  Just Listen to Reprogram Your Brain There are a wide variety of products and programs that offer to help you grow and achieve in various ways. Many of these programs offer substantial benefits over a period of weeks or months. Very few personal growth approaches offer significant long term change and help you operate at a higher level. The market is also saturated with copycat products and simplistic placebos. This has ultimately convinced many people that the personal development and self-help field is less than wonderful.
I have tried and reviewed many of these and look for the theory and core efficacy in every offering and technique. In every article, book, or study, I look for repeatable gains and benefits. Though many products and individual techniques offer some benefits, none offer the long term potential I believe is possible. I’ve always believed personal development programs could be taken to vastly improved levels. The journey and commitment is still long, but the accumulated results could be much greater.
Over time, I’ve used passionate curiosity and mental rigor as a guide. I discuss and validate the concepts at length, including working with psychiatrists and psychologists to get their perspective on these non-medical products. My current theory and perspective in personal development builds on many great teachers, researchers, leaders, and thinkers.
I have gradually synthesized a hybrid neurological, psychological, and developmental framework for human growth and achievement. For over three decades, I have been creating programs of various types to help people in their quest for personal growth and achievement.

 Abraham Maslow created a widely referenced hierarchy of needs. There is little doubt that satisfying our basic physical and security needs are a precondition to awareness and growth of higher levels. I’m assuming people who read this have already passed through most levels of Maslow’s hierarchy.
You now seek to grow beyond your emotions, inhibitions, and mindsets, upgrading a few personality traits and behaviors along the way. You’d like to achieve a perfect ‘gestalt’ in your internal and material life – such as open, flowing, evolving, compassionate, spiritual presence, and outwardly successful in areas you choose.
Our society has evolved a background of materialism, reductionism, voyeurism, and a host of other facets that work against the realization of these growth goals. I refer to the full expression of this spectrum of goals and traits as an “emergent” person, in the sense that they have emerged from the background noise of their brain and the world. In a different sense, many people are “emergent manifestations” of our world, rather than full actors that have emerged in the first sense. I refer to emergent only in the positive sense, as none of us want to be just an emergent property of the universe.
I characterize growth into four practical stages, plus one:
- Sleeping – embroiled in life, unaware of growth in the terms described here
- Awakening – aware of the possibility, engages a process toward emergence
- Transforming – experiencing obvious shifts and changes in their evolution
- Emergence – Significant ongoing experiences of openness, flow, and so on
- Enlightenment / Divine Consciousness – A fully emergent being and beyond

The Omega Mind Program builds on our other successful and powerful program, The Secret Brain Transformation Program (“classic”). Both programs employ intensely powerful techniques, leveraging recent theory in neuroscience to dramatically extend time-tested and proven self-improvement and transformation methods.
The classic program is essentially content free, leaving you to follow directions and mind your thoughts at all times as you learn its techniques to re-goal your brain and mind. Although positive changes occur along the way, it may take a few months to achieve the first shocking “aha” with the classic program – a point when you know positively you have a new hyper-powerful tool for change.

There is state of being that I call emergence. It bears much resemblance to terms such as transcendence, flow, heightened awareness, or spiritual awakening. I refer to a balanced gestalt of all these facets and many more. Emergence is the upper band of achievable human conscious attainment.
Although the names, methods, creed, and details differ, these terms all attempt to catch an ineffable state of experience in concise language. It is ineffable is because the experience is very rich, varied, and rare. There would be no easy words for Blue or Loud if the vast majority of people had never experienced sight or sound.
Now that I’ve extended, contorted, and re-coined a word, I’ll get to the topic at hand. I have broken the evolution and growth of personal consciousness into five stages. These include sleeping, awakening, transforming, and emergence. The last stage, which I can’t help with it, is achieving divine consciousness, enlightenment, and similar states. See five stages of growth for more on that topic.
