Hi, everyone. Thank you for your interest in Dennis Waitley's new psychology of Winning. So I have a list of questions here from our audience for people who are very interested in enrolling in this course, but want to know a little bit more. What I'm going to do. This video is answer your biggest questions. So the first question is, how is this different from the original Psychology of Winning course? So first off, I'm sure you heard the original Psychology of Winning course by Dennis Waitley broke records. It did something like 2 million copies, which is phenomenal for any sort of audio program. But as to how this is different, a number of reasons. The first thing you got to realize is that it's been three decades since the original course. Dennis, like all great teachers, he learns more. He upgrades his ideas, he upgrades his wisdom. And in three decades, you can bet Dennis Waitley has taken on a lot of new ideas. So what we've done here is we've worked with Dennis in the flash, filmed him and created the new psychology of Winning. Some of the principles are available in the old course, but this is almost three decades worth of additional wisdom, additional ideas. Now that's just one. The second thing about this is firstly, it's in video. The original course was purely audio. It's significantly longer than the original course and it's built on mindvalley's Quest platform, which is one of the highest performing learning platforms in the world in terms of transforming students lives, getting students engaged, and really making a difference in your lives. So Quest itself adds a whole new layer of behavioral psychology, of learning experience, design. On top of Dennis already incredible wisdom. So you get a far more remarkable transformation than an audio course from 30 years ago. Now the next question is, I'm fairly advanced in my personal growth journey. Will this course still apply for me? Yes. The answer is Dennis stands out because of his extensive experience, his extensive work. I mean, he trained NASA astronauts who you bet are probably personal growth junkies, pretty advanced in terms of their development. He trained people at large blue chip companies like Microsoft, and he's so in demand that the last time I called up Dennis, he was speaking to some 18,000 salespeople, motivating them and teaching them how to advance their careers, I guess in a stadium somewhere. He's on the board of directors for the first American university in China, the president of the Whateley Institute for Leadership in China, and. And his knowledge has now been applied to General Electric, Dell att, Citigroup, IBM, Toyota Prudential and Mercedes Benz. So this guy has some crazy Powerful stuff that companies are loving and are bringing to their employees. And I'm sure you're going to gain from this as well. Now, this question is the quest seems really long. Will I have time for it all? Well, it is long. If you consider 82 days long, then I guess that is long. But what you need to know is, is that it's not about the length of the days. You see, when it comes to building up habits and truly changing your behaviors and character, sometimes you have to stretch out behaviorism over a certain number of days or months. In this case, Dennis selected 82 days. There's a reason for that. Every day, though, you're not spending hours on it. You're spending anywhere from three minutes to 20 minutes on a lesson on an idea. But the reason it's spaced out is because even a three minute video builds up on a behavioral element that we want you to implement that day. You see, we care about your transformation and we know that we can give you a 10 hour course that you could watch in one weekend and you'll gain some insights. But it's not going to cause a lifelong change. Quest is designed for far deeper, far more ingrained, far more sustainable changes. And the way we do it is by stretching out the learning, in this case over 82 days. But again, it's just minutes a day now because it's just minutes a day. This isn't going to take away from your gym workout or even if you're on another mindvalley quest. It's just minutes a day. So you can listen to this in your commute, you can listen to this while you're shopping or while you're on the treadmill. But every day we're building up new behaviors, new characters. We're giving in you the new psychology of winning so that in everything you do in life, you're absolutely acing it. And the final question is, how has this program been upgraded? Well, other than updating all the filming, adding new ideas, creating essentially what is a new psychology of winning and putting it on mindvalley Quest. The methodology of learning here is very different. For example, students don't start on their own. You start as a group with other students, the program starts and ends on a specific day. And what happens is all the students, thousands of them, are connected with each other in a group, a Facebook group, group, and through the app, through the Apple TV and the iWatch and all the other systems on which you can access mindvalley Quest. We learn together and then we discuss, we connect together. So you're not going through this alone now. As a result, we found that by adding in this quality of community, people have far deeper, greater, longer lasting transformations. And as a bonus, they make really, really, really cool threads. So I hope you enjoyed this Q and A. I'll see you in Dennis Waking's program.
