"I was finally starting to understand why I was thinking and feeling the way I was feeling"

Before I read Code of the Extraordinary Mind, I second guessed myself often, my self confidence was not very high, and I was overwhelmed with emotions like abandonment, anger, confusion and deep sadness. The reason for these emotions was because I lost my father to suicide when I was only 17 and for nearly 12 years afterward, I felt like I was partly responsible. I carried the burden of those heavy emotions with me for so long. 

Then one day I opened my kindle app, and I saw a book called The Code of the Extraordinary Mind. I saw that it was free on kindle, and the title resonated with me, because I was willing to try anything of good consequence to lighten the weight of my emotion burdens. As I read it, I couldn't put it down. I was finally starting to understand why I was thinking and feeling the way I was feeling. I signed up to receive Vishen's emails and I wanted to learn more about the power of my mind. I signed up for Steven Kotler's "Habit of Ferocity" course, then I signed up for Robin Sharma's course and I felt my life shifting! Last year my wife and I signed up for All-Access and the reason I recommend All Access is because my wife and I can take courses we are interested in together and we take other course separate and teach each other. Our marriage is getting better the longer we are married. We are more compassionate, empathetic, and deeply connected physically and spiritually. I was also able to forgive and heal the deep emotions wounds of losing my father to suicide by have a greater understanding of forgiveness taught by Michael Beckwith, and through Marissa Peer's hypnotherapy I am constantly rewiring my subconscious mind in the areas of Health, Wealth, Relationships, and universal abundance. 

My top three insights from being an All-Access member are 
1. You are a soul having a human experience, and personal growth is a natural human tendency 
2. Your subconscious mind is extremely powerful, and understanding how it works is essential to success 
3. Ends goals combined with dynamic meditation and the right habits lead to bending your reality. The biggest positive changes I have seen in the last year are wrapped in up my 5 P's which are prepared, present, productive, peaceful and proactive. Through All Access and Vishen's work, I now understand that I am called to be a suicide prevention activist through teaching about the power of your mind, and how to use it to picture prosperity and how to think of others benefiting from a person's accomplishments. By the way Vishen, I am from Missouri... which I believe is where your college girlfriend was from! It is always good to take a chance on people from the Show Me State!
