Hi everyone and thank you for joining me for
another episode of my program “How to be
a Mentalizer”.
My name is Ehud Segev, and if this is the
first time you’re watching me, please subscribe
to my channel, hit the bell button and follow
me on Social media by searching for The Mentalizer.
Also, if this video was suggested to you,
please consider stopping it right and watching
my program from Lesson 1 forward, to really
get a deeper understanding of the concepts
I discuss here.
For my existing students, before we move on
to new, mind-blowing concepts, let’s sum
up what you have learned from the last few
episodes: what mentalism is all about and
what role the brain and mind play in a mentalizer’s
work.
We also discussed what basic skills a mentalizer
should learn in order to be truly effective:
the ability to focus, listen, observe, analyze,
and process the verbal and non-verbal information
that has been conveyed to him.
Hopefully, all this input, as well as practical
exercises outlined in the prior chapters such
as clearing your mind, practicing tunnel vision,
and active or conscious listening, will help
you learn and develop these skills.
(Remember: reading about these techniques
is fine and dandy, but actually practicing
and exercising until they become second nature
to you is even more important).
I promise you that if you are diligent, disciplined,
and committed to perfecting all these skills
to the best of your abilities, your mind will
become sharper, more alert, aware, and attuned
to everything and everyone around you.
Now, after I spoke about what you actually
have to practice in order to become an amazing
Mentalizer, to use your mind in ways you’ve
never before imagined, many of you got so
scared that you immediately unsubscribed from
my channel.
That’s perfect.
We want minimum students.
But…
Those of you, who aren’t scared of what
your mind can create, of the most powerful
ways you can leverage your consciousness,
those of you who understand that watching
too much television, or playing computer games
is not going to help you get there, but decluttering
your mind will, you, you are the true students
I want in my program.
As the 19th century American author, Oliver
Wendell Holmes, so eloquently put it, “A
man's mind, once stretched by a new idea,
never regains its original dimensions.”
Now, in this episode you will have an overview
of techniques that mentalizers routinely use,
so you know what you are getting yourself
into!
To the untrained and uninformed person, these
methods may sound like something out of a
sci-fi movie, but the fact is they are “real”
and accessible to us here, on earth, as long
as we are willing to…stretch our minds to
new dimensions!
Please stop this video if this is the first
episode you’re watching.
A lot might not make sense to you.
Subscribe to my channel and start watching
my lessons from scratch.
If you’ve seen me on stage, I must add that
while my shows are pure entertainment and
include a lot of gimmicks they are different
from the seminars and workshops I teach.
You are not learning tricks of how to read
someone’s mind.
You are learning how to develop your mind
to influence the world and make it a better
place.
So now, without further ado, I am very excited
to unveil to you the keys to the fascinating
world of “Real Mentalism.”
*A workout for the brain
I came across a quote that says, “Every
man can, if he so desires, become the sculptor
of his own brain.”
What this means is that we can train, broaden,
and empower our brain to be creative, to encompass
all kinds of new ideas and experiences, and
to open itself to new discoveries.
That’s what the expression “thinking outside
the box” means.
In today’s episode, I will give you an overview
of techniques that might not necessarily be
mainstream or conventional, but they are essential
tools that, as a mentalizer, you should learn
and develop:
super memory
body language
and neuro-linguistic programming or hypnosis.
We will also discuss the “secrets” behind
“cold” (as well as “warm” and “hot”)
mind reading.
Exciting stuff, isn’t it?
I can’t wait to share all these concepts
with you!
Then, in the following episodes that will
be published in the next few weeks, I will
show you how to exercise and practice all
of these methods so that you become proficient.
If you’re not on my mailing list, you might
miss out.
Subscribing takes 5 seconds at www.mentalizer.com.
I can almost see some of you roll your eyes
and think, “Yeah, right, Ehud is pulling
my leg with all this hocus-Pocus.”
Listen: a certain degree of skepticism is
a very good thing.
You should be smart and discerning about the
information given to you, and not just accept
something without question.
On the other hand, too much skepticism or
mistrust can keep you from learning, acquiring
new knowledge, and boosting your mind’s
power.
I can tell you with certainty that all the
techniques mentioned above are genuine, and
some have even been used scientifically.
So as you start learning about these concepts,
keep an open and flexible mind – stretching
it as far as you can.
Ready?
Let’s begin to sculpt your brain!
*Don’t forget to remember!
We’ve all experienced this frustrating feeling:
no matter how intensely we try to remember
something, we just can’t.
Whether it’s a name of someone we met, a
formula we tried to memorize a few months
ago or just a thought that we really wanted
to remember yesterday.
What was that thought?
I remember it made so much sense to me and
I wanted to write it down, but I forgot…
And now..
I have no idea what it was...
It seems like this information has disappeared
into some big black hole in our brain, never
to surface again.
Right?
Of course, the brain doesn’t actually have
a hole, black or otherwise, but that’s what
it feels like when we lose information we
try so hard to retain – whether it is material
we learn at school or where we put our car
keys.
I mentioned earlier in this program that a
mentalizer should be like a good detective,
who has sharp observation skills, enabling
him to “register,” analyze, and process
all the clues he finds.
To accomplish these tasks, the detective must
rely on super memory of all the verbal and
non-verbal information that is conveyed to
him.
But if the detective has poor memory and can’t
remember some (or any) of the clues, he is
not going to be very good at his job.
The good news is that everyone has a potential
for limitless and infinite memory – we just
have to learn to maximize it.
In the next episode, I will guide you, step-by-step,
in this development process.
So make sure you don’t miss my next lesson…
But for now, let’s concentrate on a new
language…
*Do you speak body language?
No?
Well, you should start getting fluent in it
because body language speaks louder than words.
Yes, really!
While words can mislead us, non-verbal communication
through facial expressions, gestures, posture,
speech patterns, and eye movements doesn’t
lie.
In fact, we unconsciously send out thousands
of these signals each day.
If you ask me, the understanding of this non-verbal
mode of communication is very important, but
very few of us actually make an effort to
learn it.
Fortunately, you don’t have to be a linguist
to interpret the meaning behind body language
or, for that matter, control your own non-verbal
signals that you send out to others.
This is such a fascinating field and I am
really excited to show you, in one of the
forthcoming episodes of my program, how to
interpret body language like a pro!
*Molding the brain
Would you like to be able to influence human
behavior in a positive and meaningful way?
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) sounds
very “sciency,” but don’t let that discourage
you from learning at least the basics of this
powerful technique.
Now, we all have issues and problems in our
daily lives, whether we are cigarette smokers,
or we can’t make it to the gym or sit down
to study for the test…
Or we get pissed off really easily, or just
can’t laugh because everything seems so
sad around…
You or the people around you, have tons of
issues.
And it’s absolutely fine, but we can make
it better.
We can help… ourselves, and the people around
us.
We will discuss the details in a few other
episodes that will be fully dedicated to this
subject, but just to give you an idea of what
the NLP is all about, it “programs” or
“models” your mind to overcome frustrating
habits and behaviors in your personal and
professional life, and helps you set the kind
of goals that will lead to success and satisfaction.
For yourself, and for others.
Considering the positive patterns and great
results that the NLP helps you create and
achieve, it is certainly a valuable technique
to master.
So stay tuned!
*What’s on your mind?
“Mind reading” - doesn’t it sound mysterious
and fascinating at the same time?
In popular culture, this particular concept,
which we will explain in a forthcoming episode,
conjures up images of psychics and seers,
but in reality it has a lot to do with human
psychology.
An offshoot of this is a “cold,” “warm,”
or “hot reading,” all of which will also
be explored later on.
I promised to reveal to you all the keys to
mentalism, and I will!
You just have to be patient, open-minded,
and eager to learn and practice each one of
them.
Again, I assume that many of you feel that
the knowledge and tools I’m sharing with
you are a bit too much.
You guys can unsubscribe and I will still
love you…
But for those of you out there who are eager
to learn, to master, to become the best mentalizer
they can, I’m excited to have you here with
me.
