Unlock Your Peak Performance and Mental Transformation – Discover the Self-Realization Secrets that Separate Extraordinary Achievers from the Ordinary | Personal Development | Consciousness Optimization | Growth Mindset | Spiritual Intelligence.
Have you ever wondered why some people achieve extraordinary results while others remain stuck in mental limitations and self-sabotage patterns? In this groundbreaking mindset transformation episode, join me, Linton Bergsen on the Self Realized, Shatter Your Limits podcast, as I reveal the game-changing difference between your state of mind and your thinking process – the consciousness optimization secret that self-realized individuals use to create peak performance in every area of life.
Most people dive straight into problem-solving without examining their mental foundation, but when fearful, anxious, or limiting states of mind form your starting point, even the most logical thinking leads to restricted outcomes – as I reveal, "You cannot think about something from a negative state of mind and expect a positive result."
The self-realized individual understands that optimizing your mind for maximum results requires cultivating a state of consciousness characterized by receptivity, expansiveness, and intuitive awareness. This powerful combination of spiritual intelligence (intuition) and human intelligence creates a mental transformation foundation that revolutionizes how you approach every challenge. I examine how self-sabotage stems directly from maintaining a mindset stuck in past experiences, preventing you from recognizing new opportunities for personal development and growth. Through fascinating quantum computing breakthroughs and record-breaking athletes who achieve peak performance, I demonstrate that your mental limitations are largely self-imposed. Those who achieve the extraordinary don't see limits, they see opportunities for consciousness expansion and mindset mastery.

Episode Transcript
Welcome to the Self-Realized Podcast with
Linton Bergsen, where you willshatter your limits.
I am not much into theself-help industry as much as
I'm into the self-realizedindividual, which is you, what
matters most to you, how you getthere and the obstacles that
may be in your way.
If you would like to be part ofthis podcast and part of that
(00:22):
discussion, I welcome you herewith an open heart, open mind
and open arms.
So, without further ado, let'sget on with the podcast.
A very warm welcome to episodenumber 105 of the Self-Realized,
(00:47):
Shatter Your Limits Podcast.
Thank you for taking the timeout of your very busy day to
join me, as we discover How toOptimize Your Mind for Maximum
Results.
Contemplate on this for a moment.
Do you think about on anongoing, daily basis, when you
(01:09):
go to set goals, when you thinkabout your life, when you think
about your personal life, yourprofessional life?
Do you consider for a moment isyour mind optimized, before you
start the thinking process, formaximum results?
What do I mean by that?
What do I mean by optimizingyour mind for maximum results?
(01:31):
Before you start thinking, Iwould strongly suggest you would
need to reflect upon the stateof mind that you're bringing to
the thinking process that youare beginning to get involved in
.
The state of mind that you'rein is going to affect how you
(01:53):
begin to process those thoughts.
A lot of times we don't look atthings that way.
We begin to think about thesolutions.
Thoughts come into our mindall day long.
We are constantly bombardedwith these different thoughts,
(02:14):
these things we have to thinkabout, whether it's work,
whether it's personal, ourfinances, the meeting that we're
going to have.
The thoughts begin to percolateand we begin to look for
solutions.
Unfortunately, sometimes webegin to look for solutions from
the wrong state of mind.
Fear, anxiety, unhappiness,desperation.
(02:41):
These states of mind aredetrimental to you having an
effective thinking process.
You cannot think aboutsomething from a negative state
of mind and expect a positiveresult.
It's not going to happen.
So optimizing your mind formaximum results simply means
(03:03):
this.
Before you begin to think aboutsomething, be very aware of the
state of mind that you're in,before you begin to process what
it is that you're thinkingabout.
It is called a thinking processfor a reason.
You're processing your thoughts, you're processing what it is
(03:28):
you're going to do next, aboutsomething.
For example, you might bethinking about a meeting you're
going to have at work.
Maybe someone that you're goingto have that meeting with that
there's a personality clash thatyou don't get along with.
So now you begin to have thatthinking process about how
you're going to deal with thisand the best way to approach it.
(03:50):
The first question to askyourself is this what state of
mind are you in before you startcoming up with a solution for
the thoughts that you're having?
This applies to any thoughtsyou're having about anything.
What state of mind are you into solve some of the issues that
(04:14):
you are presented with ineveryday life?
And it could be anything.
Now contemplate on this for amoment.
We use the term state of mindfor a reason and we use the term
thinking process for a reason.
They are two distinctlydifferent things.
(04:38):
My suggestion is when you beginto understand that you could
optimize your mind for maximumresults in your thinking process
.
When your state of mind iscorrect, so will your thinking
process be correct.
Your state of mind is thefoundation.
(05:00):
It is the system that you bringto bear upon the process to get
the result that you want.
If your system is off, then theprocess is going to be wrong as
well, and that is basically acombination that works in life
(05:21):
and in business.
If you know how to have theright systems in place and you
know how to use that system toprocess what it is that you want
, to produce the resultsconsistently that you would like
to have in your life, then thatis a recipe for success.
(05:43):
Your state of mind is the systemthat you put in place for the
success, for the process of yourthoughts and the outcome of
your thinking to manifest in aproductive, positive way what it
is you're trying to accomplishin life.
(06:04):
For example, if you areapproaching anything from a
fearful mindset, it's called amindset again, state of mind,
and you begin the process ofthinking from that fear-based
(06:24):
mindset.
And that is your base system,your foundation.
You're not optimizing your mind.
Your thinking is going to beoff, it's going to be limited,
it's not going to be expansive,because your state of mind is in
fear.
The self-realized individualunderstands this, that whatever
(06:50):
they are doing in life, theyhave done their own personal
development through deepintrospection, meditation,
journaling, whatever it hastaken them to get to a certain
place in life where their stateof mind can be receptive to an
(07:12):
intuitive process, to thefeelings that they are having
about what it is they'rethinking.
And when you begin to have thiscombination of the correct state
of mind, applying it to yourthinking process, your outcomes
become very different.
You have optimized your mindfor maximum results.
(07:37):
Let me give an example of that.
If you begin to think and havea state of mind of receptivity
to a creative solution toproblems that you're having, and
you're not just limitingyourself to a logical process,
(08:00):
you're beginning to open yourown consciousness, your state of
mind, the system that you'rebringing to bear upon your
thoughts and your thinkingprocess to a more intuitive,
expansive way of approaching howyou solve problems in your life
, how you create the life thatyou want.
(08:20):
Because if you only bring astate of consciousness, a state
of mind of limited thinkingabout an intellectual response
to something, whether it'sbusiness or life, you are going
to get stuck in just thatintellectual thought about a
logical solution to what it isthat you're thinking about.
(08:45):
A lot of times in our life, thebest solutions that we have are
not logical, they're intuitiveand the expansion of your state
of mind and your consciousnessis optimizing your mind for
maximum results.
You cannot be in a limitedstate of mind to get maximum
(09:06):
results about whatever it isyou're thinking about.
It can be health, it can bemoney, it can be work, it can be
anything that life is going tothrow at us.
As long as we are consciouslyaware of our state of mind, we
(09:28):
can optimize the solutions thatwe come up with through our
thinking process.
Contemplate on this for a momenthow many times have you made
decisions and gone through athought process about what it is
you're going to do and you'rethinking about how it is you
(09:50):
want to get the results youwould like, and you had a state
of mind that you didn't believein yourself, didn't have faith
in yourself.
You didn't have confidence inyourself when you decided that
there was a course of actionthat you were thinking about to
get what it is maybe that youwould like to have your mind
(10:12):
told you that it wasn't possible.
Why are you even thinking thatway?
So your state of mind, thesystem, the foundation you have
in place is not solid.
It's filled with self-doubt.
So the process that you thenbegin to implement is then
flawed.
It's the same in business andin life.
(10:34):
If you don't have the rightsystems in place, then the
outcome is not going to be whatyou would like.
Your process is not going to bewhat you would like, so you
have to know what it is that youwant.
For example, you would thinkthis is what I would like to do.
(10:55):
This is a dream that I have.
This is something I think I cansee myself doing.
Then the state of mind has tomatch that.
The state of mind has to be Iam an unlimited, confident,
powerful individual that canachieve and accomplish anything
(11:16):
that I set out to do, becauseI've tested myself ongoing in my
life, and I know, because I'vedone the work I've gone into
that self-realization mode thatI can accomplish pretty much
anything I set out to do becauseI put my mind to it.
State of mind, state ofconsciousness, that is going to
(11:40):
affect your thinking.
Optimizing your mind formaximum results is not a
complicated process.
What you are going to do, andbegin to do, is work on your
state of mind every day.
When you begin to work on yourstate of mind, you will find
(12:02):
that your thinking processautomatically changes and the
way you begin to work onoptimizing your mind for ongoing
positive expectancy ofunlimited possibilities is by
integrating your intuition,integrating that part of you
(12:25):
that begins to expand beyondwhat it is you may think is
possible from the appearances ofexternal circumstances.
External circumstances arelimited.
My suggestion is you cultivatea state of mind that allows you
(12:47):
to feel intuitively what ispossible and create your
thinking process to match whatyou're guided to do.
What you intuitively are guidedto do within yourself is
optimizing your mind for maximumresults.
Your mind is a state ofconsciousness.
Your consciousness is notdirectly tied to your body, to
(13:13):
what it is your body thinks itcan do.
And, as I mentioned in theprevious episode, quantum
computers are now getting topresent this to us as a reality.
And we know that because wehave seen time and time again
many of the records that havestood for a long time.
(13:35):
People shatter all the time insports.
Why?
Because they thought they could.
Their state of consciousness,their mind, saw a number and for
them that wasn't a limit.
It was something to breakthrough and pass that they could
use to grow.
Their state of consciousness,their state of mind, affected
(14:00):
their thinking process, soaffected their outcome.
It requires you to change howyou think, the limits you set on
yourself and the way that youthink about your life.
That is going to change yourthinking process, to achieve the
extraordinary Change your stateof mind, that will change your
(14:23):
thinking process and that willthen, in turn, change your life.
If you want to go beyond whereyou are now, you're going to
have to create a consciousnessthat is more expansive than
where you are now and that isgoing to require you to step out
(14:44):
of your comfort zone, overcomefear and have courage.
Courage is important to have.
Why?
Because having fear which I usethe acronym and it's been used
before false evidence appearingreal doesn't mean you don't act.
Courage means that you act eventhough you don't know the
(15:05):
outcome of something.
You might be fearful of theoutcome.
Courage means you have theability to act even though there
may be some fear there aboutwhat may happen.
But again, having courage toact in spite of feeling the fear
is a state of mind.
(15:26):
Everything you do is a state ofmind and from that state of
mind you begin to start athinking process based on the
courage to act and not the stateof mind to be paralyzed by fear
.
(15:46):
Contemplate on this for a moment.
Any self-sabotaging act thatyou do in life is based upon the
state of mind that you're in,the thinking it promotes and the
actions that you take.
Contemplate on that.
(16:08):
For example, let's say that youhave had a situation in your
life where you've been throughsome bad relationships,
romantically or otherwise,friendships, just relationships
and someone comes along that ispretty great, but you cannot
(16:30):
accept this person because yourstate of mind has remained and
is remaining on what happenedprior to this person coming into
your life.
So your thinking process now isstuck in a previous state of
(16:50):
mind and cannot accept theopportunity that is before you
simply because your state ofmind, the system that you have
in place, the process you'rethinking now, is stuck in the
past.
As long as you remain in aplace in your life where you are
(17:12):
not constantly aware of yourstate of mind that you are
bringing to your thinkingprocess, you cannot optimize
your life.
Optimizing your life meansoptimizing your mind for maximum
results, which means beingaware of where your mindset is
(17:36):
in a very mindful way before youstart any thinking process.
When you begin to live lifefrom that perspective, you don't
begin to activate your thinkingprocess from a place of anger,
from a place of frustration, astate of mind of resentment of
(18:01):
what has been done to you.
The self-realized individual isalways cultivating, working on
calm, expansive, intuitive,positive, divine, cosmic,
conscious awareness, whateveryou want to call it.
(18:22):
It's essentially combiningtheir spiritual intelligence
which is what intuition is alongwith their human intelligence,
creating a state of mind thatincorporates both of those to
have a successful thinkingprocess.
(18:43):
The correct system in place,the correct process in place,
will give you the best resultspossible for the outcomes that
you would like to see and havein your life.

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
