Introduction

Welcome to the Construct, Neo. The individuals you admire for their great achievements aren’t special. It's the practices they adhere to that set them apart.

As your guide through this home study course, I'll focus your attention on the practices I've observed in those who have accomplished remarkable feats.

In the end, you will be an accomplished person—not because you are inherently special, but because you have chosen to follow a unique path.

This home study course demands a price: belief. For some, the cost of belief is too high to consider. But you don't have to pay upfront.

I believe you are willing to take the leap.

Throughout your journey in this course, you will gradually develop the ability to afford belief. You'll discover things you can trade in exchange for believing.

Consider this: is there someone so extraordinary in your life that you'd trade all your vacation days to be with them? Envision that.

When fully embraced, this home study course will repay itself many times over. You will learn to trade wisely. Additionally, you'll gain insights into the history of action sports and the remarkable mindset of its pioneers.

Ultimately, you will master the art of believing. This course is designed to be interactive. Every word is an exercise with a purpose—a purpose revealed as you progress.

Let’s begin.

I am speaking to you from your future.

You will adopt these words and apply them to your present life. Say it with conviction: “I am adopting these words and applying them to my present life."

Pay attention to the verb tense used. Verb tense orients your perspective. From that perspective, you’ll observe how concepts and objects align and influence one another like constellations. You’ll see the push and pull between them.

When you believe in these simple words, they will become your own, and YOU will be the one leading yourself to your future life. You might phrase it differently, and I encourage you to use even better words.

That’s the deal you’re making with me, the architect of this home study course.
