bring donuts to the office for my teammates, because I thought that this was

a nice gesture to show that I cared. Today, I would never do something

like this.

So here's what happened. In 2016, I went through a transformation

that changed me dramatically. If you looked at pictures of me two years

before and today, I even look different. I had to toss out 70% of the clothes in my

closet because my body shape changed. I went from 22% body fat to 15% body fat.

My energy shot through the roof. My skin started clearing up.

But this is how it started. It was January of 2016 and I was

at an event called the "Transformational Leadership Council."

It's a gathering of some of the top authors in spirituality and health and

wellness all across the world. At this particular gathering,

I was new and I saw this one guy who was being presented with a gold medal by all

of these other authors. And one by one, they were getting up and acknowledging him

and how he changed their life. So apparently, he had helped a large

number of these authors go through a massive health transformation.

So when Eric got on stage to get his award, he announced that he was going

to do this health transformation challenge again for the authors in that room and I

jumped at that opportunity. I decided to connect with Eric and sign

up for the next challenge which he called WildFit. So it was February of 2016 that I

participated in this 90-day WildFit program. And what happened to me

next was transformative. So Eric's a South African entrepreneur and

he had started a number of different companies in different fields,

including a production company that worked on movies like 'Pirates of the Caribbean'.

But it's what he does in his spare time that makes him really unique.

He spends a good deal of his spare time living with the San people

of South Africa, hunting with them, living with their tribe,

understanding their way of life. And he noticed something fascinating

about the San people. Even in their older ages,

he noticed that the men and women of the tribe were remarkably healthy.

But here's the curious thing, modern science shows that the San people

do not do any more exercise than modern living humans. It's a myth that many

indigenous tribes actually get more exercise. So what is it that made the San

people so much more healthier? Eric believed it was their diet.

So Eric gained an ability to flip a switch in his biology. Rather than get his body

to crave sugar and burn the sugar that he's consuming, he trained his body

to burn the excess fat. Our bodies today carry about

a quarter-million calories of excess fat around us. Eric trained his body to tap

into those fat reserves for incredible energy and incredible health.

And WildFit was transformation the health of all his friends including me.

Check out these videos of fellow authors at the "Transformational Leadership

Council" talking about what Eric just did for them.

I cannot say enough about the WildFit program. I released weight,

19 pounds, and I've kept it off.

My allergies went tremendously down, and also, I started having the last

year's pain in my bones, like on my knees, my joints, and after doing WildFit,

that was actually gone without doing extra exercises.

Don't know how many times I've been on diet, but every time,

I just couldn't make it. And thanks to Eric and the WildFit,

I lost about 20-some pounds.

And what I love about WildFit is that it brings you the confidence

to live the life you want to live, to become the owner of your choices,

in terms of the food you eat and also, to be aware of your habits.

Fifteen pounds fell off. That never happened before.

Fifteen pounds fell off, but not because it was a diet,

it was because I was running a new life. WildFit is not a diet and it's not

a lifestyle change. WildFit is my whole psychology.

Now, isn't that amazing? It wasn't just these authors.

Eric also just, a couple of months back, received a gold medal from the Canadian

Senate for what he did transforming the health of a Canadian politician.

So WildFit transformed me. It was as if I reversed my aging by a good

five to eight years. And you know when you stumble

upon something that's so powerful you want to tell all your friends about it,

so I told my parents who were skeptical. My mom, my dad, who was 70,

went through it, and they had a transformation. My wife was

extremely skeptical, but as I got on WildFit and our dinner

habits started changing at night, she lost 2 kilograms in those 90 days.

And then I decided the ultimate test was to bring this to my company.

And this is where you see why I no longer bring donuts to the office.

Over 100 people in Mindvalley and their spouses went through WildFit.

The results just utterly blew us away. One guy, Diab from Egypt,

was hooked on Coke, finally got off his addiction. Our CTO Gareth lost 51 pounds,

and the results also applied to women all across the team. And what happened is all

of these transformations were happening in 90 days. But the result didn't stop

after 90 days. And so as people's energy levels started shooting up,

their work improved, but not only that, they started getting a desire to take

up sports, to go into weight training, to start training for Spartan Races.

This transformed our company in a dramatic way. And that's when we knew we had

to bring WildFit to our Mindvalley student base. And that's how Mindvalley

WildFit emerged. So diets don't often work and this is why Americans go into diets,

come out of it, fail, go back into diets, come out of it, fail.

As Eric Edmeades said, "The diet industry is designed to sell you

a broken system," a broken product so you have to keep buying and buying and buying

over and over and over again. WildFit reprograms your brain to only want

the things which are healthy for you. It's now been almost three years since

I did WildFit, and my body is actually not putting on weight, it's simply getting

better and better because I no longer crave the things I used to crave.

I can bring a box of donuts and put it in the Mindvalley office,

and people won't even touch it.

And it's not like they're using willpower.

It's not like they're preventing themselves, they simply have zero desire.

That's the difference between reprogramming the brain or forcing a diet

on someone. And this, folks, is so important today.

If you're eating unhealthy and going for a run, it doesn't work.

And you have to fix food first before you go into exercise.

Now, big food companies don't want you to know that. They blatantly lie about the

products that they're putting out there on grocery shelves all around the world.

One of the great advantages of WildFit is that it creates a form of memetic

inoculation against big food companies and the massive amounts of bullshit they're

pushing at us and our children. And this is why the changes

with WildFit last. Now, let me tell you what worried me when

I first did WildFit. I was worried that I'd have to give up things I really love.

You know what I really love? Red wine. I was a guy who, when I came back

from work, I would drink two glasses of red wine. After WildFit,

it wasn't that I had to give up wine, but my alcohol consumption fell by 70%.

And that really is what this is about. It's about willpower-free,

pressure-free ways to simply rewire your brain so you crave and you want what is

really healthy for you. And as you do this, using the behavioral

modification system of WildFit on Mindvalley's Quest technology,

you find that your engine flips. You go from having a body that requires

sugar and carbs for energy to having a body that instead burns the excess fat

that we travel with, and this forces you to dramatically

improve your health. If you find these ideas interesting,

and I can't wait for you to check this out.
