One of our favorites on our blog is Tynan. You might know Tynan from his role in the Neil Strauss book – The Game as “Herbal”. Since then Tynan has branched out into living life as all sorts of awesome.
Check out this video on why it’s important to take risks and why not taking risks will kill you.

It’s the little things in life that make the biggest difference.
We work hard, go to school, meet the right person (or wrong person) and get married. We believe we have control over our lives, that it is all self directed, I’m going to disagree.
We have control in the situations we are put in, absolutely and I believe ultimately we have the freedom to choose in any situation. What I don’t believe is that we have control over the little things in our lives that can make wild changes in our direction.
Earlier this year, a friend of mine was in Africa. While there she took a 2 day trip to the Indian Ocean, I advised her to stay an extra day and relax. She refused, stating that she needed to get back to her work and didn’t really need the extra time off, we bickered back and forth till finally she decided to stay an extra day. For what it was worth I’m not sure why I argued with her so much about staying longer, it really had no bearing on me and wasn’t really that much of a deal. The next day she awoke to learn that this was the bus she was supposed to be on.

Over half of the passengers were killed, including all of the people in the front of the bus, where her seat had been reserved.

The Zone
By: Apex
“Suddenly I was nearly two seconds faster than anybody else, including my team mate with the same car. And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension. It was like I was in a tunnel.” –Aryton Senna, 3-time Forumla 1 World Champion
There’s a feeling that everyone has. It is difficult to experience, and even harder to describe. It’s that moment where everything you do is almost supernatural – things happen before you make them happen, all your goals seem to achieve themselves, and you can’t be stopped. This is your flow, your zone, your state.
It’s amazing when it happens. You’re on top of the world and you can’t be stopped. Everything you set out to do seems to happen on its own, beyond your control. You’re operating at full throttle, but it seems like you can accomplish so much more. You’re a passenger on the ride to success, but you reap all the rewards. You’re “in the zone” and you can’t be stopped. Read the rest of this entry »

The success gurus would argue that most extremely successful people have at least one thing in common: they think outside the box. Tim Ferris would go further and say that they ACT outside the box.
Every time you do something that is outside of your comfort zone, you grow as a person. Your sphere of what you’re afraid of shrinks, and you gain a confidence and adaptability that you didn’t have before.
In The 4-Hour Workweek, Timothy Ferris talks about acting outside the box and how to gradually step outside your comfort zone, and even assigns Comfort Challenges to his readers. Here are two from his book you can try to get used to not acting like everyone else:

“Success leaves clues”
This simple quote changed my life.
I remember hearing Tony Robbins’ say this in his Personal Power II audio series, on my mp3 player. I was driving my motorcycle on a small back road in Vietnam, focusing on weaving in between the herd of water buffalo, so it didn’t really register when I heard it.

We’ve all been been trying to remember a song title, a movie name, etc. After searching your active memory you give up and state:
“It’ll come to me”
Have you ever thought about that process? You just completely drop a subject and an hour or so later your subconscious mind delivers the answer to the tip of your tongue…
“Highway to the Danger Zone”
“What?” your friends reply
“That song I was trying to remember earlier, it’s called Highway to the Danger Zone, Kenny Loggins sang it, and it’s from the Top Gun Soundtrack”
Let’s stop and think about this process for a moment, you think of a problem, you ask yourself what the solution is and then it escapes your conscious thought where it descends into the mechanics of your subconscious. You might go to the gym, have an important meeting or have sex, things that are far removed from that issue and then as if someone tapped you on the head with the magic wand or memory you instantly know what answer is.
