Anna Wise
In her book The High-Performance Mind, Anna Wise described awakened individuals as high achievers who often excel at the top of their fields.
These enthusiastic, successful people experience life as a continuous stream of "ah-ha" moments, filled with creative insights, joy, and peak experiences of happiness.
They are not just successful outwardly — they are true masters of their minds and lives.
What Is Mastery?
According to Anna Wise, mastery is the ability to access the ideal state of consciousness for any given moment in order to achieve a specific goal.
Rather than being trapped in one mode of thinking or feeling, masters are flexible, responsive, and attuned to their inner resources.
How Do You Attain Mastery?
Mastery is a two-step process:
-
First, by developing the Awakened Mind brainwave pattern — a harmonious blend of conscious thinking, creativity, deep intuition, and spiritual connection.
-
Second, by using this awakened awareness to pursue personal and spiritual transformation.
Through continued growth, the brain/mind naturally expands into higher patterns of consciousness:
-
The Evolved Mind pattern, characterized by whole-brain synchrony, bliss, unity, illumination, and spiritual ecstasy.
-
The Superconscious Mind, reflected in amplified gamma frequencies, supporting attentional awareness, compassion, transcendence, and mystical connection.
-
The Universal (Cosmic) Consciousness, where gamma frequencies deepen into a unified, cosmic awareness.
Living a Joyful, Self-Actualized Life
Regardless of spiritual background (or none at all), awakened individuals are deeply committed to conscious evolution.
They engage in a simple, life-enhancing process:
quieting the mind, turning inward, and retrieving insights that transform obstacles into opportunities for growth.
The result?
A life that is joyful, fulfilled, creative, self-actualized, and abundant.
