'a course in Greatness' can likened to a modern gymnasium for developing your Genius. You have here the tools, the personal trainers and the complete workout program, to holistically and systematically exercise the virtues, qualities and paradigms of the Greats.

The theory is translated into habitual actions, habitual mind-sets and habitual states of being, by following 3 performance optimization principles:

1. ERGONOMICAL SUPPORT STRUCTURE

a natural Growth ProcessThe course is structured so you directly apply the wisdom, strategies and insights into your present life scenarios. It is designed to harmonize with your lifestyle and create a path of least resistance, with maximum effectiveness.

'a courses in Greatness' gives you real 'handles' on the subject matter and how it relates to your present life dilemmas. It has gym-like programs and mechanisms to make progressive and incremental gains, - i.e. resting and exercising in a systematic and holistic way, day by day.

With each module you habituate one major discipline of Greatness, which takes exactly 40 days of continuous application.

Why 40 days?

It takes 40 days to truly develop a habit at a subconscious level. Psychological research, as well as the lives of the most enlightened human beings in our history, have shown that when you consistently exercise a set way of thinking, feeling and acting - it becomes ingrained and second nature. You own it for life.

A 40 day schedule is a highly productive and sure-footed means towards the realization of your Greatness. While you may be more familiar with the frenzied, forceful, full-scale assault that most self-styled “success coaches" recommend, it is actually much more fruitful to make gradual, sustainable growth over an extended period of time.

The burnout approach is what fuels stress, not Greatness.

Mental, emotional and spiritual growth is no different than the physical growth available through training. Steady and regulated exercising creates far superior results, compared to the common quick-fix, all-out health programs.

Remember,
fundamental life improvements don't happen overnight, - nor in a weekend seminar, nor through a short course. University degrees or any professional training takes between 2 to 6 years, so why would habituating the practices of self-actualizers be any different ?

'a course in Greatness' is ergonomically designed so that each powerful habit is to remain with you for the rest of your life. This is not just an abstract education... It is a series of 40 day workout intensives to permanently establish six life changing habits.

a complete Organic System2. ECOLOGICAL CURRICULUM

Ecology is the science that looks at the relationship between organisms and their environment. It studies the relations of things - the system of interactions and how they impact each other.

Ecology seeks to understand life holistically.

'a course in Greatness' encapsulates the interacting, interrelated and interdependent principles that form the 'complex whole' of personal development.

By participation in the course, you will ecologically look at your personal, social and spiritual development - as a whole.

This program presents all the elements of Greatness as a total system - i.e. integrating Dr. Hill's laws of success, with Dr. Maslow's characteristics of self-actualizers - all condensed into a series of six essential habitual and multi-faceted disciplines.

a course in Equanimity
a course in Charity
a course in Productivity
a course in Integrity
a course in Vitality
a course in HabitForce

These six habit-courses are modeled upon Maslow's pyramid of human needs, whereby the participant proactively cultivates the core practices that fulfill each dimension of self.

Beginning with the first module, 'a course in HabitForce' (which sets the matrix for self-mastery),the course then cultivates the five main aspects of your life's happiness:

from the base physiological needs and the disciplines for increased physical vitality,

all the way up to the self-actualization need and the disciplines of psychological self-fulfillment or equanimity.

This holistic approach will give you greater results - for in life, the whole is greater than the sum of parts.

 

Note: If you subscribed to our free mini-course, 'Secrets to Creating Positive Habits', in a few days time you'll receive an important lesson on the principles discussed here.

a toolset for Direct Knowledge3. EXPERIENTIAL COACHING PROGRAM

'a course in Greatness' is experiential.

When real and measurable results matter, it is vital that the program is full of 'experiences'. It is by this process that principles and characteristics are integrated and expressed in habitual actions.

It's by the process of acquiring knowledge from experience, that all habits are realized. Or like the great poet John Keats put it:

"Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced;
even a proverb is no proverb to you, till your life has illustrated it"

Many of our clients have read tens of personal and spiritual development books before participating in our coaching program, and almost all have had that sense of 'something missing' about their learning. They are frustrated why all this self-education does not wholly meet their needs.

So we like explain it this way: Imagine for a second, that you had never learned to ride a bicycle before - but you were interested in taking up this activity. In order to understand cycling,

- You could read an essay on what it's all about
- You could study the mechanics of it, how momentum and balance works
- You could see pictures of what a bicycle looks like
- You could see videos of what it's like to ride it
- You could even interview people and gain many testimonies of cyclists

But you would not really know cycling, - until you have a direct experience with the process of actually riding a bicycle. As Confucius summed it up beautifully:

"Tell me, and I will forget. Show me, and I may remember.
Involve me, and I will understand."

And involvement is what 'a course in Greatness' is all about.

It works with you to habituate the characteristics of Greatness, by practice, by reflection, by putting together the insights physically, mentally and spiritually - so they become a part of you.

Here's How It Works

In each course you receive the following:

1. A Profound, Easy to Understand and Immediately Applicable Workbook (shipped out in hard-copy for greater involvement)

In each module you'll find a comprehensive set of lessons, that have been thoughtfully organized and arranged to express the many facets of one principal habit of Greatness.

You'll find in it a 40 day 'game plan' for how to thoroughly integrate the wisdom of the ages, - in principle and practice.

These workbooks give you the in-depth picture for your personal development and coach you to make these ideas a part of who you are, through various exercises and assignments.

Inside you'll discover many powerful lessons and unique exercises, for how to literally install great habits in your life style - as simply as you install software on a computer.

Make sure you have a pen handy as you follow through with the program, and be prepared to be flooded with inspiration and creative breakthroughs. Use the diary pages and checklists within to measure you growth: physically, mentally and emotionally.

With the first module, you'll also receive a beautiful custom made executive binder that you can use to store the workbooks for this course.

2. A Video Lecture for Illustrating each Course Module

In each module you'll also receive an audio-visual lecture on DVD which expands the essential ideas presented in the course workbook. These lectures give you 'the big picture'.

The audio-visual medium translates the wisdom though yet another modality of learning. Like a good seminar, it interprets the knowledge here at another level and helps increase your understanding.

Use this on a fortnightly basis to reinforce the key concepts.

3. Master Meditations for Subconscious Integration

The third set of tools are meditations on audio CD that directly connect you with the mind-set and perceptual framework of each habit. It integrates each law of success deep within your psyche.

As numerous research projects have shown, learning that is combined with meditation supersedes the conscious learning process only. The brain is made up of four major parts, and meditation reaches parts that the conscious, sequential and logical brain often doesn't.

When optimally designed, meditations in fact permeate and transform your subconscious mind with the inspiration and vision for Greatness. They are a timeless means to gain insights into the nature of reality that is not available through ordinary linear-conscious awareness only.

Each module features a number of critical meditations for fully realizing the teachings of Dr. Hill & Maslow. Many are based upon their direct descriptions and their recommended structure for learning.

Integrated with the latest technologies of meditation, like NLP patterns and auditory entrainment vibrations, these meditations will help you create a richer, more vivid and holistic experience of each habit. They help increase concentration, awareness and self-control.

4. Live and Personal Self-Actualization Coaching

Most important of all, ' a course in Greatness' features coaching support from me, to measure and track progress, to generate ideas, to solve problems and to mastermind with like minded individuals.

Between once to three times a month, we'll meet up and work on your specific challenges and victories that you encountered throughout the program - in a small group teleconference of less than 10 people.

You have my personal support throughout. There are a number of vital practices that we will perform together, from setting objectives and goals, to clarifying your values and vision... from measuring objective progress, to discussing subjective experiences... from applying specific training techniques, to celebrating transformation.

This is also a forum to put into practice and orchestrate your very own mastermind, which will be an essential asset in your personal development journey.

So what is it worth to you,
to realize the same habits that the world's best have?

Let's put it another way: how much is it costing you not having them?

In other words, what is it costing you not to have a habitual way to consistently improve your body, mind and soul - to find more vitality, integrity, productivity, love and peace in your life?

Seriously, just take a basic habit like building physical health. What's it costing you not to have a well established ritual for conditioning your body? ... an automatic ability to control addictions? ... a way to routinely cleanse and appreciate your physicality?

For a habit like Vitality profoundly impacts the quality and quantity of your entire life. i.e. It impacts each moment through the vibrancy and energy you bring into the present, all the way to the amount of life that you have in time - that is, how long you live.

The price for illness is huge. It impacts not just the 'financials' through medical bills, but your emotional state of being, your relationships, your friends and family... and it goes all the way down into your life mission - how well you realize it, or even 'if' you begin it...

What about other habits like not living with a continual awareness of purpose?
... or not effectively using your time and energy?
... or not habitually relating and communicating well with others?
... or not having peace of mind throughout your day?

In other words,

  • What is the cost for having lived your life, with much less than you are capable of being?

For whether we like it or not, what is certain of life, is that we will loose it.

Yet death is not the greatest loss. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live, as Norman Cousins put it. Therefore what you're about to realize, are probably the most valuable skills for life available anywhere. And they are within anyone's reach that is committed to excellence.

Commitment is the key word here. For like in poker, you get out of life what you put in.

The first module, 'a course in HabitForce' starts at just $418 and includes a coursework of 40 daily lessons, meditations CDs, a DVD and mastermind coaching sessions. Follow up modules are priced higher, but by then you'll know 'a course in Greatness' is worth at least ten times what you invest.

However, please note...

Each Course Class is Limited to just 10 People!

This is not a course that is replicated to thousands. To ensure maximum success, you have personal access to me and a small intimate team with which to create meaningful relationships.

In other words, this course connects you with a 'mastermind' that is united in the pursuit of Greatness. This is what makes the course so powerful.

When you consider that the entry price here is what some coaches charge for just one hour, (all without any of the exclusive material, strategies and benefits you'll be receiving), then you probably know already -- it's a 'steal'!

With that said, do understand that if you're not part of the initial 10 when a class starts, you'll simply miss out. No exceptions. So check this website for the timetable and register your seat early. (Classes fill fast)

THE GUARANTEE: All six modules throughout are guaranteed to meet your satisfaction. During the first quarter of each course, if for any reason you feel you want to stop, you'll immediately and promptly be reimbursed. (see our guarantee page)

In case you're not aware, this is an almost unheard of guarantee in any personal service industry... Why? Because this isn't like a book that we take back and simply sell to another. We are guaranteeing our time and effort. That is forever limited. That's something that we can't gain back.

But we believe this is only fair. We want to be accountable to you. Unless we raise 'your value' beyond what you're investing, - we don't really deserve our fees do we?

The only requirement we have is that you apply the information that you're given, do your exercises, attend the coaching sessions and ask for support when you need it. Although you won't need to explain yourself whatsoever to receive your refund, - unless you'll apply the course, naturally no improvements will be made.

But if you'll do your part, you'll notice IMMEDIATE and MEANINGFUL RESULTS within all aspects of your life. This is fully guaranteed. Period.
So rest assured. All the pressure is on us to deliver.
We are responsible to you to consistently improve your personal, social and spiritual development. And unless we do so, we cannot expect you to keep going with this course.
I hope that I can have the honor and pleasure to connect with you,
With love ,

P. S. If you feel right about this coaching opportunity, if your imagination is excited by the possibilities, if your mind and soul 'clicked' with the ideas here - please don't procrastinate, or bookmark this page for later viewing. You know very well what happens when you do.

If you want the results of this course, the best time to act is right here and now.

Let your intuition be your guide and act with confidence. It is well documented by Dr. Hill that self-actualizers and high achievers make decisions quickly and follow through with action. Begin now with the same attitude.

But perhaps there may be just one thing that's still in the back of your mind... So I'll just leave you with the question that the great Dr. Maslow used to ask his students before beginning his course:

"Which of you expects to create Greatness in your life?"

After a long period of silence and blank stares, he remarked, "If not you, who then?"

"No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but yourself.
Nothing can bring you peace but yourself… What you are comes to you.
Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is of you."
