The Unlimited Self: Destroy Limiting Beliefs, Uncover Inner Greatness, and Live the Good Life
Jonathan Heston - 2015
Every one of them wants things better… They feel lost in a desert. Almost like they were born at the wrong time in history. Whenever they step outside of their comfort zone to expand their life, they face fear, lower self esteem and diminishing confidence. In other words - they face their own limiting beliefs. They want to make money doing something meaningful with their lives…but they keep showing up at a job or have a business that leeches their life and energy. They want better intimacy…but they don’t know the skillsets and mindsets to keep the fire alive with their lover. They want to be a great parent…but when they spend time with their kids, they are only half engaged. They want to feel strong, alive and vibrant – but they feel so overwhelmed and busy with all the other areas of life, they continually let their health slip.
They want to follow their passion…but they don’t have a freaking clue what they are even passionate about. They don’t even know why they are here. At the end of it all…everyone knows inside that they are called to greatness… To live an epic life… To have no regrets… To leave a legacy to be proud of… But even with everyone having this fire of greatness within… Most aren’t even close to where they imagined or dreamed they would be in life… Why? Because schools and our parents didn’t know how to show us the mindsets and skillsets to destroy the limiting beliefs and internal self sabatoge patterns that all of us face when we decide to live anything more than an average life. You can have your dream…but if your internal beliefs don’t believe it’s possible. It isn’t.
Lots of people still debate what success means. How about this. Success is when someone is willing to not just dream about becoming great…but take responsibility for making it happen. Success is doing the INNER work that is necessary to move past the hidden “blocks” that keep you from creating your dreams.
So the question is simply this. Are you ready to seize your greatness and not let go? Are you are ready for the mindsets and skillets that allow you to destroy ANY limiting belief that is holding you back from your greatness? If so… THE UNLIMITED LIFE is for you.

Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
Charles Mackay - 1841
This Harriman House edition includes Charles Mackay's account of the three infamous financial manias - John Law's Mississipi Scheme, the South Sea Bubble, and Tulipomania.Between the three of them, these historic episodes confirm that greed and fear have always been the driving forces of financial markets, and, furthermore, that being sensible and clever is no defence against the mesmeric allure of a popular craze with the wind behind it.In writing the history of the great financial manias, Charles Mackay proved himself a master chronicler of social as well as financial history. Blessed with a cast of characters that covered all the vices, gifted a passage of events which was inevitably heading for disaster, and with the benefit of hindsight, he produced a record that is at once a riveting thriller and absorbing historical document. A century and a half later, it is as vibrant and lurid as the day it was written.For modern-day investors, still reeling from the dotcom crash, the moral of the popular manias scarcely needs spelling out. When the next stock market bubble comes along, as it surely will, you are advised to recall the plight of some of the unfortunates on these pages, and avoid getting dragged under the wheels of the careering bandwagon yourself.
