I love this movie for its purity, and for its multitude of messages. From the child who chooses the "no bullshit, what would it take" approach and puts in the work to earn the attention from the love of his life, to the couples overcoming hardship, to all the different ways people fall in and out of love, this movie has tiny bits of mindset hidden throughout the whole show. And man, the airport scene makes me tear up every damn time.

That's right, Master Kim Jung Gi himself has just signed on with Impact Theory Comics !! For those of you who don't know, Impact Theory shares the same vision as Mindsettertainment , so for them to have added the choice talent of Master Kim is a massive step in the right direction. Rock on, Tom !

In martial arts, it is often said that a white belt is worth more than a yellow. The reason for this is that STARTING is much harder than maintaining one's martial journey in the early days.  (Not to derail, but blue and black belts are also worth considerable amounts). This movie is all about taking baby steps towards one's goal.  That starting, despite not having a perfect picture, all the cards in their place, or any other excuse we tend to create to do our passionate goals "later." What about Bob is funny, entertaining and... a great kick in the ass for those who might need to get started on something. Favorite line:  "Take a vacation... from my problems!"

"How to win friends and influence people" summed up... in a bucket. This beautiful children's book explains in amazing clarity the concept of building others up rather than tearing them down - about the motivations behind "bucket dippers" who are actually only trying to "fill their own bucket" by tearing down others... and how that doesn't work. It explains the the children how when you "fill another's bucket" you fill your own as well - about how making others feel good ends up making you feel good. This simplistic view of state management is amazingly effective and providing useful tools of communication for children. When a child is grumpy, you can say "do you have an empty bucket?" and they will think "hmm... whose bucket could I fill up to improve my mood...?" Self soothing is one of the key ingredients to a successful life.  To learn that helping others is a key factor in helping yourself?  Ditto...

Tony Robbins uses something called "The Dickens Method" to help us visualize our likely future based upon our current habits and practices... and then to visualize our ideal future, and work backwards into daily habits and practices that will result in that future. Obviously, he got the name from Charles Dickens. But hey, Scrooged gets the point across in a funny, entertaining, poignant way. When it was geologically feasible, I watched this movie with my Mom every year.  It is the epitome of christmas movies, but it's also a great reminder that our habits forge our futures. As with most mindsettertainment , being emotionally present within the media helps.  We can all hear the words "visualize a better future" but this movie helps show us what level of emotion to put into it. What is our "ah hah" moment?  Does it take a burning coffin or Bobcat with a shotgun to get the point into our thick skulls?  We'll see! Favorite line:  "N...

Grand Admiral Thrawn is the epitome of the growth mindset, and in many ways reminds me of Tom Bilyeu with his drive to learn all that he can about his target, creative approach, and extreme loyalty to his people, his company, and the growth mindset. Thrawn goes as far as to decapitate those with a fixed mindset, and promote those with a growth mindset and has a uniquely artistic and studious approach to warfare which he very nearly conquers the rebellion. Favorite Line: "Anyone can make an error, ensign.  But that error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it."

Peaceful warrior is very focused on enjoying the journey, and living one's passion. Many of us start with "goals" which are actually meant to be benchmarks or targets.  The most common example are fitness goals.  "I will lose 10lbs" is a TERRIBLE GOAL. Why? Because once you've attained that goal... what do you do?  You cease trying to attain that goal.  What happens?  You backslide back to the previous weight. What if instead, our goal was to develop the daily habits which would result in maintaining a healthy weight? Peaceful warrior is about taking your eyes off the prize, and putting them into the joyous process that will result in that prize. Favorite line:  "The rock." Note:  The books that this movie are based on are also very interesting, and very different.
