Vishen Lakhiani (founder/representative) outlines Mindvalley’s strategic shift toward higher-quality programs after cutting roughly 90% of offerings, highlights new flagship programs (e.g., The M Word, Lifebook, Wildfit, Energy Medicine), and announces MindvalleyU — an in-person alternative to four-year colleges launching in Barcelona. He frames a major problem: low online-course completion rates (reported under 10%) and describes a year-long R&D push (computer scientists, engineers, UX experts) to build a new tech platform aiming to increase completion rates by 500%. The platform was piloted with over 10 students since December and will be unveiled publicly in seven days; many programs will be offered free. He closes with a CTA asking viewers to comment "it's my time" to get early access info.

So some of you might remember that huge announcement we made in January where we made a commitment to cut 90% of our programs here on the Minddabi Academy because we wanted to focus on the very best. And many of you who are in the know have already noticed the results of that focus. Our newest programs emerging, such as the M Word, Lifebook, Wildfit, Energy Medicine, have set a new standard for what we typically provide. But you know what? We're not even done yet. So. So last month Mindvalley unveiled a competitor to four year colleges, MindvalleyU. That's happening in Barcelona this year. We are so excited about that project. But mindvalley is a fairly large group of people right now. Almost 200 of us from 40 different countries. And that's not the only thing we are working on. We're looking at another major challenge that we want to fix when it comes to education and that is online courses. You see, online courses today are a multi billion dollar industry. But here's the problem. Completion rates on online courses are notoriously low, some say less than 10%. So for the last one year, we've been applying our brains. We've been hiring computer scientists, engineers, UX experts, people who are trained in building engagement and designing curriculums with the goal of figuring out how can we improve completion rates on online courses by 500. Let that sink in. I'm not talking about doubling it. I'm Talking about a 500% improvement in completion rates so that our students actually get phenomenal results. They actually are so engaged in these courses that their lives changed. And this is where we're going to go next. So this month we're going to be unveiling a new technology, a new tech platform that we've already tested out on over 10 students since December. But now we're opening it up and we're gonna be bringing it to the world with the sole idea of changing the way online learning works and taking that to the next level. Many of these programs are also going to be completely free. We want to get this out to as many people as possible. So I can't wait to share this with you. All you got to do. If you want to know more, if you're excited about this, just comment below this video, comment with the line it's my time and you will get a message that will ensure that you're on a list to be first to know when we unveil this new technology seven days from now. Thank you and comment below.
