The Unleashed Mind Shaping Your Mindset for Success

“A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you’re not living in alignment; you’re not being true to yourself.” - Steve Maraboli Attachment and authenticity, our two needs as human beings that if not managed well can lead us to living the lives we do not want. Being authentic gives us freedom, joy, and fulfillment but it is quite challenging to do, for when we become really attached to this world, our current operandi is to never be ourselves. Although attachments help us survive, they can also limit us from being who we were meant to be. We need to be more aware and accepting of the attachments we have and let go of those that do not serve us. Being true to ourselves is a decision we must consciously and intentionally make every single day. These are just some of the points that Dr. Ray Sylvester and I have been delving into in the past few weeks as we started a new series of podcasts centering on the all-important subject of attachment and authenticity. Join us today, as we embark on the last part of this sequence, but not the last stop of the journey to discovering your true self. Learn how you can turnover your negative attachments, maximise your talents or your unique gifts, and most significantly transform yourself. Stop holding yourself back. Be uniquely you. Highlights: Disproportionate attachments can have negative impacts on someone’s progress. To be authentic is to deliberately commit to time with self and to be present in a moment. We limit our potential when we make our attachments based on competition. Talent needs perseverance and passion to grow. Transformation comes from the renewal of the mind. Important stories: 3:16 Attachments that limit us. 6:50 The decision to be authentic. 17:15 Unintentionally intentional. 24:48 The need to persevere with the talents you have. 40:08 Authorship and authenticity. 47:50 Being born with authenticity.

“Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be attained only by someone who is detached.” - Simone Weil​​​​​​​ Are you merely surviving? Would it not be great if you were thriving? We survive through our attachments but thrive by being authentic. Authenticity is being true to yourself, and standing up for your values and principles in the metaphysical state. It is the result of who you think you are and the things to which you are attached. There is nothing better than finding our own unique gifts and sharing them with others. We can all contribute and make the world a better place in our own distinct way. However, most of us are governed by our attachments because of the enormous impact of what we are told and the trauma we experience. This prevents us from discovering our true potential. For us to be who we truly are, we need to be aware of our negative attachments, detach from them, and find positivity. Join us in today’s episode to gain more insights on how you can master a balance between the two human needs. Dr. Ray Sylvester and I will delve deeper into this incredibly significant subject. This is the fourth part in a series of podcasts. We encourage you to listen to the whole sequence to understand more how your attachments affect you as well as how you can fulfill your need for authenticity. Be kind to yourself. Be the best version of you. Highlights: Detaching does not invalidate attachments. Attachments are connected to our five senses and are evidence-based. We can master a balanced perspective on managing setbacks by being kind to self while recognizing where you are. The sixth sense is the origin of movement toward authenticity; it is a deeper form and sense of self. Being in a deep contemplative state allows us to break away from fear and the association of experiences as well as find our potential. Important stories: 1:28 Detaching from attachments to be authentic. 4:48 Negative attachments in life. 10:31 Setback, relapse, denial, and recognizing attachment. 18:28 Identity with a better version than the current self. 22:40 Living the challenges now. 24:55 Choosing authenticity and having faith to find your own way. 37:15 The balance between engagement and disengagement in today’s times. 41:36 Making attachments positive.

“Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It is about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.” - Brené Brown Our attachments begin to form from inception as part of our survival mechanism. They are our way of navigating through the world we live in. However, there are those that limit us from being our authentic selves. It is therefore imperative that we recognise and let go of the ones that do not serve us, as well as understand our necessity for authenticity. How do we do this when our attachments are connected to our everyday interactions? These are some of the points that Dr. Ray Sylvester and I will delve into today’s episode. This is already the third part of our new series of podcasts.  Join us in our profound conversations on the incredibly significant matters of identity, attachment, and authenticity. We will also further touch on the impact they have on our lives and the importance of looking at who we are at our core. Nothing is more fulfilling than being true to yourself.  Give yourself time to reflect on the things you are attached to in your life. Stand up for your deeper purpose. Highlights: Thriving is becoming authentic through your own decisions. The need for attachment is stronger than the need for authenticity. Attachment is our way of navigating around this world, while authenticity is finding who you are and having a deeper sense of purpose. Symbolic interaction is a dichotomous assessment of identity. Our reflection space helps us move into authenticity. You are addicted to your attachments if you are busy being busy. Important stories: 2:34 Identity formation. 5:59 Attachments can unknowingly impact our lives. 8:38 The challenges in education in relation to attachment and authenticity. 10:09 My own attachments. 13:20 Moving from social identity to authenticity. 16:55 Dr. Ray Sylvester’s attachments.

“As soon as extreme attachment comes, a man loses himself, he is no more master of himself, he is a slave.” - Swami Vivekananda Are you having difficulty getting out of the situation you are in? We all pursue to veer away from where we are, but we often get entangled and instead fall deeper into the conditions we do not want. Although attachments are part of our lives, being overly concerned about them is detrimental to us. It is only when we learn to disengage that we discover our authentic self and gain more peace and fulfillment. Come with us as we venture deeper into the realm of attachments in our pursuit for authenticity. Tune in to this second episode of a new series of podcasts to gain more insights. Learn how to acknowledge and safely detach from the tangible measures that others have imposed on you. Avoid self-destruction. Have the power to stand up for your true self. Highlights: References to us are typically connected to tangible measures that we recognize. People use tangible measures to protect themselves from the view and perceptions of others. Peak consciousness is the ability to explore based on who you are and not on where you are. Deep levels of attachment drown out the ability to hear your authentic self, if they become the most important thing in your life. The easiest we can be is ourselves and the hardest is to be something we are not, but the world teaches us otherwise. If you do not seek support, you could find yourself falling into a deeper state of being attached to where you are. Important stories: 4:15 The tangible and intangible measures in the pursuit of your authentic self. 8:46 Finding oneself again. 16:10 Identifying with and being inspired by David Goggins. 20:30 Empowered not to be attached to anything. 23:19 Acknowledging attachments. 28:58 The cliché in being a self-made person. 33:01 Getting and giving the needed support to get out of where you are. 39:01 Things you can do to avoid compromising your true self.

“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are.” - Brené Brown Are your attachments holding you back? We all have attachments; they are part of our needs. However, most of us give-in to them which in turn, make us live less than who we can be. This does not need to be your reality, for the power lies in what you decide to do with your attachments that can lead you to who you were truly meant to be. Nothing is more fulfilling than being your authentic self, but how do you remain true to yourself and navigate through a world that is full of biases and subjectivity that predisposes you to be otherwise? This is one of the things we will address starting today and in the upcoming episodes. Join us, as Dr. Ray Sylvester and I embark on a new series of podcasts to explore the two basic human needs - attachment and authenticity. In this 5-part sequence, we will have deeper conversations to help you discover your own uniqueness and capabilities.  Come with us on this journey. Learn how to let go of the labels others have imposed on you. Understand how you can detach yourself from the things that do not serve you. Elevate from where you are. Experience the magic of being your own unique self. Highlights: The first step to changing is addressing in your own mind, the uncomfortable label that has been applied to you. It is important to have the right time to reflect, make changes, and do the right level of diligence both internally and externally. You avoid impulsivity and inconsistency by being present. Individual identity is more than the accomplishments you see. It is only when you accept and understand that all your experiences contribute to your wholeness will you be able to decide what to do with the attachments you have. Being able to decide what meaning you put to things in life is the highest level of consciousness. Important stories: 1:57 An overview of my multifaceted relationship and journey with Dr. Ray Sylvester. 5:26 Learning to be you in the presence of others. 9:58 Social identity as opposed to individual or business identity. 13:40 The goodness of being in a pickle. 19:02 The highest level of consciousness. 21:30 The difference between setback and relapse in the pursuit of understanding who you truly are.  Send us a message and tell us what is your biggest takeaway about this episode.  ------------------------------------------------- Check out my brand new 30 Day Kick Start Challenge!

“A short practice that you do every day is better than a long practice you keep putting off to tomorrow.” - Kelly McGonigal Are you making your health a priority? Health is our most important wealth; without it, we would not achieve what we want to accomplish. However, most people do not stop to realise the things they do that adversely affect their well-being until it is too late. They avoid doing things that cause inconvenience. These have resulted in a staggering number of individuals afflicted with debilitating illnesses and even death. The good news is, we can still do something to reverse the statistics. We have the power within ourselves to break habits that are causing us to be less than we can be and learn new ones that will help us live a more meaningful life. Our health lies in what we do every single day. Tune in as I share with you the key areas to better health, the challenges we face, the reasons why we do so little for our betterment, and more importantly how we can live fully. I want to empower you to rise to the challenge. Stand up for your authentic self. Take charge of your health now. Highlights: Learning to evolve and form habits have caused human beings to survive and surpass other animals. We generally like to feel pleasure and avoid pain. Our bodies were designed for movement, but we currently exist in a world that encourages us to live a life of convenience and move less. We all do things that make us less than we can. Obesity is excess energy stored in the body. Emotional struggles cause us to eat more. Important stories: 4:30 Seven key areas of health and the difficulties we face. 9:51 My previous predicament - seeking solace from chocolates. 13:45 Some concerning health statistics. 17:41 Empowering myself. 20:35 The challenges in the food we eat. 22:37 Taking control of your health.

“What we call the personality often is a jumble of genuine traits and adopted coping styles that do not reflect our true self at all but the loss of it.” - Dr. Gabor Maté The journey within is a challenging but fascinating feat. It is one that we do not typically go on because of the fear of what we might discover. The world we live in does not encourage us to explore deep within ourselves, instead, we are persuaded to be what is perceived as the norm. For many of us, what we know as our identity is in fact a result of how we cope with our environment. This in turn denies us the opportunity to be our true selves. However, it is our authentic selves that allow us to navigate through life’s challenges and live a more meaningful life. Knowing oneself gives us peace and happiness. It is for these reasons that I will share my insights from my own journey of self-discovery and reinvention. I will also delve into some of my learnings from Gabor Mate’s book "The Myth of Normal, Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture". Have you found the essence of who you are? Are you being true to yourself? You do not have to be what society dictates, for you are the author of your own life. Go on an epic adventure with me and discover the value and greatness that resides within you. Become who you were truly meant to be. Highlights: ~ According to Gabor Maté, we are born with the need for attachment and the need for authenticity.  ~ Attachments help us survive. ~ Authenticity is being true to oneself. ~ How we think and feel is correlated. ~ We develop personalities and habits at an early age as coping mechanisms. Important stories: ~ 2:30 The essence of you. ~ 4:46 The two needs with which we are born. ~ 6:12 The correlation between how we think and feel. ~ 10:26 Gabor Maté’s normalized ways of being. ~ 15:02 Our own identity and the attachments we have. ~ 21:11 Type C personality. ~ 23:39 My wife’s impact.
