Your Mr. Miyagi

Power of Accountability: to make real decisions one must have a system to act on the decision.

I have been listening to the New York Times 6 time best seller; The Game, by Neil Strauss. In a nutshell the book is about his experience from starting as a loser writer for The Rolling Stones to becoming known as the World's Greatest Pick Up Artist. Towards the end the house named Project Hollywood falls to shambles, and Neil begins to realize the whole purpose he joined the pick up community was not even close to coming to fruition. The point was to join a group of people with a drive to become better mentally, physically, financially, and most of all socially. The drive to be socially accepted and not be the goofy nerds anymore. In turn Strauss says "our house has turned into 'Lord of The Flies'".

It is human nature in which we get stuck in the amygdala, taught by Matt Townsend at The Townsend Relationship Center. The amygdala is where we decide to fight, flight, or mate. It is very common for a man to have those urges and to act upon them in our society, yet we as humans have something no other species have... and its the ability to move to the Neo Cortex or higher brain way of thinking. It is the ability to live the B side to the truth in your own life.

As Neil Strauss converses with pick up guru, Mystery, he begins to learn the true lack of every pick up artist; the inner-confidence, the inner-game, the self-validation. As Mystery breaks down in tears he says to Neil, "I never had a Mr. Miyagi". And Neil learned that Mystery never had a father to teach him how to be happy for himself, and more than that, that being your self was not enough... yet being your best self is required.

The B side to the truth today is who is your Mr. Miyagi? The power of having a mentor; that may be your father, a coach, a friend, a sibling or whom ever it is, is the difference from just being your self and being your best self. The ability to be accountable to utilizing your max potential and developing your true'ness' to a quantum leap is the power of true relationship.

So ask yourself this question, who are my Mr. Miyagi's? I have number of them... and the one's that have helped me become my best self are: My Parents and My real estate coach, Bob Loeffler. Along with great friends that are uplifting more than depleting my energy.

Identify your 5 most important Mr. Miyagi's and and your 5 enemies (people that are bringing you down). Create a plan that will allow you to increase your relationship with your Mr. Miyagi.
