Mind, Money, Meaning 2012

Registration for our 2012 Mind, Money, and Meaning Entrepreneur’s Program and our flagship mastermind Ascended Masters Program are now open!

When we created Mind, Money, and Meaning – we wracked our brains and tapped our network. We noticed that there are a lot of programs out there that offer great things – but the people who take them don’t necessarily end up any better off.

We asked everyone we knew, from people like Eben Pagan and Joe Polish to senior execs at Cisco and Quantcast – “When you want to change the vector of your life or your business, how do you do it?” “Why do some people keep growing – with their businesses – and others just seem to stay in the same place producing the same results?” We then looked at our own successes and failures through the years. When were we really able to help people actually change the circumstances of their lives and reap meaningful financial benefits? When did we struggle to be of any help – even though we wanted to so badly?

Going from success to significance

These programs are a deep exploration in what it takes to have a successful, happy and free life. For many of us our biggest challenges today are the same ones we were having a month ago, 6 months ago, and even a year or more ago. Creating a different future with significantly different circumstances requires that we have the appropriate ‘ecological’ support to make it happen.

It’s about creating a life where you wake up each morning and are inspired and excited about what you are creating in the world and can’t believe the talent of the people you are surrounded by. It’s about creating a future that wouldn’t have happened anyway and learning how to change the hearts and minds of those around you. It’s about learning how to make a difference in people’s lives while you do it.

2012 Mind, Money, & Meaning Program

This is a year long entrepreneur’s course designed to give you a masters level education in Marketing, Sales, and Leadership. When you join us for the year you will gain access to resources, expertise, knowledge and new life long relationships that will significally impact your personal and professional life.

Ascended Masters Program 2012

“Ascended Masters are believed to be spiritually enlightened beings who in past incarnations were ordinary humans, but who have undergone a process of spiritual transformation originally called Initiation in Theosophy but in the Ascended Master Teachings it is referred to as Ascension.” (from Wikipedia)

In choosing the name “Ascended Masters” we wanted to communicate a few things:

1) This program is not for people who are striving, seeking, and struggling. It is for people who have reached a certain level of success and enlightenment, such that the driving motivators are contribution and generosity.

2) This program is not a dry business seminar or shticky marketing summit. It is meant to get at the nature of who we are, and express that through successful entrepreneurial ventures.

3) This program is for anyone who considers themselves a master of their domain, and wants to expand that domain to the largest context possible, in service to the betterment and evolution of mankind.

Registration for Ascended Masters is now open!

The program begins March 9th 2012.

Attention Coaches, Teachers, Workshop Leaders, Writers, and Facilitators!

Your Words Should Be Changing More Hearts And Minds Then They Are Now

It can be pretty hard to get the word out about your work. It seems like everyone out there is speaking on your topic, and even though you KNOW that the way you talk about it is special, how many people pay close enough attention to really get the difference? When you do send out a post or get up to speak, there are always those people in the audience you REALLY connect with – and they come up to you after and tell you great things about how they’ve been affected by your message. But what about the others? What about the people in the audience who nod and smile, but don’t ultimately change the course of their lives based on your influence – even though you KNOW they could? Do you ever have that awkward silence on the line when you ask if there are any questions? Do people say they love it, but then take no actions? Have you wondered if there was some slightly different way you could present your material that would get 100s of retweets on your blog or dozens of comments on facebook? Is there some magic formula that gets people to single you out among the hundreds of others that bombard them with basically the same message and say, “I want to follow YOU. You get it – and you get me! This stuff is profound!”

Put yourself in their shoes for a minute:

When you see someone talk (or write) about a topic you care about, you put them into one of 3 categories.

1) THE IDIOTS: I want to roll my eyes! (e.g., I don’t agree with their perspective)
3) THE SAME-OLDS: I like this person. (e.g., most of what they have to say I already knew, and I’m entertained by the way they say it)
4) THE REAL-DEALS: I’m blown away. What they are saying is so valuable I’m not sure I even get it all the way – but I totally agree with it and feel that they could really help me!

How often do you meet a “REAL-DEAL”? Not very often. If you sit down and really analyze the work of the Real-Deals (like I have) you’ll find something amazing. They often say basically the same thing as the Same-Olds. The Same-Olds get lots of good feedback. People tell them nice things about their blogs and presentations. They find customers – and get great testimonials. But they don’t have the reach the of the Real-Deals. The Real-Deals create massive impact with each blog article, teleseminar, and live event. When a real-deal takes the stage, the audience says ‘Woa’. And most importantly, the most influential people you meet want to work with, connect, and be key customers of Real-Deals… and when they meet a Same-Old, they simply smile, nod, and go home.

If You Speak To 20 People, At Least 15 Of Them Think You Are A “Same-Old” – Just Because Of How You Organize Your Information

The Same-Olds and the Real-Deals often have the same message – Think of Tolle’s “Power Of Now”. He’s obviously the Real-Deal, but how many other teachers, authors, speakers, and workshop leaders have you heard talk about the importance of the “present moment”? Why is Tolle so revered while the others are often treated like a joke behind their back?

Its because of HOW they tell their story – NOT because of WHAT story they tell.

Wow. Sit with that for a second. You are already working hard to reach people and tell them about your work, and some number of them drink your cool-aide. What if you could dramatically change that number just by changing how you organize basically the same information you already believe in? You could get twice, three times, four times the exposure from all the activities you are already doing. And when you meet those really influential people – well known authors or leaders in your industry – you could be confident that they will know right away that you are the REAL-DEAL, and want to align with you and your message. And you wouldn’t have to change what’s unique about you and your perspective – just the manner in which you unfold that mystery.

Think about a really good murder mystery. What makes the mystery engaging and rewarding is how they unveil the information about the crime – not the information itself. Its all in the order of things – the twists and turns – the narrative arc – the character development – the indelible images – creating the demand of anticipation in you – and then after a moment of suspense, satisfying that demand… just enough! This skill with narrative is even more important when writing or speaking the art of transformation. Its the difference between the Real-Deals and the Same-Olds, and the best news is, its learnable.

Anyone who’s heard me speak knows that I get how to move a room. Eben Pagan, Danielle Laporte, Jonathan Fields, Marie Forleo and Kane Minkus regard me as one of the most compelling speakers they’ve ever seen. But it wasn’t always that way. When I started out teaching business courses based on “The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People” in the 90s, I was really, really bad. I couldn’t hold the room’s attention – I couldn’t change anyone’s mind when I answered their questions – I even would get confused about what I was trying to say. I had to learn, step by step, how to organize my thoughts in a way that captures people’s imagination. I used my 7 years of movie-making experience to put together a formula for interactive story telling that puts the audience’s attention right where I want it, and I developed a series of practices and guidelines that allow me to give groups of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and more the feeling that we are engaged in a profound dialog together – regardless of the topic.

Several of our past students have asked me to share my secrets, and I’ve agreed to do just that in a 4-day retreat. We’re calling it the “Transformational Speakers And Authors Intensive”, and its designed to decode how to create material that transforms peoples lives and leaves them in awe.

Some People Already Think You Are The Real-Deal. But Does Almost Everyone?

This retreat is ONLY FOR YOU if:
• You have some material you believe in
• You are ready to step up your game and play at a world-class level
• You write, speak, or coach on a regular basis
• You know that you don’t yet have the full impact you deserve
• You get pretty good results already
• You want more clarity about what “your message” is for the world
• You want your marketing to match your persona

This is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL for anyone who wants to be a thought leader in your space. You will not find this stuff anywhere else and it will change the way you think about your work forever.

This retreat is not for you if:
• You just care about tricks that will get people to buy
• You aren’t open to changing how you write or say things
• You haven’t been able to make money yet doing what you do
• You don’t want to be a leader in your community

Everyone Will Leave The Retreat With Material That Will Deeply Move Even The Most Discerning Readers / Listeners

This retreat is designed to set you apart in your field as the Real-Deal, giving you both made-for-you material and the ability to write your own that will have the hottest people in your industry standing in line to work with you. I’ll make sure you leave with a scripted 90 minute talk (you can use this as a teleseminar, live intro, or even a written manifesto) AND a solid outline for a weekend workshop, a year of coaching, or a multi-week teleseminar that people will want to spend thousands for. Plus you’ll get an understanding of all the techniques, guidelines, and principles I use to make sure you can create jaw-dropping material in the future. In addition to teaching you how to choreograph your “dance”, we’ll spend some time teaching you the performance techniques you’ll need to really pull it off as well.

“Bryan is the most compelling speaker I’ve seen. I’ve studied Tony Robbins, Marshall Sylver, T. Harv Ecker, and all the greats. Nothing compares to what I’ve learned from Bryan about leading a room.”
- Kane Minkus, International Speaker and Coach www.jeffandkane.com

“I was at an event while he was speaking recently, in the back with a few of the top marketers and bloggers in the world. When Bryan started speaking, one of them, who’s insanely hard to impress, leaned over to me and said, “um, holy crap, this event just began.”
- Jonathan Fields, Bestselling Author, Career Renegades www.jonathanfields.com

“One of the neatest human beings – and also one of the smartest when it comes to leadership. If you get a chance to be in a room with him, take it. Possibly one of the best in the world at teaching this stuff.”
- Eben Pagan, Multi-millionaire creator of Get Altitude, Guru Mastermind Course, Wake Up Productive, Guru Blueprint, and Double Your Dating.
