Inner Work and Charisma

In the last few posts (here and here), we explored the importance of inner work and awareness: what they really are, and just as importantly, what they are not. We looked at why it’s so easy to get stuck in overthinking or surface-level introspection, and how real...

The mental phase of personal magnetism

William Walker Atkinson wrote a sentence that’s worth slowing down and unpacking: "The mental phase of personal magnetism depends upon two coordinated manifestations of mental power, as follows: (1) the holding of certain mental states until the mental atmosphere...

The bad shortcut

This week, we’ve been talking about energy density — that grounded, magnetic presence you can feel when someone truly shows up. It’s not about charm or posture. It’s deeper than that since it comes from being clear, honest, and aligned with a real sense of purpose. We...

The shortcut to energy density

On our last email, we talked about energy density — the weight your magnetism carries — and how it's linked to having a clear purpose or desire. That kind of clarity doesn’t come out of nowhere since it takes some internal alignment. You need to feel whole, like...

The density of your energy

Here's an interesting question from a student: "In certain individuals the density of sexual magnetism is pretty strong, they instantly trigger a reaction in the people that came in contact with them. That's especially true for women, so I was wondering, is it...

The non-magnetic man

Here's an interesting quote by Hector Durville: "The non-magnetic man irritates you. If you are hard to deal with, he worsens your harshness and ill-temper; if you are in low spirits, he darkens your horizons even more; if you feel unhappy, his presence seems to weigh...

The silent killer of magnetism

In the last email, we talked about how your natural magnetism can fade if you don’t take care of it. And honestly, it’s easier to lose than most people think. The tricky part is that it usually doesn’t vanish overnight. There’s rarely a single moment where you can...

The lost natural magnetism

Most of us go through life without realizing how much of our natural magnetism we’ve lost — or even that we had it in the first place. But if there’s one thing I’ve noticed from working with dozens, maybe hundreds of people, it’s this: we’re often much more magnetic...

Your Personal Atmosphere

Here's an interesting quote by William Walker Atkinson: "It is a fact known to all students of the subject that the character of the mental atmosphere of any individual depends entirely upon the character of the mental states held by him. The mental atmosphere of the...
