Is there really a “secret”?
Does it REALLY Work?
The answer will surprise you …
With the publication of The MetaValues Breakthrough, Larry Mullins sweeps aside the idea that Self-Actualization is a process for the favored few. In this remarkable book Larry integrates Maslow’s concepts with the latest advancements and has created, according to one psychologist, “the most advanced framework ever written for achieving lasting peace, joy, and optimum actualization of potential.”
The MetaValues Breakthrough is not science …
The MetaValues Breakthrough is not Religion …
The MetaValues Breakthrough is not Philosophy …
The MetaValues Breakthrough is not “new age” …
The MetaValues Breakthrough is rather a synthesis of the most powerful ideas of science, religion and philosophy.
You have, right now, access to exactly the same core of power, energy, and inspiration that sustains the top one percent of achievers, the fortunate few, the Self-Actualizers. Starting today you can set into motion the process for creating a new life based upon all that is True, Beautiful and Good. To learn more watch the free videos at www.MetaValues.net .

Several months ago Professor Darrin M. McMahon of Florida State University reviewed a remarkable book in the Wall Street Journal. The slim book, “The Nobility of Spirit … A Forgotten Ideal,” was written by Rob Riemen. It is one of those rare works that compel several readings. The philosophy of this book resonates beautifully with “The MetaValues Breakthrough.” Dr. McMahon quoted Riemen as follows:
“There can be no civilization without the realization that human beings have a double nature. They have a physical, earthly existence but are distinguished from other animals by also having a spiritual being and by knowing the world of ideas.”
McMahon added this comment:
“It is the role of thinkers and writers, [Riemen] believes, to serve as guardians of our spiritual nature and as custodians of timeless values, cultivating ‘truth, goodness, and beauty’ as well as ‘freedom and justice, love and charity.’ Therein lies the essence of human dignity and human freedom – the source of the spirit’s nobility.”

Over the years, I have discovered that modern minds have trouble applying the classical terms of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness to the hard practicalities of life. In order to make these ideas more accessible, I have chosen to supplement them with the reasonably parallel—and more action-related—terms Integrity, Excellence, and Caring. While we cannot see or examine a MetaValue, we can detect its presence and influence in the same way Dr. Maslow did. When he observed a Self-Actualizer living a life of remarkable Integrity, he deducted that the MetaValue of Truth was influencing that life. When he detected Excellence, he concluded that this was an expression of the MetaValue of Beauty. A Caring individual is one expressing the MetaValue of Goodness. The terms Integrity, Excellence, and Caring represent the MetaValues of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness made visible through action.
MetaValues are not something someone created; they are realities that were discovered. The best evidence for this is the fact that all normal people, regardless of race, religion, or culture, share and recognize MetaValues on some level. I learned that even the most materialistic business people, perplexed by the challenge of applying MetaValues to their work, readily respond when asked, “Would you hire an associate you knew to be lacking in Integrity? How about one who was uncaring and indifferent about his fellow workers, customers, and the community in general? Would you want to employ people who could not be motivated to strive for high levels of Excellence in their work?” The answers to these questions are so obvious because MetaValues are universal realities that transcend cultures and the barriers between science, philosophy, and religion.

Most people have been conditioned to believe that values are purely humanly-contrived ideas, a kind of furniture for the mind. When Abraham Maslow announced that he had discovered MetaValues operating as active agents influencing the behavior of every self-actualizing person he studied, his colleagues were shocked. Maslow wrote, “[MetaValues] are perceived, not invented … They exist beyond the life of the individual. They can be conceived to be a kind of perfection. They could conceivably satisfy the human longing for certainty.”
Maslow’s ideas about values are probably very far from what you may have read or heard. The common claim is, “My values are mine and yours are yours.” This can be accurate enough when applied to our tastes for things such as clothing, music, and food, but it is not valid at all when applied to the cardinal issues of Truth and Integrity. You may have come to believe that values are merely admonitions designed by society to keep you in line—various do’s and don’ts that operate as reins to hold you back and channel your behavior. Dr. Maslow acknowledged the nature of these society-contrived values, and he determined that they tend to be imposed from the outside. However, as we mature into Self-Actualizers, we begin to resist these intrusive, coerced values. MetaValues then awaken from somewhere inside and begin to stir into action. Unlike the values of childhood that sometimes served as reins to retard and control us, MetaValues are more like a team of powerful horses that pull us along toward uncharted possibilities.

Other people want what we all want. All other people want is to be loved. If love is too strong a word for you, consider respect. People are starved for respect. We all hunger for respect. We all need self-respect. Impregnable self-respect is the first requisite toward self-empowerment. It is the gift that unlocks our human will and energizes our lives. Without authentic self-respect, inner decay sets in. But self-respect cannot maintain itself: authentic self-respect is modulated with micrometer-like precision by the degree of respect we hold for other people. When you are confronted with behavior that is inappropriate and ugly, see the behavior for what it usually is: driven by a hunger for respect. Do not excuse or enable inappropriate and immature behavior, but consider it from the larger perspective and this will help you deal with it without being either provoked or intimidated.

The concept Maslow called his most important finding, MetaValues (or what he designated as Being values), has been neglected and is in danger of being lost. MetaValues are inner resources available to everyone. They change lives. They drive and inspire the top one percent of the world’s achievers, people Dr. Maslow designated as Self-Actualizers. MetaValues will one day lead to an explosion of human potential that will revolutionize the world we live in. This pronouncement may seem to some to be grandiose. It did not originate with me, it originated with Abraham Maslow. I believe he was right. Dr. Maslow was convinced—as I am—that when that day comes, MetaValues will foster “A new image of man, a new image of society, a new image of nature, a new philosophy of science, a new economics, a new everything…” For more information and to view free videos, go to www.metavalues.net .
