There are many ways to become your best self but it starts with cultivating yourself and your talents through finding the path that is going to help you most effectively actualize your full potential.

Success not only means the result of the achievement but also the feeling that success brings.

Modern Musicians train themselves for their success.

With the tools and practices of success conditioning.

With their learning journey, and in their spiritual journey as well as with their career path and the process of producing results.

They are always training themselves to be their best self on a daily basis.

They are training themselves to always do and perform their functions and main moves in all conditions and to create their own reality.

Training is essential for living and performing at your best.

When you learn to train for your success, you take success into your own hands.

Success is achieved twice. First in the mind, then in reality.

Success is who you become in the process of achieving a goal.

The desire creates the vibrational version of what you want. If you can maintain the frequency of what you want, you create the necessary vibration to allow what you want to happen.

So you have to form your vortex through creating your blueprints and then you have to line up with your desires.

Alignment should become very natural for you as you are integrating the dream to runway blueprint, the 7 levels of change and the 7 levels of creation right into your process, and thus finding alignment feels like the natural course.

One aspect of a Modern Musicians definition of success is emotional liberation. One result of music business liberation is emotional liberation. This means the ability to achieve emotional states that fulfill them, and the ability to transform negative emotional states into positive productive and beautiful states.

Success should be the conditioned feelings of wholeness and being complete. A sense of one-ness and a sense of harmony in your life. Success is something you attract from who you become.

Fears and limiting beliefs

In rewriting your story you learned how to change limiting beliefs through belief clearing and now you can use success conditioning to live into the blueprints of your true self, capable of achieving success, regardless of the condition.

Success Conditioning

When we think about success conditioning we have to think about how to integrate the conditioning of many individual dimensions or areas of focus in order to prepare oneself for the success that they will achieve.

Strengthening and conditioning every area of your life with exercises that will help you grow exponentially.

Mental, emotional, spiritual, physical, social, intellectual, financial, career and recreational success conditioning.

Once again, this will become apart of the fundamentals for you in your career.

It’s really all about mastering the fundamentals.

How you think, feel, speak and act.

Thoughts become feelings, and lead to speech and action.

Action leads to habit.

Habits sew a character and lead to pathways.

Pathways lead to your destiny.

Your paradise is just a pathway from where you are now to where you want to be with 6-20 new habits and practices.

If you are ready to commit to your success, the pathway is the most satisfying and fulfilling experience of your life.

You have to learn to love the process and enjoy the journey.

Modern Musicians commit to doing what it takes to achieve their success.

The Flow Protocol is a process of synnergizing the conscious, subconscious, and superconscious minds to be fully engaged in the process of achieving your goals.

You have to link large amounts of pleasure and fulfillment to the creative endeavor so that the thing you are doing becomes the most enjoyable experience. This is how you are able to get into the zone of flow.

Let’s take Roger Banister for example.

He believed that he was going to break the four minute mile.

He envisioned himself doing so over and over again.

He conditioned himself mentally, physically, emotionally so that he believed with every fiber of his being that he would achieve his goal.

Part of success conditioning is believing in yourself with an unstoppable self confidence and self concept that will accomplish your goals.

Part of it is seeing yourself proceeding through the process of achieving it.

Part of it is making yourself a vibrational match to the frequency of the fruit of your goal.

An unstoppable spirit, unstoppable energy, becoming your best self begins with a foundation of success conditioning.

It’s through daily conditioning of the mind on all three levels of mind conscious, subconscious, and superconscious that magic begins to happen and things connect internally and externally.

With success conditioning you can build the confidence and the abundance as well as unlock new capabilities.

There are many tools for Success Conditioning

If you were a client i would generally recommend one or two to try consistently for a month and then report back what you found. You may fall in love with these tools as they will draw the best out of you and properly prepare you to receive the good that your higher self is, and the treasures you have in your future. Falling in love with your own success is perfectly acceptable, but find something that you love about what you are doing, commit to it and it will bring you joy all the way through the journey. Success conditioning will only add to your attractiveness.

Visualization

As mentioned, Roger Bannister used visualization in order to see himself as he wished to be. In order to see his wish fulfilled. In order to see himself actually accomplish something that others thought was impossible. But through conditioning and believing in himself he was able to accomplish something that changed history.

Think of it from outside your perspective Multi sensory experience Think in terms of movie scenes Notice how it makes you feel to adjust the dials in the visualization Make it brighter, make the feelings stronger, use visualization to step into your best self

Visualization can be one of the most satisfying and valuable things you can do to motivate and inspire yourself. The only problem is that it’s hard. Maybe you’ll find it easy and if so go with it. I’ve not found it to be as simple as I wanted it to be, but that I’ve improved over time I can now see how important it is to my motivation and thus I work at this a little every day and it certainly adds to my motivation in certain ways. If done correctly, meaning that you visualize the things you WANT or desire or plan to experience-it is an extremely effective method for priming and paving a pathway for things to happen in your life. I will delve deeper into visualization tactics and techniques in another lesson.

Priming

When you psychologically prime yourself to feel or perform a certain way you can circumvent all the environmental and external events that lead to or cause the feeling or experience and put yourself into that experience through positive associations and priming to improve your state of being.

A wall is primed with a coat of paint before it gets the final coat to stick.

A baby is primed to get into certain joyful states when people go “well hey there cute little baby goo-chi-goo,” and a professional athlete primes himself with certain feelings and ideas that he experiences while listening to his favorite music before the big game.

A warrior primes himself to perform a certain way through preparing for the moments he will enter and do what he has trained himself to do.

A peaceful warrior gets in touch with the range of positive human emotions and experiences and primes himself to get into the ready state on their way to optimal performance.

Priming yourself to feel a certain way is useful to your overall ability to prime those emotions and experiences through associations, trigger words or phrases, and circumvent certain environments or processes typically required to get into a state.

Priming behavior - this is one of the best ways to trigger your best behavior and performing at your best.

Advertisers and tv networks prime you for creating thoughts and associations that lead to purchasing decisions and create brand impressions including certain thoughts and feelings about a particular brand.

Priming can be negative or positive. I don’t do much negative priming as I want to focus on positive priming for experiences, emotions, feelings and positive experiences and reactions to me and my message.

You can change your state of mind with a priming routine and you can prime yourself to feel certain states, experiences and emotions through repetitive positive priming to create positive associations that help you create a beautiful state that is your life.

Segment Intention

Segment intention is your ability to intend and create an experience or event, to visually illustrate and thus activate a series of processes that perpetuate good patterns of thought, feeling, speech, and action during a segment of time. One cycle as we call it. One single work block of time. Usually 25-60 minutes. The greatest power we really have is being able to use your inner os to intend the way you want something to go and then create that in real life.

This power is most illustrated by the power that a musical artist has to impact the world through their genius. The ability to create experiences is the gift the ultimate creator created for us.

With segment intention you are practicing the art of allowing.

It’s the prepaving of the pathway of wanted thoughts and feelings.

It’s the vibrational blueprinting for your segments and it’s a tool for taking conscious command of how to best use a situation or time block.

It’s a process of focusing your thoughts by becoming more aware of them and choosing the ones that cause you to thrive.

You’ll get better at the process of segment intending through practice and experience. Deliberate creation is one of the most satisfying experiences we can have as humans, and segment intention is one of the best ways to achieve that.

Prayer

Prayer didn’t become a mainstay practice in my life until recently, most of the time my prayers were prayers for help. It was about god if you can help me out this time I will honor and serve you. I learned that god is love and that prayer can be apart of the manifestation process, and that when you proactively thank god for the things he’s doing and continues to do in your life, that you get better results, have less problems, and overall enjoy a happier quality of life. God is the great king of this world and if you don’t know him I encourage and urge you to seek his council. It is through the grace of god that I’m here doing what I love for those that love it.

Preparing

Now I added this one into the game as a success conditioning tool because the act of preparation is a mainstay practice I want you to develop in your life. Preproduction includes preparation and planning and is the first stage in the growth of your life, business, health, wisdom, you name it. Preproduction is apart of the content business growth process. You are always preparing, and while you do not need to be a doomsday prepper, in expecting the worst out of life I think you condition yourself for things closer to that kind of a reality when you do think and act like the things are going to turn into the worst possible outcome. I advocate for preparing your mind body and soul for the functions, experiences, relationships, events, and situations that you want to happen. That is the purpose of success conditioning. To make doing the thing successfully apart of your way of life. Scientifically, If you are always improving and preparing for the future you are excited about you will be much more likely to bring it about, and do so without as much stress and pain and chaos.

Reviewing notes, papers, journals, processing ideas, thinking of solutions.

This tool is another one I’ve added into the game although it can be somewhat similar to preparing, but because you are like a rocket ship headed to the stars I want you to build the practices that help you achieve and keep your success, happiness, fulfillment and flow. One of the best ways to know where you are, and to understand what you know is to review your notes, papers, journals, and proactively add up the ideas into understandings that generate breakthroughs and insights that will change your life in subtle and not so subtle ways.

Reviewing old papers, notes, journals I’ve solidified and built a base of wisdom from knowledge and experience that serves as a foundation for all future projects, experiences and events in my life.

Incantation

This is something I learned from Tony Robbins as he used this tool to prepare himself for his roles in life and motivate himself to activate his higher self and serve the world and the person he was working with at the greatest level he was capable of. I’ve found that incantation are like affirmations in that you have to be in a receptive state in order for them to be effective. Essentially with incantation and affirmation you are trying to use the conscious mind to ingrain these ideas as beliefs in your subconscious mind and that’s when you will experience the full power of these tools and practices.

Affirmation

Autosuggestion or affirmation is another weekly regular, apart of my daily life that I’ve used to encourage a positive emotional state and become greater than my environment. Through centering and rooting to my true self and using these tools to keep aligning and coming back to that as the base set point for my life, I’m able to activate my life and past experiences to create value in the moment thus giving me a control and feeling of creating my own reality. It’s much different than worrying and reacting to the news of the moment and the thus I’ve found it to be a very effective way of conditioning myself for success in a variety of ways.

Declaration

Another very powerful success conditioning tool is the declaration. You’ve heard of the declaration of independence. Well declarations are one of the strongest forms of committing and anchoring a belief, action or outcome you are committed to creating in your life. These can be changes you want to make, or things you want to do, these can also be standards for your relationships, thoughts, or feelings. In the second Rule of the GAME you are declaring your artistic independence and committing to the growth of your music business and life.

Imagining

Imagination, also referred to as the sixth sense by some, is actually best looked at like this. Your imagination is the connection between you and god. Your imagination is god, and when you are using your imagination positively you are activating the gifts of the creator. Imagination is a powerful form of success conditioning that should be used alongside all the other tools. Your imagination contains the power of God. The force that creates worlds. Don’t ever underestimate the power of your imagination to create miracles in your life and the lives of others. The problem is that our imagination wanes for the practical realities of life and our experiences and we forget that we have this incredible power. Activate your attention through concentration and harness your imagination to unlock your full potential.

Belief Clearing

Another tool for self development, another form of conditioning yourself for success is to actually clear and remove the blocks that limit you called limiting beliefs. These are the nuissance beliefs that internal friction, can cause split energy and unwanted experiences. Beliefs are frames in your matrix. Strong beliefs have strong roots and should be planted with care and consideration for their purpose in your life. Belief clearing is crucial to paving a pathway for the wanted thoughts, feelings and experiences in your life and should be looked at like weeding or planting in your garden. You have an entire lifetime of amazing experiences to look forward to, integrate regular belief clearing and you will find less friction in the experience of your reality.

Meditation

This is the most important mainstay practice that Modern Musicians integrate because it helps accelerate and integrate all your development though a simple practice that you’ll love and look forward to doing each day. Meditation is crucial. To your balance, to your sanity, to your happiness, to your fulfillment, to your mastery, to your performance, to your productivity, to your health it is scientifically proven to improve your quality of life and help you create positive daily experiences and emotions. If you haven’t already begun, start your meditation practice today starting with as simple as 5 minutes and building up to 20-30-60 minutes and multiple times a day, and as long as you can go. (I’ve gone up to 12 hours, though you don’t have to be so ambitious.)

Emotionalizing your vision

Another crucial component in turning your dream into a daily set of feelings and experiences working toward your vision with alignment and a sense of purpose is harnessing the tool of your emotions to feel and connect to your vision each day.

Self Talk

The way we talk to ourselves affects how we feel about ourselves and others. Your self talk is about the way you see yourself, and what we are trying to do is to improve the way you feel and see yourself through positive self talk that inspires and motivates you. Think about the difference between when you are beating yourself up and when you are encouraging yourself to do something new. They are two ends of the spectrum, and the self talk you have conditioned yourself to becomes easier. Break the bad patterns of negating self talk with uplifting self talk that inspires the best out of you. I want you to start to treat yourself the way that you’d treat a great friend. You would never talk to yourself the way that you sometimes talk to yourself, so plant that seed and begin to water it the next time you find a negative dialog. Try to find the good in yourself and others instead of jumping to the negative and replaying the negative in addition to telling yourself harmful or destructive things.

Success conditioning keeps you on track with your optimal flight path

As I’ve grown in my life and in my work, I’ve had a greater and greater sense of being autotelic with my daily activities, as mastery becomes the driving force for my life and work.

The journey and my engaged interactivity with my learning and development over the years has led me to a deeper understanding of how each piece of my life and work draw parallels to stories, points, lessons, and ideals.

I was playing a round of golf with my dad on Sunday and I had several great shots that gave me vision and inspiration as well as clarification for how to apply it in my life.

On the downward swing before impact with the ball I had the sense that my swing plane was on a flight path to an optimal trajectory and destination.

I create products to contribute to the world, serve my ideal clients and customers and drive my life where I want it to go through who I become.

Each product is on a flight path and that is the critical path of what needs to happen in order to reach it’s destination. The goals for each project.

The flight path are the tasks and process on the launch runway, the impact point is the launch. You need to set all the dominos up and then knock them down.

The problem is that the fear uncertainty and doubt keeps us from both seeing the pathway as well as taking the action, thus we don’t feel the aliveness of working towards a goal and enjoying the process.

There is a feeling of knowing that you need to cultivate through building your unstoppable self concept, and it will give you confidence throughout the wavering feelings of FUD. Fear uncertainty and doubt.

The Flight Path

Your flight path is your launch plan and the tasks on the runway.

You have to feel yourself locking into your flight path.

And you have to see your flight path. You don’t have to always see it start to finish but ideally you can see the whole flight path of a launch.

When you can feel the automatic pull of the momentum bringing you into the flight path as you stay focused and complete the mission, you can live into the energy of the future as it pulls you toward your destiny.

This is how you concentrate into results.

Modern Musician Activation Exercise

This exercise is called Lock it in.

It’s a little phrase you will remember anytime you feel like you are off track or just drifting.

Lock it in.

When you make the decision to LOCK IT IN you commit your mental and physical energy to doing something. The best in the world develop their ability to commit to something and then lock it in during the process to ensure they complete the mission.

When you’re distracted or in FUD you are going to remind myself to lock it in and then simulate yourself feeling like a train locked into your success pathway, aligned and on the right track.

Lock it in is a mixture of anticipation plus expectation with conscious and subconscious willpower that accelerates your path with quantum leaps and major breakthroughs on the journey to your paradise.

Lock it in in each day and each week.

Don’t wait until perfect, just lock it in and get into action.

Get into action on your dream and when you have the spirit of nothing can stop me you have the spirit of a Modern Musician.

Remember the principles:

You have to believe you can achieve it.

You have to know how you are going to get there.

You have to align with what you want.

You have to take massive action.

This can start out as small steps that gradually increase into larger periods of concentration and massive action.

But success is a state of mind. It starts with your attitude.

Success is a journey and success is a process.

Success is a way of being starting with an attitude and you can condition yourself to being that way starting now.

Success means harnessed potential meets opportunity to add value.

Therefore we have to know what we are training and preparing for.

We have to learn how to feel and prime those states now.

With success conditioning we can turn ideas into gold, and beliefs into the pathways that guide you to your dreams.

“You have to condition yourself so that no matter what without a shadow of a doubt you will achieve the results you want”

Tony Robbins

The path to success is conditioning yourself with small steps each day that prime and prepare the pathways to the experiences and events you plan and prepare for, performing and acting on the opportunity. Success is adding value to your fans and customers, and anything that leads to self actualization and self realization. One way I’ve heard it put is, if you have a goal and are working toward it you are successful. I thought that was a great way to put it. Use success conditioning to become successful in your life and career.
