Become an Intellectual Maverick

3. Intentions
The Absent You
• There’s an obvious threshold to open the gateway of achievement and this hinges on the structural
framework of your presence.
• We need to become present to the components that will take you forward exponentially.
• This is an investigative process where one will either emulate existing successes, or alternatively
investigate the profound acumen and aptitude within yourself to mobilize your intentions.
• Basically, you need to employ your genius within.
4. Awareness
A Student of Your Own History
• To become a student of your history, is about looking back to gain the awareness to peer into
your future.
• It’s meant to be an insight into wisdom, not a paradigm, but an awareness to see the world
through ourselves and in ourselves.
• It is the call to action to engineering change through the vibrancy of possibility, shaping
circumstance and launching your ideas into greatness.
5. Qualities We Communicate
French Kiss Life
• At any given time we are exhibiting qualities mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
• We actually invest in our life and our return on investment becomes directly relative.
Become aware of how you factor yourself into life.
• Live passionately and always investigate how you can reinvent yourself so that you become richer
inwardly and as a result invest that richness into life.
6. Intellectual Processes
Become a Sophisticated Thinker
• Sophisticated thinking is based on the conscious focus of your thoughts.
• Sophisticated thinkers are not really interested in a single decision or isolated decisions; they are
however, interested in the process of making decisions over a lifetime.
• Essentially we should never focus on a goal, but rather place all of our focus on the process of achieving
the goal.
• Thinking within an intellectual paradigm and steering away from making emotional decisions are the
• qualities that will bring in coherence and dynamism into your achievements.
7. Decisions
Do You Own Fear?
• Fear is our relationship with time.
• You are a timeless wonder travelling through the continuum of time to explore the deepest recesses of
your psyche.
• To know yourself is to know that fear is not personal. All fear of failure, whether it is subtle or dominating
is not a part of you.
• You don’t own it, nor does it own you. If you travel to a place of silence, if you viewed it with a depth and
timeless wisdom, you would arrive at the realization that it is impossible for you to fail.
• For you see, it is not people that fail, it is their employed strategies that were not conducive to the
outcome they were seeking.
• So don’t take your past personally, rather place your focus on employing richer strategies.
8. Desire
The White Heat of Desire
• Desire is a process of discovery, your capacity to maneuver and your ability to play with the rhythm of life.
• Super achievers expand their repertoire and constantly flex their mental muscle to these techniques.
• Desire is what allows us to jump from one reality to another by transcending our thinking into
miraculous achievements.
• To awaken our greater soul is to open the portal to possibility.
• We all have those innate powers and abilities. Remember to smile.
9. Neurological Programming
The Political Bum
• We all have these political agendas which are basically our capacity to judge and manipulate others, relative to
what we perceive ideal to be.
• These range from our simple political attitudes daily to world political arenas.
• The next time you judge someone’s hairstyle, opinions and characters, just remember that the actual loss
of resonance in that moment is caused by the political bum in you.
• So stop blocking the sunshine from falling on everyone’s faces, including yours and awaken the love that is the
most natural state of being.
10. Relationships & Meditative
Touch A Heaven With Your Smile
• Life is infinite beauty in every direction; however we are unable to access or see it.
• We get so caught up in the discord of our psychology within the busyness of our fast paced lives.
• The simple truth is that you can only touch the beauty of life by touching your beauty.
• If you look through the lens of love, gratitude and contribution, you will be able to see and touch the infinite
• beauty that makes life on earth a heaven.
• Learn to smile like sunshine everyday and brighten up your world.
11. Health & Nutrition
• When you are looking at the business of your life, it’s obvious that health and nutrition should be your number
one priority.
• Make sure your body is in an anabolic state.
• You have to maintain a balance between your acidic and alkaline blood levels.
• You want to make sure you are getting a fair amount of exercise so your breathing patterns are more full and
your heart rate increases.
• Always watch your iron, vitamin, calcium, magnesium and zinc levels.
• The art of relaxation and de-stressing is very important.
