The book is intended for entrepreneurs, business people, managers, CEOs, all those who want to be part of the equation a conscious person = a free person. For all those who want to understand, influence, act, and empower their minds.
About the Author by the Author
I am, by my first profession, a doctor. You can think about it as a mission, but to a greater extent, it is a way of life, an algorithm of thinking, true spirituality and practical cynicism at the same time.
Doctors mainly concentrate on the human being as a biological species, as an organisation of tissues, cells, and biochemical reactions. But when you watch a person think, dream, make decisions, and act, you come to the conclusion that he or she soberly combines a creator and a destroyer in one person. Exploring this contradiction is always incredibly interesting. And the profession is not important here.
As an entrepreneur, coach, management and human resources specialist, I have authored a dozen books and pioneered several innovative techniques. Throughout my two decades of career in senior positions, I have successfully applied these practices in actual business settings.
I often find myself thinking how lucky I am that the Lord has sent me on such an interesting journey. To say that I am grateful is equal to unconvincing silence. An amazing road with loyal companions: family, friends and sympathisers. They are so original and inimitably predictable that I feel as if I have met them in another life. Each of them has contributed to this book.
I am grateful to my parents for giving me the opportunity to fulfil my mission. An exceptional combination of genetic material in a special ratio and shape. Heaven knows best.
Many thanks to the patience and love of my spouse, who allowed me to deal consistently with both what I already have and what I can still create. Her love and care have been endlessly inspiring me to more and more creative deeds and achievements.
I appreciate the demanding efforts of my children, who have served as the best example for my ongoing development.
Special thanks to my editor and translator, who happens to be my old friend, for his witty comments and all-round skills.
Thanks to all my friends for their dedication, eternal values, emotions, sincerity, passion, optimism and musicality, which allow us to create in unison. They motivated me, inspired me, and opened up new horizons.
I also want to thank my homeland and all the countries I am connected with. The country where I was born and raised, the country where I got my first profession, met my love and where my children were born, the country where I found a new job, established myself as a specialist and person, the country where I live now. Thank you for your multitude and differences, as sources of historical responsibility and independence from your history.
I thank Him for not leaving us at all times.

If you don’t try, there’s only one option.
We live in a difficult time of permanent revolutions. From colour to informational, when the colour ones themselves become the result of informational ones. We live in a world of marketing, a world of advertising, a world of small hopes and big disappointments. We are constantly talking about a revolution in our consciousness, which, frankly, turns out to be a revolution in the way we consume.
In 2006, Australian producer Rhonda Byrne published her book The Secret, which sold over 30 million copies and was made into a film. The author gives step-by-step instructions on how to use the secret. Knowing the secret helps those who possess it to create the happiest, most joyful and prosperous life. Collecting the statements of famous thinkers, scientists, inventors and philosophers, on topics from quantum physics to religion, the author sought everywhere confirmation of her ideas about the knowledge and power of the secret.
