I was attracted to the Be Extraordinary Quest after viewing the one-hour introductory webinar, believing it could help me break through to my next level of consciousness and contribution. I had been consistently operating in Level 3 with some Level 4 experiences. In the last 8 months, the synchronicities, joy-filled flow and surprises that delight (a phrase I use for “luck”) have become more common – including winning a national contest in which I was flown to San Diego to see and meet one of my favorite bands from my youth, Duran Duran – so thrilling! I also was featured on the Today Show in a segment with Blue Zones founder Dan Buettner, and was selected as the graduate student commencement speaker for the School of Public Affairs at American University in Washington, DC. All of this (and more) while feeling more centered than ever before and experiencing inspiring visions of my how my purpose to build bridges and cultivate positive change in the world will continue to unfold. Last year I adopted Boldness as my power word for 2020 with the Knowing that it was time to play even bigger if I was going to make the difference I believe I am meant to make. The Be Extraordinary program was amazing. Several of the daily practices have been part of my life for some time, however, I learned some exciting new techniques that deepened and ignited my meditation process. The timing of this Quest was perfect. I was in the last month of my graduate program (Master of Public Administration and Policy) and I knew this Quest was going to help me grow, become bolder and guide my next steps. My ability to access my intuition is stronger than it’s ever been. I feel so aligned with the Universe and I see it daily in absolutely crazy cool synchronicities – you just can’t make this shit up! I will share just one of them. On Sunday, I had just whimsically affixed two goals on Post It notes on the lampshade in my bedroom to “energize” them symbolically with “light”. A short time later, Magnificent Obsession (a 1954 film about aligning your actions with your life purpose and the Universe!) started on Turner Classic Movies. I love classic films and recalled seeing it years ago. One scene I had totally forgotten blew me away. One of the characters explains to a "lost soul" that we all have the ability to connect with an infinite power source of goodness to help us live our divine purpose and attain our desires…he used a nearby LAMP as a metaphor! (Movie clip is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slIfToCEskk) This kind of thing happens all the time now. It’s like the Universe is telling me, “Ok, you’re ready. You’ll be getting all kinds of ‘unbelievable’ confirmations so there’s no choice but to believe that you’re being fully supported. Let’s go!” I just finished my master’s program a few days ago and I have already started working on a book I’ve had outlined for several years (one of the experiences and contributions from my MIQs). I love having even more clarity around the experiences, growth and contributions I desire and feel so energized with my new toolkit to bend reality for good! I have a calm, but strong confidence about my ability to create my reality. Thank you Vishen (and team) for a truly extraordinary experience. I’m already about halfway into Uncompromised Life with Marissa Peer and have found that to be an excellent complement to Be Extraordinary. The concepts and tools from both Quests are working seamlessly (magically, really) together to cultivate what feels like emerging spiritual superpowers! And, by the way, Vishen, I had you in my board of directors meeting and you were so adorable – you totally geeked out with joy being in the room with my other guides! I would seriously geek out to have a personal coaching session with you! I believe I'm at a significant launching point into my next phase of impact. I have been a spiritual student and practitioner for many years and this Quest and the entire Mindvalley portfolio of Quests are some of the most powerful learning and support I have experienced. It's a very wise investment for those committed to having the life of their dreams and making a powerful difference in the lives of others. Thanks again!
