“Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.” – Jim Rohn

One Minute NLP – Association

Association in NLP is about fully stepping into an experience, feeling it as if you are living it right now. Imagine a moment when you felt truly happy or successful. Now, close your eyes and relive it — see what you saw, hear what you heard, and feel what you felt.

This technique helps you tap into positive emotions and resourceful states. For instance, if you are preparing for a big presentation, you can associate with a time when you felt confident and energised. By immersing yourself in that memory, you bring those feelings into the present moment.

It’s like charging your emotional battery with the energy and mindset you need. Association helps you access your best self quickly, making it a powerful tool for motivation, confidence, and peak performance.

Meta Magic – Are you spending your gold?

Bholaram heaved a sigh of relief as he finished counting his gold coins. This was his daily ritual before going to bed. Every evening, he used to go to his farm, and take out hidden gold coins buried inside and count them and keep them back.

Strangely enough, Bhola never spent a single coin. He was content merely with the act of counting them daily.

One evening, a passing thief noticed Bhola engrossed in counting his treasure. The thief decided that as soon as Bhola retired for the night, he would steal the gold.

The next day turned out to be a bitter one for Bhola. The coins were gone, and he was left regretting his choice of never using the gold at the right time.

When his neighbours gathered to console him, they couldn’t help but ask why he had buried the gold outside instead of keeping it safely indoors. Bhola replied, “I thought no one would suspect the gold being hidden outside, so I avoided keeping it inside.”

Our learnings — whether from books or courses — are much like those gold coins.

Are you someone who hides your learnings, never putting them to use? Or are you the one who embraces and applies them, truly savouring their value?

Hook From The Book

“The only way we can change our lives is to change our energy — to change the electromagnetic field we are constantly broadcasting. In other words, to change our state of being, we have to change how we think and how we feel.” ― Joe Dispenza, Becoming Supernatural: How Common People are Doing the Uncommon

Movie Motivation

“What we do in life echoes in eternity” This line quoted by Maximus in the movie Gladiator reminds us that our actions have consequences that decide our destiny.

How Do You Eat an Elephant? One Bite at a Time.

by Mehernosh Randeria | Dec 23, 2024 | W3 Blog

“How Do You Eat an Elephant? One Bite at a Time.”

It’s a curious phrase, isn’t it? The thought of eating an elephant may seem absurd, even overwhelming. But, of course, it’s not about literally devouring a mammoth creature. It’s a metaphor for tackling those enormous tasks or seemingly insurmountable challenges that life throws our way. And the wisdom within this quirky saying? You do it step by step, bit by bit, one bite at a time.

Life often feels like a series of elephant-sized hurdles. Perhaps it’s a daunting work project, the pursuit of a personal dream, or even rebuilding your life after a major setback. When you look at the whole picture, it’s easy to feel paralysed. You might think, “Where do I even begin?”

The answer lies in breaking it down—taking that first small bite.

Start With a Plan

Imagine standing before a giant buffet table. If you try to grab everything at once, you’re bound to make a mess. It’s the same with your big goals. The key is to plan. Divide the elephant into manageable portions. Ask yourself:

What’s the first step I can take?
Can I break this down into smaller, achievable tasks?
What does progress look like for today, this week, or this month?

By slicing the task into bite-sized chunks, you turn the impossible into the possible.

Celebrate the Small Wins

As you work through each bite, take a moment to savour it. Achieving even the tiniest milestone deserves recognition. It might be finishing a single paragraph of that novel you’ve always wanted to write, organising your workspace, or sending out that first email to launch your new business.

Acknowledging your progress keeps you motivated and reminds you that, step by step, you’re getting closer to your goal.

Keep Perspective

Sometimes, you might feel like you’re chewing on the same piece for ages, making little progress. It’s important to remember that every bite counts. Progress isn’t always linear. You might have days where it feels like you’ve bitten off more than you can chew (pun intended). On such days, pause, breathe, and remind yourself why you started.

You’re still moving forward, even if it’s at a slower pace than you’d hoped.

The Power of Patience

We live in an age of instant gratification. It’s tempting to want the entire elephant eaten, digested, and forgotten in a single sitting. But the beauty of this process lies in the patience it requires. Great things take time. Whether it’s building a career, learning a skill, or nurturing relationships, the effort you invest over time creates something meaningful and lasting.

Share the Journey

Who says you need to eat the elephant alone? Share your journey with others. Whether it’s a mentor, a friend, or a team, having support can make the process more enjoyable and less overwhelming. Sometimes, an outside perspective offers fresh ideas and renewed motivation.

And if someone else is facing their own elephant-sized challenge, lend a hand. You might be surprised how helping others navigate their hurdles gives you insight into managing your own.

One Bite at a Time

So, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. It’s not just a quirky saying; it’s a mindset. Life’s challenges may be big, but they’re never insurmountable when approached step by step. Plan your bites, savour your wins, and keep moving forward. Before you know it, you’ll look back and realise you’ve conquered the elephant that once seemed impossible.

So now, what’s your next bite?

Are You Sharing Your Healthiest Seeds?

by Mehernosh Randeria | Dec 21, 2024 | NLP Around You

Welcome to the 92nd episode of NLP Around You.

I am so excited to share that the 5 Day Challenge – Design Your Year 2025 was indeed a game changer for the 500+ participants in the challenge.

One Minute NLP – Sports Performance with NLP

NLP is a game-changer for athletes striving to enhance their performance. The core principle is optimizing the mind-body connection, which directly impacts how athletes train, compete, and recover. Here are some key NLP techniques to elevate sports performance.

Anchoring: By associating a specific action or cue (like clenching a fist) with a peak performance state, athletes can trigger confidence and focus during critical moments.
Visualization: Mental rehearsals using vivid imagery help athletes practice winning strategies, perfect movements, and prepare for competition stress.
Reframing: Turning fear of failure into a challenge to overcome builds resilience. For instance, seeing a loss as a lesson rather than a setback.
Goal Setting: NLP encourages breaking down large goals into achievable steps, maintaining motivation and clarity.
Language Patterns: Using positive self-talk and affirmations replaces doubt with determination and enhances focus.

Athletes who master NLP techniques often report improved consistency, reduced anxiety, and enhanced overall performance. It’s not just about physical training — mental conditioning through NLP is the competitive edge.

Meta Magic – Are you sharing your healthiest seeds?

A farmer, whose fields danced with golden waves of the finest wheat, won the award for the best wheat in the county, season after season; and his name spoken with admiration far and wide.

One day, a wise woman, drawn by curiosity, came to ask him the secret of his success.

He smiled warmly, his eyes reflecting the vastness of his fields, and said, “The secret is simple: I share my healthiest seeds with my neighbours, so their fields can flourish too.”

The woman tilted her head, puzzled. “But why would you give your finest seeds to those who compete against you?”

The farmer chuckled, the sound as gentle as rustling stalks in the wind. “It’s simple,” he said. “The wind is a silent traveller, carrying the pollen from one field to another. If my neighbours grow weak and withered wheat, the wind will bring their flaws to my fields, and the quality of my crop will suffer.”

He paused, allowing the wisdom to settle like rain on dry earth. “To grow the finest wheat, I must help my neighbours grow theirs just as strong and golden as mine.”

The lesson was clear, its wisdom rooted deep: life is like a shared harvest. To live meaningfully and joyfully, we must nurture those around us. The worth of a life is measured in the seeds of love, kindness, and hope we sow in the hearts of others.

My question to you: Are you sharing your healthiest seeds?

Working Hard or Hardly Working?

“The universe opens up to you when you open up to life.” – Dr Mehernosh J Randeria

NLP Quote Corner

“It’s what you practice in private that you will be rewarded for in public.” – Tony Robbins

One Minute NLP – Dissociation

Dissociation is a simple yet effective NLP technique to help manage overwhelming emotions. Think of it as stepping out of a situation and viewing it from the outside, like watching yourself in a film. Instead of being caught up in the fear or stress of a memory, you observe it from a distance.

For example, imagine replaying a stressful memory on a screen. You can make it less intense by turning the colours dull, softening the sounds, or pausing and rewinding it. This makes the memory feel less personal and more manageable.

It’s especially useful for dealing with phobias, anxiety, or past trauma. By creating this emotional distance, you can process things more calmly and clearly. With practice, dissociation becomes a handy tool for staying composed and in control, no matter what life throws at you.

Meta Magic – Are you working hard or hardly working?

Rahul was the embodiment of discipline, his days governed by a rock-solid routine designed to hit crystal-clear goals. Yet, despite his relentless efforts, he watched his friends and colleagues surpass him in success.

Frustration gnawed at him, and comparison clouded his thoughts. Finally, unable to bear the weight, he sought his mentor’s guidance.

“Sir, I’ve given my all. Then why am I not as successful as the others?” he asked, his voice trembling, eyes avoiding his mentor’s steady gaze.

The mentor smiled knowingly, leaning forward. “Hard work alone doesn’t guarantee success,” he said.

Rahul frowned, but the mentor continued, “True success needs a clear mind, self-kindness, and freedom from comparison. Comparison erodes your self-worth. Ask yourself calmly: ‘Is this my kind of success? Did they walk my path?’ Clarity dissolves doubt. When you compare, you are not truly working hard; you are just hardly working.”

My question to you: Are you working hard or hardly working?

Hook From The Book

“A happy person isn’t someone who’s happy all the time. It’s someone who effortlessly interprets events in such a way that they don’t lose their innate peace.” ― Eric Jorgenson, The Almanack of Naval Ravikant: A Guide to Wealth and Happiness

Movie Motivation

“Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” This line quoted by the character Harvey Specter in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban encourages reframing and finding positive perspectives even in difficult situations.

Step Into 2025 with Confidence: How to Design the Year of Your Dreams

by Mehernosh Randeria | Dec 11, 2024 | W3 Blog

As the clock ticks closer to the end of another year, there is a unique opportunity knocking on our doors. It’s the perfect time to pause, reflect, and reimagine our future. But here’s the catch: dreaming big is only half the equation. The other half? A solid plan that bridges the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Why Designing Your Year Matters

Life doesn’t come with a rewind button, but it does offer endless opportunities to reset and re-strategize. Whether you want to advance your career, improve your relationships, prioritize your well-being, or simply live with more purpose, setting clear intentions is key.

Designing your year with intention allows you to take charge of your narrative. It’s about moving from a reactive state to a proactive one – where you are not just responding to life’s challenges but shaping its course. This intentional approach gives you clarity, focus, and the confidence to pursue what truly matters to you.

The Power of Clarity and Reflection

Taking time to design your year starts with reflection. What worked well in the past year? What didn’t? Reflection helps you identify patterns and lessons, creating a solid foundation for setting goals that align with your values and aspirations.

When you design your year, you give yourself clarity – a roadmap that provides direction and keeps distractions at bay. Clarity turns vague aspirations into concrete goals, making it easier to measure progress and celebrate achievements.

Overcoming Limiting Beliefs

For many, the barrier to achieving dreams lies not in external circumstances but in internal doubts. Limiting beliefs – such as “I’m not good enough” or “I don’t have the time” – can prevent you from taking the first step. Designing your year with intention involves addressing these beliefs and replacing them with empowering narratives.

When you actively plan your year, you create a mental shift. You move from a space of uncertainty to one of empowerment, where challenges are seen as opportunities to grow.

The Ripple Effect of Intentionality

Intentional planning doesn’t just impact your personal goals; it ripples into every aspect of your life. Relationships improve when you communicate your priorities. Career success follows when you’re clear about your objectives and work toward them consistently. Even your mental and physical health benefits from the sense of balance and purpose that intentional living brings.

Your Year, Your Design

2025 is a blank canvas waiting for your brushstrokes. By designing your year with intention, you take control of your journey, ensuring it aligns with your aspirations, values, and dreams. The process isn’t just about achieving goals – it’s about living with purpose and creating a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

Let’s Take The First Step Now

Life is too short to leave your dreams to chance. With clarity, intention, and a little planning, you can create a 2025 that’s aligned with your true potential. The question is: will you take the first step toward designing a year that’s not just good, but extraordinary?

I invite you to join me for an exciting 5-Day Challenge: Design Your Year 2025, where you’ll learn powerful tools and strategies to:
✅ Clarity: Reflect on your past and gain focus for the future.
✅ Direction: Define what truly matters to you in 2025.
