We hope you can take some nuggets away from these powerful people, if you have the time to listen to them.
Bob Proctor, one of the most legendary figures in personal development
He was a coach, mentor, successful speaker and the author of the New York Times bestseller You were born rich.
As a young man, in the 1960s, Bob had low self-confidence and little ambition. His prospects of success were clouded. Until one day when Napoleon Hill’s Think and grow rich fell into his lap. It was the first book he had ever read and it changed his life forever. He began applying the book’s teachings and soon enough, he was earning more money and was being successful.
Eckhart Tolle
Eckhart Tolle explores presence, thinking, and spirituality to help you understand what presence means, how thinking and non-acceptance drive a lot of human pain, and how to live a life that reduces suffering.
His teachings focus on the significance and power of Presence, the awakened state of consciousness, which transcends ego and discursive thinking. Eckhart sees this awakening as the essential next step in human evolution.
Jordan Peterson
Dr Jordan B Peterson is a Professor of Psychology & Clinical Psychologist. As for who he is, I’d suggest listening to some of his lectures, reading his book 12 Rules for Life and deciding for yourself.
Please look into this yourself. People who characterise him as alt right and try to smear him because members of the alt right like his work are dishonest and will not give you an accurate representation of Dr. Peterson’s character. I (Alex) personally think he is a really great man, but that’s because his work really helped me to sort my life out. I will not claim he has never made any mistakes, but considering how much of his work is on the internet he has a remarkably low number of slip ups.
Simon Sinek
Simon Sinek is a leadership expert and author of multiple best-sellers including “Leader Eat Last,” “Start with Why,” and most recently, “The Infinite Game.” He is also famous for his 2009 TED Talk, “How Great Leaders Inspire Action,” which remains the third most watched TED Talk of all time with nearly 50 million views. Sinek’s writing focuses on how leaders can inspire cooperation, trust and change. He has been fascinated with how leaders and organizations can change the world and continues to write on patterns of thinking, acting and communicating in the most successful ways.

Alan Watts
A prolific author and speaker, Alan Watts was one of the first to interpret Eastern wisdom for a Western audience. Born outside London in 1915, he discovered the nearby Buddhist Lodge at a young age. After moving to the United States in 1938, Alan became an Episcopal priest for a time, and then relocated to Millbrook, New York, where he wrote his pivotal book The Wisdom of Insecurity: A Message for an Age of Anxiety. In 1951 he moved to San Francisco where he began teaching Buddhist studies, and in 1956 began his popular radio show, “Way Beyond the West.”
“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”
