WHAT WILL I LEARN FROM THIS BOOK? You'll learn "meditation in action" - which is seeing, hearing, thinking, feeling and acting - from a little distance. This is the method and mindset by which to operate with genius-like clarity and creative power. This "keeping your distance" perspective is a natural, reality-based way of life, a way to "practice" life, a way to do life, a way of living your potential as a healthier, happier, more confident, intelligent and fulfilled person. Nothing else is needed! HOW DOES "KEEPING YOUR DISTANCE" WORK? It works by disentangling your awareness from whatever it's aware of. This is how you live on the higher levels of your potential! It gives you an unbiased, unvarnished perception of the present moment. It's a mindset by which you're on top of all experience instead of below it; above whatever you're seeing, hearing, thinking, feeling and doing - instead of lost or entangled in it. You now know what you're doing instead of "thinking" or "believing" you know! It gives you direct, constant access to the subconscious part of your mind - the part that contains all the knowledge and power you need to take you wherever your heart desires - limited only by your imagination! It puts you in the all-powerful "mind over matter" position where you control yourself - instead of people, places and situations controlling you! It works in accordance with the law of detachment - that you can't know the truth of what you're experiencing unless you have some distance from it. Distance or separation is the truth or reality factor in all experience. For example, you can't read a newspaper held directly against your eyes; a little space is needed! It lets you see your thoughts, feelings, habits and behaviors with such extraordinary clarity that the unwanted ones can be effortlessly removed at will. For example, when you experience your anger from a distance - the anger subsides on its own. It must because that's how the mind is wired. Likewise when experiencing any goal from a sufficient distance - the goal must be achieved! "YOUR MIND CONTROLS YOUR DESTINY; KEEPING YOUR DISTANCE CONTROLS YOUR MIND!" This is the law, power and definition of The Meditation Mindset. Success in all areas of life is your present-moment potential, but until this book, you didn't have the method for living that potential. You're not alone. Only a small percentage of people in the world know the method. Even some world-class achievers and geniuses themselves don't know it. They function as geniuses, but are unconscious of the law or principle behind it. If you asked them the secret of their genius, they'd say it's just hard work. Michelangelo said, "If you knew how much work went into it, you wouldn't call it genius." Einstein said something similar, "Genius is 1% talent and 99% hard work." They were just expressing humility, of course, - a characteristic of genius. Their humility comes from understanding that genius is expressed by the personality but doesn't come from it; it comes from the impersonal, subconscious part of themselves - the source of their unprecedented insight, intellectual ability and creative productivity!
