Being Kind Actually Gets You Ahead – The Mindset of Service

by Leave a Comment

Nice Guys Don’t Finish Last

The biggest misconception out there is that you have to be ruthless in this dog eat dog world.

Ruthlessness is going to kill your soul.

You are starting from the wrong place if you are striving to outcompete people.

When you are truly kind, you are putting service to other people at the forefront.

I believe so strongly in what I have to offer humanity. If don’t go out there and market my coaching services, I’m actually screwing many people over.

I have many ways I can offer value, and I encourage you to strive to serve other people.

Be a Giver

When you are looking for a date, ask yourself what you bring to the table.

Stop being so selfish.

You might want sex or intimacy, but you need to actually offer value.

If you are reading my work chances are you’re smart, and you are also probably very nice.

Kindness is something that many men are getting away from because the red-pill advice out there is telling you to be an asshole. You need to understand that this kind of game only works if that’s your true self.

It’s Never About You

To be valuable stop thinking about just yourself.

Offer solutions to other people’s challenges.

Think beyond what you want from life, if you want money you will get plenty of it. As long as you focus on contribution.

Too many people out there are operating from a takers mentality.

If you just take without giving, people won’t like you. It’s hard to get business when you are only thinking about yourself.

Service to All

Focus on service being your dominant polarity.

I read an article from Steve Pavlina many years ago about love and fear polarization.

The dominant polarity needs to be maximized to be successful.

Lightworkers (love based) define success in terms of how they serve others.

Hell is what you get when you only think about yourself.

Takers are in a perpetual state of hell because they are too self-centered to think about other people.

Heaven is not some higher dimension. It’s a state of being that you have when you are so focused on helping other people.

I have a strong desire to help other people. I work in the mental health field and I offer coaching to people looking to improve their mindset. I often don’t take a potential clients business because I feel like they may not benefit as much as I want them to.

When you sell a service, you want your client to get 10 times the value you are charging them.

Focus on return on investment for your client. If you can’t get someone to where they want to be, then don’t take their business.

The best thing about being a giver is you drop your small self.

You step into your life purpose, and your motivation skyrockets.

You actually get more by being a giver. You can take time to enjoy yourself and recharge so you can further help others.

My Story

In Army Cadets I reached the rank of Chief Warrant Officer because I cared more about service than actually getting to that rank.

I served my unit for 6 years before I got that position, and I never ran out of motivation.

I was so focused on making those around me better that I eventually got all the accolades without even trying.

I was a team player who was focused on being extremely valuable.

At the end of 2012, I retired and other cadets missed seeing me every week.

I was so focused on giving that the success I enjoyed was just a byproduct of my giving.

As a hockey player I was always focused on team success and not my own personal accomplishments.

You will get far more when you focus solely on giving.

Don’t fear that it won’t be reciprocated by the universe.

The universe wants to help people who are serving the highest good of all. Don’t deprive the world of your gifts and talents. The world needs you to help others.

To your success,

Angus

3 Rules of Manifestation That You Need to Know

by Leave a Comment

Drop the Nonsense

To manifest your true desires, you need to understand some rules of manifestation that most teachers wont tell you.

The law of attraction is one of the most misunderstood concepts in personal development. Everyone wants to manifest their dream life.

Maybe it hasn’t hit you that you are already so close to the life of your dreams.

You may already have financial abundance and not even be grateful for what you have.

Maybe the girl of your dreams is right around the corner.

When you embody the energy of “having” and “being”, you’ll attract what you want into your life.

Rule One – Action Trumps All

The universe responds to your action.

Visualization is not as powerful as taking massive action towards your goal. You can use affirmations and visualization to prime yourself, but action is what the universe actually responds to.

You don’t have a so called “vibrational match” until you are naturally taking positive action towards your desire.

If you want to make your first 10 grand online, don’t be a dreamer. Start taking action right now.

Free will doesn’t give us control over our thoughts and emotions, but we do have free will over our focus and action.

A person who is taking massive action is giving the universe more ways to manifest the intention.

Start with intent, then take actions from a place of natural alignment.

I reached my goal of being the Sergeant Major of my Army Cadet unit because I took action every day towards that goal.

Just sitting on your couch and wishing to be successful isn’t going to get you there.

To take right action, have a script and be the main character in your life story. Be intentional, and take actions that are likely to pay off.

Rule Two – The Universe Has to Obey You

You don’t even know how powerful you are.

This lifetime is a video game, and your character is the main character.

The universe wants you to have everything you desire.

Every thought is an intention, and shapes the reality you create.

You are always manifesting, this never stops. The universe is at your command. You probably don’t think of your soul as God. If you didn’t know how powerful you are, you wouldn’t exercise your will over the universe.

When you combine action and intent towards a hearts desire, the universe will never say no.

Your soul may as well be God.

That’s how powerful your soul is.

When you go in the direction of your desire, the universe will always say yes.

God is within, not some external bearded man in the clouds.

To know you are the director, main character, and spectator all at the same time, this will make you unstoppable.

Rule Three – Manifest Essences – Not Objects

You can always have your hearts desire.

You need not give your power away to any external source.

You don’t need money to get a girlfriend. You don’t need anything to receive anything from the universe.

Stop trying to make a dream come true just so you can make a higher level dream come true later.

Go directly for what you want.

The essence of your desire is a feeling. You want to manifest objects and relationships so you can feel a certain way.

What if I told you that you could embody joy and peace and attract everything else as a reflection of your inner state.

Feel yourself rich and successful right now. Live in the authority you would have if you already had your goal right now.

To your success,

Angus

As Within – So Without

The Law of Correspondence

The inner world dictates the outer world.

The law of correspondence states that our circumstances are caused by our state of being. This can also work in reverse where our state of being is shaped by circumstance. 

Your beliefs are the code that programs your life. 

If you want to change your life, you must impress the changes you want to see onto your subconscious mind.

The subconscious and unconscious minds are your deepest levels of inner reality. When you have a belief that is a part of your identity, you will see it manifest in your reality. 

Change the way you see things, and the things you see will change. 

When setting an intention, it’s very important to back it up with belief. If you want more money, or a relationship you must believe you deserve it.

If you don’t have inner faith that is backed by reason, you will not have the will or the persistence to make your desire real.

The physical plane is very slow to change.

The mental plane is the blueprint for the astral and physical planes to follow.

The conscious mind exists in the mental plane, the subconscious is in the astral plane and the astral plane is where dreams are experienced.

The goal of conscious visualization and affirmation is to shape the mental plane so the astral plane of your reality will carry out the same impression.

Magic is the act of changing the mental plane which is the world within. Once this has occurred, the astral plane will follow suit after enough repetition. Once you have manifested your intention in the astral plane, the physical reality you are in will follow suit.

The conscious, subconscious, and superconscious are all one and connected with God or source. Warping probability and creating reality through miracles and synchronicity is the way of the magician. 

Manifesting your desires will work best if you are trying to manifest what your higher self and soul want to manifest.

There is a difference between what you want deep down, and what you think you want on the surface. Try to manifest states rather than objects.

Alignment is the result of being in state, when you are in state you will manifest what your soul wants. 

I want to manifest a million dollars, but my soul could probably care less about that.

My higher self has created my soul and ego with a purpose. There is a journey to be followed and if you follow your heart (which is the physical reflection of your subconscious mind) you will be on the journey of a lifetime.

Think of your life as a game with quests and missions.

When you play a video game, you may want the money to do the cool things in the game. But the game still needs to be fun at some level while you are working towards passing the missions.

You wouldn’t be here on Earth if you didn’t have a plan and a journey outlined. Your destiny will be reached no matter what, when you go off script in your life, your higher self will adjust course and create the miracles to get you back on track.

The soul never suffers, and the soul is always in alignment. The ego is the part of you that feels lacking. The soul embraces and accepts lack as part of the game.

If you line up with your soul and embrace the hard parts of life, they will become easier. The soul never fails to embrace negatives. 

To tune into your inner world and know yourself is the key to understanding what you really want. I love to help people grow, and my core genius is understanding and teaching awesome strategy.

I love life because I see it as a game of mental strategy.

This is why I’m a mindset coach.

My soul wants to become a greater teacher and help people understand how to ace the game of life.

My ego constantly wants more money, and I think money is important. In wealth creation, money is gained by giving value and cash is used to trade value. It’s a medium of exchange.

To manifest money, the key is to give value because the side effect of that will be getting paid. People don’t care too much about what you do or how you do it.

They will be moved if you know why you do what you do. 

I teach magic and manifestation because I want to help people tap into their own power and create the lives that their soul wants.

Manifesting from a place of lack is what people do when they are dissatisfied with their lives. It is fine to be dissatisfied with your life, but if you focus on what you don’t want, that will expand.

Even if you focus on what you want, you will still feel inner resistance. Working with resistance is what separates the great manifesters from the ones who struggle to manifest.

Fear is the subconscious mind’s way of resisting change and growth. The subconscious mind will work tirelessly to keep your life status quo.

When you shift your beliefs, words, actions, and habits – you will be faced with inner resistance. You can be sending mixed signals to the universe when you want something consciously but have subconscious blocks.

The universe will respond to both your intent, and the counter-intent of the subconscious.

Mixed signals bring about mixed results.

Affirmations have to be repeated many times before they make an impact.

Actions have to be repeated before they become habits.

Fears have to be faced and you have to exercise courage to make your fears go away.

The subconscious has a comfort zone, and will send you signals to keep you comfortable.

You can have inspiration and fear at the same time, but the key is to not allow the fear to talk you out of the inspired action.

Taking action anyway will show you that you had nothing to fear, if you fail in action, you have only learned something new.

Re-framing things to change your perspective is a lifelong process and if you can always look at the positives and act, you will be in great shape.

To your success,

Angus

Momentum

by Leave a Comment

Aim to Start a Never-Ending Positive Spiral

We will get right to it.

To have massive successes you need to create momentum and not look back.

Some progress is incremental, other progress is exponential.

Most progress is exponential.

Returns increase the longer your winning streak lasts.

I was living a pretty boring life for the last couple of years. The negatives were really getting to me. In 2022 I more than doubled my income. But I was missing something inside. An empty void. I had nothing major to live for. I was living a life of quiet desperation. I lost a lot of my mojo in 2012 when I was retiring from Army Cadets. In the 6 years between 2006-2012, I became the Sergeant Major of my cadet unit. I was a Chief Warrant Officer on top of the world. I found swagger and mojo. I was one of the greatest cadets of all time!

Until shit started to hit the fan.

In 2012, I suddenly started to have signs of bipolar disorder. Arrested in October of 2012 with 3 months left in my cadet career. I was devastated thinking a conviction on my record would ruin my life. Suddenly it all turned dark, going to school took everything out of me. I was showing up late, missing assignments and was a shadow of my true self.

I finished my cadet career in Dec 2012 being happy it was over because I didn’t have the energy to continue. This story I have has many ups and downs. I had a crush on a girl who went to a different high school, and all hopes of that working out were long over.

I began to get so depressed that I actually sunk even lower and had some of my most intense laughing moments while in this state. If your state is sinking, then you actually want to let it go lower. Don’t stagnate. Stagnation is death.

A few years went by, and I slowly got my life together. I shovelled snow in the winters. In the summer I cleaned parks with a contractor under the city. Finding my swagger became harder when I started to gamble. I wanted to replicate that winning feeling. In 2018, I walked into the casino with my last 200 bucks. I walked out with $2,500. It was the best high I ever had. I also became addicted to gambling very hard at this time.

This was a blessing in disguise because the gambling addiction got me out of depression and inspired me to work and take work seriously.

Recently, I have been rethinking my life. The 9 years as a gambler made me miss out on so much opportunity. I could buy homes and cars with the money I spent. But now at 31, I’ve got my eyes open to what’s possible. Now I’m on a roll and not looking back.

Recent events have lit a fire under me.

I’m no longer living on the sidelines. I’m going after what I want with no apologies for it. This week I went 7/7 in the gym and I’m committing to going 30/30 this month. The gym is a great way to get on a roll. Work intensely while your there. Plenty of time to feel tired later.

The gym is the foundation to positive momentum. It changes your brain chemistry. The best thing about the gym is that a workout is like $1 when you use the membership each day. I’m more determined than ever to build my brand online and show other people what’s possible.

The momentum you get will eventually become a new normal, you’ll have swagger and confidence. The sky’s the limit, and it’s worth it to overshoot because you only get a fraction of what you shoot for.

I want all the best life has to offer.

You can get all the best life has to offer. I’ve studied success for many years, and I’ve made myself more successful as each year has gone by. Doubled the quality of my career in 2022 and feel better than ever. Once you succeed in one area, you’ll wan to succeed in all areas.

You made $500 from your blog this month?

You can look at this one of two ways, either you made a real amount of money and feel grateful. Or you can look at this and say it’s not that much. The former is the right way to look at your own success. The latter will stop you from building positive momentum.

I was so good at resilience in the face of backlash momentum.

The way I’ve made it in life was to look at the challenges I’ve overcome and use my newfound skill to help others rise above the same challenge. Once you’ve learned, now you can teach. So use your lived experience to inspire other people.

Rack up success after success, and you’ll breach the plane of the exponential in no time!

Confidence comes from progress.

Progress comes from confidence.

So right now focus on building positive momentum. Hard and decisive action will get you what you want. No excuses, no tomorrow, just going for the win every single day. You’ll make it, no reason to underestimate yourself. It’s better to believe in yourself and be wrong than to doubt yourself and be right.

You got this!

To your success,

Angus

The Importance of Non-Neediness

How to be Non-Needy as a Man

A lot of dating coaches talk about “non-needy” behavior in the dating game.

I agree with this, but some people misinterpret this is dropping the want out of the equation as well.

You want to be able to talk to many women at the same time.

This is about not putting yourself “all-in” with regards to one specific woman.

By being open to more than one woman before you’ve reached a committed long-term relationship, you save yourself from potential heartbreak.

I was very invested in a high school crush from age 15-19. I got myself in trouble when I kept trying to talk to her. Trying to talk your way out of rejection is the very definition of needy. The takeaway here is not to go all-in on someone who doesn’t feel the same way.

Expressing desire is great because everyone appreciates being wanted. Being needy will lower your value in the dating game.

Know When to Fold-Em

Knowing when to stop investing is part of the game, and you need experience with success and rejection to be able to know when to move on.

Ideally you won’t catch feelings for someone before you’ve really gotten to know them.

Feelings will make you needy by default.

So it pays to act properly regardless of your feelings. I always try to make an effort to set up a date with someone I like. But if it’s a rejection, I no longer invest any further efforts.

Needy behavior can be things like looking at your phone repeatedly to see if she answered your text.

Texting more than she is can also be a sign of neediness.

When you like a woman and have feelings it can be very hard to avoid this behavior.

To avoid catching strong feelings in the first place is ideal.

Stop putting her on a pedestal.

Women hate being put up on a pedestal.

No matter how much you like her, treat her like a normal person. Don’t let your mind idealize her before you’ve even talked to her. This guarantees you don’t run good socially calibrated conversations and talks. Ideally if you are interested in more than one woman at the same time, you’ll be less affected by a single rejection.

I have made this mistake more than one time, so I’m speaking from personal experience.

It’s easier to attract women that you have indifference towards.

The aim is to maintain your frame as someone who they want to impress. See dates as a chance for you to decide if you like her.

The second you make it about how much she likes you, you’ve already lost.

You can’t negotiate desires; no amount of logic is going to help a woman see the best in you.

You either have attraction and its mutual, or you don’t.

The faster you can move on, the better it will be for your state of mind.

Having feelings is not a fun state to be in. You’ll see each interaction as less than fun. To have success with women, you need to be in a fun state of mind.

Joke around, don’t try to be perfect. The less you care about being perfect, the better things will go. Another girl is always around the corner. Don’t worry if it doesn’t work out with the person you think you want.

You may not be missing out on that much.

The brain while in an idealized state of mind won’t see it this way, but you need to reframe your mindset and see the abundance out there. Meet girls at the gym or go out to a bar or club if you want to do that. Don’t invest everything in one woman before they’ve shown they deserve your feelings.

If all else fails, just be yourself and let the chips fall where they may.

To your success,

Angus
