Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the last mastermind of 2022. Thank you so much to each and every one of you. It's been an amazing year for me, and I can't stop thanking each and every one of you. I'm very emotional as always because of all of you, and I want all of you to know that the year has been amazing for a lot of you in this room. So how many of you feel that this year has been an amazing year for all of you, just give me an A in the chat box. Fantastic, fantastic. Sonali ka, thank you so much. I want this— I want this session to be the most inspiring session for each and every one of you. And before I get into all that, I want all of you to let me know what is it that worked for all of you. What was that one good thing that happened for y'all in 2022? Many things. Just give me one. Fitness, Quantum, joining the community, Quantum, joining DFC, consistency, high level, fitness, joining DFC, Quantum. Wow, this is— the chat box is bad. Meditation, discipline, workout, joining Diamond, joining Quantum and retreat. I met you. That's so sweet. Joining DFC, meeting you, meeting you. Yes, learn to take care of myself. Joining the community started with regular workouts, consistency, mind programming, accountability. Joining DFC, you mental health improved, meditation, knowing about Dinaz, commitment, Diamond membership. Discipline, joining DFC, meeting you, joining D, taking action towards myself, meeting you. Fitness and health, mindfulness, joining the community, you're, you're coming in my life. Self-confidence, DFC made my— may change my life. Learned to make myself a priority. Fantastic. Okay. Seeing your masterclass on Instagram. Yes, to be part of the wonderful community. Self-care. What else? Career improvement. Joining DFC and lucky to get D-Life. Fantastic, fantastic. So I started this in 2019 with just a handful of people, and mostly most of them from Hyderabad and some from Vijayawada. And some of them are today our Diamond members from 2019. And then I went into 2020 on Feb 18th, Feb 19th is when I've had my first webinar. And I had people coming to the 5-day WhatsApp. I had people coming to the webinar and people started coming in. Okay, the journey for me has been, uh, a big roller coaster, as you can well imagine. Online is the— it was the need of the hour in 2020, but yet people were resisting. People did not know how to go about with Zoom. I was struggling with, with, uh, with technology that time. I did not have Hiral and Simi as my buddies to help me out. It was a struggle. And trying to, you know, connect a webcam to Zoom, or sometimes the AirPods would give way, sometimes my audio wouldn't come, and in the workouts I would get very rattled. The journey was very rocky for me initially, but I told myself that giving up is not an option, and I just kept going, just kept going because of my mission. And I want all of you to know that it's the end of 2020, 21, 22, 3 years. Actually, it is 4 years. It's 4 years flat since I'm doing what I'm doing. And despite all the challenges that I have faced at any stage of my funnel, I have never given up. I have never stopped smiling and telling myself that it's okay. There's another day. So giving up has never been an option. I've learned a lot of lessons, and one thing I have learned is to be a lifelong learner. The two— I, I'm going to share with you all 22 things that worked for me in 2022, but I can only tell you all one thing, that giving up has never been an option, and that reaching out to people and that mission going deeper— I can tell you that I have not even scratched the surface when I tell you all that I'm on a mission. When I see a group of 10,000 people going live with me, that is the day I will tell myself that yes, my mission is somewhere now waking up and is coming true. But it's about being faithful with the people who are there. So today you all are there in my life. You all are there to listen to me and to stand by me and to believe in me and to trust me with the process. And that gave me the self-confidence. There's something that I have always wanted to do, and it's also all about fighting our own fears. How many of you feel that you always need to fight your own fears? Give me an F in the chat box. And, and I'm very, very happy to share that one of my biggest fears was How does one— when I'm doing a master class, how does one go live on Facebook or YouTube, or how does it really happen? Okay, and today I told myself, even if I mess up completely, I'm still going to go live. So as we are speaking right now, we are also live on YouTube. So, you know, guys, I just want you to understand that giving up has never been an option for me. The reason I'm successful is if one way, if I don't work, if one thing doesn't work out, I'll go find another way. And I never let ego come in the way. I pick up the phone and I call somebody who knows, or I go join a course which is going to help me. So I have not joined any course on YouTube, uh, going live on YouTube. I told myself that today is the day I'm gonna do it. So I found a way, and today, last Mastermind of 2022, we are not only live on Zoom, we are also— I think you can see it— that we are also live on YouTube today. And that itself is a big breakthrough. And the reason I share my breakthroughs with all of you is my one and only goal. It's not about talking about myself to you. My one and only goal is to share my fears, to share my mindset, so that you get the right breakthroughs, so that you get inspired. My only and only goal is to inspire you so that you are super successful in all areas of your life. When I started this community I, you know, before I started this community, there have been times when I would be on Facebook and, you know, a few years back, and I'm sure it's there even today, Weight Watchers— there was something called Weight Watchers, and I had briefly joined their Facebook page or something like that, and I used to see thousands of people over there interacting and And I used to always wonder that, I wonder who the admins are, or I wonder who does this belong to? Are these things really possible? And that day, I want you all to know that I didn't even aspire to do it because I did not even think that something like that would be a real thing in my world. I didn't think that. And when I started the Facebook community, I thought I'll be lucky if I get one post in a day. And today, at the end of the day, I, I cannot even catch up with the kind of posts that are coming in. And Padma is showing me that she's already posting something over there. Fantastic. So It's, it's never-ending. This world that is there in front of us has so much to offer. So you should not live in the small space that you are in. I want you to understand that there is a lot out there. You have to aspire and you have to get it. When you aspire you will get it. But if you don't have that aspiration to want it, you will never ever have it. So how many of you, starting from today, are going to start aspiring? Give me an A in the chat box. You need— you want to get something, and you will do all that it takes, whether it is lose weight, whether it is your business, whether it is your career, whether it's to have really good relationships. The more you aspire, the more you'll be able to achieve your goals. Fantastic. So as we come close to 2022 I'm going to share the 22 things that have worked for me, that I have understood in 2022. Okay, number 1: it's never too late to start all over again and to redefine who you are. You need to understand what you want to achieve in your life. Age is only a number. When I was in my 30s, I was told, when you come to your 40s, just watch it, you'll put on weight like anything. When I was in my 40s, I was told by people, just wait till you come to your 50s. And 50s came. And I have been successful in managing and maintaining my weight from that many years. And if you think that it's too late, it's never too late. You have to aspire to get— achieve something. In order for you to achieve something, you need to redefine the person you are and pick up your threads and say, come what may, I will achieve it. When you tell yourself, come what may, I will achieve it, then definitely you'll achieve it. So that is the most important thing in your own life. Number 2, your state of mind is your choice. When you wake up in the morning, it's your choice to put the snooze button and go back to sleep. It's your choice to wake up in the morning and say, wow, what a wonderful day, and tell yourself that, wow, I'm going to be the best version of my life today. So every single day you aspire to become the best version of your life, and when you become the best version of your life The sky is the limit. So it's your state of mind that determines what you want to achieve and how you want to achieve it and whether or not you will 100% achieve it. Number 3, the friends that you choose are like family. So choose your friends very carefully. The whole world cannot be your friends. Those of— those who were your friends 10 years ago might have moved on, or you might have moved on. Don't hold on to them. Don't hold on to the people that don't belong in your life. And today, if you want to— if you want to socialize, or if you want to interact with people, find just a small lot of people 3, 4 that are your friends, and other than that, it's okay just to go for a quick coffee once a month or once in 2, 3 months. Keep yourself as less available to the world. Number 4, sometimes you might want to disconnect to reconnect. If something is not working for you, let's take the example of diets, workouts, all that's not working for you. Sometimes you want to just back off, stop everything and restart. Sometimes when something's not working for you, go out for a 2-day trip. Or switch off everything from your place of work. For me, the best way to reboot is to go into the jungle because guaranteed my phone will not work there. Phones are not allowed in the jungle and my phone will not work there. I'll have minimal WhatsApp only in the lunch break and in the evenings. And in these 4 days, I realized that when I disconnected with everything, I came back really feeling fresh. So disconnect and reconnect and find yourself, find yourself again. Number 5: You need way less than what you think you do. Try to lead a powerful life and yet a minimalistic life. I am a, I'm a minimalistic by nature now since the past, maybe I would say more than 5 years for sure. So lead a minimalistic life and yet aspire for powerful things. Have a few things but have really powerful things. And minimalism does not mean that you're stingy. People who are minimalistic are comfortable with just a few things that they have. Number 6: Travel will be your greatest teacher. The grass is always greener on the side that you water it. So don't look at me and say that, oh, she's lucky. I'm not lucky. I created my own destiny. I sowed a seed and I watered my own plants. I sowed a seed in my mind 5 years back and I water my own plants. When I want to grow, I sow another seed and I continue watering this plant, and I sow another seed and I water this plant. And I continue. But the grass is greener on my side because I'm watering it every day. So you need to sow that seed today, or by the end of this year. What do you want to achieve, and how do you want to achieve it? And I had already taken a decision that I'll do at least one good holiday in a year, and at the end of that one holiday, on the last day, I will decide, plan, and prepare my next holiday. And I've already planned and prepared my next holiday. It's that seed that you sow. Now, if it is an expensive holiday, I am not questioning myself, but how— I have no doubts. Now, all I have done is yesterday I have sowed the seed of where I'm going next. And I'm going to start watering that plant. That is the level of confidence and conviction that you need to work. That is why even though this is a weight loss program, but by the time you come to Diamond and Quantum, everything changes completely. And that is why I tell you all, don't take so much time for weight loss. Dinas Fitness has a lot to offer to all of you. Number 7: Find things that you are bad at and then do them often. If you're not good in writing, write as many times as you can and you'll become an expert. And that is something that I started in 2022. Up until 2021, I told myself that I'm not good at writing. I'm not good at— I used to beg my family to write even one paragraph for me. I used to beg because I told myself that I'm not good at writing. And then one day I took a decision that I will start sending out emails and I will create my own email. And that I will create my own email. So the sky is the limit. Sow that seed. Number 8: Your health is your most important asset. If you don't feel well even for a single day your productivity in the day will come down. How many of you agree with me that your productivity will come down if you don't feel well? Give me a P in the chat box. So therefore, it's super important for you to take 100% care of your own health. Number 9: Small habits make all the difference. Before I, I changed, and I changed, I changed a lot in 2021. And I'm— my change in 2022 was a quantum leap on myself. The way I worked on myself was a quantum leap. And in order to get that quantum leap, I created small good habits. The small good habits Were done every day, every single day. And if I didn't do it on a Sunday, I would tell myself that I'm not doing this because I'm supplementing it with something different which is productive. Up until 2022, I used to always look a lot outside of me. Thinking I am not good enough. But I worked on myself internally tremendously, and I'm sure that those of you who are here since 2020 will be definitely noticing a quantum leap in the way I present myself. From the confidence to the work to technology to workouts to the confidence with which I present myself in the workout. It's not easy for an offline trainer to suddenly become a digital coach. It's not easy, but you can do it. If I can do it, You can do it too. Number 10 is be kind. People are craving for love. You are craving for love. Your family members are craving for love. Your children are craving for love. Your spouse is craving for love. Stop, take a pause. Hug somebody around you and tell them, "I love you." Those 3 words will not change their lives alone, but it'll change your life. It'll bring in way more joy in your life than you can even imagine. Okay, is it— am I back? Am I back? Yeah, so I just lost my net. And now I've logged in from my 4G. Thank you. Number 12: Your body is a vessel in which you navigate the world. Look after it. I regard my body I regard my body as my own temple. No, I'm live. So regard your own body powerfully, and the most important part of your body is your own confidence levels. How many of you feel in this room that— no, number 11, I'll tell you, number 11 was mindfulness, gratitude, and regular meditation. Number 12, the biggest and the most important part of your body is your confidence levels. Your confidence levels are the most important part, and in order for you to have powerful confidence levels The only and only thing that you need to do is to work on yourself every single day. So some of you were talking about number 11. Number 11 is mindfulness, gratitude, and regular meditation. Number 12 is work on your body every day and work on becoming a super confident person. Number 13: Creativity comes from silence. Those of you who are— who have had one-to-one calls with me, how many of you feel that I'm a good listener? Give me an L in the chat box. Yeah. If you want to transform your own life, you need to zip this. Too much talking and not listening is not good. When, for example, If you're in business, again, if you're in business and if you're making— say, let's take an example of if you are an interior designer. You don't go to your client and tell them, you do this, you do that, you do that. You sit back and you listen to what they want. And you give them what they want. If you're a designer, it's not about yourself or what you can produce. It's about understanding what they want and giving them what they want. And the only way you can do it is when you listen to someone. Okay, so be a good listener. In order to become creative, you can— you have to be silent. To accept help is to accept love and build deeper connections. A lot of people are against— a lot of people are against asking questions or asking for help. When I ask for help, I keep all my guards down. I keep myself absolutely vulnerable. I surrender to that person completely and I ask for help. So just go right all out there and ask for help. That way you will build deeper connections. Number 13, everything begins from the mind. Just the way you brush your teeth every day, clean your mind every day. Keep it pure. Number 14, your gut instinct is your most valuable tool. You know how sometimes we feel I thought I should have done that. That's your gut feeling, the feeling that you have first. Go with the feeling that you have first. It is better than any mentor telling you to do something. Number 15. It's called intuition. Yeah, it's called intuition. Number 15: there are only two things that will happen in your life always. You will either win or you will learn. If you have not won, if you did not win something, then there are lessons that you have to be learning from that. Once you've learned a lesson from what you have lost, you will be able to win again. Number 16: Family is everything. For me, my family is everything. It went In 2022, it went to such an extent that first and foremost, I, I dislike watching movies. I hate it. I just think it's the most boring thing on earth. And then if at all I have to watch a movie, I used to like only Bollywood movies, but in my family no one likes Bollywood movies. So that's gone. It's been years since I watched a Bollywood movie. Now at least in English I would like a family movie, a love story with little children there. I like those stories. Now that also they don't want. The only movie they like is action movie. And I hate action movies. People coming, bashing you up. I mean, how horrible is it? But my values for my family is so high that this year I took a decision that I'll join them and I go After my mastermind, I say, now which next, which Dushyant Deshmukh movie are you watching? Okay, so if your family values are very high, you will do all that it takes to work around them. Number 17, let me tell you That nobody has it figured at all. I haven't figured it all. I've just scratched the surface of my own life. There's loads to explore. I myself, I'm going to dig deeper in life. Number 15 is you either win or you will lose— learn. Number 16 is family is everything. Number 17 is nobody has it figured out. So don't look elsewhere, look within yourself. Number 18: Practice staying in present, in the present. Live in the moment. I wipe out my past seconds in seconds. Guys, and I've always been like that. It's very easy, guys. You know, the only way you can do it is, is to not think about it, because you have something to think about it. Think about right now. Right now you are listening to me. Right now I am talking to you and I am 100% in the moment. Even, even when I go on a holiday, even the 4 days that I went out, it's over the moment I come back. It's, it's over, finished. Not sitting and dreaming about the animals and the tiger and the crocodile. I'm not sitting and doing all that. I'm going bang into the moment. So learn to live in the moment so that you can plan and prepare for the future. And the only thing that you want to think about the past— the only thing that worked for me is I learned from the mistakes of my past, and I did not allow the same mistakes to come in my present. In order to win the game. Number 19: Don't take anything personally. I used to be the most sensitive person on this planet, especially where the family was concerned. And then one day I took a decision The decision was, I'll be the most wanted person. Now, the most wanted person cannot be the most sensitive person because the most wanted person has maximum amount of confidence. So you have to become the most wanted person. Number 20: In 2022, I did not let a day go by. That is why I rewire and reboot in December. I hit it so hard from Jan 1st till December. I never let a day go by. So guys, don't even let a single day go by. Never think twice about investing in yourself. I am where I am today because I've invested tremendous amount of my money on myself to learn from the masters, to learn from the mentor. To be guided on a regular basis. I had even done a high-end speaking course to become a motivational speaker. I invested in myself, and then I realized that authenticity is awesome. The more authentic you are, you just become that best speaker. Before I got into what— I must tell you all that before I got into what I'm doing today, one of the things that I wanted to do was I only wanted to become a motivational speaker. I only wanted to do that. After I came back from Hyderabad to Hyderabad and all that. I want to, I want to, I want to. And I did all that it took, but I did not even get one single gig, speaking gig, not even one. And then I started the community, and today I can tell myself that the seed I sowed in 2020 that I want to be a motivational speaker. Of course I'm a motivational speaker. How many people we have? 152 people in the room, and I speaking to 152 people. In which offline world will we get this opportunity? So it's how you see it, you see, it's how you see it is what you get. 22. And the last one, and this one is for y'all because it worked for me in 2022. Number 21 is never think twice about investing in yourself. Number 22 Your entire life can change with 1 year of focused daily effort. I said focused daily effort. If you put in focused daily effort starting from January 1st December 31st will not be the same. I guarantee this. You can write it down as my personal guarantee. How many of you felt that 2020 22 learnings. Very good for you. Just give me a 22 in the chat box. Fantastic. The last one is, your entire life can change with one year of focused daily effort. Don't worry about what happened in 2022. Sow the seed from today right up till the 31st. I would strongly recommend for those of you who have New Year's party, wind up maximum by 12 o'clock. I will definitely not wish anyone at 12. I'm very sure about that because I will be sleeping at 12 o'clock. I will start my January 1st in prayer and meditation. For sure, not everyone gets opportunities in life. You have several opportunities that are presented in front of you all. I want all of you to pick out the right ones and shine in whatever you all want to do. In whatever you all want to achieve. Think of what you all want, what you have achieved in 2022, and set your stage for 2023. Once you set the stage for 2023, Have a plan and have a goal. If you don't have a plan and if you don't have a goal, you're not going to achieve it. Goals are fine, but where's— show me the plan. You can start your plan with your mind programming and start working on manifesting it first. And slowly and steadily, things will fall into place. I will be back on Jan 2nd for Diamond Mastermind, Jan 3rd for Inner Circle call, and Quantum members, I'll release the date in the, in the WhatsApp groups. All I want all of you to look at is look within yourselves. You are your own diamond. Look within yourself, analyze what is your pattern of your mind, and start, start modeling the people that, that you think are successful. Could be anybody. Start modeling them. See, in your field, if you're a baker, start modeling the people that are successful. What are the things that they have done in order to be successful? And after that, there are no buts and ifs. It will not work out— buts and ifs. I want 2023 to be the best year for each and every one of you, the best year ever. And I want all of you to know that I don't— I really don't want you all to sit there because I hear a lot of silence. Right now from your faces. I see a lot of silence. I hear a lot of silence. And I don't want you all to just be here for today, get motivated, and wake up and do the same things. In order for you to achieve what you have to achieve, you have to do different things. Early on in 2022, I used to work out much more and tire myself out unnecessarily, but I realized there are many, many other things to do. So I stopped working on my body as much as I used to. That gave me the energy and the thought processes to work on other areas of my life. And there is always something or the other that you will want to change. There is always something or the other that you can look forward to. And that is why my strong advice— I've already finished it— my strong advice to each and every one of you is declutter your spaces everywhere. I'm done. My house is done. I'm already done. My house is decluttered. I'll be checking all my office drawers Last time now, in the next 48 hours, and I'm done. Plan and prepare. My 2023 to-do book is already in my drawer, ready, waiting for me. My new pens, my red pen and my black pen with which I write my goals every day, is already here next to me. Ask yourselves tonight, what are the things that you need to change that did not work for you in 2022? And I'll tell you one thing, that one thing that really has helped me is I am over and done with people sending me motivational messages, good morning messages. I'm done with it. So all those groups, I'm over, I'm done with. The only chat that I have extensively is with my Quantum members. And if I get an email and it's, it's other than that, it's over. And when I talk to you all about being present, one of the things that I have noticed with a lot of families and a lot of people is when someone's talking to you You sit on your phone. Don't do that. Create that bond and be that, be that leader in your own home. Nobody said that you needed to be a leader only if you had a business or the CEO of a company. Be the leader of your own home. For you to be the leader of your own home, you have to walk the talk. Once you walk the talk, don't expect others to walk your talk. You continue walking your own talk. Be on your own journey. Others will follow automatically. I did not tell any of you to do anything. All I did was I have walked my talk in last one year. In the 12 months, I've walked my talk, guys, and that itself brought in discipline in your lives. Early on when we started, there were some people who were so indisciplined in the live sessions. They would come in late, pass nasty comments in the chat box, but things have changed. Because positivity spreads very fast, but the only problem is not many people are there to spread it. There are way more people to spread negativity, like gossip spreads very fast, and there are very few people to spread positivity. Hang around those people. If you feel that the DFC community is a positive— how many of you feel that the DFC community is a positive community? Just give me a P in the chat box. Then hang around them, because every person who's in this room today needs your love and affection. It is going to be, it is going to be a wonderful 2023, provided you believe in it. I just want all of you to know that I will not close this room until I've had 148 people messaging me, messaging here, that I want you to believe that 2023 will be your best year. Give me a B in the chat box if you believe that 2023 is going to be your best year. Give me a B in the chat box. Fantastic. Any questions, any notes, you can share it in the chat box. Thank you. Yeah. I want to know about the grain donation, Raji Subramanian says. Yeah, Raji, good question. This community has 5 strong pillars. Pillar number 1, come what may, you will exercise. Pillar number 2 is you will do mindful eating. Pillar number 3 is patience. Pillar number 4 is charity. And for charity, as a community, we are giving away grains. So every month, 1-2 kgs, whatever you want, give it away to the support staff or people around you. And when you give it away, wish them good luck, good health, and good health will prevail back in your own life. And pillar number 4 is gratitude. Wake up every day and say thank you to your body at least once a day. How to set achievable goals? In order to set achievable goals, you set smaller goals and then you write a to-do list every day. And we have 9,214 kgs. Amazing! Thank you. So before the year ends, if you have not done your grain donation, please go out there and do your grain donation. In fact, um, Hiral, can you just check the response sheet and see whether I filled up for— I seem to be doing and I'm not filling up. Let me know if I filled up for November and December. Okay, yeah, if you have not reported it, go report it. It's just a good feeling. 5 pillars, come what may, you're going to exercise every day. Pillar number 2, mindful eating. Pillar number 3, patience. Pillar number 4, charity. Pillar number 5, gratitude. Fantastic. On that note, ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to express my deep gratitude to each and every one of you. For coming into this masterclass today, for giving me the opportunity to spread goodness, to spread health, to spread vitality, to spread positivity. By making a change in your life, I'm actually first making a change in my own life, for which I'm truly grateful. I pray and wish that 2023 explodes for each and every one of you. Don't think about the things that you did not do. Start thinking about the things that you're going to do in 2023 and make that your best year. I've been around for many years and I'll be around for many more years, and I want each and every one of you to be super active in the community. I want each and every one of you to care for somebody else. I want each and every one of you to help that person who needs you, and I want each and every one of you to have a wonderful, a really and truly inspiring, wonderful 2023, where this chat box, you'll come back the next year, same time next year, and you are going to come and share the things that have, have worked for you all, the transformations that you all have had in all 4 areas: health, relationships, career, and money. I know that money is a big thing for a lot of you, and I want all of you to know that there's plenty out there. Plant that seed and start working towards it, and the sky is the limit. In order for you to earn a lot of money, you have to really look after your health. You have to look after your relationships and allow the flow of abundance to come into your lives. I wish each and every one of you a very happy New Year. Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year. I will be seeing your life for the next 2 days, but once again 2023 is going to explode for each and every one of you. On that positive note, thank you, thank you, and thank you. See you tomorrow morning live at 7 AM.
