Getting Ready – Peace City
Hello again 
Today I thought I’ll tell you a bit about how I prepared for our world record project. Why am I telling you this? Because I believe that if YOU really want something in your own life, there is a great chance that you can have it. Well, we can’t always control the outcome but we can do everything in our power to be really prepared for what’s to come. Since 99% of the DNA in all people is the same, we’re all more similar than what meets the eye.
I believe that in order to accomplish any victory I first need to win an inner victory. This means overcoming any obstacles and challenges that may prevent me from reaching my goal. Preparation is the mother of success. Since our project is quite complex, I created my own training program for body, mind and spirit. I call this heartware. A computer needs the right software to work. A person needs the right heartware. Since there is no “how to build a city” Ph.D. program out there I needed to create my own. I studied 223 books covering a wide range of subjects. I got the books as audio books and they add up to more than 1,800 hours of lectures. I listened to them, made notes and then quizzed myself. It took me several years. Even if I would have listened to these books non stop ( Monday through Friday 9 to 5) it would have taken me 11 months.
The subjects included:
- economics
- psychology
- philosophy
- politics
- physics
- biology
- the latest brain science
- branding
I also studied my role models
- Albert Einstein
- Thomas Edison
- Leonardo DaVinci
- and many more
Something fascinating happened. At one point I realized that something I had learned in physics also applied to psychology or some computer process taught me something about the brain. Patterns started to emerge in the most unexpected places. Similarities between the most unlikely pairs of sciences began to surface.
What I learned made me both concerned as well as HOPEful about our future.
Time flies. Almost 3am. I better go…
Have an awesome day!
Samy
