About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview:
#1 Talent begins with brief, powerful encounters that spark motivation. This is called ignition, and it consists of a tiny, world-shifting thought lighting up your unconscious mind: I could be them.
#2 The windshield phenomenon is when you observe top performers and take in their images of their future selves. This can vastly increase your unconscious motivation.
#3 The engraving method is used to learn a new skill. You watch the skill being performed intensely, then build a high-definition mental blueprint. For physical skills, project yourself inside the performer’s body. For mental skills, simulate the skill by re-creating the expert’s decision patterns.
#4 When you steal, focus on specifics rather than general impressions. Capture concrete facts: the angle of a golfer’s left elbow at the top of the backswing, the curve of a surgeon’s wrist, the precise shape and tension of a singer’s lips as she hits that high note, and so on.
