Many of us have “traveling with the family” on our bucket lists. We crave freedom from the 9-5 or the luxury of the four-day work week, but the systems and mindset that we operate on never get us anywhere near achieving them. What if you can achieve more of these results while working less time?

 

At 41, published author, international speaker, and certified digital marketing strategist, Nick Cownie has figured out how he can travel the world, do awesome things with amazing people, and get paid for it.

 

Quite different from the average business, Nick’s month looks like 10 hours of work per month delivering his services to his clients, and 30 hours dedicated to marketing and sales.

 

He employs a pragmatic approach to life and his business methods take him and his clients to their point B faster. Over the years of his coaching experience, Nick developed simplistic NLP techniques of teaching people mindset strategies that are digestible in seven minutes on average, which he, later on, wrote into a book called The Seven Minute Mindset.

 

In this episode, get nerdy with us about combining real-world practical structure and systems, best practices, NLP and hypnosis, and notable principles that create amazing results for people who are after achieving exponential growth.

(02:43) Try This Mindset Work

 

Our guest, Nick Cownie helps people break through to the next level by rewiring their brains, helping them build unshakable confidence, and destroying self-sabotage. In our recent episode, Nick shared with us an impactful yet ridiculously simple concept of CHOICE. 

Wanna try this quick mindset work? Here goes…

Write the word CHOICE on a piece of paper, in capital letters so that the letters bleed through to the other side of the paper. 

Write it so that you can see through the paper, and then flip that paper over.

Notice that it still perfectly reads CHOICE because of the way letters are formed. 

And so you turn it over and over and over, and every single time it reads CHOICE. 

And so the concept is there's always another choice, right? 

Nick commits to his belief that FREEDOM IS A CHOICE- and it's not a one-off choice.

And it really does come down to the moment by moment choices with the criteria that you ask yourself –

“Is this moving me closer or further from my personal definition of freedom and what that means to me in my life?”

If you tried it, let us know what you think!

About the Guest:

Nick is a certified NLP trainer, published author, international speaker, and certified digital marketing specialist.

Nick is often brought in as the behind-the-scenes “secret weapon” to provide elite training and consulting, and his personal client list reads like the “who’s who” of the international business, sports, and entertainment communities.

His background in Traditional Chinese Medicine has equipped Nick with the ability to identify patterns from disorganized business systems. He transforms complex business concepts into a system that is reproducible, generates results and moves the needle for his clients in the quickest time possible.  

Using NLP, he brings mindset tools that allow his clients to get out of their own way and massively transform their businesses through brilliant business models and marketing sales processes in as little as three months.

What most people do not know about Nick is that at 21, together with a friend, Nick was held at gunpoint and robbed after a night out to celebrate his birthday. Following that, he was diagnosed with PTSD which cramped his life.

Learning NLP at 26, Nick managed to resolve in ten minutes his PTSD condition which he grappled with and held him hostage for five long years.

Owing to his sought after course and coaching business, Nick enjoyed traveling the world with his family for a decade.
