Reinvent Yourself For The Revolution - November 08
This is Mike Lipkin and this double feature issue is all about reinventing yourself for the revolution so you can thrive on challenge, change and crises.
The revolution has started. Just look at how fast and how huge the waves of change have become. It may have begun with Wall Street, but its spread to Main Street all around the world. From New York to New Delhi, our worlds are being rocked. Whatever happens next, we all need to raise the value we bring to others to a whole new level, without burning ourselves out. That means we have to find a system that will motivate and mobilize us – not just today, but every day.

Discover the Power of Ichi-go, Ichi-e - July 08
How is 2008 going for you? For me, it's been the fastest year of my career. So much is happening, with so many people, in so many time-zones, I feel like I’m being obliterated in the blur. Sound familiar? If you're like any one of the 50,000 people to whom I’ve spoken this year, you’re in a race against the clock and the clock is winning.
So what’s the silver bullet? How can you slow down long enough to breathe and focus on what’s important? How can you become someone other people seek out because you consistently deliver so much value to them? How can you create conversations that help others grow, contribute and celebrate? How can you prepare to win so you always play at your personal best? How can you get more out of every situation through the power of fascination? How can you listen in a way that magnetizes the truth to you? The answer is Ichi-go, Ichi-e. One Life, One Meeting. It’s how you build Preeminence one day, one conversation at a time.

Listen Magnetically - October 07
Ask the right question in the right way so you draw out the best from others. Read this in conjunction with the latest podcast.
Welcome to the Fall newsletter that could transform your life. I'm serious. I'm going to introduce you to the concept of magnetic listening that will enable you to hear more so you encourage others to be more by saying more. So empty your mind, and fill it with this thought:
The way you listen to others becomes their opinion of themselves. If you listen as though what you're hearing is extraordinarily valuable, you make the other person feel extraordinarily valuable. What's more, if you listen for extraordinary value, you hear it. In fact, the way you listen makes it extraordinarily valuable because you're hearing things you would not otherwise have heard. You draw insights out of others they may not even know they had. Your listening expands them, their contribution and their connection with you. It's a beautiful thing.

Breathe the Zeitgeist! - June 07
Be a part of the world. Don't be apart from the world.
Say it. Say "Zeitgeist" aloud. How does it sound? Notice what you do with your face. You smile. You feel the excitement even though you may not understand why. There's something exotic and electric to the word. That's because it's an expression of our world. Yours and mine.
"Zeit" is the German word for "Time" and "Geist" is the German word for "Spirit". So Zeitgeist literally means "Spirit of The Times". And the word "Spirit" comes from the Latin word ‘Spiritus" which means breath.
If you breathe the Zeitgeist, it means you're absorbing the spirit of the times. It means you get it. You see the bigger picture. You comprehend your context. You get the what, the why and the how of transformation. You get the pattern as the dots appear. You get it before others get it. You act before others act. You talk before others talk. You are the Go-To person when it comes to understanding today and anticipating tomorrow.

I'm excited about this newsletter because I'm going to share with you The Three Commitments that will help you acquire the Ultimate Skill. So what's The Ultimate Skill according to Lipkin? It is to be someone who creates opportunity for others, with others; it is to be someone who expands the capacity of others to create remarkable results; it is to be someone who introduces others to new possibilities; it is to be someone who motivates others to see themselves as extraordinary; it is to be someone who shows It Can Be Done so others believe they can do it. In essence, The Ultimate Skill is to help others live at such a level that they thrive not just survive.

The Ultimate Skill
To be published later this year, my new book The Ultimate Skill is in fact a game designed to help you live at your highest level, where you thrive, not just survive.
In line with my personal commitment to innovation and personal breakthroughs, I have an extraordinary idea for you for this brand new year. Instead of each issue of the newsletter being an independent message, I'm going to be serializing The Ultimate Skill. I will share its development with you real-time as I develop it, chapter by chapter, rule by rule.
Now, aren't you glad you signed up to be an e-newsletter recipient? Are you ready to take yourself to a whole new level? Then let's begin:

Remember: There is no small stuff. Everything is significant. Be proud of how far you’ve come. Have faith in how far you will go.
Live Brilliantly.
Your life is a contemporary saga. You are a walking drama. Your story is as compelling as anything Hollywood has ever produced. So see your challenges in mythic dimensions. See your crises as rites of passage taking you to the next level. And give yourself credit for the hero you’ve already become.

Trust yourself. Trust others. Trust that your world has been designed to help you get exactly you need (not what you want).
"You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need" The Rolling Stones
Ultimately, there are only two kinds of people: those-who-trust and those-who-don't.
Those-who-trust have found an empowering answer to life's most important question: Am I living in a friendly or hostile world?

True Leaders Command The Power of Respect
Lipkin's definition of Respect: to celebrate the potential of everyone around you to contribute to your personal growth and success; to honor every person as a fellow Keeper of The Flame; to leave every facility better than you found it; To treat the elements of your personal environment with the care and deference they deserve.
You can always tell True Leaders by the courtesy they accord to others. Irrespective of their social position, they handle the people around them like most honored guests. Everything about them radiates a sense of reverence for the other person. It's in their stance, their voice, their eyes. It's not synthetic. True Leader's respect for others spring from their inclination to look for reasons to admire the people around them.
