Course Curriculum

John is an energetic and inspiring teacher who presents a vision of possibility that feels both simple and attainable. Combining simple brilliance with common sense, his strategies for ushering in a new era of focused energy empower people to operate with adaptability, inspiration, and optimism.

Session 1: Personality

Your personality is made up of how you think, act, and feel. In Session 1, John helps you evaluate your current personality structure and how to shift it to better yourself and your place in the future.

Session 2: Letting Go Of Future Memories

To view the future in exciting ways, it’s time to let go of the perceptions you had of the future. In order to do just that, John will walk you through the five stages of mourning your previous perceptions of the future.

Session 3: Survivor Vs. Creator Energy

As the future, and its vast changes press on, it’s important to be clear about how you're showing up. Are you operating in survivor mode or navigating with a creative, anticipatory mindset? In this session, you’ll discover how shifting from a naive mindset rooted in a victim, savior, or anger role to a mature mindset of creator, coach, or challenger role can transform how you engage with the world.

Session 4: What To Burn

To move forward, it’s essential to burn the ideologies and relationships that may be holding you back. In Session 4 you’ll identify the relationships and ideologies worth keeping and which ones can be discarded

Session  5: Victimhood

An unfortunate truth of our modern world is that the concept of victimhood is baked into many societies. In Session 5, we’ll explore how inferiority and superiority victimhood limit our ability to connect, create, and collaborate effectively. By examining these mindsets and learning John’s concept of "interiority," you’ll be able to show up with openness that fosters relationships built on mutual respect and the desire to grow together.

Session 6: Resilience Trap

Resilience. Once a trademark of humankind, it’s viewed by John as more of a trap. In Session 6, you’ll explore how to let go of outdated notions of resilience and embrace transformation as a process of re-creation and re-invention, rather than a recovery or retreat to what was.

Session 7: Running Away Or Toward

In Session 7, you’ll examine whether your motivations and ambitions stem from anxiousness or excitement. Are you running toward the light of excitement or away from the darkness of fear and discomfort? To help you maintain momentum in a dynamic world, you’ll also map out practices for managing your emotional, mental, and physical states of being as a way to support excitement and possibility.

Session 8: Wired For Outcome Or Puzzle

An addiction to certainty has become an all-too-common phenomenon. People are wired for outcomes rather than the challenge of the puzzle. To become best prepared for an age of certainty, it is to your advantage to celebrate the process of the puzzle, using dopamine to fuel creativity, resilience, and intrinsic motivation along the way.

Session 9: Victory Conditions

Victory conditions set the bar and focus on achievement and celebration. They are an image of what success authentically looks like and feels like to you. In Session 3, you'll explore how to craft both victory and failure conditions, so you can confidently steer all facets of your life toward the future you desire.
