~ Mind Workout ~_____________________Unique opportunity to become smarter, more able to help others, and dramatically increase your learning rate.~By Colin Sebastian_____________________How fit are you?Can your mind do some heavy lifting?A fit mind wouldn’t get stuck, unmotivated and dull – it would be alert and active, taking in all the data and making the right moves to make progress.But to get and stay fit, you need the right “equipment” – which I’d like to tell you about.It’s easy to know a lot about something. DOING it well involves more…&nbsp;A Quick StoryIt was 1964 in the rolling countryside of England in a peaceful little county called Sussex.A well-respected thinker eagerly passed on discoveries made in his original research to a very select audience.This groundbreaking lecture outlined how to study anything effectively and quickly put it into action in the real world&nbsp;-a new &amp; unique way to master anything.…But this wasn’t just speed reading or memory tricks. He found the root cause of inability to study or giving up at something – Not what your high school teacher ever taught you!Rough SpotsHis discoveries allowed people to become sharper and stronger in life. They could use this new method and really achieve success in whatever they wanted to. But not everything went according to plan…Certain powerful personalities viewed this as a threat.&nbsp;These discoveries could lead to a smarter population that could think for themselves. People would see past their smoke and mirrors in government, big-business and advertising.&nbsp;…It would cut down their income and affect their bottom line!They attacked his organization with TV, Radio and Newspapers they owned by labelling it a cult, a scam and smearing it with false stories.These “Authorities” howled. Yet the organization grew worldwide… to over 11,000 central organizations, chapters and affiliated groups.Fast ForwardThis new method, called “Study Technology”, later came to be used by 28 million people across 70 nations, with 320 licensed schools and centers in North &amp; Central America.A study within South Africa’s Department of Education showed a passing rate of 91% for students taught using Study Technology vs. only 27% in the control group.It worked…It was an essential part of a bigger subject that made people more intelligent and able; a practical study of wisdom or knowledge.The thinker, a trained engineer from George Washington University, went on to become the most published author of all time, with 1084 publications to his name, he earned a Guinness World Record (and 3 others too!).He spent 50+ years researching the potentials of mind and spirit, applying engineering and scientific research techniques to the mind and spirit.Back to usOk, so you have a little bit of the back story.The name of the thinker is L. Ron Hubbard; a humanitarian, educator and best-selling author.In 1950, he wrote a #1 New York Times best-selling book on the mind, with over 20,000,000 copies sold! But he was just getting started …He founded a movement in 1952 known as Scientology. It’s taken from the Latin scio, which means "knowing” and the Greek word logos, meaning "study of."Spirit, Mind, Religion … Huh?So, what does “study of knowing” have to do with the spirit, the mind or religion?Well, what was doing the knowing? Hubbard found under very exact conditions, the “spirit” could exteriorize (separate) from the body…&nbsp;(Actually, a study found 10-20% of people have had an out of body experience: Kars, M., et al. Out-of-Body Experiences in a Clinical Population, Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease, 199(4), 236-241.)Since he had entered the study of the spirit, “religion” was the closest-fitting word.Not your typical Go-Sunday-and-Pray kind of place, but how to strengthen, and bring awareness and power to a person (spirit).Actually, on this topic Hubbard says, “Nothing in Scientology is true for you unless you have observed it and it is true according to your observation.”People often wonder, is it what it claims to be?Well… if it didn’t work, why would it have grown to 167 Nations? The Vancouver Branch has been at the same address downtown for 45 years.Opportunity?Thanks for reading so far – This is Colin - I’m a formally certified Study Technology expert and veteran Instructor of 10 years.Me and my team are looking for new teammates to get training in Study Technology to help our regular and new students. We welcome all applicants - no experience necessary!So if you don’t like the idea of being stuck in life and not progressing, come check out this awesome opportunity. We provide free cutting-edge training to our team.Unsure? Hear what actual team members are saying:“While I was considering applying, I had lots of concerns and barriers. Then I just started and the surprising result was that I no longer wondered if I should do it! Since arriving to the team I am getting some great training. I feel my competency and confidence are improved. Now that I am here, I realize that I am becoming more stable. This is the best use of my time to help improve conditions in our area.”~Warren | Langley, BC“I realized how useless my previous studying experience and techniques have been. Now I understand where the root of all my challenges – skipping class, memorizing, giving up and not using my college degree came from. I feel as though I learned a new super power!”~Alannah | Yaletown, BC“I had great difficulty in school but I pushed through it somehow. This trouble continued into my career as a biologist until I found Scientology, joined and learned how to study. Now I can learn anything.”~Bruce | Langley, BC“I’ve always had a purpose to help, but could never find truly effective ways to do it. I was experiencing some ups and downs, was burnt out at work and distracted.&nbsp;“From the moment I walked in, I saw Scientology in action and experienced massive gains. As soon as I started, my life became stabilized and I began acting like the capable being I am. I felt at home and excited for the future. &nbsp;“And the beautiful thing is that I saw other people improving as well. &nbsp;I witnessed miracles and the highest understanding, ability, and ethics in a group than I’d ever seen.”&nbsp;&nbsp;~ Danielle | Port Moody, BC“Some years ago I was looking for a job. While searching, I found way more than I expected in Scientology. I was skeptical at first but as I studied I found more and more truth …that I applied to my life which was unexpectedly profound. Every step of the way I learned a lot about myself and others which was very rewarding. I became an Instructor and am privileged to see others improving and help them as I was helped.&nbsp;I would say that I wasn’t very good at studying when I first started but now I definitely know how to study at a much faster rate than I did - and can help others do the same too.”~Pauline | Mission, BCWell, you’d like to experience these things yourself, right? Find out below:Myself and my team are a smallish crew of underdogs. That being the case, we can only handle a limited number of applicants per week. You have nothing to lose by coming and checking us out. So don’t wait to get in touch!We are a recognized non-profit and make a humble allowance to help with parking and expenses. But we give back to our team in more ways than one: training, counselling, experience, fun times and good vibes.

We normally request a small donation for consulting but are happy to provide it for you taking the trouble to stop by if you feel it wasn’t worth your time.P.S.&nbsp; Don’t stay stuck not progressing in life. ‘Exercise’ your mind - join the team and master this new ‘Study Technology’!
