YOU have obviously been through several lengths in order to get to this report. Don’t worry your patience and resilience will be rewarded. By now, you’re probably wondering what is all this “Get Your Mind Right” business all about and what is in it for me. My name is Lee Kariuki and I am the author of three books and currently pursuing a Masters Degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Now here comes the fun part! My life was never a bed of roses and while I come from(Mombasa,Kenya from( Mombasa,Kenya)) a beautiful place, I was struggling with many questions. Questions about who I was and why I am here and why are some people more successful than others. It was this same struggle that I experienced while attending Florida A and M University and in the summer of 2000 I was hit by a “tragic moment” I experienced “life blows” Now if you know anything about life blows you know that they come in three’s. One after the other and just when you thought it was over, you receive another one. www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

It started when I found out my ex-girlfriend was cheating on me, then I was laid off from Sprint pcs loosing my only source of income and just when I thought it couldn’t get worse, I lost my aunt and uncle and grandfather to death within a span of five months. Murphy’s law at it’s peak! I didn’t know what to do and I consider myself a pretty intelligent guy. A perturbation had taken over and I started being reckless and having the “don’t care attitude” There was no difference in days and I lived life on “auto-pilot” December 2002, right around the holidays, my roommate then, was shipping out to Iraq and he invited me to spend his ‘last’ Christmas with his family in Miami Florida. A change was about to happen and I didn’t even know it! As a Christmas gift, my friend’s mum gave me a book, “One Minute Millionaire” by Ray Allen and Victor Hansen. I never got around reading the book and nothing really happened UNTIL after almost two months later. I picked up the same book and thought maybe I could learn something I didn’t know about. I turned chapter after chapter and I realized how interesting the book was. It was my first fresh breath of www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

inspiration after going through so many blows. An eye opener that encouraged me to think big and put aside all the ‘emotions’ It wasn’t until after a few months later that I got in to another relationship only for it to end after three months on a sour note! It was like ‘déjà vu’ all over again.

THIS WAS MISTAKE NUMBER ONE

In 2005 I decided enough was enough and I was going to take time off and figure out the same questions I had while growing up. I knew I still had unresolved issues with my family BUT most important with myself. I had thought of seeking psychological help but I wondered “How could I even get a solution to my problems when I couldn’t even pin point the actual problem?” Besides I couldn’t afford to pay the high fees these shrinks were demanding and I always felt like paying someone to figure out my problems was being ‘ripped off’!


THIS WAS MISTAKE NUMBER TWO. TWO .

Emotions were flaring up and I didn’t know what or how to control them and the situation only got worse. I enjoyed sitting in the dark and never liked talking to anyone. My defenses were on high alert and I was defensive to anyone that approached me! I knew I had to find a solution and fast since I started even alienating the people that had my best interests at heart. This was when I started reading books. I found true solace in reading books! I must have read close to forty books within a two year period and I discovered that reading a good book did three things to me:1. It kept me out of trouble.[The reckless drinking and indulging in negative behavior] 2. It kept my emotions in check since my mind was being pre- occupied by the book I was reading. 3. It made me to appear smarter whenever I had a conversation with people. Then came in the Harvard principle:-


KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING ABOUT SOMETHING.

My forte was emotions. I had suffered depression and didn’t even know it. So I started reading books like ‘Think and grow rich’ by Napoleon Hill, ‘The power of positive thinking’ by Norman Vincent Pearle and so on….

Long story short there were countless books to inspire the mind and they kept me motivated but very few talked about :1. How to stay energetic 2. How to adapt to my environment 3. What my purpose is. As I grew older spiritually I found new strengths in writing down how I felt. I wrote my first book in 2005 and I realized that freedom to me was a journey. Freedom in my definition was not only the absence of physical confinement, but the presence of spiritual, emotional and financial power. Power being the knowledge of thyself and the confidence to do what you desire, on www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

your own terms. The capability of influencing your environment is also power. It was while writing the final chapter of “The “The Mental Orgasm” Orgasm” that all my questions were answered. I came across the documentary ‘The Secret’ through my long time friend David Cameron( who was also the creative consultant for the documentary)in April 2006 and I completely related with the content. I am very excited to be where I am with most of my life questions answered and this is the purpose you are here too. Your Mind is Receptive to You’re Environment For the record, the mind is the starting and ending point of all activity in your body. This three pound muscle has infinite neural networks that are sensitive to vision, sound, taste and so on.. When you smell or taste or see something, these signals activate certain receptors in our brains. The signals go through a complex pathway for analysis and sorting which is dependant on previous experiences. If there was a previous record(synonymous to the computer) the brain executes the action in split seconds. If no record www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

is found, the brain looks to create a new record and YES with most records there is an associated emotion. An emotion is simply energy that is in mobility. It creates a pathway that transfers electrons or activates receptors that create a response in the physiological world! As I get deeper in understanding how pharmaceutical companies design drugs based on the physiology of the body, I realized a way of correlating between the operations in our body and operations outside our bodies. The body has infinite mechanisms that are automated by the hypothalamus to facilitate our well being. For example imagine what it would be like to think about breathing or even which joint to move when a response was required. You’re mind doesn’t ‘think’ of which vessel to inflate with oxygen. It does it through automation and repeated functioning. So if the mind is that powerful to even execute a function as complicated as breathing, imagine what it can do when it comes to controlling emotions or even ‘tailor making’ our environments to suit our specific experiences. A lot of books talk about positive thinking www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

and thoughts become things BUT the question is how do you really execute this and how do you really quantify these results? The biggest problem I had was how to realize my thoughts and I know many many people have had the same problem. To answer this question, I have put together a mind map that would take you right through the process and hopefully help you to look at your life from an analytical point view.


‘GET YOUR MIND RIGHT’ MIND MAP


The Explanation Of the Mind Map.

YOU Who are You? To perfect perfection, one MUST first of all understand who one is OR at least who one wants to appear as! To become, one MUST first be. Not to be funny BUT in the word become, BE is in front of Come. You must ask this question over and over and over again. After you make that decision you forget about it and now concentrate all your energies in to realizing who it is you have chosen to be. Now this is the easy part. Have you ever asked someone to introduce to you who they are? They always start with their names and what they do! Which is ok but think about it, that definition is only a part of who you are! The name you possess right now was probably not the name you chose. It is the identity that was given to you at birth or as you embarked on this journey called life. In my philosophy who you are, is defined by how you feel and even more important what you’re thoughts are at that particular moment. We live in a time and space continuum meaning that who www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

you are is independent of time and space and time and space are continuous. It is the intrinsic energy of the moment. It is the definition of no boundaries. So when someone asks you who you are, in my perspective, you are the here and now. You are who you have decided to become and that is dependant on you. According to Carl Jung, Jung, an individual’s psyche (which is the unseen inner force that influences behavior ,personality and thought) is made of five parts, the persona, the ego, the self, the shadow and the anima/animus. Now try and imagine that at any particular moment one of these properties is influencing you’re emotions which influence how you feel. In order to change how you feel, then it is deductively correct to alter your psyche and that power you already posses. The biggest problem is that a lot of the emotions we experience, we get comfortable with them whether they are good or bad and don’t have any system to alienate anything that is hazardous to our well being. Without a system, we are doomed. A system is any environment that has an input, an operation and output. It could be closed or open but the most www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

important thing here is that each and every one of the steps is detrimental to the output.

What is Your Leverage?

Businesses dwindle and dwell on niches. It is the bloodline of the business. Successful businesses know that to become successful, the business must find what they are good at, and what they can deliver at half the time, cost or even resources. So if businesses are doing this why not you? You are not a business? If you have never thought of yourself as a business, then how can you ever know when you are making profits, losses or breaking even? (I am not only referring to money! www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

Money is the reward for doing your business and doing it well) If this is the first time you’re hearing about this then good for you as it is never too late! There are many people who go through life as it is given to them never experiencing what their leverage is or was. First find out what it is you can do, then work on doing it very well and at half the time cost or even resource! That becomes your leverage.

Image Your image is the energy you’re putting to the world of who you are or who you are becoming. It comes after you have decided who you are and what your leverage is.

ENVIRONMENT

Response and your surroundings After dealing with the ‘you’, the next step is to access the environment. By becoming, you are soliciting a response. The way you respond to the environment’s response determines how much of becoming you are www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

going to be. You must analyze your response in order to measure the level of your becoming. Look at your surroundings. Your friends, your workmates your family. Are they instrumental in what you have decided to become? You must choose the company very very carefully otherwise the entire first step comes crumbling down. Just like a business is very strategic at choosing it’s employees, you must be strategic at choosing your team. We are human beings that are very receptive of input from our surroundings as I had stated earlier. The main question here is, are we to influence our surroundings or should our surroundings influence us? If you chose the latter then go back to step one because you are responding to what your environment is giving to you which is not part of being. To become you must be independent of surroundings and locations. Until you harness this fact you’re response will always be dependent on where you are which is not part of being. We must though, be observant of what transpires in your environment for isolation leads to delusion. All I am advocating is that you become aware of your


surrounding in order to best protect who it is you are or who it is, you intend on becoming.

Access

The World Is Becoming A Village. It is shrinking in terms of accessibility. Today we have tools, through innovation that have made it possible to access any resource that you may require to become successful. It is all up to you to decide how big or small your world is.


BUSINESS

BENEFIT

By now you have decided who you are, you are religiously monitoring your environment but there is one aspect that is lacking. The benefit of your choice. In making your choice you must be a beneficiary of your business. Remember when I said earlier that you must look at yourself as a business, well you must and here is the reason why. If you are not growing emotionally, spiritually and financially then you need to analyze either what your leverage is, or your surroundings. This is the beauty of a mind map. If one thing goes wrong, you can systematically go back and figure out which is the weakest link or the most redundant link. The mind craves for a reward system. Whether you are consciously aware or not, most actions are done with an expectation or an intention. Most Intentions incorporate some sort of reward or response. When I say intentions are more powerful that actions, what I am relaying is that if your intentions are not well crafted, www.TheMentalOrgasm.com Mind Over Matter

your action comes out wrong. Before acting you must completely outline and define your intention without a pinch of doubt that way your outcome will be on point. Besides, intentions come before the action.

PREDICTIONS It is important that as we proceed in life, we need to use our histories of emotions as a model to predict our future. This way we are able to plan and prepare for any mishap. Remember when I told you about my mistakes, I realized what they were. My biggest mistake was that I had never taken the time to resolve who I desired to be and as years progressed, the problem magnified and was passed on from relationship to relationship. My second mistake was that I thought that I could go through this ‘enlightenment’ by myself. You are and never will be in isolation. There are people around you who can pick up on you’re ‘vibes’ whether you are aware or not. So to seek help is not a weakness but the mark of a smart individual.


EDUCATION AND FOCUS

Finally you are and should always experience growth in whatever you do. You must see the gain in every thing that you do either through coaches or reading books. Growth is what determines longevity of who you are and what you want to become for if you’re not growing, then you are not experiencing and growth is the secret ingredient to being. Focus is the ability to put concentration and passion in what you do. It is hard to hone in on it due to distractions from people, environment, advertisers and the list goes on. This is the sole reason why you must absolutely without a doubt be passionate about what you do because when the energy wears out and the resistance to distraction wears out, all you have is…you and what you do.
