problems. Growth - What do I want to grow? - be good at IT -learn spanish - be a leader - be a confidant - be liked. - be inspiring, be empowering - be calm, be happy, release, be free and confident, self trusting. Not be self conscious, do not hold back, do not care - lose weight - reasonable enjoyable exercise -be near the water Contribution - What do I want to contribute to the planet? -make people happy and feel loved - protect the world - inspire efficiency, create dialogue and inspire someone's mind - give art, give creativity - make the world a more diverse place - kindness
Experiences: Travel(all continents), Create organization for orphans and homeless, Base jump, Teach and help many many people, own a hot air balloon, own lots of land Growth: meditation, learn; italian, french, Portuguese, be one with the universe, gentle humble nature, garden, no sugar, hiking, and running a 5k marathon Contribution: End hungar, leave a legacy for my family to follow in my footsteps, create an orphanage awakening mindfulness school for orphans, own a studio to revolutionize mainstream music, give away 1 million $$$
Great video! Thanks a lot! Some things I wrote down: Experience: Getting better in Filmmaking and Art Making, See all the beatifull places in the World. Growth: Be myself and always be relaxed. Contribute: Live greener, helping disabled people, share green-projects with the world!
This was a great lesson and exercise. I can't wait to talk with some friends and do this with them. I know what I want to do but trying to explain it to others is always a challenge. This helped me clarify it more. Still a work in progress but I'm a few steps closer. A couple of my experiences are: Look for our similarities within our differences and to travel/life in different places in the world so I can immerse myself in the culture. A few growths: Connect with my heart & 3rd eye on a deeper level, Eat healthy foods with different flavor palettes, Keep my body flexible by learning fun movements (like yoga, qigong, tai chi). Lastly, Contributions: Visually show people how we are all connected, how we are similar to each other (foods, daily life, goals, etc...) and how we are similar to our world at a high level. Introduce someone to a new way of seeing... anything and everything... if they are open to it.
Just re-watched this & love it even more than the first time! Thanks for the inspiration! I will be sending this with my clients! You are amazing Vishen!
After some intense meditation and affirming I was guided here. Very helpful short video on concentrated focus. Thank you Vishen and thank you God. Love and blessings to all.
Vishen thank you for that! I brought Becoming Limitless a short while ago but have only just decided to use it?! So glad I have!! I've realized that some of the things you are teaching (and a few others) I learned years ago but there was no movement of any kind in the area of self-development so I've just been marking time until the last 5 years really and of course I needed to be totally open to what the Universe wants for me. My dreams are big, I was just about to get caught up in creating a business but not where I really wanna be or what I want to be doing-I want End Goal living! I want to be mixing with all the top Teachers and leaders because that's why I'm here. At the moment it seems the Universe has me doing preparation for this next chapter of my life and your teachings are really helping me so thank you!! I would love to come and work at Mindvalley?! It would move me forward no end and I have so much I could give back to all of you!! Time will tell eh? Thank you again, sending you all lots of love! xx
I am older than most people who do this...but I am always in that category, so that's fine. I want to change my life to something entirely different in the realm of experiences and accomplishments. I have accomplished some interesting things in my life, but they are still not making me feel that I have achieved the things that will satisfy my "core" happiness...the "me" that I am when I am alone, and wondering why I am in this big world. I am looking forward to a new path of successes that will nourish the artist, the poet and the romantic inside of me that are desperate to blossom and come forward into the world as the rest of the "real" me!
Man I wish that this was around when I was growing up. I sit here, just pondering where I would have been if this was available to me earlier. I have a job that I really could care less about, with folks that really have not much in common with me. I, like many folks have fallen victim to the "Societal Rules" got a good job, house blah, blah...Still wasn't happy. Went thru a "Get Real Challenge"!!!! The lights came on and my eyes hurt...because it was the FIRST time I ever looked thru them!!! Started to study some things to liberate my mind from the "box" it was in. This exercise confirms things I was thinking all along and just didn't know how to act on them. Thanks and the journey continues!!!!!!!!
Wow! I have not seen anything like this before. This is totally incredible. This is the way the world should be presented to the people of this world. We should use this to raise our children so that they would not make the same conformist mistakes that we have made all the time. I want to experience the world through travels and vacations, i want to grow spiritually and become a moral influence everywhere I go and I want to give/share everything I earned including my experiences, and growth to the whole world and my community by building a school and of course, introduction Mind Valley system wherever I am. I would start by sharing these with my family this night.
John Mills I'm 60 and one of my goals is to, by example, give people hope for second chances, or third or 15th. I have had a difficult time coming to this, coming from an abusive childhood into an abusive marriage that I've endured for over 35 years. I am only now realizing there is more. If you're still here there is a reason. I believe I can take everything I have been through and it can be used not only for my development but possibly others as well. I am choosing to believe that my life has not been a waste but that I've grown and will continue to grow due to my experiences. You have probably achieved more than you think. Any day in which a spiritual truth is learned is not a wasted day.
John Mills you just take it from the day you are awake to it. if it is 40 years old then it is 40 if it is 60 years old then it is 60, does not matter the age, it is your awareness that counts, you never stop learning and trying new things xx

Thank you Vishen. Great advice. Teaching this in schools is a must. I'm one of those forty somethings that has awakened to fulfilling my soul purpose. Took a while, but blessed I've awakened. To really set these goals we need confidence and empowerment through self love. Thank you for the continual inspiration and amazing work. YOU are a wonderful contributor making the world a better place and stirring up our souls. Love and blessings, Mary.
I asked myself some important questions, and It made me realize that I partly treated a caterer unfairly. I’m a high-ranking chef at a university and I was told by a student employee that her coworker (let’s call him Terry) had been touching crew members too much. Not _that_ type of touch, just casual ones, like on arms or shoulders. He was always very outgoing and tactile at work. Still, I took him to my colleague’s office for a chat and told him he shouldn't touch anyone without consent. Just handshakes. I said we needed the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, that he pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school. How he shouldn't tell his stories because they may be inappropriate to some degree to the other workers; funny to him only. I think he’s about 25, give or take. He seemed pretty quiet and uncomfortable during my speech. Answered a question or two with a nod and headshake. The only question he had for me was if anyone reported his touching; I said, "It doesn't matter." Maybe that was a bit rude.
That day after work, I saw him being pulled out of the lake--with his eyes closed. I was so horrified. I could only hope he was unconscious. Some woman, who was being held in place by two strong people, was excitedly yelling, "Is he dead?! Is he dead?!" Turns out _she_ pushed him in the lake. Now, I _really_ don't want to go into detail, so I'm just gonna say she injured him in specific ways so that he couldn't swim back to the surface. According to the news, she tried to drown him because she hated his personality and unfiltered jokes and thought people's lives would be better without him. She even told him that before she pushed him in the water, so that he knew he was getting what he "deserved." Thankfully he was given CPR and taken to the hospital for treatment; he's gonna be okay. And that's just it. What if he hadn't? What if my last moment with him was in the office. I realized I may have gone a little too far too. Yeah, I was right about how he should be more filtered at work, and that the touching needed to be restricted for his coworkers’ comfort (and for him to be successful), but I should _not_ have spoken to him the way I did. I should _not_ have said to his boss (who was in the room with us too), “is there anything you want to add?” That was insensitive. I should _not_ have restricted him to handshakes and work/school conversations only. All or nothing isn't fair. I should _not_ have taken him to the office for a formal lecture. He didn't deserve that. He probably felt like a criminal in an interrogation room. Terry never meant any discomfort or harm. He only meant to joke around and have fun with his coworkers, not "make" them his "objects". I should’ve shown more patience and understanding and only given him a very brief and gentle talk in the hall---just me. Besides, it's perfectly natural to causally touch or tap people *without* it being creepy; maybe Terry deserved a right like that, within reason and limits so he didn't go over them and discomfort anyone. He is not like Dan Schneider...but I guess I treated him like the guy. When he recovers, I'm gonna tell him I'm sorry for being a bit too tough on him. That I mishandled the situation and could've done better. I was a jerk.
I did this exercise last year in 2015, and I recently reviewed my responses and I accomplished so many of the things I wrote down that I thought I would never be able to do! Here I am in 2016, writing down new goals and experiences for myself. Thank you Vishen!!
At 69 this was a great exercise! Not only enjoyed it but had some interesting things "show up." One of the motto's I live by is: "The Best Is Yet To Come." Your questions helped to confirm that! Thank you!
+Merry Alexander
Merry, my maiden name was Mary Alexander! Now I am Mary Smith but my teacher calls me Merry! I too am in my 60s and loved this exercise. Fun to "introduce" myself to you!
i have the vision of standing between the tables serving food at my own place, hearing jokes jumping from one table to another one and the big fat laughters following. the place where people feel accepted, loved, respected and where they feel themselves beautiful. i am struggling with my own shyness sometimes, not being able to push hard enough to achieve a goal, kind of mostly waiting for the things to happen themselves. just recently i understood that the table i am sitting at - someone really made it. thank you for the motivation.
also i had a vision once that never leaves: i saw some kind of epic movement of people from one side of the valley to another one, some kind of big shift happening with humanity. i was just standing on the top of the hill with my daughter on my shoulders and watching it with euphoric calmness.
Contribution: to see happiness in people, to teach as a mechanical engineer, passing messages through paintings such as protectin nature/sharing feelings..etc and helping my parents, family and freinds. some of my thoughts i wanted to share and thanks again to vishen. now i know what i need to do
This truly turned out to be something very meaningful…
By the time I got to contributions I began to cry…
haha same effect. blesings.
Out of curiosity, how much of your 3 lists did you complete? Thank you!
@@d.i.a.5392 Wow this was 5 years ago... I would have to watch this video again...
@@d.i.a.5392 You mean compared to the time limit he sets? I just stopped it and added more if there were more...
but I really didn't need much time... I figure if I wanted to do more down the road I will add it... etc...
@@MikeKollin I wanted to know if you were able to achieve all your goals using this. I found this video through another website. I will try a cumulative approach. I hope it will work for me.
Every 12 years or so I get into this "I need to search my purpose in life" mode and it's happening now. This video came in at the right time. I strongly advice to follow Vishal's cue on the video and do the exercise. Surprisingly most of the things I wrote were stuff I already know but these were jumbled up in my mind. Now it's well organised. Time to work on them.
Thank you again.. May need to revisit this in 12 years time. :-)
I want to experience connecting with people all over the world communicating messages of LOVE, Power & Hope thru singing, speaking, writing, acting and service. I want to grow thru becoming fluent in Spanish, French & Italian and creating interaction to people thru these languages. I want to contribute to the world by overhauling what we call education, especially as it relates to the underprivileged, "at-risk" and others who do not have opportunities because of high aptitudes, excellent grades and other accepted models of scholastic achievement.
Thank you. I'm about to retire from teaching. Going to live as an artist...write, illustrate, paint and record music. You've enabled me make my approach more positive. Thank you!
What a great exercise, even if it's played as a parlor game among friends and family. The timer puts everything in perspective -- if it didn't make my list in the allotted time, it did not rank very high in value. Nowhere did my answers mention anything about financial rewards; I believe those come with positive affirmation, energetic action, a drive to contribute to others through my own success. For example, many of my answers yielded clues that I deeply desire return to Peru to find the humble, welcoming, wonderful silver-working family who brought my designs to life when I lived and worked there for three years. It's been 10 years since then, and I'm ready to dive energetically back into creative pursuits that helped others besides myself -- ready to start my business up again, only this time for real. Thank you for helping me reveal to myself what's important: my own growth, success, fulfillment and happiness -- if it's also tied to others' growth, success, fulfillment and happiness.

How's this journey going so far, fellow light worker?? **Reminding you to follow your truest dreams.
I did the excercize literally one minute ago and already feel a great positive vibe and mpre direction to my lifes path to love
I absolutely loved this video. The "Three Questions" made me realize that I need to make changes in the way I live now so that I can truly be honest to my "SELF.". I have the real desire to contribute to the planet by helping people realize that the way we treat the animals who share this planet with us needs to be "re-evaluated." I want to lead by example, so I have to look at the way I live and make the changes in my lifestyle so that I will truly "walk the walk" and not just "talk the talk." My "calling" is animal advocacy and I want to be a part of improving the planet by improving the way animals are perceived by our culture.
When I answered the "Three Questions" what I need to do was apparent. I need to stop being a hypocrite and start eating "right" and in doing so I will finally find the peace and joy that have eluded me because of my "eating habits" and get healthy in the process.
Thank you, Vishen and Mindvalley for all that you do to help us truly "actualize" ourselves.
I hope to one day be able to contribute a car or something truly needed to a family or struggling mom who is in the position that I am now...
I love this! I want to be the person that goes to the local Wal-Mart or K-Mart and pay off a layaway at Christmas every year. Or five. Or fifty. :)
And you will.
i never thought that there will be that much of ideas flowing. it really helped me...
Experience: feel free, a simple and beautiful house, true love not just pretending to love, success..etc
Growth: to learn more and become and engineer, confident in everything i do, am an artist too and someday i want to become as the great Leonardo Da Vinci, dealing with any difficult situation, to have a healthy life....
Thanks for the video~
1. Focus in inner hapiness, not to be limited by fear, have meaningful realtionship with family, love one, friends, spend quality time in gathering.
2. Self management, discipline, planning forward, upgrade own skills and learn new ones, learn new languages, meditate, yoga, aim for full split, participate in triathlon
3. Have a trip with family, love one and friends at least once a year, be volunteer, write & draw to share my experiences to the world, smile
1. I want to experience total freedom and allow life to lead me in any direction, domestically, internationally, and interplanetary. The ultimate is to experience life outside of earth.
2. I want to grow as a deep thinker and motivator internationally, speak another language, and improved health and fitness.
3. I want to contribute to the elevation of my cultures communities by starting initiatives to improve self love and relationships, speak to mindset shifting, and create generational wealth within my family.
Excellent video. Thanks Vishen! #MindValleyIsLifeAltering
I received an email from MindValley asking me to answer one question about a program I bought (before my life turned upside down yesterday). I followed the link, answered the question and somehow ended up here. I answered the 3 questions Vishen asks in the video and I know what to do now. This video has given me insight and direction. Thank so very much!!
I have a clear vision now, it was so fuzzy before. Today I know what my goals are and how to reach them through the means goals. Photography. I wanted to heal folk for years and I did so for many years as a 911 paramedic, I was awesome at it but it wouldn't give me my end goals. It was a means goal. Photography is part of my end goal, a great photograph can calm, soothe, uplift, change feelings make folk happy - that's what I need to focus on. and I will. THANK YOU sooooo much.
I could not disagree with you more if you feel you are too old. I am 53 years old and I have been frustrated with my life for most of my adult life. I have had several books, both fiction and non-fiction, published, helmed successful companies, but only recently did I realize I was stuck in the "means" goals mode. I am more interested now, and more focused, than ever on the end goals. This was an excellent exercise, albeit brief. But if it gets your mind thinking, then embrace it.
Have you ever heard the story of Louise Hay.. her success began at 40!!! Cool for u. :)
Steve welcome to the life of living. I have heard of Louise Hay. She is an amazing person of wealth. I am going to be there and not too long from now either.
Thank you a lot Vishen, you truly make my day! You are a big man/mind, I just hope some day to tell you: hey Vishen you know, what I wish/want a long time ago it's happening right now, and I really have evverything I want!
I hope to come faster that day.
Love this video Vishen. The process is refreshing. You know, 90 seconds isn't that long to fit an entire future into. Even though I'm getting up there in age. There are just so many more things to Experience, plant for Growth, and Contribute in gratitude. I'll be writing a best selling book and screenplay. Starting a new business to provide growth for others (like Mindvalley). Invent a fast-as-light propulsion system, matter - antimatter energy source, and epigenetic mental illness interventions. I'll continue my travels and exploration around the world and U.S. in my private jet and helicopter. I already have the licenses. 50 pound curls will be like lifting donuts and mental calmness will occur spontaneously due to long standing meditation practice. Buy a new car once a year. I'll immediately calm individuals and groups that are agitated with hypnotic skill. Teaching through public speaking engagements will occur with extemporaneous spontaneity while capturing my audiences and improving their lives. Financial, physical, and supportive gifts to family, friends, causes, communities around my many homes will be well received and executed in positive benefits. All this, all this, is just a start with the 90 seconds that you provided and there is much more if I could write faster. Oh. That's right. And while all this is going on I'll retain my well known humility. Thanks!
One of the most powerful meditations I've ever had. I feel true happiness and gratitude in my life. Thanks!
This has got to be one of the most enlightening videos I have come across. I'm excited that this comes at the end of 2014. It gives me new insights as I plan for the year to come. Thank you Vishen Lakhian & Mind Valley!
when we give, it truly does come back to us - one thousand fold ... focus on all that you have, even if it's a little ... you'll be surprised how this will make a change in your consciousness ... beautiful!
My first encounter to Vishen Lakhiani was through Tedx Video on meditation hack.
Each day I feel grateful for the change I've had in my life because of MindValley.
Thank You!
Vishen, and his organization MindValley are by far my favorite company to deal with. When you purchase something from them, you have no worries that the program/product will be of poor quality, or without character. I am completely hooked on them!
This is GREAT Vishen. Love it, did it and will pass it on. I'm also going to start incorporating it with family, friends, colleagues and clients! Wonderful. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! This process is one that I will adapt in my life. Going for the End Goal is what really elevates you. I just went through this simple exercise and was blown away by what I wrote on a piece of paper. My passion and dreams just spilled out and literally came to life in front my eyes as I read my thoughts aloud.
Thanks for exposing me to this Mind Valley.
Goosebumps just reading your message! Thanks for sharing
Dear Vishen, it's an absolute pleasure to come across this video and actually know about you and mindvalley! What a wonderful exercise you have suggested here. It's really of great benefit to each one of us. Indeed, the truth is "life is all about inspiring and getting inspired". :) I seriously feel that parents and teachers should make a constant endeavour of letting the young ones learn about these aspects much early in life, the consequence of which would be a brilliantly positive and strong society.
Jyotika Rajput your welcome, keep up the good work
I love thinking about life this way. It shifted my perspective and helped undo the glue that seems to paralyze me from moving forward when I feel like I want to do so many things. It organized my thoughts and actually brought many of my goals or wishes together in a sensible way, showing me how to start. I will share this with all my 8th graders and my own children too.
As a professional fitness trainer and coach I have recently enrolled in your online Mindvalley workshop 3/12/14 6pm pst and very excited and compelled to learn and grow in new ways! Thank you for your deep candor and honesty amid so many "coaches" out there. Best regards!
As I reflected on my retirement in 7 years, i came across this exercise through Mindvalley; what a game changer, I love it, so so helpful in so many ways. Helping me focus, to feel purpose in my older years, a sense of optimism. Thankyou Vishen.
Thank you so much for helping through this.
At the beginning I thought I would write nothing, but with your guidance, I wrote my heart out.
Truly admire all of your work sir. You're an incredible human being
I watched this video ten years ago and I have achieved so many of those goals. Then randomly four years...one day i found that page that I had wrote all my goals and I was amazed at how much I had accomplished. Today I watched the video again and did the simple task of writing my goals down again. Can't wait to achieve them.
Always find a way to give. This is one of my personal aphorisms and the daily mantra playing in my head as I went from losing everything to making more than twice my income than before. I would wake each morning with one question. Who can I help today. This one powerful question lead me to opportunities every day without fail. All three of these questions mentioned in this video are truly powerful. But as I tell people who have had serious misfortune during this unprecedented time in history, and have lost work, it is not about what you get it is about what you give.
3. In what ways can you contribute to others and the world as a whole? Very powerful!
THIS needs to be re-visited often in our lives..Children and teens should be introduced to it early. Putting my Vision Board in front of me each day. The to-do list can then follow and not overwhelm what truly matters in the long run.

I have just started the creative visualization program Mind Valley offers, and I have to say that so far, it's just simply amazing. The meditation exercises are truly very easy to do, especially the 3 2 1 method. Laura Silva is one of the best meditation guides that I've ever had. She explains every exorcise in such great detail that not possible to become confused and misunderstand. Their motto is if you can visualize it you can have it, and this's really the truth. I would recommend Mind Valley to anyone.
So happy and grateful to have found you, Vishen. I never thought of looking at things in this way. This is very helpful. You've shifted my perceptions. I feel different already just by listening to you and doing this exercise. It's my very first draft. I am asking my heart to answer these questions for me. You are the TRANSFORMER the world needs today. Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Blessings to you. Thank You, Namaste!
Thank you so much for this "3 Most important questions exercise". It truly forced me to unblock the standard "make money" to get to the heart of what will fulfill my soul.
Thanks Vishen. love the way you think.
Greg
Thank You so very much! I am 26 and I am a person who trust my own instincts and avoid getting influenced by the standards laid down by the society. I can so connect with whatever you have mentioned here. It has been a complete emotional roller coaster ride for me. I was so sure about two things in life...that i wanted to do something i love and i wanted to be true to myself to the fullest....i was always guided n instinctively knew abt all 3 questions. Your video brot me clarity. M grateful !
I thought this might be hard to do, I can be so indecisive. Instead, it was really easy and fun! It is great to have a list to remember and draw from as top desires. Thank You!
+Cyndi Rymer Thank you!
Ez
All my life this has been my belief system..I always thought outside the box in a very conservative family..I admire your "breaking free" & forming a company that will prove that this is the future...and our societies..will benefit from your daring to be different. .I listen to you as much as I can because im inspired!!
.
Thanks for the post of the video, it was fun to relearn my desires. I have been taught that the means is the way to the goal. In doing I forgot the goal and have trained myself that those things are now out of my reach. I must retrain my mind to look at the desires and not so much on the means. All I have been doing in my life is staying busy, dogs do this when they chase their tails. Fun to watch for a moment but soon not so.
I just follow to pour my thoughts in 90 seconds and it helps me a lot to see what I want to do at the end of the day much clearer than goals I used to set. Thanks for your presentation a lot...
Thank you Vishen for all that you do.
Experience: attend Academy Awards as a nominee for Best Original Screenplay
Growth: attend meditation retreat
Contribution: write a novel/book that changes people's lives for the better
How is it going?
Very, very powerful perspective, Vishen. This is how I've been feeling lately, and I couldn't finds the words to express those feelings in complete thoughts; because of that, I am feeling "stuck" and I couldn't figure out how to move forward. I am very thankful for your sharing this life-changing presentation. I am finally "unstuck" and set in motion in a new journey.
This is a really good video and exercise. I on the other hand, I am living my life the way I want. About 5 years ago it all changed for me. I was a person that was trapped in the hum-drum of society and life. I had moved to a place where I soon found myself and started learning about myself. I had moved to the biggest County of Texas. Anyway, I had moved back to society about a year ago. I was and still do what I listed on my 3 answers. I travel and am still in tuned with my goals of life.
Thank you for that amazing exercise. I'm an artist and I currently teach Intuitive, Mandala and instruction to women/men and corporations. You reminded me to create ART for Awareness. ART to bring people together, to learn compassion. Art for the Bigger Picture. I always encourage my students to "tell a story, be it theirs or an emotion they would like to portray" For me, my purpose has always been about talking with my paintings/drawings. Best to you and keep up the amazing work. Our young minds are our future.
It was simple exercise! No need to think thoroughly, just let it flow the ideas that pop-up my mind. You did a great job, Vishen Lakhiani!
I am in awe of all the wonderful things you are prompting me to be aware of to transform my life. I am planning on leaving at least 30 to 40 more years, and I was wondering how! Now that I found you, Vishen, I know that my next 40 years are going to be extraordinary awesome!! I'm just 76.

So inspiring. To be allowed to dream, to even be encouraged to dream, instead of just be 'Practical' and get a job to just pay the bills. So freeing. Thank you Vishen.
Nice! I benefitted greatly, thanks! I've thought about these questions many times, but had too much time to ponder. With the time pressure, I just put it down and stopped analyzing.
You are just great, Vishen. I love your business model and who you are personally in the world. This video is a fantastic tool for people to realize what is important to them. Thanks for sharing this.
I am VP Talent Management in AIESEC and I loved it soo much that I am going to empower all my team leaders to follow this guidline while developing members. And that wall... It is amazing.
Wow! Thank you for this. I have just written a book entitled, Human-to-Human Selling and you have captured very articulately how I see the world of sales changing. In the Industrial Age we were taught to sell to pain. Pain is short-term and the process is manipulative. What if we could sell to the higher, nobler purposes of our customers? What if we see ourselves as enabling agents in the lives of others as they pursue their heart-felt purposes. This simple exercise sets us on the right path!
Thanks.....Awesome excercise....Sharing my answers below.

Experiences, Growth and Contributions...how enlightening, simple and mind expanding. Without limitations of money and time the ideas are endless! Thanks for opening up my ability to dream again!! Sincere thanks!
Thanks Vishen for the inspiration. I, too, believe that when we allow the creative, right-brain to express, we come a step closer to fulfilling our dreams and stepping more into our authentic selves. Amongst the experiences I want to have in life are to work at MV as I see and understand what it's all about! So, I've applied! I believe that DREAMS DO COME TRUE, but it takes awareness, discipline and purpose for it to happen. I'll gladly spread the love, reposting this video. Muchas gracias, again! See you soon.
Thank you Vishen for your generosity in sharing your work . . .
honestly, i want to do what u do, i always wanted to build a huge biz around helping ppl to acheive their true desires and dreams. I want to travel the world ad speak at conventions and talk to ppl face to face...I think what happened is that I wanted to seek security and financial freedeom before chasng my dreams, actually i don't even know my dreams until a year ago....thx so much for helping me to truly understand my dreams!!!!
Thank you Vishen for this amazing video. I just recently started watching Mind Valley. My Experience, Growth and contribution are Living a life of abundance and clarity with a loving partner who loves me for who I am and loves himself first. My contribution to this planet is continuing to love and share my positive energy to everything in this universe and being a vegetarian. This exercise gave me better clarity to what me life will be. Thank you for reading everyone.
Thank you for being You. This journey has been nothing short of Amazing and I believe that I can and will be a catalyst for the advancement of the community that I serve. The Universe has intervened and the expectations are Limitless. I look forward to seeing meeting and hearing from that which I have come to know as my Soul Tribe. Continued Health Wealth and Enlightenment to Us All. Together We will change the scope and landscape of what We know is True. One Love
Within this video I was able to open and unlock my reason for Be-ing. I am grateful. Open up and unlock what's already been there from day one. Thank you mindvalley!
I find it refreshing to reset myself, as in a state of rediscovering what is deep inside me and was hidden somewhere as life went by. I feel I become a child again and think that everything is possible just by writing down what I want. It is a truly good thing to do.
This excercice should be taught from the childhood. I see it is a good way for example when someone becomes a highschooler to go back at what he or she wrote at age 5 then when becomes a university student go back to what was written in highschool. We lack self-awareness in the way we are educated in my home country at least. So, I see it is always great to keep track of intrinsic and spontaneaous motives because they reveal what will make us happy in the end.
Experiences:
Deep connection to the whole of humanity
Living an empowered, exemplary life
Vibrant Health in my body, mind and spirit
True Love/Intimate Partnership
Myself as a powerful creator
Total Freedom
Growth:
Confidence
Certainty - even when things look uncertain
Art of clear and powerful communication - public speaking, teaching, writing

Love this video! My Contribution Dream - help bring more equality to the world through awareness and love resulting in reductions of war, poverty and hate. Increase love in the world through stories that inspire compassion and connection. Break down barriers and bring more unity.
That was some divine timing at work, my friend JUST sent this to me on the day after I decided to start life coaching (which was induced by me having anxiety about turning 40 next year and feeling stuck).
Law of Attraction
This Vishen Lakhiani is extraordinary What made him so great so early, is not simply his ambition or his thirst of power knowledge or success, it's his inextinguishable love of the others and his need to share with as many people as possible his talents, his growth and whatever God has blessed him with. He was born for America. Because, only in America, it is allowed to be as great as you can. And what makes him so loveable is his blind confidence in the others, his vulnerability and naivety which made it easy so often (for certain jealous persons) to cheat him and steal him.
He was cheated many times but didn't become bitter or stopped trusting and loving people.
He will never stop growing because of this very special humility and his unselfish and boundless love
Can you hear his message "whoever I am, anyone can be, whatever I have, anyone can have" The more blessed he is the more he wants to share with others all his blessings.
His main passion is CONTRIBUTING. The power of love, is the power of contributing.
He thinks he has an extraordinary mind......But all I can see in him is AN EXTRAORDINARY HEART
Thank you. The meditation made me realise how much I wish to grow and develop myself and my business with meditation at the core and make sure the experiences of rest, travel and being there (emotional, physically and financially) for friends and family are part of how I live. Am emotionally and physically there for family friends and wish to extend this to offer financial stabily for self and others. And add "rest" and "travel" into mix. Thank you xx
Vishen tyvm ll meet for sure. Yes I am doing all this.. SU God bless you and your family always love and respect for you always
Whatever you do, don't forget to love and live!
Excellent philosophy.... Means do obscure the way for many to think and plan clearly towards their true desires and goals..They need this format permission to enable their greater self flourish grow and contribute at their highest level.
I've been focusing on this so much, at least I've been trying... trying to heal. I know I'm not going anywhere until I heal what's wrong inside. It's much harder than it sounds.. but I appreciate the thinkers like Vishen and Mindvalley.

I admire your goals Susana.
Have you started doing these things or these are still just a comment in RUclips, please I like to know.
Great video! Thanks a lot! Some things I wrote down: Experience: Getting better in Filmmaking and Art Making, See all the beatifull places in the World. Growth: Be myself and always be relaxed. Contribute: Live greener, helping disabled people, share green-projects with the world!
This was a great lesson and exercise. I can't wait to talk with some friends and do this with them. I know what I want to do but trying to explain it to others is always a challenge. This helped me clarify it more. Still a work in progress but I'm a few steps closer. A couple of my experiences are: Look for our similarities within our differences and to travel/life in different places in the world so I can immerse myself in the culture. A few growths: Connect with my heart & 3rd eye on a deeper level, Eat healthy foods with different flavor palettes, Keep my body flexible by learning fun movements (like yoga, qigong, tai chi). Lastly, Contributions: Visually show people how we are all connected, how we are similar to each other (foods, daily life, goals, etc...) and how we are similar to our world at a high level. Introduce someone to a new way of seeing... anything and everything... if they are open to it.
Love you, Vishen! Thank you for "going for it!" in your life so we could be inspired to do the same.
Just re-watched this & love it even more than the first time! Thanks for the inspiration! I will be sending this with my clients! You are amazing Vishen!
After some intense meditation and affirming I was guided here. Very helpful short video on concentrated focus. Thank you Vishen and thank you God. Love and blessings to all.
Vishen thank you for that! I brought Becoming Limitless a short while ago but have only just decided to use it?! So glad I have!! I've realized that some of the things you are teaching (and a few others) I learned years ago but there was no movement of any kind in the area of self-development so I've just been marking time until the last 5 years really and of course I needed to be totally open to what the Universe wants for me. My dreams are big, I was just about to get caught up in creating a business but not where I really wanna be or what I want to be doing-I want End Goal living! I want to be mixing with all the top Teachers and leaders because that's why I'm here. At the moment it seems the Universe has me doing preparation for this next chapter of my life and your teachings are really helping me so thank you!! I would love to come and work at Mindvalley?! It would move me forward no end and I have so much I could give back to all of you!! Time will tell eh? Thank you again, sending you all lots of love! xx
I am older than most people who do this...but I am always in that category, so that's fine. I want to change my life to something entirely different in the realm of experiences and accomplishments. I have accomplished some interesting things in my life, but they are still not making me feel that I have achieved the things that will satisfy my "core" happiness...the "me" that I am when I am alone, and wondering why I am in this big world. I am looking forward to a new path of successes that will nourish the artist, the poet and the romantic inside of me that are desperate to blossom and come forward into the world as the rest of the "real" me!
Man I wish that this was around when I was growing up. I sit here, just pondering where I would have been if this was available to me earlier. I have a job that I really could care less about, with folks that really have not much in common with me. I, like many folks have fallen victim to the "Societal Rules" got a good job, house blah, blah...Still wasn't happy. Went thru a "Get Real Challenge"!!!! The lights came on and my eyes hurt...because it was the FIRST time I ever looked thru them!!! Started to study some things to liberate my mind from the "box" it was in. This exercise confirms things I was thinking all along and just didn't know how to act on them.
Thanks and the journey continues!!!!!!!!
Always find something useful to my personal growth when Vishen Lakhiani speaks.
Wow! I have not seen anything like this before. This is totally incredible. This is the way the world should be presented to the people of this world. We should use this to raise our children so that they would not make the same conformist mistakes that we have made all the time.
I want to experience the world through travels and vacations, i want to grow spiritually and become a moral influence everywhere I go and I want to give/share everything I earned including my experiences, and growth to the whole world and my community by building a school and of course, introduction Mind Valley system wherever I am.
I would start by sharing these with my family this night.
What about those who learn that at 40, they have virtually achieved no end goals nor means goals?
John Mills I'm 60 and one of my goals is to, by example, give people hope for second chances, or third or 15th. I have had a difficult time coming to this, coming from an abusive childhood into an abusive marriage that I've endured for over 35 years. I am only now realizing there is more. If you're still here there is a reason. I believe I can take everything I have been through and it can be used not only for my development but possibly others as well. I am choosing to believe that my life has not been a waste but that I've grown and will continue to grow due to my experiences. You have probably achieved more than you think. Any day in which a spiritual truth is learned is not a wasted day.
John Mills you just take it from the day you are awake to it. if it is 40 years old then it is 40 if it is 60 years old then it is 60, does not matter the age, it is your awareness that counts, you never stop learning and trying new things xx

Thank you Vishen. Great advice. Teaching this in schools is a must. I'm one of those forty somethings that has awakened to fulfilling my soul purpose. Took a while, but blessed I've awakened. To really set these goals we need confidence and empowerment through self love. Thank you for the continual inspiration and amazing work. YOU are a wonderful contributor making the world a better place and stirring up our souls. Love and blessings, Mary.
