In 28 years of interviewing millionaires and studying world-class success, my favorite success strategy is the non-linear leap. This is a little known strategy that uses leverage to catapult people from modest to extreme success–almost overnight. I’ve seen it and experienced it. It’s nothing short of amazing. Watch this short video I shot in Toronto, Canada after speaking at a celebration gala for Bob Proctor. My critical thinking question for you today is: can you identify a potential non-linear leap in your business? This may be the most powerful and underutilized strategy in the  Mental Toughness University Program.    Steve Siebold   (2:54)

Las Vegas is one of the legal gambling Mecca’s of the world. Atlantic City is another. The lottery in the United States generates billions of dollars in revenue. Casinos on Indian Reservations are wildly popular. Online poker is a multi-billion dollar business. So here’s my critical thinking question: why is something so popular illegal in most places in America? Isn’t it about time America grew up and stopped trying to tell it’s citizens what is moral and what is not? How about this idea: let’s legalize gambling, tax it at a high rate, and pay down some of the 14 trillion

As we move through the last quarter of 2011, consider this critical thinking question: what single skill, if you were to develop (or improve on) it before the end of the year, would make the biggest difference in your life? Answers from previous years include public speaking, better writing skills, communication, etc. Watch this short video I taped on Lake Lanier and I’ll look forward to your comments.  Steve Siebold  (2:12) [media id=176]

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Gay/Lesbian Delusion discussion. Some people expressed logic-based thoughts while others were fueled by emotion. We also witnessed some examples of emotional overwhelm. Separating logic and emotion in decision making is one the most important skills, especially in business. This is something we teach Fortune 500 executives, and even they struggle. Watch this short video and rate yourself on this critical skill.  Steve Siebold  ( 4: 19 ) [media id=175]

I want to thank everyone who weighed-in on Part 1 of the Gay/Lesbian Delusion post. What a great (and important) debate! This is simply too big to stop at one post! So here’s my response to many of the comments offered in Part 1. Watch this short video I shot in London and I’ll look forward to your comments. Special thanks to Mike Michelozzi and the many others who helped kick off this discussion. Steve Siebold (5:00) [media id=174]

This is one of the great psychological/moral delusions of our time. I’ve asked hundreds of gay people in my audiences for years whether or not they chose to be gay, and every one of them has given me the same answer. This is a very controversial subject in America, although it shouldn’t be. Watch this short video I shot in London, England this morning and I’ll look forward to your comments.

There are 1,068 critical thinking questions in the Mental Toughness University curriculum, and in terms of getting what you want out of life, this is the ultimate. If you can answer yes to this question, you’re probably headed toward a world-class existence. If not, it’s never too late to change. Watch this short video I shot in the rain forest in Lake Arenal, Costa Rica. I’ll look forward to your comments. (and thanks to everyone who weighed in with such passion on the last post from Costa Rica. Another spirited (but respectful) debate. Steve Siebold (2:12) [media id=172]

What would you love to try if fear was not an issue? What could you get excited about doing that looks really scary? On a scale of 1-7, 7 being most urgent, how strong is your sense of urgency when it comes to getting what you want while you still have a chance? Watch this short video and weigh-in with your comments. Steve Siebold (2:30) [media id=170]
