Click here to inquire regarding the Sandy MacGregor seminars and other life changing information.
Some time ago Mike Cotter interviewed Reg Wells, who was having a tough time and had to borrow money to attend Sandy MacGregor’s seminar in Perth at the time.
A short time after the seminar he sent a note to Sandy which in part said:
“My business has absolutely rocketed over the past 3 months since doing your seminar.”
Reg became a highly successful Financial Planner and since that seminar, it became a case of success upon success for Reg.
Mike’s lengthy interview with Reg was fascinating and here are a few interesting points:-
1. Over the years he had been to a host of seminars, including Anthony Robbins, Tom Hopkins, John Keogh, Bob Proctor – all of which he found enjoyable but not life-changing.
2. In his words: “I went to a ‘promo’ of Sandy’s CALM Life Skills Seminar (available on CDs, DVDs plus a Workbook) and I liked his ‘laid back style’ without the “Rah Rah”. I thought, why not go, I’m broke, what have I got to lose. As I look back on it now I’d hate to think where I’d be today, had I not gone.
3. Sandy’s seminar pulled it all together for me, and because he limits the number of seminar participants, you feel involved and you soon learn you’re dealing with a genuine guy with a real life-improving and life-changing message. For me it was the weekend that turned my life around.”
Mike asked Reg
Of all the things he got out of Sandy’s seminar, what 3 things had the biggest impact on his phenomenal rise from the ashes?
“First would be the system I learned for tapping into my own creativity.
Second would be the simple exercises for getting my left and right brain constantly communicating with each other. Whole brain learning I think it’s called.
Third is Sandy’s fantastic method that enables you to achieve your goals up to 8 times faster. And I’m living proof that this works.”
Reg is also a marathon runner, and he used the same methods to significantly improve his times. So whatever your sporting activity is, you can also look forward to improved performance.
Reg attributes his success to the daily practice of the techniques he learnt from attending Sandy MacGregor’s Seminar.
Two specific things (from the seminar) he does at the start of each day
The first one is a simple exercise for around 60-120 seconds that switches on his left and right brain, which he says “makes me feel more confident, more creative and gives me an energy lift.”
Whilst what Reg says is fact, the medical/scientific reason for doing this is that for memory to be enhanced, scientists have proven that Left/Right brain communication take place.
The left side of the brain is commonly referred to as the ‘analytical’ and the right side the ‘creative’. (Much of what we know about these two sides stems from the work of 1981 Nobel Prize winner, Dr Roger Sperry, the great neuropsychologist and neuro-biologist in USA.)
One important thing to know is that the ‘creative’ side works 40 to 400 times faster than the ‘analytical’ side, and in each of us, one side is usually dominant.
Hence the excitement builds when you realise that accelerated learning comes … when you can get both sides working together as a team.
How? It’s easy!
You just do certain exercises as prescribed by a certified Kinesiologist. (Kinesiology means the study of motion, in particular the study of how muscles act and co-ordinate the body.)
One such exercise designed to integrate the brain is called the ‘lazy-eight.’ This activity trains your brain to switch between left and right sides easily.
It’s a simple and fantastic way to start each day, and it’s also great to use if you’re feeling tired or if you want a spark of Creativity before approaching any task, such as designing, writing, inventing something or problem solving.
Lazy-Eight
Stand up. Point your finger toward the wall and fix your eyes on it. Follow your finger with your eyes, without moving your head.
First draw a circle to the right, then draw one to the left. Then one to the right and one to the left again. See how your finger crosses over in the ‘middle’, and you are drawing a figure of the figure eight lying on its side. Hence the name, ‘lazy-eight.’
Always make sure you go ‘up’ across the middle of the eight. That way your energy is taken up and increased.Now start making the circle bigger and bigger. Finally, join both hands together and really swing into it. Move your whole body, swaying and rocking and bending your knees and hips.So there you have it. A 30 to 60 second exercise that’s guaranteed to Switch-On your whole brain, give you an energy lift, and spark your creativity.
All you have to do is…. do it.
Another important thing that Reg does is the 8 Step Goal System for achieving goals faster – this takes about 30 seconds for each goal.
Some more Proof
Apart from Reg’s story there’s nothing like a couple of others to back it up. Here is one for keen golfers.
There was a lady who attended Sandy’s CALM Life Skills Seminar (available on CDs, DVDs plus a Workbook), and on her return home was greeted by her father, who was on his way to play 18 holes of golf. This lady’s father was a total sceptic about any worthwhile benefit she would receive from the seminar, but curiously inquired ”Did you learn anything that might help me on the golf course?”
She thought for a moment and then told her father about switching on the brain and the ‘lazy-eight’ exercise. Somewhat scoffingly he said “Nar, that’s not for me,” and went off to play golf.
After 12 holes his scorecard was looking terrible, and he was about to give up in disgust, when he remembered what his daughter had told him. Still believing the exercise would have no benefit, he decided to do it anyway. And this he did before each of the remaining six holes.
The result …. he birdied all six holes…!!!
And Even More Proof
And just to increase the proof even further, here’s a snippet from an interview Mike did with a wonderful lady, a people trainer:
I was training adults who had been on the dole for four years and all were pretty rough around the edges.
On one occasion I had 40 guys, all retrenched wharfies, who didn’t have the slightest interest in what I was teaching and they told me so, every single day for six months.
Then one day I decided – Right, I’m going to get them up doing the Lazy-Eight. Naturally they all grumbled and complained that they weren’t there to do exercise, but I just insisted.
WOW, you wouldn’t believe the change that came over these 40 guys, it really got them switched on, and the mood change was just sensational.
And after a while I asked them to look around the room at each other, because 40 grim faces had turned into 40 smiling faces. It was amazing!
So My Friends, I hope those stories are enough to inspire you to do the Lazy-Eight two or three times a day, especially at times of irritation, frustration or a mental block. Do it, and you’ll be amazed at the results.
All the best
Sandy
