Dan Mangena on "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle

One Book That Changed My Life

Show Notes

Daniel Mangena stumbled upon his own success code while trying not to fail at ending his own life, and he has Eckhart Tolle’s "The Power of Now" to thank for it. Dark, but within it, we can learn just how naturally powerful human beings are at changing our own internal programming. It doesn’t matter what we say we want, what matters is what we desire at our deepest unconscious level. What happens when what we want to achieve isn’t in alignment with that internal programming? How do we get our unconscious minds on the side of our desires?

In this episode, Motivational Speaker, Best-Selling Author, Writer, Podcaster, Business and Life Coach, Dan shares how this book showed up in his life and how it almost-effortlessly completely changed the direction he was headed.

Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

How a faith-based background can affect our inner programming Abundance is our natural state. We’re wired for success and achieving the goals we set out for ourselves, but very often religion beats that out of us and installs a belief that success is the result of ill-gotten gains. To correct this programming, we have to reconcile our beliefs with whatever success is, otherwise there’ll always be that internal conflict.

Why our results are predetermined (even before we take action) You’re never failing, losing or procrastinating, your unconscious mind is just moving you towards whatever you really want at a deeply unconscious level. You’re not broke, you’re just playing out the exact financial situation you’re aligned to internally. Our minds perfectly execute whatever images they get from us. When we’re not getting what we want, it’s because we’re giving them crappy images to begin with.

How to get your beliefs aligned with what you want Our input is what creates our programming from when we’re little, and it can be changed. The same method that built us can rebuild us, it just requires more effort because we now have analytical minds that will filter out those inputs to match the story that we have already. Our God-given gift is the ability to step in and have a say in what’s going on in our programming.

From an author’s perspective, there’s no greater achievement than having your ideas become so deeply ingrained and absorbed that people unconsciously implement them. If there are two books that have rightfully earned that status, it would be “The 22 Immutable Laws of Marketing” by Ries and Trout and “Crossing the Chasm” by Geoffrey Moore. These books have made a life changing impact on a marketer I really respect, Christopher Lochhead, so much so that he believes any card-carrying marketer can’t consider themselves one without reading them.
