He knew that true breakthroughs come not from piling on new ideas, but from stripping away the crusty layers of old thinking. We all carry mental baggage such as assumptions, habits, and fears that keep us attached...
How to Escape the Matrix to Awaken Your Inner Leader The matrix is everywhere. It is all around us… It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth. – Morpheus, The Matrix (1999) Hello Reader, The movie The Matrix has never resonated more deeply with me than it does today. In our every day lives, we often fail to recognize the extent of our societal conditioning. We are like fish unaware of the water we swim in. However, when you begin to liberate yourself from...
