A speaker argues that lasting personal change happens in altered states like hypnosis, where people can shift their internal mental maps and emotional responses. He calls his technique "e-cubing" and claims that within fifteen minutes, entertainment and emotional experience can open people to deeper learning. He says we're drowning in information but starving for wisdom.

Most change, I find lasting change always happens in an altered state. An altered state of consciousness? Well, you could call it hypnosis. Have you ever seen people go to an elevator and push the button that's already lit up? If you got a dollar for everyone, you'd be rich. Or you're even driving your car, and then all of a sudden something gets you fixated and then you wake up and go, who the hell's been driving the car? Right. People go into trans state. Trans just means you're more internal than external. So I utilize that. I let them go to their internal wall and enrich their maps. And then once they have an understanding the co and they start seeing the emotional consequences. Now we have them do something while they're there. I call it e cubing. I'm able to hold people that length because I believe people want to be entertained first in the world today. We're not in the information age. It's over. It died. There's too much information. We're drowning in information, starving for wisdom. So what people want is entertainment. So I earned the right by entertainment, by making them laugh, cry, move them so much that people didn't think they're going to be the people like this. Right? Yeah. In a matter of 15 minutes, that's all changed so radically. So now I can have the right to educate them.
