Twenty years ago I had the awesome experience of living for a whole year in a magical, fantastical reality. It was one of the most amazing times of my life. In fact, I wrote my first book in a tent at the foot of the Glastonbury Tor with Santari by my side. Since then, I've had many experiences of the fantastical, all of which shaped me more than anything I've ever done in the 'normal' world.

Why is that? How can something, that some people think is made up and imagined, have such impact on our lives? Because it's in those moments that you get an actual peek at yourself as a vast, amazing being here to do the most incredible work for the human race and this gorgeous planet. Because those are truer moments of reality than the mundane would ever have you experience.

Allowing yourself to experience your fantasticalness is one of the greatest gifts you may ever give yourself in this lifetime. It will unleash a power in you that has waited since your birth to come alive in you. It will let you walk in the magic of Life, sourcing genius into the world, creating that ultra connected reality we all dream of.

Discover the fantastical you. Unleash the power of creation in you. Live the magic 24/7. Discover all of this in my 'Fantastical Living' webinar that starts Wed. March 23rd 2016.

One of our Genius Writer webinar participants asked if I could address moving beyond wounds to the miraculous. Here are my insights into that from the perspective of writing or speaking genius ...

Wounds, issues, blocks, anything to do with an unresolved past occur in a fairly low vibrational frequency. If you move the frequency up, that unresolved thing dissappears....completely in that space. In the higher vibes, you see what it was for, you understand all the dynamics of it, you choose your greatest potential from it, etc. etc.

The writing or speaking of wounds, issues and blocks powers them ever more present in ourselves and the world....even if you're clearing or healing them. Notice how they keep coming back and back and back again. What we give energy to increases, so working on issues = more strength in the issue department. And sharing about it, powers it ever more into consciousness for the planet and beyond. Yes there's an argument to be made for people's awareness around this, but I believe we've tipped over the helpful awareness point and are now drifting dangerously into a full blown wound consciousness that is our trap.
So in writing genius stuff, does that mean you never cover wounds, issues or blocks? Well if you do it geniusly, it'll open up the conversation, insights and growth that comes from that. If you do it psychologically or healing-wise, it'll most likely embed even more in the consciousness of the person reading it.

So what to do around it? Let the genius flow through you. It knows exactly what to do to triumph in all areas around this. Me, I choose to go for evocative rather than emotional. Evocative emotion transforms and uplifts. Wounds, issues and blocks tend to depress and stifle the movement.
In centuries past, like some of the great British writers of the 18th and 19th centuries, emotional wounds were pretty much in everything and people called it genius. Take Wuthering Heights for example. I haven't read it in years but it sure did embed in me the challenge and trauma of unfulfilled love. In the 21st century, I don't believe that's what makes great writing. In the 21st century we're striving forward, becoming something more awesome than we can possibly imagine and daring new genres, new territory, new dreams, new everything.
Lifting yourself into a genius flow frequency and letting the Genius have its way with you, will result in awesome wordsmithing and a creation of that which wants to fill our lives in this extraordinary time.
As for the Miraculous, in my experience it ONLY dances into play in the ecstatic frequency levels, meaning you want to really let loose and let God/Source/Creator/the Great Geniiator have its way with you. Revel, thrill to the touch of it on your being, dance in the wonder of it all unfolding through you and whoever you're working with. See that being, that challenge, that problem as something so extraordinary it takes your breath away and fills you with Wonder, for it is there in that space that the miraculous will come to visit.
May you flow with Genius and dance always in the Miraculous!

I watched this great TED video today of Shonda Rhimes, TV writer / producer, talking about finding the humm -- "God's whisper in your ear" as she puts it. I call it the buzz -- that magical rush that goes through you when everything is working, when genius is pouring through you, when Life is full and rich and wonderful.

In the last 9 months I've been practicing living in the buzz, the humm, the magic, the genius flow and OMG has it been amazing. Here's what I've discovered about how to find it and live it.

FOLLOW THAT INNER COMPULSION TO DO GREAT THINGS:
I've discovered recently that doing things simply to 'make money' falls flat on its face every time. But if I do it from the wondrous compulsion inside me to do something great for the world, wow, the universe lines up behind me and it flows brilliantly with almost no effort at all.

UNLEASH YOUR GENIUS:
Everyone has a grand purpose to fulfil on this planet right now and your genius is the pathway into that. Your quirky, unique genius dwells inside you, just waiting to be unleashed into the world. Find all kinds of ways to unleash that, et voila, you are living and thriving in the buzz!

FIND YOUR GRAND PURPOSE & LET IT WHISPER IN YOUR EAR:
Finding your grand purpose is easier than you might think. It's right there, humming away in your tummy, buzzing away in your ear. It's those thoughts you think when nobody's watching -- those impossible, improbable 'who me?' kinda thoughts that stir your waking moments into buzz land. Everybody has them, but few people listen to them. My advice: Get to work on those whispers now, even if it's in a tiny way just to start, and everything in the universe will line up behind you to bring it alive and make it real.

LISTEN TO THE WHISPERS:
There is a greater, grander force whispering in our ears right now. Call it what you will ... Greater Self, Genius, God, the Universe ... that voice is constantly trying to get our attention and lead us in the right direction to fulfil ourselves brilliantly. Give more credence to the whispers in your ear than to the thoughts in your head. Thoughts seem designed to limit us and make us small, whereas whispers are meant to illuminate us and make us great.

AND FINALLY, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE WHAT YOU DO:
Do only that which you love and if you need to, learn to love what you're doing. That generates the buzz, and it's this high vitality state that will lead you home to the most amazing contributory life you can imagine and to a world beyond our collective wildest dreams.

We're just one month into 2016 and already for me certain words are going defunct with new concepts taking their place. Words like leader, teacher, coach, innovator and even visionary.

This week I wrote about moving beyond leadership to being a fusionaire ... one who facilitates the fusing of mulitipe people's genius to make something more extraordinary than any of the parts. It's the same with vision. In 2016 vision feels like it's got a box around it. If you don't box the vision, if you simply share this growing excitement in you with others, then visionary become collective genius fusionaire and the outcome is beyond anything you personally could have imagined.

Then yesterday a friend asked me about making up words to express new ideas before they become real. I love doing that. Language can be used to shift consciousness and transform the world. So here are some of my new words that engender new concepts for 2016 ...

Moving from teacher operating from a syllabus to raptivator: delighting others in the exhilaration of learning.

Moving from coach to epiphanator: throwing open the doorway to Life for others with awesome insights and genius breakthroughs.

Moving from innovator to winnovator: one who creates win/win innovations; not just a new idea, but a leap forward for all involved.

To top it off and show you the power of words, I saw this list of the top 10 job titles on LinkedIn and I thought 'Now those are businesses people will want to work for.' .... Digital Overlord, Creator of Happiness, Retail Jedi, Wizard of Light Bulb Moments, Dream Alchemist, Chief Chatter, Change Magician, Accounting Ninja, Chief Biscuit Dunker and Direct Mail Demi-God. Ahh the power of words to unleash genius into the world!

Many of you who know me well would assume that I have always been unleashed. But in August I made a commitment to go for it completely. No more publicly holding anything back because it might be too wildly out there for some. You know ... the tipping godness stuff, my love of dragons, our consciousness creation work to name a few.

So in the last few months, I've created a Facebook group called Dragontoopia, started writing a fantasy novel called White Dragon, led webinars for new folks on Consciousness Creation, hosted two megavents for grads as well as 3 Facebook events for an Awe Fest, the Grand Calling and Tipping Godness and generally been letting the writing pour from my fingertips to express my wildly unleashed genius.

What, you might ask, has been the result of my new willingness to really go for it?
1. I'm having a ball. Life is more fun than ever!
2. I'm making the same money in half the time - because I'm having more fun.
3. I'm making loads more new friends on Facebook who share my passions. Turns out unleashing is less of a turn off for folks and more of an attraction factor!
4. I feel more fully expressed and definitely more fulfilled.
5. White Dragon is amazing and I've only just gotten started on it.

All that to say, don't hold back folks. Don't think you have to frame your work to be heard or to fit the marketing manuals. Bah humbug! Be YOU fully unleashed and let your dragon roar, your genius soar and your magnificence rush to the fore! Unleashing just might be the most fabulous thing you'll ever do for yourself!

A singularity is defined as a point at which a function takes an infinite value.  Many think it's the technological singularity (AI moving into exponential intelligence) that will mark the event horizon of this for our world.  But I believe it's the human singularity that's the true playground of a limitless future for our world.

In his article 'The Shape of Things to Come - A Singularity in All Four Quadrants (Body, Technology, Consciousness & Culture)', author Corey deVos sums it up as "Today's Integral pioneers are the living ancestors of tomorrow's post-humans, standing in the convergence of all that is Beautiful, Good, and True.  You are the singularity, every breath rippling out to the edge of our shared future, echoing back as tomorrow's possibilities."

A good number of us already are those post-humans living into future possibilities today.  The key to this leap is our ability to create the consciousness that shapes our world & universe. 

Most approaches to consciousness assume we only dare to tap its infinite wisdoms.  But the new human pioneers are creating brand new wisdoms, insights and approaches, using our uber connection with Life / the universe / consciousness to power into reality today future possibilities that have hitherto been unavailable to us.

Consciousness is the maleable force of the universe in creation inviting us to use our power to exhilarate Life, to activate potential, to call possibilities present and to shape a wildly unfathomable future today. 

The new human singularity is a bold leap into infinite intelligence, limitless energy, expansive awareness and awesome power aligned with Life's ultimate possibilities. The new human singularity is not something that's coming.  It's already here and many of us are living today in the quantum, miraculous, future-shaping paradigm that it offers us.

Original thinking is about always looking for the next new -- creating concepts that have never been considered before. That might sound quite out there for most people, but I believe that original thinking and thought leadering are learned skills that everyone should have in their genius innovator tool box.

How can you become an original thinker, a thought leader, a genius innovator?

1. Be aware of what's capturing your thinking. Way too often the cultural whispers (how it's always been) swirl around us, trapping our thoughts and perceptions in the past without us even realising it.

2. The moment you have a thought, question its veracity. It might have been true in the past, but because things change so rapidly, it's unlikely to be true today.

3. Realise that everything is up for grabs to be made up newly. You're learning to put on 'possiblity glasses' to see through the lens of the new!

4. Connect with the streaming genius flow and ask what's possible and new now. It's about plugging your mind into the quantum field of limitless possibility -- just like plugging a computer with pre-programmed software into the internet to enhance its capacity.

5. Call the NEW to you. It's all sitting there in the field, just waiting for someone to capture it as a new idea, creative possibility, exciting innovation.

Generating the NEW is an art form, a skill anyone can easily master and I'd love to show you how in my TRANSFORMING THE WORLD webinar series starting Sept. 9th. http://www.thevisionarynetwork.com/webinars.html

I love this world. I love its color, its beauty, its breathtaking wonders. I love its ability to miraculously reinvent and reinvigorate itself constantly. I'm enchanted by the human race and their awesome ability to snap back from challenges and bring genius through them.

I believe this is the year when the world turns AWESOME, completely, totally, and in every way. Yes, I know you might think I'm being naive, ridiculously hopeful, or just sticking my head in the sand. But I don't think so. I see brilliant change everywhere I look. I watch people grow beyond their boundaries without struggle anymore. The downloads of greatness, genius, and possibility are flooding us with wonder -- and forward movement happens in record time these days!

Today I read a couple of great posts that confirm everything I believe around that, with great stats to prove it:

(1) 'Signs the world is getting better all the time' http://www.vox.com/2015/7/13/8908397/11-charts-best-time-in-history

(2) 'The world is becoming less violent' http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/22/world-less-violent-stats_n_1026723.html

Let me summarise some of their points for you in bold & italics and then add my own views to it:

1.  We're living longer than ever. At 55 years old my grandparents looked ancient and here I am, along with all my buddies, having amazing adventuresome lives in our 60's, 70's and 80's!

2.   The world's GDP (gross domestic product) has spiked in a way that's simply unprecedented in human history. We're heading into an entrepreneurial revolution, with genius sprouting up all over, solving major global challenges with exciting new inventions.

3.  Extreme poverty is in free fall. With the global internet & mobile phones anyone can be in business now from practically anywhere. And crowdfunding projects let us respond instantly to people and circumstances that require assistance.

4.  Deaths from wars are at an all time low. People the world over are working for peace. We're living more connected to one another, more open to differences in culture, race, sexual preference, etc.

5.  Deaths from HIV/Aids and other major diseases are in decline. Not only is our medical technology improving, but there's a sweeping movement by conscious people throughout the world to eat organic & non-GMO, be fit & healthy, and manage our own well-being brilliantly through natural, alternative methods.

6.  The spread of democracy has put pressure on political leaders to keep their citizens happy. People power has emerged in the last ten years like never before. Organisations like Avaaz and the Occupy movement call the power of the people together in support of the things that really matter to us.

7.  IQ tests show that the average teenager is smarter with each generation.  We're expanding our brain capacity along with the unlimited access to knowledge that the Internet offers. We're seeing genius popping up everywhere, in people of all ages and all walks of life. Genius is no longer something for the elite few, but the unique birthright of every single person.

And here are a few of my own:

In times past we might have seen one or two prophets / messiahs / gurus / saviours in a civilisation, but today the world is full of millions of people with awesome messages, inspiring work, and breakthrough ideas to help us all. Today every person on the planet has the opportunity to step into the awesome power of their own being, live connected and bring the very best of themselves to contribute to a better world.

We're no longer locked into being who we were raised as. We're superceding both nature and nurture to discover ourselves as expansive beings engaging with infinite possibilities and genius ideas in our every day lives. With all the inner work done by so many around the world, we unlocked the door to being ourselves fully and now anyone can move graciously and quickly into their greater being and the high vibe, transcendent living that comes along with that.

My prediction for the future of the world. AWESOME! It's in great hands....OURS!

Having developed the art of transformation for the last 30 years, I've discovered that the most powerful and even miraculous movement can happen when you let yourself be moved. It's a kind of exquisite anguish, a touching of something deeply profound, a sense of things more powerful than yourself stirring on the edges of your awareness. Watch my video from the Genius series on being willing to be moved.

As a coach, letting yourself be moved by your client will create a more powerful and lasting shift than you can imagine. Their greatness is called forth and suddenly they have access to more of themselves than ever before.

As a writer, allowing yourself to be moved by the genius that's coming through you embeds an enchantment into the writing that will move others as they read it throughout time.

As an artist or photographer, being moved by your subject brings something alive in that picture, taking it from a flat image to something that will captivate people and take them on journey into themselves.

As a singer, letting the song move you creates a wave that ripples through people as they listen, transporting them to a pure moment of exquisite experience.

When you allow yourself to be moved, a well-spring of energy rushes through you, tears well up in your eyes and a breathless gasp takes you over. That is the moment when the universe is powering up its wonders to be delivered on the slips streams of your awe. That is when the power to transform, to enchant, to exhilarate come rushing through you asking you to deliver its fulfilment into the world.
