  • I Thought I’d Be Further Along By Now
    Jan 30 2025

    In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept that lots of people feel. I thought I’d be further along by now. Both Kelly and John have experienced this. Kelly experienced it when she was about 35 and finally making the leap to entrepreneurship. She always envisioned that she would be an entrepreneur from a very young age. But at 35 she’d never made the leap. John experienced this when he was both 40 and 50.

    One of the things to do to overcome this is you must establish a personal mission statement. Something that really drives your life. And it’s got to be emotional. And it’s got to be something beyond yourself the drives your life. That’s really the starting point for accelerating your success in life. John talks about then discovering a success formula. And giving up hope by the time he turned 50. Ironically, he discovered the success formula in the most logical place at 50. The top book in the world on success. But it wasn’t on the surface. It was buried deep inside Think and Grow Rich. And that’s the essence of this podcast.

    The reason lots of people feel like they should be further along with their life is because they’re just winging life. They don’t have an actual way of doing life. And the effect is they keep on re-creating the past. During this podcast John and Kelly talk about the power of not only having a success formula, such as our 12 minute a day methodology, but also being self-aware. John and Kelly talk about their journey of becoming more enlightened.

    John Mitchell

    John’s story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn’t as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there’s a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.

    When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.

    His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.

    John’s technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.

  • What is Mindset
    Jan 23 2025

    In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the concept of mindset. A concept we hear a lot about today. But what is mindset. John and Kelly discuss this at length. And John has a very simple explanation of mindset. It’s controlling your thoughts. And here’s the significance of controlling your thoughts. Your daily actions determine your success in life. Every action must first be preceded by I thought. Accordingly, when you control your thoughts, you control your actions.

    Then John points out the most significant thing he ever learned in his life. That 95% your daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. Accordingly, if they are unconscious then your subconscious mind therefore controls your life. And to gain control of your thoughts and actions, again 95% of which are unconscious, you must proactively manipulate the subconscious mind. So logical it hurts.

    During this podcast John Kelly discuss the bifurcation of society. Only 2% of people today have control over themselves and 98% of people do not. We have all sorts of technological advances going on in society, but people’s ability to control themselves is decreasing. And John points out that the differentiator between the mega successful and the moderately successful is control of self and focus. Control of self is your daily actions. Focus is your thoughts. Mindset is all about controlling your thoughts. And that’s what our 12 minute day methodology is all about. Impacting the creation of your thoughts. So the right actions happen automatically without thinking.

  • Our 2% Mastermind: Tweaking Up Your Visualization
    Jan 16 2025

    In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly discuss the newly created quarterly “2% mastermind” that is free to all listeners of The Missing Secret Podcast. For those listeners who are doing our 12 minute a day methodology, you’re living your life quarter by quarter. Accordingly, you have a new goal each quarter for your career, a new goal for your marriage, and a new goal for your health. In the 2% mastermind we answer questions as you tweak up your visualization. We also give you examples of how we’re changing our own various goals.

    During this podcast John and Kelly also talk about helping people doing the methodology really understand what their strategy for success is. Kelly talks about the evolution of her strategy for success with her recruitment firm. John explains the strategy of success for think it be, his human performance Company. Then John and Kelly talk about the importance of understanding what moves the needle. What really moves the needle. And making sure listeners understand that in the visualization when you talk about what moves the needle, it’s what activities you personally need to be focusing on.

    Towards the end of the podcast John makes a pretty blunt statement. You gotta figure out your life. Nothing magical is going to happen in your life to make it what you want it to be. It’s all on you. You have to figure out your life. And the life GPS template is the tool for doing that. And the effect of the think it be it methodology is it affects one’s daily actions. It also affects one’s enjoyment of their life because it puts their life in perspective.
