“‘We can’t change the wind, but we can adjust our sails’. Most everyone knows, ‘When life gives you lemons, make lemonade’. So, it isn’t about controlling, manipulating or changing the outer world to conform to our wishes but it IS about evolving ourselves to meet any challenge. We may not be able to change the world, but we can change ourselves and our responses! This is what we must learn.
When challenges occur, it IS an opportunity to surrender. Most people don’t want to. Many don’t even realize surrender is an option. We’ve been conditioned to resist and fight. Understand that what we resist, persists. What we fight, fights back. We need to learn to surrender. As much as we might try to make the world conform to us or change the circumstances, we just aren’t in control of everything.
You are only in control of yourself. That is where the power comes from. You and I can be in control of our thoughts and feelings. We can control what we say and do. We may not be able to control the world but taking charge of our response changes everything. It changes how we respond to the world’s changes and how we can best get through it. We stop being victims.
Some things in life just don’t happen until they happen. You can’t force it. You can’t make a melon seed grow faster than it grows. Instead of wishing things were different YOU can be different. You can be your best self to meet the changes the world offers or hurls at you. Surrender. Give up trying to control things and learn to control your thoughts, feelings, words and actions to get better results.
It’s the time to allow the world to be the world. Accepting things as they are doesn’t mean they don’t change or that you can’t help steer them. It means stop resisting. Stop engaging in futile fights. So don’t fight it. This may seem difficult but it’s precisely what you and I need to learn. You need to learn how to navigate those times more productively and not get caught in the ‘trauma drama’.
Sometimes you must be patient and wait. Rise above circumstances and don’t get run over by them or sink into despair. Develop a champion’s attitude to be certain that no matter how tough things get you can navigate through them maintaining your attitude and your sanity. As a champion you don’t succumb to crappy thinking and feeling. You aren’t overwhelmed. You are resourceful, resilient.
Instead of trying to avoid tough times, seek feedback and learn from the circumstances. Find the seed of opportunity that exists in the challenge. You can if you realize you can look for it. If you get caught in spiraling down, you aren’t looking for the opportunity. You are allowing the events to control you. Stop giving your power away and instead grow and become your best self.
You can learn you don’t have to habitually react to things, but you can choose how to best respond. You can experience great freedom by letting go of trying to change the circumstances and focus on transforming yourself by the renewing of your mind. When things change, we react out of habit. We do what we have always done previously.
If what we always do is less-than-glorious, it brings us or others more pain. If things aren’t going well and your habits aren’t serving you to get through the tough times more easily while feeling resourceful, then it IS time to learn and develop new habits. Stop allowing life to be in charge WHEN YOU can LEARN to be in charge. If you aren’t sure how to be your best and do this more easily, let me assist you so you experience much more of the joy and success available to you when you are able to Celebrate Everything!” Rex Sikes

“If you can change your mind, you can change your life.” William James
“I’ll be blunt: I’m very disappointed that these secrets are available. I think buying this material should be treated like buying hand guns: You should have to fill out forms and get checked out first to see if you’ll use this wisdom for good or evil. I’ve NEVER seen such powerful techniques or insights. The average psychologist, cold reader, magician, or mentalist doesn’t know these “beyond secret” methods. You could start a cult with this! Far too powerful to be released publicly. Please take your Ultimate NLP Home Study Program package off the market—especially now that I own it.” –Joe Vitale – Author, 2000
“I am smiling and my heart is beating a little bit faster now, Rex. We go all the way back to the last century and me finding my way in many ways at that point. You helped me during that point because I learned NLP, and some of the communication material came from you. I was sitting at your feet and learning how to apply it in my life and career.
Freedom can be yours BUT if you do nothing, nothing changes!
You sent me cassettes Rex way back in the 1990s, and these were cassettes on communication and NLP. And we had exchanged some things and we had talked and you were very kind to me and very generous with me. I religiously listened to everything I am always studying, always growing, always working on myself and maybe even more intensely back then. Thank you Rex!Joe Vitale -Author, appeared in ‘The Secret’, 2022

“I give this course a massive thumbs up! And to put it into perspective I was already an NLP trainer when I came across this course some years back and I was blown away by the content in it and the way it is taught. Rex really knows his stuff and the content is amazing. But it! I mean every word.” Barry Neale – NLP trainer 2021
“My personal development journey took a turn for the better back in 1996 when I was fortunate enough to be trained and mentored by Rex Steven Sikes. It’s been my ongoing wish that Rex would put his personal and professional development insights, his unique accelerated learning techniques, and basic to advanced mindset strategies (what he’s rightfully termed Mind Design™) into a book. He’s finally done it and he’s held nothing back. Rex equips you with everything you need to live a more empowered life… He was the first person to really challenge me with the idea that to change my life, I had to change myself first. His concept of 100% Self-responsibility has served me so much in my life, it’s now the cornerstone of all my training and coaching as well. He states, “When you accept full responsibility for everything going on, you begin to access your inner strengths and power. When you accept responsibility your mind begins to look for solutions because you are responsible.” Bottom line: I’m a better coach, trainer, entrepreneur, husband, and parent because of Rex.”Joe Soto – International Marketing Coach
“I am beyond happy to call Rex Sikes my mentor and friend. (Yesterday he was was kind enough to be my Valentine’s too lol) seriously though. I’m so happy to have invested into his NLP home study course. Which he has taught many successful people in the past 40 years. Here’s a testimony from Joe Vitale from the movie the secret. If anyone is interested in joining the course. Please feel free to reach out to me.” Lynn Serrano – TV host, 2022
