CONTENTS

I walk up the worn-out, creaking staircase to the second floor of the library, Dewey decimal numbers firmly in hand. I am on the hunt for a hallowed texta book that will show me the path to the hidden treasure within myself. Finding my way through the stacks, I stop in front of a tattered leather-bound volume. Sliding it off the shelf, I sit down in the aisle and begin to turn the pages, just as I have done so many times before. A deathlike silence surrounds me, but my inner world is all abuzz. The answers are right there on the page, the secrets to manifesting the life of my dreams, from keeping the right mind-set to understanding the process. I can feel the energy of the words start to surge through me. What a joy to experience! What magic! I have unlocked another piece of the puzzle of living a life of freedom, happiness, and peace.

As a kid I always wanted to be an archeologist. I dreamed of discovering fantastic treasures, hidden secrets, and esoteric wisdom. Growing up blue-collar in northern Indiana, I thought archeological adventure was something I could only read about in books. And read I did. I spent years in libraries, researching human potential, performance, and happiness.

In the process, and much to my surprise, I did become an archeologistan archeologist of life.

Over the past 40-odd years, my search through ancient and modern teachings has taken me on an amazing journey. The more pieces of the mystery Ive uncovered, the better my life has become. For a long time I didnt openly discuss my findings with friends or family, for I felt that if I did, those ideas might lose some of their magic. I wanted to prove that they worked before I revealed them, and truth be told, at the time I didnt have much faith in my ability to make them work. As with most experimental research, not everything went according to plan. But just as a master alchemist has to work with lead in order to make gold, the bad and the good contributed equally to my transformationa transformation that took me from working 60 disorganized hours a week just to survive to a life of fulfillment and productivity in which it takes me 60 minutes or less to do the same amount of work as before!

I am now ready to share the results of my years of personal transformation research. The process I have discovered will maximize your focus and productivity while banishing feelings of hopelessness and a sense of being overwhelmed. It can bring success in all areas of your life, transform your relationship with yourself and others, provide for a full expression of your values, and help you build a lasting legacy that will benefit the world around you. I call this process the Sacred Six.

WHY SACRED? WHY SIX?

I used to write goals and to-do lists by the thousands, yet I would achieve hardly anything. I struggled with focusing my attention on building the life of my dreams, until I finally discovered the holdback: I was not setting the right goals or taking the steps to achieve them. That is what I am going to help you overcome in this bookmisaligned goals and to-do lists that get you nowhere. The goals you will be setting are so important in creating a clear path to the life you desire that you will hold them sacred.

Sacred is a word dear to my heart. When something is sacred, it is not just important; its meaning goes deeper than that. The Sacred Six process will bring you to the full expression of your life purpose, and you cant get any more sacred than that.

Six is more practical. On average, most people can focus on only so many items at once. Six is the ideal numberthe sweet spot, if you willin most areas of the Sacred Six process, including how many daily activities you can effectively handle. Six is also the magic number in managing your time. For instance, lets say you work a standard eight-hour day. If we analyze your productivity, you will probably find that you are putting in only about six hours of
