Teachers from The Secret

My wife and I went to see some of the teachers from The Secret in Toronto yesterday. The event was organized by the Power Within and featured Secret teachers Lisa Nichols, Jack Canfield, John Assaraf, Bob Proctor and Peak Potentials founder Harv Ecker.

Harv is the only one who wasn't actually in the movie The Secret but the material he's been teaching for years is very much in line with what's covered in the movie so he fit right in. Having already been to his Millionaire Mind Intensive, he didn't cover much here that was new for me.

Lisa Nichols was up first and was absolutely fabulous. She is such a dynamic speaker in person and had the crowd with her right from the moment she started. Her focus is helping teens and I can only imagine how powerful her teen events are.

Jack Canfield, creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, was up next. I felt that he started off slow but by the end, he was fabulous. Strangely, my wife didn't think he started off slow at all - she really liked the entire presentation.

John Assaraf gave a really interesting talk along with the most amazing demonstration of how your brain filters out information that I've ever seen. I can't say much about it without spoiling it for others who haven't seen it. This clearly demonstrates that you can be totally oblivious to opportunities right in front of your face.

Bob Proctor was the last speaker of the day. As I look at the successful people who really impress me, it's amazing how many of them credit Bob Proctor as being the mentor who really got them going. People like Loral Langemeir and James Ray and John Assaraf. Knowing this, my expectations on Bob's talk were extremely high and he didn't disappoint.

I came away from this event with lots of notes and action items for my companies and myself. A really good day.
