Overview
This is the second edition of the powerful peak evolution paradigm shift. It is the means to leave a lifetime legacy more profound, more meaningful, more impactful, and more valuable to world progress than you thought yourself capable of contributing.
Peak Evolution offers a breakthrough new approach to achieving the most evolved states known to mankind. It is a means to have right now the advanced functionality of the future human which will not be prevalent for generations. Peak Evolution serves as an explanation and beacon for people who have spontaneously begun to evolve ahead of the general population, and a road map for those who wish to proactively speed evolution.
Peak Evolution is a how-to book for achieving beyond your innate potential by harnessing natural evolutionary forces attempting to ensure the survival and peak performance of all living systems.
The multitude of systems inside of our bodies or outside of us in a biological ecosystem, for example, are both kept in balance by these natural evolutionary forces. It is therefore only logical to deduce that those same evolutionary forces are also acting upon us directly. Our cultures have simply interfered with our ability to comply with and capitalize on these forces.
Peak Evolution identifies ten signals of those powerful evolutionary forces operating in your life so you can harness that flow to function and achieve goals beyond your potential. Your capabilities are extended by the knowledge, intelligence, mechanisms, processes, and creativity of nature.
When you align your internal drives with nature's drives, you cannot help but shift into overdrive. You are perpetually pulled beyond your previous potential into a state of accelerating evolution or 'peak evolution'. This is how ordinary people have been capable of extraordinary achievements.

About the Author
Her maximizing methodology was first identified when Lauren interviewed 300 successful global executives in a compressed period of time as CEO of an executive recruiting firm.
As CEO of Frontiering, she perfected the protocol through executive coaching then executive career management and now through the co-creation of contexts customized to a client's biological strengths - new companies, projects, ventures, frontiers, or redesigned jobs through which the client may excel.

Chapter 1
The Naturality Paradigm
"All power is of one kind, a sharing of the nature of the world. The mind that is parallel
with the laws of nature will be in the current of events, and strong with their strength."
Emerson, "Power," The Conduct of Life
The intent of our work together will be to liberate human potential. Your potential. We will be using a breakthrough human development process. It is designed to take each one of us to the highest creative expression of our core being and then beyond it. This new growth science is based on the greatness I encountered within each individual allowed to express his or her natural identity in the most meaningful way. One does not need to be disciplined, controlled, ruled, or educated for this greatness to exist. One needs only to release it. When people are allowed to operate consistent with their natural design, magic happens. Extraordinary achievements. Extraordinary creations. Extraordinary human beings.
Civilization has persistently progressed towards the liberation of the individual. In the twentieth century, this has been evident in the successes of Mahatma Ghandi, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., and the Dalai Lama. The women’s movement and, in fact, the whole human rights movement, demonstrate the same trend. Trade sanctions against countries in which individuals are mistreated illustrate the gathering intolerance for those resisting the inevitable trend.
As society evolves, the rights of individuals and what is considered individual freedom will continue to expand. We made great strides in the last millennium to remove oppression and infringements to human freedom. However, in this millennium, we will proactively promote levels of human freedom hitherto not identified. We will see the human potential movement become the platform for the human rights movement in society and business.
All individuals will expect to live lives aligned with their natural identities. The opportunity to do work most expressive of that identity and one’s natural talents will be assumed. As a result, societies will emerge to support and promote individual freedom of this magnitude. And, if each of us around the world is free to be the person we are naturally, we will have world freedom. Individual freedom results in world freedom. World freedom propagates world peace. World peace means we will all have the safety to cultivate our personal creativity even more. Individuals will be in a position to have their strongest impact and make their greatest contribution to the world.
Many enlightened peacemakers have begun to focus on the growth of the individual as the means to spawn world freedom and world peace. The technologies presented in this book support their efforts. They promote the grassroots development of individuals aligned with their naturality and operating at their highest potential by using their greatest talents. The Peak Evolution technologies will contribute to the foundations for a new, more evolved civilization.
The rise of entrepreneurialism is evidence of this worldwide evolution. Increasingly, individuals invent companies which allow them to do their art, the work that is most expressive of their natural identity and talents. We think of the major corporations detrimentally for their downsizing programs. Whose life has not been affected directly or indirectly by the suffering of those individuals cast aside? However, this downsizing is the result of the inability of corporations to compete with individuals in entrepreneurial businesses. As this trend advances, large companies will become networks of entrepreneurs and small companies will link up for the same reason - to become networks of entrepreneurs. Welcome to the Age of the Individual.
Society will evolve to encourage each one of us to use our greatest talents to make our greatest contribution. For some, it will suit to congregate together in large companies in order to achieve more significant goals. Business will provide the forums for our personal evolution. Companies will offer contexts for creativity that will allow us to stretch and grow and thus to know ourselves and our potential. Business will benefit from the resulting creativity. Organization goals and personal goals will symbiotically be met by the opportunities for meaningful creativity.
The intent of Peak Evolution is the freeing of both human beings and human potential. Human potential goes far beyond recognized levels of peak performance. The Peak Evolution technologies will raise the bar on the potential for peak performance for individuals and the race. The result will be new, unexpected levels of freedom, functionality, human ingenuity, and personal achievement. What we currently consider "peak experience" doesn’t begin to describe what’s possible for us.
A PARADIGM SHIFT
How will we accomplish your extraordinary metamorphosis to full power as an evolved human being? We’re going to do it with a paradigm shift. A paradigm is the lens through which we see our world. They determine our attitudes and behavior. Paradigm shifts happen as a result of changes to the basic, underlying assumptions by which we’ve been living. They move us from one way of seeing the world to another. Because we see things differently, we think differently, feel differently, behave differently, and believe differently. Paradigm shifts can be instantaneous or progressive, but the result is always dramatic change.
Ptolemy, the great Egyptian astronomer, placed the earth at the center of the universe. When Copernicus made the sun the center, everything in astronomy and beyond needed to be reconnected in a different way. The shift to the new paradigm proposed in Peak Evolution will trigger reconnections in every part of your life. It will replace how most of us have been brought up to think the world functions. The trick to learning a new paradigm is to set aside your current worldview. It is unlikely that the new knowledge can be integrated into your existing model. Consider it an "either-or" situation. If you can do this, I believe you’ll be intrigued and enriched by the process of experimentation proposed.
With Peak Evolution, you can visit the new paradigm, explore its power, and use its tools. The people technologies will help you to make the transition so you can "test drive" the new paradigm. Unfortunately, you can’t bring things back to your old paradigm. They’ll have no power there. For most people, the old and the new paradigms are mutually exclusive. Therefore, ultimately, you’re going to have to choose between the two paradigms. Since a choice is inevitable, let me use this first chapter to lay some foundations for your journey, your experimentation, your evaluation, and your final selection of the ideal paradigm for you.
