More thoughts on Nic's films...
That short film was created by my friend Nic Askew, a self-taught
British film-maker. His unique films are designed to stimulate
an understanding of life and what it means to be truly alive.
All are produced in one take, no rehearsal, no scripting - just
surprising conversations with people that Nic (and thousands
of his regular viewers) find interesting and thought provoking.
I highly recommend you take some time to look through Nic's
archives at Monday9am.tv
and explore some of his other short films. What you'll find
there are many people that I would definitely call "Self-Actualized".
And although that's hard to describe in words, we all instinctively
know it when we see it.
These folks have an incredible zest and enthusiasm for life
and an unshakable sense of who they are. They display an immense
honesty and openness coupled with a lightness of being, humility
and compassion. They are people that have tremendous courage
and the self-confidence to follow their own path.
They have managed to find their own way to that amazing state
of Self-Actualization, and I believe that is the main reason
we find them so interesting and so captivating.
But what about everybody else? What about the vast majority
of people leading "ordinary" lives? The ones who may
feel frustrated or trapped by life's current circumstances?
The ones that know deep down they are capable of such
a life of magnificence, but have somehow lost their sense of
enthusiasm and direction. What about them?
Well, these are the folks I warmly invite to come spend a weekend
with me in my Self-Actualization seminar. My seminar is designed
to take you to the actual experience of Self-Actualization
- not a concept of it or just talking about it - but a deep
experience of your own unique true Self. This re-ignites life's
passion and becomes a "homing beacon" to help you
find your own path to magnificence and the courage to
stay the course.
But I caution you... my weekend is not for the faint-hearted.
Once you get a taste of your own true self - who you really
are - it's quite intoxicating! The life you thought was "out-of-reach"
starts rushing towards you faster than you ever believed possible.
And with the 'learned character' set aside, you may likely discover
that you're not at all who you thought you were!!
The main requirements for participants are a burning desire
for a magnificent life, courage, intense curiosity, honesty
and openness. If this interests you, I invite you to read more

Actualization Seminar.
