School of Thinking

#15 DFQ

I want to devote a separate lesson to discussing tenpower thereby giving it the importance it deserves.

If these lessons were just about theory, tenpower could be left out, but it’s really a training program about action. You don’t just want to know about cognetics, you also want to be able to DO it.

Practice, Repetition, Rehearsal

It was revealed to me during my army training lessons, in the late ’60s, when I was a 20-year-old national serviceman draftee, how amazingly effective was the strategy of REPETITION. Army instructors demonstrated its power by always having us use practise, repetition and rehearsals.

I remember thinking it odd, at the time, that an ambush was actually rehearsed in detail in the field before being laid that night. But why not? Ambushing is a skill and anything that is a skill can be dramatically improved with repetition and practice.

A pattern is something that is repeated more often than randomness or chaos. The architecture of a pattern is repetition. That’s why in a patterning-system like the human brain system, repetition is the most powerful learning strategy you can use.

That’s also why you’ll notice a great deal of repetition in this training. It’s not because I’ve forgotten that I’ve already discussed something with you. It’s to help build patterns in your brain so it becomes easier  for you to remember and use the software.

IN A PATTERNING SYSTEM, LIKE THE HUMAN BRAIN SYSTEM, THERE IS NO STRONGER MAGIC THAT CAN BE USED THAN THE MAGIC OF REPETITION.

All this is critical when acquiring new skills. And, repeating things ten times is an excellent way to exploit tenpower.

You Can Choose Your Own Repetitions

There are, of course, many things in life that are not worth repeating. So, try and focus your repetitions on those things that are.

Ever since you were born advertisers and religions have used repetition to program your brain. So, you may as well use it yourself to embrace the patterns that YOU decide are most useful for your own brain. Take charge!

What is Tenpower?

Tenpower is the skill of using the powers of ten. Tenpower is a booster mechanism for your brain software. Just like enzymes that boost up chemical reactions or rockets that boost space shuttles, so can tenpower boost your brain software and greatly empower your thinking skills. Tenpower is all about using X10 thinking. X10 thinking is also called ‘tentimes’ thinking.

Alfred North Whitehead, the English mathematician/philosopher and co-author with Bertrand Russell of the great ‘Principia Mathematica’ said about ZERO, “The point about zero is that we do not need to use it in the operations of everyday life. No one goes out to buy zero fish. It is in a way the most civilised of all the cardinals, and its use is only forced on us by the needs of cultivated modes of thought”.

Put-on a Zero!

A zero may not seem like much. If you add it or subtract it from another number, it makes no difference at all. A zero barely exists … until … you put a zero on the end of another number and, mirabile dictu, that number increases tenfold!

That is Tenpower! Even the Egyptians had a symbol for tenpower and maybe that’s why the pyramids are so big.

In cognetics, thinking is moving through think-space, the information universe, the cognos, by powers of ten. Tenpower can be used in any direction – moving out or moving in.

For example, with tenpower you can move from 1 to 10 to 100 to 1000 to 10000 to 100000 to 1000000 to 10000000 etc–or from 1 to .1 to .01 to .001 to .0001 to .00001 to .000001 to .0000001 and so on.

The Official Number of the School of Thinking is 10! The habit of tenpower is the habit of using the number ten, the habit of adding a zero or the habit of multiplying by ten. By using tenpower you will equip your necktop with a very powerful booster which will give you an unfair survival advantage over others when moving through the information environment.

    I can repeat some actions or some thoughts ten times and create new brain patterns which I can use later.

  2. Mike Says:

    Apply the formula BVS=CVS x 10 to my thinking process.

  3. gpgiff@gmail.com Says:

    I can use tenpower to evolve my thinking skills to turn changes in magnitude into changes of perspective.

  4. Chai WT Says:

    Some of us have a definite chief aim how we intend to achieve our goals in life. However, 95% of these people continued to live in the state of poverty due to lacking in term of affirmative actions. I believe the power10 or the principle or power of repetition if consistently and persistently applied, it would lead to more successes in life for some of us.

  5. Adriana Cruz Says:

    I´m going to use it! I am going to Repeat every important action that helps me move toward my goals. It also means that if I repeat actions that will not help me they will stay there no matter what! From now on, I will be carefull enough to pick significant behaviors.

  6. Vijay Says:

    Repetition with an aim to improving the skill with each repetition ( processing speed, total output etc.) helps rewire the brain to consolidate a habit. Ten is a convenient number of times one needs to repeat a skill to get good enough at it.

  7. Kamal F. Najjar Says:

    Devlop the habit of saying and thinking “it is ten times better to do so and so” It is ten times cheaper…” It is ten times more powerful… It is ten times more productive… It is ten times faster…

  8. Hoyt Says:

    By giving my brian a powerful booter like tenpower, will give me an advantage that is long overdue.

  9. Peter Cs Says:

    multiply my thinking X10

  10. Jonaku Says:

    If I utillize 10power to focus on my goals and objectives by repetition of my sayings of that which I want…will expite the process of achieving said goals.

  11. Steve Says:

    Habits to form instinct and reaction without the need to continually develop and think about the pattern of thought…

  12. Jiaming Tan Says:

    Repetition can lead anything to habit and then hatbit send it to being natural. So finding a better way to think or to do is the first priority to me in anytime before I start the rehearsals.

  13. jason kimberley Says:

    Don’t go for incremental thinking – THINK BIG!

  14. Chris Says:

    I like the thought that: the point about zero is that we do not need to use it in the operations of everyday life.

    This is a powerful yet, yet one that is not always obvious.

  15. Cristina Says:

    Tenpower make you more focused on what you proposed to achieve.

  16. Jonathan Says:

    By using the power of ten in the formula

    “BVS = CVS x 10″ or.

    just using it to add tenpower to my thoughts and thinking patterns,

    I can begin to instil positive thought patterns into my life, which will benefit me tenfold.

  17. Graeme McLeod Says:

    Tenpower THINKING can increase exponentially the possibilities of what can be achieved ….it leaves “ones” in the dust ….and automatically frees the thinking process to not just consider ,but TO DO ten times more acts which are focussed on a goal or objective…..it is a mind-shift concept that liberates and empowers the THINKER and DOER of purposive actions.
    I no longer think in ones…I think in tens or powers of ten …that presets my mind on (sowing)achieving many more tasks …to reap much better results …measurable results.

  18. Julian Says:

    by expecting more and not accepting anything less

  19. Andrew Says:

    By looking for ten options causes me to extend the amount of time that I spend thinking.
    If you want to get better at something you must keep on practicing, evolving thinking skills is no different.

  20. robert siegel Says:

    1. repeating things 10x
    2. Demanding excellence of myself by demanding a 10bvs:cvs

  21. Montip Says:

    The tenpower makes me think of the situation in steps and with greater view. I believe it is the change of my thinking process to be more systematic.

  22. albert Says:

    I have serious memory problems. I believe that tenpower can be very useful to avoid losing things memory. Tenpower may be key to remember. Tenpower can help me slowly consider problems. Tenpower may help to find solutions. Tenpower is vital to not make wrong decisions.

  23. PANCHASHEEL Says:

    IN A PATTERNING SYSTEM, LIKE THE HUMAN BRAIN SYSTEM, THERE IS NO STRONGER MAGIC THAT CAN BE USED THAN THE MAGIC OF REPETITION.

  24. Arthur Says:

    Today I will apply tenpower to help myself learn an accounting workshop problem by repeating the problem ten times.

  25. Tariq Mahmood Says:

    By repetition, with this new concept I can learn new thinking skills and keep in mind all the time and make such skills as natural habit.

  26. David Says:

    Providing me with a way to check that my thinking is of an expected magnitude.

  27. Paula Says:

    Repetition x 10 times thinking = cvs to bvs.

  28. martin Says:

    I have applied tenpower to my life since first completing this course.
    I have applied it to many aspects of my life in particular my kung fu training. Since applying tenpower to my kung fu training I have gone from being a reasonably skilled student to a very very skilled student.

  29. Ken Marston Says:

    I can have ten times higher expectations of myself and others.

  30. Kate Says:

    By generating an increased amount of options or alternatives to a current situation, I’d be forced to think outside the practical, obvious, attainable ones and come up with ones I really want which would make me more positive and in turn more creative. It harks back to the question, what would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? Moving tenpower in would increase focus and streamline mental power.

  31. David McLaren Says:

    Repetition x 10 times thinking = cvs to bvs.

  32. michael Says:

    By stepping up or down in orders of magnitude when I think about a problem or solution. If I think about what I want to achieve, it’d be valuable to imagine how I might achieve the same thing 10 times over.

  33. Alex Says:

    By exaggerating 2, 5, or even 10-fold what would otherwise be a more conservative evolution.

  34. Beatty-Anne Says:

    We, as humans, naturally copy each other. I will make an effort now to be in a x10 better position to suround myself by x10 better people and I should then naturally have x10 better thoughts.

    there’s always something more, whether it’s better is dependent on my BVS.

  35. Liz Says:

    If repetition can create positive thoughts and outcomes, then can it not also do the opposite?

  36. School of Thinking » Blog Archive » “spaced learning” vs “massed learning” Says:

    [...] We encourage the strategy of repetition in SOT and recommend X10 as a powerful tool for repetition. We call it TENPOWER. You can click here for our lesson on Tenpower. … [...]

  37. Frank Paton Says:

    Repetition is a wonderful and well proven learning tool and this exercise reminded me of my early childhood. In the UK we were taught spelling and multiplication tables by this method and I can still remember the rhythm as the class recited the tables.
    In combination with CVS to BVS, the power of 10 should automatically make me think bigger and wider.
    I believe there are many situations in life where there is not much time to think, and it would be great to get to the stage where an automatic response would be superior to what it might be now.

  38. Francisco Rivas Says:

    Completely. I am trying to get the most of it in selling because I have always thougth that selling is not for me, and I need to sell in order to survive.

  39. Jane Says:

    Interesting, previous courses I have done revealed my brain to spend a lot of time in chaotic thought in and around a task and then a very short productive time getting the job done.It would be good to be able to shorten the chaos and increase the productive but I worry that there may be a creativity price to pay.

  40. Caroline Says:

    By progressing in leaps and bounds not in small increments.

  41. Daniel Says:

    Why have the military got that so right? I have done a small amount of training in the UK and I always liked the logic of their teaching philosophy, you even have to follow their predefined formula which is a real masterpiece in the classroom!

    The change in our part of the world (Europe) from Roman numerals to Arab symbols advanced mathematics considerably and brought ‘zero’ into our collectively acknowledged realm of thought. It is important not to get the use of a symbol mixed up with a more indepth meaning of something, however it stands to reason that even though there is ten of something there is no more or less than ten. So the zero, even though it is denoting void, increases the value of the number before it by giving the symbol (1 in this case) a approximate value against the matrix. It is only with an appreciation of what the symbols may mean that I could be considered to have a ‘Better’ view of the ‘Current’ situation, an assumption which nonetheless could allow greater depth of thought and appreciation of any given situation which should serve as nothing else than an expansion of my thinking skills.

    It doesn’t mean that my thinking will produce the desired outcome but that at least I have tools with which to work and try to evolve my thinking skills.

  42. WALTER EDEY Says:

    At the heart of growing is multiplication and not addition. We all know the story of the wise man who broke the back of the king by requesting a payment with a grain of rice that was doubled every day. If we are just looking at the earth from the earth we will be limited. It mus epand your perspective.

  43. Shan Guneratne Says:

    It is SYNERGY to the mind.

  44. Trev Says:

    Anyone else struggle with this DFQ? This lession has highlighted to me the battle between daily repitition and BVS ten power. Sure repeating the teaching of ten power helps with understaning and integrating the software into the brain. What i am thinking though is that by our daily repetition of rituals that we use to stablise our lives we stiffle our BVS ten power because of our comfort with our normal patterns.

    I guess this means that we should question (x10) our daily repetition to make our lives better and create new patterns in our life that are BVS.

  45. Dakora Says:

    by using ten power I can learn and make normal the habbit of making things better than I have always found them. I will be challenged to mak significant improvement to that which is available.

  46. Kevin Says:

    Think bigger

  47. David Bovis Says:

    I’ve taught communications from an accelerated learning perspective for a while now, using various anagrams to capture the key areas for short term memory retention and long term conversion etc. HORSESHOE is a good one (very lucky if used round the right way :-) ) – Humour, Order, REPETITION, Symbolising, Experience, Senses (VHF) Honesty, Observation, Exaggeration – relative to the 3 pillars of memory – Imagination, Association and Location, while remaining conscious of ‘Chuncking’ issues, to avoid loss through overload …. I have to say …..

    Repetition works!!! and without fail it has helped me ‘get used to’ the idea of tenpower – I like it – great concept – I will probably employ this in conjunction with De-Bono’s thinking hats when running strategic creativity workshops for large enterprise

  48. Russell Says:

    Tenpower is a great tool in removing the negatives in situation were you are looking at the posabilities

  49. Daniel Says:

    It helps provide a focus for my thinking, by making me think about what if I was to increase/decrease “X” by ten times. Trying to think about what “X” might be, even if you find that increasing or decreasing “X” might not be the best idea, at least gets you thinking about what really matters in a situation. “Where are the levers I should be pulling that will improve this situation?”

  51. Sam Dekok Says:

    You know I’m still not sure. But knowing Bertrand Russell might be involved sure has my attention.

  52. Peter Cahill Says:

    By thinking bigger. Think in multiples – 10 or more

  53. jamie Says:

    X10 repetition.

  54. Michael Little Says:

    1 By coming up with ten ideas I am getting used to thinking more
    2 By repeating something ten times I am burning in that pattern
    3 By doing an action ten times over I am getting the chance to improve it
    4 By using the Tenpower() function I am extending the solution space for a problem
    5 By concentrating on BVS = Tenpower(CVS) I can improve my life and reinforce the habit of thinking in that way
    6 By pushing you to quantify something about the situation
    7 By giving permission to take the time to think
    8 It develops the habit of perspective – things could be ten times better/worse
    9 By forming the habit of looking for more than one thing
    10 By setting a limit/target of things to consider

  55. brad Says:

    open multiple views/observations/options/possibilities in every area e.g. raising and guiding my kids, being innovative and proactive at work, life realizations and learning

  56. Shelley Says:

    always finding 10 alternatives to every problem.

  57. Shamir Says:

    Its a fact that repititions makes patterns more flexible to use.

  58. Marisa Says:

    I will try it with my daily affirmations…

  59. Irial Says:

    I can repeat things ten times – such as CVS2BVS – to leave them as an indelible mark on my brain. So I have them forever. And then use them forever. Tools endow intelligence on their users after all.
    I can programme myself to be a more positive thinker by repeating a series of positive mantras ten times every morning, say, or whenever I encounter a situation that would normally trigger a different reaction, I could recite a few. Then I would automatically see the positive side of things no matter what. Less negativity, less stress.

  60. Neville Dean Says:

    The power of Tenpower, by itself, is no more powerful than, say the power of prayer. Its power comes from only our intensity of use. If we commit to accepting Tenpower as a “meme” it power is without limit. Also repetition by itself is not enough – recency, frequency and intensity is how we pattern our brain.

  61. Bill Says:

    Hello,

    Okay – yes – I recognise the importance of drills – when learning Karate 30 years ago we used to practice set sequences many many times in order to imprint the patterns and motor skills.

    Musicians practice the same piece many many times – same idea

    Painters practice by drawing pieces of crumpled up white paper many many times.

    Juggling (I can do 5 balls and lots of tricks)

    Practice makes perfect – however for me with this thinking stuff it would have to be practicing thinking not just practicing by saying something 10 times in a row.

    Bill

  62. Ken Says:

    just overcoming inertia is incremental thinking
    power of ten is exponential thinking way outside the neural pathways that are engrained in our brain by cvs, allowing us to get to the bvs

  63. Carlos Trujillo Says:

    The tenpower ist a great tool, It allows me to improve my process of finding the best option for any challenge, improving the effectiveness of my decisions. in a scale of 10.

  64. Sirawat P. Says:

    If I step out and in a situation/thinking in my head for 10 times and look at it from 10 different angles, I should be able to see the same situation differently and can select BVS that I like the most.

  65. Adele T Says:

    Tenpower can add 10 times more energy to a plan that you already have and can be put into play 10 more ways. It would allow me to think outside the box and think thoughts never thought of before.

  66. Steve Says:

    Tenpower allows us to leverage what we already know and do into knowledge and actions that may currently be beyond our capacity to recognize. It is another powerful tool we can use to open ourselves to the possibilities we’ve been conditioned not to notice.

  67. Chris Says:

    85 becomes 850, becomes 8,500. What would I have to be doing to earn this sort of money. What attributes would I posess
    40 hr week becoems 400hr week, becomes a 4,000hr week. How do we get this many hrs in a week. I saw somewhere about nuclear time.

  68. Stuart Says:

    To improve just 1 step by 10times would make a drastic change.

  69. Louise Says:

    To strive to improve any idea/thought I have. Ten power would be great – but any improvement is a step in the right direction. hopefully the more I use this tool, the better I will become at this.

  70. Mihai K. Says:

    Gives me a better image of reality.

  71. G McKeon Says:

    Tenpower offers a framework to help understand how to move from CVS2BVS. I like the flexibility in adding a zero to help get this movement. The next question for me is one of judgement and learning to understand if I should be adding a zero or taking away a zero!

  72. Paulus Says:

    Wow think of the progression of tenpower if I could repeat the mantra ‘think differently’, or ’stop, listen, consider, action”, even the thought of it increasing my abilities tenfold is making my brain hurt!

  73. Vinod Says:

    It moves away from incremental thinking to look at quantum jumps in improvement. We can visualise a 10x times view of the situation – then aim to achieve it

  74. Zeglar Says:

    I will not just settle for an improved better option, the solution I am looking for must be a factor of 10 better.

  75. Stephen Boon Says:

    I now have a satellite type view of the situation and can move to a better view.

  76. Kerrie Says:

    There are at least 10 other ways of dealing with an issue or a problem or a situation. So if we apply the cvs2bvs, then I will attempt to find at least 10 bvs ~

    1xcvs=at least 10xbvs

    0 adds thinking power!

  77. linda Says:

    10power means that I don’t settle for the way things are and that I continually explore new ways of doing and seeing things.

  78. Julie Says:

    -X10 negative thoughts and doubts
    X10 positive thoughts and putting them into action

  79. nevsmith Says:

    Thinking Power 10 actually works…It worked in a sales situation for our struggling manufacturing Company just last week. We had just completed a CVS BVS meeting when I received a large Order which I definitely attribute to POWER 10.

  80. Hector Says:

    If we could set or program a skill in our brain just by seeing it or reading about it we would all be invincible geniuses, X10 is what differentiates a genius in any skill from the normal Joes.

  81. Russell Says:

    Tenpower forces me to look for quantum changes in situations or events (10CVS) not incremental changes,however if I can’t find a quantum change I will take an incremental BVS and build on that new CVS

  82. Marct Says:

    I espouse the system of ten. I practice it. For success and prosperity.

  83. Faisal Says:

    I have know it sounds great, however, so far I have been unable to actually apply this to something practical. For example, I have been preparing for GMAT, but don’t know how to apply this to my studies. This is just one example. I am looking for some guidance to actually applying this concept to different areas of my life.

  84. Michael Says:

    Ideas are limitless.

  85. Ron Says:

    Tenpower gives me a way to break out of the comfort zone that I tend to settle into. By recognizing that there is x10 BVS than the CVS, I can expand my awareness and think about ways to implement x10 processes.

    Beyond that, I can use PRR x10 to add my own patterns, rather than allowing others to program my brain with their repetitions. That puts me in control of situations and gives me the ability to take actions on the new thought patterns.

  86. clive Says:

    always thinking on how can do things better more effectively

  87. Peter Says:

    I’m concentrating on creating a new personal trajectory by taking more actions and contacting more people about ideas I’ve had…each time it irrevocably alters my future…

  88. Erik Says:

    I must always use x10 thinking approach to every action and decision I make in other to expand my efforts. This will evolve new brain patterns.

  89. karl Says:

    earth is too tiny to the universe.
    thinking outside the square by practicing bvsx10.

  90. Carey Rudd Says:

    Sales will increase if I constaly seek out 10 more prospects

  91. Lawrence Lee Says:

    X10, +10, -10, /10
    chose 10 as my favourite number; 10, 10, 10

  92. Garry Says:

    Tenpower = X10 can help me create new brain patterns to evolve my thinking skills by applying Repetition for any New Idea, Thought, or Pattern I may so desire to Change, Adopt, or View Differently … hence, New Behavior, New Perspective, New Thought / New Thinking.

  93. Ethann Castell Says:

    Using Tenpower requires that I move my thinking to a new place, not bounded by the current view of the situation. This is truly thinking outside the box.

  94. Annette Says:

    Repetition, Repetition, Repetition …
    When I want to embrace a theory or idea I will post it on my fridge, on my desk and will think about it again and again ’til the theory or idea simply IS.

  95. Dakshini Says:

    To constantly and continuously expand the horizons and parameters of any Idea, to explore depth (times 10), to explore height (times 10) and to explore the multi-dimensionality of all situations.

  96. Chris Says:

    By repitition, if I apply the x10 theory to anything I learn, i am creating repitition which leads to increased learning or understanding of a skill. if I apply this to all learnings i will program my brain not only on that desired skill or piece of info, but for the use of x10 as well.

  97. Heather Heald Says:

    MMMM…10x the love, 10x the gratitude, 10x the ability to empower and produce positive change with anything I choose to focus on….powerful thoughts, thank you!

  98. Steve Says:

    Repetitve thinking about thinking using tenpower will make thinking about the right things second nature. I will endevour to do this.

  99. Karl Says:

    Apparently by repetition?!

  100. Amanda Says:

    10 more pages of a book I’m studying with 10x more retention with 10x better recall of information, every day will enable me to learn more in less time becoming a master of the subject in a shorter time span.

  101. Lizette Says:

    I am causing a sudden lift off effect on my new affirmations, by adding “X10) – I will now also include this habbit in my daily numerical observations, just to get a solid base on the powerfull implications this has.

  102. Trent Leyshan Says:

    Every day for the next ten days I will write down and learn the defintions and meaning of ten new words. After ten days my brain will be programmed with 100 new words. My ability learn, communicate and articulate ideas will be improved dramatically.

  103. Karisma Says:

    Tenpower: this means I am ten times more powerfull than I thought I was; ten times more smarter; ten times more intuitive; ten times more of everything than I thought I was.

  104. Saranya Kumar Banerjee Says:

    Currently I am thinking(using six hats, toloposogo method) 5 times a day now with this tem power , I will try to think 10 times a day and this in turn will strengthen the patterns of the brain.

  105. xan Says:

    I think that tenpower should be considered as an energy that could boost up our brain power ….

  106. Mike Lakeland Says:

    I have always been more comfortable with the incremental step improvement concept but the power of ten makes those stretch target seem far more achievable and realistic.

  107. esselle Says:

    Tenpower can help me by realizing when and where I should stop, step back and begin thinking another way.
    Each time that I will stop in that way, I can find 10 new solutions for the sole one I would have found before.

  108. Wayne Smith Says:

    Rather than accepting one solution to a problem, I can name ten potential causes, solutions, plans of action etc.

  109. Peter Says:

    Repetition
    Repetition
    Repetition
    Think big very big
    Think small very small

  110. maria Says:

    Tenpower is shown as an exponential concept in either direction, so once I have identified what component of life could do with improvement, and apply the tenpower concept to action, I will experience quantum leaps in the product of tenpower application.
    I have observed this already since applying my tenpower plan from the previous lesson; whereby the tenpower has resulted in much greater increase in my time management than just ten minutes every 100 minutes; my focus is sharper, I am thinking before acting from cvs to bvs and my time is very efficiently used, giving more spare time. I also feel my problem solving perspective has altered in a profound way as it is thinking from a much broader, more creative perspective to solve problems. I feel my thinking is less arduous, more efficient, less anxious, more certain in the uncertain, less dogmatic, yet achieving more of the mundane ‘paper’ essentials of one’s life.
    So it is creating more relaxed, more efficient learning pathways; that have more stable, engrained results in outcomes. I feel this is exponential in effect and creates/sparks different areas of the brain that respond well to this type of learning and enables the quantum system abilities of our brains; like learning a new geographical route and navigating unseen, wild terrain to establish safe, effective pathways. I believe this could be used to create healing pathways in the brain also, whereby we are able to self initiate self healing and self rehabilitation.
    It is excellent; i am very pleased and appreciative of this knowledge and it’s resultant betterment upon my life.

  111. Harold Says:

    Inspiration or motivation to find approaches that are better by factors of 10 than the current approach. From cvs to bvs. I’m intrigued.

  112. Barrie Says:

    Cognetics provides perspectives not answers.

    Perspectives suggest continuous movement whilst answers suggest finality, found, a point of arrival.

    Power of 10 = further and further, on and on. Mind boggling. Gosh. Thats exciting isn’t it fellow class/team mates :-)

  113. William Says:

    Now a can recognize the power of ten. The repetition, repetition, repetition is something we have always done not being aware of it. Then, I can use the tenpower to go outside or inside of myself

  114. Annelies Says:

    the bvs is 10 times better than the cvs. I have to tell myself to multiply my thoughts, idea’s by 10. What a great stuff, should come out of this.

  115. Brett Gilbee Says:

    Tenpower is a proactive way that provides opportunities to move forward with a sense of creative productivity instead of floundering and making excuses.
    Tenpower empowers those that have in the past been overpowered and as a consequence underpowered to move forward.
    With Tenpower the glass is always half full and a positive reflection can always be considered.

  116. Bigg Ogunyemi Says:

    By thinking both backward and forward!

  117. Emma Says:

    Asking yourself 10 questions before taking on a new task, a new bill of information, a new concept, a new path in life, etc.:
    1. What am I doing?
    2. Why am I doing this?
    3. What is the ultimate goal?
    4. Who has done this before?
    5. How will I do this?
    6. How can I do this better?
    7. What tools do I need to achieve this?
    8. Where/what do I need to go/do to obtain those tools?
    9. Does it all still make sense?
    10. Again, how do I do it better and faster?

  118. Simon King Says:

    Our new CEO has asked us to think how we can move to £400,000 profit a year within 3 years. I’m going to suggest that this is not stretching enough and we should be thinking how we can achieve £4,000,000 profit within 3 years.

    This will really pull people out of their ‘traditional’ mindsets!

  119. Dave Says:

    Thinking, “How can I make this better?” can sometimes work, but thinking, “How can I make this ten times better?” puts you into a different thinking place!

  120. martin reid Says:

    Tenpower creates an intrenched pattern of repeating a skill to perfect it.

    I have recently applied ten power to both my business and kung fu with ‘better than before’ progress and results.

  121. ashok gupta Says:

    When one goes through the Tenpwoer process, one gets exposed to multiple ideas and helps you think SBC. Repition programmes the brain and writes it permanently. It fescilitates over coming habbits, prejudices and other mental blocks. One can also explore the world beyond by exposing one to different perceptons

  122. Treasure Says:

    Tenpower gives me the freedom to think outside the square, to question those thoughts and evaluate what will work best. The possibilities are limitless.

  123. Monty Says:

    Ten times more thought energy using the power of repetition to focus on a concept, an idea or even other thoughts will enforce new and developing patterns to become entrenched beneficially as a fresh way to evolve and strengthen those processes.

  124. David Harrland Says:

    Move exisiting boundaries out to at least consider.

  125. Althaf Hussain Says:

    I can leverage my time many many ten times by leading and empowering immediately 10 ambitious,disciplined people lead and empower another 10 such people and so on in accumulating riches;riches in terms of money and riches of higher value than money.The concept I am using is that the greatest reward for man’s dedication to excellence is not what he gets from it ,but it is what he or she becomes through it. Cultivate integrity of character by integrating one’s self to universal principles of life and succeed with wisdom and abundance mentality !

  126. Amrita Jairam Says:

    there is always greatness about the power of 10… any small think if you multiply with 10 it will look really big…… zero does not have a value but if u put 1 beside it…… it values lot more…..

  127. Andrew Says:

    Most improvement is incremental, particlualrly in business. It may be low risk but the payback may not be worth the time. x10 thinking challanges me to think of dramatic or step change improvement. That sort of increase must be worth the effort. The challange is defining the BVS

  128. Rabin Bangaar Says:

    As I think of not accepting my CVS and want to move to BVS, I will now be looking at a minimum of 10 BVS’s instead of a few BVS’s. This has to be better for me overall.

  129. claudia Says:

    by embedding in my mind a new way of improving my skills at contacting x10 more people, making x10 more sales, doing x10 more listings, having x10 more success, having x10 more fun

  130. Pradeep Singh Says:

    zero is king of all the numbers it increases the value of any number in the game by 10times 100 time 1000.time …. its the game of Repetition..
    on the other side of mirror zero is a single digit number with value nil but when repeated it changes the value to markable point of that digit.

  131. panchasheel Says:

    zero alone does not have any power but if used with any number it increases its value , its like a catalyst which increases the reaction without itself getting involve or getting anything for itself
    hence power of zero it higest , but we don’t actually realise it .
    zero gives power to other numbers

  132. Jordan Says:

    Ten power reminds me ten times a day: Repitition+10X= Repitition0

    Or would it be to the power of ten? :) Are there itty-bitty floating numbers in my OS’s system characters?

  133. Chris Parkinson Says:

    moving from the current view of the system to a better view of the system

  134. LJFWolffe Says:

    I can find ten new ways to do something — or figure out how to make something take 1/10th as long. Moving the decimal point around can give you all sorts of options!

  135. Bev Says:

    Using the power of ten through repetition provides a systematic approach to improvement

  136. Vincent E Epps Says:

    By identifying or determining (oh well) a CVSTOBVS of any particular goal and repeating the new practice ten times daily.

  137. David Gillespie Says:

    By instinctively looking for the “zero” options in a given situation.

  138. Sandra Says:

    Repetition and adding zeroes

  139. RAVEENDRAN Says:

    repetation is the first law of learning

  140. Colin Says:

    Tenpower can help you to practice , Repetition and Rehearsal by ten times. It will give you an unfair advantage over other human beings. When you study, the more the repetition the clearer you remember or the more you practice the better you become.

  141. Mark Says:

    It seems our habits allow us to perform at our present level, to lift performance, to leverage ones effort must involve the habit of constant improvement.

  142. Emily Says:

    By Practice, Repetition, Rehearsal ……

  143. Peter Spence Says:

    The power of 10 provides a discipline that will ensure that each of us adopts a systematic approach to our own development and performance. It is not good enough to be satisfied with the first effort or the first good idea. Through repeatedly pracitising and seeking improvement, we will perform better and, provided we are open-minded, will stimulate on-going improvement.

  144. Michael Minshall Says:

    Practice / repeat those brain patterns which are beneficial x10 & assiduously avoid any repetition of thinking which could lead to disadvantageous patterns.

  145. Cristiana Garita Says:

    By repeating continuously the behaviors or mental attitudes I want to set into my life until they become routine.

  146. Linda Says:

    Through repetiive use

  147. john buchanan Says:

    As Aristotle said, we are what we repeatedly do, Excellence then is not an act but a habit….so by repeating high level, high standard, excellent thinking patterns, then we can map our minds so. What allows me to think best? having defined, then keep repeating that process

  148. mario Says:

    i know in dance that repetitions are important. we learn that once we have done a particular routine it becomes muscle memory and therefore automatic. it therefore makes sense to repeat things in order for them to become automatic.

  149. Edwin Cobos Says:

    Through repetition ten power becomes an excellent tool to expand your brainpower and develop new ways to approach a situation.

  150. muss hernandez Says:

    it is a “thought workout” that empowers you to always find better solutions in any given situation.

  151. Maurice Johnson Says:

    Tenpower can create change in my thinking to a greater extent than simply trying something and then moving on to something else.

  152. Dave Says:

    Tenpower has me think and remember that there is a better view of the situation and even tho, right at this moment, just because i dont know what that is, i still need to think into that space and look for that better view…

  153. frankie Says:

    If you think on it and repeat your goal you are essentially changing your brain to focus on that particular aspect of what you are passionate about at that momment in your life.

  154. Abhinandan Ghosh Says:

    The power of ten
    The supreme authority to change any situation ten-fold to your benefit
    The 10power approach surely will make you the ultimate problem-solving machine….and make others look upto you in times of crisis

  156. martin reid Says:

    Ten power can help me when practicing my Kung Fu techniques and forms

  157. anka Says:

    . . . . practice

  158. Marilyn Says:

    Things get lost in my memory and hopefully by doing this X10 I will improve.
    Tenpower, when I want to remember something, someone, somewhere, somehow, important I can use tenpower to enable it to remain in my long term memory and be quickly brought into use when I really need it.
    Hopefully it will save me struggling to remember things I should know

  159. Terry Pernokis Says:

    For making decisions; I can try to come up with 10 reasons for taking a specific course of action, and 10 reasons for not taking a specific course of action.

  160. Glen Says:

    It can help me reduce turnaround times to 10th of previous time.

  161. Karen Says:

    Practice new trains of thought and repeat the mantra 10 times each time I catch myself thinking in old patterns.

  162. Sink Says:

    Practice

  163. Raimond Says:

    Perhaps viewing a problem at a scale other than in the context where you first encountered it can be seen as a kind of thought experiment. In the artificial environment at the new scale a new approach to the problem can become obvious which may otherwise have been elusive. Not to say that the first alternative will solve your problem but that the technique can generate possibilities which mmay help to understand the problem space more fully

  164. Onika Henry Says:

    Extending the time I spend in meditation, learning French and learning video/photography editing

  165. Drew Says:

    It can help me when im practicing a play for one of my classes,,,i can repeat the intire play 10 times and it will be in my memory forever.

  166. Sid Wales Says:

    Tenpower is a new concept to me – I have never been inclined to take such big steps before. Up to now I have chewed over an idea or problem maybe two or three times but that is hardly repetition ! I can give it a try but I feel that it might take a while for me to progress through a number of repeat tries at the same thing to get to a system of ten. I also think that my thinking would probably change as I go over the same thing again and again

  167. Mark Says:

    When learning Japanese vocabulary, repeat each word 10 times

  168. milca b. Says:

    By repetition practice and rehearsals one is actually inplanting the pattern in the subconscience and thereby is able to change and reshape it. With no objection from one’s subconscience one is able to reach BVC or be prepared to whatever sort of quantum leap he is setting his mind to.

  169. David Says:

    To avoid procrastination by repeating the task l need to commit to 10 times, to keep it more in the front of mind

  170. b willis Says:

    10 different ways of thinking about something, 10 new ideas, aiming for 10 x better, 10 positive thoughts – tenpower creates a target and it’s easy to remember (at the moment I probably need to consciously think about tenpower 10 times a day – maybe in ten days it will be more natural!) Very powerful idea, just thinking about it is motivating . . .

  171. Scott Brown Says:

    it’s exponential

  172. wairimu Says:

    once I master how to maximize on tenpower the number of things I can achieve are virtually limitless and I will always be ahead of the pack by a factor of ten.

  173. Warren Says:

    its another strategy for remembering things – I usually use associations or mnemonics, although sometimes I repeat things. Hopefully repeating the right things will help me to stop repeating my mistakes – as this seems to be my current pattern :)

  174. Helen Says:

    By factor 10! I will try visualising whatever I am learning, focussing on either 10 times or times 10! Watch this space!

  175. eng.manal Says:

    maybe by repeating my goals ten times every day

    repeating my do list 10 times every day .. maybe i will reduce the time 10 times :)

    think of these materials 10 times more

    teach 10 person the new facts I learn in SOT about the thinking skills

    pray to god 10 times every day to help me creat new brain pattern to evolve my thinking skills.

  176. Tiffany Says:

    The neuron receptor pathways in my brain will increase tenfold with every new thing learnt and with every repetition of this.

  177. NANA AMPEM-DARKO OWUSU Says:

    Tenpower is the art of repetition,pratice and rehearsals
    which unlocks the potential involved in building and developing skills

  178. George Says:

    This advantage can be illustrated by the way I followed the advice of the film “The Secret” and posted a reminder of a big earnings goal for the year. The film talked about $100,000 …my employer who gave me the film to watch was thinking along the lines of $1,000,000 …so I set a goal of $10,000,000 :)

    Setting this goal automatically made me recognize the ways to earn this much …which resulted in me being involved in much bigger deals than I would have settled for with a $1 million or hundred thousand dollar goal.

  179. pauline Arneberg Says:

    I’ve used 7 repetitions for a long time; now I’ll try 10. I don’t know much about subtracting 10.

  180. jeremiah chin Says:

    the power of ten is very effective if the mind can grasp it. It is indeed a quantum leap by a thousand percentage forward or backwards. When we think to the power of ten, we potentially increase our ability to as it were , imagine beyond our boundaries. That’s awesome.

  181. Barry Counsel Says:

    The way I see it, in order to make any change I firstly must be able to have some mechanism for becoming aware my automatic reactions or responses. Reactions and responses which are largely invisible to me because they are so well embedded.

    Tenpower is a great mechanism to give “pause” and from there a line of response or inquiry which was not available to me from my automatic self. The great outcome is that the more tenpower is used by me the more I am able to begin journeying from one set of neural pathways to a new set. Tenpower is a tool for spiralling up.

  182. Tiffany Conroy Says:

    Knowing that repetition has always given me the best results, I am going to continually visualize the tenfold expansion of positive things coming to me and ideas. I will also visualize a tenfold recession of unwanted things and thoughts. I could also put greater or lesser distances between those things and myself. If I need to remember something important, or even memorize something I can repeat it ten times, to ten different people or ten times a day.
    When I was in high school my friend, Helene told me about a world she created called “The Land of Ten Ten” or “10:10″. Either way, she wrote many stories about this land and drew many pictures of it. Since then, 10:10 has intrigued me. I tend to take note of that time, and recite that number when no others come to mind. The seed of tenpower has been sitting in my brain for quite some time, and now I have the power to utilize it. When I need to think about something, I will just visit my Land of Ten Ten.

  183. Irial Says:

    The CVS is not equal to BVS – that’s a given.
    Repeating things 10 times is a powerful mechanism that clearly cuts a way through the jungle of inprecision. When we learn something and repeat it ten times we know it well. However if we know that the CVS

  184. Michael Says:

    I want to learn how to establish good companies. So instead of struggling to do it just once I will do it 10 times.

    I want to make my life better, Instead of helping only myself I will help 10 others also.

  185. SMurph Says:

    Will 10 be enough for me or will I need to add another zero. I find it very difficult committing things to memory and usually write post it notes to help me remember important information

  186. Peter Henson Says:

    Repeating things 10 times gives me 10 opportunities to look for a better option.

  187. Gibby Says:

    Tenpower – the magic number of the School of Thinking. A reminder to use repetition x 10 to createa habitual way of thinking which creates a shift from “What shall I do next?” to “What should I be thinking about next?”
    If CVS = Red
    then BVS x 10 = Green

  188. Catherine Warwick Says:

    Frequently repeating new information has always helped me learn new things. Being a linguist I need to constantly repeat new words and sounds. I’ve never consciously added a zero to repetitions nor have I asked my students to repeat things exactly 10 times.

    Using tenpower could strengthen the neurological paths being made everytime a repetition is done. Pathways are created in millions of ways every day – the more these are repeated the stronger their foundations. Equally habits in thinking and learning can be established so that they become embedded and thinking becomes automatic instead of an effort.

  189. patrick Says:

    by repeating say (for example) a name 10 times in my mind can help to lock it into memory. To repeat a goal 10 times also would help bring it into focus more.
    In meditation or visualization repetition is very effective.

  190. Heather Says:

    As when you learn to drive you make complex movements which you barely think about, they become second nature.
    So with thinking skills , if they are practised enough they become second nature.

  191. Sinkari Says:

    The brain gets more used to something the more you do it. By doing things in tenfold your brain learns to keep every detial. This is important in bettering your thinking skills.

  192. Sheila Leshed Says:

    It might help my flagging memory to repeat things ten times, as well as all the other strategies I employ….

  193. David C Says:

    Tenpower helps to ingrain anything that we may need to recall by making the thinking patterns “second nature”. I remember that I really learned to drive only when I no longer had to consciously think of what I had to do. And that came about by repetition.

  194. Julie Bungey Says:

    I think this is the number of reinforcements I need to help me put the things I need to do in place. I have used the power of three before so I can see how increasing this to ten can really help.

  195. catherine Says:

    I think I’ll struggle, to be honest. I’ll try. I’m a language teacher and I learn new words or people’s names by focussing and making my brain really learn whatever I’m trying to memorise. I find students write things out or repeat them lots of times without really engaging their brain. It has always seemed to me that it’s the effort of making your brain engage that makes learning effective. I’m prepared to be proved wrong, though, so I’ll try 10 repetitions instead to see whether that will work as well for me. I think it might make me focus for slightly longer than I feel I need to, which might be effective.We’ll see.

  196. Brako Jones Says:

    in soo many ways,like the ability to initiate new ideals as i have done with just few thinking

  197. shelley Says:

    Tenpower, when I want to remember something, someone, somewhere, somehow, important I can use tenpower to enable it to remain in my long term memoryand be quickly brought into use when I really need it. It will save me struggling to remember things I should know

  198. carol Says:

    Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.

  199. PJ Says:

    make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition make better thinking a habit through 10 fold repetition

  200. Andrea Mitchell Says:

    If I could reduce my workload using tenpower, this could lead to new brain patterns to develop my thinking skills, in that I qould feel more energised.

  201. Joseph O'Brien Says:

    When I find myself thinking about something, the simply act of multiplying it (or dividing) by 10 can help me to break free from the way I would normally think about that same situation.

    This will enable me to start thinking in new patterns, looking at problems in different ways. In time, these new thought strategies and approaches will become second-nature to me.

    Tenpower as a tool makes it easier for my brain to “free-think”, and not be bound by the “standard” ways I might look at something.

  202. Arthur Says:

    BVS = CVS x 10

    I have made up a little black & white card with this thinking skill formula on the card and placed it around the house and in the car.

  203. alex Says:

    Tenpower advocates repetition to the tenth degree. Repetition in turn creates habit which rather awakes us to the fact that we need to be careful about what it is that we repeat! I therefore feel I should use tenpower to ingrain the best thinking patterns in the market. I should repeat at least ten times those thinking behaviors that enable me to arrive at the best possible solutions. That is, rather than just merely use data intelligence where the question is ‘what should I do next?’, I should be asking,’what should I think about next’ which is actually an aspect of game intelligence. Or even better to ask,’How can I better think about what I should think about next?’

  204. Festus Pawa Says:

    Repetition! practice! I need to remind myself to repeat, repeat, repeat .. practice, practice, practice . ….

  205. James Says:

    practice, perseverance, not just doing enough, doing much much more than enough

  206. Carlo Says:

    Repetition

  207. Yanni Ng Says:

    perhaps going through a chain of ten repetitions stimulates the brain cell which create new brain patterns to evolve thinking skills…

  208. Pete Says:

    The secret of joy in work is contained in one word – To know how to do something well is to enjoy it!

    Use Ten power to do something well!

  209. Magnus Runsten Says:

    I sometimes find it hard to handle the infinite opportunities in life. I am very open to new experiences and I am constantly trying to challange myself with new experiences. New experiences generates new thoughs…however new thoughts drift away far to easily as other new experiences take their mental space. The power of repetition should allow me to better remember new ideas so that I can better make use of them.

  210. Andy Says:

    By training the habit of thinking on a far greater scale than I’m currently using, I’ll be setting in place structures and conditions that make greater results inevitable.

  211. Larry Says:

    Using 10 power in all my daily learning activities will eventually become a habit that I apply to all that I do.

  212. John Says:

    Tenpower gives value to making changes. When weighing whether to change, the greater the value of the change, the more reason there is to change. If the new brain pattern is ten times better than the current brain pattern, then there is much more reason to change than if the value was only twice as much. Giving value to changing brain patterns gives reasons which then gives the impetus and energy to change the brain pattern.

  213. Liz Searle Says:

    After meeting a new person, one could look directly at the person and repeat their name 10 times, thereby negating the standard reason “I’m no good with names”.

  214. Linda Says:

    Repeat the thinking skill I want to become a pattern ten times and once the pattern has been established work to improve skill by 10.

  215. Frederick Says:

    Tenpower can help to emphasize on a particular target. Using tenpower will catalyze my thinking skills, thereby providing me with a new brain for thinking.

  216. Philip Littlewood Says:

    Having read some of the responses, I noticed that many look for more, which can be seen as a positve, but I also see that using the power of ten to do something 10 X less, will change my patterns as well. I too, learnt a lot from being in the military and developing skills by Repetition, Practise and Rehearsal, as a Swimming Coach, Technique is devoloped the same way, so as, when the swimmer is in race mode and at maximum effort, the learned patterns come into play. It is called Nuero Muscular Patterning.

  217. Justin Hamman Says:

    For me something as simple as remembering peoples name would be great.

  218. Lionel Nicholas Says:

    Agree that it needs to be the right thing that gets repeated.

    But, nevertheless, constant repetition is certainly a good discipline.

    For some elements (a piece of music, speeches) I find that repetitive visualising helps lock it in place

  219. Andrea Says:

    I’m definitely balking on this one: it needs to be the RIGHT thing repeated ten times – and I need to be sure I’m operating within the range that will give me the outcome I have in mind before I devote time to repetition.

    Along the way there need to be glimmers of ‘Yup. This is getting the results – even in a beginner’s way.’ to encourage continuation and refinement.

    It takes a HUGE amount of conscious effort to reprogramme. (Just try fixing a wrongly memorised/repeated piece of music in the correct way to feel the power of habit and automation…)

    And after that – I don’t yet know how this process can help me form specific evolutionary brain patterns, though I’m willing to experiment.

  220. Mallikarjun Iyer Says:

    By thinking of what you want to create, repetatively. At least thinking about it not less than 10 times before starting off.

  221. anthony Says:

    Using CVStoBVS x10 on a daily basis keeps it in the short term memory therefor the brain creates new pathways and your thinking skills are improved. Like the old adage Use it or lose it.

  222. Patrick Lapierre Says:

    By using it regularly

  223. tyrone Says:

    If I ever experience low motivation or enthusiasm I can apply the tool of 10 power to move myself out of that negative state.

    10 power can get me started when I don’t know how to get started.

  224. Wilhelm Says:

    believe in your limitations – and they are Your´s!
    my power ist tenfold bigger than I use to think.

  225. Jeanette Says:

    There is always room for improvement and 10 times is better than none. This is a very positive message and already makes me feel good about what I am about to try for the future.

  226. Miroslav Says:

    by using it

  227. Marco Dessena Says:

    Practice makes perfect!

  228. Suzanne Rotolone Says:

    Appling the 10 power it will be possible to reduce my problems by 10 and increase my BVS’s by 10.

  229. Andy Parkin Says:

    By repeating it 10 X 10 and then seeing the change before my very eye, feel the change from within and experience the positive changes for the rest of my life.

  230. Rog Says:

    By practicing, repeting and rehearsing my thinking skills at least 10 times during at least 10 days until I have created a new thinking pattern or a better view of the situation.

  231. Leo Says:

    By repeating something 21 times it will become a habit and therefore establish a new brain pattern. Focused Repetition results in Positive Change. If I can apply this approach to 10 situations I will improve exponentially in my thinking processes and their outcomes.

  232. Andy Says:

    Tenpower thinking gives me the chance not only to seek the 10x Better View of Situation but to believe that there may be 10 Better Views of the situation! Any one of these BVSs could also be ramped upwards by TEN! If this spark of thinking can produce so much BETTER THINKING, then surely by practising such thinking 10 times a day (or 10 x 10!), then the chance of slipping back into old ways of negative thinking are eliminated. When my brain starts to see the results of TENPOWER then it is ten times less likely to want to stick to the CVS!
    Already I like this thinking!

  233. Chuck Says:

    Ten Power gives a tool of measurement to thinking and a motivation to exercise the power of imagination.

    What are the posibilities if you think 10 times Bigger?

  234. Kevin Gabriel Says:

    affirmations – not only by thoughts and words but also by doing

  235. Rashmi Says:

    By repeating ten times or more verbally or in writing, any new belief
    which should be implanted in the subconcious replacing old pattern, which can bring desirous results.

  236. Susan Says:

    by using repetition to replace ideas or beliefs that no longer serve me with ideas (that become beliefs through repetition) that will serve me

  237. Margarita Wynne Holden Says:

    By repeating ten times a new affirmation, or belief, in order to replace old thinking.

  238. Christian Says:

    Tenpower gives you new perspectives on things. This perspective can give you new ways of thinking develop new brain patterns. Ten times better than just thinking normally! :D

  239. Christopher Hawkins Says:

    Tenpower, and by extension any repetition, can aid memory, prevent you from forgetting things that you really need to not forget. The past is inevitably the engineer of the future, so remembering what was can help us better prepare for what will be.

  240. Chris Says:

    Using Tenpower to evolve patterns.

    The use of repetition in order to break out or in this case induce habitual thinking involves the course of practicing, rinse, repetition and rehearse. Then invovling ten power can help accelerate this process.

    When the above formula of repition is followed successfully then it becomes much easier for us to switch to the BVS. Furthormore allowing us to explore other ideas to improve it even more, by tenpower.

  241. John deChadenedes Says:

    Not sure…I’m working on it. I know from experience with Tibetan Buddhist meditation practices that you can actually change your mind through repetition, but it usually takes more than ten repetitions. In many of the mantra and mandala practices you make 100,000 or even 1,000,000 repetitions. The most obvious value I can see for “tenpower” is that it can break me out of habitual thinking. I may not believe (in CVS) that I can be ten times more effective but if I set that goal, imagine it happening, and begin envisioning what I’d have to do to achieve it, I’m already out of my usual or habitual pattern of approaching things. I was inspired by the work of Bucky Fuller when I was very young and he never acknowledged limits to human potential!

  242. Mary Says:

    Repetition, pattern, and rehearsal for the power of 10 to break old habits and thought patterns and develop deliberate ones that will move you more rapidly towards your goals.

  243. Simon Goodwin Says:

    tenpower gives you a boost it makes you realise that rather than doing something once, saying creating a website, why not make 10, why not create 10 videos, articles, whatever, it is something that i am now thinking about in everthing i do.

  244. h2o Says:

    By taking my thinking 9 steps further than I would have before.

  245. Corneliu Says:

    Repetition helps you create habits that could dramatically change your existence. We are already used to calculate tenpower so should be easy to see that any goal is attainable.

    If u want to make a million then make 1, the make 10×1, then make 10×10, then 10×100, the 10×1000, then 10×10000 and finally 10×100.000. So simple :) and gradually ! If u made 1 once, what can stop u redoing it ten times more?

    That way u can sweat talk your mind in doing tasks that otherwise would look daunting.

  246. carole Says:

    p.s. Is it a coincidence that the prime minister lives at number 10?

  247. carole Says:

    I can make my problems 10x smaller
    I can make my talents 10x better
    I sat and wrote down 9 things in my life that I want or want to be involved in this morning – so let’s think what the tenth one might be, it could be the one that gives me the “sight” I’ve been looking for. Then I can set myself the task of finding 10 steps towards each of these things.
    I’m liking the power of 10 it’s stretching me towards my potential

  248. Suganthi Says:

    Tenpower seems so radical that it might just shock me into an idea or solution that I would otherwise not wander into because of my conventional thought processes and ‘practical’ constraints.

  249. Gordon K. D. Yen Says:

    It will help create visions that are ten times bigger, more powerful and normally afraid to think of. Think Big and Dare to Think the unthinkable will become the new patterns.

  250. John Says:

    It can help you remember new skills and thinking processes. Particularly as the years go by it is more difficult to learn new things so repetition can help things sink in.

  251. Lydia Says:

    Like James I’m not sure of this one- ‘ repitition creates”new brain patterns to evolve your thinking skills” ‘???? Repitition will help you remember something but it wont change your thinking skills until you have understanding……and then application.

  252. Deborah Says:

    refocus synaptic links to more useful patterns through repetition.

  253. Di Says:

    Practicing repetition…

  254. James Says:

    I don’t know that it can, at the moment I’m taking your word for it. I didn’t feel the lesson today offered very much in the way of real instruction. Today you told me that the best way to learn was to do something repetitively. Fine, thats good advice and rings true.
    Then you said that tenpower is very strong and that I should use it repetitively. You failed to give any instruction in how it should be used in a practical sense. Multiplying everything by ten sounds great but I want some specifics please, some examples of tenpower in use.

    Or perhaps you just want me to regurgitate something about CVS2BVS or tenpower like everyone else seems to. Seriously, the biggest discouragement to continuing this course is reading the bleating DFQ responses – so many infatuated with the concept of thinking better and all they can do is spew your lessons back at you without any apparent comprehension. Or perhaps they understand far better than I do. Time will tell.

  255. Heather Says:

    By quickly separating the CVS from the BVS. By producing this separation, I can more easily evaluate the information and make decisions more quickly and with more confidence because I will have examined things in ways I had never considered before. This will start creating a pattern in how I take in information and move forward, but I need to remember to use it first.

  256. kofi Says:

    through the vehicle of repetition

  257. Rodney Says:

    Is Tenpower like Sevenpower?
    Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
    Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, until seven times: but, until seventy times seven.
    Just put a 0 on the end of any number is what I think Jesus is saying, try it and see if its powerful, if you don’t want to try it straight away on your brother try it on yourself first, if
    you find it works well, then why not try your brother or use the power of ten until you forgive the whole world.
    Just a thought, “I was thinking again” sorry someone has already thought of that.

  258. David Says:

    When identifying a problem, I need to religiously identify a BVS …but to ensure I maximise the result, I need x10 ideas of what might be a BVS and I might need to implement x10 changes to both solve the problem and also create a much, much better situation.

  259. Joseph Says:

    Ten-power is a learned skill that uses the pattern of repetition by ten to become a rhythm of harmony in my brain. . . or should I say three brains, upper brain, heart brain, and gut brain. (All three have more brain cells than any other type of cell.) When it comes to building brain power we need to create a rhythm that is in harmony with the process of using the patterns of our brains. All that surrounds us, and is in us, has patterns of rhythm. Ten-power helps us link to these patterns from the inside out and outside in. Using 10X it becomes easy to remember and program into a rhythmic pattern of repetition. It is a unique way to build an automatic process and once developed can be repeated on demand. Thanks to SOT I’ve been using this process for five years and my thinking is now in sync with using this powerful tool.

  260. David Says:

    10 is important, because by the time you are 10 orders of magnitude away from your original view of a situation, you have reached a complete reframe of your expectations. You should constantly try for an epiphany. It should be the norm.

  261. Paul Valentine Says:

    As explained, by repetition I create new software for my brain, the switch away from logical thought, or CVS2BVS.

  262. peter lamshed Says:

    great results are so more acheivable and accessable because my brain can see how they are formed, just multiply by ten

  263. Brian Lee Says:

    There are two ways.
    First, the concept of pursuing a ten fold improvement from the CVS is so dramatic that it shocks the brain into focussing only on the “big bang for buck” solutions / improvements. That requires radical thinking not conventional incremental improvement approach.

    Second, there is power of repetition. Repetition / practice is about generating discipline /self-discipline. Discipline is a key ingredient of succesful organisations – the discipline to stick to the formal process to get an outcome.
    I particularly like Michael alluding to the training discipline of the army. A great example of army discipline is the true story told in the movie Zulu. A story where around 200 English soldiers fought off around 5000 Zulu warriors. The English soldiers survived because they stuck to the routines in which they had been trained against odds that were far greater than 10:1.

  264. Simon Says:

    It gives an empirical measure of my thoughts/ideas. Something tangible in the abstract territory of ideas!

  265. Helene Mearing Says:

    Ten power; I believe could be where the answer is that I am looking for to implement new ideas and skills. Constanly I have been told it takes 28 days to form a new habit however after 2/3 days I am back doing the same pattern. To make Tenpower my official number and commplete 10 repetions even 10 times per day will obviously widen my thinking skills.

  266. Mark Says:

    By opening a world of boundless opportunities – it broadens your horizons and allows you to think of other options.

  267. Ben Says:

    By coming up with an extra 10 solutions/options that will lead from a CVS to a BVS.

  268. Janie Bell Says:

    Tenpower is the art of repetition which unlocks the potential involved in building and developing skills

  269. Charlie Says:

    Tenpower provides the basis for a quantum shift in thinking. The idea of looking for solutions that give a BVS 10x the CVS suggests an enormous shift in the creativity that can be unleashed.

  270. Anil Mehta Says:

    Mere extension of past experience brings about incremental improvements.For quantum improvements (ten power improvements), I will practise changing CVS to BVS. I will repeat this practice a number of times to create a new brain pattern and evolve my thinking skills.

  271. David Mackrell Says:

    To think bigger – or smaller – than you were ever brave enough to imagine. It’s about taking away the boundaries. You think you’ve found the boundaries? Boundaries don’t exist. Tenpower proves it. How big is the cosmos? Ten times bigger than infinite.

  272. Roy Figueroa Says:

    Whatever you are thinking about, you can think 10 times bigger, deeper, or longer. You can search for solutions that are 10 times better.

  273. Shosh Says:

    Before implementing the tenpower we have to practice it repeatedly and rehearse it at least 10 times in order to imprint it in our minds. So let’s think tenpower, tenpower, tenpower, tenpower, tenpower, tenpower, tenpower,tenpower, tenpower, tenpower – for at least 10 times a day for 10 days, and contemplate on it.

  274. anthony sim Says:

    Repetition can make your response instinctive and therefore remove the effort required. But you do have to do the initital work (of repetition or practice) to imprint the response first.

  275. Ruk Says:

    by repeatedly rehearsing an idea before we it into practice it thrusts our thinking process tenfolds by using the power of ten approach.

  276. rieka thetrasakti Says:

    Tenpower system helps to expand my thinking horizons. By consciously challenging myself to multiply options and possibilities by 10. By repeating this regularly – practice, repeat, rehearse we can explore all the possibilities that can make a better situations. Its not about trying something once its about trying over and over again.

  277. Linda Birmingham Says:

    Ten power is ecouraging repitition in our thought processes to increase our thinking ability.

  278. ruth Says:

    Tenpower takes the idea of failure out of the picture. If i am going to try something new, i might try once, twice, three times, and start considering that i can’t do whatever the new thing is. If i use tenpower, i have to try at least ten times, before considering the “i can’t” or “i’m a failure” or whatever. Ten times will give my brain a much better chance at digesting something new.

  279. chris Mooney Says:

    CVS to BVS icreases my options x 10

  280. Paul Akhurst Says:

    Counting to 10 before acting has always been a good maxim that encourages pause for thought ahead of an implusive response.

  281. Simone Says:

    Having a number(10) gives some boundaries. it gives a guide to how much practice is beneficial and a giude where to stop. I like the idea of applying it to always looking for at least 10 alternatives to ensure that you look for as many options as possible before making decisions.

  282. rogi Says:

    It probably treads a paths between the neurons, thus creating a trajectory of least resistance for a certain task. In some instances a 10x repetition may not be sufficient…

    I do not think repetition actually improves anyone’s thinking skills in general. What it does is that it speeds up producing results in specific (the repeated) cases.

  283. Jenny Roderick Says:

    Tenpower can help the thought process become an automatic response

  284. Merrick Says:

    I think the idea of tenpower is very powerful when it comes to setting goals. Simply aiming for improvement does not have much impact, but the use of tenpower enables a number to be put into the target, immediately making the goal much clearer. It also encourages the action necessary to achieve a much better result than might have been sought otherwise – 10 or 100 is significantly more than 1 or 2. The use of a number in the goal will also encourage me to quantify what I have now – if I want a 10 fold increase, I will first need to be clear about what I have now. For me, the overall result of this on my thinking skills will be to encourage better information collection and the selection of a wider selection of options for consideration.

  285. Steve Says:

    By reducing negative views / CVS by a power of 10 & by increasing positive views / BVS by a power of 10

  286. mst Says:

    Thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking then making decisions

  287. Juliane Says:

    The more you think about a problem or an issue, the morw ideas come to your mind and the more you use your brain in different ways.

  288. Billiam Says:

    The repetition of a pattern makes it more inherent in your brain structure, thus less novel, so it will be jumped to/used subconsciously. This I learned from playing drums, where a new pattern that is foreign and uncomfortable is learn’t, repeated until there is little difficulty/thought in playing it. Then when righting a song afterwards a variation of the pattern will naturally appear in part of the song as it will be fitting to the flow and comes out organically not forced.

  289. Peter Houlihan Says:

    New brain patterns are created through repetition. 10 times to do something for a change should be easy. 10 x 10 is harder but more effective. Keep in mind the power of 10 when looking to change the way things are

  290. dianne avenell Says:

    Tenpower can produce (hopefully) automatic responses

    eg

    I will think before I speak
    I will think before I speak
    I will think before I speak

    etc

  291. Chawn Says:

    My first thought on how to apply tenpower is in the realm of beliefs and belief systems. I am currently working on reprogramming certain beliefs that just don’t serve me and tenpower is an obvious tool to use to accomplish this.

  292. gerard Says:

    if you have little faith times it by ten then you can get what you want

  293. Devendra Jain Says:

    Repetition will help fix brain patterns which will make recognition of certain happenings faster. This may also lead to no new thinking, so I will need to look for a bvs as well.

  294. Maurice Grasso Says:

    with repetition an improvement in skills evolves, and becomes more
    of an autoresponse – as we have put ourselves in that situation before
    and can relate

  295. Jill Says:

    Ten power will encourage me to search further and look for more information; alternatives; possilbilities; choices; oppertunities.
    The advantage of giving it a number (x10) means i will strive for a fixed point that is always beyond where i am…therefore action!! It could as easily be x 15 but 10 is an easy number to remember and i have 10 fingers to check if i have 10 new ideas!
    If x 10 can be easily obtained the i need to look beyond for another x10. this will keep my mind open to ever evolving oppertunities.

  296. fahmida Says:

    by programing the brain through repetition
    the brain will automatically create new patterns of thinking

  297. Andrew Says:

    By using tenpower I can boost the power of the brain.
    repetition
    repetition
    repetition
    repetition

  298. Sharyn Turney Says:

    I would prefer to ask WHY 10 times rather than some mindless repetitions, because it is just that, mindless, and you don’t nesessarily learn anything to take you further toward your goal, creatively or pragmatically.

  299. Andrew Says:

    Interesting, ny first reaction to the question was to think of 10 reasons why tenpower would be ineffectual. If I am programmed so successfully to find reasons for failure, think what I could do if I just could multiply my efforts by -1!

    First a change in direction, then I will be ready to go for the order of magnitude.

  300. Lanabelle Johansen Says:

    Tenpower is a “doing”- reherseal,practice,repetition.Apply to CVS is not equal to BVS by using 10 different perspectives. Over a period of time, this practice will increase your thinking capacity.

  301. Abo Says:

    By using tenpower, my repeated repititions of whatever task I undertake makes my subconscious recognize this task as second nature. Neural interconnections are strengthened and reinforced with time; and then

    1. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    2. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    3. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    4. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    5. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    6. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    7. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    8. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    9. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.
    10. I become an expert at whatever task I engage in.

    You understand?

  302. Doug Murphy Says:

    by always thinking the cvs can be 10 times better

  303. Praveen Says:

    By setting my goals with respect to tenpower.

  304. Praveen Says:

    By Applying 10 power while doing things.

  305. Grant Says:

    Once a notion becomes a habit that action becomes automated, freeing up the congicent part of the mind to learn and apply new patterns.

  306. d Says:

    so my brain’s growth isn’t only limited by the environment, it can now be boosted independently

  307. Justin Says:

    by repeating the same pattern the brain will automatically reapply the technique when a similar situation evolves

  308. Simon Finlay Says:

    By applying it

  309. adriana Says:

    There is always room for improvement, if I am improving something using ten power some where someone else maybe doing the same. Therefore, what I improve tenfold, repetition and the power of ten will always keep my improvements ahead of the competition. There is always a better way and by thinking this and knowing this it prompts creativity.

  310. Robert Says:

    If I move up, down, laterally, diagonally by 10 in think distance/space from the current situation, my new perspective increases my cognition view. Resulting in acquisition of knowledge leading to wisdom. Doing this CVS to BVS continually when presented with situations will hardwire this response in. Then all thinking will fluid and never willing to be stagnant.

  311. Srini Says:

    Repetition leads to concretetation.

    If ten x power is being considered, and the brain is creatively associated with thought, then 10×10, 100×10 1000×10, and ever increasing creative associations. Is this where genius lives, in creating associations, where no bridges before seemed possible.

  312. Dale Says:

    I am a firm believer in positive repetition. I believe tenpower helps achieve any goal by making the goal a reality in your mind.

    My thinking is evolving.
    My thinking is evolving.
    My thinking is evolving.
    My thinking is evolving.
    My thinking is evolving.

    My thinking is evolving.
    My thinking is evolving.

  313. david anderson Says:

    To excel at learning new skills we need to reinforce the new knowledge, and through the tenpower system we gain an unfair advantage over others – this I like.

  314. jen Says:

    Tenpower is a booster

    mechanism for your brain software. repeition repetition repetition repetition repetition repetiton repetition repetition repetition repetition

  315. Rose Says:

    Tenpower will imbed patterns of thinking that will give me directions and mental templates for use in the future.

    The measure of abundance can be measured in tenfold/tenpower and used in every day thinking and technique practice.

  316. David Says:

    By consiously repeating certain doings in aquiring new knowledge. By adding up the number of times I do things in order to speed my progress up.

    Also, I hold a firm belief that everything I do intentionally will magnify in perfect harmony with my intention. And so, by giving just about everything a tenpower injection, the output would increase accordingly.

  317. Bruce Swanton Says:

    Tenpower increases one’s mental span thereby throwing up increased options.

    Bruce

  318. Masihuddin Mohammed Khan Says:

    By exploring multiple alternatives when faced with a problem tenpower can help eliminate the established pattern of logical/illogical, yes/no,/good/bad, black/white type processing by our necktop.
    By considering 10s or 100s of alternatives in a very short time should help in faster travel through the cognos and reach destinations “where no one has gone before”!

  319. P. Vijayachandran. Says:

    We all know success is a journey and not a destination. when we set our goal and achieve it with determination, we get sucess. We don’t stop with it and our interest and enthusiasm is multplied like the ten power…. to infinite.
    This pattern helped me in multiplying my thinking skills in all my actions to achieve my target of changing the paradigm of teachers to the process of learning than teaching.

    P. Vijayachandran.

    (and I didn’t block/copy)

  321. James Says:

    Tenpower may help to transform thinking for “better or more” (i.e. thinking as reacting to something – finite possibilities) to thinking for “a completely new quantum level” (i.e. thinking as creating from nothing – infinite possibilities)

  322. janice Says:

    when you repeat the same things ten times, your brain with capture the stuff and will automatically do it itself…Practice makes perfect.

  323. Frans Says:

    It is helping me out of the ‘why does every day feel the same?’ loop.
    It is also opened up a vaste range of oppertunities that ask the question: ‘Why can’t this be ten times better’.

  324. Vernell Says:

    I have been trying to incorporate the CVS2BVS x 10 in my conversations with others and to think 10 x bigger with more possibility

  325. Raknith Says:

    Tenpower can force you to think about a wider range of possibilities for any give situation. It places the brain in a situation where is must work harder, at least initially, to consider alternative courses of action. The brain will seek more peripheral options as it is stretched to consider the central problem. These more peripheral options are where innovation and creativity may be accessed.

  326. Deep Says:

    For each problem, I will now consciously generate ten solutions. For each already available solution, I may generate ten problems. As such, previously non-operant portions of the brain–a super-concentrated nerve–will be irrigated with neuro-electricity and become available for instant use on demand. The more I keep using the brain optimally, the better it will get with time, much like a muscle.

  327. Ramon Regalado Says:

    Always think ten times and ten things to consider when confronted with
    anything.Develop the habit of thinking first to engage in anything and look and consider ten parameters to do it.

  328. Mark Langworthy Says:

    1/Practice……x10
    2/Repetition…x10
    3/Rehearsal…x10

    Just by establishing a system or method of thought will create a new brain pattern/road map to follow & there by evolve my thinking skills.

  329. Jon Rice Says:

    I think tenpower is thinking out of the box…tenfold instead of just one. this invites your mind to look at different options.

  330. Brian D. Says:

    Repetition of something new or forgotten ten times, will help establish new neuro-pathways.

  331. Donna Saffren Says:

    To evolve, I can target repetition x10 of a desired, beneficial behavior, to ingrain new patterns. Conversely, I can decrease undesired patterns by being aware x10 (.01,.001…).

  332. Robert Says:

    By repeating something 21 times it will become a habit and therefore establish a new brain pattern. Focused Repetition results in Positive Change. If I can apply this approach to 10 situations I will improve exponentially in my thinking processes and their outcomes.

  333. George Kruszewski Says:

    Repeat new ideas, facts, info, concepts x10 times for brain pattern penetration and better recall.

  334. Chuck Says:

    By repetition using 10 Power I can ingrain new ideas, thoughts, beliefs and behaviors into my brain software.

  335. Michael Says:

    Repetition is practise.
    And as the famous golfer says; The more I practise the luckier I get.
    Repetition gives us the opportunity to get it better each and every time.
    Repetition is the art of keeping on, forging ahead, leaving nothing to chance. It is self acceptance. It is self responsibility. Positive automatic habits leads to self multiplication, and growth.

    Thanks for allowing me to repeat myself.

  340. sue Says:

    practice useful ways that work ten times…in tens of hundreds of thousands of situations.
    Giving 10 as an example gives a possible, reachable target to rehearsals of strategies, things to remember to do, things to pass on to others, wonderful things that should just be remembered.

    Mirabile dictum…I like that…I’v learnt that today!

  341. tan Says:

    Repetition

  342. Joshua Tadian Says:

    By repeating whatever I am focused on 10 times I will create new brain patterns, new nuerelogical conencitons, and a connection forged 10 times is probably alot stronger that a single repition.

    When practicing affirmation, it gives me a base number to work from. Each statement will be made 10 times form here on out.

    So I will recieve or achieve 10 times faster!!!

    To repeat a problem 10 times will allow me to concentrate on the exact details given and look at the problem from different angles each time I repeat the problem.

    ten power will be the trigger to push my thinking an perception of a problem just that little bit further.

  347. Ann Christin Says:

    Repetition will create new neural pathways in my brain. With repetition these pathways become “hardened” and firmly established.

  348. David Preston Says:

    10
    (Repetition)

  349. Fiona Says:

    Every thought we think makes an imprint, or mark, on the brain. Each repetition of that same thought makes a deeper imprint or mark. Eventually, through repeated repetitions the imprint is so deep and so permanent that we now think that thought without consciously choosing to think it. Thinking this thought has become a habit. This habitual way of thinking forms our beliefs.

  350. Beth Says:

    practice; choose ten things that are important…only ten! practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice…only ten…prioritize.

  351. pennie Says:

    10 x 10 and so on and so forth…naturally you will be able to let that sink into your powers of recognition and thinking will change…it is true that repetition does do something to the way we think certain life scripts we have written for ourselves and which cause us harmmm.
    as Hiel says, we need to rethink our problems and then repeat the positive so that is gives us manifold benefit

  352. Margaret Wells Says:

    Through replacement of current view to better view as a more automated response.

  353. giel van lankveld Says:

    in order to increase the outcome of an action by ten one should focus on more effective solutions. In order to do this one must contemplate problems more thouroughly. This leads to more experience with problemsolving as well as an improvement in the condition of your mind.

  354. Maia Apolonia Says:

    Just being aware of the concept is helpful. Realizing that repetition is so powerful for the brain makes me more likely and more patient to apply it when appropriate. Also, it is a quantum leap in thinking where normally I would think in 2-power, realizing the possibility of 10-power. e.g. When I’m looking to improve a system it opens up a large space, but not so large that I flounder.

  355. Fortino Garza Says:

    “Being aware of this moment reality” * 10 and 10 times each.

  356. Louise Says:

    Repetion creates new pathways in the brain, therefore new connections. These new connections in turn increase brain power circuits and new thinking flowing and expanding the pathways in different directions. It also anchors skills which help with expanding new thinking.

  357. Mike Says:

    Collapse thinking ruts, and establish more effective ways of thinking.

  360. PP Says:

    By forcing me not just to come up with the BVS, but by forcing me to come up with BVS x10!!

  361. Saleha Hussein Says:

    repetition will make something permanent…tenpower can help boost anything that i do or think ten times more!

  362. stephen Says:

    Repitition may change your neural pathways and embed the imprints deeply into your subconsciousness

  363. behnam Says:

    first repetion you can not understand or do skill,secound a little ,third a little more, anf in 10th repetion you have understood the skill very better than the firs repetion.

  364. Ralph Says:

    By repeating things ten times I construct a pattern that helps me to learn the thing I am repeating

  365. Jill Says:

    Repition creates patterns and improves thinking skills.
    I will think about applying ‘ten’ to my projects to come up with new ways of approaching old problems and come up with ideas for improvement

  366. Steve Barber Says:

    Tenpower makes me look for the other 9 answers that sit beside the first 1 I come up with.

  367. nancy Says:

    By repeating anything ten times I can imprint on my brain new and permanent information, improving my ability to remember and recall the new information.

  368. Mark Dihm Says:

    I think by repitition I will be able to stay focused on my goals and achieve the out come I want. I see tenpower as a great tool as I seems to get side tracked on a lot of things I’m working on.

  369. Mark Dihm Says:

    I think by repitition I will be able to stay focused on my goals and achieve them.

  370. Mike Says:

    Well, the repetition will build patterns and more strongly dictate my behavior. Manipulating my metrics to measure progress by the order of 10 will make me set audacious goals and push myself further instead of drifting in my comfort zone. I should be generating new ideas, working hard to think up new realities, devote more resources to expanding the status quo, in thinking skill too.

  371. Michelle Says:

    Okay, well I’ve just finshed a tender (note the inference ‘ten’ in ‘tender’) plus moved house, organised a magnificent conference for 250 people, plus a private 40th birthday, and now have a massive prensentation to do on Monday for making the shortlist for the tender.
    So – the answer to the question is that TENPOWER can assist me by concentrating on the focus points of the presentation by ROTE. This congnitive learning process will allow me (HOPEFULLY) to remember the core focal points of the presentation, without referring to notes, – given that I am dead on my feet…… I’m loving the TENPOWER……..Now, – what was I doing?????

  372. Dean Hopkins Says:

    CVS2BVS x 10.

  373. Patricia Says:

    By repetition and practise this method of using the power of ten will upgrade any performance of the brain by its very usage and if action follows thought then our goals will be easily reached just because of all the new energy put ito each new thought or pattern.

  374. Paul Says:

    I think i can use tenpower to really focus and direct the ideas i have to the next level. I am currently working on some new ventures and i believe that i can increase not only the sucess rate but also the profitability of each of these ideas.

  375. JIM CLARK Says:

    I’m not sure it can. Instead, I prefer “5ivepower.” Which is to
    ask a question at least 5 times. Which pushes the mind into
    looking for the insights or gremlins hiding in wait. Works
    better. Repeating something 10 times seems unnecessary—
    at least for m3.

    Using Tenpower repetedly every time in every idea of success will lead you to quantum leap ahead toward the success you are looking for, creating the new brain patterns developing your thinking skills.

  379. Stanley Says:

    Tenpower can help one to think out of the box by shrinking or enlarging your field of thinking by 10, 100 or even 1000.
    It helps one to move away from a static mode of thinking.

  380. Darra Says:

    By repetition…once you think you know the answer, ask yourself the question ten more times and try to think about it or answer it in ten different ways…this will make the brain have new patterns and teach you to think differently than you did the last time you asked yourself the question.

  381. Khalid Alqasim Says:

    find more options

  382. Mike Boyd Says:

    Don’t accept just one way of evaluating something…consider it 10 times from 10 different angles in 10 different places at 10 different times with 10 different people with 10 different ideas using 10 different tools in 10 different ways in 10 different postions to draw 10 different conclusions.

  383. Tamira Says:

    I imagine it will help me see beyond the ideas and steps that are only ever-so-slightly different from my original ideas, and instead propel me further, faster. This might aid me in seeing the bigger picture sooner, rather than wasting my time on the baby steps.

  384. John Says:

    The thought pattern becomes easier to find, quicker at execution, modified readily when linked to common elements in other thought patterns.

  388. katherine symmons Says:

    Utilizing the power of 10 for each thought and action that you take, will make you think of several different approaches and options, that if done consistantly will create new brain patterns and evolve thinking skills. ” CVS/BVS “

  389. Irene Pollak Says:

    It is interesting cause in the secret they say if you ask for something more than once it is due to you not believing that you will get it. But when i visualise what i want then what i am doing is refining it until i am excited and also clear on what i want so when an opportunity arises i know that it is for me. It makes my instant decisions clearer.

  390. Lisarob Says:

    Where we put focus is where we will get results.

  391. A Says:

    It means not settling for the mediocre – but reaching for excellence. Why get just better at something, when with practice we can be 10 times better. Why achieve just one milestone, when we can strive for 10. Its not about trying something once its about trying over and over again. Training the brain to extend itself.

  392. April Says:

    It can strengthen the new neuropathways being created. It can strengthen the connections between neuropathways or strengthen new connections and associations within my mind.

  393. David Anderson Says:

    I think tenpower makes you look at the bigger picture and look at more options.

  394. Phil Salt Says:

    Digging deeper into a problem. Magnifying by a factor of ten down into a deeper level

  395. Warren Hughes Says:

    Tenpower reminds me of a concept I came up with in college .. I called it overlearning. By overlearning alll my assignments, lectures, and examples, I was able to move from a mediocre student to an outstanding student. Anytime, later in my career, when I wanted to master a skill, i would “overlearn” it. Tenpower is over learning 10 times rather than the usual 3 times I practiced.

  396. Marie Says:

    By way of repitition, practice, and rehearsa.l

  397. Wayne Says:

    Ten power will make you look at different options when looking at a task as you would want to do it ten times better or faster. Using ten power will supply new creative options which intern will boost your knowledge.

  398. Ginger Hoffman Says:

    I’m not really sure!! Even though I’ve now re-read the article, the best answer I can come up with is that tenpower helps to create new brain patterns by practicing multiplying or adding zero, but I don’t really understand.

  399. susan kidd Says:

    I am with a wonderful company that believes in the power “Law of Numbers” And Repititon so I have been practicing in the tenpower for a little while just never heard of it this way.

  400. Morgan Says:

    By simply increasing the height of my goals far more than I can usually imagine. By just this alone I can push myself to increase my thinking skills drastically, and all sklls for that matter. The higher you aim the higher you can go.

  401. Dan Says:

    power of repetition.

  402. Eric Says:

    I believe that tenpower, connects the cvstobvs switch to the power of repetition! It gives us motivation to step into the unknown to pursue the BVS, by promising “ourselves” that it will be ten times greater than the CVS! At the same time it teaches us the importance of the power of repetition in learning anything! I believe that the fastest way to gain something, is to help someone else get it first! I have now combined this belief with tenpower! I believe in the Law Of Attraction, so whatever I give I will get back magnified “positive or negative”! That was my CVS, but now my BVS is to help ten people get what I desire! This in turn will increase my gains by tenfold, for I will be helping ten times as many people! What a beautiful system! I am using this in many, many aspects of my life! I am now giving ten times as much; smiles, compliments, hugs, favors, jokes..etc! It really awakens me to how powerful our minds can be when programmed properly! It’s amazing what you can do when you learn to think for yourself! QUESTION ALL YOUR BELIEFS, MORALS, JUDGMENTS! WHY? I WISH YOU THE BEST IN YOUR JOURNEYS THROUGH LIFE/EVOLUTION! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND THE POWER WITHIN YOURSELF! I LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH! PAY IT FORWARD!!

  403. Dean Says:

    10-power is not just a slight change – its a jump in magnitude, right out of the square that we might normally think within. Imagining a small improvement is one thing, but imagining a ten-fold improvement is a real challenge that requires action, change, creativity…

    10 x repetitions are a good way to train and remember and firmly plant new ideas and possibilities into the brain.

  404. Ray Says:

    Repetition enhances recall. If I repeat something long enough it becomes habit.

  405. Nisha Says:

    I appreciate the reminder that tenpower works in both directions…. rather than simply look at increasing by ten, I will also think upon ways to decrease by ten (decrease my carbon emissions, decrease my consumption, decrease my time commitments, etc.)

    This perspective is incredibly liberating!

  406. Les Wade Says:

    Tenpower has taken off the shackles of limited thinking, and combined with repetition there are huge possibilities not available before.

  407. June Says:

    I can decrease my ability to self limit by 10

  408. Carrol Says:

    It will help by giving me super booster brain power and from there, the possibilities are limitless.

  409. Peggy Durant Says:

    For one thing, you stop thinking about limitations. Tenpower gives you permission to think about all of the possibilities.

    Repetition is the Mother of Skill!

    How can you have a skill if you don’t repeat it? Habits like procrastination, laziness, brushing your teeth, sleeping at a certain time of day, etc. are all learned skills. Using Tenpower can change these habits into:

    Making a To Do list and finishing everything on it by
    the end of the day.
    Finding exciting things to do instead of looking at television.
    Improving your teeth brushing skills by making a brush that
    can floss and add toothpaste at the same time.
    Learning how much sleep your body really needs by altering
    the amount of hours each day (Monday (7), Tuesday (6)).

    Tenpower gives you permission to explore all the possibilities that can change your current situations and make them better (CVS to BVS).

    You change your brain patterns by thinkings new things and then manifesting them physically.

  410. DW Says:

    I’ve always been partial to 11 power myself…

    What 11 things do I want to do/say/promote that I want to have exponentially duplicated?

    If I don’t want it to be exponentially duplicated I won’t do it.

    Puts into prospective the power of the choices/decisions that I make.

  411. Gary Thompson Says:

    Helps to get orginazed, deceide what is realy important.

  412. Reggie Says:

    Tenpower can help me create new brain patterns by changing my perspectives. Adding a tenpower or subtracting a tenpower, and repitition, will boost brainpower and allow for easy recognition of patterns in the environment.

  413. Julie Says:

    I think it makes you analyze things even more then you usually would and try additional angles then you would originally explore.

  414. Jon Says:

    Any neuronet established once has a short life – that same neuronet reinforced thru repetition – 10x or more – has a chance to make it all the way thru to become a pattern…Assuming a pattern that produces a desirable action (s)…We got liftoff !

  415. barbara fisher Says:

    Instead of the little student enrollment, three, I shall think in terms of ten and then again, 10 x 10, etc.

  416. Mark Says:

    It trains your mind to think of BIG possibilities and to seek out many different ways to solve a problem or achieve a goal.

  418. Ken Tue Says:

    Think from inside myself of my body univers to outside my body ten times far in any direction. Use it in a case of how a product was made and what is it end to the bin and more how it become a dust in the earth. Make up your own history for your future in the life time. Let’s bring it on!

  419. Ross Hansen Says:

    Repeating those things I want to remember ten times is sure to improve my thinking, learning and remembering abilities.

  420. Michael L Klyne Says:

    When I consider the pattern of thinking that brought me to where I am today, it’s encouraging to know that things could be ten times better. Although I have often viewed situations from multiple angles before making decisions (we all do that) the idea that we could apply the power of ten to our decision making process certainly lays the foundation for effectively engaging the CVS2BVS strategy. As we learn to implement this method of mind management there will be an ongoing improvement in the outcome of our lives direction.

    The very power of our thoughts is truly enormous, and improved thinking will only make them that much more powerful. I am feeling more empowered already. :)

  421. Helen Shaw Says:

    Its just like a quantum leap and it opens you up to the possibilities that you can create

  422. Paul Akintunde Says:

    I could now begin to analyse my intended outcome in 10 different ways: for example I could visual a scene in 10 different ways before I settle on the one to shoot, and still imbue 10 different possibilities in that single one, all at the thought level. Normally I would settle for an appropriate solution

  423. gopi ghosh Says:

    tenpower brings improved skillsets, better understanding of issues in hand, better memory exercise and retention, ehanced learning, and quick retrieval/ recall of the knowledge.

  424. Michael Says:

    Now I know that ten power works, i just have to use it by the power of ten to make use of it to gain result in power of the. 8-D

  426. Regina M. Davis Says:

    The magic power of ten will improve my life by a hundred fold!

  427. Darren Behar Says:

    Try to come at a problem from ten different ways to find which is the best solution.

  428. Bani Sodermark Says:

    Doing the things that I am made to do and doing them often would make the new pattern ten times stronger, instead of being just blown away as the latest craze.

  429. Howard Feight Says:

    Any thought and or action worth doing is certainly worth having it multiplied by 10. Be it work or rewards, I believe that repeating it 10 times will magnify my results, and what are we doing if not looking for new results.

  430. jude Says:

    By feeling secure in the knowledge that a simple mental shift can have an impact of at least ten times itself and thereby act as a powerful causative agent in its own right, and because success builds on success, the confidence that is gained engenders patterns of even more deliberate thinking towards the utimate goals or outcomes. Tenfold.

  431. Rosemarie Gastaldello Says:

    try to look at things from 10 different perspectives, in doing so it opens up ten new ways to resolve or settle an issue

  432. Joseph Phillips Says:

    10 x anything is a large increase. I have already used ten power unknowingly throughout my life. Thinking of ten instead of one exercises my brain, which is always good for growth.

  437. Chris Perkins Says:

    Tenpower will assist in thinking in greater magnitude. It will allow me to think beyond my current view to a better view. From multiplying my thoughts from 0 to a power of 10.

  438. John Rehburg Says:

    I think tenpower could help by finding applications of thinking skills times 10. Find an area that could benefit from CVS to BVS (everything) and times 10, make it ten times better.

  439. Nicole Says:

    Say CVStoBVS out loud 100 times for 10 days. That’ll stick in my mind, and help me to look for the BVS any time I feel stuck.

  440. frank Says:

  441. Jo Says:

    I think that tenpower is about consciously practising its application to expand my thinking so that I more easily move from CVS to BVS.

  442. greg walters Says:

    Do everything by ‘tens’ more. Instead of one idea from everybody, have everybody come upwith ten ideas.

  443. sandra goodall Says:

    Think and think again.

  444. David Says:

    I think that using the concept of tenpower helps to expand my thinking horizons. By consciously challenging myself to multiply options and possibilities by 10, I open up a whole new range of thoughts. By repeating this regularly – practice, repeat, rehearse – I can set up a brain pattern that always provides a wider range of thinking.

  445. Matt Birtwistle Says:

    If nothing else I’ll remember the number 10

  446. Elijah Okereke Says:

    By increasing what I am doing by 10 I am adding a force to it that will become stronger and more potent with every use. By constantly using repetition and mulitiplying it by ten I become better. By doing this at a conscious level I build more grey matter which will assist me further.

    i’ve started playing with it. tomorrow at work i will do my best to remain conscious to it and “ten” the things that people say or do. i think that tenpower will expand my thinking and will get to think differently about the possibility of things.

  453. Chris Tanner Says:

    Our subconsious does not know positive from negative. I need to instill positive, uplifting programing to negate the old programing that has been sabotaging my success..Using ten power will help me do this. Can be used in any application, like EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), by tapping ten times on a power point to increase the effectiveness ten fold.

  454. Carol Omer Says:
