This mastery session is all about how I stay creative. The first insight I want to offer to you with great respect is, whether you're a bookkeeper or a banker, whether you're a taxi driver or a hamburger flipper, whether you're a student or filmmaker, you are a creative. When we think of the word creative, we think of people who are in ad agencies or often we think of artists. But whatever you do everyday is your craft, whatever you do everyday, you have the opportunity and I suggest you have the responsibility to produce your art. What you release out into the world will determine what the world sends back to you. You are a creative. 

My life changed when I was a litigation lawyer and I was working on this project for this law society that I was working for in my free time. I was putting together this project and we're going to be bringing together all these different lawyers for the others lawyers in the city. My co-partner on this project said, "You know, Robin, you're extremely creative." That sort of woke something up inside of me and it turned me on to the fact that I have creativity inside of me and it was just this light bulb or "A-ha!" moment. I suggest the same to you, which is regardless of what you do or where you live in the world, you have creativity inside of you. 

One of my favorite questions is what would the little child that you once were think of the adult that you've become? When you were a little kid, your eyes sparkled. When you were a little kid, you loved producing art into the world. What has happened to that, if anything? I want you to start thinking like Da Vinci. I want you to wake up your inner Picasso. I want you to find that Van Gogh inside of you. Regardless of what you do, I want you to connect to your creative wellspring that longs to show up fully in the world.

With that insight, that you are a creative person and you have art within, I'm going to share with you six tactics that will allow you to do what I suggest:

Number one. We live in a world of dramatic distraction. Most people are suffering from broken focus syndrome. It has never been so easy to be seduced by the shiny toys of modern society and spend the best hours of your best days doing not much of anything. The first tactic that I offer to you is build your life and your work flow around what I call tight bubbles of total focus. That might mean blocking out three times a week, from 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock on your written schedule because what gets scheduled gets done, and during that 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock tight bubble of total focus, you turn off all your technology. When you hear those bells ring and the notifications fly, it has actually been compared neurobiologically to the sound of a scream. I want to make that with great precision, that point, which is the sound of a phone ringing, has been compared in terms of your internal response neurobiologically to the sound of a scream. But if it happens constantly everyday, it becomes your new normal. Pretty interesting point, no?

How I Stay Creative

Seriously rich and robust stream of ideas, insights and implementation strategies that have taken me–oh, about 20 years to discover–in today’s Mastery Session.

Sure you’ve got a lot to do today. Got it. But just roll with me and watch this episode if you want to discover The 5 Mentalities of Mastery that the geniuses, business superstars and ultra-effective people run quietly through their minds.

In this high-content session, you’ll learn:

- The Lunchbox Mentality (and how it will make you unbeatable in your field)
- The phenomenon I call “The Collective De-Professionalization of Business” and how you can leverage it to your advantage today
- Potent ways to release your past so you can produce your brilliant future
- The peak belief of exceptional entrepreneurs (that also just happens to be the antidote to scarcity in your life)

And definitely share this session with your team + friends so we spread the value to as many people as possible.

With love + respect for your highest ambitions + greatest talents,
Robin

The 5 Mentalities of Mastery

I’m spending a lot of time in Rome these days. Writing The 5 AM Club, shooting teaching videos, crafting new leadership models and running the ancient streets before the Romans awake.
And so, with your highest performance + greatest life at the front of my intentions, I made this new Mastery Session for you.

In it, I’ll walk you through insights on how to x20 the quality of your work (based on Italian examples like Moncler and Ferrari), ways to scale your inspiration (from art like Trevi) and a lesson from a master in a cheese shop to make life vastly better [thank you Roberto!].

What The Romans Know About Greatness

The 2 Massage Protocol

From the archives...Geoff Smith "15 Wild Decembers", with vocals by Nicola Walker Smith. Interesting album, he and Nicola did the demos in their kitchen in London and we recorded the album here in New York. The pieces used fragments of poetry by writers such as Emily Bronte. As Geoff said, "I'd like to think that the music and poetry on this album share the same goal: to give voice to our inner longing for an absolute perfection which we know does exist. but which we also know will forever remain just beyond our reach".

The Last Of England-Geoff Smith

This morning routine has helped millions of people dramatically improve their productivity and performance. 

I shot this hot new Mastery Session where I deconstruct the protocol and then walk you through [in pretty granular detail] The 20/20/20 Formula that sits at the base of this extraordinary habit.

The #1 Habit SuperProducers Run Daily

In this Mastery Session you'll discover:
--The Gift of Presence as a tool to astonish.
--The importance of pursuing connection over cash and purpose over profit.
--How the great heroes built understanding and forgiveness.
--Why being the kindest person in every room your in wins.
